WWII Battle Tanks: T-34 vs Tiger

"WWII Battle Tanks: T-34 vs. Tiger" tells the story of the great triumph of the Soviet Army during the summer campaign of 1944. The Soviet Army had won the battle near Kursk, and since that day, German tank forces were retreating. "Operation Bagration" in 1944 was one of the most significant Russian campaigns during the struggle of Soviet and German tanks in Belorussia.

The player will be able to experience "Operation Bagration" in two playable campaigns -- a Russian campaign and a German campaign, where he can take control over the Russian T-34 or, respectively, the German Tiger.

The player will be fighting in realistic locations, modeled after the Belorussian landscape of the early 20th century, recreated from hundreds of reference photos and maps. Additionally, the game will feature a realistic combat environment, including infantry, cars, armored personnel-carriers, motorcycles, artillery, aircraft.

The most detailed technical documents available were used to model realistic physics and tank behavior. To model realistic tank movements, the propulsion systems, transmissions and gear-ratios, tank masses, friction and suspensions were taken into consideration. For a realistic gunnery model, the mass of the shell, gravity, and the initial speed of the various ammunition types, as well as the various gunner's sights available, were taken into consideration.

Realistic effects, such as explosions, smoke, destruction of vehicles and buildings are modeled. Tanks (and other objects) can be shot or rammed, displaying different levels of damage. The player can observe the battlefield from both realistically modeled 3D or virtual stations, as well as from third person views and various camera angles.

Napalm Engine technology allows for stunning graphics effects, such as dynamic shadows, self shading, bump mapping, specular maps, glow and bloom effects. New technologies used make it possible to stretch the map-size to over 40 square kilometers and set up thousands of trees of the highest level of detail.

Key features:

• Storyline based on the Soviet Army "Bagration" operation in Belorussia in 1944;

@quepacho64 Ever been in a T-34? I wouldnt call it a nice tank. It is mostly all manual control (including turret!), rough, designed for the crews to die before the tank, unrealiable, thinly armoured, undergunned. The guns were so weak, that they would actualy ram the enemy rather than shoot, because thats all the chance they had.

The only nice part about them is the sheer numbers made (around 100k I think). They outnumbered the enemy, and thats how they could win.

@crazysajko KV: 76mm |(low velocity). KV-2: 152mm (low velocity), or 107mm (high velocity)

[dividednation44]

@crazysajko correction: 75-80mm armor and 76mm F-34, an inaccurate and weak sewer pipe, hammer cranked suspension, ultra slow, and old outdated 12-cylinder diesel model V-2.

loltank, even for inantry support this thing was way too big and overkill

[crazysajko]

@dividednation44 ur wrong. KV had 90mm armor and 76.2mm cannon

lol, both tanks were nice, but tiger was simply slightly better

[ThePribina]

@dividednation44 you have truth "LATER" !!!

[dividednation44]

@ThePribina yeah? bullshit. in the 1940's u may be right that panzer 3s and 2s cant kill a KV obviously thats not something to brag about as they were infantry tanks you DUMBASS. the panzer 4 wieled a 75mm gun with over 50mm armor and later increased to 80mm protection (more then your trashy KV had) and the PzIII was later armed with a 50mm gun and armored with 70mm protection making it one of the few light tanks in existence that had a chance to kill bigger tanks. u fail, one again

@dividednation44

ONE "primitive" KV in 1941 stopped near Dubno and keep ALL german panzer division 2 days !!! German panzer II and III had any chance penetrate his armor also from 3meters not ! Even not exist antitank gun which could destroy him.

KV had 75mm pipe but german tanks in the time 30 and max 40mm guns!

The T34 (1941) had 45mm armor bud german panzers had maximally 20mm!!!

It was hard surprise for nazi tank units,this is main reason why arose Tiger and later Panther the T34 copy!
