Re: new Steel Beasts Pro PE video...
well it's a sim alright... but for the hardcore...
It's the same one the Army uses for it's training, but a "Personal Edition"... Which means that it simulates armor warfare well and very detailed, but it doesn't have all the bells and whistles of a computer game... and it cost 125 bucks when it finally is released in a month or so... so it's really for the hardcore simmer... it's purpose is for soldiers who are tankers to practice and learn at home on there own PC... there will be a commercial release of the sim called "Steel Beasts 2" near the end of 2006. which will be regular game priced. www.esims.com www.stealbeasts.com |

Re: new Steel Beasts Pro PE video...
I saw the demo and was not very impressed but I guess they are not looking for a pretty game.
I remember I did a google search once for tank sims and I downloaded a demo that was from a Russian company who was developing it. Everything though was in Russian, key commands, movement controls, etc. It was awesome though, so detailed it would make you sick, physics, movement, everything was paintstakingly recreated.

Re: new Steel Beasts Pro PE video...
Your probably talking about T72: Balkans on Fire, which is out now, and since the patch alot better of a game, but nothing near perfect.... you can get it online at www.battlefront.com
You probably saw Steel Beast 1 (which was released about 3 or 4 yrs ago), it wasn't pretty but an incredible hardcore following... Steel Beasts Professional (personal edition) is the latest, and due out in/around Jan... only for the real tanker who wants to learn and practice on his own, or the hardcorest of armor sim fans... 4 new video clips in this pack... remember this game is a TRUE simulation, not a computer game. http://www.magnumland.com/Downloads/...PE%20clips.zip |

Re: new Steel Beasts Pro PE video...
I hope you guys are understanding me... SB Pro PE, which comes out any day now is NOT a computer game... it is a true simulation of tank warfare... it is the same computer program you see real world tankers using in there simulators on army bases... as seen on the military channel... but this PE (personal edition) is made and released for tankers to buy a copy (125 US bucks) and train at home on there personal PC.
There won't be a hugh following for this simulation in the "gaming community", because of it's complexity, price, and purpose. again, this is NOT a PC game that you might be thinking of. NOW... saying that... it does have 8 player MP (co-op) each controlling there own tank in a tank platoon, it does PLAY like a computer game, you get the complete editor tools to make any missions you want. and it will be supported for years to come with free add-ons and updates, improving it constantly. in other news: There will be a Steel Beasts 2, computer game release of this simulation in 2007... it will be dumbed down, have pretty graphics, all the bells and whistles, and be a fun armor combat GAME. and finally: If you do decided to throw away 125 bucks on this simulation, there will be a small following, but there will be enough of a following over at SimHQ (www.simhq.com), including myself, to have a few co-op games once it's learned... most of us will be using my personal teamspeak server to play together at www.magnumland.com and for the few diegards who get it they will be cranking out real good missions and mods for it, like they did with SB1. that is all, enjoy your day. ![]() |

Re: new Steel Beasts Pro PE video...
Oh, I know it's not a game in any sense. I'm getting both (PE and the game when that comes out)
Though, with the PE version.. I might not have to pay that much to try it if you know what I mean. I won't even get into that, though.

Re: new Steel Beasts Pro PE video...
Another great video released... hellfire pass... 15 MINUTES LONG! lol
I had to wait and get another cup of coffee before viewing... but great video, well worth it. If your still thinking about getting SB Pro PE... this video pretty much shows you what is in the sim including the AAR features. (I assume, maybe theres more, lol) http://www.steelbeasts.com/ |
