Could you confirm "Steel Armor: Blaze of War" English version is out as digital download?

If so I will buy it right now. I prefer modern tanks over World War II ones. I think it would be a good idea for Graviteam to think about payware mods or next tank-sim featuring modern tanks like M1A2 Abrams, Challenger-2, Leclerc, Leopard-2A6, T-64BM, T-84, T-90. I know modeling today's tanks electronics, fire control systems, thermal vision, advanced armor and so on is a challenge but you guys are on a right track to overcome monopoly of Steel Beast Pro overpriced oldie!

Yes there are many battles and reading the blurb they are dynamic. So every game should be different.

I have it and enjoy it though it has a few wrinkles, the most annoying is the AI always see you hiding in trees etc and the ai driver loves to turn around to retreat.

That said, a good game and well worth playing if SP is you're only interest, there is no mp and mp is of low importance it seems as Andrey (dev) has said on Simhq

Well in TvsT the AI seems to have X ray eyes as well.I think thye are prerparing a patch to take care of that.That being said, from what I read in SABoW the AI is fairly good and you have a battle generator which can partly make up for lack of MP.Graviteam may eventually make an MP patch but it's not their priority simply because MP demands a lot of online support which as a small outfit they are unable to give...

Hi frinik,

True though we have fixed that issue this week

As for the mp in SA, I am sure the sales that MP would generate for Graviteam they would be able to employ someone full time to do just mp.

True enough Murkz but like many people in the former S.U. they tend to be conservative and they are still mentally catering to their Eastern European customers.Graviteam still hasn't entirely accepted the fact that it's in the West that their future is being played( no pun intended...) and in the West MP rules( not for me but for most gamers I guess).

I really have to try MP in TvsT your mod makes me salivate....
