I can't wait for large scale tank battles in this game.

Ah, there was a thread of this after all. Considering buying this but I want to see a few reviews and user opinions about this. Couple of gameplay videos didn't convince me, unfortunately.

The thing that worries me the most is that it is based on the ArmA 2 engine.

Oh it is highly moddable, but the engine isnt exactly renowned for it's ability to
handle vehicles that well.

Theyve rewritten the arma2 engine so tanks aren't just hopping based any more. That damage models is aparently very similar to wwiionline with armor thinkness, round type, angle of impact etc being modelled for a very realistic tanking experience. The devs have implemented a tank only mode too! I think I will be purchasing this and playing over wwiionline where the armor game has been practically killed off!

Also with suitable missions this can be considered to be a tank sim due to the level of realism! Also looking forward to some proper multi crewing!
