I bought this game 3 days ago and I’m totally hooked. It’s still in early access alpha, though.
This is my totally made up WW2 Japanese light howitzer, built from scratch!

While it does indeed kind of smell like an ad, keep in mind this is not some triple-A bullshit. It’s made by a single dev and has a heavily involved community on reddit and discord where competitions are hosted and suggestions are made. Regardless of tankies reputation, that kind of behaviour is not tolerated in either of those communities. I’ve been playing it on and off and have over 500 hours into it by now. It is a very niche game, but for those that like tanks and military games in general, it is a real gem.
Hmm, what do you mean when a tank game has a tankies reputation?
Does it have MP? Or is it SP vs bots?
It is currently singleplayer vs bots and the scenarios are admittedly limited. However, again, single dev (at the moment). Multiplayer is on the roadmap far in the future and will likely not really be pvp as that introduces challenges for balancing.
For now though, the designer is very free in what it lets you do for the most part and has a lot of options.
If you’re on the fence, I would recommend looking up some videos on youtube that showcase the game’s capabilities. Make sure to pick a decently recent one (ergo past half year or so).
This whole thread smells like an ad.
It makes me want to throw some Totino’s Pizza Rolls into my Cuisinart Basket Air Frier and play some Nintendo Switch while sipping on a Mountain Dew.
Did you use Code:lemmy25 for a discount fellow internet person?
It’s not a game for everyone, but it is a lot of fun (if you enjoy building a tank). Part of why I really like it is there’s no real pve tank games right now and this is the closest offering. I’d fuckin kill for Warthunder-but-open-world. Or even mission based. This scratches part of that itch.
Looks like a great opportunity for non credibility.
I’ve played it a lot, and I can confirm that it has loads of NCD potential
PS: not an ad, just wanted to share this cool niche game that I discovered
Very cool. Can you drive and fight with them as well?
Yup! You can make custom camos, custom decals, place crew members (in beta version), and fight in custom battles or missions. Some communities even have fun competitions.
fuck yes
I’d give anything to design my own tanks for Hell Let Loose and then crew it with my buddies.
Makes me think of an Ikv 65.

I feel like someone in this thread should be calling someone else a tankie, even if only for the meme of it.
