Authentic and enjoyable, best tank sim for years ! December 12, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Coming to the end of the first of the three campaigns I have found myself captivated by the authenticity and action in Steel Fury that gets more enjoyable as time goes on. I had been disappointed by some recent tank sim's so was wary about buying this. Also Tiger v T34 by the same company has had only average ratings. This game hits the spot. My score reflects a very good game spoiled by a few minor issues. Fun factor loses out by the lack of role play for your crew, there is none as each mission starts a new, the only penalty for failure being you can't move on to later missions. Also the lack of an in game status screen to check on tank and crew status, but a minor annoyance all the same. As for my overall rating again loses slightly because of a few bugs in the tutorials. Also if you take over as driver a bug makes it difficult to get the AI to drive again. It should be noted this is single player only. An unofficial patch on the games forum solves a few other minor issues and is highly recommended. These issues aside the game is a very impressive and enjoyable combat sim. The missions get more intense and sound and look great using my Creative Fatality Headset and Geforce 8800 GT card. There is a moderate learning curve but the controls are sensible and well laid out. The 38 page manual is reasonable and enjoyment will benefit from reading some parts, mainly controls and a knowledge of the different shells the tanks used, fully simulated in this fine game. This is the best tank sim for many years and will not disappoint.
