You are kidding, right?

MOH graphics are light years ahead of OPF in quality... but OFP is modeling a completely different world, so they have to be.  OFP is great at what it does, but for pure eye candy, the Quake III engine won't be beat until the new Unreal 2 engine comes out.

Anyone of the russian speakers can tell us more about the thing?


 It just means that while you are sitting in your little simulated tank, the strategy on a grand scale is simulated on the background to provide you with environment and things to do and look at - as opposite to scripted missions.

 Real-time strategy is nothing new - Falcon4 is a great example.

[bad russian translations removed, I saw the english link]

I´m still seeing more a "3d Close Combat" (which I will run to buy) than a "Panzer Elite meets Falcon IV" (which I would run to buy)


Thinking of it now, it would be cool a MMP game that could be played both ways, some people acting as commanders clicking here and there on little tanks with their mice à la close combat, and cursing the real people busy inside the thanks struggling to count the turns it takes to crank around a damaged powerless Tiger turret (yes, I think Oleg would get to model accurately that). That could solve the "WWIIOL anarchy".

Has anyone here played steel beasts?  Not WWII, but I hear it is good.
