Well, well, well. This came out of nowhere. It looks interesting in scope if nothing else, compared to stuff like Wargame, Broken Arrow, Regiments, and all that. It'll probably be shit but it might be worth watching.

>Play of Battle SA
its a scam

>>2169832 (OP)
Oh hey, I played this like 10 years ago! It's called wargame: airland battle.

>>2169832 (OP)
not a fan of AI generetated stuff desu

>play of battle

That ESL name should be enough of a tell that the game is shit and not even worth looking at.

whats with te indians shitting on every new game

>created by poles
enjoy russia being nerfed to the oblivion

>>2170858
i hope they will put donkeys and chechen barrier troops for RUS deck

>>2170725
what's with every new game being an uninspired 1:1 clone of games made 10-20 years ago? Do something new or get shit on.

>>2170889
I don't trust this random polish game to be particularly good either, but what exactly is it a clone of?

>>2170913
nta, but it looks clearly like a broken arrow,/warno clone with some wider scope for geopolitics (you get hit with an X event and you can choose to escalate or deny it)

>>2170914
It seems to have more strategic/geopolitical stuff to it compared to warno/BA.
>research tree
>no provinces
>ability to produce equipment
>etc.
Which means >>2170889 is wrong because they are in fact doing something different.

Demo came out today. Haven't had time to try it.

>>2170914
>a broken arrow,/warno clone
It's a Regiments clone, if anything. It has to have multiplayer to be comparable to BA/Warno.

>>2170554
The AI Lavrov actually works very well, but for some reason the AI dude you see first is fucking awful and sounds like a generic TikTok AI voice.

I don't mind them using AI for real world people, I don't think they can get Trump and Putin to act for their FMVs, but if it's just random fictional characters just get some asshole off the street or, if he's an important part, your local theatre.

>>2169832 (OP)
Is there a campaign map to interact with other factions like in Total War or HoI4?

>IT'S A CLONE OF X, Y, Z, W, J, AND I
You people are fucking retarded.
>>2170858
Only briefly played the demo but it seemed like you can already chihuahuamaxx by antagonizing Russia with the assumption that the US will come and save you.

>>2171761
>chihuahuamaxx by antagonizing
I spat my drink. You're funny, anon.

>>2171761
why are we calling former soviet satellites chihuahuas when russia cant take a ukrainian village for half a decade? And their medvediev jew spokesperson keeps chihuahamaxxing with le nukes that dont work and le red lines that dont exist? Why do russians keep accusing everyone of their own crimes? Its fucking mental how widespread this behavior is

>>2170858
I mean the basic premise of the demo is Russia actually clapping Ukraine in two weeks and invading Poland before the end of 2022. Also you get to blow up Nordstream to actually get Germans to support you, which is pretty funny.
It might also be just because there's only a very small selection of units but the Polish Patrias get fucking anihiliated by Russians rolling in with BMP-3s and while you have access to better vehicles through the whole foreign support system the PT-91s you're making are vastly inferior to T-90s especially against infantry and ATGMs.
But yeah, it feels like the gameplay systems are constructed from Unity asset store buildings blocks, models aren't particularly good looking and it's absolutely not close to any sort of realistic scale so your vehicles move very slowly and have very low viewing ranges compared to how big everything is. The very heavy use of AI slop in place of art assets is worrying too.

>>2172344
Extremely dissapointed that the RTS layer isn't actually every battle, just a couple of designed missions that you might not even actually get depending on if you strayed from the scenario too much.
However, I am actually extremely pleasantly surprised that the maps for the scenarios are actually pretty much 1:1 to real life including custom assets. This let me figure out that average maximum range for small arms is about 300 meters, 500 for heavy machineguns and ATGMs and about 800 for tank cannons and mortars.
Not great.

It's a scam.
The guy running the show is a notorious armchair theorist that has had his doctorate revoked because of plagiarism. He's been scamming in Poland for decades and now wants to scam foreigners too.

>>2172086
back to /uhg/ or /k/ with you.

>>2170554
>>2171722
Disclaimer on the store page says that the bulk of the AI stuff is just a placeholder. Whether or not that will end up being true is yet to be seen, but pessimism would be justified imo.

>>2172411
He had the revocation revoked. For formal errors and he's still an idiot but I arrive before anybody else tries to lecture you

>>2172086
>absolutely seething
Case in point lmao

>>2172780
case in point for what? Russia not winning the war for half a decade?

>>2173085
the chihuahua represents the average butthurt belter, aka (you). Completely powerless to defend itself it relies on forum posts and begging the US for aid.

>>2173100
please point out where anyone other than (you) said anything about US. It's a vatnigger obsession and a rabid inferiority complex

>>2173100
>Completely powerless to defend itself it relies on forum posts and begging the US for aid.
Are the US in the room with us right now?

>>2173142
Yes, I am here. I am not saving you from Russia, you made this problem yourselves.

Threads for this game will be (and already are) absolutely awful.

>>2173183
Russia here. Too busy having gay sex with my soldiers to invade, sorry.

>>2173188
The fate of all games with modern/current conflicts.

>>2173191
Understandable, we have the same problem too.

>>2170889
>what's with every new game being an uninspired 1:1 clone of games made 10-20 years ago?
unironically spenglermodo predicted all of this

>>2173191
I think you're actually polish or a baltic state "person" actually.

>>2173345
I don't think about you at all

you just did by replying to me thoughever

I played the demo and it was incredibly jank. The most notable issue was infantry getting stuck trying to enter a building and running into a wall infinitely until you manually pathed them towards a door.

>>2170889
Old games were better than what modern devs can think up unironically. To the point that remakes are often straight up worse, except maybe graphically

I couldnt work out how to change what equipment my regiment was actually using. I could only fill the fucking things with t-72s despite having tons of other shit.

You'd have to be legit retarded to have hope for this

Probably skip cause low quality, but this gameplay is something I always wanted.
