One
of the oldest scene groups Fairlight released a cracked version of
Steel Fury Kharkov 1942, a World War 2 tank simulator. Developed by
Discus Games and published by Lighthouse Interactive
A WWII tank sim based on the little-known offensive operation events
conducted by the Red Army from May 12 to 28, 1942. In the course of
German counterattack, begun May 17, 1942, three Soviet Armies were
surrounded and forced through fierce fighting to leave from the “meat
grinder” of the “Barvenkovskiy Kotel”. In this entire devil’s sabbath
of the war horror the player will have only one human desire - to
SURVIVE!!!
The tanks and their crews, represented with the maximum historical
authenticity, are the central elements of the game. Entertainment and
scale battles with the participation of all possible troops are joined
into three campaigns perfectly focused on the events of those days.
Each of the campaigns gives the specific tank, which has its special
features of control, behavior while under power and in combat. The
player will be introduced to the special features of conducting tank
combat. Its rules are simple: do not turn to the enemy with your board,
actively maneuver, shoot earlier and be more precise than enemy.
Game features:
- REALISTIC PHYSICS - With the simulation of game world the precise
calculation of ballistics and visibility is used. In the game the
realistic model of the collisions of technology with the surrounding
objects, the houses, the trees and another technology is present. All
objects are destroyed and are deformed. For the technology, both under
control of player and under control of the AI is simulated real physics
of motion.
- SIMULATION OF ENVIRONMENT - In order to draw nearer virtual world
to the real one contemporary graphic technologies, such are used as:
the dynamic illumination, which makes it possible to transmit the
change of the time of day and to recreate night missions;
specials-effect for the recreation of different weather conditions; the
systems of particles, which make it possible to simulate realistic
smoke effects, aqueous effects or flying lumps of the ground.
- DESTRUCTIBLE OBJECTS - Everything, which will be encountered on the
way of tank or projectile, can be destroyed, without exceptions. The
landscape being deformed makes it possible to create new landscapes and
different ground constructions.
- EDITING / MODIFICATION UTILITIES - Game gives the player the
possibility for the creation of his own modifications. Convenient
editors will make it possible to add new vehicles and weapons.
- TUNING SUPPORT AND TANK CONTROL CUSTOMIZATION - In the game player
level can adjust the complexity of management of vehicles and military
troops, so the gradual complication of game from one mission to another
due to the appearance of new types of vehicles and more complex tasks
and play ranges. The player could rapidly be pulled in the play process
and obtain the maximum of pleasure that exists based on training
missions.
- HISTORICAL AUTHENTICITY - Play missions are based at the events of
that time and recreated with the archive and photo documents, just as
combat ranges. For the action, to player is accessible to large spaces,
unconfined by mountains, by forests or by other obstacles. This makes
it possible to select ones own path of motions and tactics of waging of
war at its discretion.
