How realistic is this game

[Chrypt22]

I personally love RTS. Am a huge Warno fan, looking forward to Broken Arrow. I keep reading about realism and more about small unit engagements which seems awesome.

How realistic are we talking? Am I going to have to have the soldiers drink water, eat, and manually click for every wounded soldier - or is it a matter of angles / cover / armor pen / fog of war.

it's a tactical level RTS with some realistic elements like armour penetration and ammunition counts, I heard they've also added some kind of suppression system for infantry. it's still an RTS though, not a simulation

Yes, you are right, this is RTS, but it is quite realistic by my opinion.. infantry can die from 1 bullet, tanks are easy to destroy. This game is from developers who made terminator RTS.

Terminator: Dark Fate - Defiance devs and mow2 devs are not the same, nor do they work in the same company.

That is what I was assuming... as far as the realism with pen, suppression, supply it seems similar in that regard only to warno (I know the game overall is much different).

Thanks

Its very tactical. The player has to make good use of equipment and unit abilities. The graphics are gritty. The game mechanics are based on historical facts.

But it's not realistic. Everything is too fast like in the movies and the engagement distances are shortened to fit on the screen. It's an arcade game not a simulation.

Looks like an arcade game.

I think it will be a lot of fun but, assuming you're a WW2 history/combat buff, you likely already know that these games aren't super-realistic.

Compared to the competition, like Company of Heroes, Men of War is (or was) pure realism 😉 the beta of MoW 2 though felt a bit less realistic than Gates of Hell Ostfront for example. Ammunition that’s spent, ammunition types, armor penetration, the angle of the hit (at least I think so), destroyable environment that has impact on the units (e.g. collapsing house parts will hit and kill infantry) or running over infantry with a tank all make the game way more realistic compared to CoH even though it is still not a realism simulation ofc.

I also fancy the frontline mode of MoW 2, that’s really nice and dynamic.
