Cut / Uncut - question
Hey Guys ( and Ladys ).
I read that here is a Cut and Uncut Version.
Is this true?
And when yes - is here a way that i can get a Uncut Version in Germany?
( i am old enough and i want a historical ww2 Game - and not a cut Version )
Or is here a regio/geo Lock for the German People? ;((

There is no cut version as far as I'm aware though I'm not in Germany. The easiest way to get this answer is for someone in Germany to look at the belt buckle. If I recall it wasn't censored a while back.

All versions are censored because they wished to have 1 version for all countries. But they got denied by the USK and now I'm not sure if they are waiting to retry and appeal it or if they will make 2 separate versions.

Alot of the key selling sites sell cut & uncut versions.

But, the devs have said that game is only one version. So, i don't know what the deal is there.
Might just be a gimmick by the sites to get a few extra Euros. But, luckily. I don't have to take the risk buying one and risking it not working.

Purchasing it through steam is easier/safer, and this weekend shouldn't be that different in cost with the sale.

really? Ok. But i read that here are ingame SS Units / Squads / Forces.
And in Germany is normaly stuff like this "censored/cut/removed".
That why i ask - because i want a Uncut Version - historical ww2 Game.


"or if they will make 2 separate versions." < when they do this - then i will get the Cut one.

But then i will buy / gift a UK / US Version - and when they do this Way - then i still have the Uncut one. Or will they add a Regio / Geo Lock? ( that will be bad then )
i google a bit and found this information here
https://steamcommunity.com/app/736220/discussions/0/1696046342862579046/

and like Andy say - some Key Sellers really sell a uncut / cut Version.
And in this Steam Thread the Dev. speak about censorship ( cut / uncut Version ) - for Germany.
I am from Germany to - so it will be really nice to know if we get a Cut / Uncut Version.
And here on the Steam Store Page i can see a SS Rank Sign on the Tanker Screenshot.
And yes i can understand how you mean this CaptainRansom. I want a historical ww2 Game to.
So when i play as a Wehrmacht or SS Soldier or Tank Driver. Then i want look like one.


By the way - we have new Laws in Germany - that Symbols ( like the SS one ) is allowed in Games like in Movies/Tv Shows.

Currently all versions of the game is the cut version with censored imagery. This is because we didn't get the required approval from the USK which we need in order to show the symbols in Germany.

We'll likely be contacting the USK again in the future to retry for an approval. Until then we likely won't do an uncut version.

Is there still a cut and uncut version of the game? I'm inclined buying the game, but I don't want to risk buying the 'cut' version by accident if there is an 'uncut' version somewhere else. I am not from Germany.

Thanks for your quick reply, will there ever be an 'uncut' version and will players from most countries be eligible to switch? A large part of the game takes place in my own country so I would really prefer an uncut version.

There is no official uncut version. Everyone has the same game. I am from Germany so let me answer your main question: there are no swastikas and no SS-symbols. The 9. SS has Kragenspiegel but they do not show their insignia. It is just black. There is the Reichsadler on the uniforms but without a swastika. Instead of it there is a german cross. When you play Post Scriptum you will not miss symbols like a swastika or SS. They are not needed. Ofc you have the well known Andreaskreuz for example on many german tanks like it used to be in the past. The units still look very historical.

Thanks! I will probably purchase the game then.

Well, as long as they haven't implemented scottish units to the game it's certainly not the Andreaskreuz which resembles more of an "X" or BDSM scenery :D, it's the usual, "official" and not forbidden Balkenkreuz "+". But I might be wrong as I played the game nearly one year ago.

Against the invading Allied forces, I think? Welcome then :).

btw its still not possible to activate EU or ROW or Supporter Edition Keys in Germany. When all Versions are cut, why still restrictions?
Will gift my supporter key someone else and will not buy this game again. dont need region locks.

There is no longer any "uncut" version of this game.
