Computer Games - There are a ton of WWII strategy games out there and more are coming. Why will Officers stand out from the crowd?

Game Factory Interactive - From what we've seen so far, most WW2 strategy games in the market lack the scale of battles, tactical opportunities and visual realism of events. Officers offers three campaigns for USSR, Allied forces and Germany, around 100 different types of vehicles, armored units, self-propelled guns, artillery, and aircrafts, various opportunities to employ different tactics to achieve victory on the battlefield, huge locations, destructible environments, dynamic day and night cycles, seasonal effects, squad command feature, advanced damage system for vehicles and equipment, combat formations and many more.

Now, let me elaborate on some of the mentioned above. Till recently, we have been shooting for three campaigns. Now, however, we are thinking about putting off the Soviet part until the add-on. This way, we can work out the other two campaigns into greater detail paying more attention to the mission and level design, scripting, balancing and stuff for the best gaming experience. The decision will be made soon. So keep an eye on the project updates.

When we say huge locations, we really mean it. The biggest location will be 5x5 km, with its actual size amounting to 8x8 km. We leave 3km buffer for each side of a map to prevent, as we call it, the closed-room effect. In other words, the player will not be able to visually see the actual edge of the location.

Speaking of the battle scale, the game features up to 1500 units on the battlefield. Now compare this number with other 3D RTS games in the market :). Squad command feature means the player will control whole subdivisions instead of fussing with single units. When I mentioned the RPG elements, I was talking about a number of upgradeable parameters the troops have. These are a medic skill, skirmish skill, engineer skill, range of vision, concealment skill and some others. The player is free to decide which parameters to improve for any given squad.
