6 year anniversary

Recommended Posts

Today, 24th of December in the year of our lord (or other selected heathen deity) 2012.

I have been a satisfied customer of Steel Beasts since 2006.

Version 2.224?? (Anyway the one before 2.238)

Having played SB1 for about a year (when everyone was blathering on about SB Pro PE,I saw some you tube videos and thought, why not, so I splurged $125 on a brand spanking new copy of SB.

Ssnake, Our Favorite Sales (and now principle) Geschaftsfuhrer, I have enjoyed every bloody minute of it!

I remember when...

Infantry were sprites.

You had, None, Defend, Guard & Die in place (Hold) Tactical options.

No Start Mission Battle Ready

No RWS systems,

No NVG systems

No CV90s at all, not 1, even the 40B was a mere dream.

No Challenger 2

No Pizarro

No MRVs (I think)

1 Flavour of M1 & T-72

Same Level Lighting

Basic Dust system

SB1 era artillery sounds

The only Helicopter was a HIND (I think)

No Bushmasters

No ASLAVs

Leo 2a4 and Leo 1A5DK had a basic interior

The M1 Gunners station was a basic sight setup.

And 3/4s of the vehicles were un crewable.

(I had not killed a Tree with artillery. :) )

So eSim has made a helluva lot of progress.

Looking forward to more!!

Thank you for the compliments to the team.

:)

Technically the anniversary was in late March (and the first official release was 2.251), although I still think in terms of a continuous development since 1995 (even though I met Al Delaney only two years later), or since late August 2000 when the first version of Steel Beasts was officially launched.
