Armored_Fist_Player Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 (edited) FYI Only - T-72 Balkans on Fire / Iron Warriors was a good 2005-era Win XP game. If you’ve never heard of it, or didn’t give it a chance you should give it a try. It ain’t World of Tanks, and it ain’t Steel Beasts. It’s somewhere in the middle, probably a bit closer to Steel Beasts. Some players put up a new YouTube channel on T-72 if anybody’s interested. (They added their own music for these videos - I prefer the original in-game music, but that’s just me).

Same It is one of the few Hidden games in my SB library, and I'm sure you can see my review of it on Steam. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah, I definitely do remember your videos and posts! Good freakin’ job!!! That video is awesome! It looks great and I recall your settings weren’t even fully maxed out! I am “testing” out old computers (A discarded laptop and an old desktop) with T-72. It is taking me a while to get the hang of it. Some of those missions are incredibly difficult and I bet that turned off a lot of people. I’m playing it on the two different computers and comparing gameplay. One has very poor integrated graphics, the other has a fair 2008 era graphics card. It’s become apparent that very few computers back then could provide a playable frame rate. I perform great on the PC with the video card and can’t hit anything using the laptop with the integrated graphics. I just beat the “Commando” mission where you meet up with the recon squad, kill the jeep driving arms dealer in the village, and return to the start point. It took 1/2 a dozen times for me to remember you go straight East, dust the two T-55s when they crest the hills in the south, nail the Jeep and “arms dealer” drive slow back, destroy the 2 T-34s on the way back, and don’t flip the tank. Wow - I can’t get over the old PC sims. They’re all good. Steel Beasts, even iM1A2 for Windows 95 - that one is next In line for a revisit because I really didn’t play it enough. T-72 is a keeper, if nothing else, my brain is getting a workout trying to beat it, lol.
