Tank Commander: Battlefield

[b][quote][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_flip]Warning: Asset Flip![/url][/quote][/b] Tank Commander: Battlefield is a Unity Asset flip, what Valve calls a "fake game". The "developer", SP GAMES/BD Games, took the [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/systems/battle-tank-starter-kit-60792]Battle Tank Starter Kit[/url] Unity Store tutorial/demo/game asset pack from the real developers, Hardworker Studio, changed the name, and dumped the result onto Steam. They're attempting to scam people into buying this, so they can get your money for someone else's work. SP GAMES/BD Games has shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab. Here's some examples so you can see for yourself: [list] [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2337690]Battle Tanks: Arena[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/kawaii-tanks-project-87414]Kawaii Tanks Project[/url] developed by Chobi [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1199150]Raccoon: The Orc Invasion[/url]" = [url=https://olanartworks.itch.io/2d-forest-assets-pack/devlog/82452/first-asset-for-downloads]2D Forest Assets Pack[/url] developed by Olan Artworks [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2126500]WWII Tanks: Forgotten Battles[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/game-toolkits/physics-tank-maker-50485]Physics Tank Maker[/url] developed by Chobi [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1826290]WWII Tanks: Battlefield[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/game-toolkits/physics-tank-maker-50485]Physics Tank Maker[/url] developed by Chobi [/list] Because this is an almost exact 1:1 copy + paste of the original Unity asset, it's in violation of the [url=https://unity.com/legal/as-terms]Unity Asset Store Terms of Service and EULA[/url]. Specifically, this part: [i]Subject to the restrictions set forth in this EULA, Licensor hereby grants to the END-USER a non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide, and perpetual license to the Asset solely:(a) to incorporate the Asset, [b]together with substantial, original content not obtained through the Unity Asset Store[/b], into an electronic application or digital media that has a purpose, features, and functions beyond the display, performance, distribution, or use of Assets ("Licensed Product") as an embedded component of that Licensed Product, [b]such that the Asset does not comprise a substantial portion of the Licensed Product[/b][/i] Because the developer misused the asset pack such that it comprises the vast majority of this "game", the developer has unethically and deliberately breached the license agreement. Worse, this intellectual property violation was done in an attempt to profit from their illicit actions. Why is this permitted on Steam? The products that result from asset flips aren't "real" games. They lack depth and content, because they're just simplistic copies of demos or tutorials. In this case, "Battle Tank Starter Kit" is just a barebones third person tank shooter wave survival game template, and doesn't have any merit as a proper, fully fledged PC game, so this copy+paste of it can't be recommended. Asset flips don't involve any professional game development. Sure, sometimes they may change a few cosmetic things, swap out different assets etc, but at heart it's functionally identical to the asset they're ripping off. Asset flips like this are harmful to the gaming industry and to Steam because they reduce the visibility that sincerely made indie games should have, and make it harder for gamers to find real games from genuine developers. Don't reward this morally bankrupt, unethical behaviour from SP GAMES/BD Games. [b][quote][url=https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/marketing/profile]Profile Features Limited![/url][/quote][/b] Valve have marked this game as "Profile Features Limited" at the time of this review. This is usually caused by poor sales figures and low community acceptance for the game (to date). Until this status changes, this game will not give you +1 to your Game Collector badge count, appear in profile achievements or any other Steam meta-accomplishments, nor can it be displayed in some profile showcases. If these factors are important to you, it may be worth holding off before buying this game.

This is more like an arcade tank game from the 90s than anything else...drive around, try to destroy enemy tanks, then when your health degraded to zero your tank blows up and you throw in another 25 cents and start over. There's nothing particularly realistic about it, especially compared to something like War Thunder and the AI of the enemy is kinda laughable. There are a few different maps but they're very simplistic and none of the buildings/trees/whatever can be damaged. For a buck or two you might get a few minutes of enjoyment out of it, but if you want something with even a modicum of staying power find something else to buy.

Good game so far but needs work... Pros: +The Tank gameplay is extremely smooth. Physics and weapon drop are nice as well +Great sound. Love the old school engine noise when I'm in scope +Great Environments Cons: -Endless tanks to defeat in one stage, no stage progression in between. No sense of purpose except to quit the game when you've defeated your limit of tanks I guess. This needs to be updated desperately! -No Multiplayer which seems to be what this game is all about. At least it needs the addition of split-screen multiplayer or local-coop split screen at least if not online. That would make it a lot of fun Overall 6.5/10. It's fun, until you get bored destroying tanks and then it feels absolutely pointless. But this game has a lot of potential and it's not a bad game at all. Just add these updates and it will be a solid game so far

No complaint with the price but the gameplay absolutely garbage.

To be honest, the content of this game is too simple. You can only move tank and fire shells. Most of the time, it is difficult to hit the enemy. The enemies in the game are endless, and you will soon get tired of it. This is just a rough new work. The game still has a certain potential. If more content and playing methods are added, it is expected to become an excellent game. I hope it can be improved one day. Btw, the German tanks are so powerful that I finally failed after killing more than 10 enemies. -------------------------------------------------- Manual achievement: 0/0

iTS FUN BUT DO NOT EXPECT IT TO BE REALISTIC, ALL TANKS ARE EQUAL

Rubbish its a arcade tank battle game.

Best of Best tanks game arcade!

В первые минуты игры она мне очень понравилась, хоть и выглядит как World of Tanks для бедных с такой же механикой урона. А потом поиграв некоторое время и почитав другие обзоры, выяснилось что это Ассет флип, полностью взятый с сайта Юнити, только поменяв модельки судя по всему и немного интерфейс. Ладно, есть примеры игр за 20 рублей, которые хотя бы играбельны, но разработчик даже не пофиксил баги этого шаблона. Нету никакой системы возрождения, порой танки делают стремные движения перевороты, резкие развороты и так далее, а про историческую часть я вообще молчу. На карте с Японией фпс по какой-то непонятной причине просаживается до 20 и как так, что в Европе полно битв, а в тихоокеанском регионе почти ничего. Вообщем у этого разработчика много игр про танки и это на данный момент судя по скриншотам других проектов, где шаблон приличнее, самая худшая. Не могу рекомендовать.
