This is a really fun game. I was never into simulators, never got into vehicle based combat outside of Battlefield, but there's something about this game that makes it really interesting and fun.

The best way I can think of describing it is that it's similar to how Insurgency reached a middleground between arcade and realism. Where Insurgency finds itself somewhere between Call of Duty and ARMA (or maybe Squad?), Gunner HEAT PC is somewhere between Battlefield and Steel Beasts. If you like one of those games, even if you gravitate more towards one than the other... odds are you will like this one.

I eventually got Steel Beasts, which has some overlap with GHPC but it doesn't feel as polished or as accessible. While I like playing both, GHPC is where I wanna go if I want some action without needing to mess with downloading custom scenarios or reading maps too much. The voice acting in GHPC is also better by leaps and bounds, which adds to the immersion and tension when rounds start flying.

GHPC doesn't have Workshop support, but there are some mods for the game that can increase replay value too. I think it's fine as-is so I haven't messed with it, but I've seen people using M1A2's (opposed to the A1 in the game), different camo patterns, that sort of thing. They're all on the game's Discord.

Overall one of my better purchases on Steam by far.

Chieftain when

Do you want a War Thunder without sweats, nationalists, fan mails, uptiers, constant enemy CAS, and nonsense damage models? AND an actual realistic tank experience? Then get this game.

Though the selection of international vehicles is limited (you get US, DDR, and USSR only). It still has a variety of vehicles you can use. West Germany is coming soon according to their road map.

At the moment, there is only one map which is Fulda Gap, but there are a lot of missions you can try, there even is a campaign.

ANd lastly, if you want to install GHPC in your laptop: Ą̶͍͚̟̾̇̾͒͐̐̽͗͂v̸̙̜͚̙̓̄̊̀ō̵̢̨̪͈̱̻̥̟̠͖̫̟̺̔̈́̔ͅi̷̧̢̦̝̦͕͙̰̿̇d̵̞̥͈͇̑̇̈́̈͆̿̾̉̓͊̌̾̔͝ ̶̟͔̬̯̇͊t̷̢̢̡͉͓͓̙͚̞̪̱̂̇̃̈̒̈́̾̊͑̍̋͋́̄h̴̦̟̫̍̾̈́̿͛̓̔̾͘͝ȩ̴͖̦̤͇͍̬̝̳̘̑̀̍͜ ̸̢̨̼̮̤̞̬͉͕̇̓̔w̷̡̘̥͇̼̝̫͎̦͎͕̦͚̑̓̑̈́̚ͅơ̷̧͆͂͛̑͊̾̽̉̓̍͠ó̷̡̯͎̠̭̮̝͇̥͚͓͋̾͗͒̋͠d̴̲͖̯̤̭͇̦͌̉͋̒ş̶̝̭̙̪̝͋̆͆͐͆͗͜ͅ (The leaves will harass your fps)
yeah, this game is still under development and is laggy.
