steeldivision2.comWargame : AirLand Battle represented a substantial quality increase over European Escalation. Will Steel Division 2 do the same? Lets hope, 2 poorly selling games in a row and being dumped by Paradox, they won't have many more chances.

They were dumped by Paradox ?:O Also...why couldn't they just release an expansion for SD1 ? I mean...being able to play all 3 factions would be amazing.

Same reason why Eugen had 3 Wargame titles in 2.5 years and the sequels weren't add-ons. The content from the previous games all made it into the sequels though, so hopefully the western front armies make it in, but we'll see.

Steel Division: Mortal Divisions pls

YES

Really excited for this. I had figured that SD: Normandy didn't sell well enough to warrant a second game. Glad to be wrong, although we know the Wargame series fans are still gonna be pissed.
12
I don’t know what selling well is for an indie game company but it did sell 200,000 copies plus DLC

Can't wait for the Katyushas
11
dynamic campaign....YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
11
I know right? I figured they had the pieces in place after the last few content increases in N44. It could be great!
What I'm hoping for is the ability to move sub division level assets around the operational level map. IE attaching a pioneer company to a line infantry battalion that you are pushing into a built up area or the like.

Bagration is a great choice of setting. I hope we get to tank desant.

Probs wont pre order but will be interesting to see the new changes, also "brand new deck design" hmmmmm lol
6
Where does it say about new deck design?
4
Edit: actually it says "Customize and perfect your battlegroups in the brand new deck system allowing a never-seen-before tactical freedom."

Thanks

My guess is units that can be multi role. You can buy it under support or recon, or tanks and td, etc. I know I would leave slots open in support with tanks unused or recon unused, etc.
3
Could also be that you could use units across divisions at a sligt disadvantage, and create battlegroups, in the same manner that the germans did, when they took five different formations and smashed them into one due to heavy losses

Shut up and take my money! :)

Yessssssss

I might actually pick up Steel Division: Normandy 44 now before this comes out if it goes on sale.
Have the improvements been worth it? I was planning on buying this game on release, but held off to check it out first and it seemed lacking.
5
Worth buying on a sale, even just for the SP content.
6
Much like Wargame, Eugen ended Steel Division 1 with some poorly thought out DLC. If you are looking to get into Steel Division, I'd wait for 2.

Thanks, I'll probably hold off on it then.

Not sure I agree with the above poster. None of the divisions in SD are OP such that they can’t be beaten. Some have cool toys, but the come with striking downsides to be managed.
I don’t know Wargame that well, but I can say fans of the series are evangelical in their hatred for any product Eugen makes that isn’t Wargame X+1.

Not really I was looking forward to steel division, just didn’t find it that enjoyable really. So not all wargsme fans are like that.
3
Only division I find a bit OP in team games is the 1st SS Panzer Division. All others I think are fine.
3
I wonder which two steps we make forward and which one back, this time.

Best rts of 2017 getting a sequel... is this what they mean by boner 🍆 jam?
3
SP campaign should be fun.
2
YEAAAAAAAAAASSSSS! :) :) :)

Love this! Love W:ALB etc, love SD and can't wait for this!

"IT'S SO FLUFFY I'M GONNA DIE!"

Just a fun unit call out but I'm excited to use those British-lent Matildas!

Ok wow. This game must have been really cheap and fast to make because I can't see how they could've made a new Steel Division game because the first one wasn't that popular.
I really hope they'll add some new features.
1†
I don’t know about that they made 25 maps for the game as well as an entirely new nation, it also said they revamped the engine. As well as a 1x1 scale campaign

Praying that they remove server browser in favour of CoH 2 style matchmaker. I loved SD but this change would make it perfect.

Fantastic!
Really hope they get the release right this time. With all the improvements which came a bit too late for SD44.
Coop, real matchmaking so newbies can play online without getting curbstomped/stacked and preferably hiding/obscuring the server browser.
