IS2. My favorite thing about this game is the persistent wrecks. It's always fun to peruse the battlefield afterwards and see all the carnage.

[@raidermaxx2324]

TRue, i think the battle damage could be a bit better... How long do the craters stick around for in the dirt? I wish it had a slower speed too( i only play singleplayer and i love watching tank shells fly in slo mo bullet time) lol But its pretty good game i aint gonna lie. .. Call to Arms the WW2 DLC's is still my Goat for that very reason tho

[@DGod4Life]

Thank you, Vulcan, for being such a evangelist for SD2, Warno, and Eugen games in general! The games that I love! It's people like you who give these games a presence, and thus allows them to survive and thrive in the RTS world! Thanks again!

[@DGod4Life]

And IS-2

[@VulcanHDGaming]

Really appreciate the super! I will continue to do my best to make these games popular 🎉

[@slimjim5097]

Bro Eugen is the most infamous company in RTS genre after Blizzard, maybe even worse. I dont know if u are old enough to remember the drama about EE and ALB, hell, even SD1 was miserable at the launch. Warno is a luckluster compared to RD and ALB. SD2 repeats same mistakes from SD1. But yeah, enjoy 1 hour fight for single town/forest lol.

That was a more thrilling 90 minutes than any of the latest Marvel movies. Motivated me to throw together a new C phase deck and get back into 10v10. Great stuff.

Nice one, hope you enjoy!!

[@WhenYouWakeUp12]

You don’t see people doing this sort of thing anymore, showing passion for a game and laughing through losses and wins. Thanks Vulcan, hope you continue playing this awesome game! IS 2

[@JonathanB00K3R]

I've been short of money and been playing the base game for 3 years (+ the Vistula dlc) and it's the game I always go back to if I want to have a good night gaming. Also Vulcan! You've made my games so much better with your ambient advice in every video ❤

[@brandontucker1898]

Short of money for 3 years? Sheesh

[@kindredspirit9544]

​@@brandontucker1898 people have different priorities. Maybe they're in education or perhaps they have other investments

[@raidermaxx2324]

have you been able to come up with the 45$ extra for the rest of the DLC's? since then? What if you put aside $3.00 every paycheck? You would have the DLC's in your sweaty little hands with a year and a half!

[@VulcanHDGaming]

Make sure to share this with your friends if they like RTS! This Sunday I'm actually away, but every Sunday is usually Steel Division Sunday on my Twitch from 8pm till 12pm BST (currently GMT)! Midweek Steel Division on Wednesdays, same time! Also a couple of extra things for people new to Steel Division 2: - Most games do not last this long, it is quite regular to put a 50 minute time limit on the game. This is a 10v10 server hosted purposely for this 10v10 designed map that has a 90 minute time limit. (thanks to Hardzen!) - If you buy the game, claim the free DLCs and consider the History (Season) Pass for good value as it gives you 3 entire expansions, their respective campaigns and divisions. - If you are being removed from games for being inexperienced, make your own lobby for newer players. People will join OR come to my stream and get involved in the community!

I never regreat by sd2

[@fontaine717]

SD2 is great but Combat Mission Battle for Normandy is my personal best.

[@vonwar0157]

Thank you for the video. I have a question, in the video you state that it is quite hard to learn how to play. How is the learning curve compared to "Wargame-European Escalation", Wargame Air-land-Battle" and Wargame Red Dragon? is it harder, easier or equal? Please advice. :)

[@pokemon_john]

​@@vonwar0157 hey are you on steam cause ill join you and we can both learn together.

[@slimjim5097]

​@@vonwar0157 Its more micro intensive regard to single entity unit with major focus of veteran units. RD was focused on special forces making them demigods, EE was just an incubator and ALB was a peak imho. TTK is very short in SD1/2 so u must babysit units, ALB was gameplay wise better due to 10hp bar. SD games tends to be stalemate, with little front movement in mid/late game. In ALB and in EE you were able to schwerpunkt parts of the front and keep the momentum as the map allowed tactical retreat. SD maps are mostly static with minimum dynamic, except the times the enemy is weak. Both games are fun, but ALB will always be superior to SD.

[@Tyranis326]

IS-2 ! No but for real, I've discovered this game a while back and even if I tend to play a wide variety of games, I just keep getting back to it. The gameplay is so good and the vast array of units makes me feel like a little kid in a toy shop whenever I make a new division preset, I just get unbelievably excited, especially when I see those bad vehicles that are there mostly for historical reasons like my precious Hotchkiss 35 :3. And of course when I discovered this game, I discovered you as well, which might be one of my favourite youtuber discovery of those last years. Thanks for keeping up the content and contaminating us with your love for this game ! :)

[@huanhuanjavier1231]

One heck of a blockbuster game. Bravo Vulcan! Thoroughly enjoyed your in-depth commentary throughout

SD2 is 110% the best WW2 rts. And it's one of the best RTS period. Ever

[@holzbergerpeter4480]

I played the Closecombat serie since CloseCombat 2 came out , it was the best RTS ww2 game out there for the last 20 years, loved to play against my brother and friends via Lan back im the days. Also Aprm Hiddenstroke 2 was fun to play with a group of 10 -15 people on self made maps and big battles. But today steel division is the way to go, I know no better RTS WW2 game in this scale

[@kolysion164]

@@holzbergerpeter4480 I play gates of Hell and MoW assault squad 2, I prefer this style, they are both the best RTS for me, with CALL TO ARMS

[@timmy3822]

I love SDII but I have to disagree with that second part. Homeworld is a very special game in the genre and remains one of my all time favourites.

I feel like I just watched the battle of Kursk, strangely happy it ended in a draw after such an effort by both teams.

[@dakaodo]

I really admire your continued passion for Eugen's specific RTS niche, and SD2. All your tips, including the IS-2 / friendly shift-view order tip, really show the depth of your understanding of the game after, what, 2000+ hours you said?

[@martinshadowax7]

had a lot of fun in this game, and the honor of playing this match! thank to you i be came fan of this games, keep it up vulcan! and the old SD 44 and RD

[@thestoicsteve]

A marathon of a battle, showing how team members can support and reinforce each other. Yes the game looks beautiful close up. Its a rock-paper-scissors game with many types of units. I did watch it all. Great stuff.

[@SanguineMaelstrom]

Thank you for making these videos. I've always been a fan of RTS titles, but I just purchased SD2 yesterday and your videos were crucial to learning the important aspects of the game. I'm on a win streak against AI but I think I'm ready to get crushed in an online match. Thanks for covering the distance between casual RTS gamers, and the learning curve associated with SD2.

[@nicholaszonenberg8023]

Really enjoyed this :D Always wonderful to see super long games that are like this! Keep up the great work!

[@chomis5000]

I've never seen this game before and yet I've watched this whole video becouse this game seems very iteresing with your casting of this replay. I'm all into ww2 RTS i came to your channel from your casting with AEcoh and i dont regret it, lovely conent you have on your channel IS2

[@mickelindbla829]

It's the best game since Close Combat battle of the bulge in the 90s, so it was a long wait for someone to make something that could top it. I am 52 years old and absolutely love this game and I have 4100 hours on this game and play mostly AG myself. I don't like playing online matches because of all the whining and hate on the Steel Division discussion forums.

[@Likearollingstone174]

I bought it tonight after watching your videos. I wasn’t disappointed either. COH is so arcade like (and expensive) but this game is incredibly realistic. Thanks for the content and the information.

[@VulcanHDGaming]

Welcome and hope you enjoy it! Hopefully see you in game sometime.

[@lanzorroznal]

If you want a game with even HIGHER realism, then I highly recommend "Combat Mission: Battle for Normandy." Scale isn't as big as Steel Division, but equally thrilling though slightly slower paced.

[@rowancoggins9638]

A pleasure to listen to you. I saw you on the field the other day and said thanks. Dredd

[@danielk1089]

Your videos are awesome mate! Thanks to you I’m going full on buy-mode and buying the game as well as all DLC:s for it. Can’t wait to delve in. Keep up the great work with your videos 😎

[@willgraham9867]

IS-2 loved the long form vid. Great commentary as usual Vulcan.

[@RevWolf1776]

I think that the learning curve keeps people away, for me I love watching game play and I do own the game but I barely play because micro in RTS games have never been my strong suit.

[@xJamesLaughx]

Same, I bought the game as it looked interesting as I do like RTS games, but rarely ever play it simply because this is way to micro-management centric and that takes a lot of the fun away from the game to me.

[@VulcanHDGaming]

Yeah that is understanable. Thankfully in singleplayer you can slow the game or pause it but in multiplayer it can take a while to get used to.

[@nateb1248]

I think the big thing about "new players" with all strategy games is that the incredibly skilled high tier players end up stomping any newer players in casual games and that tends to kill the scene, as not everyone wants to dedicate an hour of their time to being absolutely crushed by someone with thousands of hours. Also Eugen communities can be quite toxic, all I have to say is "Wargame Chat" and people know EXACTLY what I mean, although WARNO has apparently been banning people like that which is pretty cool. I should probably join some more strategy game communities myself but I genuinely think those are my 2 big problems with the community.

[@VampiroGaming]

A good player will defeat a newbie in way less than an hour, more like 10 to, maximum, 20 minutes. Plus you can check the rank afterwards. Or arrange matches with other new players or get a coach. Can't really complain about the organised SD2 community, a mirror of society, I'd say neither better nor worse. Maybe even better.

[@lightbringerindustries5295]

Thx for this tarrifiic Video, it´s like watching a Soccer Cup Match 120 Minutes! Watched it from beginnung to the end! Thx buddy

Hi Vulcan , just wanted to say , great video , and you are so right, SD2 is really great ! Just wanted to say this, since i just saw the recent Eugen post, how SD2 will continue with its development, an entire new Tribute DLC ! Nice to see it will continue living on !

[@forlornfoe352]

You got me into Wargame near a decade ago, awesome how much RTS content you have accumulated through the years. I recently got 3 friends to try Wargame:RD and surprisingly they all enjoy it, so that is another 4 players you have gotten indirectly into Wargame. Thanks for that. *[celebratory Buratino barrage]* I tried SD1 when it was published and did not like it at all, ended up ignoring Eugen Systems for some years. I only recently started watching SD2 videos and Warno has some potential to succeed Wargame, perhaps me and my buddies will hop into newer titles at some point.

[@VulcanHDGaming]

Thanks for supporting the content for so long! I really appreciate it.

[@emilhentzen412]

The 16th Panzer also got mechanized Infantry equipped with Sd.Kfz. 251's, which are very useful especially against lightly-armoured units but also infantry (espacially soviet infantry), it also got rocket artillery which can be devestating if enemy units are packed up close and all this is without the DLC's

[@tonythesopranos5310]

I started playing sd2 last December and I really love it. There's nothing else like it. My main grip with the game, and I don't know how you'd fix it, is the sheer amount of babysitting you've to do, or tedious micro, let me explain. The game simultaneously in 1v1, (less so in larger lobbies) expects you to micro an entire front of rock paper scissor type units across a huge map. In conjunction with this, many units, let's take small infantry divisions have smoke grenades, so I need to manage an air force, artillery, close and long range infantry, manually move infantry around houses, tanks etc., and you expect me to have the time and ability to tell infantry unit number 78 to throw smoke in front of itself whilst a tank mows it down. I think Steel division 2 has the micro complexity of a smaller scale game, and thus on a large scale it becomes impossible. I'm sure there are many much better players than can manage all this better than I can, but it's a major deterent to new players. Eugen could boost the popularity of their game by codifing and streamlining smart orders to reduce the micro load, as a tangible, practical solution to make the game more popular.

[@VampiroGaming]

It is possible to play tactical maps (there have been tacitcal tournaments, too), or play with less points (starting points and/or income), thus reducing the amount of units on the battlefield. This is not in qp or ranked, but it can be played this way :)

[@simongoodwin5989]

Well I'm only 17 minutes into the video and already I know I have to buy SD2! I like your style of presentation and appreciate the helpful suggestions you make for those of us like me with zero knowledge of this game or even this type of game. I look forward to joining the community :)

[@notbotheredable]

That was a hell of a game. GG. Minor tip: when attacking heavy tanks with artillery, give it the return fire order until the whole battery has finished aiming. If the tanks move then you can cancel the strike without giving away your position or wasting a salvo. If it doesn't move then every gun fires simultaneously, making moving out of the barrage much harder (good players move their tanks as soon as the artillery starts landing).

[@smoessmee]

The reinforcement road on the far right near the end was mental, on the minimap it just showed a unbroken stream of units pouring up to the front :D

[@Naz_LVII]

I had no idea this game existed. I’m a huge rts fan. The way this game approaches rts is very innovative with huge potential. If any dev reads this, and is unaware of the new Unreal Engine technology, it can actually render graphics at great distances all over the screen without hindering the fps. It is an extraordinary leap for game development technology. Can you imagine this game utilizing that tech? Maybe the evolution of rts we’ve been waiting for!

[@saturn12002]

What puts me off to steel division 2 is that I find it to be very overwhelming. Learning all the different infantry, vehicle, arty and aircraft types, and how they behave, and how best to use them, when best to use them etc. Not to mention all the different divisions, and deck building etc. For me its juts a lot, and is pretty intimidating. None the less I do own the game, bought it a long while ago, after discovering your channel. You inspired me to get the game, and make it look so easy. I just wish I wasn't so overwhelmed by it.

[@VampiroGaming]

One thing that really helps A LOT is to activate "show armour/penetration value" in the options. It will show these values as shown in this cast. It is switched off by default. Switch it on and a good portion of the problems are solved :)

That being said of course, this is only in affect in the single player campaign(which is awesome it its own right- i dont play multiplayer myself , its not my thing, thats another reason why Call to aRms is more my cup of tea. It has multiplayer but the single player campaigns and missions are great. The third DLC is coming out next month, and its going to feature the American military and the landing at Normandy, and MArket Garden etc... (before it was all Soviet\German\Finland military and gear) You probably know all this, nut in case you aint heard of it, im doing my best to upsell you lol

[@adamtruong1759]

It feels like WW2 has suddenly reverted back to WW1 style battle of attrition and artillery. That right town became the successor to Verdun with all the indirect fire, and victory being measured in mere inches and meters. Imagine afterwards, the cleanup process for all the intact warheads and the deadly chemicals in the area. I think many soldiers are going face mental and psychical injuries of many descriptions, maybe even a few mutinies. I don't even think the belligerent nations would have any will towards such a war, I don't even think they would be able to manufacture enough ammo (let alone vehicles and manpower) such intense fighting for a month or two.

Love listening to your commentary, reminds me of the footy for some reason lol. Great to hear your enthusiasm for the game is still way up. nerdgassm lol

Bout time I got around to this video. Great game, and a perfect example of SD2! And also, your evangelism for Steel Division has paid off, trust me lol. I've watched nearly all your videos over the last few years and bought and played both SDs. Worth every minute.

would love to see you dive into the modding swamp and try out the freedom mod its absolute chaos!

Thanks Vulcan, I really LOVE watching you play and I own a copy of the game, but playing it makes me so frustrated that I never stick with it. It just has such a steep learning curve and I can't figure out where to begin, even when I watch the beginner tutorials. 😢

i found that playing the single player campaign and restarting if i get rolled and also turning the game speed to the slowest , really helps
