Steel Division 2

It's a really fun and detailed game. Never played the multiplayer cos the campaigns are so much fun

this game can release your stress at work . Recommemded to anyone who have stressful day .

While this can be considered a "hard" game,with some peculiar mechanics,such as spotting system,hill depression,and in general infantry combat,its still a good game. I wouldn't suggest it for "new" players in strategy games,or for people with 0 experience with other ww2 games,but it still can be fun.There A LOT of divisions,and different units,a thanks to the phases and incomes,different playstyles. The game is old for sure,and it doesn't have that many players anymore,but they are still updating it as of March 2025,we are still hoping for SD3,but for now Steel Division 2 its still worth it,maybe not 40 euros,but a good 25,sure

The only thing dis game needs is that Nazi Ufo thing

i still miss R.U.S.E.

Despite really wanting to enjoy it and spending 8 Hours of skirmish with AI, I still can't tell what is going on. Phases are a crappy mechanic that limit initial forces and once you to end up with your final tier of units in C, you're either still deploying units you got in B phase or now end up with an abundance.

Coming from WARNO, I also heavily dislike the fact you can't put tanks in certain forests. Half the maps I have played so far have crazy elevations to attack with heavy forest on top of them, and the smaller forests offer next to no good sight lines. They are pretty much equivalent of sitting in the open with how overpowered recon is with sight range in this game, in addition to radio communication being downright crazy.

The other biggest kicker for me is there are no premade decks whatsoever so the only way to create a deck is to autofill. Some of these decks actually have open slots and other empty things still, but being an inexperienced player it proves confusing on what unit I need to put in which phase. On top of that, there's also the frontline mechanic which basically just gives your units negative debuffs if you get cut off. You're already pretty screwed in this scenario, but it effectively just makes the punishment even worse.

It's not a bad game, but it plays completely different than WARNO with several confusing mechanics that hard to pick up. especially when you are used to more polished modern titles.

Truly, thou hast crafted thy most phenomenal pleasure known in the Occident. Thy hast my most earnest honour!

I know a lot more about Waffen-SS Divisions because of this game.

gud

Very nice game

Sick and tired of games that require an account/third party launcher for online play. Could not even check if there was "LAN" multiplayer option first.

DESREPECT TO GERMAN 26 MILLION AND THERE WAR DEAD

best realistic ww2 rts on the market

Very good ww2 game I highly recomend

You're going to have high blood pressure when playing this game.

Will the model with turret p61 be released

THANK YOU FOR NOT BEING ABLE TO USE MODS UNLESS I OWN ALL DLC.
EDIT:
Currently up to date mods are working neverthless.
The most important one is being the sound mod. since sound is pretty bad sadly.

It's really good fun. I do like the first game better. I mostly play single player and enjoy the battle setup and details that are in the first one. This game feels bigger in scale. It's very good and can see why ppl get together and play with many ppl at once. Sweet.

It can be fun I would say to wait for a discount on the dlcs tho.

Great game with fantastic scale. A must have for RTS fans of WW2 era

good

I wanna play normandy，italy and market garden campaign in army general mode. be quick

awesome strategy game!

Very good

First off, Unit rosters suck dick extremely UNDERWHELMING.

The germans have the Firefly battle tank but Americans DON'T have their own tank!?!?!?! WHAT? You can tell the people who made this game are obviously French I dont even need to google that shit. They have no idea how a military should operate and have no idea what units the Americans actually used nor do they understand echelons ie: platoon/company/battalion/brigade/division etc.

Game sucks, They could easily add every unit insignia into the game and allow you to create epic battlegroups but they essentially WONT do that b/c they just want your money. YOU NEED TO PAY US for a fucking unit patch and then we'll give you SOME of the units used by the Americans and not even SOME of the best.

$120 dollars and you're not going to give a full completed game?! are you fucking nuts?! Stay away from this studio and avoid these games.

Such a rip off.

i will suck so much weiner-penis for some western front maps please im begging you

Love all the detail of the divisions. Well researched game. I wish more people played it but the Dev's do keep working on it so props to them

Hugely absorbing game

My favorite part of WW2 is when the USSR, America, Canada, Britain and France fought against Germany, Finland, Hungary, Bulgaria and Romania in Lenina. This was an amazing representation of that amazing battle thank you so much Eugen

I am literally dogshit at all of Eugen's games and i cannot win a match for the life of me

Good game

At the first look the game is great. It seems to be very accurate when it comes to realims. But with time you´ll notice that this is a pure russian propaganda game. A t 34/85 can take a tiger on any distance at a 1 vs. 1 which is pure Bullshit. Also the russian Aircraft and Artillery is op. After the first Steel Division i was really looking forward for this one, but its pure soviet garbage

best game from eugens

The best WWII RTS game on the market. It is a shame so few are playing it. The only cavieat I have is the pricy DLCs.

Terrible game, spent 75 minutes chipping away at some german F**K, sending all of my poor men straight into machine gun fire trying to gain a stupid forest. Best rts I have ever played, putting operation barbarossa to shame every single match.

The game is fine, resembles WARNO in many aspects, one BIG issue is the fact that mods are extremly hard to make them work, since the devs lock up the GREAT majority of the content behind dlcs which is worse than Paradox, I am unable to play any mods that would make me play for more, I find it disrespectful for the gaming community to make people pay 40 USD for the "Standart" edition, and then on top of that even if you buy a "higher standart edition" which comes with dlcs, you have to still buy 200+ USD for all the content this game has, completly unjustified that dlcs cost more than the game itself, you could buy half a console with that money, stay away from this game.

If you're looking for a review on this game you've come to the wrong place, but if you're looking for an outstanding pie recipe you've come to the right place.

Ingredients:

1. 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
2. 1/2 cup white sugar
3. 1/2 cup brown sugar
4. 1/4 cup water
5. 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
6. 1 pinch salt
7. 5 apples - peeled, cored and sliced
8. 1 pastry for double-crust pie

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
2. Combine butter, white sugar, brown sugar, water, cinnamon, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, remove from heat and set aside.
3. Roll out half the pastry to fit a 9-inch pie plate. Place bottom crust in pie plate; pour in apple slices.
4. Roll out top crust into a 10-inch circle. Cut into 8 (1-inch) wide strips with a sharp paring knife or pastry wheel. Weave the pastry strips, one at a time, into a lattice pattern. Fold the ends of the lattice strips under the edge of the bottom crust and crimp to seal.
5. Pour butter-sugar mixture over top of pie, coating the lattice, and allowing any remaining sauce to drizzle through the crust.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and bake until the crust is golden brown, the caramel on the top crust is set, and the apple filling is bubbling, 35 to 40 more minutes. Allow to cool completely before slicing.

This game is amazing.

On the surface, this might seem like a poorly made, pay-to-win, World War Two game. However, I personally think that the game is very well made, with so much content to see and play with. The DLCs are worth the price and come with lots of new units. If you want recommendations, I would get the Tribute to D-Day and Italy DLCs, and the Burning Baltics DLC first, as they have lots of content. I would also check out another game by the same devs called WARNO, if you want a Modern/Cold War styled game with the same play style.

Up to $270 worth of DLC now. Foul behavior.

the fact I need to buy every DLC to play mods in this game is a joke, Great game, but a fucking joke.

If you would not play only for Germans so dont buy. Win for others is near imposible. Because of this online is so low.

So tired of the monthly updates that pause the mods that make this game fun. All to add 12 units that do the same thing as every other unit. Map updates that actually improve gameplay are rare, and none are related to the historical unit packs, meaning you've got battlegroups from the Sicilian campaing duking it out in more Russian Steppes.

Just another DLC farm.

I really like the platform, i find it fairly entuitive and the historical accuracy is nice.

Eugen do good games I like this one.

Endless hours of tactical and strategical combat.

Absoulte masterpiece

Do consider buying the DLC on the Romanian Carpathian fronts

scorp scorp

It’s a game from 2019, and it’s basically what HOI4 battles would look like in action. Steel Division 2 is a deep, tactical RTS with massive battlefields, detailed units, and a steep learning curve. The campaign is whatever, but the real fun is in custom battles, where you can build your own division and fight intense, large-scale wars. If you love strategy games and big WW2 battles, it’s worth it.

A detailed WW2 war game, quite hard to grasp in the beginning but after you get the basic it will be thrilling especially playing as German due to outmatched and outnumbered

As a gamer that appreciate degree of realism especially the historical one, i truly recommend this game. Here's some points that i can give :
- Some degree of realism : armor thickness can affect whether your armored units can be pierced by other units gun, combined arms is the key to win strategic point (not everything has to kill/eliminate enemies. Suppress while move the other units to flank can also be beneficial), line of sights (armored units especially tank have a very bad optics so they might need to be guided by recon units), & many more.
- The map & the battlegroups composition sometimes can be asymmetrical : once i tried to use Poland which have various infantry type but lack of reliable armored units (which reflect the real historical situation back then) against Germany. I found it hard & frustrated just to get my infantry closer to put a punch on enemy panzer (it might be skill issue tho lol). But i think that's the reason what makes the game enjoyable, real warfare situation might not always symmetrical.
- Can be hard to master : As you can see, i have play the game for like 46 hours & i still can't claim to be considered as good player. Give it a time & be patience, eventually you'll find the joy. I lose one game but i'm proud since i learned things or two out of it.
- Playing against AI can be difficult : since they can respond to situation in immediate, while we might need to micro our units in tactical level. We micro them, while AI already making his 2nd, 3rd and so on move in another fronts.
- One game session can run for 1 hours or more.

I never claim to be a hardcore gamer, i just want to play, have fun with some degree of realism, & learn the historical side after. If you are just like me, then you probably will be exhausted & frustrated at first. Give it some time & keep learning, i think you will enjoy the game.
