About this game

Firefight is a World War II real-time simulation game with more AI and attention to detail than any other game in its genre to date. Tanks are modelled with a physics engine and have gears, rev counters and speedos, and steer themselves with brake levers to give them realistic looking tracked vehicle movement. Each bullet, shell or piece of shrapnel is modelled in 3D and ricochets realistically off sloping surfaces. You can see each infantryman's rank, name, weapon, ammunition remaining, heart rate and fatigue levels. Machine gunners will call for ammunition when they're running low and other squad members will rush over with spare ammo if they are carrying any. Wounded men call for medics who will sprint over to administer first aid. Off-board artillery can be called in but will have to fire several ranging shots before the full 8 gun battery opens fire simultaneously.

If you liked Close Combat you'll love Firefight!

Ratings and reviews

The game is pretty amazing, simplified but great graphics and gameplay. My only issue is attacking with tanks, watching my tank miss 5 rounds on enemy armor right in front of it and the second I move it, it dies. I'd like to see a sandbox mode, where I can put units on both sides. Having a all out infantry or tank battle, or something weird like all mortars.

I really, really like the concept and controls of this game! I would appreciate it, however, if units were more accurate (both enemy and friendly). Infantry took 1-3 shots to kill (I watched a German take 7 bursts of MG fire from a tank (yes, each burst produced blood splatter)). Units stop firing if they lose sight of an enemy for too long (right now they mag dump the last known position). Conceales units stay concealed with minimum bar length. Finally, if buildings were destructible by tanks.

It's a must have, If you are a fan of in depth, realistic, and historically accurate RTS games, this is one of the best mobile has to offer. Frequent updates, amazing mods, and endless replayability. It adds up a bit when you buy the additional front packs, but it's totally worth it to me. 5/5 great game 👍.
