He has always helped newbies with questions about the sim, technical issues they may be facing and if he does not have the answer regularly points person to someone or a source who may be able to help. Gibsonm also hosts a weekly get-together for SBPE players and welcomes all to those sessions. He has created and sponsored large multiplayer campaigns in the past and hopefully will continue to do so in the future. He has treated those with respect who deserve it.<br /><br />And then there is you Anonymous.

Some of the guys in that post are on the dev team. Disgusting. Like I said I have had Steel Beasts for many years and been on the official forum for over 10. Please tell people what that post was about. Well? The truth now. There are people on SB forum full of hate. I invite all to look. Please be advised you will witness racism and all types of personal attacks by the dev team as well as the “old guard”<br /><br /><br />This is from one of the most active and helpful not to mention knowledgeable guys in SB “I will not be supporting or promoting eSim Games after they took what should have been a private issue between a few people and twisted it into an absurd public debacle to punish and defame those who, in the "old guards" paranoia, are suspected of scheming to disrupt their little club.” He posted that in public. He was a huge supporter.<br /><br /><br /><br />SB is also a very buggy game. That is a fact. Most militaries of the world do NOT use it. It is good as a procedural trainer in certain instances. It lacks many many things. Things that others have including SABOW.<br /><br /><br />Sorry for this JC it had to be said.<br />Thanks <br />B.

Arrogant, condescending not to mention very sarcastic. Proof? Look at this thread. It’s not about his beloved Steel Beasts so he deliberately tries to discredit it. He then deletes some of his posts. Very mature and respectful. He is not all knowing. Check on the SB forum. He is very aggressive and sarcastic. The majority of people do NOT like him. He thinks he knows it all but he doesn’t. Don’t believe me? Look on the forum. <br /><br />Oy yes 1 more thing. Steel Beasts is NOT that accurate. It is also VERY buggy. Look at the bug report section. There are many many bugs which are not put on the forum. That community is hateful. Don’t believe me? Go and read…<br /><br />Yes I do have and play Steel Beasts just not with the “usual” SB people. And yes I have Steel armor. It is a more polished and realistic product in what it represents.<br /><br />So please Bill H. Next time you defend a person please do it with an un-biased view.

They have realistic balistics & penetrations. This has many things that Steel Beasts does not have. I know that SABOW is not MP but take MP away from Steel Beasts and what you got???? Steel Beasts Devs argue and fight with community! Yes true i seen it many times. Go forums and read!<br /><br />Steel Beasts is not accurate in everything. I have it for many years. It has major network issues etc. Terrain resolution is terrible. You seen the roads? 1990 graphics. Questionable balistics & hits. It has a very angry online community at steelbeasts.com . I could go on....<br /><br />Gibsonm. You own SABOW? Tried it? If not then come back when you have<br /><br />I leave you with one last question. Steel Beast Realistic? Why are trees biggest killer in Steel Beasts? 60 ton tank v small tree in Steel Beasts at 20kph = dead tank & crew. In real life NOT! I can show many other examples.<br /><br />Sorry JC i had to say.

You can see also the ENY's lamps blazing the head vehicles with their lamps.<br /><br />Maybe you are getting this impression because it is dawn and there is some ambient light.
