We've been hard at work this year on Tannenberg for consoles. The Verdun remaster for consoles went great, and we are channeling that same energy for the Tannenberg release. More on that hopefully soon!
We might not have a lot of game news to share, but we had some interesting film discussion on our Facebook and Twitter pages, plus a couple of nice screenshots from players!
Tannenberg player Panzerjäger II P (which made us think of this cute vehicle, though it's probably a reference to the rather chunkier Elefant) took this moody screenshot of an artillery position surrounded by smoke clouds.
Too colourful?
It appears that some people have been able to give their in-game names bright colors by using a Steam formatting trick. This isn't intentional, and we are planning to fix this with an update soon.
January already saw us release one update with a collection of fixes. You can read the changelog here.
1917
How many of you have had a chance to see 1917 in cinemas? It's an amazing experience, in particular because it was filmed in such a way as to give the impression of one continuous shot without cuts.
We had some discussion on Facebook and Twitter, with people recommending a whole host of interesting WW1 films. In particular there were a couple of foreign films which sounded intriguing, put forward after one person said that they found another film from an allied perspective rather dull and uninspired.
One of those films from a Central Powers perspective is the Hungarian movie Szürke senkik (Grey Nobodies). Thanks to György for that tip!
Meelis suggested something a bit different with Names in Marble, about the Estonian War of Independence after WW1. They do caution that it's perhaps not the most historically accurate film!
Finally, Markus suggested Westfront 1918, a German film from 1930 that he thought had similar vibes to All Quiet on the Western Front.
A still from Westfront 1918: Vier von der Infanterie.
There are even more recommendations on the Facebook post itself if you're in need of new films to watch!
We'll leave you with this nice shot by player OPA_ZIGOTA that looks like two Bulgarian soldiers waiting for the order to attack as dawn breaks.
