RUSTYMORLEY Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 My young lad is just getting into computers and is able to play action \ shooter games on his PC. He seems to be very interested in WW2 tanks and first-person shooters. Can anyone recommend a good arcade-style tank shooter which can be played like a first-person shooter, and can be modded or added to or updated, which would also not be too complicated for an adolescent!

+streakeagle Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 A great game that can't be beat for moddability/fun is the old Operation Flashpoint GOTY which has been re-released as ARMA Cold War Assault on Steam. This will run on just about any PC given its age and is a great shooter with fun arcade action in tanks, helos, and planes. My son loves driving around in an M1A1 or M60A3 and decimating infantry. Of course, if you have modern, strong gaming PCs, then ArmA 2 or ArmA 3 might be what you are looking for. All of them have tons of free mods. Quote
RUSTYMORLEY Posted May 14, 2014 Author Posted May 14, 2014 (edited) Streakeagle, thanks I have already got ARMA 2 (unmodded) but it is mostly modern era stuff, i would prefer WW2 tanks. However can you tell me where I might be able to have a look at some downloadable tank Mods for ARMA 2 Edited May 14, 2014 by RUSTYMORLEY Quote
+streakeagle Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 There is an entire 3rd party WW2 game based on the ArmA2 engine, but free mods include Invasion:1944: http://www.moddb.com/mods/invasion-19441 If you don't mind paying you can try this ArmA 2 WW2 mod: Iron Front: http://ironfront.deepsilver.com/en/ Quote
