Roadmap          About the Game            It's 1983\. The tensions between NATO and the USSR have  reached their breaking point , and the Cold War has quickly turned into an  all\-out conflict across Europe \. Take the side of NATO or Warsaw Pact forces in an authentic, realistic, yet accessible online first person tactical shooter\.   Welcome to '83\!      🪖 40 vs 40 large scale battles with infantry, vehicles, tanks and fire missions  🪖 30 to 40 minute matches that take you straight to action  🪖 Objective focused, squad\-based team gameplay  🪖 Team Commanders guide their faction to victory in an RTS\-style metagame  🪖 Era authentic weapons and equipment with realistic handling and lethality  🪖 Spiritual successor to Rising Storm 2 Vietnam    Need to know more? Let's go\! 👇                 Spiritual successor to the Rising Storm series\.   When we say that '83 is a  spiritual successor to the Rising Storm series , it's not only the accessible realism approach that makes '83 worth that title\. Members of our team have worked on all previous Rising Storm titles, and also on the  Red Orchestra  franchise\. Some of us have been in the biz of developing accessible realism games for the past 15 years\.    It's just what we do best  \.           Squads, objectives, and fast time to action\.   Games in the tactical/mil\-sim shooter genre are usually a huge time sink\.  Everybody loves Tarkov and Arma but\.\.\. not everyone can game 100 hours a week, or afford to prep for a match for XYZ minutes \- only to   die instantly\!     '83 is mindful of  your time\. It skips the dull parts commonly present in realistic games, takes you to action fast, but does not neglect the lethality of war\.    You can absolutely still die fast  , but should that happen, you're back in business within a minute or two\. You might want to avoid the dying though, your squad needs you and every death matters, as the matches are only  30\-40 minutes long \!  The tactical aspect of '83 lies in the objective focused flow of every match that  simply requires teamwork to win \. Clutch situations when capturing key objectives on the map can be solved with smart flanks, diversions, or well\-timed fire missions, all coordinated across multiple squads within a team\.   Authentic firepower\.   As with any tactical shooter, the selection of gear matters and can make a difference in '83\. However, the point is   not   to experience gear fear\. You can customize your loadout, but there are predefined  classes \(including a team commander\!\) that set some boundaries in order to strike a balance across factions\.          There is a large selection of weapons and other gadgets, each meticulously designed and animated according to their real life counterpart\. Also, the weapons behave in a realistic way: the barrels and suppressors overheat when rapid firing, machineguns are better deployed on a stable surface, and bullets don't magically teleport in between magazines when you reload a half\-empty one\.  Sounds like a game you want to play? Great\!  Please add '83 to your Steam wishlist, and let's stay in touch\!
