How many hours did you put into Panzer Corps so far?

Post by kop101 »

Considering overwhelming amount of high quality content released (both official and user made) I'm sure some passionate veterans here have over 2000 hrs :) . You can check total hours played on your steam profile or just estimate.

Personally I own PzC since several months after release and had to learn this kind of game from scratch (no prior PG experience). I took a big break from playing at some point so in total I have about 50 hours before and 80 hrs on steam. Obviously this is totally worth the money. Several month ago back to playing again so hours are still counting.

Share your stories :)

My steam says ~200, but it is only my non-modded copy that has only been used since 2014. I would say 1000 or so otherwise.

I also bought shortly after release and played a lot, before taking a long break of about 1 year. By then the grand campaigns were released and i got back into it in a big way. Then my computer broke and i didn't keep evidence of my purchase details :(

So i took another break before picking it up during the last Steam Christmas sale. I just bought the base campaign as i am only interested in mods at the moment, so dont need any of the add-ons. I have about 200 hours clocked up on steam, so i guess if i was to add the time spent on my old computer it would be around 600 hours. Just imagine if i'd used that time to do something constructive like learn another language!! Haha. :p

How dare you even consider that! PzC is by far the best use of your time!!

On Steam right now 420 hours, at least the same amount before Panzer Corps appeared on Steam. Still my favorite game... :)

No telling here. I don't play on Steam. Undoubtedly, the price of the game is well worth whatever I paid for it given the estimated hundreds of hours of entertainment value I've enjoyed. There aren't many other games in that league for me.

Bought the game soon after release. Played through vanilla 3 times on different difficulties finally unlocked Manstein. Played all Grand Campaign DLC, AK and AC at least twice and now playing Akula's, McGuba's and Niki's mods. Not on Steam so don't know exactly but probably approaching 1000 hours.

I hope even that will be going up fairly soon!

That would be a better alternative than some money per mod download! Though if they did that Slitherine would go out of business!

Currently on Steam I have 174.2 hrs last two weeks / 1,001 hrs on record. This does not include hours prior to Steam which I would approximate an additional 700hrs. So a total of 1701hrs.

Currently playing 1941 - just won my 2nd game - 1 as Axis & 1 Allied - currently have 6 others in play.

Does anyone have the 1941c mod - I need it - or direct me to its location.

Just got Order of Battle Pacific - I am sure to add even more hours now - I'm going to start a coffee IV and colostomy bag. lol

According to steam, 1259 hours, played through AK, AC, and a few times through the GC taking the different paths.. plus a lot of scenario testing.

Yeeeah that's a lot.

Edit: Amusingly just hit 1939 hours when I decided to start up a new run of the Grand Campaign again.

All versions of Panzer General, all remakes + all versions of Panzer Corps = thousands, thousands and thousands from 1994 on. :)

Ohhhhhh wait. Wait... We're counting PG & PG2?? I need some scratch paper. And a spread sheet.

I'll get back to you when I'm done running the numbers. It may be awhile.

A lot! Less than Civ 5, but starting to add up to enough to annoy my wife. This game has enormous replay value for me. Edge of the seat drama.

I'm semi-retired, and she still works, so I have time to do chores and play games. I watch a lot of sports. I read, and am always on a political website somewhere. But this game has taken a huge divot out of my Me Time. And I like it! :D

I am a long-time player of Panzer General, back to the first game, even had People's General and 3D. Panzer Corps has even more replay value, and that's where it's at. I compare every game to Civ 2. Back in the mid-90's, I played Civ2 for weeks, hours a day. And would start a new game way before I finished. As has been said previously on this board, there is a massive amount of role-playing in this game. Like Civ 2 and that settler/warrior start, I'm very paternal about my army. I want them to be the greatest army in the world, even knowing they could never win the war. It will get to a point where they will all be killed and I'll try to be a better general next time. Guys, that's replayability. It's what gaming is for me. Immersion.

I'm actually studying to get better? An old dog still learning new tricks.

Does the nebelwerfer make the noise? :mrgreen:
