Lite means it doesn’t go all the way with simulation and cuts some corners in favor of streamlining gameplay and accessibility reasons, cutting out most of the fat and leaving the “essential” part of the action untouched. What GHPC! is as of right now is a very barebones tank-sim in the vein of what we like to call: The lite. Now, the question is, in its current state, is it worth it?
