Can you please post more recent youtube videos as from what I have seen so far, I am not impressed enough to purchase this game.

BUT things may have improved in the game since April 10, the last youtube video uploaded for viewing?

Is this a standalone game?
Will there be an Eastern Front version in future (RUS v GER)?
What are the DLC plans for this game?

I see single AI tanks advancing towards the enemy, across totally open fields or airfields, where they can be picked off easily... hardly "realistic"?

I mean, I'm very interested in this game, but I really need to see it working better. Thanks

You could always open Youtube and type Steel Division in the search bar - the first page of videos has about 10 videos that have been posted by players in the past week!

INTERESTING!
Using google chrome, I get the most recent youtube videos as you suggest.

But I was using firefox and this is my result:

Please don't get me wrong but your internet skills could use a little practise. ;)

You can just search Youtube directly and filter by upload date/recent uploads like this:
https://www.youtube.com/results?sp=CAI%3D&q=steel+division
Google also has a dedicated video search and can be configured to only search in a certain timeframe (like "Last Week") if you click the "Tools" button.

TL;DR: There's plenty of recent gameplay videos.
I personally like VulcanHDs videos to get an impression of the game, but it seems he mostly casts victories with his coordinated team vs random players so things can be a bit onesided. Hesko is great for competitive 1vs1 casts.

Is this a standalone game?
Will there be an Eastern Front version in future (RUS v GER)?
What are the DLC plans for this game?
Yes.
No idea about the rest - We don't know yet.

That needs to be checked but since the game is in Early Access, can't it be refunded even after more than 2 hours' play? As long as it hasn't yet released?
Steel Division is a PRE-ORDER, AFAIK Steam purchases can be refunded up-to it's release on May 23rd.

As a pre-order BONUS, you get access to the Open Beta, play time in Open Beta does not affect the ability to refund.

Early Access titles have different T&C's and are normally subject to Steam's 2 hr/2 week refund limit i.e. ARK: Survival Evolved

It really depends what kind of game you are expecting.

If you have Wargame-series experience and had a good time playing, you can't go wrong with this title.

There are many neat tools and funtions implemented and some core mechanics have dramatically changed- for the better.

If you don't like Wargame style- stay clear! It's not CoH.

concerning future DLCs and expansions, you can bet your ass off there's gotta be some. Its PDX after all. Eastern front being the most obvious. But if it will be standalone- who knows. And there's nothing confirmed for sure. Game isn't even full released yet.

Will there be an Eastern Front version in future (RUS v GER)?

Geezus, if I had a T-34 for every time I saw this goddamn question asked I could beat Germany in a tank battle.

No. They're not going to make it. No one likes Russia. No one likes Kursk. Stalingrad was all luck.

Now please buy Steel Division: Normandy '44 so they can make a game about the Eastern Front.

No matter the browser, if you are using Google to search, click the "More" button, then "Search Tools" button. You should see a drop down that initially says "Any Time" which you can change to several presets such as, "Past week" or "Past 24 hours"
