*So, which update did you end up joining in? Post below!* Remember if you want to take a look back, here's a full playlist of ALL the updates: th-cam.com/play/PLXScY0GCGmn4OpHsics0IM8pOqXIcFG9s.html
Pre-Alpha, just after the steam release, in like July 2016? Maybe late June. We just had nades, rifles, and the venerable foxhole. (Edit: I forgot the campsites, man those were laggy.)
0.42 was my introduction and its wild to see what I thought was epic and grandiose updates has been such a small amount of overall development since its inception. I love this game!
Wow, this really puts things in perspective. Can’t believe this much development progress has been made…while hundreds to thousands of players were able to play it at the same time. To think most games aren’t seen by players until literally Day 1. I remember when assets were being added every other month. The game’s problems are so complex and interwoven now, but it’s still cool we get to have those moments among it all. Bear, your consistent coverage of this game is one the best any game has had from a single community member. Foxhole and is community is incredibly lucky to have you.
I was there from the very beginning, even before mining had been introduced and it was just shooting, that means before 0.0.8 I don't recall the exact build. Foxhole was absolutely amazing in the earlier days of the game, but unfortunately I have not find it enjoyable anymore these past years. Unfortunately and I can't remember the exact game version, I think my love for the game started to turn around at 0.0.28, when HE grenades were added. Grenades were nerfed against buildings and you had to take HE grenades with you to destroy buildings. It made destroying foxholes and such much more difficult. It slowed the game down, but mostly in a bad way, your biggest enemy was not the enemy soldier, but the AI installation. I played a while longer, but at some point when logicistics became more complicated I just dropped off. I've tried to get back into it a few more times, but the current gameplay where you are fighting over the same piece of ground for 8 hours straight without gaining an inch, it's just not enjoyable anymore. The old 4-hour wars were not ideal either. But at least after a sessions I always had a feeling of accomplishment, I just do not feel that at all anymore. The game is more popular than it was back then though, so a lot of people do enjoy the game the way it is today. Just sad that it's not the game for me anymore.
This was beautiful, ISAB. Thank you for making this video about the update history. It made me nostalgic for my first Foxhole battle in the skirmish of Fisherman's Row in 2017.
What an absolute trip to see the journey as a reminder from someone who joined on the battle tank .2 update. Thank you for always covering Foxhole Bear and congrats to the devs on all the hard work that brought them to 1.0. See you all in 1.0 on the 28th. o7
Брат, я помню, я помню, сервера пустые, я помню маленькую карту, я помню игру 6 лет назад. Из гадкого утёнка, на наших глазах вырос прекрасный лебедь !!! Спасибо за хорошие видео.
Been here since Nov 5, 2017. I remember hopping on my ASUS gaming laptop after school and having so much fun doing logistics and shooting some bad guys. Funnily enough, a warden got me into the game and I played with him at first. But then he stopped playing soon after, and ever since, I’ve stuck with colonials. I just personally like the militarized aesthetic of the colonials. And now that they have their own doctrines and arsenals, those coincidentally appeal to my play style as well. As stressful and tiring as Foxhole can get, I still love the game. I hope the Inferno update brings about a large influx of new players who can enjoy the game too.
Man, it's so interesting to see when different things got added. Especially when seeing different features come and go, and man, when the old Town Halls got removed, it's difficult to comprehend how long that asset had been in the game, and this video really puts that in perspective. Keep up the great content.
I joined WC77 or 79 I thought the game changed alot from winter army to entrenched and now 1.0. I can't beleive how much this game has changed who knows what we will have in another 6 years.
I feel that in recent years, this game seems to have changed from "a role-playing multiplayer interactive game with a strong social atmosphere" to "a characteristic large-scale online multiplayer online game".
@@ThuderDragon2408 Now the social in this game is now closer to the group social of games like EVE or Warcraft, rather than simple communication between individual players
14:42 I actually really miss tunnel networks. I can agree that they had their shortcomings. But the reason I liked them was that it prevented the need to spam bases EVERYWHERE (keep in mind, I started playing after this point so I don’t know what it was like previously. I’m more so comparing what I remember the game being like to how it is now). I personally wish there was a redone system (maybe a bunker?) of tunnel networks that would extend AI range, but maybe only up to a certain limit per base. This would reduce the amount of bases scattered around the map and would make each of them more valuable. I know this would cause it’s own set of issues though so I can see why it likely will never be added back. But I do think something similar to reduce bunker base spam would be nice
I got the game 3 days after gunboats we’re officially added into the game (update 0.6). I’ve been playing since November 5, 2017. It’s crazy to see how this game has evolved
And after all these years you still have the same mic quality, not that it’s bad or anything, and I say I joined after Entrenched came out. Oh wait a second the Cologne tank battle inspired intro, I actually met the gunner of the American tank of that battle he was a nice guy and he and the author of a book that was written about him signed my copy.
Probably ignored comment but hammer wreckage when you find it. That gives significant amounts of bmats and great chance at rmats. If you're simply travelling and see wreckage, fill up your truck/inventory and go to a refinery. It's free materials. Nobody does it, and I have personally done wreckage runs and made multiple tanks from it.
The wind system for artillery was a must. Artillery is still extremely powerful, but it was seriously too easy to just spit out a distance and azimuth and blast a target with little effort. Now, at least, it takes some amount of coordination.
If you had to put a date on it, at what point would you say the game became Foxhole as we know it today? As a player who joined in mid-2022, I look at the 2016 clips and that's *definitely* not Foxhole. Somewhere around 2018, maybe the War Machine update with the continuous global hex map, I started to say "OK now this is Foxhole." But then again around 2020, with buildable trenches and bunkers, OK now *this* is the Foxhole I know. Vets, what do you think?
First time I've ever heard of the dead harvest wonder why they haven't done that recently? Would be cool if they spawned in nuked town once the war concludes with those mechs looks awsome.
Thanks for posting this. Really jogged my memory of foxhole for the past 6 years. I thought i joined 2017 but i joined 2016 0.0.10/0.011. Never played with you then since GMT+8 do be like that but holy fuck its been a fast ride. Seen you like three times over these years. Got attracted by a bluedrake’s foxhole coverage and have been hooked for 3 years since 2016. Then, started losing interest and have been getting on and off until i stopped. Now I’m back for 1.0 cant wait Edit: oh shit Blizmore 9:20. That mf made me a warden main
@@ISawABear cause i used to play in asian timezones. Although i liked playing way past midnight, probably did little to increase the chances of us meeting. I go by mikons in game
Bought the game maybe around WC18 or 19 but to play it and just sat there for a very long time actually played like 2-4 wars from WC34 and onwards, took a break got back when Arms race was out and introduced the Silverhand and Ballista that same war little to no players even made the new assymetric vehicles cause Battle tanks are still superior, as for the last dead harvest event it was ended waaaaay too soon cause most of the Warden players went Colonial and due to experience and pop imbalanced it rolled sideways before a mech was able to be made, 2nd DH war the opposite happened though not many Colonials went Warden it was still a steamroll to the point the mechs only got used or made on resistance phase, kinda sad really
@@ISawABear ahhh i see :D that makes since, one is just gun only. Other needs another item to do the task. And since you read this! AMAZING VIDEO!!!! so much fun to think back on me coming and going with this game as the patches came out, starting in .8
I enjoyed the chronicle of the development of the game. However, the addition of your channel milestones seemed out of place to me and I think the video would have been better without them.

Remember if you want to take a look back, here's a full playlist of ALL the updates: th-cam.com/play/PLXScY0GCGmn4OpHsics0IM8pOqXIcFG9s.html
Was in the game from the start.
I joined right around the war machine update with the battle tanks still around.
I joined in winter army
I joined the week trench warfare was released
Pre-Alpha, just after the steam release, in like July 2016? Maybe late June. We just had nades, rifles, and the venerable foxhole. (Edit: I forgot the campsites, man those were laggy.)
Foxhole is an excellent example that if you make anything with love and commitment you will achieve great things.
0.42 was my introduction and its wild to see what I thought was epic and grandiose updates has been such a small amount of overall development since its inception. I love this game!

Hey and your the most immersive motherf***** of any game community ive seen. I always look forward to more from the Press!
yup he deserve to be part of Foxhole Dev team altho he play a lots as Warden 🤣 ~ Collies Fanatic Fan ~
I’ve only been playing a few months and this is fascinating!
hundreds of thousands? you mean 1-3k per shard? lmao
I just joined with the Inferno update and sided with the Wardens. Very excited to participate in conflicts to come! For Callahan!
Its so nostalgic looking back to the time where we all joined and started playing the game, and to see it now and how far its come. I love this game
Damn I’m getting old😢

Now this was a nice blast from the past 😄
Even though I only have vague memories of pre winter army foxhole I still feel a large a amount of nostalgia for it
Been here since Nov 5, 2017. I remember hopping on my ASUS gaming laptop after school and having so much fun doing logistics and shooting some bad guys. Funnily enough, a warden got me into the game and I played with him at first. But then he stopped playing soon after, and ever since, I’ve stuck with colonials.

same here, started as a blueberry in like september 2017, don’t remember how but i ended up playing collie soon after, haven’t looked back
A blast of the past, really nice to see foxhole grew so much over the years
Nostalgic

I would love to see devs post this on the front page news thread.

i remember 2017 foxhole fun times good memories and im glad im here today to see it now
I feel that in recent years, this game seems to have changed from "a role-playing multiplayer interactive game with a strong social atmosphere" to "a characteristic large-scale online multiplayer online game".
It still has a great social atmosphere
@@ThuderDragon2408 Now the social in this game is now closer to the group social of games like EVE or Warcraft, rather than simple communication between individual players
Remember when you could build sandbags with bmats, and it was a legit strategy to push up with them.
I just started to play this game and i LOVE IT. I only wish they can improve the clunkiness when climbing.
it's so nostalgic watching this. I joined in 2017 and mainly played in skirmish at the time, fun times :)

how about now? XD
Devs U have been by far the BEST INDIE TEAM I CAME ACROSS THE LAST 3-4 YEARS :D
Remember Jade Cove.
I got the game 3 days after gunboats we’re officially added into the game (update 0.6). I’ve been playing since November 5, 2017. It’s crazy to see how this game has evolved
That was really interesting. Thanks for this insight into the history of this excellent game. 👍 + sub

100%
it's been so long long road
32:13 the greatest time i ever experience in this game, it's so much fun
just found your channel,. subbed! this is interesting, watching the whole video!
Hey thanks. Hope you got enough pop corn

Vets, what do you think?
I think many on the dev team would or have agreed with that assessment
First time I've ever heard of the dead harvest wonder why they haven't done that recently? Would be cool if they spawned in nuked town once the war concludes with those mechs looks awsome.
They've not done it the last few years due to the larger updates taking lots of time up.
Ah, the eternal joys of groups of wardens playing chicken with the 2017 at turrets!
Thanks for posting this. Really jogged my memory of foxhole for the past 6 years. I thought i joined 2017 but i joined 2016 0.0.10/0.011.

Edit: oh shit Blizmore 9:20. That mf made me a warden main
How the hell have we both played this long and never bumped into one another?
@@ISawABear cause i used to play in asian timezones. Although i liked playing way past midnight, probably did little to increase the chances of us meeting. I go by mikons in game
@@ISawABear I've played that long as well and even known you were in the same region in recent wars and still haven't crossed your path. 😆
FeelsGoodMan think I started in 0.8. First mmo ive gotten into as I prefer playing solo and am now a col.
I just joined the game last 2 days ago it was fun
True veterans know their history o7 god bless
I saw a bear made a legacy of updates on Foxhole.
0.29 man it was something ...
Bought the game maybe around WC18 or 19 but to play it and just sat there for a very long time actually played like 2-4 wars from WC34 and onwards, took a break got back when Arms race was out and introduced the Silverhand and Ballista that same war little to no players even made the new assymetric vehicles cause Battle tanks are still superior, as for the last dead harvest event it was ended waaaaay too soon cause most of the Warden players went Colonial and due to experience and pop imbalanced it rolled sideways before a mech was able to be made, 2nd DH war the opposite happened though not many Colonials went Warden it was still a steamroll to the point the mechs only got used or made on resistance phase, kinda sad really
Veteran of Faranac campaign feeling old lol
I miss ramping my truck of them old gates. XD
and when shotguns used to be good. :(
One of these days I’m gonna make a mega post time stamping all the grammatical errors
Donit i dare you. Also lots of these were short hand to fit stuff on screen regardless of grammar
@@ISawABear relax am too lazy to search through the entire video to do it
Or am I? *vsauce music*
This feels like the night before you become of legal age to drink.
Jeez it really started to pick up pace in the 2020's.
I was in the first dead harvest but didnt play much
Im sad i didnt find this game earlier , but better late than never i guess ...
I got Bear!
The storm rifle wasn't the first firearm with an alt fire mode, wasn't it the nade launcher?
Mmmm no because the nade launcher was an attachment that couldnt be used on its own. Thats how im choosing to classify it
@@ISawABear ahhh i see :D that makes since, one is just gun only. Other needs another item to do the task.
And since you read this!
AMAZING VIDEO!!!! so much fun to think back on me coming and going with this game as the patches came out, starting in .8
Now I feel old. T-T
4:22 first air
Great video was fun to see how shitty the game used to be alltho the idea was always great.
Losing Multiple base kits by spawn type is the biggest downgrade in history
The only difference was towns proper gave you a rifle and 1 clip
I started around the introduction of trenches. And it was a hell of a flashback to see the tarp foxholes again
to think gates did not exist at launch
Did you see the bear ?
Yes
Wait, where were the AP mines?
Yup
Naval update!
I enjoyed the chronicle of the development of the game. However, the addition of your channel milestones seemed out of place to me and I think the video would have been better without them.
Your hard drive must be a small data center.
This past week with all the video i made brought my main drive down to 14 free gbs
Stay

RPG does not mean rocket proppelled grenade btw. its Rutschnoi Protiwotankowy Granatomjot which means handheld anti tank weapon.
Didn't like the US then make an RPG and just change the acronym to Rocket Propelled Grenade?
RPG means Rocket propelled Grenade in english. its a large category of weapons including not Russian ones.
Man... imagine what the game is going to look like in another 6 years...
