My paternal grandfather fought in WW1. He came away with a purple heart after being shot during a gas attack. He apparently spent months in recovery, and when he got back into the US, his dad basically told him he had spent too much time on his back and needed to get a job...
My great grandfather, a first-generation Irish-American, somehow proved his worth during training to promote him to 2nd Lt (the US army was desperate for officers and would try to pick out good enough soldiers to promote before sendoff) and commanded a machinegun company. He saw the Argonne offensive and was at the receiving end of many gas attacks. He got to know French soldiers really well and formed a bond with some of them, as well as being very protective of his own men. After the war he served as an instructor on machinegun operations, then retired from the military and worked as a Forman at an aluminum factory during WWII.
@@aronbeke9341 i get what you are trying to say mate and father MAYBE meant that in the end but still there are far better ways to get that line across reather than sounding like a complete asshole.
@@zombieranger3410 My grandfather was third generation Irish-American, and he was in the signal corps. We are lucky to have some pictures from his training down in Georgia.

Actually SplatterCat, The Black Chevrons are just showing the CAP on combat power. Cus each soldier has 1 to 3 Chevrons. The More Red Chevrons the better. The Chevrons fill up as they go though Rehab. Cus the Combat Power (indicated by Chevrons) is also directly related to their Draft Value and Moral Value. So if they are worth 3 Drafts, they have 3 combat power. The Tiredness of your Surgeons PROBABLY does matter.
Maybe. But the thing that make it confusing is the choice of color. Usually, red means a negative stat or a penalty (as the rest of the general UI implies).
@ttsymphonyg I'd much more expect black to represent nothing than red. If you see a bar that could be leveled up and its empty, wouldnt you think it's good to have it higher?
@@Bino9898 As I said, in the other UI elements, red is a negative status, so you don't want any red in your stats. In addition, having a graphical stat with black and "blank" with no explanation or context, is as ambiguous as it can get, because both can represent cap, max, current or empty, and there's no way to know it. On top of that, is in a critical gameplay component. Again, is a design decision that can be forgiven with a simple "2/3" tooltip or changing colors, or something easy to do, but now, it is confusing.
Price is $30, currently 10% off to $27. I like the WWI concept, and that you are dealing with the behind the scenes of the war instead of the usual front line, which might be why you did not get to control any of that, because they are not focusing on it. I am not very good at these type of games, but I always like to try them anyhow, and I will likely check this one out when the price is a bit lower.
i wonder if the surgeons' exhaustion level affects the outcome. i mean. they are surgeons. one little flick of the wrist and an artery is gushing and he's dead.
EVERY TH-camr I watched was sponsored by this game. Looks really cool. Im watching this, because its Splat... Who does watch Splat, regardless of content?
Looks like something I'll throw down on a wishlist. Now I could imagine this game being rethemed to Korea and have you running a M.A.S.H unit. With little trucks delivering wounded and also emergency choppered in wounded as well. Its also an often forgotten conflict in favour of Vietnam.
21:09 Amputation is a thing you want for better survival. It can give you a better survival odds and be faster then a conventional treatment. Better to remove the bodypart with a infected wound, then letting the infection kill the patient. Only downside is that it (should) make frontline work impossible, but that just gives you more people for HQ and release.
I'm not a doctor, it would be nice to get one's professional opinion, but I've been around enough people with gnarly war wounds. I suspect that many if not most of the patients at a stage where amputation is being considered will be away from the front lines for a long time regardless. Whether by infection or tissue trauma, that soldier is likely to need considerable healing time followed by rehabilitation. Someone released from a long hospital stay is no longer physically conditioned for the physicality, not to mention filth and malnutrition, of trench warfare.
from my understanding is loose the limb and save the person or roll the dice on infection and it could kill the person from infection spreading onto the blood.
im honest. Just by watching this it gives kind of a Frostpunk vibe. With the shaders, the meter on top with events, the "10bad and 10 good"-meter and so on. Ofc without the build your city element but all in all realy feeling like frostpunk. Still looks great and fun ^^
Hey man, loving your content (just showed up in the feed a few days ago). You seem to have a similar attitude towards games that I do - give me unique and interesting settings and problems to solve! Show me a new kind of gameplay mix! Love it, keep it up.
I could be wrong, but in every game I’ve ever seen good is whatever color fills from the bottom, regardless of what the actual color is, so in all likelihood the red chevrons is better
This game seems like the Devs played Frostpunk and thought it was too fun and delightful, so they thought they could do depressing better. I say well done team, well done.
These kind of games show you how easy decisions can be made when you aren't physically making the choice. it does show light on goverments across time and space
There's a listed price when I went to steam: CA$39, so probably US$30. There's no mention of battle control in the features, so at that price point Splat's recommendation (which makes sense to me) is that it's not worth it.
This game is so macabre. Having grown up with grandparents from that time period ..The badly wounded were given porcealian face masks to cover up their injurys. So a guy could lose his eyes or jaw..and they would slap that on and say you are a normal member of society now. 😗
I don't want to say anything incorrect (Any HMs out there who know the details speak up!), but my understanding is that there's big differences between military triage and civilian triage. In a civilian context, the big decision is cutting off care of people who are very unlikely to survive even if extraordinary measures are taken if it means giving care to other people who are likely to survive if they receive immediate care. But in combat, you have situations like "This guy's got a piece of shrapnel in his face, but he's not going to bleed to death. If we give him immediate treatment, we can put a gun back in his hands and send him back to the front." That arguably would take priority over a guy who, best case scenario, is gonna be in a wheelchair for the rest of their life. It's morally challenging to say the least.
that guy's name was QiQuiang Wai and he was a Brigadier? Ah yes, lots of Chinese Brigadier Generals in Europe during WW1. what in the AI generated name list is going on in this game?
He was also Flemish by birth. The names, backgrounds, units, birthplaces appear to be completely randomized and have no connection to each other. All the Frenchmen seemed to have British names. It is very strange.
Devs have the diversity thing going on there. There's a post about it on their steam page, didn't bother to read it, but I expect those weird placement of nationalities to be common. Not AI fault.
Let's not go there, shall we? There were less than 5% female physicians serving during WW1, and most of them were in the home front, not front-line. It's stupidly rare to see more than 1 female nurse in the same war hospital, since all of them were under civil contracts, having been rejected from the army and reserves. It wasn't even until the end of the world that they were enlisted. It is also unusual to see women in the battlefront in general, but you don't talk about the diversity here, do you? Then you have the issue where 1/3 of serving personnel in ww1 were black, with 19% serving as combat units. Don't see many blacks, do you? Like I said, don't go there. As for the Chinese, they sent about 140k laborers. I'm not saying this game isn't diverse and inaccurate of history, I'm saying there are many diverse things you don't point out, only making headway for your own bias.
@@acevaver5425 I'll chime in and say that I don't care how many female nurses there are, other than it makes sense to include them. As long as it's not completely overpowering the historical narrative, I am fine. It would be even better to note that difference from game and reality in some kind of lore notes, loading screens etc. If you think about it, the majority of military units must have been fairly plain and boring looking, with little exceptional qualities, while the few stand-outs are what we want to write fiction about. That doesn't mean "realism" ought to roll the dice on a small chance to get a squad that has interesting dialogue. Include the diversities, and explain why it's included. Leaning too heavily into things like nationality or culture can certainly run the risk of being insensitive caricatures, but throwing random Chinese names on French officers is the silent evil of a lack of effort. I will gladly take insensitive attempts over lazy inclusivity.
Another game that was released before it was ready has a few bugs. After about 1:30 minutes into the game, when you stop getting pop-up game tips and your second surgeon, they both stop operating on patients and let them die, and they are well rested; nothing is wrong with them. and your patients and Jeeps start to pile up, and nothing happens. It's a great game, but tell they fix the bugs. It is unplayable after the 1:30-minute mark.
I don't know if its the fault of the game for being a little too realistic, or splatter's for juts not GROKKING what WW1 field medical success rates really mean. "For a serviceman who joined the army at the beginning of the war the probability of survival to the end of the conflict is 0.74 for officers and 0.85 for other ranks."
07:19 I know it's mainly fluff text, Burford Whitaker is presumably 37 years old, widower and has 1 child. Since I wasn't able to find the median age of men becoming father during the 1900 to 1910s I take the median of women giving birth to their first child at 21 during the time. The fathers were most often a few years older than the mothers. Puts the child roughly at 14. I don't know much about the draft restrictions back in the days of the USA and given the fact the widower state is already known during enlistment, the kid was probably even younger. What would have driven Burford Whitaker to the decision to enlist anway? Leaving the child in whatever care there was, maybe only knew of the kid but never met, massive poverty? etc. And would these thoughts have influence on your (as the player) personal decision, if you are going to operate someone to send them back home or not? And yes that's the amount of thought my brain puts into things thrown at it during consumption of any entertainment, being it reading, videogames, film etc. Thanks for the fantastic video Splat.
Adulthood (18 y/o) is a modern invention. I would go as far and say that in 1918, most 14 year olds were more grown up than many 30 year olds nowadays. A friends great grandmother gave birth at age 16 while her husband was enlisted at age 27. Apparently she often mentioned he was the best choice in her life, aka she chose him. You can't really compare modern standards with a time over 100 years ago. Also unlike today, back then families were bigger and better connected than today, often several generations living together. Today everyone wants to live in "solitude" (at least in the most part of the western world).
That's what I was hoping too. There's a lot of room for improvement variation if others wanna try their hand at the genre. Upon thinking about it, a Civil War medic game a la the beginning of Dances With Wolves would be interesting.
in WW1 and to a lesser extent WW2 morphine was limited so if someone was destined to die you give them nothing and save the resources for people you can help. the reason less morale is lost is when you put someone in the dead pile people expect them to die and when they do it isn't a surprise. people moaning as they die isn't great, but when you understand that they are going to die it isn't as bad. in Vietnam and other wars the troops didn't understand that stuff so they didn't handle expected dead people dying as well, most likely due to the cultural shift and the heavy use of unwilling conscripts that didn't have the right head space for war.
lol the chevrons are not the rank... it has the rank in the description. the part where he looked at the warrant officer and was like "hes not very strong" an released him was hilarious
The game looks good except for names! I dont really care about the anglocentric and also sinocentric naming, seems odd as a history buff but I can deal with it. When I saw a bloke from the trenches called Linda emersion was destroyed. My mum was called Linda.
Judging by the video seems like it's no chevron then black then red. If you pay attention there was no soldier with reds and gray(none) but there were black and gray and black and red. Unless I'm already too old to tell
checked this out on steam, recent reviews are "mostly negative" because of the fact that the game is unplayable due to bugs. dont buy this game till its fixed
2:44 you have a brigadier here and you get to decide their fate? In the US that’s the same rank as a brigadier general or one star general. What rank does someone in charge off a medical field hospital usually gets?
This game looks really really really interesting... but looks also like one of those games, that have potential to break me (This War of Mine or comes to mind)
I almost feel like “Field Medic” is a catchier title than War Hospital. But I guess if most of the gameplay is in the hospital rather than the trenches then that would explain why they chose that name
There is a game that is called Field Medic in the works that is actually about being in the trenches trying to stabilize and recover wounded soldiers in an active battlefield. Honestly, that game probably has the better claim to that name since you are literally a Field Medic.
I have this game wishlisted, reviews are littered with complaints about game breaking bugs; anyone played and finished this recently? Would love to know if the game is stable now.
What is that smoke coming out from the op ward? Is that supposed to be from like.. heat? Just and odd color for smoke. I would hope it's not dust, cause that would be the easiest way to tell your patients they are going to die from infection. :P
Splatt almost always will be streaming the game from the most recent video on Twitch on the day the vid is published. Get on that stream, it's a good time.
confused by why/how you think 'expectant' means they're about to die, 3rd generation doctor and have only heard that term for someone about to give birth...
Several years ago I had to take a mass casualty training course because of my job at the time. It mostly dealt with getting people to the secure rooms and evacuation, but they did touch on the casualty and triage part a little bit. Mostly learning terminology and legal ramifications of trying to help the wounded. Expectant was one of the terms we were taught for the dead and those expected to die no matter the level of care they received. We were told expectant patients had no priority for triage care.
At first I was really interested in this in hopes of finding some nice continuation for those Last Train Home vibes. Instead I found rainbows.. and if there are rainbows there is an attempt to twist source material to serve deranged purposes. I dont support twisted movements attempts to siphon validation from crypts of those honourably deceased.

Amputation was the main reason to release soldiers from active duty in WWI.
It was stated on the card for researching it that the soldier would be unable to be assigned to combat duty as a result.
from my understanding is loose the limb and save the person or roll the dice on infection and it could kill the person from infection spreading onto the blood.
@@unhackerthelaziestbastardo6083Good catch, I missed it
It's a desperation simulation, like This War of Mine.

2:44 you have a brigadier here and you get to decide their fate? In the US that’s the same rank as a brigadier general or one star general. What rank does someone in charge off a medical field hospital usually gets?
This game looks really really really interesting... but looks also like one of those games, that have potential to break me (This War of Mine or comes to mind)
Hmm.. Game warning you that one doctor is super tired... Patients keep dying... I wonder if they are related..
I almost feel like “Field Medic” is a catchier title than War Hospital. But I guess if most of the gameplay is in the hospital rather than the trenches then that would explain why they chose that name
There is a game that is called Field Medic in the works that is actually about being in the trenches trying to stabilize and recover wounded soldiers in an active battlefield. Honestly, that game probably has the better claim to that name since you are literally a Field Medic.
I'd expect a game thats called "Field medic" to be a first or third person field medic gameplay and not a top down RTS game.
The game doesn't show you the difference between a good soldier and a bad soldier.
That's because good soldiers follow orders.
I have this game wishlisted, reviews are littered with complaints about game breaking bugs; anyone played and finished this recently? Would love to know if the game is stable now.
Wonder if you get returning people if you send them to the front again.
What is that smoke coming out from the op ward? Is that supposed to be from like.. heat? Just and odd color for smoke. I would hope it's not dust, cause that would be the easiest way to tell your patients they are going to die from infection. :P
Little too depressing for me, but interesting idea for a game.
it is $27 with a paid DLC already out for $5
"path on"?
Also: Pretty sure Lt. Kumar is an AI voice.
I was very stoked for this game, but the reviews are turning me off to it. I’m keeping it on the wishlist for now though just to see if it gets better
Hey great game are you going to play more ?
Splatt almost always will be streaming the game from the most recent video on Twitch on the day the vid is published. Get on that stream, it's a good time.
Dope
he's dead Jim
Shevruns.
Did the first chapter glitch on you guys? Won't let me continue
In reality everyone was put in box one.
It doesn't look ready for 1.0
Change this up a little to make a M.A.S.H game
🖤
comment for the comment god!
Oh? MASH the game but in WWI?
I didn't like replying to this It had a definite Ich factor.
confused by why/how you think 'expectant' means they're about to die, 3rd generation doctor and have only heard that term for someone about to give birth...
Several years ago I had to take a mass casualty training course because of my job at the time. It mostly dealt with getting people to the secure rooms and evacuation, but they did touch on the casualty and triage part a little bit. Mostly learning terminology and legal ramifications of trying to help the wounded. Expectant was one of the terms we were taught for the dead and those expected to die no matter the level of care they received. We were told expectant patients had no priority for triage care.
Hmmm but is it post apocalyptic???
It's World War 1, so kinda yes?
M*A*S*H 4077
why is it so empty?
At first I was really interested in this in hopes of finding some nice continuation for those Last Train Home vibes.
Instead I found rainbows.. and if there are rainbows there is an attempt to twist source material to serve deranged purposes. I dont support twisted movements attempts to siphon validation from crypts of those honourably deceased.
oh screw off with your nonsense
I would just like to take this opportunity to laugh at people who play healer in MMOs
Yikes

@@leaffox6669and the necromancer ensures they are still useful after they die.
