- Is Foxhole worth playing in 2022? This video provides an in depth look at the gameplay to help you make an informed decision.
If you enjoy Strategy and World War Two games you may have heard of Foxhole. This game has intense front line combat, and detailed logistics, with a variety of roles there's surely something for everyone.
If the idea of a 24/7 persistent war interests you, with a deep set of mechanics akin to a 4x strategy title such as Hearts of Iron 4, communication and squad play of Hell Let Loose and top down view of Company of Heroes, then Foxhole is worth a closer look. But is it worth the money? Is it worth the time it would take to learn the various mechanics?

13:48 Final summary - who will enjoy Foxhole?
I'm a big strategy game fan, any game with tanks, planes, and BIG BATTLES will get my attention, but does Foxhole get the mix right? I've purchased the game and played it for many hours to help you decide, is Foxhole worth it? We look at all aspects of the game, the big picture, the small picture, the game mechanics, and how it compares to other games such as Hell Let Loose and Company of Heroes.
There were so many other details I could have included in this amazing, huge, bombastic war game. The more you carry, the slower you move and eventually you end up falling over! Each time you reload you expend the whole magazine, so choose wisely! Have you been considering Foxhole? It's not right for everyone, but strategy and shooty war fans should seriously consider it, especially in the next sale! Any questions, let me know :)
No AntiCheat in a Multiplayergame is a big fat red Flag
@@morsetsk that's a good point, though I've not heard of or witnessed cheating in Foxhole. Not saying it doesn't exist of course
@@morsetsk only “cheating” ive ever seen is alting which is illegal and usually gets the alt banned so uh more like one of those tiny hand flags rather than your “big fat” one. If you don’t like it that’s fine but there’s more law in the game than most games with anti cheat🤷♂️
@@morsetsk with my 500 hours on the game i can tell you i have never seen a hacker
@@twiglets2 so is this basically a top down Planetside 2?
I love this game so much; it's so addicting which makes time go so fast. The only major problem I had is that I attended a war (war 83) from start to finish for a month with friends; we logged in everyday and averaged 8hrs a day and when the war finally came to an end with almost 300 hours in just one war; we became so burnt out that we weren't able to play the game for half a year.
Me and my friends are like that, the trick is to find enough games like that so you can just rotate.
That's like 30% of the community. You commit to a single war so after grinding for a month it can be taxing.
i know that feeling, bro
@@noble7065 I'm glad it's not just me, mind me asking which games you rotate? Personally Hell Let Loose and Foxhole are proving a good combination, then probably something totally different like Hearts of Iron!
@hamza khalil Yes I'm with you on that one, I tend to do the same with all games! Though Foxhole is good at making me feel guilty for not logging on as I can see the map moving all the time while I'm away!
I have been playing this for 2 days…. This is the military game I have been looking for all my life. I am no good at it, it’s extremely overwhelming… but sitting on the front lines, watching the ebb and flow of the gaining of territory, coupled with the rush of engineers and logistics personnel who rush to fortify positions you just took, only to watch it slowly be lost to the enemy force….. my god. This game is amazing!
I was at a front line yesterday, went back to do some logistics and was in awe of the sheer number of the logistics trucks waiting to get into that area, the commitment from logistics is amazing and I'm sure I'm still only scratching the surface!
@@twiglets2 the coordinated efforts by everyone in this game is out of this world… I have never seen such cooperation in a multiplayer game before. It is literally like watching a well oiled machine go to work.
I was in the Linn March area yesterday around the ustaria (can’t remember if this is right but it started with a U) falls area, I was there for 6 + hours,for the first half of the time, we were all bottle necked on opposite sides of a broken bridge. This lasted a good 3 hours. Then we broke through and pushed all the way to their base by some ranch area. We fortified and built up the areas and bridges behind us. The enemy had flanked around our position at about the 5 hour mark, it started with just a few pot shots at our logistics guys from a ridge, we took them out, and more troops just kept pouring in, they found a weak spot and exploited it, about an hour later we were back at the bridge we started at, it was destroyed again, and we were just trying to hold the choke point.
When I realized we were back where we started from 6 hours ago, I instantly fell in love with this game. This is a gaming experience like none other in my life. And I’m an old head who started playing video games on the most advanced console of the time….. an Atari!
@@HomeDefender30 great story! It sounds painful and amazing at the same time haha I ran a bit of logistics today but hope to spend some time on the front line tomorrow.
I'm glad you found a game that speaks to you like Foxhole does!
@@HomeDefender30 Ulster Falls is imo the most fun region to fight in
The massive forest in most of it prevents somewhat stale trench fights, and provides massive flanking ability lol.
In war 89 I picked up some new guys and got them in a LT (light tank) at Hermit's Rest, we fought there for what felt like hours lol. Sometime during the fight, about 6 collie tanks were lining up at the southern road leading into Hermit's, and there were only 2 friendly tank holding there. My tank was still in the forest west of the road, and saw the road fight going down. We quickly rushed over there and preformed one of the best flanks I've seen, ending in us having killed 1 bardiche and 3 spathas, which ended their armor superiority there.
10/10 would flank again.
@@soni3608 I’ve definitely become emotionally invested in that region. It’s just amazing seeing the ever changing landscape of that frontline everytime I log in.
I spent 4 hours in a trench getting shelled by heavy artillery. 10/10 Would beg enemy to stop shelling me again.
Haha those damn shells! I want to try being a part of an artillery crew, though it's an intimidating prospect, I would definitely be the guy that drops the shell and blows us up!
@@twiglets2 It isn't too hard. Tho most Artillery Batteries are crewed by Clans. There's a good chunk that goes into coordinating artillery barrages, namely the crafting, transporting, and crewing of the artillery pieces. An hour of staggered shelling requires an hour of prep if not more. There's also some hidden variables that go into it that effect the accuracy. If you want to play around with indirect firing, I recommend starting with mortar teams and spotting for them before upgrading to sterner stuff
@@RL-aWildDucky Ahhhhh that's a great idea! I've toyed with a mortar already so that's waay less intimidating, thanks for the tips!
Btw what side are you on?
@@RL-aWildDucky I have done this only once yet but it was worth it, we wrecked the impoertant parts of an all concrete base... actually we over preped and have still 3/4 of our amm left.
Another great thing about this game and it's community is, if you play in the same area for an extended period of time you'll start to recognize people. Some of my favorite moments in this game are when I find the guy I showed how to do logi after he's a Lt Col. and it's been 5 wars
Absolutely, I'm noticing that more and more! There is a particular guy called "Boob" (difficult to forget that name) who's often running around in the same place as us, and he's become somewhat a minor celebrity in my friendship group even though we have no idea who they are. It's great.
Damn... I have been playing on and off the last 5 years since games launch, over 1000 hours.. I am still just Lt mostly from frontline commends, which are a rare nectar indeed..
I love this because in most other wargames it’s either rts style, or a scripted first person game. This game manages to take the strategy and non scriptedness of an rts but make everyone an individual soldier. It’s not just one omnipotent god controlling everything, it’s teams of hundreds having to effectively work together.
Absolutely, it looks odd at first glance but it works really well. Someone told me it originally started as an over the shoulder third person shooter, I reckon they made a great decision going for the top down view.
Excellent username by the way!
I’ve always wanted a game like this! RTS combined with RPG/FPS. But it’s hard to execute and deliver successfully.
My mind was totally boggled at first, the scope of the game is huge and so reliant on the players...but it works!
I'd recommend looking into the mount and blade games. RTS/RPG/Optionl FPS medieval war game. Its like an rpg overworld, with rts elements. When you enter combat, its turn into an action game where you can command the army you've been raising and managing.
Nice summary... Only been playing a few weeks, but absolutely loving it!
Logi logi logi logi logi!
Great reviews. Professional, objective, with clear and steady voiceover, no annoying background music and no pop-ups, no notifications. Subbed.
Thank you S K, your comment means a lot. There's a certain pressure to speak a million words a second and play loads of music, as that's what everybody else seems to do, but I don't think I could bring myself to do it!
If you have any suggestions for future games, please feel free to let me know in a comment, it'll definitely go on the list!
@@twiglets2 Thanks for responding, I usually play the reviews in small window beside my art painting software to have something calming to listen to.
As for games I mostly play the old and obscure now and then. If you wanted to do something like that, a Swarm (1998 simple, but quite atmospheric space shooter which can get quite challenging on insane difficulty [sadly needs dxwnd to run on some modern systems, and "gold" version of the game is quite broken]), and State of War (2001 RTS where you capture pre-spawned buildings by destroying them [with quite relaxing 1vs1 MP available through the annoying to set up emulated serial port connection]) are a thing for a quick video.
I’ve seen this game grow and go from strength to strength, two shards, then one mega shard. Get it people, there is no other experience like it. My first war was the one where the wardens nuked themselves a couple years ago.
Jadecove?
@@aceaszwall8333 that was the one!
@@spookyt8692 Legendary event I did not serve in it but I soon learned of it even tho I joined a very long time after the event happened
@@aceaszwall8333 I just remember the colonials being really hyped that they nuked themselevs and that’s when I realised this game was banging. The community makes it. The actual issues of supply lines ect, amazing. I was also part of a 6 strong logi convoy, but I was the only one to make it past the encirclement :(
@@spookyt8692 Hold up, why were people nuking themselves? THERE ARE NUKES IN THIS GAME?!?!
I saw what looked like a V2 rocket, was that it???
Great summery, thought i still feel the Foxhole would qualify as an RTS, (an MMO RTS), just one in which you dont control all units on your side, just a single unit.
But otherwise that was a great recap, was very drawn in.
Hey man, your videos have been so helpful as I've been learning the game, thanks for putting them together and won't lie, a little star struck right now, your approval means a lot!
@@twiglets2 ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ
It BECOMES an RTS once you become a squad leader or even a regiment commander, A far more realistic RTS than any other because the units you are commanding aren’t AI but real people. And what’s more is that real life leadership skills and knowledge of real military doctrine apply here and enhance the gameplay.
@@sebastianpost7237 I have yet to experience that level of beauty in this game, but now I know it exists, I look forward to it!
This guy comes out in foxhole commercials!:D
As someone who's played too long, I will give a warning: The deeper you go into understanding the game, the more you start to hate it. Your entire success or failure regarding the game relies on the contributions of everyone else. And when people start to take those sacrifices of time and effort for granted, the most productive pieces of the war machine stop playing, and you've lost the war.
Honestly, if there were any game on the market that was truly anti war right now, It'd be Foxhole. You suddenly realize how much war costs in the grand scheme of things, and why we can't have nice things in real life. Of course people who log on, get blown up on the front several times, and log off don't see this and they don't care. But those who put in the most effort are having the least amount of fun, because by the time they want to travel to the front for their own fun, there's nothing because everyone else spent all the resources they created, and nobody will go to fill in the vacancy left in logistics.
It sounds like a heavy weight on your shoulders playing logistics. I've definitely taken for granted the 1,000 mammons and thousand of bmats. It saddens me to think logistics players not having their fair share of fun on the front line, I'll be sure to thank them even more for deliveries than I already do!
@@twiglets2 I don't want a thanks. I want priority queue. If I build a base in a region, then I should be able to log on and supply/protect it. This is why everyone hates building these days, because they can't get on to even use the bases they built and operate from, unless it's a dead region. Bonus points if the enemy reaches a backline logistics region, and you still can't supply your base. Basically, once a region is full of incompetent thrill seekers, that region is lost, because no supplies are gonna get made or get into the region.
@@TarsonTalon I see I see, that would explain the queue of angry logi trucks sat at a border screaming for people to leave the region if they're not doing anything.
@@twiglets2 The thing is people shouldn't have to do that. The mechanics of the game should reflect human nature; while it's one thing to work toward the common goal of victory, it's another to work toward the common goal of trying to overcome bad design. To be fair, Foxhole is a one-of-a-kind game, perhaps the first of its kind, and while of course there's gonna be design hiccups because of it, I can't help but think the devs feel like they can get away with anything, because people do not currently have an alternative. While there obvious balance issues in the game, most of these cannot be solved without locking down the fundamental gameplay loop first.
In addition to mission-critical personal not getting into a region, the border base mechanics actively work against a team securing a region. It's gotten to the point now where we are yelling at people to NOT attack the last relic base in a region, because if they capture it, border bases spawn which the enemy will camp, and then capture to receive free equipment to immediately start another attack without ANY logistics necessary, before we are able to build any defenses. In all honesty, even though it is legitimately playing the game, it would be a bannable offence in any other game, because of just how much it hurts a teams efforts.
All and all, what ticks me off about this game is that far too often, the best contribution a player can make for their team is to LITERALLY NOT PLAY. And that is so very dumb. New players and veteran players are constantly at each other's throats because the new players want to keep attacking, whereas the veterans know it will make us lose unless we prepare and build up. Alts and idiots will even rally new players to go against the team's wishes.
The dumb thing is, even if people DO listen, now they're bored, they leave the game, and the team loses anyway. We can't win with plebs, and we can't win without them. Typically, the team that wins is the one with less incompetence on it, a population advantage, or a tech advantage. The last thing that matters is your own contributions, as incompetence will supersede it. If for example, logistics is great this war, but the people on the front do not build or continually allow the enemy to capture well-supplied bases on the front, guess what? You end up supplying the enemy more than you are your own team. On the opposite side of the spectrum, you could fight as hard as possible, QRF any partisans, and kill dozens of enemy tanks. It doesn't matter if people will not do logistics. The worst thing is when your team does NOTHING. As in, you have all the supplies you could need, you have the entire front locked down...but then they just sit there and DON'T attack, and allow the enemy to continue building up for a counter attack.
Anyways, I hope my rant has been enlightening to some people. While Foxhole is a nice game on the surface, the deeper you dig, the more you start to hate it. It's why I've stopped playing, and just QRF the game feedback Discord, lol.
@@TarsonTalon Thank you for sharing - it's important for potential new players to hear the good and the bad to make an informed decision. If it's not for you, it's not for you!
Out of curiosity, may I ask which game / games you've moved onto after Foxhole?
Twig, I noticed you managed to run and record this video by my clan members, and i have to say i very much apriciate CL being shown in the clips.
I suggest check through all the clans, big or small, and maybe even create your own, or join us at CL - Callahans Legion.
no really, try getting into squads, or if you want to try something, just run to something like a tankline that is made of more "clan men" and ask them, some of them might even help you out and give you pointes on how to do it. Most artilery batterys are almost always out of people who run the shells from "outpost" to the batterys, or even just pulling shells with truck or manually from the 'outpost' and helping load is already being part of the artilery. Tanking is harder to get into, because usually clan prefer to keep it to themselves on that, since tank is a scarse resourse, and you dont want new guys to run into enemy fire and lose like an hour of work... but do ask, and most people will allow you in to atleast commander seat, so you could learn more XD
If you really want to test out Enginiering, or tanking, i suggest the breaktime between wars... the "resistance phase". Cause then you will not affect everyone, and you can learn a lot more(this is mainly for tanking), but the game itself, just run to someone higher up, doing something and ask if you can join, most will almost always accept, since more people, less presure for them xD
i mainly came to tank you for showing my fellow clan mates in action ^_^ i really apriciate it.
Thank you for your suggestions - it means a lot! I would definitely like to become more involved in a clan for more organised warfare, it looks fun!
I will definitely check out Callahans Legion and when resistance phase comes, it's tanking time!
Yeah, every time I log on, the map changes lots. First the greens seem to take over, then the blues. Then back and forth and so on.
All the big stuff seem to happen when I’m offline. I recently missed the fall of Therizio. I wish I was there to take part :(
Same! Whenever I'm online it's a stalemate and I'm throwing myself at a line that won't move. Then I look back a few hours later and boom, totally changed while I was away. I guess that's a good thing? Haha
Haven't watched the video yet, I asked myself the same question a week ago, I bought the game and don't regret it at all. Amazing game, slightly buggy but the best part about it is the community. Every single person you meet there seems like someone you could totally befriend in real life. If you like the idea of the game, then I would recommend the game to you.
Edit: I would also like to mention that lag doesn't seem to be an issue at all( I literally live on the other side of the globe of the servers), so no matter where you live, you will be able have a lag free experience.
oh hi there...
@@MansonMamaril this guy covinced me to buy the game lmao.
Hi btw
Thanks for the comment - I'm sure anyone who reads it will find it useful! Especially interesting what you say about lag as well!
I just find myself saying hello to people now as I haven't actually come across anyone who's a bit of a d*ck (yet!)
@@MansonMamaril I'm liking the bromance here, it's nice!
@@twiglets2 haha
I'm just constantly looking at reddit for new posts asking "should I get this game"... and this fellow was one of them...
I just look at their reddit post history and If I see they were involved in r/place in any way shape or form it's an automatic "you were involved in r/place... yes buy the game because putting/expanding/defending a pixel is similar to what we do..."
(although I stopped playing because InternetManBad...)
I love everything about this game so much, it's on the top of my wishlist
There’s so much to like about this game, it’s scale, flexibility, aesthetics and diversity of various roles.
God, I wanted to love it so much…the reason I didn’t was because ultimately it didn’t respect my time as a player.
It’s SO easy to get killed and every time you are, you’ve got to start FROM SCRATCH…EVERY TIME.
This means spawning at a base, and having to re-equip everything you’ve just lost (and re-equipping takes time…you have to select a gun, ammunition for it, you need to load that ammunition into the gun, then select a uniform depending on the role you’ve chosen to respawn as, equip a gas mask, grab bandages, grab grenades, and the more you carry, the slower you move leaving you more vulnerable to being killed).
You leave the base with all this done and you can VERY easily be killed within 30 seconds….then it’s rinse and repeat the above.
If a game is not going to respect my time, I’m not going to respect it.
That's any Mil sim. Imagine being a real GI. Months of training and travel and getting blown up in your landing craft before doing anything. I get why it isn't for everyone
@@chardaskie but to be fair Chard, other Mil Sim’s may make it easy for you to die, just like in real life, as you pointed out, but they don’t put you through the rigmarole of having to “equip-up” every time you die, which is where Foxhole takes the piss imo. It’s such a waste of time to be jumping through those hoops EVERY time you die.
@@thedudeabides3138 Arma
Really good reviews! Keep up the good work!
Thank you my friend - that means a lot!
Hear the advice from a Level 19, retired 40 wars plus veteran Lieutenant Colonel:
If you have a reliable job, a family or someone you care about living with you, don't play this game.
Is it good? Yes, spectacularly amazing. But this game is literal computer program version of cocaine, i spent over 3000 hours on it and it sucked me dry, nearly ruined my career, until my pal talked me out of it, i swear to never return.
It's a game that demands dedication, you cannot achieve anything by just log in and play every an hour or so, and you can't do it alone, it's a game that requires cooperation and communication, and most of all, time. Your assumed "self-control" is nothing but dust when you sink into this game, there's no getting out
Been playing Foxhole for many years, since the early days of the pre-alpha. Love the game
The only thing that annoys me is that I didn't discover this game sooner. From a brief look on Steam I assume it was an RTS *doh!*
If you don't mind me asking, which role / roles do you usually play?
@@twiglets2 majority of the time I build defences, I use to do it as part of a clan but now I do it solo, running my own logistics to help fuel my building. On rare occasions I spent 12 hours building defences. Before those days I would do a mix of front line gameplay and logi driving. I enjoy it a lot
@@jessicajsk7757 That sounds awesome. Something that confuses me about building that you may be able to help with. How do you decide where to build a base, and what kind of base to build?
I take it for granted that the bases are already there and well designed by builders who know what they're doing. But you see some of these huge huge bases and think - this must have taken so long, how did they know this was a good spot in the first place...or is there no such thing as a bad spot for a well defended base?!
@@twiglets2 good spots for bases:
Crossroads that are vital for logi
Big open fields defending town bases/relic bases
Bridges and hills nearby (like the hill at Mercy's Wail in Allods Blight)
Hills that prevent the enemy from pushing a certain area
Any choke point that partisans or flankers can push
Scrap fields/mines
@@soni3608 Thanks for the description, that makes a lot of sense! To be fair, the whole game makes a lot of sense it's just all a bit overwhelming at first, it feels like I'm having a constant brain far most of the time - thanks for the pointers!
God I hate living in Iran
Even tho I work I can't put a single penny into steam to buy games to enjoy
The only games I have access to are either free ones or pirated ones (which have no way of playing them online)😑
Btw thank you for the video very informative 👍🙏
کلید تی اف 2 از سایت ها بخر و بفروش، یا از سایت ها بخر، من الان این بازی رو دارم با خیلیا دیگه، فکر کنم دو تا تی اف 2 کی بس باشه واسش
Never subscribed faster. Such a nice detailed review which has been set up well.
Thank you so much, I hope you found it useful, and please feel free to suggest other games in the future!
This video was so well done I thought you had something like 200K subscribers. Well done, I subbed!
Thank you for your kind words, and of course for the sub too! The video has done rather better than I was expecting, very humbled by it, but a long way to go yet haha
If you ever think of a game that needs looking at, please feel free to let me know :)
Joining a war mid war as a new player was overwhelming for me at first. Not being able to understand the current situation and strategy makes it really difficult to contribute at first
I totally agree, when the first war ends and you start a new one for the first time, everything makes so much more sense!
So I think you somehow missed reading "Shirts". Shirts are actually "Soldier Supplies" but the icon looks like a uniform shirt, so people call them shirts for concise callouts. Soldier Supplies are supposed to be like all the amenities a soldier would need, so its rations, clean clothes, etc etc.
Thank you for clearing that up, I was very confused why they were called and looked like shirts! I see now that they are "soldier supplies" which makes much more sense.
Quality review! I got Foxhole in 2017 for $20.1000+ hours later, it's one of the best games I've bought in terms of value for money, and it's not even fully released yet. It left a very strong impression on me since day one so I love seeing people experience the game for the first time even after having played it for so long.
There's really no other game quite like it out right now. It offers a unique team PvP/coop experience in an MMO framework with RTS scale and considerations. An experiment in anarchic self-organization for the purpose of committing war crimes. :P
Haha daaaamn now that IS value for money! I'm not surprised though, I've spoken to a lot of players who have sunk so much time into this game and still want more. I'm finding playing it on rotation with Hell Let Loose works well for me, they have similar vibes but are different enough to keep things fresh
So you can pretty much play as a rear echelon soldier supporting the frontline infantry players? That's pretty cool
Exactly that - personally I like to mix it up, I may start a game creating weapons and supplies, drive them to the front line and join the fight from there. But the logistics system is so in depth that many players only create / deliver resources & equipment. If a front is under supplied it's as good as lost in most cases. A great experience!
I play foxhole on and off with months long gaps between playtimes. The amount of changes I see through each one of the wars I fight in is absolutely insane. First war I fought in people were fighting in the open, then the next war I join huge lines of trenches are being built, then the next war I find out there are nukes in the game?? Foxhole is definitely one the most unique games out there, and I remember vividly every single one of the skirmishes/battles I've been a part in.
Have you seen the trains etc etc in the new update? It looks crazy and will hopefully bring a bunch of players back / bring new players in!
good review i would say this clans are a huge part of foxhole they decide the tech trees and they mostly decide where attacks are going to be made. Most clans are friendly and always looking to recruit but some clans can be unbareable to be around and some of those are the biggest clans.
Thanks for the extra info.
I've struggled to find a group so I can take part in bigger battles. I suspect the issue is I'm not committed to playing consistently, just want to pick it up every now and again and it would be nice to join others when I can. I understand most clans want at least some commitment!
If you play this game and am a warden join the 27th they are a good group stay away from siege. The game is really fun for a solo player but nothing gets done unless a clan does it
Been playing almost a month now. My favorite video game!
About the same as me, it really draws you in doesn't it! Wardens or Colonials?
When Foxhole released , you could steal peoples trucks and just annoy them by blocking roads and you could do so much more , but that has now been lost with the new updates over the years :(
thank you for this review, it was very prefessional! Heard a lot of bad things about the game, but still want to pick it up just to try, your review definitely helped. Also, it was very considerate of you to mention the addicting nature of the game, now something you see very often reviewers do, so thanks for that as well
Thank you for your kind words, it means a lot! I wasn't sure if I should mention the addicting nature, but as I was feeling it myself I thought it best to include it. I'm glad you found it useful!
What bad things may I ask?
Looked for a video to explain the game to a friend who never heard of it. I think this one is doin a pretty good job for it - even years later.
To anybody watching the video, they are adding on to the logistics system, its a factorio system now.
It's both exciting and mind boggling - train and factory systems with pipelines etc It sounds crazy haha
I liked this review for focusing on game elements vs drama that dies out over time, and telling me things I want to know like price point and value! ggwp!
@crashdashdee Thank you, glad you found it useful!
I liked this game when I first played it when it came out mainly being a medic or collecting supplies/making things ( this role got boring quick) .
shortly after the first 50 hours of playing learning all the tricks and how to do things , the gun play just drove me around the bend getting killed by enemy that would normal be in my vision in a fps like in HLL I just not see them at all or are not on my screen at all then having to respawn collect some weapons do it all again got really tedious (especially fighting over same location for 5-10hours) think if it was an FPS or RTS with the same scale and style of graphics I would totally get behind but right now .
I can definitely understand where you're coming from. I haven't played it for that long but I already understand that bridge battles, for example, are insanely boring affairs!
To be honest I'm trying not to play it too often so as not to get bored, which is difficult as I tend to over play games!
Are you considering a comeback or happy to stick with HLL?
@@twiglets2 i think it was bridge battle with a town battle on the other side which made me dislike the combat. I do play foxhole every so often when I get really really bored of everything feel like I need to change things up , But I mostly play HLL I always go back to this game religiously especially as I can now play it on console and PC .
@@Resistantkillers I like your style, apart from the occasional tantrum because I'm an arty megnet I consistently enjoy HLL!
Maybe see you on the Battlefield
I have nearly 3,000 hours in the game with playing for nearly 3 years and after playing so much of the game one issue I’ve always had is that the game sometimes feels like a job. You spend hours making a bunker just for your team to let it be destroyed the next day. I love this game but every issue is amplified with how burnt out I am.
It's great to hear from such an experienced player - thank you. I've heard this from several players, I'm glad to be hearing of it now as I'm still relatively new, and will either play the game on rotation with others, or perhaps simple sit out a particular war to give myself a break. Do you think that would help relieve the burn out?
@@twiglets2 if you play a very stressful war then you should definitely sit the next one out. But if you want to keep playing then just do less stressful stuff for less amount of time. It’s mainly depends on how much time your willing to sink in to avoid a burnout. Or even if you are playing a lot sit a war out even if you don’t want to. That’s also a good way to avoid burnout.
@@jessfrog4834 Play Logi for a month, play a mindless member of a swarm of bayonet charging idiots for the next one.
As a Warden, our soldier supplies which we use to spawn should be called skirts
I couldn't agree more
I think there should be a war, then a few mounths as a break. You get so burnt out after a war, then another one starts. Its a really fun game though
I've yet to see the end of a war, so I don't know exactly what happens - I kept it vague and said there is "down time" haha. What happens? Can you still login and have a fight before the new war starts?
Is the new war a case of everyone starts at the back of the map and just charges forward to claim land?!
@@twiglets2 at the end of a war, there is a few days of break - in this time, the map is reset to the levels at the beginning of the war, and all tech is unlocked, and it's left as a sandbox for people to play in as usual before the phase ends and the next war starts. The problem is so many people quit for those few days that meaningful play more or less disappears, as populations reaches a low level that causes many player-driven systems such as logistics to fail.
the problem is they can't really do it any other way or there would be no new player retention, because nobody wants to buy the game right after a war ends and then be told they can't play it "properly" for nearly a month
@@jenswaring1682 That sounds fun having all technology unlocked, but a big shame that most players leave. Though, if they've been grinding for weeks I can understand they want a break. Perhaps there is something a bit more creative the devs can come up with between wars, something that helps players recover from the fatigue without the player numbers plummeting. An interesting conundrum!
im not a fan of the top-down aesthetics but your review has made me consider picking this up on the next steam summer sale. cheers.
It's the one thing about the game I'm unsure of, but I suppose I'm simply used to it by now. I'm glad you found the review useful and will be interested to hear if you end up making a purchase in the summer sale!
Our entire active duty & reserve gaming league began playing this several years ago. Burnout comes very quickly when we realized there is no definitive progress (captured & secured) assets. Eventually, we found regiment structure useless, and opted to create secret offline structure in Special Operations (SO) which is essentially "Partisan"-- and deployed exclusively into enemy's backyard. After awhile, the grind just wears everyone out. Our 300+ group disbanded and abandoned this game.
That's an interesting viewpoint to hear, thanks for sharing. The more I play, I'm increasingly convinced this game needs to be on a rotation with other games for it to have real longevity.
I found this game fun, but the bugs are annoying ( especially the fps bugs that slow your game to a crawl and rendering issues when near big bunkers), and the community is sometimes a little toxic. Loved your review man
Thank you! Yeah it's by no means perfect, I get performance issues often but difficult to tell if it's my potato machine! Do you plan to go back to it at some point?
as a foxhole player, this is a GREAT review, and I intend to use it when showing potential new players what this game is about
Thank you that means a lot! I am conscious that it is becoming less relevant with the upcoming changes so I'll be making a new video covering the new trains etc - thanks for taking the time to comment!
@@twiglets2 lol what a guy, reading and responding 4 months after putting out the video
I have hundreds of hours in this game and i struggle to see anything you've missed or gotten wrong here. Excellent work! I will say though if theres one thing that hurts about this game its that you will find times where you put significant time and effort towards something and have it completely blow up in your face with no payoff at all (building your own tank and losing it as soon as you get to battle, making a base and having it destroyed, winning a long hard fight only to lose that ground, etc). You win some you lose some, but in this game you really feel those wins and losses
@@TheYognaut64 Thank you it's great to hear an experienced player say that!
I couldn't agree more, I play with a few friends and we don't really know what we're doing, but often when we've invested a lot of time it blows up in our faces.
However, being part of a Mammon rush is definitely in my top 10 gaming experiences ever!
Incredible breakdown! Thanks for the inspiration!! And I think because of this I'm gonna snag it! Much love human!
I'm glad you found it useful and hope you enjoy the game!
Thank you very much for this well structured and informative review! Also your voice is calm and realy nice to listen to!
Thank you Lipot I hope it was useful! If there are any other games you would like a video on please let me know, I'm always looking for suggestions!
@@twiglets2 I'm watching a lot of Warhammer Chaos Gates Videos right now, don't know if that could peak your interest. :)
@@Askir28 I'm a big fan of Warhammer so very interested in that game! Are you still deciding whether to purchase it?
That shirt comment reminded me the remake of" all quiet on the western front" where they d take the uniforms from dead soldiers, patch em up and give em to new soldiers ;p
Great video, If I can add a few extra pointers to expand on what you touched on, There is no DLC, there will never be DLC and there is no loot boxes or pay to win features. The devs are extremely against this business model.
Various people will have no problem taking you under their wing and teaching you the proper meta when it comes to some things on the base building side. For example, the layout of the base, you want it to effectively block assaults, but not choke your own players from moving around.
Don't stand behind tanks! They will run you over and they will yell at you for being there in the first place... mostly, some may apologize..
Rank does mean one thing for the most part, it means if you have a question abut something in game, you can bother one of the high ranks and they can teach you lol.
Thanks for adding those in - very useful! Are you going to play tonight for the 1.0 release? I've not played in a while but we're very excited for it!
@@twiglets2 I missed out on launch, I was busy with work. I did get to play a little tonight, it wasn't much, both sides barely unlocked field guns, and I took the liberty to destroy one at a bridge before logging out.
@@LordRuric That sounds like a decent achievement for the night. I'm still rather new to the big picture of Foxhole, but it seems to me early war with few unlocks is a bit....boring? I've had some fun moments with mass infantry charges but for me it's all about the mortar which I think takes time to unlock?
This is hands down one of the best reviews i have ever watched, i love your unbiased opinion and great explanation of the game, without shitting on the visuals like other review do.
Thank you my friend, that means a lot! I always take feedback onboard (both good and bad!) so it's great to hear what you think. If you would like me to look at any other games please do let me know!
@@twiglets2 you better look at revenfield. it is an extremely moddable fps game. It is quite boring to watch, but it is a shit ton of fun to play. It can also run a potato.
@@deranged_tofu_slab3781 Omg that game looks nuts! Being able to fly a plane sounds awesome, or are they massively overpowered?
@@twiglets2 no not really, mostly because they are hard to learn how to fly, but when the AI does, it is quite cool. Also this game relies on mods, like base game is ehh, because it was made for mods. So if you do end up reviewing this game, It has to be done so with mods in mind.
@@deranged_tofu_slab3781 that sounds awesome thanks for the heads up! I'll definitely be looking at it and will ensure the mods are included!
My favorite memory in foxhole is when I was repairing a trench in the field in front of the abandoned ward city. I would get hit by a morter each time I repaired a specific trench piece. It got so bad that I'd bring so teammates over and could count down to the point I'd get hit by that artillery team. I have never hated a morter team more then I did then. Good times :) also the many stories and events of this game make it feel so much more alive! Gunning down wardens screaming "remember jadecove!" Was glorious!
Haha amazing! Hopefully the game goes from strength to strength from here on in, but I'm intimidating by all this factory and train building, perhaps I can just admire it from afar.
@@twiglets2 you and me both! I'm making a train and chain gang Playlist to play in-game for when we start making rails! Thanks for the review!
Awesome review. Thank you very much for the video. Once again you put much effort into your research and videos. :)
Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment Shane - it's good to know when I've done a good job and keeps the momentum up!
Very nice review, i cant believe i didnt find this game earlier.. I will BUY it next week and start playing!
Thank you I hope you found it useful. There's a big update on the way for Foxhole so it's a great time to get involved!
Great vid, been getting recommended foxhole for a while but have put it off my radar until now simply because of its price. I'm seriously considering getting it now and this helped 😅.
@_smiler_294 thank you and I'm glad it helped!
Foxhole is a very special game but in my opinion it's best if you have friends to play foxhole with, or you are happy working with strangers on the game.
Playing solo is possible but on the whole less popular than playing on groups and clans
As somone who would never play a top down shooter before this. I got the game 4 days ago and was immediately addicted. Absolute banger of a game this!
Also nice vid, hope the algorithm gods throw you some help :)
Haha cheers buddy me too! It's a great game abut easy to play too much if you know what I mean, the burnout is real so just bear that in mind. Especially good if you can find people to play with too :)
Imo no, you are not missing anything. It is or you are not playing enough and not have fun or play too much and make operations etc but it takes up too much time. I am hoping for an update which makes the game easier: aiming is a mystery, weapons should be a stockpile and not individual guns as well as ammo, I know it's impossible but one big server would be soooo good, but no different server each hexagon and commending is bullshit.
My one complaint is that it takes up so much of your time. It's a very time demanding game which is fine for some, but not for all. Everyone on the same server would be crazy - I hope they do that one day!
Great review of the game. Saw this mentioned on another game review and considered it. Will defo try it after this review. Sounds really interesting to play with lots of cool touches, nuances and a variety of gameplay approaches to undertake!
It's great fun to play! There is some negativity in the community at the moment after a recent update, but that mostly centers around the logistics gameplay. It's still fun to join in the battle, particularly with friends or if you're happy to communicate with randoms over your mic. Lots of nice people to play alongside!
Why do the English always make the best informative videos. Well done!
Thank you! I hope you found it useful.
crazy how a feature list gets called a review
Absolutely crazy!
This is awesome thanks for this, deffinitly going to get this especially after the inferno update! Your video solidified it for me!
Thank you - I'm glad it helped and I hope you enjoy the game! Let us know how you get on :)
There are so many good reviews of this unique game, yet I am still skeptikal I would actually enjoy it.
It's a difficult decision, and the only way to know for sure is to try! It's a social game, you can spend time with resources, or shooting people on the front line. If any of that sounds appealing there is a good chance you will like the game. But I suggest waiting for the sale!
For us oldies this is Cannon Fodder on steroids.
After you told abought the war map you can see anytime you want
I can already tell as someone who can get burned out quickly i would NEVER want to check the map when offline.
Yep, it's cool at first but quickly becomes a bad habit so I've stopped checking. Feeling pressure to play when things are going badly for your team is something you don't need!
On the shooting mechanics: it really is a weird thing. Getting constant 420 noscopes in CoD will help you later, once you become adept at the basics, but much of it is in the footwork and liking it is pretty much up to individual tastes.
I've finally had a few breakthrough moments where I'm starting to "get" the shooting mechanics and see some success. But on reflection I think the majority of my initial frustration was purely because I haven't played a game like this before. I'm starting to get over the learning curve and can appreciate how unique it is - while dying slightly less!
I don't think the lowest rank can build stuff so it does help to receive commendations from a gameplay perspective
i got it, and got in a fight on a bridge, ambushed, and my base was attacked. it is so chaotic and fun, would recommend. (Also suppliers saved us with a uniform delivery
Sounds like you had fun! I enjoy being a logi driver and being the one that can save the day by delivering the right equipment when it's needed, who needs the glory of the front line? Haha
Ive played this game for a long time and i love it, it truly is a completely unique experience and has the best community in gaming ive ever seen.
However, my 1 warning is: dont go to the reddit. For some reason everyone with a bad attitude goes there to complain and it does not reflect the in game community at all.
0:38 nah warden eat babies raw, colonial cook first
8:48 you can right click the crate in your truck and submit all too
Hahaha thank you for confirming the baby situation!
Oh yes! I found that out for the first time yesterday, so so much better, thanks for the comment. This game has so much depth I'm not sure I'll ever know everything!
They're making a medieval version of this called Anvil Empires by the same company.
@kettch777 yep keeping a close eye on it! My efforts to be a part of the beta have been unsuccessful so far unfortunately
Great game, absolutely love it. I haven't played it in about 5-6 months as like many you give up huge amounts of time to see a war through and end up getting burnt out, but I always end up coming back.
That's interesting to hear. Would you say you play a war fully, then take a few wars off before getting back in? The more I play the more I think that's a sensible routine to get into, I'm getting too invested!
@@twiglets2 yeah generally I will play 1-2 full wars and then I will have a few off. There are many games I play in-between wars until I'm ready to come back.
@@SuperHATCH11 do you mind me asking which games you play when not playing foxhole? It's useful to know when I'm considering which videos to make next!
@@twiglets2 yeah sure, to name a few, hell let loose, warzone, cities skyline, Jurassic world evolution, DayZ, frost punk, this war of mine.
Mainly play on PC but have a PS5 which I play horizon forbidden west and grand Turismo on.
@@SuperHATCH11 I'm jealous you've managed to get a PS5! Though to be fair I haven't tried in a few months.
I like your style with the line up of games. I'm definitely going to have some HLL and Foxhole content (along side the usual strategy stuff) so I hope you enjoy the next video analysing the new HLL map Remagen!
This was very informative, thank you.
Thank you for taking the time to comment, I'm glad it was useful!
for the record, the strike went off after the devs have put some quality of life improvement
Thank you for clarifying!
All I can say is that the one time me and the boys defended a surrounded and cut off town with nothing but a bunch of pistols and shitty bunkers while one guy blared military propaganda about never surrendering through his mic was a wild time.
The fact we forced them to gas us out when all we had were pistols is kind of hilarious.
Now that sounds like how Foxhole should be player, jealous I wasn't there to experience it!
Worth mentioning that to this day the devs REFUSE to add an option to disable motion blur!
How random, any idea why they would refuse to do that?
@@twiglets2 I don't know. You used to be able to edit the .ini config file to disable it, but one day they updated the game to remove that feature :(
1.0 just came out about 2 months ago and is very different from when this review was put out
If it sounded interesting you should definitely try it now
@lordgong4980 I'm tempted to put an updated review together to reflect the changes...but there's a lot of negativity about at the moment, especially towards facilities and I'm kinda hoping the developers will address this and improve the game significantly in the coming months.
That's my hope anyway...then I can make a new and very positive review!
As a colonial I must say I have fought every day of this war. My commitment has been to defend callums keep. There’s no fight nobler. If you get this game and like to fight an uphill battle join the Colonials
Nice recruitment drive there. I hope you have a nice break once this war has finished!
for myself, doc-job in tankcrew REG is not bad form beginning. for me form 1st at war 50 'till now, i'm still happy to play this one.
TBH, i play as doc so far form war 55 but no any gun if not necessarily (but i look a nade is 1st more then any gun)
for anyone who want army play-story, but it form by players, PTSD Simulator real timelease all-out war yep, we welcome
for peace
--Mailsail, Doc of SIEGE REG.
Highly recommend setting up some macros in autohotkey or you'll burn out after a few weeks.
Ooo interesting tell me more please? What sort of thing would you recommend? Sounds complicated!
Just avoid Reddit, all you will get is people from both sides complaining that the other side is OP depending on who is winning or who came back. Every time a new tech is unlocked and one side makes a push all you will hear is people crying. Also lot's of people seem to give up once losing and just stop playing, earlier the wardens stopped playing as they were getting crushed this war and it looked like the Collies any day could run us down. But some dedicated players kept the fight going and now the wardens are on the cusp of victory. It is up there for one of the best comeback wars
Thanks for the heads up, I did notice a lot of "heated debates" shall we say! I did think it was typical that I chose the team that was losing, but it's looking promising at the moment! Not that I've done much other than die most of the time, but being a target is useful right?!
@@twiglets2 I try to be a balanced player now that I learned everything. Did a war completely as logi scrooping and learning how to mpf, taking iron ships, dunne trucks and flatbeds with shipping containers to the front lines and depots and seaports. Then learned how to bunker build in another war and tank and use arty. Now being part of a major clan I go where needed and help plan ops
@@claytongarred3870 It sounds like a long journey, would you say it's worth it when you get to a point of knowing how to play the full spectrum?
@@twiglets2 having played since war 19 (was collie 19-24, been ward ever since) and done just about everything besides nuke ops
Hell ye lol, game definitely has problems but is great nonetheless
@@soni3608 The concept is a bit mind blowing, to be fair I can forgive a few problems given how the rest of it seems very solid, to me at least!
With groups, this game can feal so awesome because strategy is applied to attempt great offensives and have enormous battles.
Do you find these groups through Discord? I usually play with two or three friends but it's difficult to achieve anything with such low numbers!
@@twiglets2 I mean i don't use discord for this game yet because I can sometimes stop playing for a long time or play alot, but I have seen another youtuber i think once assembled a big server with his subscribers and was able to decide on a place of battle.
@@dapizzasnake8462 It sounds fun!
This is a fantastic summary and review, great video!
Thank you so much - I hope you found it useful!
The game really shines when you join active clans who do operations and random shenanigans
I'm hoping to find one that isn't too serious. I want to experience a full on artillery bombardment but it seems that's very difficult without a clan!
This games great. Everything you use is made by someone. Community is friendly all working to a common goal. Because it's persistent it means you'll need to not only work with those who are playing when you are but even plan with people in another time zone to make sure the next shift of soldiers know what to do
So much potentially to have a deep experience with this game. I would say the only draw back of that is the burnout and feeling like you MUST play. I'm sure some players enjoy that, but others find it a bit much and need to take a break from time to time.
Great review. Its style reminds me of TotalBiscuit's. Keep up the good work.
Wow that means a lot! TotalBiscuit's videos have really influenced me so thank you :)
@@twiglets2 I'm glad that you are following in his footsteps, as he was a great reviewer. Keep it up. You've earned yourself a new subscriber. :)
0:42 Excuse me, but as a proud Warden for most of my time, WE are the baby eaters, not the Colonials
Praise Calahan!
This was a fantastic review. 10/10. Great job.
@shoecrown7330 Thank you! Do you play Foxhole or are you considering playing?
@@twiglets2 I got Running With Rifles recently and was looking for similar content. It seems like Foxhole is a deeper implementation of a similar concept. I may give it a shot if there’s a Steam sale. I was just really impressed with how you structured and presented this review.
I also really liked your Homeworld 3 video about the dev updates. I agree that it’s really interesting to get a window into the tools they use to build the game. It’s also a testament to the level of detail they’re considering, which I think is a good sign. Moreso, it’s nice to provide kudos where kudos is due. It’s much easier to complain. I don’t think praise generates the same sort of views, but it’s refreshing to see conveyed.
Just to add, you mention how 'rank doesn't do anything'. Your rank determines your ability to form squads, regiments, etc. So you need to be a cpl to form squads, Sgt to make regiments etc.
Thanks for the comment - I absolutely did not appreciate that! I've only just started to look into regiments etc more seriously so that's very useful, and hopefully potential new players will see your comment so they're more up to date - thanks!
What hold on... wardens are the baby eating devils not the colonials🙂
Is that what the Colonials told you??
@@twiglets2 yes but let me guess you have also heard that we eat babies from the wardens🙂
@@alfredibsen4678 ....damn it.....you're right!
@@twiglets2 Shit now im a warden
@@alfredibsen4678 Oh damn, are you feeling okay?!
How does the game deal with alts? I know it was a problem in the Planetside games until they bought in time restrictions between switching sides.
I'm perhaps not best placed to answer the question but alts are a problem. From what I've read there isn't much that the devs do (or can do) so the players have taken it into their own hands. Reporting / banning. It's difficult to know what can be done though!
Another one of your videos and another game added to the wishlist!!!
Brilliant review, just downloading it now. Thank you 😊
Thank you! I'm glad you found it useful and hope you enjoy the game :) Right now a war has just finished, I believe a new one starts in a day or so, which may be confusing for a new player - just a heads up!
I purchase this game after checking out videos like this. To tell the truth either you love this game or you hate. I bought and I absolutely hate it. It's like going for work. The tutorial is bad, like all these type of games. There is a huge variety of roles, which you don't know how to play them even badly or at all. There is a huge variety of materials to gather and mine and one thousand ways to produce vehicles. But again you know of them. You get confused all the tiem with the stations and substations and materials. The game is about 90% logistics and gathering and 10% actions. Sure you can go to the battlefield of course. Again there is nowhere to find how or where to fight. Y9u just follow other people and die usually. Something 8n the learning process I guess by still super difficult. Very hard to cope with where to resupply, which ammo is for which rifle, many times over y9u get the wrong ammo because there isn't always an easy reference for the ammo of the gun. What's the difference of med kit and how to use, what's the difference of bandage and when to use. Yeah, you can 9n the battlefield and fight but you lose like ab9ut 70% of them game as it is oriented mostly to gather resources like in real war. Thus, my frustration thinking to be my next full time online game but no. Even though I play complicated games, this is way to complicated for my taste. I dont want to click all the time over metal to mine it like a worker, I want to have some fun. Mining resources or walking 10 mins to enter a 10 sec battle isn't so mu h fun. I don't know if it is getting better if you play with friends. I don't have friends who play this online so I was alone. I wanted to give a full review as well to deter people like me buying something they won't like. I don't want to say it is a bad game because the opinion is subjective.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I hope others with similar tastes for you find this useful!
Baby eating colonials? Naww that’s the wardens bruv!
Hahaha I had to slip that in there!
@@twiglets2 wardens got femboys clonials got tomboys now tell me which one is better
@@jacktom3799 both
It looks amazing! I wish I had time tho... But I definitely try it out when I can. Thank you for this recommendation.
Yes it definitely does take a bit of time unfortunately! Wars will often last a couple of weeks, sometimes a bit more, and players tend to play regularly for a particular war, then maybe take a break for the next one. You get rather invested in a particular war and it becomes a time pit! It's great fun but be prepared to feel some pressure to log on to stop the enemy taking back what you took from them the night before!
I played the beta and the game i dont play it much tho but time to time i come back to see whats new itz a very good game just to bad that toxic players ruins it but dont let that scare u:)
I was thinking of getting the game just to do the logistics. I don't really like shooters, but I like team based games.
There is certainly a strong chance you'll like the logistics side of the game in that case!
Enjoy these reviews found the HLL review and thought it was a good recap. If you haven’t already been recommended it, Squad is a similar and brilliant game I am enjoying a lot with the latest Australian faction update.
Foxhole is certainly a game I am looking forward to playing in the future
Thanks for taking the time to comment, it means a lot.
I've not heard of Squad and I'm really unsure how, it looks amazing and there are currently 14,000 players online! It's been wishlisted and I hope to pick it up in the next sale! Is it too simplistic to say "hell let loose but modern"?
@@twiglets2 It just had a very successful free weekend with the release of the Aussie’s and a graphic overall prior which has seen a big increase in player count.
Best way I would describe it from playing both. Mainly logistical differences, defence creations and I find it very team team oriented where a good squad leader and squad can change the tied of the whole game
@@twiglets2 - I would defo say its got much more too it, it has the same jump as you might get going from, battlefield to hell let loose, except for hell let loose to squad. I would say generally it has more depth to it, with Base making, many different country and vehicles to use with squad members playing different roles defiantly being a more important in squad then HLL. I also think the medic system is much better in squad, with anyone being able to pick up anyone, but with the caveat of the average soldier can only bring 2 bandidages (which also stops bleeding) and medics are the only ones you can heal someone back to full strength.
@@Rohry27 A shame I missed the free weekend, none the less, I hope to play it soon!
@@alexanderpippington9277 That's a good point about the medic system, I find basically nobody plays medic on HLL and I wonder why...too difficult to get to players to res them perhaps? It feels like a section of the game that could do with an overhaul, but then again, I haven't played it much!
this is a great video, actually made me want to get the game even though I was a bit iffy about it. honestly looks very exciting and i cant wait to get it once I have enough money lolll, spent a bunch on other shit so i have to wait.
It's difficult to get across the rewarding aspects of this game as I believe they lie in the teamwork and communication which can be difficult to get across by watching someone else play.
It's a really fun game but a lot of players say they feel "burn out" after a while so I definitely recommend playing it in rotation with other games so counteract that! I'm sure it will be on sale within the next 6 weeks or so
As a proud shell-shocked PTSD-riddled veteran of this game, I definitely recommend it
thats a great review mate
What about secret tunneling? Could I burrow under enemy lines and dlow them up from beneath?
Unfortunately not, though that sounds like an excellent idea, I hope they introduce that at some point!
@@twiglets2 👌
I soloed tanks from war 15 ish till 75 you can do it you can do anything you want
Fair play. It must be difficult having to switch seats to move / fire though right? We struggle with a fully crewed tank at the best of times!
