Verdun online FINALLY OUT!

[Kushite]

Game looks fun. It reminds me of RO/DH. I guess I'll see you guys on the battlefield. c:

Picked this up during the sale. I must say, though the character models are a little funny looking and it still seems like an unfinished product (which of course it is) the map design is fantastic and advancing on an enemy trench feels great. Needs 24 v 24 though

Ya I picked it up for 75% off on the Flash Sale. Haven't installed it yet but it looks great and the Christmas truce snowball fight thing is a nice touch
How many people are on one server of Domination (or whatever it's called)?

Yeah, the character models and animations are terrible. And there's no German or French voices...that would really add to the atmosphere. Also needs way more players (24v24 is a good start like you say) and different collision detection so that AFK players don't block up trenches.

I like the gameplay though. The guns all feel right, and the maps are pretty good. I've had a lot of very WW1 moments.

Yeah going over the top certainly has a great feel to it, and trench fighting is fun, needs more bayonets though . And King Porus, I didn't have any trouble finding full servers to play on. Last night there was about 500 people on, this morning 400. Like I said, needs some polishing up, but I do think that they've stumbled upon the right idea here.

[King_Porus]

Ya, just played it for 2 hours straight and it was awesome Pretty buggy and some of the things didn't make sense (like not being able to switch squads in-game), and hit detection wasn't great, but still fun, especially when I got in with a good squad on a cool map. The christmas truce snowball fight between rounds was a nice touch

I just don't like how there will be an even number of each class. There should be 1 officer for every 4 riflemen don't you think?

[DarthShizNit]

Well, there are different kind of squads with different load outs, but I get what you're saying. As stated, I think they need to move upwards of at least 48 players instead of just 24. That was get a squad of recon men, 2 assault, and 3 regular riflemen squads, or whatever set up you want. With only 3 squads it's kinda hard to really mix things up I think.

I would just like to say again, obviously needs a ton of work, but even at this stage the game can have some really great moments. I love how futile trying to carry an enemy trench feels, and then the crazy rush of trench fighting.

The Canadians (and British) have arrived! Only took two years lol. The SMLE rapes all.

Still sad the game barely reaches a peak of 100 players online everyday. Imo, the price is a bit high for the content it has. I'm really into WWI (I'm french so yeah, though times for us) but I waited for the price to drop at 6€ during a special sale to pick it up. Also, perhaps they should like War of the Roses with a free version with locked content, let's say you can only create or join a "militia type" unit with just a simple rifle for each soldier. This would raise the interest and the online community.

[DarthShizNit]

There is a free version...

Man the poor Germans no longer stand a chance trying to get across open ground lol. My only worry with this new update is that people won't play the French squads anymore :/

[leviath]

The thing is, it's not really working anymore and it's not available on steam anyway because it's a poor web version.

[DarthShizNit]

New map out today, Artois. Good lord it's fantastic.

[Wulfburk]

Just bought this game and its quite awesome! But hopefully it will get a little more optimized in next patches.

Best map is the bottom one in the map list!

[DarthShizNit]

It was faily optomized until the latest patches, I'm sure it will get back there soon. And that is a great map, that said, Artois really just dominates all.
