I haven't played much Foxhole, but I remember a few months ago all the logistics players held a game-wide strike to force the devs to make playing logistics more fun. Entire sections of the front line unable to do any war stuff because the guys making their guns and tanks went on strike.
I'd imagine, like all internet war games, it's infested with cringe racist losers and wehraboos, but I also imagine it would be very fun with friends to play with.
Thats fucking incredible lmao. if only american workers were as motivated as american treat enjoyers
It sounds fun but at the same time every single WW1/2 themed video game I've played has had the most fucking disgusting wehraboo playerbase with half of the usernames either being Hitler1488 or combinations of slurs :agony-deep:
It does, to the point that the standard procedure when wehraboo types try to speak is for dozens of people to spam "cum" in the global chat to disrupt whatever disgusting stuff they are trying to say.
Fun fact: The logistics players who just drive trucks, mine resources, move equipment around, and build stuff all went on strike demanding changes in the way logistics works. The game completely collapsed for like an entire month because nothing happens without logistics making it happen. The devs implemented numerous requested changes to end the strike.
It's pretty fun, but I never got as much out of it as I could have since I only had one friend to play with, and the clan he wanted to join was kinda sus and I wasn't down. Joining a larger group to take advantage of the team crafting is a must
That would be cool. Im not exactly interested to try it with randoms buuut I would be open to try it with other site members.
May have to check it out, love the idea of a giant persistent multiplayer war you can contribute to in various ways
Yeah, I actually did play EVE for a while and did enjoy it although I was never too good at it and it did start to feel like a bit of a second job after a while (albeit a much more fun one than my main job). Still always interested to hear about the various wars and political goings on in it though, player controlled persistent worlds are fascinating to me.
I always thought it would be kinda cool to try and spark a revolution in EVE and see how much space you could conquer for a worker owned 'Empire' but it would take a shit ton of effort from a lot of people that would be better spent trying to do praxis IRL, haha
Usually the kicker for me in these games is the ridiculous amount of time they require. I tried playing Eve years ago and started getting mmo grinding flashbacks when I got to the asteroid mining intro quest and noped out of there. Reading about stuff that happens in the game is way more entertaining, like when some spy seduced a guild leader and then stole a bunch of their shit.

Yeah, agreed, I've spent way too many hours on Youtube deep dives into that sort of thing
I booted it up once. Global chat or whatever was popping off about how we should gas the jews. Tons of racial slurs and "41%" style comments. Refunded immediately. This was about a year ago.
Holy fuck is this game complicated. Kind of annoyed that player-made guides are kind of mandatory. The in-game tutorial is one of the most unintuitive experiences I've seen recently, especially for the logistical gameplay. It seems like such a good time sink but it's been a long time since I've played a game that frontloads this much learning
I played it a good bit when it first came out. The community, at least at the time, seemed pretty cool. Extremely helpful to new players and welcoming.
I stopped playing when they made a change that the things you built would eventually decay and disappear off the map. I played logi and would break it up by building infrastructure around our backfield, and just lost my enthusiasm feeling like I was doing it for literally nothing all of a sudden.
Yeah, but I see both sides of it. Before you would have an unbelievable amount of spam to drive your trucks around from every place there was a front at some point. Although I considered that minus to be a plus because it felt like you were really delivering supplies through a deliberately unnavigable web of layered fortifications. Sometimes you would have to angle the truck a certain way to squeeze through two pillboxes to follow the path making up the main artery to the forward camps. Fun.
This actually looks like it'd be pretty fun. I don't usually like these kindsa games but it's got a different and cool vibe to it doesn't it.
COLONIALS RULE WARDENS DROOL!
REMEMBER FORT ALASKA! SUCK IT BLUEBERRIES!
Coming back to say damn you OP
I couldn't get into Foxhole so I tried out Hell Let Loose and now I know true despair
Man this is so tempting but
steam

For those playing it with fellow bears, what's it like and how many bears do we have? If we had enough people could we have our own platoon?
We have 20 or so people in the discord so far and it's incredibly fun with comrades
