Over The Top: WWI

Featuring a brilliantly cool concept, Over The Top: WWI delivers a wonderfully gritty and immersive historical atmosphere highlighted by its highly satisfying trench-digging mechanics. But while molding the mud to evade incoming artillery is a blast at first, the game is heavily limited in providing truly innovative gameplay, quickly devolving into a repetitive and sluggish grind. It’s a tragic shame, because without more dynamic gameplay to keep things fresh, the player counts are plummeting—meaning this incredibly unique indie experience is likely dying out.

Пущка бомба! Как Танненберг и Verdun - до того как они это превратили в говнобатлу своим сумасшедшим экшеном Asonzo!

holdfast: nations at war if it were good and a proper ww1 game. can dig and emplace wherever. little janky but thats part of the fun.

Эта игра нишевая, массовые казуалы тут не удержутся, но мне игра безумно зашла, это очень оригинальный игровой опыт. В игре есть много недостатков, ну и онлайн тут тоже едва ли живой, но если вы выловите полный сервер, то... не знаю какие у вас будут эмоции. Мне игра понравилась, но я не могу ее рекомедовать, так как тут очень сложно сказать, понравится она вам или нет. В общем, берите на свой страх и риск для кошелька.

I’ve been maining Engineer since I picked this game up, and honestly it’s been the most fun I’ve had in a multiplayer game in a while. Being the guy digging trenches, putting up barbed wire, repairing bunkers, and trying to hold a line while everything around you is getting blown apart never gets old. When your team actually uses the defenses you build, it feels awesome. You can genuinely change how a battle plays out just by building in the right spots. The best part is how every match ends up looking different. A field that’s wide open at the start can turn into a maze of trenches, craters, and fortifications by the end. It creates some really memorable moments. It’s definitely not perfect, though. There are still some bugs, movement can be a little janky around trenches, and it can be frustrating when nobody on your team bothers helping with construction. Engineer especially depends on teammates understanding what you’re trying to do. Even with those issues, I keep coming back because there really isn’t another game that scratches this itch. If the devs keep updating it and polishing the rough edges, I could easily see this becoming one of my favorite WW1 games. 8/10. Easy recommendation if you like teamwork and don’t mind playing support instead of chasing kills.

Great Chaotic fun. matches can sometimes get one sided when another team steamrolls you, but the game seems to be in a good place following the post-launch update

This game is great! I love the digging mechanic, and the point system feels fair and balanced. I have some complaints, however: 1. Reloading animations always start from 0 bullets even if you haven't emptied your weapon - This one is the worst to me, because it's usually very quick to top off your ammo when you are pinned, but instead, you have to cycle through the whole animation before being able to fire again 2. No iron sights - I know this one is constantly mentioned in this community, but I personally believe it's especially relevant now that there is a hardcore mode, which restricts the player to the first person perspective mode 3. Performance isn't really the best (not as bad as Gallipoli, worse than Isonzo) 4. Tanks just do not work in singleplayer because you need a driver/gunner to move and shoot. Maybe this could be waived in offline games so one person can operate both simultaneously with a point reduction to balance it out?

Хорошая, веселая, но очень недооцененная игра. Онлайн маленький, на пике только один сервер бывает заполнен. Надеюсь, игра станет более популярной, а не загнется
