@@Rabhadh His book made my jaw drop. Amazing how many times he was almost killed and his description of it is just intense. Not sure how people can think its a pro- war book when he describes guys getting their heads blown off but 🤷♂️
I love the look and feel of this game, but unfortauntely i've never been able to play it in a full server due to low player count. It's a real shame as this game looks real awesome, like a WW1 HLL or Squad.
That artillery was on point! Not sure if BTW has it but airburst shrapnel shells would make the artillery more deadly as they would explode above trenches sending balls "bullets" flying down into the trenches shredding the men inside.
The French fought insanely hard in ww1. They didn't earn their reputation as cowards until petain betrayed his own people and sold his country to the nazis
@@dylannotsor6955 Pétain didn't "betray" his own people. The majority of the French parliament voted to give him full powers in 1940. He was given power, he didn't take it. You can think whatever you like about the Vichy regime but it was the legitimate french state. The defeat of 1940 was no surprise given the political turmoil during the third republic.
Putting his own people in forced labor camps, sending the jews to Germany, giving into fascism is a betrayal. Hitler was elected, he still betrayed his people in the end, blaming them for his incompetence.
@@dylannotsor6955 Calling it a "betrayal" is dependent on ones own politics. I could argue it was the third republics incompetence that caused the whole debacle. It's not like Pétain or any French nationalist working at Vichy wanted to send french workers to German camps, but it was part of the demands made by Germany. Reducing the Vichy regime to simply sending jews to Germany is reductionist. The Vichy regime had a real ideological framework: Pétain as head of state, all political parties banned, corporatism etc.
Well.......that's the not to do video... When charging, you have to spread the formation. If you move to the enemy in file formation, you have no chance to ever reach your objective. This is simple. In file formation, the enemy had to focus at only one position. He kill the first man, then the next, etc etc. And in modern figth like ww1 with machine gun, i let you think why you have to spread your formation. When your spread your formation, like in line formation, the enemy have to move the aim to one target to another, wich is (in real) more difficult. You can miss, or just not see the guy far on the left or rigth of the enemy line. In history, since ever, men was charging shoulder to shoulder, not running, marching to the enemy as compact as possible, to maximise the impact of the shock. Not in file, wich will be useless. The first will reach the shield of ennemies, get stabbed, then the other, etc etc. With the modern era and the threat of artillery and machine gun, the charge formation had to spread more (like 10 or 15m mini between each men), and to move fast (run, at least when close to enemy trenches) to avoid the problem. Still, ww1 shows it is not a good option to face heavy firepower. That's why ww2 was a movement war (fire and move tactics, not positions hold). No one would face this trenches situation again. (US have to face that kind of figth against jap by attacking fortified positions...was not good. Nooot at all).

@@carthag1574 Yes, I studied history. I would bet I probably know more than you. I know in WW1 the formation of the Trench System & even General Vichy served in this War. It’s always a funny joke btw. Did you know btw……. Disneyland Paris does not use fireworks anymore? This was because the last time they did the French Army surrendered to a couple of Czech tourists believing them to be Germans.

"How the hell am i still alive?"
The enemy: "Don't worry i gotchu fam" *throws grenade*
“Thought we forgot a about you? Karl, get me a grenade over there!”
“Keep moving Keep moving” . Proceeds to move backwards, stay still, and is like the first one to get down.
How accurate
@@sheepersjeepers4953 sure man
Promoted to officer!
He didn't say to move forward.
@@savegood1 it is implied.
"How the hell am i still alive?"
Famous last words
or rather: "Oh shit, grenade!"
The most terrifying part was when the guy ran into the Trench in-front disappeared and you just see a shell land in that trench
Really makes you experience what all vets were saying: watching shells falling and asking yourself when is gonna be your turn.
Ernst Junger described it as like being tied to a post while a crazy person is threatening you with a hammer
“Every shell and bullet has someone’s name on it.”

That was genuinely horrifying. Certainly, one way to get PTSD.
Notice how everyone that stopped running forward died.
"A sitting duck is a dead duck."
Best WW1 game by far. It's a shame about the very low player count. No idea how Verdun and Tannenberg are more popular than this.
fatigue on all the super-samey 'realism' shooters
system requirements
And that’s WW1 on the Western Front in a nutshell.

Grenade: Well :)

There's been 150 players in recent days around 8pm GMT
I will have to try this game out!
Now this is authentic First World War combat.
If you like this game I think you will like..hell let loose

That's nice to see english speakers speak French language, always heart warming to hear "Pour la France" when you're a French yourself.
man this game didn't deserve to flop
it didnt flop. its still in development.

Keep moving keep moving - sits still
Very nice video man. You just made me buy the game.
How are you enjoying it?
@@aj37ful low player count, its pretty dead game.
dude literally said "keep moving" and you lay down and move away from the advance
Yea, I'll have some frog legs, extra crispy.
That grenade was the icing on the shit cake.
Charge in a straight line! What could go wrong!
this is at 90% realistic concerning what was meaning in WWI.
What the heck are you talkin about?!
Never, like NEVER, charged in file or column formation. That's exactly the "not to do" video
That artillery was on point! Not sure if BTW has it but airburst shrapnel shells would make the artillery more deadly as they would explode above trenches sending balls "bullets" flying down into the trenches shredding the men inside.
MMMM
Muh historical authenticity
Guy: How the hell am I still alive?
Grenade: U have a death wish or something pal?
I genuinely wonder the amount of grenade deaths that are preceded by the words “oh shit grenade!”
I bet they like their onions fried
..Smiffy? That you?

daily life in serbia
they fired shells on their storming troops
...aaaand they're gone
Personally I would headed right. I hate being shoulder to shoulder with other players, prime target.
that's what happens when you take a bayonet to an artillery fight
LOL Luv how clean the uniforms remain untainted by blood, guts, glory, and schrapnel.
..oh - and mud.
Shots fired by player: 0
I love how you stand still and even walk backwards as you watch your comrades die just to be posted to youtube, lol
Nice footage :)
Like Foxhole, but in first-person mode.
Wardens getting massacred, a pretty sight to be sure.

It's in EA until late next year. The biggest update is out next Spring which will include customization and tank warfare
It has a niche. And that niche is passionate about this game

This is SO historically inaccurate! It shows French soldiers running towards combat and not away. Ridiculous
Except 1,385,300 French men fell in WW1. " Ils ne passeront pas" was their battle cry at Verdun. "They shall not pass."
Your comment is as original as someone calling german people “nazis”.
You have embarrassed yourself…
