![]() I wish you could go in a tank as a special power sort of thing or in the artillery or airplanes. For starters the hit detection is a hit/miss, weapons back then was inaccurate compared to today but when I'm about 6'foot away from and enemy with a Lmg and its taking me 5 shots before it registers, it gets a little annoying, to this day i still haven't figured out whether i should shoot just above the reticule or just below and trying to melee enemies is very clunky. As great as Verdun is, it does have its short comings. Verdun is unique in almost every way, from the slower pace shooting to looking through gas masks through the chlorine, from the artillery fire Verdun is unique in almost every way, from the slower pace shooting to looking through gas masks through the chlorine, from the artillery fire to reloading weapons which is the slowest i've seen (but in a good way) in a game period, the maps, weapons and nationality's all feel authentic, beats Battlefield 1 by a long shot. Because in Flanders Fields every wound was a death sentence. If you pick it up for a quick fix and expect to walk over people every game, be prepared to get owned every single game by guys like me who relish in a historical tug of war, where every single shot to the hip or shoulder is lethal every time. If you wanna learn a realistic first person shooter with real teamwork, strategy and great sound check out Verdun or Tannenberg. The different gamemodes mean that you can learn the game properly and when to teams of 30+ players that know how the game works and work together there is no game in history that depicts the real struggle the battle in the trenches on the western front in WWI was. You'll get shoot to bits if you aren't clever about your runs and is a good shoot. The game is really hard at times but a really good thing about the game is that you can't fake your way through it. The balancing of the maps made all the maps playable and the other updates and patches has improved the entire game a lot. The gunplay is perfect in I rate Verdun highly because it brings some realism to an otherwise boring and generic first person shooter marked. Otherwise, I’d just stick with Verdun.I rate Verdun highly because it brings some realism to an otherwise boring and generic first person shooter marked. Perhaps during a sale or after a big update, when the population spikes, it’s worth a purchase. Two of the modes in Tannenberg aren’t even playable unless you want to play completely with mediocre AI bots. The audience for this game is split with Verdun, its predecessor, and there simply isn’t enough here to make playing it the clear choice. That being said, I can’t recommend it for the sheer fact that the player count is far too low. ![]() Still, this is a lovingly crafted historical shooter from an infrequently visited era. The uniforms and guns are spot-on, though the animation can bring any sense of immersion to a halt at times. While Verdun excellently captured the brutality of trench warfare from the western front, Tannenberg does the same for the haphazard warfare on the eastern front. I teach about the Great War every year and fancy myself familiar with the topic. One thing that Tannenberg nails is the World War I feel.
