@random pond please @ me regarding those kind of community things. I'm the one in charge of that =]
and done 
I like it a lot as the logo itself, but you might need a small size version to help with readability. =]
colours are really nice
Thanks bb
Reminds me of a medal, theres something to looki into for the future @pine anchor
looks good fam
it reminds of a patch more than anything
better than the RR or DK clan logos tbh
those logos r trash
rekt
Honestly, it is better
The RR and DK clan logos look like they're a clan that plans CoD or some shit
That looks sexy
Better than the blue one i'd say

jk xD. they look pretty cool
Its funny because I made the DKs logo
This one especially
Well. 'Edited it'
DK is better than RR
RR Nicked theres from google.
Rekt
Troo though
You should join Warsoc, Rick. I've seen you menacing the Creative thread for awhile.
I dont know if you make art though.
Define art
Anything can be art.
A line can be interpreted into something meaningful.
Maybe you should drop by the channel and watch a few 2 MINUTES OF HATE videos.
Should set your mind straight on the glorious cause of the WARSOC
@fleet light Think you could do some 3D work on WARSOC stuff?
Hell.
I could use you for making sets on my show
lol that's roadblocks studio
Need to start learning actual 3d editing stuff like blender
lemme rephrase that
I need to get better at it
WARSOC is a vast community or developers are workers.
If you are going to seek help, its best to seek there.
Not really help I seek but I'll join anyways
Just a question, what program did you use for that?
Yes
@random pond It's custom made, that's not nicked from google
@random pond Do they have a new one?
This is the custom made one, the old one was just black and white.
@random pond Yeah. The old one was nicked from google if I remember. I don't keep up with the RR much, it's kinda rare to even see them around for me.
whats this?
Jimbo seeing the light.
Story time!
I looked around my group, just a few dozen of us left. Only two weeks ago there were hundreds of us, mostly farmers, recruited by the Colonial army. There was no time for training, they just pushed a gun into our hands and told us where to go. Lead by an inexperienced commander, a lucky survivor of a previous engagement.
Our village had been raided too many times by the Warden forces, many fled but those who stayed had no other choice but to ask protection of the Colonials. They’re all the same really, both factions fighting the other faction for ground and resources. I wonder if anyone really knows why we are even fighting. Our commander was recruited in a similar situation as us, and so was his commander and so on. Colonials or Wardens… it makes no difference.
But here we are, wearing Colonial uniforms fighting with Colonial guns. The last two weeks were hell, casualties all around us, losing friends and family members left and right. Both the Wardens and Colonials had lost so many men and without any reinforcements incoming, both forces have become smaller and smaller, until soon there will be no one left.
Our commander just visited us, we are moving up once more, there is an armoury nearby which should have some much needed ammo. As we marched through the city, we looked around and saw all the destruction we had caused. Some citizens looked at us from their destroyed homes. Were we the good guys, or the bad guys for them? Maybe there is no good side here. Maybe both the Wardens and Colonials are just as bad and our only contribution is to keep the war going.
We heard a mortar and ran for cover. It impacted right into a building and it collapsed, a man and woman were just in time to escape getting trapped under the rubble. Guns opened fire from a small distance, the man standing next to me got shot and fell to the ground, as so many had in the previous days. We returned fire and a long firefight ensued. The amount of guns firing was low, only a handful of soldiers on both sides. Suddenly I saw bullets of an MG fly towards me, I ran into a house and as I heard the foundation of the building crack I ran out the other door. The building partially collapsed and the route to my unit was blocked.
I decided to try and flank the enemy forces, I moved forward towards the enemy position and waited till I could hear the gunfire on the other side of the buildings. I saw an open door that lead back to the main street and ran in. Suddenly, before I realised it, I ran into two enemy soldiers. Both of them armed with a rifle. I saw them and they saw me as we all raised our guns.
‘Fred?’ I asked, looking at the man in front of me, ‘is that you?’ How could he be here? Wearing a Warden uniform, he was my friend back in school. He had fled our village before we joined the Colonial forces, had he really joined the Wardens? And yet it made sense, after all: Colonials and Wardens… it makes no difference. I felt a heavy pain in my chest and fell to the ground. The last thing I saw was the shocked face of my old friend. I forgave him. He was not my enemy, the Wardens were no my enemy, the war itself was.
Why didn't you just put this into a google doc and post it...?
And why didn't you just do it in a single message :\
because it complains about message too long
and it screws up my paragraphs
Seems legit
Nice Story tho
yep
Found this while looking through some old photos of my grandfather while he was in WWIII. He told me he was awarded the Medal of Honor (pictured here) for destroying a Martian Pillbox. Thought it was worth sharing,
damn dude, I guess martian shield tech can't hold back a single guy
found an image of an old martian soldier alone on patrol, caught by the US military
Just making a guide for Steam))
Did you know there's actually a field artillery piece about 10 minutes away from my house.
@white needle That video was well explained. I really like it. 👌
Battle of Barrony Crossing in a nutshell
I disagree with some of the tactical decisions suggested, but a good video non the less
It's a good Video yep
Do someone know wich ranks can be aquired in Foxhole and in wich order? (From low to high) I am thinking about making Structure in the Game
Until you get your first commendation you do not get a rank
then it goes
Private->Corporal->Sargeant->Staff Sargeant->WO1->WO2->Officer Cadet->Lieutenant¨
I think
Not exactly sure
Also @white needle However nice that sounds, it doesn't work that way at all for a couple of reasons
Ye
K
Im Warden thats why im Asking ^^
Anyways, to what I wanted to say:
There usually isn't enough people to run patrols
Nor that much to really build once we¨re sure we spammed enough foxholes
It's of course not meant to STOP the attacks from happening, else we would stick around it¨
But rather
It stops unorganised waves
and slows and warns us of incoming waves of organised enemies
Since if the base is fortified, we have a spawn or three in it
The second anything goes south and we need to repell an attack
We just either retreat and sandwich the incoming group between us and the defence line
Or we finish our attack, dying in the process, and using the freshly respawned players to defend
There isn't much PURPOSE to holding the patrol lines
unless we're either desperate to steal equipment
or are holding until something happens, i. e. our logistics gets the tech to finish arty
In those scenarios, defending makes sense
Otherwise, leave it to the AI unless it can't deal with the issue
There not supposed to be hold just to give a way to look for enemys, sure you cant hold a Patrol line during combat, its just there to stop enemys from getting near the base
They're*
Is the War Report out yet?
Nope
K
Here comes my Idea: You wanna tell me that the ranks are useless? Well then listen up Private! I want to establish the chain of ranks to achive better organisation. So the highest Ranks that are on will be divided into the Logistics and the Army (when there are more WO1 or 2 or higher are on, the ones that joined First are automaticly in Charge of Logistics or Army). Next Step down are the with the next lower rank wich organise the Coalitions wich can be Lead by those(e.g SSgt. When WO1 is on) or the normal Sgts. And in those Coalitions the Leader ' s right Hand will be the next lower Rank(e.g. Corporal) and then the normal Soldiers. The "General"(WO1/2 or higher in my example) can Set goals to achive and the SSgt's have to instruct the Coalitions wich function as "Squad" in this example
And when you log in you'll have to write your Rank and your last Job (Army or Logistics) and the "Generals" will give you commands of what to do
If only life worked like that...
If you have enough organised groups, you can pick a town to patrol around per group. The frontline, mostly on the new map, is about 3 areas wide.
A total of about 15 players would be enough to set up patrols.
The most important factor of this strategy of course is the radio tower. An in my opinion serverly underapreciated tool. With the right network, you can not only see where they are, but also predict their future path creating ambushes. A group of 4 could therefore be able to take down an offensive unit of 6-7 players.
The biggest thing is that it's an economic advantage.
A decently equiped group of 4 players:
4 rifles = 36
Binocs = 15
radio = 6
medsupplies = 15/20? (not sure about their cost)
Total: 77 (let's say)
An attacking group of 4 players can often easily take down like 6-7 foxholes = 300+ materials.
Making it much cheaper to fend off an attacking wave than it is to have to rebuild defences.
You also don't always have to patrol the entire front, when an area is very quiet, you could decrease the amount of people you have moving around there. While you can increase combat patrols in areas that are more active
And for the economic advantage i wrote the "Make Logistics easier" Text on reddit
And to organise these patrols I've said my idea above
Again, why would you take people away from the attack?
The AI is still there either way, being your frontline
And you can retreat should the need arise
@white needle Nice video! Enjoyed it... shoulda included the picture of your radio network from last game, lol
Wich Form of government do the two Factions have?
Totalitarian is assumed. Dictatorship, communist, socialist, monarchy, etc. Doesn't really matter at this point. They've been fighting for so long that the traditional forms have eroded.
comments @random pond? This is your domain.
Im just wondering...
And i would like to know more about the History of the Lands... how are the Countries namend? "Warden" and "Colonial"?
Or what is the Backstory in general?
While you're here, is map design also your domain, Matt?
Uhm. @wary swallow I won't be commenting directly on any of this. But know that anything lore related that was in the game in the form of notes, etc. Will probably not be relevant going forward.
@hollow palm yes
D:
@hollow palm Make sure to leave it in suggestions as I'm not always checking discord.
Fo sho
I would like to know that aswell
@random pond I assumed so. I just dragged you in to explain the oft repeated phrase. Hope it wasn't too disruptive.
@hard hollow Probably not.
I mean you can suggest all you want, just know that we do have a plan. I was referring to krazyflyinchicken talking about map suggestions.
Ok
kek
so you're telling me
that if someone sends in lore it might be added in some altered way?
Well off we go to suggestion section to write the lore!
nah ill probably write a doc about dates of events that might help out
all invented, ofcourse
Entirely aware Matt.
my perspective of shit
But why do it alone when there are more minds to mind?
dunno
Beccause story gets corrupted, and it becomes a game of telephone
It's understandable.
ye
i mean
if you have a perfect story and it gets altered to the worse by some guy
you wouldnt want that
not saying that i have a perfect story in mind lmao
So then just do it with the ones who are interest in making really good story
ill think about it
K then ill wait^^ (I cant write properly but I have a lot of ideas)
wait for what
When you have thought about what ever you are gonna think about relativ to Lore-writing for foxhole
(because i really wann a try it)
ill probably DM it straight to matt
:)
[PUG] Strategy - Weekly War #8
[PUG] Strategy - Weekly War #9
[PUG] Strategy - Weekly War #10
[PUG] Strategy - Weekly War #11
[PUG] Strategy - Weekly War #12
By my reckoning, the only plan that didn't work out for us was from Weekly War #10
but we did cause some pretty serious damage....
No, plan 10 worked
The FOB there was a foothold for the entire assault on the colonial side of the river for the rest of the game
We just didn't attack Brine Glen and went to Salt Farm straight away
Where we killed everyone
(these are all the actual plan maps, btw... I didnt reproduce these after-the-fact. These are the plans we went with on each day of the war)
Stole thousands worth of mats
lol
And killed four trucks
Okay. It had some measure of success... but I was really hoping we'd capture it 😦
But... we did.
*It, not I
We literally shattered the entire colonial right flank
Then destroyed hollows
FLIPPED THE BLOODY MAP
hahahaha
no, you're right. It was that one
Yeah
we killed every FOB available
no wait
it wasn't
it was the Plaza plan as colonials that flipped it
I remember
I kicked the FOB at salt that war in the nuts
This one was basically them getting across the river
Then getting rekt at Spine
Us killing Sun's Hollow in the meantime
And a massive clusterfuck of a batle at Lib Point that ended it
There - I put them all in one convenient place with links to the war reports/videos as well
Lol - Nice
HAHA
That's better
lmao
The full 5.5 hour war footage. I added chapters to break it down into more digestible chunks
Disclaimer: Much yelling of people
man... screwed up the bookmarks. gimme a min
BUT DO YOU HAVE THE SABATON PART
I had to look it up
If that's the part where Rogue is singing, then yes
Yes he is
and yes. Yes its in there
Sometime during 'The Battle of Barrony Road' - not sure of the timestamp
lol
I tried to fast-forward it through the boring parts..... one of you guys needs to record. Most of the time I miss all the good action 😦
cause im running around doing mundane shit
It's cool tho. Havent Seen all yet but hey something about one of my favourite Games :)
Oh wait so it wasn't pug the ones who assaulted Blemish? was there another clan?
I dont understand though, I need some documentation of how they did it, because when I saw the level of coord of the attack I thought it was you guys
I remember I had a mortar and I was shelling the crap out of them when they tried breaking in for the first time, I was aiming at their hmgs and their mortars with good success for the most part
but
they just kept coming!
like, they kept coming with mortars and hmgs
I couldnt believe how many shells they had
Did they destroy the FOB with mortars or satchels?
both
at one point the just destroyed one of the walls leading inside blemish
and it was just a few footsteps from the fob itself
o.0
but man seriously, you dont understand how much shelling they did
hahahaha
There was some rumors of shelling, we just were sure of how much
14:50 for @golden frigate, @next surge, and my singing.
Best shit is Greslie.
"FUCKING GET OVER THERE AND ATTACK! SORRY I YELL! I LOVE YOU GUYS!"
lol
yep
He is the angriest dad
My favorite part is with @tender ether basically screaming every 30 seconds that his truck just got blown up. He played that whole game as a rolling pinata
We may need to start sending 2-3 guys with him in the truck just as wagon guards
Still won't likely help.
Maybe @hard hollow can be his escort/GPS.
I sound nasally
Man, I really liked the machine gun this war
Did we actually run across HMGs east of the crossroads? I saw a few, but not a lot.
Not too many.
quite a few SMGs, but HMGs were a bit rare.
When flamethrowers come out...I'm gonna be squad burning man
I'll join you with that
Bring a whole new meaning to the bug reports that pop up with 'Fire Wall' issues
Lol
I need new mic fml it sounds am talking through mcdoalds drive thru
Did you know: Your voice will always sound strange to your own ears, because when you speak in real life, the way you perceive your own voice is, in part, due to the vibrations to your ear transferred through your jaw? The More You Know. 🌈
its weird I hear my self & i cringe interally
lool
head explodes
ugh when we got slaughtered in the forst south of coloinal FOB should got out sooner my bad
it aallllwwaaayyyss looks worse on camera than it actually is
I listen to myself during the battle of Barrony Road and I realised I ignored half of the comments you guys made
Like you said, "We should build foxholes across the road"
and im like, "Let's go south"
<Urgh's truck blows up on the road>
Whereas, in my defense, even though I am trying to listen to you, my mind is racing at full speed trying to command the present while simultaneously plan the future
I like rewatching it helps learn what we should of done also i can record am just a lazyer editor
My brain got stuck between collecting salvaging having a defense line
yea I try not nag you about something so i wait when theres a clearence of time when where not getting attacked
hahaha yeah. I noticed that. ❤
As long as no one's taking offense when it seems like im ignoring things
Im good
not at all bro am afriad myself I sound like whiny bitch when I "suggest" or "recommand" someting
this will take a while
progression
heartland roads traced
AND THATS BOTH TRACED
@fast grove pls be proud of me
final update tonight - ill continue it tomorrow
continue being connecting up the maps for no real reason but why the fuck not
@prisma oar 🙂
Here's a video to show people a concept for utilizing the new salvage nodes along the road.
lets have a look
@hollow palm Nice explaination, hopefully now that its in video form it'll be more accessible to a larger audience. While I might have some specific criticisms on this particular stratagy. I think a more important part to take away from this video is a way of thinking and problem solving instead of just asking the devs to change a part of the game
Absolutely
I wont be so bold as to say its the best way to do things, but its certainly one way to do things. Im hoping by releasing (basically) everything we've been doing, it'll help speed along innovation rather than let any newer groups that might be thinking of starting up try to figure everything out on their own
Whats this? (Ok a guy obviously, but what Kind of gun?)
Armaggedon pattern
back to work
I like it... I never noticed that there's only ONE road leading north out of Deadlands. Given that the roads seem to (reasonably) line up from Deadlands to Upper Heartlands, I suspect that'll be similar for the Northern zone
Maybe..... there wont be many roads in the new northern zone
im now imagining a map with a single road going down its middle
Cray-Zay
theres not much going east either
i think another road from callahans belt could work
now for my thoughts of the two maps
in a bit
Cal's Pass is expected to be perhaps the only pass for miles around. Probably the only route that has shallow enough grades for locomotives to ship equipment through, and wide enough for truck traffic.
Its beautiful
I... I.. Am not crying...
How dare you! My Paint-Fu is great
How much do you sell it for?
You..... you dont SELL art. Art is part of the SOUL
asians cant draw memes
I am thing about 1 maybe 2
God, I will pay up to 3.50 for that
You cant even tell where one art begins, and the other ends
lmao
lol
send that in instead
It looks like a girl dancing to 'stayin alive'
of the other one
its a girl dancin' to stayin' alive! obviously
Goddamnit I want some of that krazy art
That's how you know im a real artist. I take other people's stuff and sell it
Draw me an HB
ill do that
@hollow palm is that supposed to be HB?
-whiskers 2k16
yes
LOL
kekkle
Dear god
I actually laughed at that one. XD
There are 3 roads and a railroad leading north. 😉
@pine anchor <3
😮
WIll there be trains in the game?
In large scale warfare at least
will trains be able to transport supplies in large scale warfare
Yes there will be.
CHOO CHOO
was there a server restart?
yes
I really look forward to railroad logistics. Once those are in, you'll be lucky if you find me anywhere else.
All abroad the Warden Train! Chooo!
Guess we will just have to blow the tracks XD
yeah, hopefully that'll be a thing. I'll use @hard hollow as the scout
use me as the dynamite
Naw, your the mine detector. Primary tool for detection being the Hammer.
We will capture whiskers and tie them to the tracks...
One cannot simply capture a whiskers
Well I didn't want to assume your gender XD
@pliant zealot Just ask @pale tusk. I don't really care who I run over.
@random pond Any comments to add?
within the first 20 minutes, there an "oops."
"damn it Rogue"
This is simply a form of art:
I will pay 3.50 for that piece of art
I swear, you have some form of addiction
radio towers are awesome when you have a good network
They are extremely usefull, I know exactly where they are every time, already killed a lot of enemy attackres
think I killed at least 8 enemies this life
Final tower standing at Donder bedtime
I think I build 37 of them, few got destoryed though so Prolly about 40. 35+40= 1400 materials worth of towers
@hard hollow @hollow palm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2VNz-KLbkw&feature=youtu.be
ill watch it
Yes, it is not as short as I wanted it to be 😛
I'm not good at things that last short
@white needle this is really good
Glad you guys found it interesting to watch
Filming is in a way easier than typing. Problem with me is that I can never keep things short
is this a communist propaganda poster makeover
No, this is patrick
Soviet Propaganda best propaganda
Lul
@white needle Some of the critisms are alright, but a number of problems come up since we aren't a engineering company. Namely, we spend our time beating back the [INSERT ENEMY ARMY] as much as possible, and a lot of the single man missions that you suggested (really good idea, and a logical next step) don't apply to us and our mass tactics. We also don't fortify that much, because then we attack the next nut along the way. A lot of pressure comes down to randoms, and other squads to fortify after we're down with the plundering and burning.
However, if there are no other squads available, it's tasks that must be done and are very important.
While I love radio towers, spending 4 hours setting them up is not my favorite thing to do either ;).
But no one else does it, and I want those towers up so I do it myself
most people dont even know what a radio is
True, but the great thing of organised groups is that they can do with just 1 man carrying a radio
1 radio on 6-7 players is really cheap of course
Whenever I find one. I rarely make one, cause usually I'm looking for something else (cue explosions)
Exactly
Early Warning system sounds nice, but we can get reports through the chat, and those mats and production time can be spent making nades which we need a billion times more.
A lot of the criticism in this is about the organised groups not doing this and that, too... but not a word about WHY we were focusing elsewhere.
For example, Loftmire was a fucking fortress.
It took us fourty minutes and two fully equipped and constantly supplied squads with almost thirty players total to TAKE the place
let alone keep it
Im so excited to get that video out
So many firefights...
We had a literal army out there
A quick glance at the video..... there was never less than 8 people on my screen at any given time. The colonials were swarming
It was brilliant
I definitely want to watch that video since I was in the truck doing logistics the entire time, only saw 2 guys die during that battle.
Neither of them were me.
😦
Not a bad thing, I enjoyed logistics (was fun during the battle). I just want to see what I was supporting 😄
lol
Here's another instructional video to help with public-player involvement... This past game we decided to break into two squads following this format of command. The purpose of this video was to create and describe a system for tactical gameplay that:
A) Is simple and straight-forward command system that someone with no experience or instruction could follow
B) Effective in combat.
C) Clear up comms for people to have fun, but also introduce mechanisms to reduce noise.
I present: [PUG] tactics (been using this for 2 wars now)
is it

@hollow palm Sweet! You got me used to waiting for these every week, now! XD
lol
PUG battleplan for WW13. Red squad suffered an initial setback at Loftmire at the start (expected), but in the end we accomplished all of our objectives through teamwork and cooperation with other players such as Longshot (made a ton of build materials), Tgev (donated a truck when Urgh's was destroyed, also helped fortify Oleander), and many others, such as Meeps, who fought with PUG.
@hard hollow always
WW13: PUG and the Horde
The joys of exploration! - Deadlands (Colonial side near Liberation Point)
No I think its just like the tanks
Merry christmas PUG
lol
went to ugly christmas sweater party had to get it for clan

so im hard at work making something
wheres HB from?
im assuming canada

Great wörk yo ^^
lol
@tender ether I sent that cannon weeks ago...
wait a second...
in one of the notes they describe a ''large cannons''
could it be that cannon?
Probably.
DUN DUN DUN
I hope to see it become something you can capture for your team.
well I mean, its pretty large
Depends how ya look at it I guess, matter of opinion :3
are you saying it isnt a large cannon?
It is large, but not as large as described.
Is this an old piece of Story or did you just found it?
We fould it a bit ago. Worth dredging up again.
its an old piece, 3-4 weeks ago or something
I think I still need to add it to the wiki
Ye I found it
Tbh that was one of the first things i found ok the first expansion of the map
Something ive been wanting to do for a while now, a theoretical "Who are the Colonials and Wardens", this writing will be mainly built off of what we know about the Foxhole universe, which at the moment the devs have left open ended.
This game is built off of early 20th century tactics and weaponry, but exactly how early? In this alternate universe it seems to be assumingly the same up until The Great War hits, so maybe we had all the same countries, why not? Afterall we have similar clothing and technology, and that is exactly what we are going to be looking at, so what does the tech say? We have our bolt actions, mortars, shotguns and even the Colt M1911 which is known in our world. There is one key weapon model im looking at along with this M1911 Handgun, The submachine gun, more specifically the Maschinenpistole 40 or MP40. This was the high point of Sub machine guns, not only was it decently lightweight and automatic, this invention of 1938 was accurate, had good capacity and the soldiers loved it.
What the point of this is what you may ask, we already know that this game is more towards modern day than back in those days, the war never ended and there was probably less research on small arms as the war only intensified when germany didn't surrender in this timeline, The war then rages on and as history repeats there is an arms race from somewhere around 1918 to 1939-1941'ish. This time was probably spent researching armor and nuclear energy, the reason I say armor is because compared to the trash tanks of ww1 there is a fairly modern ww2/post ww2 tank in the abandon ward.
Notice how your weapons aren't simply bought and delivered by a weapons company and you build it yourself? Empty and pre destroyed towns,
A lot of this and everything we went over gives a decent chance that a lot of people, civilians and soldiers went kablooey.
At this point there is no good side and no bad side, no people to back up the military powers that survived, we can probably assume from there that based on the uniforms that the new groups born from rubble of the old ones probably aren't based on one nation or country, or else they would have been left unaltered, and with a few generations passing its natural for everyone want to leave the formers ideas and ideals. Going back to the Pistol, SMG and just about everything else they don't belong to a single army but both probably just went with whatever was leftover, and best thing compared to the rest. These militias are small, weak, hardly organized and leeching off of old war technology to kill the guys they hate for the next few generations with few advancements, now that the wardens and colonials have been looked at compared to our timeline it would probably be safe to say in this universe there to probably be hundreds or even thousands of other groups like this fighting their own battles.
Comments or criticisms?
Yeah great theory. I think the "old" groups you mentioned are now either Warden and Colonials, all left Men After the one war that started all (or a few After it) formed either the Warden or the Colonials as THE two groups of the World... because we dont have a clue if there are other Factions fighting their own never ending war...
Yep exactly we what I had in mind aswell. Thanks for writing it down ☺. Something like fallout big war but technologie halted on a certain point,because of only devastating wars. In fallout it was the 50/60 attitude that remained but tech was heavy based on nuclear energy.
Seems unlikely that random villagers would be able to hold off an extreme warden attack especially if it was a shit ton
they live in the time after the great war costed millions upon millions of deaths. While the Colonials and the Wardens are the 2 great factions. Their numbers will not be that massive at all compared to what we have today. Foxhole in a way, is a post-apocalyptic game. A 'huge army' in the time of foxhole will be hundreds of men.
thats what they said when 300 spartans held of a major persian invasion @fleet light 😄
The current rebels that have been beaten now in Allepo, were mostly also villagers, fighting against a '(well-)organised' army.
They held 5 years 😉
300 spartans arent the same as villagers
Also, they're in a village and not moving out
Also "little town"
its alright rick, stop questioning the story 😄
How many respawns did the villagers have?
Many^^
they were spawnhacking
Lul ^
@white needle Good backstory. Reasonable too, since some incidents have occurred in the past similar to this. Can't find so much as a Wikipedia article for the short Russian occupation of Aland.
Not too reasonable, but whateves, it is a good back story
If it were the actual wardens morrocan would have killed them all with his fists😂
I don't think that there is only the Wardens and Colonials looking at it this way. I think anywhere from 20-200 groups could have been built out of the remnants of either and each of the assumed Allies forces and Axis forces depending on location and defenses against a massive nuclear attack.
obviously them to be relatively small and unorganized, a huge reason why I say unorganized is because the old map, the only way for it to end up like that, one side on each bridge is both armies to be undersupplied, undermanned and one chasing the other across the bridge then the defending side blowing up the bridges to refit for battle and dig in, which both sides must then do.
Id probably compare our seperate "Factions" to modern day african militias, difference is our Foxhole universe has a lot of supply and blueprints leftover from a previous 75-125 year war.
Yup
I see it more of like how the Brother Hood of Steel is in FO4
How they have multiple groups of BoS but they vary depending on where they are
But for the most part fight for the same thing
thats a great anology actually, their goal is pretty much killing everyone they hate and they see out as best technology they can, most of it from hundreds of years ago
Yeah, also I don't see either of them as the 'bad' guys
Sure the Wardens look evil
But the Colonials could do the same shit the Wardens do
Like in the lore for the Dragons
They paint the Wardens as evil
It would be safe looking at the universe they have both done some unsavory things
Mhm
Also, the lore for Foxhole is pretty much player generated at this point
We all have our opinions on it
And they are all pretty much valid
its true its mostly based on individual ideas on what happened, since the devs are going to keep it open ended atleast until release, my goal was to look at it in a most likely scenario, of course its just educated assumption and many things could have been different
Mhm
Perhaps the war has been going on for centuries
Villages rebuild themselves only to get destroyed
from what we know at the moment. this is post ''100 years'' war
well if we think about it the great war didnt stop, this means that 1918-1940 and 1945+ werent spent as peace time. a lot of stuff can happen there
this is a lot of time on a single war
"I Know Not the Weapons of World War 3 will be, but World War 4 will never happen because we're never going to let World War 3 end." - Wardens
That was Einstein you fool
and we havent even said "ottomon empire" yet
''I know not what weapons ww3 will be fought with, but ww4 will be fought with sticks and stones''
thats his quote
Yup
krazy made an adaption to it 😄
XD
Probably one of my favorite quotes
Speaking of that quote, they used it in 'Spectral' which is a movie on Netflix.... great movie. Go watch it
Ghostbusters meets Call of Duty
When you wish you could know more about Rome
But there is only enough to make inferences
D:
I saw the movie gladiator, it was a collection on every single shred knowledge known of rome. other than that movie, nothing is known
Yes, the Praetorian guard were actually trained to fight unarmed and with gauntlets that shot exploding buckshot when the punched you.
❤
Honestly though, I'm pretty sure PG didn't wear black/purple armor
It is a bit odd, They were all about red, it was cheap and considered a Power color
And I'm pretty sure it is thought that they wore tunics when in Rome
Also that red thing is unsure as well
Since the legions were recorded to be wearing red
But in other recordings they are wearing white
Not pure white
But still white
probably unprocessed because they were "tu pour of Plebs"
the advantage of red came when they worked as line infantry, mostly with their shields actually. when you have a large number of red standing near eachother they blend a bit to the human eye and it is hard to estimate or count how many there are, sometimes even effecting estimated distance by a few meters
that would be fun, I could probably try recreating rome on a small scale in blender
Also you can't see your enemy bleed :3
thats a really minor plus, and a semi myth. Blood is really obvious even on red, blue or purple actually work better for it since it will just darken it rather than look like a huge dark red splat
I believe it's more for minor scratches
'scratches'
At least we still use Roman Legion tactics today in the riot police
Innocent civilians check, "Non lethal" clubs check, shields to protect you against the unarmed check.
My god, the first video ive seen where people actually fought back
oh is this taiwan?
It's Korea
South I believe
The Military veterans were protesting because they weren't getting paid their retirement
if this was north, something would be seriously going wrong with their regime xD
Eventually at the end of the Riot a negotiater came out and they discussed terms and the vets got their pay
So riot successful if you ask me
@little needle Dont you ever try resisting our lord, the man that never poops, the man that won a yaht race when he was 4, the very man that gives you hope and life.
I am sorry, dear leader was delivered on a rainbow. nothing can go wrong with him
@fleet light Yeah, generally is SK you are required to do military service, if you decide to do it as a job afterwards you are paid VERY little
You get benefits though in America
Like access to military hospitals
Discounts
Etc.
You mean "America's shame" as sad as I am I have to say it...
Donald better get that stuff in order.
He's an idiot
So is Hillary
They can go fuck each other for all I care
Ok
Let's stop
The politics
maybe move to #general-discussion 😄
Or not at all since rules
we probably should as we stopped talking Col and Ward a while ago lol
This is why I love this channel.... yall just moderate yourselves 😄 ❤
❤ Sign me up as mod buddo. cuz im nailing it.
ive passed it along the team
Get out my channel cunts
YES COMMANDER
Those riots were so stupid. They portrayed Merkel as Hitler because she... wanted to give them money and had the guts to ask Greece to change so they would not make more debts
lel
Nice work !
Wait a minute, THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS TREATIES, ONLY WAR
My stuff be rockin. I somehow managed to get that bandage under a few poly's. Grenade is rigged with twistable blasting cap and physics simulated string
@golden monolith thats just my lighting, In Unity it will be a bit darker and the deformations in the paint will stand out more.
The terrible lighting is there on both just because 10 minutes of setting up doesnt seem like its worth it for a screenshot
Just some sneak peaks for a FPS/TPS game ive been working on with a partner since around fall last year. A mix of PVP Gamemodes and PVE Co-Op gamemodes. personal models is about all I can post for now
The 82dk is not dead
Can confirm.
And Drunk is up really early or really late for Austrialian time
early
So yeah randomly scrolling through bluedrake comments. Sometimes you something fucking funny. Had to share this 😂
Pretty good, nice adaption on the navy seal one
@(189th-ISD)Yakhont#9561 Love it 😄 👌
The new artwork basically confirms we are Guardsman from Warhammer.
Oh well-
If you cant beat them, join them.
A FINE WELCOME FOR US BROTHERS
RETURN THE GREETING IN KIND
For all we know they could be colonials
Doesn't say a thing, the logos could still be assigned either way
Besides, it looks Germanic in origin. Which the imperium of.man does too
Well. If our new fuckboy Julian is following previous character concepts we could probably tell who is who.
Wardens wore proper uniforms while Colonials wore more ragged kit.
Inspecting over the images you can sort of see who is wearing proffesional equipment and who is not.
I do see some British Stanley helmets in there though.
Stanleys could be used by both sides honestly.
I don't personally think so
Both sides seem to have a different style
Oh yeah have you seen the concept art with the small camp? Looks like one of the guys is wearing a full face mask
Tech has effectively stagnated for both sides, plus, scavangers gonna' scavange.
Not really a mask more like a full face helmet
Which ones that
This guy
@random pond
Also looks like he is wearing some other armour plate or heavier kit
He has a different uniform when compared to the guy next to him
It looks for me more like a female soldier. And not a face mask
You guys are looking for too much detail, its mood concept, not character concept
Sshhhhhh let us speculate
Most of the stuff are saying is probably very incorrect anyway
May as well have some fun
If it is a metal face mask looks like these helmets
I think the left soldier wears a leather jacket of some sort
The guy to the right looks like he has some armour of sorts
Or a heavier setup
Possibly a slightly larger ammo bandolier or something
Nah just some thick heavy winter clothing. It's not a sentry kit like bf1
The guy to the left looks like he is in think winter clothing
The guy to the right seems to have something else
I'll show you how I can tell
Don't focus to much on one vague picture 😉
Maybe its a life jacket 😉
Blue is a weird thing I found sticking out of the face mask
Or whatever it is
Almost like a gasmasks
Gas mask*
The red is just the armour looking thing
Green is the small gap between the soldier and whatever he is wearing
Not really a gap more like where the vest looking thing ends
Putting this here to hopefully spark some discussion about the new map. Disclaimer: The devs have said the world buildings are likely to change before release next week.
something seems wierd with the sizing (heartlands and callahans passage have same square size, estimated from deadlands)
matt has said that the grid squares of deadlands dont add up
^^
i know
but its based of the roads between deadlands and heartlands, which are apparently similar to what it should be
according to adam? i think
waits "patiently" for fixed deadlands map
arent the deadlands supposed to be updated to make the maps line up?
well i tried to line the maps up
Well announcements say we'll be playing deadlands this week, so maybe we'll see some minor map tweaks
pass is too wide
way to wide for the gap between crumbling passage and callahans gate
Might be a distance off the map where it curves or advances up a switchblade of sorts. That can explain some differences, although we have no idea what altitude we're fighting at, or how distant from the Dead Lands we are. Many things to be seen.
@prisma oar Up to you, serior comrade cartogropher.
I mean... The ones that control White Cape literally control all of the right side of the Lake... I mean... you can produce Weapons AND meds there... AND you only can get into it over steps..... its like THE Point of fight...
@hollow palm Yup it will be a whole lot of Holes and Boxes i City AMD a whole lot of halftracks on the other side...
Halftracks are going to be key assets
Is matts hat permanently attached to his head?
or is matts head attached to his hat
our reporters are live on the scene, find out more at 10
find out more when the commercial break ends
And in the next episode: The New Dev interviewed! How Mr.Bluechair got his job!
what are you talking about
blue chair is one of the leads
but.. everyone just steps and sits on him
so he doesnt get the credit he deserves
Well, it's definately all terrain
Semi dramatized account of the lead up to, and follow up, of the Battle of Barony Field.
ah, I forgot. I know there where a lot of Colonial clans with us
kek
I'm not changing it, although I probably should. No account should be taken as 100% accurate, since usually my character, if he were to die regularly, would make the story really jarring.
Where is Barony Crossroads?
@hazy ledge It's the crossroads north of Lower Barrony. It's not listed as an offician location, but that's what we started called the battle
Is that in the Deadlands?
oh
I made this PUG meme dedicated to Urgh xDD
omfg lmao
Does anyone have the screenshot of HBs face?
yes

oh dear
the colonial assault force
atleast 20 people 😄
big thanks to reef for leading this colonial blob 😄
when the war is almost over
hotel was the PUGS, and charlie was the 42DR + everyone else
In the final moments, the PUG objective read "Heil Hootler". This was in reference of the fact I stayed up past midnight. Send help.
lemme slap a big [declassified] sign on our battle plan
good enough.
these where our objectives for the war. we where able to switch rapidly between them. we switched to objective BLUE when RED was no longer needed, and vice versa
''case purple'' the name came from the fact that objective PURPLE could only be activated once RED, BLUE and GREEN where all completed and combining in the colour purple
here is an updated graphic
reason for warden loss:
not enough fob spam
should of had at least 7 in the spine
can't believe these people.
Ikr?
we dont need fobs all we need is a wall
You're right, a wall of FOBs
Btw, what "fob" mean ?
Forward Operating Base.
It's basically an Outpost
That's what they mean @hazy ledge
Ah, thanks man
No problem @crude spoke
and likewise MOB is the acronym of Main Operating Base, which is usually a large, mostly permanent base which could have an airfield, or a port ect.
An FOB can be either semi-permanent to temporary and usually feeds off the MOB with supplies, although it could sustain itself for a while.
either way both terms are used very sluggishly and could mean almost anything
Its old, but this is actually something i had from waaay back. About one year but it feels so far back now...
