Hey as the officer of this match this was a really fun surprise to find this video! Even though this was like a year ago I still remember this match. Thanks for posting this!
Best group I've seen. I applaud the infantrymen on their listening and observation. The hive mind was present! Moving as one body constantly was beautiful to witness. Chain of command outstanding as well.
This game is actually so much fun. I'm not sure how its not more popular.. There is public games and also locked server organized 300 person matches. public can be a little chaotic and disorganized sometimes.. But the locked server matches if you decide to join a regiment and get into a organized squad where people actually listen to leaders is sooo much fun.
I'm guessing because at its core it's a COD with a civil war skin thrown on it, yes? I don't have the game, but in gameplay I've watched you basically lineup and fire. I think if there were more involved around the whole war aspect (life before and after) there would be more involvement.
Its not as popular because it requires team work. Lots of people want to play cod and do what they want. In wor they actually penalize you for being an individual.
And it really is, but there aren't many players in the game unfortunately, I can play it literally only at night when the servers are most populated ( most people play on US servers )
@@randomgamerdude34 how are random matches normally ? Do people even try or they just go Battlefield/CoD running around trying to score the most kills (every man for himself even though we are team) ??
@@whoelsebutmeofcoursei This was a random match, actually, all other matches I ever played were similar to this, it mostly depends on the experience of the officers who lead a crowd of random players, if they know what to do, than you will get the game like this one in the video, if not, than it may be quite chaotic. But the main things is that the basic mechanics of the game are made in such a way that it is unprofitable to play as a lone wolf, so most of the players tries to play as a team in a line
@@whoelsebutmeofcoursei No, even on the public servers everyone takes it seriously and follows their commanders. The game makes it so you have too as well in a lot of ways. There is no kill count, or notification when you kill someone so there are no achievement hunters running around. You of course will run into some mic spammers sometimes (just mute them) and a few guys that try to run off on their own (we call them Rambo's) but when they are killed it takes them longer to spawn if they are killed out of formation and with the weapons it makes it kind of hard to run off on your own. You get one shot then it takes about 20 seconds to reload your next round.... doesnt make situations ideal for a run and gun goofball. If you are into this style of warfare, ABOUSTLEY pick this game up, it is sooooooooo much fun.
Yeah, this ice is a little weird. But ice and snow seems to be just an option in a server setting, which was turned on as a new year event. The default maps don't have snow by default
A small fraction as the fighting during the American Civil War was brutal, congratulations to all players for the great video, I'm imagining one is for a thousand players!
This is the hardest map for Union to win. I've got a gameplay video on my channel of the same battle and it's an hour long because both sides commanders have realized how much resides on a knifes edge. Always great to see Coby too. That Rebel advance at 9:35 loses them their advantage and shows what a quick thinking commander can do to turn a losing situation around.
The officer is the absolute reason why I love this game. It shows the importance of skilled officers and coordination, instead of how its just spray and pray in every other fps game
FYI - the only major battle of the Civil War fought during snow storm was the battle of Hatchers Run during the siege of Petersburg in February 1865. Source: Petersburg National Battlefield Park Ranger.
i really like the vibes of that officer man really chill dude. sucks that only 300 players play this game, i really want to buy this for such a long time but the playerbase is my only concern
You can check number of players on Steamdb and see that sometimes it goes up to 1000+ for a few hours, it's clan events. So, if there is not enough player to play in random, you can always join a clan and play with them, there will be enough people on the events. But in fact, even is there about 200 people on server, this is more than enough for an interesting game.
If this Civil war game could get Remastered for the PlayStation 6. PS5 and Xbox series consoles with local multiplayer offline co-op lobbies that be fun.
The officer sees them through his binoculars. Then tells us where to fire. New players are confused by this lol "why are we just shooting at a hill 300 yards away?" 😅
Imagine knowing your impoverished forefathers were willing to start the most horrific war in US history so that a slaveholding aristocracy could ensure slavery's continued expansion, and you're so embarrassed about what they died for that you construct a new, revisionist history where you claim they were actually fighting for local government, even though the secession was basically one giant hissy fit about slaveholders and their allies losing their monopoly over the federal government to an anti-slavery party.
I'd like to play this for sure! May check it out when I get around to buying a new PC! I also wanna play Grand Tactician it looks like a solid civil war rts!
Maybe, there are a lot of regiments and regimental events in the game, but it was a regular server with random players, War of Rights just have a pretty good community that is ready to play as a team.
Is it more historically accurate to call for "medic" or "surgeon"? I re-enacted for the better part of 30 years and we were told to never yell for the medic. That was only for real emergencies. INstead, we were taught to yell surgeon when we were "shot". Not sure if that was a re-enactment thing or what they actually said back then.
Back then, they loaded you up in a wagon with no suspension, packed with all the other wounded and amputees like sardines, then they took you on a multiday wagon ride, to the 12 or so doctors with several hundred other wounded laid out on the bare ground.
@A P I dunno, getting taken out at the shin or forearm didn't necessarily mean death.....that day, anyway. W.H. Wallace took three days to die and that was AFTER being pulled off the field a day after he was wounded.
Steward, stretcher bearer or corpman as in hospital Corp is what you would call for. Medic is a post war term that we use to alert to modern medical situations in the field
Games like this with a commander that gives a shit and is it the mf zone all game are outstanding. had a commander like this guy on HLL and had the Best time of my life. good stuff
Usually you put the bayonet on the gun when you charge, not when you fire. I don't know if it affects reload speed or accuracy in this game but it sure af did in real life.
The bayonet in this game affects on sway of the weapon when aiming, but officers usually order putting on the bayonet right after the respawn, because at any moment the situation can escalate quickly from shooting to the bayonet charge and someone surely will not have time to put on the bayonet.
wheres that officer at? lol i feel like that last few times ive played officer was just either some kid or a know it all that good at giving orders but knows nothing of military doctrine
I hope the game puts in AI General/Captain mode so people can command actual firing lines of bots that follow lines and orders without people runing solo or going infront of others when they shoot.
I watched the video against my better judgement but I found this game caught my attention. It seems to be a good game. It's the name that turns me off because that was not what the war was about.
Confederate basis for the war was that they had the right to secede the Union. Union basis for the war was that they didn't. It was a war of rights. Edited a word.
@John DED , I get your argument, but it wasn't the fundamental cause. For 50 years prior to the war, the north and south have been bickering and dying over slavery and no other issue. So, it seems to me that it was not the right to secede but the right for people to own other people that predicted the right to secession. I know we can go round and round with this, and for some people the war is not over, and I fear it will be the undoing of the USA.
@@johnded3874 - The right to secede so they could hold other human beings as chattel in bondage from which they could never escape. That's not a right worth fighting for and deserving of death. That was what the US Civil War was about.
@@SleepyPenguinz Hah! I will admit that I know very little about Ryzen & Radeon sectors. My field lays more within the I Cores & Nvidia. BUT I google your specs regardless and yes, your shit will definitely run! How smooth though? Don't know. But don't expect 15 fps or lower. It should at least be in the 20 frame fps. Then again, Ruzen & Radeon may work different for that matter. So take it with a grand of salt I suppose. But if your specs had the exact same numbers under the names of Intel & Nvidia then it would have been a 100% smooth performance with those numbers.
