A game where camping is pretty much the best strategy you have. Verdun is a World War I first person shooter that takes you back to the trenches in a time where old tactics were used for modern warfare. The game itself is easy enough to understand, you have two sides. The allies and the axis, each side has it's own squad types and each squad type has it's own unique abilites and classes minus the allies. Which have two of the same squad type. One for the French and one for the English.

If you're expecting intense action and constant battle, you may find it here. The game basically has two modes the frontlines and straight up deathmatch. I've never played deathmatch but it's basically a free for all mode. Frontlines is the main event and probably the reason to play the game in my opinion. Each map has a set amount of trenches for each team and you're suppose to either defend them or attack them. The game doesn't force you to go take the trenches but you'll make the game come to a draw if no one makes any headway.

No mans land is the worst part for any attacking team. Snipers, machine gunners, and pretty much anyone with a weapon and the brain to shoot it will do so. I'm not gonna lie, you will die... a lot. While you don't see it a bunch in the game, team work is key. Stay with your NCO or squad leader and try not to get him killed. In the worst case scenario, you take a bullet to the dome and you spawn on your NCO if he wasn't an idiot and got himself killed. Move from cover to cover and never stick your head out for too long.

Overall, it's a great game. It promotes playing the objective and rewards players that work as a team. Combat is fast paced but can be slow. The graphics and visuals are really well done and the game has a minimalistic hud. Getting it on sale is a steal as well.



tl;dr
