Way more fun than it has any right to be for $16. It's like a hyper-chaotic mix of Battlefield and Red Orchestra.

My only gripe is the Stormtrooper and Specialist classes are way too overpowered with the LMG, SMG, and Auto-Rifle options. Automatic weapons that can be hipfired and carried around without movement penalty. They are just so ridiculous and oppresive to play against in a game with mounted machineguns and bolt-action rifles. You're basically a one-man army that can decimate an entire push when using one. I know that historically yes, the Hotchkiss, Lewis Gun, Madsen, Chauchaut, and MP18 were deployed in the war but the implementation of them here is just way too lopsided. ADS, hipfire spread while walking/ strafing, and movement speed should have been affected in a much more negative way for the Hotchkiss, Madsen, Lewis Gun, and Chauchaut to balance them and promote holding chokepoints. Frankly the MP18 shouldn't really be in the game. 4,000 were used across the entire war and it's just a huge balance issue.
