Great video about Foxhole! This game is definitely not for everyone but for those of us that do fall in love with it, we fall hard. Logistic is what made me get this game. And I love doing my logistics "job" when I log in and supplying the fronts to help our faction move forward. And side note the thing about mass reporting has gone down, but it does still exist unfortunately. We are working on building a more positive and welcoming community for new players. Thanks again for making this!

One of my favorite aspects of Foxhole is the artillery system. Artillery guns can shoot incredibly far- so far, in fact, that the binoculars won't let you see out to their minimum range. This means any spotters have to approach the front lines and do _trigonometry_ to calculate the optimal firing vector.

[@Habo777-o4q]

[@samw5644]

the most horrifying moment i've ever had in gaming was in foxhole. namely taking a trench/bunker system only to be wiped out by a counter attack with the collies using flamethrowers, it was like something out of all quiet on the western front.

[@suchla12]

I remember when i bought Foxhole couple years back. I spawned in frontline region "Faranac coast" i think was a name. I was trying to figure out what to do and all of sudden some dude pulled up with a truck. He noticed i am new, he tell everyone to commend me and asked me what my favorite animal is. I then jumped into the truck, he brought me to the actual front and i died shortly after. In this map, there is (or maybe was) this narrow path with rock on both sides of the road. We were fighting back and forth there for 3-4 days. Finally we pushed through and take out enemy base. I died in the process... but as i was going back from spawn, i had one of the best moment in gaming. There was column on the right of the road - tanks, trucks bringing supply to new base, construction vehicles, bus full of soldiers and in the other direction, there was column of push guns, tanks and truck which we stole from the colies. Everyone was cheering and yelling. It was special

[@smithynoir9980]

[@MakeShiftTVNetwork]

My favorite Foxhole moment. 4 partisans caught me on the way to the front with supplies. I hopped out of my truck and took cover behind it. They were coming from the front of the truck and I only had a pistol to defend myself. I peeked around the corner and took out the two on my left side before they could fire back. I moved to the left side of the truck while the two remaining enemies came from the right side. I peeked the back corner where I had just been standing and took out another enemy. The final enemy panicked and tried to run away and I shot him in the back. I took all of their gear and delivered it with my supplies to the front. The guys at the front asked where I got Warden gear and after I told them the story everyone cheered and commended me. Foxhole is an incredible game! Logi gang!

The thing about Foxhole is you learn whatever small section you're interested in. Whether that be Infantry, Trucker, Factory worker, Engineer, Scraper gatherer. Tanker, Seaman, etc. Its near impossible to do it all but it forces people to band together and each pick a piece of the puzzle to create cohesive organizations. If anyone is looking to join foxhole then I recommend you join a regiment(clans). There a lot of them who try to focus on different things.

[@synchc]

What's the incentive of working in a factory though? Do you level/rank up, get money to spend on the front? I don't get why anyone would play logistics in a top down war game.

This game is teamwork. Anything form, "Can you carry this tripod so I can place this machine gun out on the frontline?" to "Hey, come be a part of my tank crew." It can be great for making people feel involved just from people talking to others, and with how many unofficial roles you can take on, some seemingly more important than others, but everything is for the war effort at the end of a day. You might be swinging a hammer relentlessly at a building of yours being besieged to stop it from falling, or you might be a medic risking their meat out in the midst of gunfire to save your fellow teammates.

[@BlackTalonGaming]

Absolutely true. I bought the game months ago, and watched tutorials. I played for a few hours, and got some logi done, fired a few times at some dudes...and then joined a Bridge Battle. That bridge battle was all it took. I was hooked and now I love it.

[@BlackTalonGaming]

[@rigormortis1860]

I have to disagree heavily about the difficulty of basic logistics. You can learn all you need to know about basic logi just by playing the game as a frontliner, and then asking someone who knows what's going on about how to actually make stuff. It only gets complicated when you try to make your own facility or base.

[@ambientlightofdarknesss4245]

I agree with that. It really is as hard or has easy as you can make it. Even sending Basic materials to a front under heavy fire or fuel to a front where it's full of tanks Is a godsend. And usually dictates wether your base gets destroyed or your tanks overrun. It really can be as easy as Hammer resources-> Refine them -> put in truck -> send to front

[@Izumiuo]

I agree, but it is mainly your approach on logi. If you mean delivering from a stockpile to a frontline base. Yea its pretty easy to learn. Its also easy to learn scrapping -> refinery -> factory -> seaport/stockpile. Tho that's pmuch where basic for me ends. Sulfur/components -> refinery -> MPF/factory/garage -> seaport/stockpile is a bit harder to 100% learn while the basic principles are still the same, harder to know what is needed for these resources at what frontline base. They are always pretty spread out from one another, sometimes your main logi hex will not have any of these. Facility and Naval logi a whole other thing too. Naval logi is pretty dope to see aint for me tho. The real hard part of learning logi is the gameplay loop. Not so much learning the loop, its preventing burnout. If you do not enjoy playing logi or like relaxing gameplay you will 100% burn yourself out super quick doing logi. You gotta enjoy the gameplay loop to somewhat have fun doing logi (still boring tho). Literally today I spent like 12 hours in the backline doing the same loop over and over again ~ this is why people say logi is hard imo. Now I havn't watched the video so lowkey I got no idea what he says in it. I just checked the comments cause im a player of foxhole and wanted to see what people were commenting.

[@Jebu911]

Yeah you can do very effective logi by just driving your truck around also thats the best way to be the mvp on a frontline. I think its just easy to learn game but hard to master.

@@DakkerUK to be fair, I play a lot of logi and 90% of the how to do things I learn from just asking logi chat or someone noticing I'm lost and telling me over local voice chat. And even the rest of the 10% that I looked up out of curiosity, could have been learned in the same way. Most people will be happy to help and teach you things if you ask. And those who've played for longer will even have exact specifics, numbers memorized ^^" I pass on the knowledge that I've gotten too, the cycle continues.

[@33mavboy]

Or you can go to the roads just behind the enemy lines and get logi that way :) not to scare you. But quite alot of people don't give a shit and deliver to the front regardless of people stopping them, they just want to farm the commends, those people shouldn't be playing. Talking bout those NPC's with no mic, if they got a mic we usually sort it out.

[@Ghost_6012]

It would look a bit overwhelming, but if you are interested in logistics the most important thing you should know is that basic materials, also called dearly as "bmats" are used to make mostly everything as well as fixing structures, and to make bmats you need to harvest salvage from salvage mines or fields.

[@Skillz_4_Thrillz]

Foxhole's appeal and the thing that makes the tedious less tedious, is that each small objective achieved is working towards a larger goal. I remember a war I was a part of on a front in Acrythia. It was Day 2 of the fighting so there was no tanks or arty, just good ol fashion mammon rushes. Us and the Wardens were in a 3 hour stalemate between fortifications that couldnt have been more than 40 meters apart lol. At night time the entire warden team would grab mammons, everything would go silent for a few minutes as they grabbed their grenades once darkness fell and then BOOM! 50 Wardens right on top of us out of the darkness, overwhelming our trenches just chucking HE grenades at our defenses. You couldnt see more than 20 meters in front of you so you had little time to shoot back. Inch by inch they destroyed our fortifications over a course of a few hours as we desperately tried to repair them while under fire. Colonials would slam themselves into the warden onslaught with bayonetts only for a warden to suicide himself with a grenade to take down the attacker so more Wardens could make it through. The beauty of Foxholes economy is that arguably the cheapest thing in the game to produce is small arms ammunition and your shirts (essentially your lives) which allows for this meat grinder to exist where your job as an infantryman souly revolves around tossing yourself in front of a bullet to protect your much more valued armor and static defenses for the glory of the legion. This is what makes the static meat grinder so intriguing. Battles on a front can go static for days with back and forth advancements but I know every warden I kill is one less shirt they have every second I waste is another second I stall for the bigger clans to hatch a plan to break through. Everything you do slowly contributes to the war.

[@buckplug2423]

And it's really nice how you have all these different scenarios. In a lot of games, you really fight the same battle with some small differences over and over again. But in Foxhole (infantry used as an example) you might be gaining and losing trenches, you might be maneuvering around open country with single enemies at the periphery of your vision, you may be on a low pop region hunting the enemy for their loot, you might be fighting in the hills and run into the enemy point-blank, you may be assaulting a Town Hall with gruesome urban combat or you might be throwing yourself at a bridge just to keep the enemy onslaught from your BB, with no ground gained and hundreds of casualties - and all of that in the day, during the night, in snow, rain, mud. Even though infantry is only one small aspect of the game it rarely ever gets boring - and if it does, you can do something else or fight somewhere else.

I've always been an infantryman. Just another body thrown at the front. Highlights of my playthroughs so far would be: - Getting stuck in a relic base for a full half an hour unable to do anything as high caliber shells pounded everything around us. - A collapsing front which was saved by the timely arrival of friendly tanks. The euphoria of having the cavalry arrive and save the day was unforgettable even if I died when our infantry mass charged alongside the tanks. - Fighting in a doomed last stand alongside a single remaining Warden tank who also refused to retreat while the Collies swarmed us.

[@xFlow150]

I love crafting in games, it's one of the things I most anticipate in a game when available. However, many MMOs I played have relatively lackluster crafting systems and, for me, the results of crafting in such games lack meaning as well as depth. Yet, in Foxhole the crafting system is in depth and every single thing I produce has meaning. That's what drew me into the game. Personally, I don't think the game is too complicated, you have to take it one step at a time instead of trying to learn everything simultaneously.

[@Thraakull]

Foxhole is now on sale and I am seriously thinking about getting it, although nowadays I am grinding Project Zomboid experience - imho Foxhole really, really deeply simulates what a real war is like, for even in real life war or basically any conflict, or even anythin relying on multiple sources, it imho still relies on the most important things: skill and knowledge. Can you imagine Euro Truck Simulator 2 if it was an MMORPG? How many times would it happen to you, just like in real life, that you would roll up in time with your fancy-ass lorry / geared out semi truck into a location where you are supposed to load or unload goods and will have to wait for couple of hours, days even, just because "noobs are in the game" and it takes them a lot of time to finish tasks, yours also. If throughout my life and my gaming career and ESPECIALLY tactical games I have learned something, then it is that COMMUNICATION is the key - is it frustrating to be surrounded by noobs (in any game or IRL scenario) ? Yes! Is it your fault if by proper communication you cannot make things happen and people cooperate? Absolutely!

Best thing you can do to enjoy foxhole is join a regiment either in game or through discord. Players want to teach you partially to make you a more useful meatsack but so that you can learn to enjoy the game too. There is dedicated builders, facility managers and logi players in almost every regiment. These people allow you to do the largest and most coordinated operations and battles. But you can also just hop in and trench and ask "what can I do to help" or "how do I do this" and there will be people there to help. And you can have these amazing moments where you go from 10 random strangers to a band of brothers rushing trenches together, cordinating defensive play or disrupting enemy supplies by blocking a road and gunning down the next truck you see behind the frontline

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="538">8:58</a> You nailed it on the head. I've played Foxhole since 2018 and the one thing that has changed over the years for the worse, is how much of a chore it feels like to play. Facilities take time and consistency, naval ship crewing and upkeep takes time and consistency, maintaining supply lines takes time and consistency. It's... rough for new players, especially ones with not a lot of disposable time on their hands. That being said, it's also a game that manages to bring some truly unique and wonderful experiences. I just can't recommend it on the basis that it demands your time rather than asks for it.

There's being such a big wave of non-foxhole youtubers doing Foxhole videos and attracting new people! Cheers mate! People like you don't keep this game alive... they DUPLICATE it's essence.

[@ScheelAngel]

We’re happy to take any new players. I enjoy teaching new players. It’s kinda fun being really knowledgeable because I get to make an impact on the game in new ways.

[@wolfcraft4501]

The points you brought up were exactly why I was interested in Foxhole and exactly why I struggle to want to sign on when I have free time

[@Will-no6te]

Foxhole's a blast. As a new(ish) player I started by hyperspecializing - just did front line logi driving. That's it. Picking up stuff from storage, and dropping it off at frontline bases. Easy stuff, you're basically an uber eats driver for instruments of death. Then I thought about focusing on what people would actaully need on the front... So, I played frontline soldier for a bit. From that, I learned about what equipment would really make a difference in the fighting. What would give us an advantage? What do we need? I applied that knowledge back to logi running and the commends (praises from other players) started flowing in 😎 I've expanded out from there recently to manufacturing, shipping, driving, and commanding a tank with crew. Start small and expand at your own pace. Anything you do makes a difference, no matter how small the contribution. If you like that feeling, Foxhole's the game for you.

The intro art is some of the best ai art i've seen for foxhole.

[@ulrikmller3161]

I'm 90% sure that is not AI art. There are dedicated Foxhole artist out there. My regiment commisioned an art piece about 6 months ago and the art style looks very similar so it's propably the same guy

Welcome to foxhole. I think the important part of foxhole, is focus on small stuff 1st, for 1st time logi. Here my recommends to do for first time logi, 1. Go logi hub 2. Grab a unuse Logi truck, dont see any available truck ask others player in the region. (there you get a free teacher) 3. flow your teacher flow.... . . . 3. Mine at salvages mines, until your truck is full 4. Find a refinery factory, make Basic materials (B mat) 5. Send it to the frontline

Best Milsim Creator!!! You inspire me Slorgs! My biggest problem is, having enough free time outside of working, to make videos! Keep killin' mate!

[@boogie5]

Have you seen the First Person Perspective mod? It's pretty gnarly, I'm sure it's janky as hell, but the novelty alone is worth checking out!

[@slorgs]

cheers man, i think the play is definitely to invest spare time into 1 banger video at a time when your time is limited instead of trying to cover all the updates and shit because that will wear you down real fast, at least in my experience as a fellow also having a full time job enjoyer

[@boogie5]

@@slorgs Funny you say that! I did my best work yet (spent too much time) on THREE videos starting 5 videos ago... "High Production" lol AND, they winded up being literally my poorest performing videos in years! My community said I should not put too too much effort into any one single video... But truth be told, I still lean with you, I put at least ENOUGH effort into each and every video! yeah yeah, I made my BEST video yet, in 7 years! However, it is not "KZbin friendly" as it is the type of video you need to watch all the way through haha. That, and I totally fumbled with the Title and Thumbnail as I was kind of rushed to get it out by that point! Yeah, I gave it an AI thumbnail (boo this man!) and the Title doesn't fully represent what the video is REALLY about. With that said, if and when you have a spare 12 minutes, I implore you to watch this video! I drop some old man gaming knowledge for real for real, and I think you will enjoy it! I talk about something pretty profound actually, and I have yet to see anyone else touch on exactly what I touch on in this video... But anyway, sorry for the novel, keep kicking ass! Consider watching this video of mine, if you ever watch any! I know you will enjoy it, and you should learn quite a bit about the gaming industry, and maybe even take a little convoluted look into "Gaming's" future! 😁🪖 kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3fSonmFh5qZrdk&t

I have most definitely played it… I played it at the first early access launch! It has changed so, so much. So much deeper with more ways to play it now. I’m really excited about the new melee weapons in this recent update

Great insight and presentation. Subscribed.

[@bobflemmet7454]

This game is amazing! Had a blast playing the other day even without a mic, I was accepted into the 501 squad after derping around with them and then our island got attacked by a gun boat and we had to evacuate the supplies! 11/10 and I wish this game had come out when I was younger and had more time to actually play

[@buttergolem8584]

Actually, I did play 250 hours when it released and it was holiday were I lived. Back then it was only one map at a time. My first war was nearly 7 days long. After that each war would take only like a day and I stopped playing. Now this game is massive, the maps are put together and so many new systems.

[@Owen88-bt2hl]

My first experience was being shelled in the Moors, I spawned in a town base and spent five minutes trying to open my inventory. I found voice chat and told the guys I was new and they helped walk me through the basics. There were about 5-8 of us and once we were geared we rushed out of the base, about half of us were killed instantly by a shell and we found cover in a trench. Some guy with a machine gun down the line was screaming for ammo, and somebody ran to get him some, only to be shot leaving the trench. My initial group was almost dead, just me and one other guy who has survived by a miracle. A fresh group arrived in a truck and yelled at us to push, we went over the top and got mowed down, 20 of us killed in an instant. I respawned and spent 45 minutes trying to capture one trench line, only to lose it right after. 10/10 would get PTSD again. Edit: I’m still very new, I joined war 117 and only know how to be cannon fodder. I tried logi but my truck caravan was ambushed, so I have yet to be truly useful, you’re just a cog in the machine.

[@DukesUp1]

Me and all my friends find foxhole a really cool game in idea, but actually playing the game kinda sucks. The way you have to stand still and can barely move to shoot accuratley, it just feels bad to be honest.

[@jaspy555]

Love this video, every time I watch a video like this it makes me wanna go hop right back into the action fighting for the colonials! I’ve been playing for a while now (on and off since war 108 I believe) and have never stopped loving it. I am actually grinding to get to SSGT (I’m getting really close) so I can create my own regiment- wish me luck!

[@swamhtet9861]

I saw naval invasion into Fishermans Row island . Yes , i am the one of who defending that island and i was the one who build AI Pill box near the cliff you guys has been shot. We successfully defended that naval invasion but sadly after 12 hours we lost control the island. GG

[@kettch777]

I agree, the barrier to entry for new players is kinda high. I've got enough hours in the game now to have a decent knowledgebase, and I've been considering creating a DI clan for the Wardens to train new recruits on the training grounds in different roles.

[@antekpaztek]

the way you discribed this game reminds me of One Hour One Life. its a game about living from generation to generation, 1 minute is 1 year and you live up to 60 years. if you werent mauled by a bear, died of hunger, lost you mother (wich is another player) at age 2. and you use the foundation of previous generations to build you future.

[@ndeertrack]

I just started a few weeks ago. So many people were eager to teach me once I showed that I was a team player and within a week I was recruited into a clan and I can now keep a front supplied, flank a tank line, keep a border base alive, and slow down an enemy advance to give builders and logistics players the time they need to support a counter attack. Incredible game!

[@SpaceMissile]

great video; very well presented. nice work. PS: <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="430">7:10</a> gave me PTSD flashbacks.

[@Like_a_Honeybadger]

With over 5K hours, i can confirm this game is like a second job with double shifts. But, i don't do everything alone and it's the moments of glorious wins and last stand defeats that you experience with other players, that makes this game. Great.

[@syborgcat3830]

„Realistic“ I’m sorry, I love foxhole but no, no it isn’t. Everything is so comically out of scale, It sure is immersive but it’s not realistic.

[@DillaSkates]

your intro to the game should be the first open cutscene! The last Hanged Men merc monologuing before he dies!

[@dapizzasnake8462]

This game is awesome, and i would pin that mostly on the community, theres nothing like building a tank and tanking with randoms, shouting at eachother in a crazed panic on the frontlines. Its very easy to get along with people in this game.

[@blackmegalogan307]

I still remember the horror I felt right before the end of war 118. It was my first time being a tank crewmember, ofcourse I was the gunner. As we pushed forward, the artillery kept on coming. My driver by the name of Bort, hopped out and went to repair... and was killed by artillery, two minutes later he came back from respawning... killed again. Then, as kids and grown men alike came running past the tank, I was screaming at them to "GET AWAY FROM THIS TANK! ARTILLERY IS AIMING FOR ME RIGHT NOW!" It took 10 minutes, and with the help of a Latvian dude and two other tanks, I finally managed to get the hell out of there.

[@soomshi]

Foxhole difficulty really depends on what you plan to do, from simple frontline infantry, to commander of operations or tank platoons, engineer/builder, there are tons of gameplay roles and meta to try out!

[@yutanarkavich]

7k here. Done anything possible in game. A boomer. I am one of those toxic veteran who is very critical about changes on but I still hop in sometimes just for the social aspect of it. It is unlike any other MMO.

Experimenting with AI are we? Well I don't have a problem with it but please don't spam so much of it, like use fan-art or renders first and only use AI if you lack the image to show for whatever you are talking about. other than that this is pretty good video.
