Foxhole Game Review as a Solo Player | This Game Turned Me Into an Extrovert :D

  • Foxhole is a VERY unique MMO where two teams duke it out in persistent, 24/7 wars that take around a month to finish, with technology developing from rifles in trenches to tanks & battleships as the war progresses.
    Some people think you need to be in a clan to play this game, but I find that playing alone and grouping up with anyone I see works too :D Had to come out of my shell a bit though.
    Footage is from well my channel, 2023-2024, Foxhole.

    Same for me here, I picked up the game almost four years ago, and the main barrier for me playing was going and talking to people. Because I wanted to play it so badly I managed to work through some of my social anxiety and it’s helped my life out in general because of that. The interactions in foxhole are the kind I can’t get anywhere else.

      And yesterday I was teaching a couple of newbies and when one of them saw the Argenti rifle, he said "I like this name, it sounds italian" then they found out that they were both Italians hahaha

    Great review! You really showed the thing I love most about Foxhole. What sets it apart from every other MMO is that there are no quests or missions or set roles, the game doesn't *tell* you what your objective should be or how to win the war, you just figure it out yourself. Like you said, the roles all tie in to each other and every one is essential. The whole game is about players creating stories for other players, rather than having the developers decide the plot.

      Regardless though, a little bit of the fun stuff does happen on our "normal" time, it's just A LOT rarer.
      The battle of Sagitta happened over the course of several days, and ended at around 2am PDT, which was probably around 5 or 6pm for you. Lots of Americans stayed up LATE for that one hahaha.

      Now that I think of it, on the few times that I do solo logi, I do it at very, very off peak hours (mostly for... social reasons like I said in the video) or in less active areas like in Stema. Maybe I should try solo logi at peak times, though that's in the really early hours of the morning for me.

      You shouldn't normally have problems like these. The only thing I can think of is clans building facilities on a resource field but even in that situation, you should normally always be able to gather resources from the field still. Maybe coal and oil are different stories though, but components, scrap, and sulfur, what you're describing is very looked down upon by the vet community

      reading these replies, i must've been very unlucky in my encounters.. Maybe i've judged to soon, thanks folks for the replies that this infact is not the norm, wich i believed it was after having it happen multiple times

      Me neither, I'm sure it'll happen eventually but it can't be all that common

    Gotta love all the CFR✚ videos! Those were really good times that I remember fondly. Even funnier to be featured during the artillery section despite us being a medical regiment xD Sure took a lot of patience to organize those ops but I was damn happy people were enjoying themselves

      The medic artillery battery was too good to not put in hahahaha
      This video had me pulling clips from all of my hard drives, it was very nostalgic XD
