Even better, a pair of binoculars allows you to place waypoints over the heads of your rival soldiers, while green dots hover on your friendlies, as if the conscripts of 1917 suddenly had access to 21st-century augmented reality. The weapons are period appropriate - single-shot rifles with lengthy reload times are the norm - but your soldier can equip battle perks, as if they're dropping into Verdansk, that might improve their bandaging speed or reduce their weapon sway. This game is at its best when you and your company scramble up a hill through plumes of mustard gas and sparks of machine gun fire, to finally tip the scales and gain a foothold in No Man's Land.īut unlike other, more simulation-heavy World War One games, Isonzo is very much a modern first-person shooter that combines the brutal aesthetics of the period with a whole slew of Call of Duty-ish design ideas. With a full complement of 48 players – which is currently easy to come by – Isonzo captures the mayhem of mechanized warfare: rifle shells zing past your helmet, mortars crack open the cliffs, trenches are conquered with bayonet thrusts. Isonzo has exactly one game mode and follows a fairly conventional format: You’ll spawn in your territory, rush to the front lines, and attempt to either overcome the entrenched forces of your adversaries, or stave off the surge of troops trying to rout your battalions, depending if you're on offense or defense. ![]()
