July 2025

This game deserves to be continued I have no idea why it died, such a shame. Overall great game even though its dead still fun to play!

June 2025

With the caveat that the game's player base has moved on, I find this game to be superior to its competitors like Holdfast. Destructible environments and even limited loadout options go a long way to adding a lot of depth in the game; it's always fun to dig a trench while under fire. The only aspect of the game that was worse was the stability with the servers causing lag, though I never found it that bad until hundreds of players were in a special event. I miss the game and if the player base were to come back I would have absolutely no problem with recommending this game.

Dec. 2024

The game is good. The various ways to command bots and the different orders was a surprise as I searched for such a civil war game for a long time and it's implement simplistically but still in a good way. Apart from that, the game is dead and only worth it for 1.20 euros. But as a hands on, on the ground regiment lead it is a good game, especially if you have good friends to play with. Wouldn't recommend buying without a large sale.

Oct. 2024

Make it free to play if you don't add an offline mode where I can set my own play style by changing the number of bots and their difficulty. The game has a very nice atmosphere, but no one is online... so it's a bit redudant not to have the possibility to play offline against bots... Please change that!

Oct. 2024

Played 80 mins against bots and I have been playing ACW games since 1990 so trust me when I say that this is the best ever ACW FPS ever created from customization of character to weapons and game play functionality. It is tragic that the devs quit on this game. I guess they figured they got all the money they could out of it. This has so much going for it. It is still fun solo in a server fighting bots.
