    Isonzo commits to the WW1-era faithfully, with the pro’s and con’s that come with dealing with that time periods battles. I enjoyed the slower pace and more methodical approach to combat and objective capturing, and hope to see it continue to build a community of players willing to invest the time into the long battles.

    All in all, Isonzo is very good at what it sets out to do, which is provide an authentic WW1 battlefield for players to experience, this time way up in the Italian Alps. The series' new setting does add some nice visual variety to proceedings, and the extra verticality has a pretty major impact on gameplay and match flow, but ultimately, we would like a little more meat on the bone, whether that be more online modes, gameplay options or even a single player campaign one day. What's here though is bloody brutally brilliant, and if you enjoy a more tactical approach to online warfare, Isonzo is definitely worth a shot - just remember to rechamber that rifle!

    Isonzo is a multiplayer game with a solid proposal that has some problems. In relation to its realism, the beauty of its landscapes, the wildness of its confrontations, you have a game that can give you a lot. Although it is a niche game. The main problems that Isonzo WW1 has, besides some technical issues such as the texture overload or the horrible and screeching screams of dying men that sound out of tune, have to do with the design of its offensives. In my opinion, these confrontations can last longer than they should.

    Primarily aimed at a niche audience wishing to immerse themselves in the conflicts of the First World War and indulge in a realistic and demanding gameplay, Isonzo could still appeal to neophytes of the genre. The immersion in the battles is successful, notably thanks to the quality sound design. As long as our team makes the best use of the different classes’ abilities, the confrontations are quite enjoyable. However, one will have to overlook the outdated technical aspect that could put some people off.

    WW1 Verdun was very good. It was bare bones but it was intense and addictive. Isonzo is too complicated for its own good.

    I would recommend Verdun or Tannenberg for a similar but more refined experience.

    It is a disgrace how M2H and Blackmill Games disrespected Slovenians by completely ignoring us and our history of being constantly attacked,It is a disgrace how M2H and Blackmill Games disrespected Slovenians by completely ignoring us and our history of being constantly attacked, killed, genocided and tried to be deleted from history by every neighbouring nation, especially also Italy. One does not simply rename all geography Slovene names into Italian names because it seams more convenient for marketing! This just shows how stupidly ignorant and disrespectful the people at M2H and Blackmill Games are. Would you also go and rename all French geographic names into German in a WWII game like France doesn't even exist? Your people actually visited these places in Slovenia and still act like we don't exist?! Wow! What is this, did Italy bribe you to promote their fascist tendencies or are you just happy to support one sided genocidal versions of history? Full Review »
