This is one of those games I picked up due to online hype and it lived up to the hype for once. I think what hyped me was just funny videos of battles in progress, especially that one video of the loud Scotsman taking the fort.
I first played it in 2021 and for some reason played a ton of naval matches.

| First game ever. |
 |
| You can just aim and fire a cannon whenever you want? Sweet! |
 |
| First game was a win! |
 |
| There is a FPS mode but it's not amazing. |
 |
| You can swim if you're near the coasts! |
 |
Played a whole game as a musician. |
There are coastal invasion maps as well but these are tough.

I picked it up again in June and July 2023 and with the help of my nephew cleared a bunch of the achievements.
^ It takes a while to respawn and often you will be far from the mayhem. But this is part of the charm!
I am missing about 10~ achievements, all somewhat do-able but time is getting away from me.
^ A few guys were camped near or spawn point and would challenge everyone to fist fights!
Green riflemen have the best aim and guns but it's almost like easy mode.
So many neat little things you can do, like help move cannons!
Capture points can be really difficult.
The 'hands up' gesture is so funny I die laughing anytime I see it.
Great place to hold out!
One of my very few decent games.
Bunch of guys held up in this lake. Too funny.
A sweet line.
The bridge of death.
Rockets being fired are so pretty <3

I usually go line infantry - solid all-rounders.
Very briefly on top...
An inspiring speech, but I have voices muted so I don't even know.

The only game I want to play now is Star Ocean 2-R, but will have to wait until November. I may do a run through some of the Final Fantasy games to warm up for that, plus the usual Fallout run throughs when I get the urge to play 'em in autumn.
