Foxhole logistics players going on strike, demanding improvements

A group of Foxhole players are going on strike to pressure the developers into address issues they feel ruin their chosen role in the war, logistics. The World War 2 sandbox MMO is a persistent battle where weapons, vehicle, and building rely on resources gathered, processed, and delivered by other players, without whom the war machine slows down. Our boy Brendy called logistics "the real heroes" when he rode with them a few years back. But many are unhappy with the current state of their role, so they've formed a union.

Logistics players in MMO wargame Foxhole 'go on strike'




The wise general knows that wars are not won on the battlefield, but that supply and planning truly make the difference. The hyper-granular realism of counting every bullet and ration favored by old wargames usually doesn't find its way to videogames; it's typically much more fun to zoom around Mars at 60mph vaporizing cacodemons with both barrels than to try and keep your battalions well-stocked through a winter march...

Update 47 - Field Bridges, Modular Half-Tracks, Tripod Weapons, and More!

If you are enjoying these updates, please take the time to leave us a review. Thanks!



Field Bridges

Combat Engineers can now use Metal Beams to build Field Bridges. Field Bridges are used to allow infantry and logistics operations to cross difficult terrain. They can be built over water, destroyed bridges, small valleys, and other areas.



Field Bridges are provisional and must be replaced over time. Armoured and other heavy vehicles are unable to cross Field Bridges without them taking significant damage. The only exception are Armoured Car class vehicles, which can effectively cross bridges, giving them a unique role on the battlefield.

Modular Half-Tracks

The base Half-Track has been redesigned into a modular vehicle. It now has a universal mount that can be refitted with any Tripod weapon, transforming the Half-Track's role while on the field.



The new Half-Track rear has also been redesigned, giving it an additional role as an infantry carrier. It can now hold up to 4 passengers in the rear, in addition to the gunner and front seats on the vehicle.



New Tripod Weapons

To compliment the new Modular Half-Tracks, four new Tripod weapons are being introduced, including new machine guns, a mounted AT Rifle, and a dual barreled RPG.



Cinematic Camera

In Update 46 the Tactical Camera was introduced to Foxhole, giving players greater visibility on the battlefield. In this update, we're introducing the Cinematic Camera, which gives the players a cinematic view of the action, enabling them to create even better community content like screenshots and videos.



No Man's Land Improvements

In Foxhole, the landscape can be dynamically altered over time if it's been shelled by artillery for long enough. Some improvements were made to the visuals and gameplay for these areas. Most significantly, the Trench husks have been completely redesigned to provide cover and with higher visual fidelity.



O’Brien V.113 Gravekeeper

A slight variation of the V.110, the Gravekeeper comes fitted with an embedded Bonesaw launcher, transforming the humble armoured car into an effective indirect anti-armour vehicle.



T8 “Gemini”

Fitted with twin RPG launchers, the T8 employs hit-and-run assaults against enemy structures and emplacements.

There many other improvements, changes, and bug fixes in this update. Read the full release notes for the details.
