First off: I'm going to recommend this game in spite of the very true position being taken by those who have not recommended it. The game has a low player count and even with the addition of bots to pad the servers, its fairly lonely in there (most of the time). However, this is how it shall remain forever if people simply turn away from it. Someone has to pioneer the way for others to follow. Beyond the wire is a truly incredible game. Its not "the hell let loose of WW1"....it's the Squad of WW1 but given the 100 years time difference between where Squad is set and when this is set, it gives a totally different feel and different mechanics come into play more. Melee weapons in particular see far more use in the trenches and shell craters of the Western front in 1917 than they do in the 2010s/2020s of faster paced conflicts that are reflected in Squad. Weapons in this game feel weighty, connecting rounds from trusty bolt action rifle feels like an achievement and closing with the enemy with a club wrapped in a strand of barbed wire, down in the trenches, is a thrill. As with all things Squad and Post Scriptum (now Squad '44), everything is beautifully animated and the sound design is absolutely spot on. It's a niche timeline, there's very little out there to compete with this. Verdun, Tannenburg and Ionzo are all great but are nowhere near as mechanically complex or brilliant as this. Post Scriptum was totally dead once, now rebranded as Squad '44 its having a revival, its slowly but steadily coming back to life. There is absolutely no reason that the same can't be done with Beyond the Wire. Read the negative reviews on here, most admit its a brilliant game, its main issue is that there aren't enough people who have it and therefore the playerbase is sparse. Let's change that.

Found this game insanely special to me, especially when it came out on my birthday; it just doesn't get enough players for anyone to recommend. It's just a bummer that absolutely nobody plays it anymore. The most they could do is make it free to play, advertise the game more, or put the price down to as little as 5 bucks.

really fun and looks great but the game is dead I would really enjoy it if the game had bots than it wouldn't be dead and would be more action

This game is amazing, I have no idea why players aren't playing it (advertise it more, or give a discount to people who already have other games from the same publisher). There is most definitely a player base for this, we just need to show then this game exists! Honestly, even contemplate about letting this game go F2P and making your money back like the enlisted game (please have a progression system so people feel like their earning something while they play, like unlocking weapons)
