Early Access Review
Ok, so this is my first ever review, I'm not the best at writing so bear with me.

Foxhole is a supremely unique game, allowing you to contribute to multiple wars in the game. Every person you see running around is a player and they all have their jobs and things they need to do. I highly recommend that you work together with other players by joining one of the many clans within the game or get some friends to join you. There's so much you can do in this game. Whether it's getting materials to make supplies for the frontlines, or be at the frontlines in combat with the enemy, or healing the wounded and getting them back in combat. Foxhole's greatest feat is allowing you to choose what role you want. You're not forced into any role you don't want to be apart of.

Pros:
  • Foxhole gives their players a choice of what they want to do and how they contribute to the war, which is more than most games give, especially how many roles you can play as in Foxhole.

  • Foxhole gives you a choice of what faction you like to join and every faction has different weapons as well as vehicles you can choose from.

  • Any amount of cooperation with other players can change the tied of the battlefield. If you enjoy playing with other players and teamwork you would enjoy this.

  • Foxhole's price is perfect for early access and for what it gives you. I never had any issues with the price, at least to me anyway.

  • If you like lore, Foxhole has a massive amount of unexplored lore that the devs placed in wanting players to find. They also have a wiki talking about the lore and factions about Foxhole. So if you like having a background story during the wars this is also a fun thing they have.

  • One last pro is the community is awesome, there's so much that the community does and makes up, yes it's a bit toxic here and there but in the end, the community is pretty cool and the devs are giving out some awesome upcoming updates.
Cons:
  • Foxhole is a game that requires a massive amount of cooperation. I know I said this is a pro but to people who like to work alone this is a massive con. You can't do much on your own. All you can do on your own is send supplies to the front and just be 1 guy on the front but you'll end up dying more than anything.

  • Foxhole is still in early access so there's still a bunch of bugs here and there, but I wouldn't let it ruin your experience being in a war-torn world.

  • In Foxhole, there are sometimes massive queues in certain regions, so much that sometimes you'll be waiting for 10-15 minutes to get into it, there are ways around it but still a massive issue if Foxhole continues to grow. Queues happen when there are more members of a faction than the enemy side. It happens due to the server size as well. Only handing a certain amount of players.

  • Another con to Foxhole is how you rank up, there's a commends system. So basically with what you do and how you do in the war, some other players will commend you which you need a certain amount to get a rank up. This is a very long process, so if people play this casually don't expect to get ranked up fast with this system. Some people will even ignore you if your rank is too small. When I was a Corporal in-game I was telling a 2ndLt and some other people that we were getting flanked but they refused to listen to me due to my low rank and they ended up getting flanked and killed by the enemy. Some people can be ignorant when it comes to those things.

Overall, Foxhole is a fantastic game that gives you so many possibilities and roles you can be, especially with every new update the devs do that makes Foxhole so much more interesting. With the cooperation of other players, you can do anything to change the tide of the war. I highly recommend you try this game and if you don't like it you can always refund, but give it a chance, also try joining one of the many clans to get the full war experience Foxhole can truly be.

Edit/Note, New things are being added every season, so there's so much to look forward to in Foxhole. Best of all, the Community recommends things and the devs listen. - Edit Naval Update was added and brought me back to it a bit, Always loved Naval combat and beach landing in Foxhole, now even more it's possible to hit your targets by using battleships. Highly recommended
