The playtest for Over the Top: WWI, a brutal third-person 100 vs. 100 multiplayer shooter is live now until Monday, December 9, 2024 at 3AM CST. The game lives up to the name with it's over the top multiplayer cap, action, and ability to tear apart buildings.
From the developer's own boilerplate:
"Over The Top: WWI brings brutal real-time third-person multiplayer and singleplayer combat set in the muddy fields of the First World War, presenting players with the opportunity to re-fight the Great War as either the Central Powers or the Triple Entente.
Step onto the front lines and claim every weapon and vehicle in sight as your own. Whether you choose to confront the Germans head-on or overpower the British resistance, the choice is yours. Arm yourself with a diverse arsenal, including rifles, artillery, and even tanks, as you navigate the mud-soaked battlefields of the Great War.
Will you face the enemy alone in singleplayer or lead a powerful army into the fray in the included multiplayer mode? The decision is yours to make on these historic battlegrounds."
Key features of the playtest include:
Testing of the Campaign Gamemode. This mode is all about battling to take over territories. Once a territory has been played, it can't be selected for another round, leaving plenty of room to return later to fight over it again. An interesting feature of this game mode is its 'persistent destruction' mechanic in which any demolition and destruction left in a territory from previous skirmishes are still there should players return to that territory to fight over it again. Another challenge added to the playtest includes different time of day battles so you could end up in a nighttime battle. Detailed stats will be displayed after each battle. The developers would like some feedback on their Campaign Mode UI so pay attention what works for you and voice what doesn't!
The Class System in OTT: WWI has been reworked: Feedback from the previous playtest has been implemented to rework some of the available classes to include a new Armoured Class, replacing the Mechanic Class.
New Uniforms have been added include Scottish uniforms.
A new map has been introduced to the game in this playtest which includes a German airfield.
Vehicle Physics have been reworked and motorbikes with sidecars have been added.
Perks have been reworked to make them more unique and impactful in terms of variety and strategy.
The playtest includes multiplayer and singleplayer modes, so playtest it until time's up and be sure to give the developers feedback on bugs, fixes, and what mechanics worked for you and what didn't.
We're eager to see this game improve and where it lands once it's out of the playtesting phase. To join the playtest, make your way over to the Over The Top: WWI Steam page and request access.
