Verdun Online Windows, Mac game

Verdun Online

Verdun is a stand-alone game developed on the ground breaking unity3D engine. Verdun will combine epic team play centered first person shooter action with the never before seen battles of World War I.

Verdun has been in development since late 2006, where two computer science students decided to combine their powers to create a real game. For the past years, we have been extracting idea's and have created a lot of concepts of how we want to give shape to Verdun. Our inspiration comes from current titles, history, basic game principles and innovating gameplay concept brainstorming.

Verdun will give shape to World War I for the first time in the history of games. There are no serious first person shooter game titles out on the market that focus on World War I. With Verdun we want to give a realistic point of view on the events of WWI combined with top notch team centered gameplay. 

Working with people who have been doing research in WWI for years, literature, actual field trips and hobbyist archaeologists who know the battlegrounds by heart, we have gained serious knowledge about most aspects of WWI. This knowledge has allowed the Verdun team to create assets and gameplay concepts that give a realistic impression of the events and material of World War I.

Common knowledge of WWI has led to some misconceptions claiming that it would be boring to play due to the lack of weaponry or locations. Both of these, have proven to be rather superficial assumptions due to the extensive knowledge gained when developing this game. We have come to the conclusion that, just like the Second World War, this war had many faces.

Gameplay

The multiplayer part is the key aspect of the Verdun experience. Players who sign up will build there own personal military career inside the game. All actions you take in the field will be put into your personal profile, shaping your abilities for future battles. Every player will be unique in the way they can interact with the battlefield.

Sections
Gameplay in Verdun is centred around teambased multiplayer action. Verdun will allow you to team up in a squad, called a section. You can make form this unit with 5 friends or strangers. Each section has a unique type based upon excisting units. These unique units included names like the french foreign legion or United States marines. Each section has a range of abilities and equipment which is typical for the section. This allows a great variety of possibilities for you and your friends in the field.

Statistics
Got tired of player current titles because you couldn't keep up with people who play the game for 6 hours per day? We will put an end to this. In Verdun you can always be the best at any time. There will be country-based ranking as well as 'best of the day' top lists. Which give every player, including you, the possibility to become the best and show off your newly earned medals.

Clan Support 
Verdun will not only allow personal stats, but also stats based on the regiment you can create. More info on the specifics of the clan support will be available soon.
