I have been in the warhammer mood for a while now and I was surprised at how few 40k games there were. I stumbled upon this game and had a great amount of fun with it. This game is enjoyable for any Warhammer 40k fans. If you are not a fan I think you probably wont enjoy this game as much. The modles are not that good or the map textures and structure. Also the 2 servers are almost alwayse empty. However there still is alot of fun multiplayer action gameplay to be found in this little empty mod if you have the patience to wait for players.

If you are into early 19 century warfare, rain drenched trenches, or old fashion "charge in with bayonets in large numbers and get slaughtered” game play this is the perfect game for you!
Weapons in the game range from good old fashion bolt action rifles with bayonets to spiky clubs to batter your enemies around with! There are also good heavy machine guns for the support class that is very effective yet not overpowered for you must be prone to set up the machinegun. Since this is WW1 you must be thinking that this game has no strategy whatsoever, however that is where you are wrong. There are many trenches to hide and fire from safely and open areas with heavy machinegun fire and artillery fire. There is a simple commands list too so you can tell your team to charge out of the trench and attack without a mic! The officer class also brings alot of strategy into the game. The officer can call in artillery and gas support through his binoculars but is very vulnerable considering he is only equipped with a pistol to defend himself. The game mostly revolves around capturing trenches and territories such as "no man’s land" to receive reinforcements and win the game. There are three classes to choose from in WW1 source:
INFANTRY: primary: bolt action rifle with bayonet
Secondary: 2 hand grenades
SUPPORT: primary: Light machinegun
Secondary: a club for close range
OFFICER: primary: binoculars
Secondary: handgun

In short WW1 source is one of the best non-modern multiplayer source engine first person shooter games out there. SO STOP READING AND START DOWNLOADING! FILL THOSE DAMN SERVERS!!

This was probably the best half life 2 mod I have ever played. The house part in my opinion was the best part of the mod. After playing the house for a few hours I found my self too afraid to navigate through my own house in real life because the game was so detailed and imersive. The action part was also very intense and imersive. I felt like I was a real badass shooting no scopes, firing duel pistols and kicking random **** at terrorists XD. Over all this game was an incredible experience and I couldnt recommend it enough.
I have a few suggestions though for the next chapter.
1: THE HOUSE
1. Throughout the new house that your working on I think you should add little flashback parts as you enter new parts of the house like in amnesia.
2. I think there should be a point to going through the dreams like a final door that opens when you finish all the dreams that tells you about a criticle memory/secret that the character had, locked deep down in his mind.
3. I think the main character should have had a baby before his wife kills herself thats like 3 that also died and haunts the house along with your wife. Just imagine hearing a little boy laughing or crying/screaming as you walk through the house at night. o.o that would be ******* scary!
2: CHAPTER 1
1: If Underhell is a prison I think you should show parts of a prisoners day like working, eating and talking in the cafeteria, and day to day stuff like that just to make the person fell like they are in a real prison.
Thats all I have to say and I hope chapter 1 will be as good as the prologue!

This mod has pretty good weapons and the map design is alright but it really just doesnt feel like nazi zombies. The mod has bonuses like max ammo or insta kill and you can buy weapons off the walls and open doors but it just doesnt feel the same. Also the zombies are the fast zombies from half life 2 and that is the complete opposite of the slow zombies from nazi zombies.
