WWI Source: Fight in the rain soaked trenches or charge over No Man’s Land to battle in the War to End All Wars. Use authentic weaponry to conquer the enemy, call in artillery strikes to take out enemies en masse, or use chemical warfare to disable your opponents! WWI Source is the first and only World War I game to be developed for Steam. All the current WWI mod teams (‘The Trenches 2’, ‘Fields of Horror’, ‘WWI Source’) have united to develop the best World War I game to the Steam community, using the latest Source engine. Please visit the official website for more information on WWI Source and the team.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you out there from the WWI: Source team! November has been another relatively slow, uninteresting month as we work to tidy everything up and wrap up the final features needed for our public beta release, and we are still on track for that happening in 2009! We could use the services of a weapons animator to help us get this done, so if you or someone you know is capable and might be interested, drop us a line. No media this month as beta draws ever closer, but soon you’ll be able to take all the screenshots you want of WWIS yourself when you are playing it. One final note: our server provider for our internal playtesting server has backed out and dropped support for us, so we could use some help finding a new one!

Talk to you next month, which should be a very interesting news post to say the least!

EDIT (Wickit)
sneaky added a few shots of another map by SOL ww_bunker check the media

As long as we will invest something in it it will live. I mean the mod.
I just want it to be a full game on CD.

I'm glad you guys decided to hold off on the release. As eager as I am for a good WWI mod, I'd much rather have a nicely-polished beta rather than an alpha. Here's to a smooth, continued development!

I would think a big reason would be that the mod desperately needed some new content, and the TT players were told they'd be getting updates in the future, but things got tied up with the dev team for various reasons and the mod stayed in its beta form for years until they announced it wasn't going to happen...

In all that time, people just either got bored of it, or stopped playing, figuring "hey, eventually there will be a better version out!" It's happened with other mods, and even full games. Not to mention that HL1 is an aging engine, and without an update and fresh coat of paint, a lot of people are turned off by it; add that to the fact that The Trenches 2 was announced and that a lot of people generally aren't as interested in WWI as other scenarios. It's happened with other mods, and even full games. But eh, just my two cents. I still think it's a very fun mod to play. :I
