Preis Update 23.07.23

Beyond the Wire is a large scale multiplayer first-person shooter immersing players in the frantic and bloody Western Front of the Great War. In battles with up to 100 real-world combatants, players will have to contend with large open maps and tight claustrophobic trenches. Utilizing both period-appropriate guns and a more tactical close-quarters melee combat system, the action in Beyond the Wire is more comprehensive than anything seen in a WW1 game to date.

Beyond the Wire is now entering Early Access, with its wider release scheduled for 2021 or 2022. Be sure to follow us for development updates and information about new content. We thank everyone that participated in our Closed Alpha!

A Unique Melee System
Melee combat adds one last brutal option to the arsenal of choices players have at their disposal. Our melee system includes directional input, and we will be adding even more weapon choice to this feature as development continues. All of this adds to the realistic portrayal of World War 1 combat.

Massive Multiplayer Action
100 players at a time face off in 50v50 tactical combat, with an emphasis on methodical bolt action rifle combat and the brutal scale of action soldiers faced on the front lines of the Great War.

Tense & Chilling Trench Warfare
It’s muddy, it’s bloody, it’s gruesome. Tight corners, waves of bayonets on all sides, and limited vision - this game shows off Trench Warfare at its worst. Are you up to the challenge?

Team-focused Gameplay
Co-ordinate and chat with your fellow soldiers-at-arms! Beyond the Wire places an emphasis on team collaboration. Players succeed only when their teammates do.

Cinematic Vistas
Beautifully crafted maps provide a rich playing environment that helps to further emphasize tactical and strategic challenges.

Graphic Imagery
The horrors of war are honestly represented with realistic gore, brutal violence, and vision limiting attacks such as chlorine gas or white phosphorus.

Historically Inspired Weapons
Weapons created with an emphasis on historical accuracy, with minor changes made only when it creates a more engaging and fun gameplay experience. While Beyond The Wire is not a simulation game, we strive for as much accuracy as possible while still ensuring a fun First Person Shooter experience for a wide range of players.

Für 5€ gekauft. Serverbrowser -> Max. Spieleranzahl 10

Spiel ist tod und sollte schnellstmöglich von Steam verschwinden bevor es weitere Käufe gibt.

Dieses Spiel ist nicht im Besitz einer Community. Habe ich so auch noch nicht erlebt.

Meine ersten Erfarungen sammelte ich kurz nach Release.... Es ist eine Early - Early Access Version zu dem Zeitpunkt gewesen. Die Framerate betrug im Regelfall 15 - 20 FPS.

Dadurch fing der PC an zu glühen. Kurzum - den Toaster bei Amazone hatte ich daraufhin storniert, da die Hitze des Rechners hierfür völlig reichte. Eier und Weißbrot schnell auf den gewünschten Zustand zu bekommen, war nun kein Problem mehr. Die betroffene Tapete rollte jedoch leider Gottes in Richtung Himmel da der Klebstoff schmolz. Der Feuerlöscher war beruhigenderweise in Griffweite.

Nach 10 Minuten Spielzeit nahm ich meine Umgebung nunmehr auch in stockenden Bildern wahr. Daraufhin wusste ich, das Problem kann nur unter Auslösung von Druck auf die Kombination von ALT und F4 behebt werden.

Leider war das nicht Ziel und Zweck des Spiels.

Greenlight sei Dank wird hier wirklich alles durchgewunken. Zu sehen war dies bei bereits etlichen anderen Spielen welche ich hier ungern aufzählen möchte. Dafür würde die maximale Anzahl an verwendbaren Zeichen einfach nicht reichen.

Klare Kaufwarnung.

Diese Musik des Spiels ist einfach nur Episch, 100 Punkte dafür. Der Original Soundtrack soll sogar noch besser sein. gespielt habe ich es jetzt als Test Wochenende und kann nur sagen wie Legendär es ist. Es erinnert sehr stark an Tannenberg und Verdun und dem entsprechend Realistischer, obwohl es auch für Leute ist die nicht so gut zielen können, in dem Punkt ist es wieder auch etwas wie bei Enlisted. Die Grafik ist auch direkt Raytraycing sicher. Glanzeffekte und Lichtverhältnisse kommen nicht zu kurz.

Sadly there are some issues atm:

Melee Weapons has sometimes unlimited range (you can get killed even when the weapon didnt touch you)

Teamkillers
This is the worst. I dont even know if they get a penality. Especially with 30sec respawn as Squadlead it is highly annoying and frustrating if you get teamkilled.

Sitautions when i build up sandbags on a map were we are on the defense and i get melee teamkilled
later i got simply shot in the back
also people shoot you even when they stand in front of you for some seconds.
Happened also that i got teamkilled on respawn by people respawning.

And this was on official servers.

if teamkillers dont get a penalities this game will having big problems.

Nur etwas für Enthusiasten ! Aktuell auf die Early Acess Phase bezogene Bewertung.

Relativ Teuer, wenig Content. wenige Spieler, zwar mehrere Server im Angebot aber Samstags mittags quasi Primetime grad mal round abound 60 Leute Online.

Überhaupt nicht Intuitiv, mit anderen Leuten ausprobiert, vergleichbare Ergebnisse und Fazit.

Das gewisse Spielmechaniken mit mir bekannten Spielen ( BF 1918, BF1, oder FH2 allgemein Shooter ala HLL oder PC oder BF2, mein Portfolio an dem ich dieses Spiel messe) nicht übereinstimmen ist perse nicht zu Kritisieren. Offensichtlich wird hier ein andere Ansatz gewählt. Doch wenn das Spiel , noch eine Chance haben möchte irgendwann sich eine Spielerschaft aufzubauen. Meine Meinung, muss das Definitv eingängiger sein und ein relativ niederschwelliegen Einstieg in das Gameplay ermöglichen.
Alles Subjektiv, bin jedenfalls entäuscht und kann das Spiel aktuell nicht weiterempfehlen. Einschränkung wäre, ein Sale Angebot für unter 15 Euro, selbst 20 oder wie in meinem Fall 30 Euro sind nicht gerechtfertigt für den vorhandenen Content.

Pro, Optik, Sound. versuch der einer Authentischen Atmosphäre ist durch aus gelungen.
Negativ. Gameplay, Preis, geringe Community.

Bringt kein Spaß, wieder zurückgegeben. Wenn sich die Programmierer Mühe geben und die Grafik in Griff bekommen würden , wäre ich bereit dem Spiel noch einmal eine Chance zu geben. Squad läuft z.B. auch ohne Probleme..... Vom Trailer her finde ich das Spiel schon Mega

Ich mach's kurz. Wer Fan des Prinzips von Squad ist und die Atmosphäre eines Battlefield 1 erleben will, für denjenigen ist Beyond The Wire genau das richtige. Das spiel läuft in jeder Richtung flüssig, gut und bietet einen intensiven Soundtrack.

Die Community ist jetzt schon gut und hilfsbereit.
und nach meinem ersten Spieltag hat sich auch direkt ein Deutscher Clan gebildet.

This game isnt really fun. its basicly post scriptum in WW1, poorly optimized, and basicly did worse as Post Scriptum or Verdun/Tannenberg.

I know its early access but this game wouldnt be relevant anymore before the developers fixed it.

Ill give it next year a try again...

Preface, I like the game. I really do. I'm not going to waste my time on empty servers, however. Something has got to give, and it's not going to be people caving and dumping 35$ on a dead game. Don't let it end like this. Y'all are gonna let this game die unless there is some mega sale/price adjustment. By that i mean, 10$ and free weekends. Nobody is willing to buy on to something with such little content/player count at the moment. There are plenty of other games (that are free to boot) that people can spend there time playing.

Also, as an aside for Steam in general. There needs to be new rules put in place regarding Early Access Games and dev abandonment. It's getting a little out of hand.

At the moment there are not enough players to really have an enjoyable time in this game. If you are looking for a WW1 FPS experience I would recommend Holdfast or Verdun (or even BF1). Or for a WWII experience I highly recommend Hell Let Loose.

If the devs lowered the price the barrier of entry for this game might be lower and be inviting for more players.

- IS ONLY 2 DOLLARS !! :O

There is ALWAYS at least 1 server with enough players so always playable online, recently available for only 2 dollars, so much more players should be coming in ...

- Graphically this game is similar level of 'Hell Let Loose' and 'Post Scriptum'

-community is very friendly and they do welcome new players :)

----> However the major advantage of this game - is that if you look around with google search youll be able to get a Steam copy for only 2 dollar (!!!) right now so i borderline FREE! (very famous website name is 3 letter, starts with G, im sure youll figure it out lol :D)

- Its a modern game , and is being supported and updated regularly

- Faster and closer re-spawns than 'hell let loose' and 'post scriptum' means more action and less waiting ! major plus if you tought those games are a bit slow

- Graphics and animations are better than 'post scriptum' and on pair with 'hell let loose'

- is one of best ww1 multyplayer games atm , second best being 'tannenberg' ...

- ill update this, if any questions let me know

I must start this review off by saying that I may be a little biased towards any first-person shooter that Offworld Industries is involved with. In a world of triple-A, arcade-y shooters such as the gigantic Battlefield and Call of Duty franchises, it’s great to see that there’s still a solid market for more discriminating shooter fans. From the unparalleled teamwork-based masterpiece, Squad, to its World War 2 counterpart, Post Scriptum, there are a lot of great games out there these days. Beyond The Wire is a very competitive first-person shooter that features massive 100-player battles. The gameplay is very realistic and sports some beautifully detailed, large-scale maps of the Western Front during World War 1. There’s also a hand-to-hand combat system, as well as weapons that the developers have created with an utmost emphasis on historical accuracy. First, you’ll want to choose one of the parties to the conflict, which so far includes Germany, France, and the United States. Then, you’ll jump into the fray and actively fight in order to gradually achieve a high combat rank. One of the things that Beyond The Wire has in common with both Squad and Post Scriptum is that the game is strictly focused on a multiplayer confrontation between players. There is no single-player campaign. As you might have guessed, the battles in Beyond the Wire are played in two teams of 50 digital men. You’ll have to really concentrate in order to get used to these large-scale battles, the outcome of which are always unpredictable. Another fantastic element of playing Beyond The Wire is its wide variety of weapons. You can arm yourself with different types of rare WW1 firearms, most of which are bolt-action, which means slow reload times and taking your time to set up shots. Therefore, you’ll usually want get as close as possible to the enemy to deliver a focused shot. One of the main features of Beyond The Wire that differs from its contemporaries, Squad and Post Scriptum, is its unique close combat system, which allows you to use not only your digital avatar’s fists, but also use shovels, bayonets and other dangerous melee weapons. Tension runs high in Beyond The Wire because if you make one wrong move, you’ll feel the cruelty of close-quarters combat. Melee engagements can cause a lot of damage in a short period of time. Even though the central aspect of Beyond The Wire is massive multiplayer battles, you have to actively communicate with your team for the maximum tactical advantage. Some squads will want concentrate on defense, while others will focus on both setting up ambushes and assaulting enemy strongpoints. It can be a challenge to keep such a large amount of people organized, but when things go well, you’ll be able to defeat the enemy team successfully. Another facet of Beyond The Wire is its historical attention to detail and authenticity. The developers of Beyond The Wire, Redstone Interactive, have gone the extra mile in creating a unique atmosphere and observed the historical ambiance of WW1. As of now, there are only three maps and three factions, so there’s a lot of room for this title to grow. Frankly, I’m looking forward to how this game progresses. Beyond the Wire has some pretty amazing graphics that make its shooter gameplay truly shine. However, you want to have a pretty beefy gaming PC or gaming laptop in order to play it at a decent framerate. So, you may just want to invest in a decent gaming rig.

There's currently 15 people in Europe playing Beyond the wire on a Saturday afternoon. I realize that the peak player time is in the evening but for comparison Battlefield 1 currently has 6300 players (that's just on Steam, there's probably as many on Origin), Verdun has 90, Tannenberg - 30. Still that's not the main reason I'm giving the game a negative review.
I fulfill the minimum requirements, but have so far had 2 crashes on start and 1 during loading times. 4 GB of VRAM is not enough for this game.

A truly great game with perfect gunplay. Beyond the wire, has so much potential. Unfortunately it currently has more cons than pros. If this game gets the attention it deserves and needs, I personally believe it will be much better than squad. I mean, the physics they've created alone beat squad by miles. It feels lots more up-to-date, whereas squad can feel a little clunky from time to time.

Pros:
- Perfect movement physics
- Amazing gun-play
- Lots of different maps to enjoy
- They are updating the game, even despite there being little to no players
- LOTS of potential
- Devs that care about the community

Cons:
- In 2022, the game is dead, with only one server maxing at 40 players at peak times on a lucky day
- No game mode with bots to enjoy, at least until it gains a playerbase. A play-against-bots system would benefit this game hugely, but you'd need to actually put effort in to the bots and make them responsive. This would ensure people are still uping their playtime too!
- The price is WAY too high for a game with too little players, I would consider knocking it down (even just a little)

I hate to do this, but at the current moment I would have to not recommend this game. Simply because you will have nothing to do within the game. There's a training mode in which you can only learn the keybinds etc, there are no offline modes at all. However, supporting the devs for the great game/games they have made does go a long way. I pray that someday soon this game will share the same BIG playerbase that squad has.

Overall it's a good game and I recommend it. You get different weapons, equipment and clothes based on the time and location. So as an example you get complete shitty blue outfit for the french in 1914 which can be easily seen. But in 1918 the french are also shit with cyan outfit this time. Uhh wait let's take the german as an example. So you get no helmets in 1914 as the germans but in 1918 they literally become stormtoops with steelhelmets and light machine guns.

PS: pls add the Ottomans, how dare u not adding the ottomans in WW1 yet.

Brilliant early access title. Constant content being added with improvements being made. All it needs is a playerbase thats willing to hop on it a bit more and you're golden. I've got 160 hours on Hell Let Loose and over 300 on Squad, and this makes a perfect edition to this 'genre' of tactical shooter, while bringing its own unique playstyles to separate it from those two. Definitely pick this up when you get the chance if you enjoy those other titles.

this game in my opinion is a good game i love the realism and how the fighting is more realistic and scenic than most games available right now and ive have seen the constant problem of empty servers but i am optimistic with time and updating this game will get off the ground and i will say anyone who likes world war 1 give this game a try id say it is worth money in the long run because the servers with people in it even a few are a hell of a lot of fun with somewhat organized offensives which you don't see in other games with ww1 and a need to organize to be effective makes this game a thumbs up for me i wont just vote down a game like others because it doesnt have public favor right now i believe with time this will change one player at a time

Even though it's in development, I recommend Beyond The Wire to anyone who thinks they might enjoy it. Fair warning though, servers are usually pretty empty and there's quite a few visual bugs. Keep an eye on the updates and maybe pick it up when it's on sale if you don't wanna wait.

This game is currently in the Humble Choice for December 2021. If you are interested in the game and it's before January 4th, 2022, consider picking up the game as part of the current monthly bundle.

I’m just going to say it, this is a dead game.

Beyond The Wire was fun, I joined a server with 60 players, I was having fun, there was fantastic voice chat, and the action was great. It emphasizes how horrible World War 1 and the trench fighting there was, while still being enjoyable. This is a large combat game with up to fifty players per team.

The problem is those 60 players were EVERYONE playing this game right then. This game is barely breaking 100 max active players each day on Steam, and that’s accounting for the Humble Choice crowd. I have a feeling that this is going to slip back down to twenty to thirty active players before the month is out, and that is sad because it’s a mechanically solid and interesting game. It’s just going to struggle with the player base, and while the game was ok with 60, I think this is going to be rough with fewer players.

Don’t pIck this up. Maybe that makes this a self-fulfilling prophecy. If you get the bundle, give this game a shot just to see what the developers have on offer, but this player base is going to crater again soon, and I’m sad, but I can’t ignore how this story goes every single time.

Perhaps if this title receives some more development, it'll be a worthy purchase, as of now I sort of regret purchasing this.
Mainly because of the poor visual fidelity, by that I don't mean that the game is ugly, it just has serious visibility issues, things that are far away are grainy and hard to make out, even if it's a well-lit silhouette.
Enabling supersampling fixes this, but that should not be the case! Games many times less technologically advanced have managed dealing with issues like this, I don't like being forced to move my face up to the monitor (with minimum FOV set to 90 on a 2560x1440 monitor) to see what i'm shooting at if it's a player only 30m away.
If that technical flaw would be fixed, I'd consider it fun but playable.

Currently some of the mechanics are frustrating, if your position is overrun your weapons are immediately locked only allowing you to flee, this can cause situations where there's ample time to shoot back at an enemy yet you can't because of the zone loss mechanic, some more time or more clear indications when it's about to happen would be good.
Population count is kind of low, generally only 1 server is populated, with about 30 people on avg, though it does seem to dip lower, it's situated in Western Europe so players from other regions be warned that the ping can be not great.
There's a few more little things that could be made better, but I guess that's early access.

I wanna commend the team on the gritty and gorgeous experience, the weapon handling and the sound design. Definitely keep working at it, if you could fix that tiny visibility issue I'd give it a thumbs up and likely put in at least 100 hours or so!
I'll keep the comments open so I can amend this review if that ever gets fixed.

First Game:
Joined the German side
Proceeded to shoot a few Frenchies with my Gewehr 98
Got shot and killed
Whilst trying to attach a bayonet to my weapon I accidentally put my gas mask on
I then accidentally took my bayonet out and then the Death Korps of Krieg took control of my body
I ran through the French trenches, cutting down the first Frenchie at unawares, another decided to brandish his own bayonet, he got cut down
I leave the trench and proceed to cut down another 4 Frenchies without them realising
Notice another two Frenchies, cut down the first one then keep trying to kill the other one for another 5 minutes as he's crawling on the floor, kill him in the end
Hide in a random house for a minute and then decide to leave as no one's coming
Got gunned down immediately

10/10 for the realism

If you read the downvotes they are all becaust people feel the game is lacking players. Isn't that super dumb tho? You like the game and you wish it had more players so you go here and give it a thubs down even though you actually think that it's a great game.

brilliant immersion, straight into action, very well designed maps, lots of close quarters which is always fun. only problem is with the playerbase, one server with about 50 people in on average in evenings, gameplay was still fine, but if your from a region other than europe and north america i would advise you wait until the playerbase increases, otherwise i still had a lot of fun playing.

Just because the game is low on players doesn't mean it deserves a thumbs down. its a great game but the lack of players doesn't help the dev team develop the game to cater to the base, it just becomes a game to the devs. play the game, give feedback, etc. it is continually being worked on and i can appreciate that the devs haven't given up on it.

This game is FANTASTIC. Very challenging, and promotes working together as a team to conduct strategic victories.

MAJOR DOWNSIDE: Servers are usually dead, so spend $35 for a game you wont be able to play to its full capacity because there are 10 people playing on a server.

Developers need to include bots, because without them this game is dead.

I actually had to refund the game as it is only Multiplayer and there is no player base in Australia so technically it was unplayable.

Maybe a free weekend and a $20 price drop would get people on board.

Game 'released' itself too early, too underdeveloped and too overpriced to maintain a dedicated playerbase. Despite this, the game itself is very fun to play. I don't not recommend it because I dislike the game, I just fear they may have botched its release and the playerbase may never return.

Maybe a cheaper initial buy in would help.

This game has tremendous potential, and could possibly become one of the best WW1 games ever made. It's the sweet spot between Battlefield 1 and Verdun: the realistic graphics and sound design of BF1, combined with the gritty and brutal authenticity of Verdun.

Its biggest drawback at the moment, aside from the limited playerbase, is the fact that the game is currently suffering from a bit of an identity crisis. It's made on the same engine as Squad and Post Scriptum, and so a lot of mechanics from those games have carried over on to this one. However, the map design is too linear to properly facilitate Squad/PS gameplay. Squad and PS both have very wide and open maps, which results in teamwork and constant communication being a priority to win. Here, however, the maps are smaller - more in line with what you might see in Red Orchestra or Rising Storm 2. So, while teamplay is still important, I find that most players do not communicate as much. It doesn't feel as critical, since everyone more or less has the same idea of where they're supposed to go. Ultimately, this might alienate players coming in from Squad and PS, since the similarity to those titles is only skin-deep.

I also find the shooting in this game to be infuriating at times due to the amount of weapon sway. I've missed shots in this game that I would have had no business missing in any other game - from literally point-blank, in some cases. The devs have gone on record saying that the amount of weapon sway is intentional, to try to incentivize players to use the melee system. But the melee system, in its current state, just doesn't really feel all that viable, nor is it as in-depth as they would have you believe. I've heard people compare it to Mordhau, but in Mordhau you can swipe and stab from virtually any direction, as well as block from any direction, whereas in this game you can only attack from left or right, and there is only one block animation. There is also a lack of unique melee weapons in the game's current state, so I would love to see that expanded upon.

Overall though, as I said, this game has tremendous potential, and if you're a WW1 buff like me, or just a fan of realistic shooters in general, you owe it to yourself to at least try it out.

Edit: Also, the soundtrack is fantastic.

Overpriced for what its worth. The game doesn't have much to offer aside from more realism than your usual WWI FPS. The Game gets boring at times especially when the sever isn't populated enough. Which brings me to my next point, its hit or miss on server popularity and seems like its player base is a bit scattered. The game play is a bit sluggish compared to games alike such as Squad, Post Scriptum and Hell let loose. You can definitely tell the game is in early access (Not saying is a bad thing, I would recommend waiting until the next couple of updates to see where it takes the game). The game play is boring and bare boned which is not something I expected. Overall not a bad game but it gets boring fairly quickly given certain circumstances and the nature of its game play at the moment.

Game is way too expensive for what it includes so far. It is not bad per say but I can't support such a full retail price on an Early Access game with so few content.

Game is good but because of that price and lack of content had a bad launch, player base is scattered and dismissed. One map in the next update is not going to fix this. The price of the game needs to be lowered.

For an early access game, this game is amazing. I love the Squad feel of it and the WW1 feel of it.

The audio is immersive AF. Just like Squad, the weapon reports are realistic and the artillery makes your sphincter pucker. If anyone has played tarkov, you know volume, direction, and acoustics are super important when it comes to locating enemies.

Graphics are good. A game like this is normally about function first and form somewhere down the line. This game does a great job with graphics. From the explosions to the terrain, it is all well done. The only gripe I have is muzzle flash. It is relatively non-existent. FYI, I have my graphics settings on Epic.

Gunplay/ Meleeplay? is really, really fun! Popping smoke, hearing that whistle, jumping out of the trench, Immediately SWEATING from everywhere, jumping into an enemy trench, and meleeing the ever-living-crap out of the everyone is tons of fun. Most weapons are bolt action so accuracy is more important here. There are a few automatic or semiautomatic primary weapons systems but they dont work as well at distance. They are juicy in a trench or bunker though. If you get a couple of MGs and set up some intersecting fields of fire on a main avenue of approach, get ready for all the endorphins. Melee is awesome too. You run faster with your melee weapon out so you can really break some ankles out there while you are moving in for the kill. I was joking with some friends about going full Mordhau on people in this game. Go melee, receive more endorphins, rinse, repeat.

There are a limited amount of maps but they are great. The level of detail that has gone into them is on par with the Fallujah map in squad. They feel real, lived in, and low crawling has a greater advantage than it does on some Squad maps due to the rubble and foliage strewn about.

Communications are still vital but less so than Squad due to map size. Being out of position can be addressed pretty easily since the maps are a bit smaller. Think Skirmish maps on Squad.

Server counts are a tad small but I haven't had an issue getting into a server to play. I only have 23 hrs on record but again, no issues getting into a game. I will say that I experience some lag issues at times but i don't mind since the game is so good. I play on WiFi so maybe going wired would solve this but idk.

Overall, I'd give this game an 8/10 but it's EA so I'm sure it will only get better. Hell, I HATED (4/10) Squad when I first played it all those years ago. Now it's one of my go-to faves.

This is my first multiplayer game using m+kb, but I am having tons of fun. Gameplay is brutal and challenging, and melee is interesting for a FPS. The community is really great for the most part, and the game really nails WW1. Although I am enjoying it, technical issues and lag really sour the experience sometimes. Frame drops are constant, one map is unplayable for me 90% of the time because of this, and my game will freeze for 5-10 seconds too often. I have a decent laptop but I think the game is just not optimized well enough yet, though I hope the devs address these issues. Overall it was worth the cost, but potential buyers should be wary of technical issues

First off I want to note as I played this game: this is an early access game. It’s not a finished product as the steam store page clearly states: “This Early Access game is not complete and may or may not change further.” Also I’m not a hard-core FPS veteran.

I first started the game and was welcomed by great music. In my opinion it fits the game and WW1 astatic perfectly!

For my first multiplayer game I joined a random squad and spawned on the section leader. I spawned next to a half finished trench in what seemed a dark forest. I didn’t know where I was or what to do. After a short walk through the trench a man appeared on the ridge, his uniform clearly of the enemy, so in panic I shot and missed. He shot, and missed me. As I try to take my next shot I found out that after every shot I have to chamber the next bullet, so in even greater panic I hit the dirt. With a roar my enemy jumped in the trench and charged at me as he stabs me with his bayonet.
All goes black. I’m not dead. I’m bleeding out. Nearest teammate to help me is 43 meters away from me.
Here I am in my comfortable chair in a heated house in a peaceful nation and for a split second this game put me in a WW1 situation.

At the moment my PC hardware is not able to run all graphical settings on max settings. But the graphics do look great. And the sound is great as well, the music being the best.
At first I expected a slow gameplay, but I quickly noticed out this game is relatively fast passed and based on relatively close combat. This works great, making the bayonet and melee combat an effective tool in combat.

There are few servers, but as far as I could see there is always at least 1 full and one half full server (50vs50 and 25vs25).

You can play the game without joining a squad/section. Yet so far I see people in squads actually talk to each other and work together; enhancing the game- and team play.

Again, this is early access. The game does have some bugs. For example I noticed textures not loading for the first 10-20 seconds after joining a game, or body’s turning and spinning in weird ways or on one occasion a player being stuck outside of the map.

Intro

Beyond the wire is a classic FPS in that there is nothing new or especially exciting about its take on the formula. If you have ever played any kind of first-person shooters you will have a good grasp of the controls and mechanics of the game and should be able to jump right into the fun.

Looks

The game looks beautifully detailed and the graphics a crisp. There are some performance issues and at times dramatic fps drops. Some have reported on certain maps and under certain conditions, the drop in frames make the games unplayable. I have personally not experienced these game braking drops in fps but do get drops in performance under similar conditions. But one must bear in mind that the game is in early access.

Feels

This game feels amazing and the immersion is top-notch. When you huddle in a shell crater in the middle of no man's land, just hoping that the next shelling does not hit you and your teammate in the hole next to you is screaming for a medic after being mowed down by an MG. That stuff gets your heart pounding, you grip your mouse just that little bit tighter and ready yourself for the mad dash across the last bit of open ground and into the enemy trench, bayonet at the ready.

Community

The community is not big, but there are a couple of popular servers where one can expect some cueing, but nothing major or with excessive waiting times.
The community as a whole is friendly and a fun bunch, of course, you will find the occasional D-bag, TK’er and mic spammer, but it is not by any means a regular occurrence and mic spammers, you simply just mute.

Conclusion

The game is fun and engaging, with a friendly community and a handful of good active servers, where you can expect battles with 60 to 75+ players regularly. Yes, the game does have some bugs and is not overly well optimized at the moment, so one can expect drops in frame rates and the occasional weird behaviour of certain placeables.
As the game stands at the moment I’d give it a solid 7/10.

No report button either. I am 100% fine with team killing in a game nothing against that in the game its just when people start abusing it like that for an entire hour straight ive never seen it.

TL;DR: Just buy Verdun or wait a year or two for the game to be remotely finished.
It's a SQUAD reskin, and the game is in a highly unfinished state, even for early access. It lacks many basic features and elements that the developers had in squad. There are also a lot of really weird inconveniences, like how grenades and gauze packs aren't refilled at ammo boxes, there are no mag checks, weapon magazine sizes aren't listed, on high FOVs binoculars are super zoomed out for some reason, you cannot use the bipods on LMGs, the rifles have an insane amount of sway (even when prone), holding your breath to steady your shots takes way too long, the rifles take too long to work the bolt, the front sights on rifles get really small on higher FOVs, your character has almost no stamina (I could run further and I'm a fucking asthmatic) etc, etc. The game is also very unfinished, many interior bunker areas are literally just fullbright boxes with no decor or lights. There are lots of bugs as well, like how the bipod on the chauchat has jigglebones, but they're rigged weird so they swing around like they were attached with strings, weird issues when entering artillery cannons where the prompt to exit stays onscreen even when already out of the cannon, really bad texture pop-in (Yes, my settings are on high). The map design is a major gripe too, they took the BF1 approach of not really having many maps with large continuous trench systems, instead it's towns and fields, but the pace of combat doesn't work with those layouts. There's also a lot of stuff that just seems redundant. For example you have a Mordhau style melee system, except overall worse. Just make the swings follow a set pattern, what does that add to the game? The game seems really confused about it's pace of combat as well, it uses a format similar to squad, with long range engagements, but this game is close range only. The accuracy of the guns don't help, they sway like hell, and there's no weapon rest system like RS2. Generally this game needs to have a reason to keep me playing, even in Verdun where I have nothing to really unlock or work towards, seeng that little popup after a kill for 5 points still feels good. I'm not asking for hitmarkers or anything, but a RS2 style killfeed maybe.

I won't recommend this game if you are from South Africa

So after searching for this game for a while. (for 2 weeks I couldn't remember the name of the game) I bought it and downloaded it.

Pros
Graphics
Physics
Sounds
They are all amazing

Cons
Official Servers are ping locked

Now I'm from South Africa and there are no ZA servers so for us to play on EU servers our ping is normally
180-210 and I played for like 5min and then I was kicked. I tried different servers and in all of them, I got kicked for my ping.

Team Mates in Squads kicking you after asking if you have a mic and not giving you time to respond and then just kick you (in my opinion that is a D move) I'm a new player to the game I learn as I play I don't go study the controls like I'm learning for an exam and yes I know these types of games are HARDCORE Comms based.

Overall I found the game very nice the little bit I could play and will probably purchase it when there is either servers for us here in ZA or they remove the ping lock from the EU servers.

I have to admit.. it was really hard to decide if I wanted to give a thumbs up or down.

Pro:
+ the gunplay is really good and hitting someone is really satisfying
+ The game looks good
+ explosions sound awesome
+ fast action, no running sim

Con (why I gave it a thubs down):
- performance is bad (low fps, my system: 5700xt, 3600x, 16gb 3200 mhz ram)
- as expected in early access there are plenty of glitches and bugs
- THE PRICE. (I know you get all the future content, but you don't get your moneys worth right now!)
- the breathing after running is insanely annoying
- a lot of stuff on the map where you get stuck on (e.g. branches on the floor)
- plenty of reused animations from squad

To sum it up: You don't get enough to justify the comparably high price tag. Wait for a sale!

Fired exactly one shot in my first game. (I was a medic)
It was a teamkill.

Best quality WW1 game I have played and recommend this game to any player who likes Post Scriptum, Hell let Loose, Verdun. Sound design is Impeccable, graphics are astonishing and gameplay is fluent and dynamic.

I was an Alpha tester for this game and I fully recommend it.
You did not like Battlefield 1 for having a disproportional amount of automatic weapons or you disliked Verdun for its horrendous gunplay and movement? Then get 'Beyond The Wire' - it's loaded with action (no stalemate trench to trench assault-type of action), it has an interesting melee system and it just feels like WW1. It basically combines every good aspect of those two other WW1 titles.
It might have only 3 maps (Paesschendale, Frise, Argonne Forrest) and 3 factions (Germany, France, USA) currently, but there's more to come - including the British Expeditionary Force. 30€ / 35$ does sound a bit much, but it is worth it in my opinion - and if it is not in your perspective, then wait for a sale.

Edit: After reading a lot of reviews concerning optimisation issues, I wanted to remind that it is an Early Access-title. While it shouldn't be an excuse, it certainly is how development works - optimisation is usually the last step in the development cycle, as adding further content can always break even more stuff.
That said, it is unoptimised, but not unplayable; it's in a better state than Post Scriptum or HLL, when those released. 16GB RAM and 6GB VRAM is probably the recommended gold standard in this type of genre - you will be having a hard time with less, whether it's Squad, HLL, PS or BTW. If you are not sure about the performance on your rig, buy it, test it and refund it provided you don't get the expected performance you're content with.
I have an i7 4790k and a GTX1070 (so nothing too special) and I get around 50-60FPS with occasional FPS dips, so it's rather playable for me personally.

absolutely great, like Post Scriptum but you're not running for 30 mins.

the guns feel really good and satisfying, the melee is fluid and the atmosphere is BF1-like.
