Anyone know any good WWI games?

IronStorm might appeal, though its a bit different from what you want. Set in an alternate 1964 where the Great War is still going on.

Rise of Flight

i think because a lot more people could relate to WW II and at the time i bet every family had someone in the family that served during the war or had some part in it

plus the tech at that time was limited so maybe was not as appealing

Victoria II is not really good but it is not terrible but that is a WWI simulation

there is a couple mods for existing games

but here is a list of WWI games not a big list as it is a niche market

There's a free to play game called Heroes and Generals on steam http://store.steampowered.com/app/227940/

Aggression: Europe Under Fire

Verdun

Valiant Hearts

You should still try Verdun when it leaves early access. It's a realistic shooter along the lines of Red Orchestra and ARMA, so not a lot of casual FPS players would usually like them

You're really limited safe to say. WWI just doesn't carry the weight among the masses as WWII. I think its because it lacked a true clear-cut enemy and the result of it led to WWII. WWII was more easily made into games b/c, killing Nazis is pretty universal. The Germans of WWI were not that kind of enemy. That said, I'll never forget the Normandy level of MOH: Frontline, and the first COD. I have some of those maps of COD lodged in my memory for life (Carentan FTW).

I'm going to say your friend is wrong about Verdun. It's not perfect by any means as its early access/beta, but I have had a blast since I have started to play it. The community has seen a really nice surge since the sale the other day. I had it for a while before the sale, but only in the last few days did I get into it. It compares to Red Orchestra in certain respects, but in others it doesn't. Hell, I'm not the most adept at MP shooters, but I was killing it in Verdun in my first game. I had 23 kills lol. The best part about it is the authenticity. Running through the trenches, etc. It's just not fully realized yet. There are only a few maps and two game modes at the moment. That said, not once in the 4 or so hours I've put into it have I run into an empty server situation or games with very few people. They've all been packed. Get it now while its cheap! You can find traders with it for just over 1 key if you do it quickly.

I'm going to second Valiant Hearts. It's a beautiful game and it tells a wonderful story. It's very much story driven and the gameplay is minor puzzling/platforming. It's absolutely worthwhile though. I've not finished it yet, but I definitely will shortly. Its not in the categories you're looking for, but its probably the best WWI game ever made at this point.

Neither RTS nor FPS but Ageod just released a new WW1 Game.

Steam and Iron is ok if you don't mind the lack of graphics.

HPS Simulations has a monster wargame called france 14

Matrix has warplane orange, not as good as war in the pacific admiral edition but basically based on a just after WW1 what if scenario http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_Plan_Orange

HELLO ALL,

I would recommend VERDUN on steam for sure : game is still in beta, it is a modest FPS about WW1 which deserves success.
It is trench warfare.
Like Red orchestra 2 we can take objectives and we have different classes of soldiers (leader, sniper, heavy gun....).but there are no tanks.

There's sadly not been a whole lot of WW1 games worth playing. I've heard that AGEOD made a pretty good one simply called World War One, though I've not played it. It's a TBS.
Commander: The Great War also looks pretty good. Not played that one either. It's a TBS though.
As for RTSs, there's always World War 1, a game that uses the Blitzkrieg engine. It's not amazing, but it works.

I love how everyone gives him a lecture on "ww2 is more popular than ww1 and has more gamess" , no shit Sherlocks. I am pretty sure OP and everyones mum is aware of that.

Like coming to a music thread about indie music and everyone would be like "there isn't a lot of good known indie but pop music like 1D is more popular". Jesus

/rant over

Hmm...Verdun,Aggression,Valiant Hearts,NecroVision (WWI mixed with demons and zombies) and the old Red Baron.

I've pretty much have been playing Verdun since I got it 2 days ago non stop. It's certainly not your standard FPS, I keep finding it alot similar to Insurgency for some reason, that said, I'm having way more fun with Verdun than with Insurgency, it is a great game as far as I'm concerned but it still has some hit registration issues. Also the devs are working on alot more new content along with a few new mechanics like bullet drop, it's certainly worth your time.

Barbie Bayonet Bloodbath is very popular in the circles of history connoisseurs, due to it's factual accuracy and - somewhat gory - realism.

Some suggestions: http://www.steamgifts.com/forum/CCUWu/too-few-wwi-games

I decided to go ahead and get Verdun. What the hell, it was only 5 bucks. I'm liking it so far. I'm gonna pick up Valiant Hearts when I get the chance too.

darkest of Days has segments where you play in WW I.

I just remembered two more:
1914: Shells of Fury, though it's not exactly what you were asking for. It is a submarine simulator.
Darkest Hour also deals with WW1, at least in part. I never found the WW1 part very fun, but at least it's there.

There is a mod for BF1942 called BF1918.
I have no idea if it's still alive, due gamespy shutdown(and let's face it, it's a old game) but it used to be fun back then.

Hoping that ''The Trench 1916'' will come out any time soon...
