Okay, hear me out: what if it's just a game with some random lore that a writer came up with without any intention of connecting it to our world? Isn't this the most likely explanation? What would be the point of connecting the story to our reality? I'd expect to actually avoiding any connections so that players don't feel any personal connection to either faction in order to randomly balance them out.

You're just seeing patterns, because our brains are wired to do so. Secondly, none of your points is particularly strong; e.g. Caoivish would be an adjective in English based on Caoiva, and English has deep roots in Latin anyway. Basing propaganda on something like honour is expected, even native American tribes did that, AFAIK. Etc.

I can assure you that nothing in Foxhole is random.

All world-building is a mix of influences. Humans are horribly bad at inventing entirely new, unseen concepts. Most western fantasy (a la Tolkien) takes myths and legends and medieval history, puts it in a blender and makes a nice little smoothie out of it.

Foxhole is not inspired by the conflicts of WWI and WWII aside from, obviously, equipment and era (much like you'd see in fantasy with swords and shields and tactics). It is an original setting. Patterns are intentional. There isn't a single thing in the lore that has been put there without consideration for how it relates to the history of the world.

My thought as to why this is hard for people to parse is that it is recent enough in history that we have photographs and video depicting the era, whereas pretty much anything prior, we don't.

But to your point, all fiction is inherently something 'a writer came up with.'

It's very easy to simply add carryable lights. In the earliest versions of the game, we actually had lanterns you could equip.

However, we wanted to make it so that if we added something like this, it affected your visibility and carved away at the 'fog of war' you experience at night. These two things are what make it not-so-trivial and so therefore not the biggest priority. I suspect you might see this feature one day.

We've gone back to the drawing board with the Relic vehicles. There's no timeline on when they'll come back. We're still excited about the concept though.

I wont discount your experiences, but we do take hacking accusations *very* seriously. We have taken several measures to prevent cheaters but we don't doubt they exist. Report any and all cheaters to us on the discord at http://www.discord.gg/foxhole

But try very hard to provide some proof. Remember there are always, *always* more accusers than actual cheaters.

Did anything in your network topology change since you last played successfully? I.e. changed router, add a second router, connecting through a 3g/4g/lte modem etc.

Otherwise a steam restart and a full computer restart can sometimes help with this particular issue.

i do not recall a spesific circumstance. despite having a radio equipped and receiving the tower information when on foot, when i get into the driver seat, game acts as if i do not have a radio equipped. no signals on my homescreen or orange/white circles on the map.

when this happens, if i'm driving through questionable places, i hop off from time to time to check my map, see if any enemy is nearby, then get back into the truck and continue.

does not always happen everytime but it is a common bug.

cheers

Thanks, we'll look into it!

issue: radio does not work in truck bug

this was reported before but wanted to carry on to this thread as well. you often can't see towers with map while driving which is pretty bad since it's truckers who need towers the most.

an alternative fix: let trucks have built in radios (may be optional with some extra cost during construction at vf.)

I'm going to look into this issue, do you have any more information about the circumstances when this happens?

Are you playing on high population servers? What region are you playing from and what are your PC specs and internet connection speed?

Thanks

Hey Sturmgeist, I'm a programmer on Foxhole

This is most likely a false positive. Since trojans attempt to 'hide'/exist within running programs, the way anti-virus software tries to find them is by scanning all running programs for bit 'patterns' of known trojans. However, this method can lead to antivirus incorrectly categorizing a program as a trojan, which is most likely what happened here.

You can try updating Kaspersky (as the developers improve it over time to catch fewer false positives) or ping them on their forums to ask for support. They can anal...
