Heroes & Generals is a new Free2Play Massive Online FPS with a Strategic Multiplayer Campaign that takes place during World War II.
Players can choose to play as 'Heroes' fighting in the trenches or take a step back and manage battlefield assets, army units and reinforcements as 'Generals'.
The war is fought out continuously across Windows, iOS and Android devices with thousands of players, and the result of every clash and battle alters the scope of
the ongoing war campaign and might affect the final outcome. Every conflict takes place across diverse battlegrounds including contested cities, factories and airfields, each one represented on the strategic map.
[b]The Action Game[/b]
The core of the game is a team-based first-person shooter. The players can engage in combat using a variety of characters, customizable weapons and vehicles such as tanks, fighter planes and even bikes.
[b]The Strategic Layer[/b]
The action-game extends into a strategic top layer that binds the individual FPS sessions into a larger war with thousands of other players.
On the strategic level players are able to command other players or entire groups in Assault Teams into combat. On top of that the strategic players have to manage resources and reinforcements in order to
secure key locations on the battle map.
[b]The Campaign[/b]
Each part of the game can be played separately and are designed to be enjoyable for everyone no matter how deeply they wish to be involved in the war.
Heroes & Generals unique combination of FPS and Strategy gameplay allows players to participate in the grand online war at hugely different levels.
Once-a-week FPS gamers can play alongside hardcore 10-hours-aday master strategists, and all players play their role in the grand war.
[b]Multiple Platforms[/b]

So it's like you mixed the scale of Planetside 2 with WWII. Cool.
Played the beta about a month ago. Weapon upgrades don't last long and are expensive as hell. Also the teams are almost always unbalanced (200 players joining germans and 50 allies as example). It has much potential but still needs much polishing.
I played this for a day and then my character was permanently locked...
I had the beta key and all but i still never played

Yeah teams are more even now, tho the Axis still have the large amount of players.

I'd say more WWII Online (aka Battleground Europe) that doesn't looks like and plays like ass.
Any allied players in here?

It's really cool but I'm having a hard time picking wich upgrades to use. It takes quite a while to rack up credits unless you play daily and for entire hours. I don't see it lasting too long as it can become repetitive. I can't wait for new maps and I hope they'll make a 1942 Berlin style map.
In the alpha bikes used to explode. If I could I'd honestly have a huge knife fight with a bike raid :v:

Actually it looks like this doesn't have near the same scale as WWII Online can do. So far at least, same principle for a few things but not the same scale.
