The folks over at WWI: Source (one of which, incidentally, is yours truly) have posted their latest monthly update, detailing information on their closed alpha playtesting sessions, introducing a few new team members, and showing off a couple of in-game screenshots, as well as hinting at an open beta release over the horizon.

June has been a great month for the team, with a couple of new members, a ton of playtesting, and generally as much productivity as a mod team could hope for. We’ve progressed into Phase 2 of our internal alpha testing with a small team of playtesters, and had a blast doing so and watching the gameplay continously become more streamlined and fun. Here are a couple of screenshots from our playtesting sessions; the first two are from Ztormi’s map ww_somme and the others are from Wickit’s map ww_passchendaele.

That’s almost all for this month, but before we go, here’s a blog post ivsound has written detailing the creation of one of the WWI: Source machinegun sounds, including a short in-game video. Check it out here.
