Seems there’s a version of another game just released that has historical equipment, historical units compositions, historical opponents, lets you take over and play any infantryman or tanker in your side, and the bot AI for the rest ins’t stupid.
Just watched a couple of YT vids/adds for it - purchased it and looking forward to getting some time in it - I’ve still got over a year of Premium time in this game, but perhaps I won’t need it…
Since you won’t name it, I’ll assume I’ve already played it and disliked it.
Perhaps I thought it was enough of a description for vets to figure out - I’m old, but not in terms of playing the newer WW2 games.
I had also thought there was a condition of use here that banned promoting other games, but I don’t see it… so - CTA: Gates of Hell - Ostfront
ET: To me it looks like it might be a great successor to Combat Mission from the early 2000’s - which is still going but the “We Go” move system was a bit of a pain.
This is one of the vids I spent some time on:
GoH Ostfront is amazing, though I wouldnt say its a substitute for enlisted, they scratch different itches for me. Its more Men at War, than Heroes and Generals.
Neither of which I have played - as I said for me it looks like Combat Mission - a great game but it never broke into the general gamers’ market, instead remaining a niche wargamer’s favourite
I’ve downloaded and played several other online ww2 games in the past six months, and recently downloaded “Hell let Loose”. I have played it a few times, the graphics are decent, however it takes forever to get into a match and when your in a game it seems like all you do is run around looking for the enemy because I hardly ever encounter them.
The first time I played, I saw a couple different dudes with different color logo’s above their heads, thought they were the enemy so I shot them, only to find out they were my team mates from a different company and I’d killed them with friendly fire 
. A few minutes later, one of those dudes tracked me down and killed me.
Long story short, in no way have I found a substitute for Enlisted.
lol - yes HLL is sometimes referred to as a running simulator.
I’ve got about 200 hrs in it from a couple of years ago - it’s a completely different sort of game to Enlisted of course.
So what, lol? Playing a game is not a relationship.
I have so many more games that I play other than just Enlisted.
Here is a great RTS game, but it’s quite challenging. It has the potential to be transformed into an FPS game, which might make it more popular.
hehe thats not new
But its an amazing game. Ive spent 500 hours in it…very keen on the next DLC which should be the British
Ive modded it heavily for first person models and game play so in a way…it is historical enlisted with more strategy
Truly great game
Enlisted heading rapidly to a bad ww2 game for sure. It’s too bad no one had a freakin’ clue there.
Only a shame that Enlisted is not an RTS game without a tech tree and liberal equipment restrictions most people play in single-player.
i mean…
of course enlisted will never be an RTS.
just like fifa won’t be ever like forza motorsport inspite both being sports game.
CTA GOH it’s an excellent game even though i haven’t played it extensively.
but one can afford to be " historically accurate ", the other cannot.
tbf, GoH does have a tech tree in the campaign.
hell let loose is only a running simulator if you refuse to understand how it works, placing rallies and garries is as much of a mechanic as it is in enlisted
I will have to disagree.
I’m sorry but goh is a succesor to mowas2 with robz mod, thats about what it is, it is by far nowhere near combat mission, not in terms of gameplay, not in terms of historical accuracy, not in terms of anything really, its 2 different games, CM is very much a 'simulator" or at least close to it, CM is more akin to mius front than Goh. Whereas goh is much more arcadey in its standing, its much simpler to play, its sorta sd2, mowas2 stuff
And frankly, how in the hell can you even remotely compare goh - rts, with enlisted - shooter ???
Enlsited should be compared to idk, hell let loose and squad 44, not frigging goh lol.
Although alright, in fairness, you can draw some paralels between goh and enlisted, still, its kinda funny
Easily - see my OP 
I’ve played RTS games where you could select a specific element to play so it became FPS while you did so - eg the one I remember most was a Battle of Britain game where you controlled the targeting of Luftwaffe bombers and fighters, or allocated RAF squadrons to intercept… but hen you could select a specific aircraft to fly as pilot, or as a gunner on the bombers - this was in the early 1990’s.
My problem with Enlisted isn’t that it is FPS - it is that it is an arcade game with little connection to reality other than ostensibly being set in WW2 - and that is getting less and less with every update!
