The main problem is the small number of players. I am absolutely and 100% convinced of this. When there are 10X10 live players in the game, then playing literally becomes very fiery cool, exciting and very interesting. Now imagine that with a large number of players in Enlisted, the matches in the campaigns will be 15X15 or 20X20. And now imagine that every match, absolutely everyone will be 20X20 of live players. It will be a fiery amazing extravaganza in every match! If there is a large player base, then it is easy to create rating matches: beginners against beginners, high-ranked fighters against high-ranked ones. Dear developers-your main task is to increase the Enlisted player base. Then all your other problems will be stimulated, logically indirectly solved by themselves.
P.S. If you ask me a question: If Enlisted is such a good game, then why does it have a small base of the number of players, then I will answer like this: a lot of good games have a small number of players, and a lot of garbage games have a large number of players. I do not agree with the false saying: “If you are so smart, then why are you so poor”
well, going over the fact that this is more of a … ““ramble”” more than a suggestion, what are your proposal then?
i’m more impartial, because to be honest i like less the games where there isn’t a large community where can turn the game into something that it’s not what meant to be ( even though, it kinda started but i digress ).
i think you are looking at this as an issue, hence, if it’s meant to be a suggestion, surely you will have some solutions to propose.
am i right?
More advertising, marketing, special promotions, etc. There are whole science and methods to attract an audience. The main goal of the developers is to increase the number of the player base.
I think there is more to it than just players.
The real issues are more complex and have as much to do with the design of the game mechanics as it is with advertising the milieu within which the game takes place.
I don’t purport to have the numbers but I wager that many players have tried and quit the game given some of the stuff that you can read on the forums day in day out.
The issues cover a wide range of topics - poor AI, no match maker, poor balancing, chronologically or progression biased line ups even if the equipment is more or less historically accurate, etc… and that’s before we get into the nitti gritti of bugs and smaller problems of monetisaion or damage / performance models for equipment.
The devs have to create a mechanism to retain the playerbase as much as being able to expand it. I think the aspect of being able to control AI squads in a combined arms game is a good/solid draw card. They just need to deliver a more compelling reason to “keep grinding/playing”.
The more they veer away from a authenticity to the limit things can be made authentic within a game, the more they water down their differentiation from their competitors.
They know that they are exposed to an attention see saw with Enlisted and many others of this ilk, this is why expansions are delivered with regular monotony, and so without taking retention into consideration, the overall growth will become slower and may yet stall.
Unlike Enlisted, their competitors have, in some cases far more years of operation, and previous low competition windows where they were able to grab significant portions of the playerbase who enjoys WWII content.
Enlisted has to find the right balance to reward player invested time vs available game content that generates the means of progression. In WT this is the Tech Tree and customisation - it is completely separate from the BR match maker and associated maps you fight on.
A similar model is needed for Enlisted in my view.
There are always problems and absolutely all games. Enlisted is already a very good game for me at the current stage and it’s interesting for me to play it (even taking into account the whole number of problems that are being whined about on the forum) . The only, my biggest problem is the small number of players. When there are 10X10 live players in a match-for me it’s always very interesting fiery and amazing gameplay. I can only imagine and dream how happy I will be if there are guaranteed to be 15X15 or 20X20 live players in absolutely every match!
Because enlisted is not a good game leading to new players not sticking with the game and leaving
I have a different opinion. I am quite happy with this game, as it is now. All I need is to have 10X10 live players guaranteed in every match. And I can only dream of guaranteed live 15X15 or 20X20.
The servers cant handle 10x10 what would happen in 20x20?
You have a problem. I played 10X10 without any problems, lags and freezes. These were always fiery interesting matches. Even if there are hypothetical problems with servers, they are all solvable. Let’s not argue. Let everyone stay with their opinion.
Theres a lot of lag.
Just ask our AU and NZ or Asia players
Hell i have lag on EU sometimes
Also a certain someone gets banned for saying “S**** Uk*****” for forever but you keep trying to discuss politics and are yet to be banned.
Cool and normal
Listen. Please stop doing flood and offline. If you have nothing else to say on the topic, don’t say anything.
Listen. Please stop using improper English and make your sentencesunderstandable. If you have nothing else to say on the topic, dont say anything.
Also, the main problem of the game is that the game just sucks. It is just bad
If this is a bad game, why did you register on the forum recently specifically to throw mud at Enlisted?
To make suggestion posts and try to make it better.
What’s wrong with having each match guaranteed to be 10X10 live players or hypothetically 15X15 or 20X20?
You see thats the problem
The game cant guarantee a safe 10x10 player experience, servers cant handle it, the amount of explosion spam that comes from 10x10 causes massive FPS reductions.
If you want to talk 20x20 or 15x15 talk about a new gamemode with bigger maps. Our small ones just wont work
I have absolutely no problems when playing 10x10. And I would absolutely be satisfied with a guaranteed game with 10X10 live players. (15X15, 20X20 as I said-these are my dreams)
You don’t like Enlisted. Why do you play it if you don’t like this game? Or do you not play this game, but only write nonsense on the forum?
