Complete atmosphere rework

This game currently plays like Mongolia “The land of the infinite sun” the atmosphere is plain, repetitive, too bright, and boring and feels like a .Png image.

One of my first suggestions was to darken the atmosphere, make the game more gritty. 2 examples would be Red Orchestra 2 and Call of Duty: World at War. So I suggest we add weather events to every match ranging from:

  • Severe thunderstorms that make Normandy and Berlin a dark, wet, and muddy fight for your lives

  • Snowstorms that make Stalingrad and Moscow close quarters chaos due to reduced visibility. (Moscow already has it but it could be better) (Add a winter version of Stalingrad)

  • Tropical storms that make the pacific a beautiful muddy island of death.

  • Sandstorms that make Tunisia… well Tunisia.

And even in the event these storms aren’t happening we need grittyness added, World at War had the perfect Color to Grit ratio that should be replacated here in Enlisted.

Here are some examples of what Enlisted could be like with these weather events.

Normandy and Berlin:

Stalingrad and Moscow:

The Pacific:

Tunisia:

I fixed it for you so people don’t have to look at the link they can just watch it in the forum.

And I would like if things were less bright and focusing more on gameplay instead of making things picturesque atmosphere

It’s off topic but I would like to remind you something. I hope you haven’t forgotten about Ferdinand tank.

I’m confused why are we talking about tanks now ?

Because I am hoping you would post a suggestion about adding that tank in enlisted some day.

You can play around with tonemap settings in the game editor:

This looks much nicer than some of the settings that we have to actually deal with in game

Is this available on console custom match settings?

No.

not sure what you are specifically asking but,

modders from pc determines those settings:

and players will be able to see it.

theoretically, also on console.

but players cannot decide options.

only the creator

I ment custom match settings ill correct it.

no.

the only options that you can change ( granted that the modder / creator allows it ), is the factions of teams, number of AI, players and type of gamemode ( hardcore, lone fighter, squad )

also, might be old news, but console players cannot host custom made missions if not mistaken.
unless it’s featured in the mods digest

What I would like to see together with coloring and weather changes is more music and shouts at the start of the round…not some generic “jaaaaa, ja wohl! Juhuuuuu!” we currently have -_-‘’. The best game for me in that case would be BF1 …the round start there…or grand ops screens …man.
I already have implemented some bf1 music into this game thanks to kind folks in forum that share their work here - but that’s just few tunes(tho bf1 theme or for the tsar theme hit like a truck in main menu)
More ambiance to maps, more shouts, more war, more grit, more music more mud!

you can try the voice or music sound mods in mod section, its a very good job

ask out modders on forum, there is also tutorial how to replace in game music

I know but those are still mods, would be nice to see it being done by devs to improve vanilla game
