Constructive criticism on Halloween event

Mess Room

I’ll be honest. It was fun at the start. The thought of having a BP where you can unlock stuff was nice. However after playing to many times to keep grinding this BP it’s not fun anymore and it’s just becoming……… monotonous.

  1. Hard difficulty is not really Hard. Only Hard thing about it is having to stay entertain while you slowly decrease the health bar of the boss, that’s easy to take down.
    A) shoot blue orbs…ok you are good to go
    B) lay prone when Boss makes a noise and you will live.
    C) dodge orbs that he shoots into the sky. Boss dead.

It’s just meh…

Running around to objectives and fighting off zombies IMO is boring. I rather have something like last season or in the Call of Dity zombie modes, where you are defending a building or complex against increasingly hard waves of zombies.

It’s an event mode. Give use everything in the game to play around with in the defense to make it fun. Give us loot boxes on the map that has every gun in the game we can possibly grab. On top of that, throw in a special alien gun or something with some cool pew pew that can turn the tide, but with a low drop rate.

What I’m trying to say is, bring back the wave defense mode. It was much much more exciting to play.

try playing solo with randoms… you will see the difficulty… i had couple of games where we killed the boss but couldnt evacuate cause people split. i had players who were speedrunning and going solo first while ignoring triggered hordes, i had players who were searching whole map for crates after killing boss, just to be overwhelmed by hordes cause idiots were greedy and split around (ffs 47 minute match), i had players who were not fit for standard mode, not to mention hard mode, i had afk players etc.

certainly when you have good team it is easy, but with randoms…

I gave up on the event after 3 days of playing it’s not fun and also rewards are laughably bad if you won’t pay them again for yet another BP. This happens when a dev team gets too greedy.

Try playing with randoms. I just had a match where one idiot kamikaze’d to death on the other side of the map with 2 total kills. Then second idiot went AFK. Then the lazer of the boss clipped through the hill a few times and we got wiped.

So much fun.

I think the next event like this they should just trigger a wave every 1 second for stack players in hard mode and 5 seconds in easy mode, I assume that would be as much fun as playing with randoms.

The only interesting/unique reward is engineer that can use any MG. But his outfit is pathetic and you can’t even change it atm. (Plus amount of points for handling perks is laughable - only 8)

Agree, but make it ww2 themed with ww2 themed rewards.

I would much rather see wave defense of Normandy Landing for example.
I don’t want every big event to be zombie or April fools.

I only play with randoms - as I am one myself. Have lost 1 game in last 3 or 4 days, which was due idiot behaviour. Won a couple with 3 ppl only - 1 AFK.

it is a feature not a bug, game would be laughable easy a drum fed mg
game is made to be played with the weapons you unlock/pay for
as for pew pew ray gun sure if it is no stronger than the smgs you get randomly now, and can only use in the event

I bought the RPD (?? soviet intermediate 100 rd drum LMG) - it’s a lot of fun, but takes a long time to reload, and of course you don’t get it every time - the more weapons I unlock the less I get it :frowning:

For me, the quality of teammates is a serious issue.

Nothing new in Enlisted.

I am critical on DF on a lot of occasions, however I think the event gaming itself was not bad overall. The only complaints would be against some of the team mates who bailed during matches, but that is expected in enlisted. The prizes were ok, I always like getting new guns and squads so I would give DF thumbs up. :fu: Oops, wrong finger… :+1: Sorry DF, just a little joke. :innocent:

Perhaps the solution is to create a “solo” mode next time so we can choose to play alone, or play as a team (like we have now).

I have to say that the event was very fun at begging, but having to replay it multiple times everyday to unlock all of the rewards I already paid for gets boring. Playing progressively became more and more a chore.

upon looking back,

this HW event is not bad. a 6 out of 10.

rewards are… aweful.
i love the concept, and i like the rags over the rifles and what not. but the blood is overdone and very cartoonish.

i love the squads concept, but the only " fine " cosmetics are the soviet and us one.
i also love the fact that they come with actual squads.

imo, more squads are always welcome.

and the themed bp can have it’s benefits.

but what makes it bad, is the bp locking weapons for those who did not researched any over the bp ( biggest issue in my eye ) just the whole ordeal is bad.
like who in the hell thought locking weapons was fine. it’s a frikkin halloween event. and we are supposed to grind that?

having to relay on teammates to get tokens is also bad ( which… even on hard i still see people who does not collects tokens and still runs around with m3/sten guns
and having to relay on teammates in generals for reward is a bad system 9/10 times if you do not play with a team or fellow veterans.

and worse, it only gets worse though the " leadboards " and speedrunners to get their own tokens.
where bad actors can sabotage the whole game.

i can apreciate the teamwork effort, hell, i’m all for teamwork. but it’s kinda detrimental and it has been made into a really weird… thing.

hope next ones will be improved.

agreed.

would be lovely to get some wave defense ( or like the new event, attack / objective based ) pves against actual soldiers.

hell, even imagine ( which i was going to do ) a partisans/commando operations in enemy territory.
avoid being seen as much as possible or blast your way through against AI human soldiers

There only one good thing in this event - progression in development of PvE.
Other is awful.

Yeah its kinda bording tbh. Its fun the first day or so…but then just gets old, plus it does not take long to unlock everything in the pass, so you end up having everything unlocked quick.

Also it was basically a waste of my money since it seems you can not change the goofy outfits that the unique soldiers have on. I would not have purchased the event pass if I would have known the unique soldiers were unable to be customized into normal uniforms.

Maybe they will add customization to them in the future, otherwise I hope we get some kind of marketplace so I could at least sell the squads to someone else that enjoys the goofy appearance of the unique soldiers. If not, I personally would never pay for such an event again.

The event doesn’t seem too bad however I play the event mode once as a solo getting randoms and immediately found it will get monotonous really fast and stopped playing since I honestly don’t want to pay a separate battlepass on top of the one I already paid for, I honestly don’t know how anyone will be able to grind it’s separate battlepass every day including that one objective of playing one hour it sounds like a massive chore

I agree that the event lacked entertainment
But the real problem is the idiots
The harm they cause is more terrible than space demons

Hero soldiers should not tie up squads
The specialization capabilities of these teams are very low and the hero’s ability points are too extreme.
It also cannot provide sufficient automatic firepower in low-level environments (at least in my opinion, it is bad that there are only 2 people)
Their only advantage is that they can place anti-tank soldiers
This is the most rubbish squad I have ever bought (even rubbish than the Soviet Rockets)

Hero soldiers are more suitable to be given individually
Allow players to put them into their favorite team
This will not affect the balance and can increase players’ willingness to use and consume

Instead of spending 900 gold coins and wasting a few hours raising blood pressure in exchange for 2 garbage squads and 3 skin weapons that have no practical benefits.
