Give us mechanized infantry and Airborne

I think the game would profit a lot from these two new troops.

mechanized:
By the M16 Halftrack we see such vehicles would work from the physic aspect. And three lvls of this troop would be easy to make for a lot of nations: for example Germany: sdkfz 250 (lvl 1) → sdkfz 251 (lvl 2) → sdkfz 250 D/ or Stummel (lvl 3) they could also work as mobile really point or just to transport infantry.

Aitborn:
calling an AI transport plane (like the bombers) so the plane would came in and the soldiers would jump out at the targeted position on the map.

I would love to see this two units in the game.

Because walking 100m is too much to ask for.

It is not about the transport, just the units would give new and interesting ways to attack or defend a point. And if you can not write something good or productive, you may better write nothing at all :wink:

(Playable) Maps are like 200m big. You dont deploy paratroopers in the battle zone unless you wanna get rid of them both in RL and in Enlisted. Pointless, the units will parachute and realize that they dropped 20m before greyzone spawn and waste tickets.

Let alone that in most campaigns they don’t make any sense.

And don’t get me started about APCs in current game status.

Airborne would be cool in theory but im pretty sure they would all just get mowed down before they hit the ground, unless there is some kind of spawn protection while descending.

Why run 100m from spawn in 5s if you can drive 200m from spawn in 5s.

Because its cooler duh

It isn’t.

It’s why thanks to those new unit classes, we can pester the devs for bigger playing maps… and then give realistic speed to lighter vehicles.

How can I use my motorcycle and feel like Steeve McQueen if my damn cycle doesn’t go faster than 30km/h… (How can I AT rambo tanks…)

Yeah same plebs who failed to deploy national AA in latest update called big calibre now will be forced to give us bigger maps which they didn’t when they released bikes?

Just like they fixed bipods after introducing stamina drain for ADS.

Or like they’ve gave us an indicator we are hiting friendlies with concusion.

Oh wait…

They probably need bigger (or faster) incentives.

Only spamming assaulters as only meta tactics becomes bland after a while. Any monkey can only spam assaulters and succeed.

Bigger maps would be great. And vehicles (with realistic faster than 30kmh speed) also.

Yeah no offense, but airborne wouldn’t be valid, you’d probably get teleported back to the infantry spawn because you went out of bounds. Most maps in this game are ridiculously restricted in where you’re allowed to go and most time players abuse that just sitting in tanks within their area and shooting HE at/into the points especially if it’s a jumbo.

There is difference between what we want and what we get. When I make my Crazy Ideas threads, I state that I know this is what I want not what I get.

What we get is mostly influenced by what we want.

If you’re content with tiny 200m zones with boring assaulters spam, that’s fine, but I’d prefer bigger maps with variety of tactics :person_shrugging:

Should I share the list again of what we want and didn’t get or things we didn’t wanted and still got?

I’m on the forums quite often, so that won’t be necessary.

Being content with what we have neither…

I want more. Saying so is better than not saying anything, or merely complaining on every thread…

After +2 years of repeating the same shit again and again one can get tired.

Well. Lets just cope ähem see again.

Paras still dumb.

Increasing team/map/vehicle count size would be cool at some point.

For now I wouldn’t mind having armored vehicle units just for the heck of it. The more toys for the sandbox the better

Obviously.

Still, what would be the point of the forums other than wish/ask for better things?

Only complain about things we still don’t have? Like bipods? Everyone wants them, everyone already know. But just saying things like “muuuh why asking for new things, I still don’t have bipods, so any new idea is USELESS” … certainly productive…

Heck they (devs) removed the bug thread entirely. Forums are only “useful” for news, and propose new stuff in the HOPE devs take notice…
