I have an idea to fix Explosive pack spam problem

Let the level 2 unlock or level 4 unlock have an AT squad so people hopefully learn to use AT instead of just Having an explosive pack everywhere.

And anyone’s free to expand upon my idea .

There’s no point of having AT squad if f2p players has only 3 infantry slots.

Unless its type 97 in Pacific. That thing kills everything

It’s more to address reapers post going on about explosive pack spam If we have more AT people hopefully use that instead of just spamming explosive packs

But… If they lvl the squad, they can have a nice “bazooka Joe 5*” in their assaulters squads, yes? :thinking:

Anyway, it’s irrelevant, progression will change entirely with the conversion.

Yeah, they could have rocket Joe. But one single guy really isn’t very reliable. Especially since bots are still braindead af.

I can bet everytime they would need him, he’ll already dead.

I wouldn’t mind just replace EP with TNT. But TNTs should be more effective if this was a thing.
I think every soldier should be able to destroy or heavily damage tank in some capacity.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with the 3 infantry slots. I like that this game makes us have to choose what we’re gonna bring to the table. It’s like making a deck of cards. I have a few Premiums and will likely get more and I don’t even use them all the time because I view them as just another card in my deck.

And I don’t want them to add a Premium Squad slot

Yeah, me too. Since it just increases difference between paying and f2p player. I don’t think it’s healthy for the game.

But I don’t agree with you that 3 slots are enough. You can always choose in battle to which squad you want to use.
With 3 slots, would you ever put in setup something like mortar squad for example?
I really don’t think so. I think the biggest enjoyment in this game is in variety. There’s no need to restrict f2p players so much.

or how would they pay for this game?

df isn’t making a game for f2p players, from the very start, it already wasn’t. and, the free one is always the most expensive.

Not having enough squad slots is hostile monetization. If you don’t want to be forced to choose what you can’t kill then you have to pay. It’s toxic and in a better world it wouldn’t be a problem.

in Berlin, if I see a tank go straight for it with AT Hans/Ivan or he will get killed before I could harm the tank.

df surely have different defination of this.

That’s the whole point of building our “deck” for battle. We have to choose what roles we want to play. No one can do everything at once.

While I can’t argue that some classes aren’t popular, that all falls onto the individual. There shouldn’t be sentiments that some classes aren’t worth playing because it takes away from the sandbox nature. Otherwise everyone might as well just run around with Assaulters and nothing else and treat the game like CoD

Of coarse there’s nothing wrong with Assaulters, I just mean the mentality of “Run N Gun xD bajillion kills XP noob lol”

Idk, I spend way more money on premium squads and golden order weapons than on slots, lol. Especially since they will compensate me slots.

But maybe there’s some guy who only bought premium account, slots and nothing else. :man_shrugging: But I really dont think so…

Personally I’ve been using only “embeded” AT soldiers in my normandy campaign. Explosive packs are used only in case of a really big emergency.

Imo it’s much funnier to hide in a bush and sideshot a jumbo passing by than throw a mininuke.

what is EP problem? bouncing?

That’s correct, AT launchers can be very enjoyable. Especially if you snipe tank that’s 100 m away.

slots limits would make f2p players feel pressure cuz they are not gonna to be suitable for all the situations, that will force them to make a fresh start of paying

that’s what df means to do

the premium squads, in fact, at least now, just few of them are pay to win and they are also limited by squad size…but the newer squads are also moving on the speedway of imba
