Is it still in Open Beta or no?
Yes/no
well either that or …in near future we might witness the announcement that game is finished and goes on steam
I realized that the “important post” might possibly be about the official release.
Still lots of bugs, though…
At least it’s a better product than BF2042.
90% of the games nowadays seem to be OBT or even OATs to the point I would call it a release.
Nah. The Steam greed is too much for the snail.
Game like War Thunder spent 4 years in Open Beta, I don’t think Enlisted will be officially release anytime soon.
It is in huge potential for winning or failure. History shows us that history games that stray from history are prone to failure…
they will never release the game on steam because they would then be subject to review bombing and player count numbers being shown, which is something Gaijin doesn’t like with this game, they claim it is active and has plenty of players but custom games is literally empty and the pay to win would get this game review bombed into the ground…not to mention the countless nerfs and stupid design changes that have ruined the game and the terrible matchmaking and progression and pay to win and map design, like allowing vehicles to camp the grey zone and unless you have spent money on extra vehicle slots to pull a plane and bomb them there is no counter…just don’t give this game any money and stop supporting these devs, my entire 200+ server quit this game because of pay to win, nobody likes money changing gameplay balance…even EA games didn’t get away with it
yeah things is the slowest grind on the planet once you dont buy premium account or more squad slots, with f2p player who has no premium booster and is restricted to 4 squad slots only, it is pain in the ass to go trough campaigns, unlike stalingrad, if they can do it there then in other campaign too imo
at least the class 1 squads can have 90% of all the best perks they can possess which is good so you dont necesarilly have to play class 2 squad if you dont want to or class 3 , but this kind of design is also questionable and might be improved somehow
I don’t care if the grind is slow, it is unfair and sucks but that is pay to progress not pay to win, still sucks and turns people away but what KEEPS people away, is there is no way to close that gap thru grinding, which is why the free players have all left, entire servers with thousands of players and clans just gone and sick of the pay to win…if free players could unlock extra slots I wouldn’t care if the grind remained slow because at least I could work up to being on an even playing field…but killing a tank in the grey zone with better position and aim only for them to come back with a plane 30 seconds later and bomb you is absurd considering as a free player I have no options to counter…I can’t pull a plane myself and own them in the air which would be nice and encourage dogfighting, as it is the planes in the game should just be removed entirely since they aren’t balanced or fair for free players at all…either remove vehicles from the game to mitigate the pay to win problem, which sucks cuz I love vehicles, or just allow free players to have more than one vehicle as they progress…very simple solution has been recommmended a hundred times and all they would rather do is ignore their community and testers and kill the game in favor of milking the moron whales dumb enough to farm bots and think they are good at the game
The player count number being show on steam chart only resemble the player count on steam. So you can not know how many people are using the standalone launcher. I think they are not releasing it on steam because they think steam took too much money.
Steam does need to be looked at in the legal sense for abusing monopoly, but that is a seperate issue, this dev team has had a bad history of lying/not being transparent with the game, vehicle stats not being fixed or made truthful, bots being given ranks and filling up games to decieve players into thinking the game is not dying, etc…sadly I have tried to come back to the game a few times and the pay to win and bot farms are just too much…hard to have a good time when 90% of my deaths are to some grey zone camping tank or bomber plane that I can’t counter unless I give up the fun squad I wanted to try out…this game sorely needs a rework of the monetization, prices are bad sure but they way they give extra options and tactics and unfair advantage to paid players is sadly killing the game…hope they fix it but they seem to reward toxic gatekeepers and close down any forums discussing these issues…
In general aspects the game is not very polished so you have to consider that it is in ALPHA
they have actually been in development since 2016 and it was initially crowdfunded so they really have no excuse to have the exact same bugs and problems messing with the game 2 years after release…
