Hi. I started playing enlisted, when u could still buy “random Weapons” and “random soldiers” for bronze orders but some time ago that feature got removed and now i tried to bring some of my friends to enlisted and they said it was fun but they simply cant fill their squads…i have been playing enlisted for almost a year now with 4 months pause so 6 months in total and i currently have all my soldiers on 3-5 stars including the weapons on normandy and almost every infanterist, pioneer and radioman has a fg 42 (because i could buy them back in the days when one could do “random weapon” purchases for bronze orders but i only have 50 silver orders for troops…of course i spent some silver orders in the past but currently its impossible for new players to have fun, when they cant fill up their squads because they are lacking silver orders for both, weapons and more importantly soldiers…please bring back the old system, where u could buy stuff for bronze orders because the system right now wont make u gain any new players over a longer period of time
if anything im lacking bronze orders as we speak to upgrade my shits.
360 silver for weapon and 240 silver for soldier, sure i have a lack of them
Silver gain is fine… what isn’t is bronze income for weaponry that DF NEVER adapted like they did with bronze troop orders…
I weirdly find I have much more bronze weapons than soldiers.
Not really sure what the deal is there.
Of course I remember when I had to spend between 250-300 bronze orders to get decent level soldiers (because using the academy was a headache) and thus fill my squads, good times, I’m sure a new player, could raise such amounts of bronze, to be able to buy soldiers.
no, they only need to adjust the bronze orders for weapons
you dont need newest weapon for every soldier, nor do you need highest tier soldier you can get in your squad. considering rng stats of your soldiers, some lower tier soldiers can have better stats than higher tier soldiers. also it is more cost effective to rank up good t1 soldier to rank 5 than t3 soldier. put old soldiers from squads you dont use to new squads you are grinding. you will get buffed squads with perks when you are grinding new squads.
more than anything you need more bronze orders to upgrade all the weapons to be more accurate/do more damage. ffs later vehicles cost over 100 bronze orders to rank them up, not to mention late game rifles that go by soldier…
Just create a new account and try it out yourself…all of my friends that are new to enlisted lack silver orders and cant fill their squads
i have 600+ bronze orders…and all of my freinds being new to the gamne have like 10 times more bronze orders than silver orders too…but idk maybe that will change after some weeks
my account is some 3-4 months old and i mainly play one campaign (with little progress on 2 others). mostly i have problems with bronze orders and not with silver ones.
i think your problem is that you leave old squads full of soldiers and then recruit new soldiers with silver orders. everyone would have problem with silver orders if they did that. when switching to a new squad you need to put all the “extra” soldiers from old squad in reserve so that only minimum number of soldiers are left in old squad. and then populate new squads with reserve soldiers.
i actually have like 1 million reserve soldiers xD i have no problem at but i was talking about my friends who are like lvl 5 or 6…but if you really only lack bronze orders, thats good to know because then it will prpbably chanche for my friends too over time…however i still have 819 bronze orders for soldiers (i only bought soldiers by the “random purchase” system that got removed a while ago and only like 20 or 30 soldiers with the silver orders (i have only have 52 of them for soldiers…and bronze weapon orders i have 227 but i can already see them running out soon when im going to make every weapon i got to 5 and 6 stars. I still think it should be an option to purchase random soldiers and weapons like it was before…like i mean whats wrong about adding additional purchase options… oh and btw have fun getting ALL YOUR WEAPONS WITH SILVER ORDERS… i mean all the good weapons cost 2-3 silver orders…
when u have 5 MG men in total, split in different squads and all of them should have a mg42 for example, it would be: 5 x 3 = 15 silver orders for MGs + the big ammo bag: 5 x 2 = 10 → 25 silver orders only for the 5 MG men. then u have like 5 MP men, each gets big ammo bag and mp 43/1 : 5 x 3 + 5 x 2 = 25 silver orders for the MP guys and each of your Infanterists gets a Kar98k with grenade launcher and a fg 42 : 10 x 3 + 10 x 3 = 60 silver orders only for the weapons of the infanterists… of course no high rank player has 10 infanterists but panzerfausts, sniperrifles, grenades, Pistols etc. will make about 50 silverorders extra
so in total about: 50 + 60 + 25 + 25 = 160 silverorders only to get all the high lvl weapons…but now u dont do this process one time but a lot of times troughout the entire campaign, unlocking new weapons and new soldiers all the time therefore in total, u would need about 300-500 silverorders in total to get all the weapons and not having to use the mannlicher or kar 98k on every infanterist, when u are lvl 20
sry i just read my comment and it sounded quite mean xD. Thx for your Help and ill look how it will go on in the future but pls read my comment and go trough the math i did there
system was made so you would use old weapons also. you dont need to equip all the newest guns just cause you unlocked them. sometimes fully upgraded older rifle is better than non upgrade new gun. on almost fully grinded axis normandy half my rifleman still have fully upgraded gewehr 43, while few others have fg42. none of my assaulters have mp43 even though i unlocked it (and cause i need to grind assaulter 3).
for me getting all end game weapons for all my soldiers is more of a goal after i finish grinding campaign.
idk when that time was when u needed 250-300 bronze orders xD also u can just get like 50-100 soldiers → academy → good lvl soldiers
