is it just me that i only received 2 c96/97 mausers in like, 80 Weapons drops?
legit, i have no p08 lugers, or p38s. but only C96 pistols for my tank crew ( which only 4, not even 5 ) and two snipers.
Same it goes for smoke grenades. i only have two of those on my weaponary and i’m at level 13 of the campaign.
how am i supposed to give a feedbacks on certain weapons if i never had any of these?.
i remember obtaining 1 singular p08 with the flamer squad before the wipe in the last updates. but even than, it was very rare. but after the wipe, i haven’t got any.
I have almost the opposite. Lots of grenades, molotovs, anti tank grenades, and I don’t know how many medikits. But only 1 shotgun, very few SMGs, no mid tier rifles. Like you, only the pistols the initial tanker squad started with. As for troops, I have more snipers then I need. Lots of russian surplus troopers too. No surplus germans. Only enough engineers and assaulters to fill the squad positions. Have more Russian tankers then I can put in tanks, but only enough german tankers to man a tank.
The system seems to be pretty random.
I don’t have as many sniper rifles as I would like, but I’m not bad off for them either.
It’s that I have so many soldiers without medkits now that’s my biggest issue.
This is all about RNG in logistics… perhaps too much RNG.
Separate weapon boxes sure helped a bit, but I must admit, that I´m also in shortage of pistols/smoke grenades/molotovs. (Ever since wipe, I got 1-2 smoke grenades, about 4 molotovs and I think 2 pistols… that´s not much, especially if I consider having same luck on these items in alpha)
Perhaps adding a lootbox that would contain pistols/other utility items would be a good idea?
I myself dislike idea of lootboxes, but I understand that devs need to hook players and “motivate” them to spend more time playing. So while certain amount of RNG should always be a thing in logistics, we need them to be less RNG to ensure that players will eventually get their desired weaponry (and not by a chance of lottery ticket).
Well the seperate weapon boxes do not drop pistols/equipment. Just a flat 0% drop rate, so that’s your issue. Those seperated boxes are traps and should never be used. They don’t even guarantee the “Xth guaranteed drop” and the later variants cost double. Tbh they need to be removed entirely.
That should be done by making the gameplay good. I can run TF2 on a random afternoon and play it for hours, enjoying every bit. I have all items in the game, but the gameplay is fun enough to keep me hooked. Enlisted probably would be able to do so as well, if there weren’t so many issues with the game’s design.
Slower attack speed and more damage. Knives don’t always insta-kill but axes do. Good at breaking destructible objects, which has limited practical applications over taking your buttstock to a window.
I have had instances when sniping that a table got in my way and kept moving me too high in the air, so I moved my sole axe to my sniper squad leader in order to bust down tables.
& it is those game designs that the developers aren’t commenting or reflecting one, it’s really saddens me that I know where the boat will crash if they intend to release it in any form early to mid next year considering the rate at which updates that are targeting issues are coming.
I can confirm that even with opening the weapons & equipment delivery lootboxes I suffering at the front of equipments, mainly infantry grenades. Also while it is good that I’m not getting snipers anymore at one point in time I was way overloaded with them but now (I think I’m lvl 11/12 where you get the BT-7) the issue is becoming SMGs, it’s good to note that I mostly open weapon lootboxes in packs as 10s+ I also tend to open them when I get to receive a new weapon or squad.
I got one or two axes in alpha version, and I think they were far more efficient (unsurprisingly) at destroying doors/fences etc. But I don´t really see the point of it since we can´t literally baricade the door and fences can be jumped over with ease and easily destroy them even with regular guns on so few shots.
