Lone Fighters my beloved

I’m not so sure about it. To me it appears as if it’s almost more populated than that AI Babysit mode called Squads. At least to me it seems as if every game I’m in of the 20 “players” on my team only 5 are actually human and the rest appear like bots.

Humm. Might be on some matches

If LF players keep an elitist attitude, no wonder Squads players will keep calling LF players sweaty tryhards and rejoice when LF gets segregated/removed.

I never actually looked at LF players as tryhards. You know, since there were more bots in the avarage LF game than in squads

I think the game mode Lone Fighters should be somthing like Hell Let Loose and Post Script.

But it doesn’t.

Its lack of too much funny features which promote cooperation between players.

CoD used to be good as well back when they cared about it, so while LF isn’t anything new or unique it was still good fun. I would consider LF a much better CoD than the new ones though with their warcrimes they try to sell as guns, many of which wouldn’t even work IRL because of things like the MG-42 without a butt stock would mean no recoil spring.

It might have something to do with the fact that there’s a sub-group of Squads players who have an even worse elitist attitude, going as far to DEMAND for LF to be completely erased from the game, because it’s eating up THEIR resources and they are entitled to have everything in this game be the way they want it and will go as far as to invalidate anyone’s positive feelings about the LF mode. Meanwhile I don’t think LF hurt anyone by just being there, LF players were never asking for the Squads mode to be removed, the battle pass tasks could’ve been changed and it’d have been fine for everyone but some people are hurt by other people having fun I guess.

So Squads isn’t AI Babysit mode?

That’s not so much an elitist attitiude but a critique on the AI. And you have to admit that with LF you can bypass that problem entirely.

So you don’t like AI because it’s bad. So you don’t play with it. So devs have less data of AI’s performance. So they won’t improve them as much as they could.

Sure, you are only one person. But still.

Those, trolls aside, are probably mostly people who get mad because they like the current formula of Enlisted with bot squads, yet they see hardcore PVP players coming from other games and asking for Enlisted to go all in with LF and ditch AI, “because who wants to shoot bots”.

As others correctly pointed out, Joe Player quits FPS X because whatever, comes to Enlisted, then complains because it is not like X.

What if you like your room, then a roommate comes and demands all the furniture to be changed and the walls to be repainted to fit HIS taste, except eventually he leaves anyway and you’re left with a room you don’t like anymore?

Leaving aside the fact that, due to low population, you are currently more likely to fight bots in custom LF than in normal Squads mode…

Point is, AI squads were /are a (if not the) core element, around which the whole game has been built.

I LOVE the mix of AI and real players in my matches, even if most of the characters I see running around are bots. Bots, imperfect as they can be, are the ones that A) provide plenty of targets for everyone, B) provide plenty of diversions for everyone, C) create that “horde-like” cinematic atmosphere of massive battle.

I find normal squads battles FUN, because even if most “FPS trained” teenagers would probably own me in pure PVP, it doesn’t matter here, even in the worst defeats I still spend more time shooting and killing stuff than being killed.

All of the above makes me feel like Enlisted somehow manages to combine some of the best from single player and multiplayer worlds, providing a chaotic, cinematic WWII gameplay experience like old COD 2 campaign and such, with the extra challenge and the ever-variable element provided by other human players in the match; yet without requiring me to necessarily match any particularly high skill standard in order to be more than food for quicker / better / hardcore meta players.

LF and Squads could still coexist without any real problems though. But I’ll admit I’ve only really seen the ditch AI argument in posts where they were talking exclusively about LF and not saying Squads needs to be removed (I’ve never really seen anyone say that other than to irritate the anti-LF group I mentioned, since Squads is a core part of Enlisted’s identity). Even then I told them they should wait for more players to pick up the game, since removing bots without the appropriate amount of players to fill in the gap would only create problems and not solve any.

I have also made the same argument a few times so I cannot disagree on that one because we know these people will leave for the next yearly release of FPS X that they quit.

It is pandora box, its ok as it is right now. When it was in menu as quick match option, you didn’t know to choose which of the server is full of players or bots.

  • if they implement better equiment for bots and teach them how to trow grenades, it will be funnier to play LF and dont just shoot easy bots that cannot kill you beacause they use bolt-action rifle …

So leave it as it, devs should focus to fix problems, bugs that are still in game more than 1 year ago old.
