New Enlisted officers+ event - Big Action - please devs

Suggestions
1

This is a suggestion for devs and helpers at Gaijin (coz we can’t do it without you!), I am sure you are well aware of the ever growing popularity of the Big Action mod. The number of people playing it has grown substantially recently.

Backing your commercials goals:
The Big Action mod allows you to bring vehicles that would not normally be in your line up when high level, it also treats people with premiums differently in how their vehicles work (indirect proper fire, using map and range finder). Gold order vehicles will behave (transform) into a mobile rally or allow you build you own proper artillery piece. (It means people will buy skins for vehicles they wouldn’t normally use ie. Winter tiger skin, buy new gold vehicles and also customizations, decals, some may even buy premiums as they actually work in full scale maps with enhanced munitions etc

Event - there have been talks of showcasing a mod and Big Action is imho by far the best of the bunch on customs. This event might want to ensure only experienced players enter, so officer or above up to Marshal. The importance of engineers and building rallies really is emphasized in this mod. I don’t know if new players would get the game objectives? But it would be up to you to decide if you wanted to limit to players who have ranked to at least an officer rank

Rewards: These could be get 30 Tank kills (5 can spawn on your team, so this is achievable), 20 Plane kills (8 planes in the sky at once, so again available), Build 69 Rallies for Silver (any engineer can build 3 by default), or Custom Tickets, rewards, maybe new vehicle skins or profile pics for top performers like you do for your events on base Enlisted.

You might even want to try out capped XP and allow people to earn XP to grind units, soldiers, that. Would be ideal, but rewards may be sufficient in itself if good enough!

Duration: 1 week would be sufficient I think. The match itself could last as it does now, but the difference is your matchmaking rules would mean less PVE bot time, it would be straight into action!

Big Action not only supports your commercial goals, it uses existing gameplay as a rule, so isn’t too complicated, it makes things like binoculars, or tanks actually act like tanks, can flank, fire and penetrate armour from 800-1000m (so satisfying), it is the new Enlisted endgame, it is what keeps a lot of players still playing and having fun.

@1942786 @James_Grove Hello, please do consider this suggestion, take it to your brownbag and see, Big Action may save Enlisted, it would be nice to get acknowledgement at very least :wink:

@tommyZZM here’s hoping this brings more players and this becomes an alternative way of grinding for mid to end gamers and that you get more support from devs themselves :crossed_fingers:

since i know you are always on that server what the average score people get? i dont have time to sit through 1h30m game so i dont really know what the average score is.

For a normal match it is equivalent to 2-3 games of base. I don’t know what average score is, I get between 140-300 it depends on my role.

But if the event was kill 20 tanks, not score based, or kill 200+ troops, it would be something you could take time to accumulate over several games if you wanted to, even now the match itself remembers you if you leave and you can rejoin, devs could have the mod track your stats relatively easily over a few games (if life came first!) imho :guardsman:

oh what i meant was like the total score like for example i could get 6k in normal match with 90kill something like that
im just gonna assume you could get like 30k+ score at the end of the match

I think if XP was earnt, it would have to be capped (5-10k per hour? That would be up to devs really), if I start a game and it’s against AI I could farm 200+ kills at the start of a game when few players are in initially, it always takes about 15-20 to start filling up.

Previously, I have earnt 100k+ I don’t think that is a good idea, this is more for the mid-end gamers to play full scale war, help with grind but not totally replace base mode.

What you’re saying is good and all but I’d rather the big action mod becomes an official thing instead of public matches because of how broken or debatable some of the maps are.

And when you actually think about it the big action mod is more new player friendly it doesn’t force new players to go right into the meat grinder and gives them an option to communicate with their teammates or use some strategy.

That’s so black ops! I love it! Extended, enduring game is really a big selling point!

I very much agree with this.

The XP issue is a major stumbling block for me when it comes to inviting other players into this mode, or other custom games.

Many new players haven’t grinded through their campaign levels, which leaves us with a dilemma. I think the developers need to fix this as soon as possible.

It would be a good thing for everyone if they could earn XP while playing their favorite modes.

I hope all players will have the opportunity to participate in such a battle~. It is designed for players of all levels.
