I fully support most of the announced development goals. Some thoughts on those and on further improvements:
Penalties for deserters don’t seem feasible, there should be like 1 min grace period, there aren’t enough players to not piss off people with very specific map preferences or enticing enough rewards to have people play anything as like “join any team / any mode” - I for one almost never quit but I can see there are plenty of tender hearted sensitive butterflies in the forums
Silver bonus for Join any team/mode should be reasonably high not 10%
Overall silver gain needs to go up by 50% at least, I would say. Some bonus tweaks for EXP would be good also, especially for building rallies or medals. The grind is atrocious, WITH premium time and squads.
Need icons on squads showing if you have hero soldier in it and thus bonus EXP from them
Need squad preset just like soldier / army presets → quickly tweak your favourite squads for different BRs and playstiles
If you insist on moneysink random perk point soldiers at least get a system to just buy and autosell soldiers under perfect perk point rolls
Need an option to have engineers in squad automatically start working on what constructions you lay down
Need an option in the main menu to start game with guns in semi/auto/slow auto/dildo mode by default and not having to do it individually for each soldier, each weapon, every game
Need a way to set up trench lines and automatically have squad bots shovel away
I haven’t seen yet bots using my built MGs I’m either missing something or there needs to be a way to just order a bot on the MG, or order the squad on the MG and have one replace the bot that gets killed right away
Easy way to opt out / mute global chat for tender hearted sensitive butterflies if they get to emotional by words from strangers on the internet. Also don’t censor that. Nword galore for the win.
People need incentives to play most weapons. Need weapon achievements of sorts, like 500 kills with a weapon (as in MP40 itself not submachineguns in general) gets you something substantial like gold order weapon or lootbox or 50k silver, so people are truly incentivised to A) moneysink in all the different non meta weapons B)spend time in game C) have a further goal D)get rewards
Need a way to tell USA/British soldiers apart and to recruit the different minor nationalities individually
Bots pathfinding needs tweaked, like to try and follow the leader better, if I go in through a window they should try that also and not going round and round the building and get killed senselessly
Selecting soldier preset equips him with shit weapon of the type, and not the upgraded one. Should prioritise and equip max star weapons of the type when selecting soldier template.
Have a star or something to see in the squad menu which soldier is maxed out on perk points without having to click on every soldier individually
Need button in research tree to selected weapon’s squad that has the upgrade tree for it
This having to click for rewards in events business is really unfriendly for more casual players or just anyone who isn’t anal about checking the scores and rewards should be given out when tasks are completed and be done with this bs of clicking and bells and whistles. Also ideally not limiting the stages to one per 2 days
Japan needs more maps. Maybe Japan vs Soviet Union scenarios would balance the players/games but I guess you guys have the popularity per faction statistics (Khalkhin Gol / Manchuria '45 high BR)
