What is also important to remember - competitive mode could bring more players who look for that specific aspect. But will also bring more cheaters. They are already here according to some posts, but will be even more common if ranks and competition will be on stake. Free to play game and competitive mode is a perfect environment for them.
And bad reputation ensuing that will definetely not help in gaining the playerbase.
I disagree fully.
Competitive games are more than enough available…
Enlisted should stay “Objective>Competitive” or “Points>Kills”.
Instead wasting resources for small modes we need bigger modes which cause more chaos, more war. Capturing zones, sabotage enemy supply lines are the thing and not boring nonsense 3vs3 / 5vs5 arena modes, which you can get by many other games.
Well the problem is there are always cheaters. Trough Hardware Trough Obs many tricks nowadays indeed. But that has been since the beginning of shooters already.
Even DOS games had cheat codes implemented.
But look Valorant and Faceit have a very good anticheat engine that have the capability to detect it
More like “become” in this case.
Don’t forget that Enlisted is created by a small, basicaly indie studio in Western Europe, with some help of Gaijin.
That is not the same league as companies that have years of experience in e-sport market.
No. Never.
It just doesn’t work, and never will.
Ranked mode is a terrible idea, because it encourages really bad gameplay and cheating. The game is fine as it is without an unnecessary bragging badge that was achieved by making the game not fun. No thanks permanently.
If you want to play competitive, go play CS:GO. This game is simulating WW2, where victory means living to fight another day. Not some competition.
Planting the bomb mode as a sabotage mission seems fine, but that’s something for a different thread.
I agree that killing bots simply can not be a good Esports or at the very least, Ranked game… But the one thing that DOES have a lot of potential, is the Lone Fighters Gamemode…
If you did a similar thing to what COD did, in that when you switch to Lone Fighters, you have for example: One squad, that is YOUR squad. That’s the squad that you go into battle with, that you can customize, rename, level up, but most importantly, RANK up with… THAT would be awesome.
On a game and specifically, game mode, that has SO much potential for a ranked system with the 24 v 24 idea, it would be a waste to not capitalize on that… Simply, a separate section of the game that has you building and ranking up your own WW2 squad for lone fighters… But of course keep the squads game mode to capture that realistic war simulation… That could really be amazing.
