Realism mode instead of hardcore?

[Lisqs]

@W4rPig

this game doesn’t even have enough playerbase for the ‘‘hardcore’’ mode.

maybe because it sucks, the mode i am talking about might seem appealing to ppl who play LF for example

[Enlisted_Thunder]

“Hardcore” is more of e-sport stuff. Current lonefighter mode is more towards realism. Not just making it harder for casual players. This game is not designed for e-sport.
But as what I said/suggested/warned years ago, dev failed to make lonefighter FEELS realistic. They are too lazy for only “realism” by simply removing UI and enable FF, not anywhere close to a “realistic WW2 FPS” game.
A more realistic military game involve team coordination. No matter ARMA or HLL, PS, RO/RS, all have classes/roles, and a commander-soldier relations. Enlisted is not encouraging team coordinate, so it fails very hard at its lonefighter mode.

I have player RO2, one of best balanced realistic and gameplay game, for >1000h.

Several severe problems of the new Lonefighter mode

As my expectation, this lonefighter is really a shabby one, mostly a UI off mode. See this for more suggestion: Here, I will only talk about some really important issues: You should keep those game intentional, or “fictional” part visible! Now, even the state of capture point need manually open M to see. This is an fictional design of game. IRL, nothing is like this. In most “semi-realism” FPS still enable you to see this. Unless like ARMA3, it’s really a matter of killing most enemies to …

A quick reaction as a veteran RO2 player of seeing the hardcore lonefighter news (this is a suggestion)

I was shocked to see this game going this way. A bit weird, and a bit familar. As a RO1/2/RS2/Verdun “veteran” and played some hours of DOI, PS and HLL. emmm. This news really excite me. IMO, the RO2 is still the best game of balancing realism and fun But I have to some suggestions to devs: You sure can make kill confirm harder. But for some kind of gameplay, like RO2. You can actually set the killfeed with a delay! Like after 10~30s then you can see your kill info. For friendly fire, pleas…

[WIP] Why this game is way worse than the 10 years old Red Orchestra 2 (except graphic and vehicle)

OG title, after finished: Why this game is way worse than the 10 years old Red Orchestra 2 (except graphic and vehicle) I will later add pictures to make it more adequate.

I had suggested how to improve lonefighter instead of hiding it away.
There’s nothing else I can do.

BTW, there are real simulator “games”. Looks to what industry training softwares. Some comes with “hobby versions”, like ZUSI:

They arent hardcore if you know how it works in real life.

Enlisted is not encouraging team coordinate

The development team they try almost clumsily to encourage this.

For example, players are encouraged to carry maintenance boxes to repair teammates’ vehicles and get more points!

• This kind of behavior is condemned by some CQC as useless, useless everything is useless, only pewpewpew for them may useful, Even these pewpewpew players have even cut down on the game

• Might as well carry 3 grenades or a large ammo pack

The problem of enlisted is it force you to win on this i think we are everyone on the same wawe, there is no room for different team cordination outside the spam on the cap point if we are forced to win

You can even find this updated information, which was released not long ago by Fox and the others

I know this action is a xp farm, but, you need find a tank wo it need repair and is not camping in another map

[tommyZZM]

@gastanofrizzi

repair

Or a transport vehicle, hee hee

[gastanofrizzi]

Please or erika gonna show up, first we need test pure Halftrucks in a deticated campaign for mechanized infantry (like kursk), current map are to cqc focused for use them

As Shiivex say all time, baby steps

[tommyZZM]

I’m discussing with him about how to make transport vehicles and supply vehicles in large maps

@Keofox

The main thing is for your soldier to pack a vehicle repair kit, just like the one tank crews carry with them. Stock up! Not only will it be useful for repairing your vehicles, but it will also help your allied tank crew member occasionally and give you experience for it.

[Enlisted_Thunder]

It only works when you are stacking (playing with friends).
In regular matches, coordinating with team is more likely of waste of time, while losing possible scores. Only basic rallypoint and essential tank marks is a must.
While in other games, coordination and commends is a must. Also there’s class/roles different, forcing you to play as what it supposed to be.

But instead remove all the stuff that makes the game easier, such as: hit markers, markers that show you where exactly shoot in order to get a plane downed, the indicator of where the tank barrel is aiming at while moving, etc.

cool… for 10 players that will be playing this mode…

[tommyZZM]

@robihr

markers

Instead we need more types of markers, or something like War Thunder player names on marker points.

oops, pewpewpew don’t need these

[robihr]

i am not saying that we need to have markers for everything, but markers for detecting planes and markers for hitting planes are must… specially when you consider server desync. and i have seen videos of people killing planes without getting any hit markers and i have seen videos of people not killing plane when hitting markers for half a minute.

if you want realism i suggest enabling friendly fire from any air bombardment, arty or CAS.

[Lisqs]

@robihr

markers for hitting planes

then it could stay as it is now. no big deal
I’m just giving the ideas not the final thing.

[robihr]

before adding new modes and content, dev need to work on basic stuff… like QOL updates and bug fixes. also progress redesign and working MM.

also this kind of thing should be left to modders so they can experiment with stuff, but sadly they dont have permissions to adjust lots of stuff.

[Lisqs]

agreed on everything, giving modders more freedom would help a lot, the community would create a game mode that they would enjoy the most.

I see a lot of big invasion custom games sadly there are few people as well, if there were more players, it would be possible to test how this way of playing holds up in enlisted.

I’m afraid though it will never work out, i guess there are far fewer people playing enlisted than officially stated…
