Well to be fair I did see 1 sever LF almost full.
so I guess someone actually give a shit about that mode
Best motivation ever
I may have missed something somewhere. Did they remove the standard queue squads games?
If they didnāt, full XP rewards for customs doesnāt affect balance at all, and the custom rules only affect custom battles. Unless the big START button can put you in someone elseās custom lobby, the only thing custom lobbies do to affect the standard queue is pull some players away, which is happening at an inflated rate right now because customs are new.
Custom battles XP is already generally lower than standard, unless youāve got a full player lobby, in which case thereās no problem with full rewards. Why shouldnāt you get full xp for playing Tunisia axis along side the other axis armies, vs soviets and normandy allies? If youāre playing custom lobbies, youāre intentionally playing an inherently unbalanced game (unless fighting bots) and that deserves something. Without those rewards, there wouldnāt be much reason for most players to make use of custom games, which a lot of us called for for a long time, and if no one uses it thereās no point in having it.
That was a shitshow with mixed factions, itās just asking for constant team killing.

remove campaign exp from custom games, but give soldier exp or bp progress to custom games may work
Now I have a doubt if all of the community play custom game with mixed matches, how tf they will balance campaigns?
Only if they reintroduce lone fighters to standard games.
You can easily exploit customs and get mass XP, so there is little reason to play the normal MM, I can send you a screenshot of my 584 kill match, or someone elseās 2000 kill match if you wish. I donāt like how customs are replacing the original gamemode that they spent so much time developing.
They donāt have to. Because team comp in custom lobbies is entirely up to the players making the games, thereās no need for the devs to balance one campaign against the other.
If you join a custom lobby with bad balance, or a relatively balanced one with an army thatās at a disadvantage and have a bad time, thatās not the devsā fault.
That said, Iād like to see some more robust custom rules choices. A lot of people have called for Enlisted to be an infantry only game, and while thatās a bad idea for standard play it could be great for customs. Thereās some imbalance in infantry arms in the campaigns, and more between the campaigns, but not enough that an all-campaign allies/axis or mixed teams match with no vehicles would be an imbalanced mess.
I canāt agree here, either. They added a new way to play, and being a F2P game, there has to be some reward for playing the game, full stop. If custom matches draw in more players, for whatever they want out of them, those players should be able to progress at a reasonable rate, otherwise DF loses out on potential customers.

Of course not everyone will go there right away, though.
Are there any cards you donāt like? Lobby. You donāt want to play the grabs? Lobby. Want to play a mixture of factions or non-historical battles - lobby.
We donāt have full games as it is, if lobbies didnāt have squad mode I think the problem would be gone, but this way lobbies will take away some players
No I intend how they will develop and test new levels if all the ppl are playing custom lobbyes
Iāve seen the crazy screenshots, like 1.6 million xp of a 5000% boost, but that costs money and can be done almost as easily in standard play.
Right now, customs are new, so everyoneās playing them. Thatāll die off as the novelty fades.
Youāre right, standard play usually doesnāt have full lobbies most of the time. So what harm does it do to take players who donāt like the PVP, want to grind a campaign that would suck against players (tunisia axis), or want to play ahistorical battles out of the standard queue? From the devsā perspective, none. Standard lobbies have a few more bots, but the overall playercount levels off. Besides, the players most like to want to play against bots are the ones I see a lot of you complaining about, the ones that donāt play the objective, collecting kills and snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Whatās to lose?

Why? Itās not like there is something worse than regular mode.
You can create what you want, or simply join one of the other game
Why bother going in a random game with random teammates and a random map?
I achieved it completely F2P, Iām not quite sure what you mean. And no, it is much more difficult to pull off against real players.
How did you manged to do 600 kills?
200 or 300 is understandable, but 600
Simply block off the spawns of the bots on your team and farm the enemy bots, preferably defenders since they stay at the point and have infinite lives.
It really works? , I thinked of it but I tough bot will destroy whatever is in their way
Btw what map did you play
Beloe Lake since thatās what other people have been using. I imagine it will get removed from the map choices like D-day did.
Dday was removed? Why?
Let me guess you could shoot on teh point from the beach by the gap in the bunker?
Presumably because it is easy to farm? Iām not sure.
