Thank you Enlisted. Myself and the player base have been waiting for a post of what is going on for a long time now and today you delivered. Love all the changes and cant wait to see them implemented in the game keep up the good work enlisted team… The future looks bright.
Yes, asking for any form of Germany buff just immediately gets shot down XD. Germany right now is only kept up by how dedicated/elite their playerbase is compared to the rest. Soviets will forever get buffs, but their WR stats which I highly suspect at this point is the only thing the devs look at at this point, will always remain awful simply because of how just dumb they are, esp on RU server. Playing Soviets on RU faction is guaranteed way to get good at the game.

finally some advance communications before throwing everything away when the omelette is already done
very happy
will we be able to have some skins unlockable through kills or gaining experience? even War Thunder gives us the possibility to unlock some skins for vehicles for free while on enlisted everything is paid
at least some basic monochrome camouflage
and the uniforms? what is the point of changing my soldier from German to Italian if he then continues to wear German uniforms? either the uniform change is added or this modification is completely useless
at this point take the old Italian squads, change their unit name and throw them like folders in the TT and everyone will be happy

Finally all maps all BRs is great. Don’t step back
I disagree. This is going to lead to monstrosities like famous American squads being replaced by Brits. Ahh yes the 101st Screaming Eagles but they’re British
The better solution is to give Britain and Italy every squad and class in the Research Tree. Make new soldiers be “BLANK” and when they’re put in a squad they become the corresponding nationality. I have a British AT squad, I buy an AT soldier, he becomes British.
This is one step in a long road to make Britain and Italy actual viable fleshed out sub factions

Well then you’re even more foolish because this game is rivaling Todd Howard in his nonsense when it comes to bugs and problems.

That’s true in some cases but you’re missing one key point there the reason why no one wants to play for the Soviet or allies is because of how broken this stuff is and the competitive players who play for those factions they want competition not a bot killing simulator.

Will there be anything done regarding the balancing of Weapons/Vehicles?
The Current Status on the Games Balancing right now from my POV:
USA:
BR 5
- BEST CAS AND HE SPAM HANDSDOWN. Nothing can compare to the sheer amount of Rockets and big bombs USA will throw at you.
- Best Fighter Jets
- Superpershing, excellent at killing other tanks, but not so much on HE spamming. 105 Sherman clearly better at that
- Best Select Fire Rifle (T20, high DMG, okay RoF, not insanely high like FG42II)
- 2nd place Assault Rifle (Hyde M1944, up for debate with AS-Model 5) . Decent Fire rate with okay recoil and dispersion
- Trash MG
- Calliope and Rocket Pershing absolutely slamming rockets everywhere. With the playerbase getting so small, the concentration of Whales and normal people who spend money on sales, increase the now very high chance of meeting these 2 tanks in High BR. Failing to acknowledge this is an issue, is also ignorance
BR 2
- 1st/2nd place Bolty (Lee Enfield No.4 Mkl a dispute can be made to Winchester M1895, preference goes down to if u are will to sacrifice 5 extra rounds for .02 extra reload speed with optimized perks)
- Avg SMG (Thomson/Lanchester)
- 1st/2nd place MG (Vicker-Berthier vs MG13, If you think Vicker-Berthier is trash coz of the stats, u dont know what is actually the issue behind it causing to be so high up on my ranking. Main issue is the gun blocking 45% of your screen)
- Best Fighter Plane, purely for fighting planes only (Spitfire)
- Avg tanks
Germany:
BR 5
- The worst Select Fire Rifle of all faction (FG42II, awful dispersion, too high RoF (Not even realistic btw), low DMG (cannot get thru soviets with body amour and vitality))
- STG actually has worse stats than the Hyde and AS Model 5 (has Bayonet which has hidden recoil stats)
- 1st/2nd MG (Disputable with RD-44) (MG42100)
- Best Tank (Good Anti Tank and HE spamming) (Tiger 2 H)
- Avg Jet (Isn’t that good nor is a flying brick unlike Su-9)
- Avg Assaulter Plane (Ju-188 cant even compare to Tu-2S, worse framework strength, any MG can rip apart the JU unlike the Tu-2S, Tu-2S has very good Climb Rate and has controllable 20mm in the front)
- Avg Fighter Plane (Corsair is better than the BF109K4 coz of HVARs and good 20mm that shreds planes)
BR 2
- Worst SMG (MP40 has the worst dispersion to all SMG in its BR, u get so many accidental headshots because u aim for chest lvl. It cant fricken hit a side of a barn, lets not even talk about moving and shooting. Low RoF with “high DMG to compensate” The high dispersion and Low RoF wombo combo makes this SMG absolutely trash. The Beretta M1 or Beretta M38/42 is a much better choice than the MP40.)
- Above Avg Bolty (Pre-war Kar98K, High Rate of Fire, but sights are debatable)
- 1st/2nd place MG (MG13, again is up to debate with the Vicker-Berthier)
- Best AT Weapon (GrB-39 has so much pen, literally kills anything it see, it can even kill IS-2 side on unlike the other trashy AT weapons other factions get/Strumpistol)
- 2nd place Tank (Pz.4 F1, With the Pz3N gone to dominate with the sheer HE spam ability it’s crown doesnt fall to it’s older version, it goes to the T28E, dont believe me? Watch SjF’s recent Low BR tournament, I was dominating teams with it, having 3 MGs, MG boxes that are just empty black holes eating any tank shells that try to hit it)
- 2nd Place Fighter Plane (IAR)
- 2nd Best Assault Plane (Ju 87 D-5)
USSR
BR 5
- 2nd Place Select Fire Rifles (AVT-40/AVS-36, each with it’s better point, AVT for lesser Recoil, AVS for higher DMG. The soviets literally have the liberty of options for Select Fire Rifle)
- Best Assault Rifle (Fedorov Assault Rifle, the recent dmg buff to 13.6 just further made it a pub stomper, it is basically a 25 Round Select Fire Rifle now, it kills enemies with vitality, dont even need to bother about body armor because u have it)
- Best MG (RD-44, debatable with MG42100. The RD-44 buff to reduce its dispersion when walking made it basically it a 100 round Assault Rifle with High RoF, the RD-44 has .3 more dmg than the STG, literally clowning on how trash the STG actually is.)
- Worst Tank (IS-2 can kill all tanks comfortably, but it has absolutely terrible reload compared to all other tanks)
- Worst Jet Plane (The Su-9 is just a flying brick of trash)
- Avg Fighter Plane (I-185(M-82))
- Best Assaulter Plane (Tu-2S, controllable 20mm in the front, usable tailgunners, all slots, unlike the JU-188.)
BR 2
- Best SMG (PPS43/Uragan SMG, High RoF, Fast Reload, Higher than avg bullet Velocity. This SMG is just so good, it makes all other SMGs in its BR look trash, either nerf it, or move it to BR 3, but moving it up a BR will cause it to be out shined by the PPSH-41 Box Mag)
- Best Semi Auto Rifle (Fedorov Rifle 1912, High Dmg going thru vitality, faster reload, lesser dispersion than the armaguerra)
- 1st/2nd Place Bolty (Winchester M1895, high RoF, okay sights)
- Avg MG (Madsen, the buff to the Madsen made it usable in Low BR, and not complete trash compared to other similar BR MG)
- Best Tank (T28E, APHE which destroys tanks in its BR, unlike the USA and British which gets Solid Shot lmao. With the Pz3N gone from BR2, T28E has taken its throne for the king of HE, it has insane splash radius for HE, 3 MGs. Has good speed. The MG Boxes in the front of the tank act as literal impenetrable armour, it is a black hole for any tank shooting shots there.)
- Best Fighter Plane (P-40E-1, Better Payload than IAR, 100Kg>50Kg, 12.7mm browning MG which shreds planes in its BR, insane turn rate.)
- Best Assault Plane (Su-2 (M-82), 6 100Kg bombs, literally can carpet bomb in low BR, can actually dogfight with its 15.28s turn rate, catching most players off-guard that an assault plane can turn that fast, but unfortunately it has 7.62 mm machine guns)
Japan
BR 5
- 3rd Place Select Fire Rifle (Type Hei Automatic, honestly this is just an assault rifle for Japan, 30 round mag and low dmg is the stats for assault rifles)
- Japan has no Asssault Rifles so I cant say anything
- Above avg MGs (Te-4 and Type 100 MG are really decent machine guns, isn’t anything too special nor is it excelling in any area)
- Ho-Ri Production is a menace to USA, it can cut thru all tanks USA can throw at Japan with ease. Ho-Ri has insane HE splash Radius which aids the fact that most Japan Maps are open with no cover. Only downside? Bascially Open Top, new Jets and P-47/AP-4C eats u for breakfast.
BR 2
- I don’t play Japan Low BR so I cant give comments
General Comments
To those who say that each weapon should be unique. I say to you this, why does majority of Assault Rifles and Machine Guns have the same damage despite having completely different stats? And that ARs and MGs are the most used weapons in Enlisted (despite it not being meta), so clearly they should be kept unique no? But clearly that isn’t the case and is just such a lazy answer to solving balancing.
The game balancing needs to pick a side, have completely asymmetrical balancing for the game so that each faction is strong in something and weak in other areas, especially in these 3 categories Assault Rifle, Select Fire Rifles and Machine Guns, which are the most used weapons. Otherwise, make all stats standard for the weapon type (with some minor exceptions for special cases).
Get rid of Body Armour for Soviets hidden Stat (-10% dmg from firearms shot at torso/back). There is literally no reason why this should exist. It causes most of the issues for German weapons balancing when fighting against Soviets. (The lack of dmg, the soviets only requiring 1 or more less shots than the germans to down/kill the enemy). I always laugh when playing against Germans as Soviets whenever Body Armour saves me which happens very often.
Stop looking at how to balance the game from WR stats. Instead actually bother to gather comments and evidence from playerbase (i know this can be a nightmare), ask the competitive side of Enlisted who are more neutral on game balancing (Majority of other games rely on their competitive side to balance weapons, it is just whether you want to make it fun or serious for balancing, or just play the damn game you make.
I know that balancing out different weapons/vehicles will not change the fact that some factions playerbase play better/worse in the different server, but it is at least better that all factions are given equal opportunity, instead of just being ignorant and just purely looking at WR stats on the different nations
To those saying because I come from a Clan and clearly have no say in balancing game. I say to you this, how many games do you clock in a day? Do you always top the scoreboard and are able to carry your games? I am asking for balancing in the game so that more variety of weapons are open for higher levels of play, instead of just playing the meta which is just a tiny pool of weapon, being 9 man Riflemen Squads with Select Fire Rifles, in order to carry the average Enlisted Player not carrying their weight in game. Most Balance changes does not effect Low Level gameplay simply because it isn’t noticed at all. If you still think I don’t deserve a say in this, why not you suggest something, instead of attacking the fact that I am in a clan?

you have not seen RU Forums, it is a half on half whether or not Germany is overpowered and that Soviets are still shit and is a trash faction

the only time the Japanese loses is when the team doesn’t build rally points or push a point with some common sense like marking or killing the tank thats literally killing them over and over expecting it to stop
well that is true US have way more interesting toys while japan is carried by the Type hei auto katanas and power of anime
That’s intentional and that thing is cursed

As long as they have anime or the emperor or possible degeneracy eating at the back of their skull they’ll be fine
