Number 1 - Add BR6 already:
With the addition of jets into the game, it has become apparent that BR5 has become too cluttered with top tier equipment to the point where half of the stuff you get in BR5 becomes outclassed by the time you reach the end of its respective line. Heavy tanks, jets, select fire rifles, and all the other fun toys that define BR5 outclass everything beneath them by a wide margin.
The unintended consequence of this is that it makes a stretch of equipment from the start of BR4 to the start of BR5 obsolete in the queues that theyāre forced into. I think that separating the top tier BR5 equipment into its own BR would open up not only BR4, but also a new BR5. This would be healthier for game balancing as well, since every tier except BR6 would be able to get uptiered or down tiered consistently and that would keep certain BRs (BR3 Russia) from becoming too dominant since they could always end up facing a more prevalent higher BR because that BR doesnāt have to worry about facing jets and select fire rifles just cause they want to use the good semi autos.
This is in my opinion the best way to fix the blossoming issue of BR4 not being played by just about anyone.
Number 2 - Score requirement for vehicles:
HE spam is what I believe to be the most complained about aspect of Enlisted, and I think anyone who tries to find something more complained about has their work cut out for them.
In my time of playing Iāve noticed that it typically isnāt a singular vehicle that is problematic and annoying to deal with in games, itās when enemy teams have a bottomless supply of tanks and aircraft and simply blow up anything and everything they see. With a bad team this becomes an unwinable situation for next to no effort on the part of the enemy spammers.
Ideally, a vehicle would cost a certain amount of score to spawn in, letās say 1000 for a Sherman. At the start of the match you have to play infantry and play it well enough or long enough to get the score you need. Once you spawn in your Sherman, the accumulated score going towards vehicles resets entirely until you spawn in your next infantry squad, meaning that you canāt just sit in your Sherman until you get enough score to spawn in another Sherman, you have to play infantry every time you want to spawn in a vehicle.
This means no more vehicle cycling and more infantry focused matches. Vehicles should not be a crutch for bad players, nor should they be as prevalent as they are. Their role in this game should be as high risk high reward ways for people to support their team, offering something different from infantry but also having its own challenges like AA ground fire, AT guns, and the omnipresent threat of a TNT charge of explosive pack.
I am aware that these would be fairly drastic changes to the game, but I think they would be welcome improvements to the core gameplay.
So fast forward to today three years later, pretty much all my squads are smg, mg or fully auto rifle squads at high levels, no boltie, and my sniper squads are all at level five where they are really assaulter squads with the option to snipe since I carry a secondary weapon.
