Why Enlisted bacame a boring game?

I agree with that Enlisted is well made game.
But now Enlisted became boring game.

why?
Because of team balance.

The most problem is non equal number of real players.
For example, in Normandy, there a only few real players play germans.
(I played 3 matches game in Normandy, but in every matche wasn’t real players in german team)
So if I paly Normandy campaign, always boring.
For Alies, no strong enemy.
For Axis, no strong teamplayers.

It is very common in other campaigns too.
Do not suggest me play other team or other campaign.
I already playing all campaigns and both teams.

But as a Axis, always loose because there are no real team players.
And always win as a Alies because there are no real enemy players.
(When I play the game, usually number of real players in both teams is 10 vs 4)

Gaiijin must fix this team balance.
I suggest you make a new option to start a match, with only equl number of players on both teams.
I know many players prefer specific factions and campaings.
But if this unbalance problem will continue, Enlisted will be boring SINGLE play game.

Enlisted is my favourite game and its definitely not as fun as it used to be (bots buffed and SMGs nerf) but it will get better… i hope…

i have 3000 hours on the game and have been playing since 2021 and its the weapon variety that i enjoy.

The only problem i have is the Bolt-Action rifles aim assist and aim down sight time
I also have a problem with the PPSh-41 having more recoil than all other SMGs in real life its like the MP-40, it stays on target even past 100 yards/meters

They should release game on Steam to boost playerbase, console players are not enough. But they are too greedy so ofc they won’t give that 30% pay cut to Valve (but they were fine with Sony and Microsoft)

This game had so many chances to become a really good game with healthy playerbase but that ship has sailed.
Now it will just become one of those zombie/undead games.

i think the problem is dev just cant come up with new creative ideas. Like in recent updates it just bring new weapons. I know this means devs are working but in the wrong direction. Yesterday night I was disguessing in chinese community(by the way the form should have a chinese section since many players of this game is from china) and we think the game can introduce a rts control mode like man of war. And allow real person players to control more troops when there are no enough real players.

Agreed.

An rts like heroes and generals would make this game perfect.

They don’t and won’t. If they did we wouldn’t get some broken shit every single major update. Currently hmgs… just look at it and everyting will be clear to you.

The only time they played this game was during that event. And most of us could see how clueless they are.

They add new content and then hastily close the features they made, rather than looking for solutions forward, they just remove a lot of interesting things and possibilities.

The infantry armor, the penetration of the guns, the bombs from the planes, the shelling, the bombers, they’re always adding things and then taking them away.

Every time they add something new, they focus on the players who jump out and cry, trying to please the crybaby players, which makes the game weird. While they claim the game is photorealistic and historical, none of that, just 200m CQC robot farm minimap battles, A lot of players think that’s the state of the game, but we don’t even have a decent PvE mode for bot farms.

That’s why some players claim the game has balance issues at one point, and then claim the game is just robot farms when other players come up with a solution. So they can’t add anything, bombers, transport vehicles, AA vehicles, KV2 and more can’t be added, you will always find a reason to argue against adding these things, everything new is useless or too OP.

And there are many long-standing problems that have not been fixed, such as flying cannons, Yak 9K still has problems and cannot damage tanks like War Thunder

1 step forward, 2 steps back. And keep copying and pasting to repeat the previous things, there is no essential change.

This is one of the reasons why for 2 years the game has been in a state of potential rather than being fun.

There are 2 things I would like to say on this:

  1. There seems to be a fairly big difference between which sides are more popular on PC enabled lobbies, and Console only lobbies. Like how you said that Normandy is dead on the Axis side. That might be the case on PC enabled lobbies, but definitely not on console only lobbies. Went in last night (I play on xbox with Pc crossplay turned off), only half the team was filled as Allies, while the whole team was full on Axis side. This is how majority of the games were. A LOT of the campaigns on Console only are filled with Axis players.

The thing is though, is playing against PC players, console players are at a disadvantage, so many of us turn PC crossplay off.
(We don’t have as many buttons available so some of the buttons we have to sacrifice and not have. In addition, aiming with a mouse lends itself to be more precise, so even with aim assist, the average console player doesn’t match up simply due to control.)

  1. I have suggested this every time team balancing comes into play: an indicator needs to show what campaigns are low on players, and which side is low on players. If you get into a game that has less actual players than the other team, you get +25% rewards/ player difference. This way, more people will be encouraged to play on the teams that are short on players in hopes of getting that bonus. Therefore, more people fill in those gaps. Problem solved.

just say cross platform lobbies since pc players can’t turn off crossplay for some fucking reason :crazy_face:
