So i like many others decided to grind Stalingrad before the merge and i came late to the party so i can no longer buy Stalingrad pass, whatever.
Campaing is pure pain and suffering and honestly one of THE most unfun experiences i had in Enlisted to this date, which is saying something. Alas i am stubborn.
However if there is something that really irks me, its me being forced to suffer through this absolute chore of a “campaing” with borderline useless weapons, no tanks to speak of while being made to unlock “empty” levels that are locked to premium pass. Pass that is no longer sold and thus those levels are no longer obtainable. So not only i am gimped by not having access to all the gear campaing has while most people still playing do along with mostly bot teams, but my progress is also literally half the time wasted into nothingness. Why?
If you have to delete premium pass for Stalingrad from shop, alright. But then also fully remove those levels i can no longer use. Its beyond unfair that i have to grind something thats “hidden” and game poorly pretends its not there. This even beyond Asian gachi scam games honestly and is one of the worst approach towards customers i have ever seen.
Grinding with basically only bolt actions is pure suffering, even with premium acc and premium squad. Why do i have to grind for nothing?
Seriously either bring back the Stalingrad pass or just remove the locked levels from grind, please.
Your opinion. Personal mileage might vary. Stalingrad is one of my favourite campaign: urban battlefield like Berlin, but less auto spam frenzy. Sure it’s possible to spam full auto in Stalingrad, but here, unlike Berlin, bolt action riflemen are still a very viable option. Might be because there’s more “verticallity” in maps, more buildings (literally all of them) you can enter, and ambush ppl from an elevated position. Weaponry is also mid to late instead of late only focused…
All in all, very fun. The campaign that reminds me the most RO1 & RO2 amongst them all.
In short, there’s always favourites, and least liked ones for everyone…
As for full access, I’m gonna miss it, post war thunder conversion. Best value buy they ever released, with all the perks it gave, for ease of grind focusing on gameplay. (I was against locked lvls for f2p players, thought.)
From what you are writing, you have the pass. So obviously your experience differs drastically and you cannot speak on this matter as you simply lack the POV of “F2P” (if you can call that someone who has premium acc and squads lol) player.
Its nice that you like the campaing. I dont, you know why? Because literally every single battle is an uphill battle against no lifers with the pass while i have bolt actions and bot teams. KV sitting in middle of street? I cant do anything about it because i still havent got to the Pz.IV F2 and i am NOT wasting silver on explosive packs that arent doing anything to KV´s either.
“Ah the bolt actions make the game balanced” wannabe argument is also null and void, no offense. Yes you can one shot, yes you arent “harmless”. But you certainly cannot storm the buildings against full avtos and expect to fare well. Most of the time if i am playing against players with actual brain inside their heads, they roll and smoke my team simply due to drastically different firepower. Bolt actions simply arent equal in any way to autos, never were and never will be. Even back in WWI people knew that and trying to snort copium in Enlisted that having OHK bolt action somehow makes you equal to fully equiped group of AVT is just… naive.
And yes i forgot to add that its absolutely amazing way to progress where you are basically permanantly stuck in losing matches (so way less XP) while you also have to grind empty levels. Absolutely stellar design, i am enjoying the game very much!
I only described the maps, the battlefields, which I like. No pass required for this.
It’s the same in all campaigns, be it a king tiger, a tiger on the hill, a t34 in Moscow…
Again, pass means nothing for this as it’s the same without.
(I also main bolt actions riflemen in Stalingrad, just cause I find it funnier than AVT and mkb spam.)
Never said anything of the sort. Only said those can still be used effectively unlike Berlin with which I compared. I never once spoke of balance, neither did I said bolties are better than full auto… only, viable.
As for balance, there’s no balance anywhere, whatever the campaign. You should know this by now. It’s why they bring the war thunder conversion sooner or later.
So, again. I only said I like the campaign maps, which are great, the mid to late equipment, and the xp boost allowing ppl to focus on gameplay.
F2p players can dominate just as easily without the pass, ask @gastanofrizzi
i play stalingrad without the pass and the progressing is ass but i like the maps. sadly i cant do anything fun like using planes or tanks because i have to carry my team and fight alone in the objective with smgs and semi autos against all the enemy sweatlords.
Exactly. I just love iconic historical maps, and mid to late weaponry. It’s just fun.
I never supported the lvl locks devs implemented however. It was unnecessary… The pack was great for those of us who simply lacked time to grind… We never needed “exclusive stuff”.
Try it again! Pz4 main gun since yesterday, can take out dreaded KV much better than before. They can no longer roll feeling “God mode”.
Absolutely right.
Stalingrad is an amazing campaign that was ruined by the paywalling all the fun content except for Kv1 and Ppsh41/Mp717.
The devs believe that by letting the Germans “keep” their Mp717, Mannlicher M93 and the Soviets their Breda 30, its all fixed.
But this is a scam since we were promised that we would keep everything we have bought.
