i played war thunder, star conflict, crossout, crsed and enlisted
all those games have those things in common:
they were made by gaijin
they all have same philosophy, due to which they became repetitive over time
due to all games having “go to battle, kill, die, grind, go to battle, kill, die, grind, …” aspect, they get a lot less exciting over time, until they became just blank and boring cash grabs.
my wish is for enlisted to break this circle of curse by taking a diffrent approach than the rest.
so what shall that be?
instead of sticking to old ways, i suggest we get bigger and longer battles and with that some sort of battle list, which players can join either manually or by asking matchmaker to field them.
matches become locked after certain amount of overpop and the underpopulated side receives either some kind of support or additional rewards for its players.
now the game wont be only about arcadish “go, kill, die” (although that aspect is still preserved, if you prefer playing that way), but also about large-scale strategical decisions, which add greater diversity of what games will look like, even if happening on the same battleground (may be attacked from an entirely diffrent angle, right?)
also: addition of such aspect does not mean that existing mechanics necessarily have to be scrapped
I’d say just give us better tools for custom matches so that we can create bigger and better battles, it would be a super niche after all. Doubt it that devs would take any other path than every other game they did.
custom games like full invasions are awesome already, it’s that they simply lack advanced tools to make it more enjoyable. I think this is far more likely to happen than your suggestion.
Modders already do take this game into next level, give them more tools and room for work!
Enlisted as a proper MMO FPS, really dont fit with WT and PUBG’s (or actually most mobile games) matchmaking system. Match time can varied too much from 5min to 3hour. Yeah, just feeling too arcade.
Custom match? What? No! Before it is made to be an official gamemode, not much player will go there. Even in early days, when lonewolf mode still exist, it still much more popular than current, ATM only 2 lonefighter rooms.
and why you need it to be official game mode at all? currently, there are few lobbies you provided a picture of, where you can have a lot of fun and the amount of them doesn’t make me any difficulties in finding a good game.
So yeah I think it should be moved to custom games and maybe put more emphasis on it so that custom games button isnt hidden somewhere and so people actually notice it and play. Make it more appealing.
and believe me if H accuracy games were moved there a lot of people would play there as well.
