good for you but there are others who joined the game after these were added and didnāt get a chance to earn them
Expiring in 60 days.
Other store changes will involve all current campaign bundles of two packs with the discount. For example, Battle of Berlin: Offensive Bundle will be discontinued, and instead only separate AS-44 and STG 45(M) premium squads will be available. As a reminder, in the new matchmaking, you will be able to use them on maps where USSR and Germany are permitted and not just Berlin ones. The same will happen to all existing bundles.
I am not quite understanding this, this seems conflicted with one of the previous dev blogs.
We analyzed your feedback and decided to add an additional rule: matchmaking will try to find the battle location that best matches to the participantās weapons. For example, if the set of all your weapons when playing for the USSR is more consistent with the early period of WWII, then you are more likely to end up in the Moscow winter or on the streets of Stalingrad.
This is a soft rule, so it will apply as long as matching such a session doesnāt hurt your wait time in the queue.
If the possibility of a player being dropped into a certain scenario is dependent on the era of the equipment they have equipped. (e.g. 1941 load-outs can get matchmade for Moscow, Stalingrad and Berlin map, but 1945 load-outs can only be matchmade to Berlin map)
How would packs that are intended for the 1945 era able to be used for battlefields of previous years?
It seems like the merging update will suck.
Everything mixed together⦠and more expensive⦠foreverā¦
P.S.
which bundles are worth it?
I stopped buying everything a few months ago.
Considering these 3:
Battle of Berlin: Offensive Bundle
Battle of Moscow: High Caliber Bundle
Pacific War: Type 97 Chi-Ha Squad
Someone thought same thing as you
the Original Shogun total war, was a whole lot of fun (back in the early 2000ās). There was a lot of great titles within the Total War series (over the years that followed). Rome II was great!
lol still have it
oh and i have more titles, but, umm there cr4cked, on a cd somewhere
I think a lot of people are looking at it the wrong way. I think some, not all, seem to think that everything they got when buying these access passes is useless now, but thatās not entirely the case.What is happening here is pretty stupid, but I think this comes from the overpriced premiums anyway. None of this is new, sadly.
I completely agree. You charged for a product, so you need to deliver. But I think what people may be misunderstanding is that everything youāve earned already is staying or you will be compensated. They already said this in the first progression devblog. So when the campaigns merge, youāll still have all the weapons and gear you unlocked. You just donāt get the XP boost. Hell, Iām a Western Front main but I would get it just to quickly unlock the Eastern front gear if they do compensate players, which again, they 100% should.
So then how would they keep the bonuses? Keep the XP boost for the entire Soviet/German faction? Thatās not exactly fair for US, Britain, Italy, and Japan players. Unless you give them an option to give all campaigns an XP boost which isnāt happening because then thereās no reason to buy anything else in the game. There isnāt many options unfortunately for the path theyāre taking the game in. Maybe the devs just need to suck it up and give the players a 100% boost for those factions
And those who are still firm that we keep campaigns, how else would we do this, keep existing campaigns and add new ones, without splitting the player base and having matches full of bots? Or having repeat gear?
A grievance without a suggestion is just worthless. Itās just empty complaining, thereās nothing to progress from.
Me too. You have to understand what P2W actually means before using that term. Thereās countless games out there that are pay to win. Enlisted isnāt one of them. Itās a pay to progress at an actually reasonable pace game.
And again, grievances without solutions are worthless.
The solution here, of course, is just drop the price of the damn premium squads. Make them worth it, and stop running the business model like WT. Itās not the same game.
No, because this creates separate queues. Custom games will have functionality for historical games, but even then, Enlisted is a fast paced arcade style shooter, not a milsim.
You wonāt get a match with the AS-44 unless you equip weapons that itās designed to counter, like the StG 44. The Federov and the PPSh will still rule the land anyway.
Not necessarily, because you still keep all the weapons and equipment you unlocked. You got to progress through a campaign at lightning speed. If that doesnāt mean anything, you shouldnāt have bought it in the first place.
What will suck is if you already have most of the Soviet/German gear. Which is why they still need to find a way to compensate players. But itās not meaningless.
They did, the premium squads will just be assigned to each faction, given a BR, and then allowed to fight in any map where that faction historically fought.
Because itās a soft rule. You can still bring late war stuff to Moscow, itās just unlikely because the matchmaker will try to place you in a game that is consistent with your load out, premium squads included.
Did you like Shogun II?
I had fun with it for awhile.
I donāt get it? Good thing right! Now we can use them in different maps!
Looking forward to having 3 para squads for US. 1 premium, 1 event and 1 regular when they add it. Curently the premium and event are split over two campaigns.
Well I probably wonāt be around to find out. Enjoy exploiting the para-squads
All I know, is that if I used those paratrooper units⦠the game wouldnāt be fair for the new and intermediate players. Let alone, the matches that have like four A.I. controlled squads on the roster.
Players who have beyond 2,000 matches played, can entirely exploit the paratroopers (simply with the experience and knowledge of the map, and how the game is played).
If I can imagine the things I could doā¦
I can also imagine players doing that and more
Ah yes, the guy who watched Donāt Look Up and thought it was solid advice. Not sure why you think this is an insult, Iām enjoying my squads and donāt give a s*** what you think.
Anyway. As fun as it is screwing with you, youāve had your moment. Iād like to have an actual conversation.
Small correction here: Stalingrad is actually pay to win because the best weapons are locked behind a paywall and there is no counter for f2p players.
F2p player in stalingrad (as me) can unlock OP equipment withaut problem importing them from other campaigns and buying gold order veichle
Dont spread misinformation
Iām not sure what you mean? Do you mean when the campaigns merge? Because in that case youāre right, Iām talking about right now.
No you can do it now
Import mkb from moscow and avt from berlin and you can use it in stalingrad if you have reached lv24 as f2p
Buy any gold order tank and you can use it if you have already both tank squad same for plane as f2p
Again, it wonāt be available in the new progression. If you want pre-max soldiers and weapons, you have to unlock them while the campaigns are still a thing, so before the update.
Weāre removing the packs from store several weeks before the progression update drops (if that is not clear enough), so people that bought them will still have time to take the advantage of getting 4-star squads right after unlocking.
Like the blog says (in the part that you quoted btw), itās a soft rule. So itās possible (getting only late war maps with late war weapons) but not guaranteed.
How is it a separate queue? I will just wait longer for a more authentic match, everyone else can play whatever is fastest.
Again, Iāll 100% quit from a ahistorical match anyway.
Who said I want a milsim? Not having captured PPSh in Tunisia =/= milsim, just a normal WW2 game.
So if I have an STG and the game decides to put me into a match vs AS on Moscow, Iām quitting 100%.
Why not let me wait longer?
Once again, can I set it as hard rule for me personally somewhere in settings?
Whatās the point of fast queue times if I will quit the matches anyway if they are random tutti-frutti?
I can wait 10 minutes for a late war map with late war weapons.
