How to improve the game

There are a couple of problems which need attention. If you change these things (I am not saying my version is the only solution, but please have a look at it).

  1. Planes are OP. You need to introduce some king of a limit of bombing run. I have experienced games when enemy bomber killed 100+ players easily. Apply limited time in the air (plane running out of fuel after x minutes), longer reload times, buff AA guns rotation+firepower (current state they are totally useless). Some of the planes require insane amount of hits to get down.
  2. Grind is boring and too long after a while. Above certain level you need 100,000+ experience to get a squad with 1 “good” soldier with the new weapon/equipment. That’s not enough.
  3. Let us bring more squads in the battle. 4 is not enough. It is limiting the possibility how to play on a map. I know, I know it is all about money and you “force” people to have premium account so they can have 2 more, but I don’t think that is helpful for the game. For premium user find something extra.
  4. Why there is no bullet in the picked up weapons? I know you wanted historical accuracy and soldiers didn’t like using other side’s weapons, but that reason I think it is just silly. This would be the only “unhistorical” in the game.
    5 Bots. Oh my…they are annoying as hell. They are so dumb. Just running around like crazy, sometimes stand front of me when I try to shoot. Give us possibility to control them. Not much, just lay down, hold fire, run to cover. That’s all. Other thing, when I fire to enemy squad the bots immediately locate me and shoot back. That’s again crazy. Even if I am far away, out of site they know where I shoot from and all turn to me. That shouldn’t be like that.

If you could do something about these things this game will be one of the best ever.
Thanks.

1: Agree with planes being OP. one good plane player can change the outcome of an entire match while being impossible to effectively counter since AA is underperforming against planes and if you don’t have a good plane player in your team yourself then you are screwed.

and before someone comes with “but tanks can be very dominant as well”. yes they can. but they can also be countered in 10 different ways unlike planes which have no effective counter right now.

2: Also totally agree. up until level 12 the grind is okay. after that it just gets way to grindy with barely any worthwile rewards to grind for.

3: i am neutral on this. the 4 squad system never bothered me that much.

4: agree.

5: The AI issue is probably never going away. since AI squad members are a core mechanic of the game and every AI used like this sucks. Enlisted is not the only one. play any game with AI Squad mates and you will encounter the same problem. Unless AI technology gets much better in the coming years i would not get your hopes up.

  1. I disagree for two rasons, first it feels incredibly embarrassing to get killed by the own gun. But jokes aside, if you pick a weapon up, there will be certainly some ammo in its magazine, but in order to get the rest you would need to search the corps, take the ammo, put it in your bag, where most likely wont be enough space. Unless you take the whole bag of the enemy, but for that you must loosen its buckles. So I think its obvious that someone would not do something like that in the heat of a battle.

Some parts of my descriptions are probably a bit over the top, but I think you understand the core idea.

Bro every game with ai squad mates? Play brothers in arms

Nah, i think the mechanic of picked up weapons is okay. for now, there’s always bullets in picked up weapons (unless the enemy empty the gun before death). You can actually get max 2 full mag from picked up enemy weapon.

Back in OAT, and their advertisement, the inventory system is a key feature of this game.
But this can make F2P gamers able to experience the full premium weapons. So they removed it.
Dont listen to devs try to make up by “inventory has bugs” “In real life soldiers dont use opposite weapons”
Come on. See what RO1 did. You have to pick up and indepentent ammo bag from the corpse.
Also come on. The inventory system from CRSED from PUBG from ARMA2, which ARMA2 is originate from military simulator. That has the inventory system.
Also, why in WW2 German adopted lots of Soviet weapons. And why Soviet also had lots of German’s weapons.

When you talk about making improvements to the game please specify if you are a premium or a F2P player. This helps to let us know what your motivations are …

I’m guessing from items 2 & 3 that your are primarily F2P player … Kind of sounds like you want all the benefits of premium but F2P ,

You do realize that the game will not improve if no one pays any money ???

Free to Play player here,
1.They are not OP, I guess you are just bad with the AA guns or nobody builds them. I play mostly Berlin and I slap down the IL-2s without any issues. Pro-tip, aim for the cockpit and fuel tanks. The game even gives you a leading indicator. Did you know that you can use a standard rifle to shoot down the airplane?
2. I absolutely agree on this one, it should be reduced.
3. Did you consider putting more men into your squad before making them better? Yes, they will be all troopers at first, but you will have bodies. In Berlin Campaign, it is about how many bodies you can put on the field, squads really don’t matter, plus you can pick up other weapons.
4.Agree
5. More points for you, what are you complaining about? They are there to ease the grind. I think they can stay as they are, but they should be able to run away from the active grenade, not look at it and blow up.

this is because the game only allows you to get an extra mag at most with dropped weapons so what happened is that they were likely running out of ammo though you can always pick up more of the same weapons to increase ammo acount
