I love this game but recently

Maybe it’s the new progression and my concerns, maybe it’s the AT bugs which really used to infuriate me, now I have become indifferent. I think there has been a shift in my mind about Enlisted, the bugs would annoy me, now disappearing grenades, tailgunners, AT etc are just part of the game, but am I no way near playing it with the same passion and immersion as before not even close.

Can’t really put my finger on why, but not aiming to be top on LB, not even bothering to get lots of kills, but playing at a leisurely pace, avg 40-50 kills, maybe a tank kill maybe plane kill.

What I am saying is these bugs and Enlisted events and FOMO, all have kind of burnt me out, I have been playing since CBT mind…

Maybe the next major update won’t be as bad as we think, although Berlin Allies will be against Paras, WP, Impact grenades and have nothing to fight back. Maybe my lack of choice in future (until we gamify the matchmaking), just putting this post there, not sure how others feel, but Enlisted devs have a lot of expectations from their players, which I hope that can meet.

Discuss openly below you thoughts on Enlisted as of now

my biggest issue with enlisted is that you either have fun or try your best for the win, meaning that i do avoid choosing fun to play squads (especially since f2p 3inf squad limit) mostly because i can’t rack up kills with them as much. If the game’s meta would change towards more fun squads it’d be really good for the game.

It’s my personal opinion on why i feel burned out though.

id say the lack of balance in pretty much everything is quite exhausting.
Especiatly games itself that are 19/20 times steamrolls to either side.

I’ve been in a burnout state for at least a few months now. I don’t even care enough to create shitstorms on the forum.

I guess (I’m far from being sure) it’s due to dissattisfaction from the game development. It just turned out to be completelly different from what I thought/wanted. On top of meh overall quality and stupid high prices.

Also often the gameplay is simply not fun. I can’t point out one major thing but multiple small inconviniences add up.
I guess it can be sumarised by what @Lisqs said. You either play for fun or you play good. Hardly ever both.

its just that the game is stale, doing the same thing over and over without variation is not good gameplay.

Most likely they don’t bother fixing thinking that this major update will fix everything. However I think it’ll be quite the opposite. Due to actions of the devs in the past it doesn’t give me any trust about success or successful update/patch for this game.

i’d argue that if they would upgrade custom games and allow more options for the editor, this game would become alot better.

as the game it’s not bad as it used to, but there’s a large room for improvement.

additionally, i’d think a pve would work for alot of people.

but, a gamble and speculation on my part.

can’t really say much about the br either as i have yet to try it.
but we’ll see.

I guess all the vet here are in the same state, whatever darkflow do (event,gamemod,new addition) the game still remain the same there is no significant change who refresh the player experience, is always the same soup with some different ingredient each time

If the new patch separates BR well, It might be a decent breath of fresh air into some lesser used stuff.

But starting to doubt that. In any case, I am pretty well burned till merge… Only logged on for extra customization cards this week.

I fear that after merge it will simply be: high br = no fun

most likely. yeah.

but luckily, mods and custom games ( hoping that they will improve to begin with ) might be a solid substitute for the base matchmaker.

if the br does not satisfy people.

The game has steadily been moving in the wrong direction over time in some areas, and in the right direction in other areas

but some the bad areas are too extreme and game breaking for me, especially this BR merge is a huge bad one

so I will be one of the ones that will likely search for mods/custom games for something, but I have tried some of it in the past and it didn’t captivate me then, so the chances of it captivating me in the future are slim, so that would take a huge effort not just on a mod, but then also having it be good enough and players enough to be worth playing. But losing the Campaigns and those extra goals being removed overnight and losing so much of that extra life that this game still had, is a HUGE LOSS

Most recently the biggest negative for me has been this feeling that whenever I am hitting tanks there is a random number check that has to be passed and makes sometimes guaranteed usual kills do nothing, I thought at first it was lag as that has happened in the past too, but now it doesn’t feel like lag and there is no lag while it happens, and it all is playing smoothly but somehow there are these weird inconsistencies like some ninja change or something…it’s just added a random element to the game that I did not experience prior, so it was noticed

I am dreading this BR only because it’s a forced change on us and we have no choice to continue to enjoy enlisted in current form and continue to search other means to look at easing some the issues

and I will miss the Campaigns too, that is a big deal for me too

I do think exactly the opposite.

Any other BR than top => chance to downtier/uptier => extremely unsatisfying for me, veteran player, cuz I am being in disadvantage purely because of RNG.
I would probably quit literally every match if quitting wasn’t planned to be even more punishable.

Meaning I will probably end up playing only top tier. And after Korean war will come, I quit the game for good. Since I am interested only in WWII stuff.

Feeling the same. We wait for things getting better, but never.

Sometimes I just think maybe the devs never love the game as we players do.

I hate the way that devs treat us and the game. Bugs never fixed completely and instantly. I hate the way they make frequent sales and perfunctory events. When you claim about some bugs that never solved well (e.g. AT bug), they just throw you into the inefficient ‘issue’ system. Also, they don’t know how to be modest. Before you finish the major update, all boasts seem to be funny and invalid.

The most important thing is that the devs have failed to meet our expectations. Look back on the RoadMap 2023, most of us believe the game would become better, but half an year has past, players are losing hope and sadly, the active players fall dramatically. I did nothing in Enlisted after last Marathon Event but log in everday to continue my sign in days.(600d+)

My friends have quitted Enlisted so I have to move to other games, too. If you play the game alone, you always struggle in a tough game. If players cannot feel happy and lose hope on the game, it is the devs’ fault at all.

Fairly possible. Most players get no such high br weapons, and it is evitable that different nations dorminate different ranks. Since there is no exact balance in br, something may happen like what in Tunisa or Moscow or Stalingard. Even if there are enough active players for both sides, high br become intensive and tired. Then players move down to other ranks, and it becomes the former situation.

I think the devs are in such an awkward position for a long time: to improve the game like those famous studios, they don’t have the ability and enough staff; to drop the figure and enhance relationship with the player, they are not willing to do that.
If you are not gifted, then work hard to become better. It seems that they have no such ambition. So they create hyperbole, boast and never keep it real. Just read the dev blogs, they did MANY things but NEVER the things players URGE or CONCERN.

Nearly five months. It is not hard to confirm and reply.
Finding fault in the text, work by word, cannot conceal the essence of the problem.
Instead, the way you tried your best to find error and typing to defend for your MASTER really lmao.

Nah, I am just tired of people pretending roadmap was released on new year.
That’s all to it.

I am solo player, so I cannot relate to your “my friends quit so I don’t win every match, meaning I don’t have fun anymore” problem. So I completely ignored it.
