Lone fighters

Personally I would increase the number of players to 32 per team.
At this time the number of players per team is not enough to have a fast paced game, the pace of Squads game play is way faster and more action packed.

Because lone fighters has and will always suck. Most people dont like playing it so it fills with bots.

Simple as.

Best way would be to remove it and focus on the unique core of the game: Squads and the AI. Maybe a new version of squads that’s Enduring Confrontation style would be nice.

Lone fighters should be deleted.It Fs up matchmaking and takes away dev time /resource and its a horrible aftertought gamemode.
Max it should be an event like Enduring Conf in WT not an another gamemode like RB or AB.

Lone Fighters is filling with bots since the update that messed the interface up and drove everyone away. It was perfect before.

Squads is absurdly annoying in comparison with those dumb bots around. If I wanted to shoot AI, I’d play a singleplayer game.

LF was almost filled with bots before that anyways

I love lone fighters just as it is. I think increasing the amount of players would not be wise. Part of what makes it challenging is FINDING the enemy and taking objectives with limited resources/men.

It doesn’t. There’s barely any overlap with squads. Someone who plays solo mode is not likely to play squads to begin with. Try to force these players into squads and they’ll just leave. I’m not even sure if lone fighters mode has fewer actual players, even after being made much more niche. It’s just a lot easier to spot bots there.

As for resources being taken away from squads, I couldn’t care less because that game mode has no gameplay worth. It only offers pointless grind to unlock things you’ll never enjoy using because gameplay sucks.

Lol People who play Lone fighters are the same kind of people who play Sim in WT.
If u want a sim play a sim not an arcade game with a S**ty “Sim” mode.
If u wanna play w/o bots play any of the other 100.000 WW2 shooter not the AI squad game with a janky “No AI” (filled with bots btw) game mode

Try to force these players into squads and they’ll just leave.
All 3 of them?

Says the guy playing the afterthought /dead game mode on life support

If u want arcade play an old cod if u want realisim play P.S.(my fav)
This game doesnt need this game mode

Less bombs, more focus on understanding who/where is the enemy.
Also I don’t understand why people wish to delete a mode they don’t play.

People play lone fighters because it has more to offer than just smoke and mirrors. There is no scale in squads anyway. The only thing squads mode has is more efficient grind and a whole lot of illusions. Squads themselves are little more than cardboard decorations, obvious fakes that do nothing and only detract from the game.

It’s not that I came here for the opposite of what they advertised, it’s more like developers utterly failed in execution of what they advertised. Lone fighters is a terrible hastily put together mess, but at least it has some grains of gameplay worth coming back for. The same is not true about squads.

Thats the point of a “Historical” WW2 Shooter
If I want a competitive shooter ill play CS:GO

The point of this game is to re live/ immerse yourself in Normandy/Berlin etc on a large scale battlefield not to get amazing K/D and having 5 or 6 guys Attacking/ defending the beaches of normandy is just weird/stupid

but at least it has some grains of gameplay worth coming back for

LOL

Also I don’t understand why people wish to delete a mode they don’t play.

It Fs up matchmaking(doubles the queues) and takes away dev time /resource for a horrible aftertought gamemode.

I don’t understand the matchmaking part. For you it’s horrible, others are bothered by different stuff. I think kamikaze drone bombing, hip-firing with machine gun while jumping off from stairs or floating out from 10 meters and being able to fire instantly on touchdown is much more horrible than this bot-filled game mode. With some lobby zone to wait for the “critical mass” of real players there would not be much problem with the game mode for me.

If you’re one of them then acknowledged, otherwise 2 LF-fixes out of around 40 is… Not a real issue.

It splits the matchmaking/playerbase
We now have 3 campaigns (soon 5 tunisia/stalingrad) * 2 sides * 2 gamemodes

So the german player base in the future is splitted in 5 campagni :thinking: i think the dev need to rethink this separate campagni system now is ok in the future probably become only a a problem a “big problem”

I would speculate that folks want people to get corralled into the squad mode instead. Perhaps they fear lone fighter might become the prevalent gamer choice.

I dont think that is the case because the mode is much harder than squad. The rewards are also less and it relies more on skill and less on “spam”, so to speak.

The suggestion that LF is somehow “easy mode” or “arcade mode” for players is ludicrous IMO. Squad mode fits that description better. It is obviously more akin to an arcade mode than LF would be, and LF is closer to what most games offer, the enemy you face is directly controlled by players.

LF does not provide easy kills, either by spam or foolish AI, and it also seems cheating is less an issue. Seems to me the fix is not to delete LF…it is to fix Squads.

I did not understand if you insult those who want a semi-realistic game tending to arcade, or try to pass lone figther as gold since it is a shit,
yes “squad” needs to be fixed but because it is the “main” game mode
ps
there are more bots, team killers, and macro users on lone figther than squad

Let’s get a few facts straight, because so many people are missing the point here.

1- LONE FIGHTERS (pre-hardcore, new UI settings suck) is a mode for people who like to play the game more tactically. It’s much more challenging than SQUADS and it does not have the annoying AI following you around that you have to babysit and often gets in your way, even if you order them not to.

2- SQUADS is a mode for people who like larger scale and want to have an easier time collecting kills. Face it, you like it easy. It’s ok, no shame there. Let’s be real, LONE FIGHTERS can get really annoying when you go against a team of highly skilled players and get thrashed over and over again. SQUADS allow you to fire upon things that barely react. Playing tanks for example is a joy in SQUADS because you can just drive around and butcher people. I don’t like it but I can understand who does.

3- Cheaters or the like exist in both modes in the same amount. You may think there are more in LONE FIGHTERS because you face (or used to) players more often, and who would have thought, they shoot better than bots.

4- Removing LONE FIGHTERS will NOT get more people into SQUADS. Not significantly. Most people who play it or asked for it in the first place, do so because they DON’T LIKE SQUADS. The reason they even bother with Enlisted is because of LONE FIGHTERS. Remove that and you drive away the players. A huge portion already left because of the horrible update on the UI. The long queues and high bot numbers filling for players are proof of that.

5- Just because you prefer one over the other, it does not mean everyone else is obligated to like what you like. That one hell of a “fat kid who owns the ball” mentality. “Play what I want or gtfo”.

6- And yes, LONE FIGHTERS could have player numbers increased. Only it makes no sense right now since player counts plummeted after the UI update. Adding more slots makes no sense until the mode gets fixed because it’ll just create more room for bots.

I hope everything was clear enough…

I play it because i can actualy move into a flank without 5 useless bulletcatchers giving my position away or chewing through 5 human shields of the one player hiding in the darkest corner. If LF is no more in the game I will stop playing it.

sorry for information you have at least read enlisted what it is about, “enlisted allows you to recreate the most important campaigns of the Second World War by putting the player together with other players in command of a team of bots to recreate massive and semi-realistic battles”
I have not read anywhere about a solo mode, lone figther is a secondary mode and so it must remain
