New limited class: Saboteur

Perhaps they’re bilingual.

I actually think the classes in the game are already pretty much complete.
I even suddenly remembered someone on the forum suggested something like glider assault paratroopers—they’d crash-land straight onto the ground via aircraft, faster than regular paratroopers.

That concept is way more reasonable and solid than the newly added class they just put out.
Since this new unit is way stronger than the old guerrillas, DF will definitely limit its squad size to balance it.
But here’s the problem: all the old squads already got increased unit counts.
If this new one has a smaller squad, in high-pressure matches, it’ll basically just be sneaking around picking stuff up—annoying players just like campy snipers.

They should’ve just upgraded the existing guerrillas instead.
It feels like they tried to make a more historically accurate class, but forgot this game is a large-scale, fast-paced battlefield with AI—it just doesn’t fit.

This new class will make APCs and rally points useless. Nobody will bother building rallies and spawning APCs which will be blown within half a minute. It seems that the saboteur is not revealed if he destroys an enemy rally, or APC (just if he kills soldiers his disguise might be revealed). This is going to be toxic for gameplay. I am thinking I might take a looooong break from Enlisted.

Maybe he is able to change race.
White-facing?

Well, at least that’s it. Maybe we should give the Soviet saboteur an MP-40? It’s just that the MP-35 is a very rarely used weapon and should arouse suspicion.

ai?

Won’t argue with that, and actually thinking about it, that might happen with the BR adjustments next update.

I would have preferred a new category of light vehicles, like a jeep with a machine gun, but they give us this garbage. Or, I don’t know, Engineer 3 with concrete structures like a mini-bunker with a machine gun, etc., or Radio Operator 3 with long-range anti-tank artillery, but no!

I think maybe because the MP35 was bought by the Soviets pre-war?

IS THIS THE APRIL FOOLS? :broken_heart:

Did they confirm it yet if this class would also be TT? or will it be event/premium only?

Because MP 40 is BR2, not BR3.

“Literally who asked for this? Devs are just making stuff up as they go at this point. How about focusing on things that actually matter to the player base?”
