Remove active infantry/Vehicle sqaud cap

So first time posting.

So I’m relatively new to Enlisted and I’m having a blast with it. Probally my favorite FPS of this year and recent time. So much so that I figures I take the time to pull up the forums and provide some feedback on something I’d like to see changed.

Unless there’s something I’m overlooking that would make the game incredibly broken and unbalanced, I find the caps on vehicle and infantry swuards you’re allowed to have active to be frustrating.

I’m speaking as a player that strongly prefers infantry. I’ve given planes and tanks multiple tries but they are playstyles that currently do not interest or click with me. I much prefer to hone my skills with infantry as I feel that is where I am most useful.

Bad it saddens me the game more or less forces me to keep active vehicle squadrons in my deck that I have no interest in playing. Sqauds that I would much prefer to swap out for another infantry unit

On the flip side, maybe players more interested in tanks could benefit from being able to field more vehicle squadrons (Albeit I don’t think there’s more than two oer army?)

I’d love to hear from more veteran and knowledgeable players if something like this would be unbalanced, from my newbie perspective however, I fail to see how much of a difference it would make.

the premium accounts exist for this

was a bit confused what it means but i think i’ve got it down, maybe they could make it so you could have all 4 slots occupied by infantry but can’t do the same for vehicles seriously if you want to do that go play war thunder what they could also do is make either 1 slot or 2 slots grindable. if it’s 1 slot then it could be used by a vehicle or infantry and 2 slots is self explanatory on what it could be used for

Caps out at 4 infantry while free account is 3 infantry.

you can buy more slots

Of course I can

But why not also let me take the slots the game does give me, and fill them out with infantry? And if I want more slots than that, maybe to squeeze in a vehicle (Or even more infantry) I’ll buy a slot

i don’t see any problems with having a minimum cap of no less than 3 inf and letting us do whatever with the rest of the squads

but i imagine the restrictions are in place for them make more money

bc the need to make money

Of course they do

So hey, you could make it another premium account perk. When subbed and paying the debts money, you’re not locked into caps for what kind of squads you can have active.

And if that’s not enough? There still exists the option to buy more slots.

or you can buy more slots so the devs make more money on a free to play based game.

So I don’t know the finances behind this game. But exactly how many people are buying slots compared to paying for the premium deal?

In both cases they’re still making money. And by creating even more incentive to keep people paying to be premium by expanding on what freedoms they offer over a free account - I get the impression it’s more profitable and would create more consistent income.

if you reach lvl 29 you dont need more than 5 slot.

in my experience an assault, gunner, engingeer with 1 slot free for your choice are enough and with both tanks and plane dont need anything more.

I agree - there should be no minimum number of required vehicles - be all infantry if you want - ther’s no gameplay reason why not.

You’re not wrong, but the devs have correctly recognized, that this is a good way to make money. Slightly scummy in my opinion, but I caved eventually and purchased an additional slot for Normandy and Moscow (but in my case, because I wanted two vehicle slots).

3 slots for basic needs. Get premium for 4 inf slot, and pay for the 5,6,7th slot. Good way to make money, and making money is why we have this game to play (and to pay).

Agree.

Yes we can buy additional slots/premium but we still have to bring planes or tanks in combat even some people dont use them ever.

If someone buys 2-3 extra slots for infantry, he probaply wont buy more cause price is too high and he dont really NEED those slots any way

3 free slots for infantry only is enough for now.

i haven’t put any money in the game.

it takes much more time to progress i guess but it’s still viable

Being able to have 2 vehicle slots with premium and even more if you buy additional slots is a P2W feature. One should have 2 vehicle slots regardless of premium or not. Also one should buy unlimited slots but only for infantry

having 16 squads does not change the game if you don’t know how to play from the start but I agree to give 2 vehicles to everyone to solve the CAS problem

Agree on some points, swapping out vehicle slots for infantry would be a good thing. The opposite however would not.
