Since most Premium squads have the addition of an Engineer to 4 man squads, even a 6th AT slot for a lot…can you PLEASE add another Medic to the 4 woman 150th Medical squad? Even TT Medic squads have 5 soldiers…and given that this squad is one of the few to have women in game even though MANY fought in the war for the Soviets, please bump it to 5 to make the squad relevant and represented in the game.
Do you think they should add the 5th soldier to this squad? If no, why?
This German Medic squad needs it as well. I like the Orita SMG, just hate only having four medics. I also have the Soviet Chic squad and agree they both need an addition soldier or two. However, I don’t expect much from the Dev’s as this has been requested a few times with no response. I guess we wouldn’t want a knee jerk reaction.
Allies and Japanese have Premium medic squads as well, but they both have more then four. So, there is no reason the Germans and Soviets shouldn’t have at least five.
Japanese five man Medic squad
It makes ZERO sense to offer some Medic squads with five soldiers and some with four, they should ALL have the same number of soldiers. Just sayin
Yeah, otherwise no one would even bother using this medic squad even at BR1. The numbers are way too low, and on top of that, the medic squad sizes are different across all four nations.
I originally went for Germany just because it was in the beginner discount bundle.
I think we can expand on your suggestion. For example, let all high-tier medic squads come with four medics, plus one AT soldier and one engineer.
Right now I honestly think the only overpowered Chinese squad is the one on the US side, all because it’s placed at BR 2.
The two Sichuan Thompsons for the Chinese side are just made-up stats based only on looks.
On paper they look totally OP, but in reality they’re just lazy reskins of the PPSh-27 with random extra rounds thrown in and dumped straight into BR 3.
It’s ridiculous how two regular submachine guns have reload stats almost matching bridged loading speed.
The design feels super half-baked and lazy.
Actually using them just leaves a bad taste.
No wonder they dropped in price so fast trying to sell this mediocre stuff. That event unit should’ve just been balanced to match America’s M1 and put at BR 2 instead.
As things stand now, it’s still unclear what the future design direction for the medic squad will be.
Will it go all-submachine-gun like the Chinese Thompson squad, or follow the template of regular elite squads—with engineers and AT troops using semi-auto rifles for a six-man setup? Nobody knows for sure yet.
But I’ve noticed that many elite squads already have machine gunners and engineers each packing a LMG, effectively making them a five-man machine gun team, plus an extra AT soldier on top.
Looking at it this way, there’s really no reason to cap submachine-gun squads at only five SMG users.
I have to laugh when I see that a couple people apparently voted no. Why? Unless you have a complete disdain for Medic squads in general, it really makes little sense, especially since every faction has a premium medic squad and in all fairness, they should all be offered with the same amount of soldiers.
Logically speaking, when it comes to dealing with these premium squads, the staff at DF should act way faster than us players.
After all, this is a perfect chance for them to make money.
Don’t take these negative polls too seriously.
There are even legitimate posts that just want players to get better rewards, yet they still get opposed by their own community.
Those people are basically sellouts.
The difference is, in real life such people get benefits from capitalists,
but in the game they get nothing at all.
They just oppose reasonable suggestions for no gain of their own,
and end up suffering the bad consequences along with everyone else.
I don’t, I was laughing that someone would vote no on this. However, I have said this many times in the past few years, but I managed a car dealership in the US for over 15 years, and had I managed it the way Gaijin manages Enlisted, I would have been fired. So much promise with this game, yet very little vision, nor seriousness about making money as they could be selling squads and weapons in their BP store, yet they choose instead to just spoon feed us a weapon here and a weapon there .
Meanwhile, people get tired of waiting for the things they want and are willing to pay for, and start to lose interest in the game. I’ve been playing 4 1/2 to 5 years now and they have failed to excite me for the past year or so. I am down from playing 20-30 games day at one time to five or less.
Who knows? But we have to admit that Russian game operations are just this lackluster. No wonder the Soviet Union ended up collapsing. Anton really isn’t cutting it.
Still, we have to give it to Gaijin — their games are incredibly long-lived.
Look at their lowest-population modes; only a handful of players are left, yet they still keep the servers running.
If this were a proper mainstream published game, even DICE would do a better job than Gaijin, in my opinion.
I’ve always thought the only reason Gaijin is still standing is that they cling tightly to War Thunder as their cash cow.
In some countries, the War Thunder forum has even replaced local military enthusiast websites.
I have War Thunder but haven’t played in a couple years, in fact it is currently uninstalled on Steam to save space. I loved it for about six months, but quickly got bored with it being vehicle only. I got WT a LONG time ago, probably 2019 or so. I love Enlisted, but I am impatient with them now because I haven’t seen anything to be excited about in a long time and I get sick of this spoon fed and mystery box BS way of distributing weapons they have now. Just give me my damn BP store and I will get what I want, or I will just continue to play less.
I paid for and gave their new game Active Matter a chance, but after only playing a handful of times deleted it from my computer because I didn’t want to waste my memory on that. So, $29.95 or what ever down the tubes. I see they have Aces of Thunder out now as well, but it looks to be a vehicle game as well so I probably won’t buy it. I figure if WT bores me, so will Aces.
I just realized that the took 4 Movement AND Vitality points away from the squad so they aren’t even fast now…now there is NO reason not to have the 5th Medic.
