Desert!
Trust me. Your time is precious, don’t waste it on games you can’t win.
Join a game and see for yourself. If it’s unbalanced or already a lost game, leave the game at the same time and try another one.
After nearly five years of playing Enlisted I got used to the match making sucking ass. However, the part that frustrated me the most was not the suck ass match making, but the fact that I had to endure the match making in game modes and maps that I took the time to give my thumbs down to when the Dev’s rolled out their preferred map and mode BS.
I eventually tried my first custom match game about a year ago, and now I hardly play in general matches any more. Yeah, it’s all bots in personal matches, however, I always get to choose the map I want to play. I always get to choose the mode I want to play, and I get to decide how hard of a match do I want to play. I’m 62, I’m playing for entertainment, not frustration. 
So, if the Dev’s can’t fix their general game match making, then choose plan B. I don’t personally see them ever getting the match making part improved.
The matchmaking does not allow this. If you are fully BR 1, the highest BR of the enemy team you can face is BR 2; not BR 3. If you really are encountering BR 3, this will be a bug that we’d encourage you to report (with the session ID/battle replay of the match it happened in) so we can get this fixed. Alternatively it may be that you think a weapon is BR III when it is actually BR II - but since I don’t know what battle you are referring to or what exactly made you believe (whether correct or incorrect) you’re BR I facing BR III, I can’t confirm either way.
Its been reportred and happened to me and friends 2x this week. Hes not lying. Its a hack players are using. Those websites some sell that BR hack. Maybe why its so important to have a legal department thats active to have those sites taking down and sued.
I reported those websites a while back and enlisted did nothing but take my comment down. Even worse is Cronus Zen users on PS5 come with no recoil. They hack by connected PS App on laptop or PC using cheat software. Enlisted has no interest in legal action or take downs of those sites. They will spend more time saying “move comment to mess room” than listening to what your saying. I know. They take my comments down often even with proof.
Next time show game number and what map it was so they cant say it doesnt happen. That way all players can look. Dont give them room to wiggle. Also post on reddit where there is more freedom and no mods to hide those sins.
When we use to play Combat Ams from Nexxon they didnt take hacking seroius either. It got so bad people flew in map and under it. They even knifed killed one part of map to the other. Players stoped spending money in game and started leaving. By the time Nexxon did anything it was too late. The police did find the hacker in USA but everytime they went serve court paperwork he moved. Extremly hard to find this dude was. Even made the news you can read. Type Combat Arms Nexxon hacker police blah blah you can see and read.
1 thing you will hear to often is I only seen 1 hacker in this game ever. I looked at their game and they just really good. Those people are not skilled hacker hunters. They just witness aimbot and no recoil and torally missed it. Even me sometimes it seems 50/50 they might be and I been playing games since Frogger and Pong.
Enlisted tries harder than most companies to catch hackers but not hard enough to weed out cronus zen users or take legal action againts sites that sell hacks. Still lot of work to be done.
There is no good matchmaking in this game, you realize it when you are in BR5 and the enemy and your allies have BR2-3 weapons. I have made posts about it but they are simply ignored.
i find that not believable cause it would require server side hack or at least client sending false data to server. even if by some miracle it works, it would be easily detectable and they would get banned.
well this is more of a sony problem. iirc it is impossible to detect if someone has cronus zen or not cause it behaves like any other controller.
it is forum rules. you dont discuss cheat software(and dont post links) cause it can be promotion for them. only thing you can do is to PM staff and hope that they do something.
i dont take it seriously cause i finish in first place over 90% of the times and i am not even that good of a player. i have maybe encountered 3-4 players where i have questioned if they had cheats or if they were just that good and that is over 4 and half years and thousands of matches. if people are cheating in this game, then they suck even with cheats cause i have rarely seen a score that heavily outnumbers me(when i am not derping).
matchmaking cant fix stupid. people get high BR event weapon or they research one high BR TT weapon and equip it and they are automatically high BR.
cool story. now say to me why do you believe that cheats enable server side hacking or that they use false stream of data to servers from client? wallhacks, aim bot or whatever else are all client side cheats.
here is last post from one of those links
one of the sites is flagged for malicious code by at least one antivirus in virustotal.
not one of the links you provided included BR cheat in their description.
are there cheaters? yes. i have never said that there are no cheaters. if you check enlisted ban list you will see ~50-200 people banned every time that list comes out. but do you know what is enlisted playerbase? it is ~100k daily unique users, ~350k weekly unique users and last time i got data it was ~1.6 million unique players in 3-3.5 month period. in that time period there were 2 ban waves with maybe total of 100-200 players.
cheats exist, but they are not widespread in this game. most people who complain about cheats are usually shit players who are salty that there is someone better than them. there is replay and you can see if player is cheating or not by watching their gameplay.
So you’re telling me that this didn’t happen to me and that I’m lying? It’s truly unbelievable. I thought the extent of it was just people here gazing into crystal balls or claiming to have psychic powers—but the fact that arrogant condescension is taking over here… all I can say is: wow. Just wait until these people have a little ailment of their own—then the whining will be twice as loud.
actually yes. every time i see people accusing players without any evidence i will drop skill issue. shit players cant differentiate between good player and cheater. if you suspect someone of cheating, open replay and watch him. if there is suspicious play, then report him to game master.
Nah, you’re right—I just thought about it, and hey, these developers are obviously all stupid and dumb and have no idea what they’re doing; especially in the age of AI, it’s highly unlikely anyway. I bow before you and offer my apologies, oh supreme, all-knowing deity.
Oh my God… I’ll spare you any further comment from me…
ah those great arguments… devs know what they do. AI is all powerful.
you have still not shown ounce of evidence that:
- cheats can affect matchmaking
- cheats are widespread
here is question: how many cheaters did you find in enlisted? how many of them did you report? how many of them did get banned? all player reports go through game master who watches reported players for cheats and banned players are shown in public ban list OUTLISTED №9 - News - Enlisted
there have been valid reports over the years about BR1 players encountering BR3 players/bots. idk if it was ever fixed Matchmaking Sucks
My desertion rate is 45 percent all due to unbalanced shitgames on maps i do not want. That is absurd.
The match making is shite and it will be the thing that brings down this game.
Not bugs, not lack of content, not the same old maps again and again but being forced into battles with seal clubbers and noobs that equip 1 weapon in a higher BR that they should be fighting in and gets smashed by vets who don’t give a f*ck as long as they get loads of points.
Exactly, I am at the point I just do not care anymore about the penalty. You stay in a bad game get no points, get wrecked hate the game. Or leave join a better match. Just don’t use Join any they steal that bonus to play Join any loss. They are such cowards for the desertion penalty when the map selection is a joke. Force players into matches or maps they do not want to play. Joy 6 cap assault on ATK with a river in between. Or Normandy as US.
Its impossible to play BR1 versus BR3 unless someone you teamup with pre match is BR2. That part I know. I think once you hit 3 it can be possible 5?
If Battle eye cannot detect it, is it really hacking? If tree falls and no one is around to hear kind of thing. Console players get Aim assist I think. It is not that Enlisted did not do anything they just have not been able to find the fix for what people are doing. It is not a static process. It is why they have updates. Nothing is going to be 100% so they hope for 95% and say its 99% when its really 90% of players do not use some form of assist. Hack is too vague a term. It is not hard to assume console players are using custom controllers that you can program functionality into button. Its not hacking, its not cheating but its altering the core functionality of the game.
