Making Enlisted a Better Place №65: Getting ready for Steam!

Update 15 July 2024

Each issue of our series focuses on a certain aspect of the game or a particular mechanic, in which we correct smaller, but noticeable bugs and add new interesting features.

Commanders, Enlisted will soon be available on Steam completely free!

In this "Making Enlisted a Better Place" update, we've gathered numerous fixes for small and bigger issues that you frequently reported on the Community Bug Report portal. Thank you for helping us make Enlisted better!

Unstoppable HE shells

This important change will please players using vehicles - some wooden structures, such as buildings, fences and bridges, were considered so thin by the game that neither HE shells nor even sensitive aircraft rockets would detonate on them. Shells would simply pass through them and explode far from where they were intended. But we've taught them good manners!

Now rockets, bombs, and HE shells no longer pass through logs and planks, but explode exactly where they land.

Unification of ammo pouches

What's the difference between a German and an Italian ammo pouch? Just their appearance. In terms of game mechanics, they're the same - allowing you to take more ammunition into battle. Problems arise when you create equipment presets with them. For example, when you run out of German pouches, the game will offer to buy more, even though you still have a full stock of Italian ones.

To simplify your battle preparations, the preset system will now treat different nationality ammo pouches as one item. So if you run out of one type while applying presets, the game will automatically switch to the other.

This will also be implemented for all other equipment - medkits, toolkits, grenades, and melee weapons.
