Top 10 Mistakes Every Enlisted Player Still Does - Enlisted Guide 2024

Also - tanks are great breakthrough tools - annoying heavy mg? He round. Annoying sniper? He round. Tank in the grey zone. Ap round. A group of smgers in cover in front the point bullying your entire team? He round. Bunkers on d-day seem a bit too populated? He round.

After 4,200 battles @ 75% W/L (cross-platform), I figure I'd post some tips that I wish I'd heard as a noob. 1) The single biggest thing that will decide your power level in Enlisted is your squad setup. Ideally you should be fielding Machine Gunners, Assaulters, Flametroopers; with Engineers & AT's embedded throughout. 2) Stop viewing things like AT mines, smokes, binos, and shovels as gimmicks. They are often vital. 3) If you see a tank, assume there's two bc for some reason people's squad selections often sync up. 4) Do NOT give up in matches. I don't care how screwed you think you are, you'd better be running towards that obj. by the time that defeat screen appears.

[@RicePattyChoppa]

The don't give up part is hard for me. When the team just won't push, I put the rally in a bad spot just so it will end quicker. The "never give up" doctrine only stays with you so long.

[@ilimes]

@@RicePattyChoppa why even play then? it gets exhausting carrying bad players but ffs might as well retire.

[@RicePattyChoppa]

@@ilimes nah I still like to play, I don't even mind losses if it's competitive. Im saying when the team is braindead I just make the inevitable happen faster lol. I won't do it if I see at least one other rally.

[@shagakhan9442]

I was playing Axis on a Tunisia map. We had 3 obj left and had less than half our tickets. I just kept getting in the Obj and clearing it, but I would get no follow-up teammates. I just kept spamming "Attack the Objective." Finally, the smooth-brains on our team decided to help grant us a victory with zero respawns and the timer ticking down. It was exhilarating. If you don't like the map, I understand abandoning your teammates. Just to give up, instead of losing? Does it not get counted as a loss if you leave?

[@hudsonflores5478]

bruh im at tier 2 and even the weird explosive charge thing you get is still pretty good, and the smokes and binos are actually useful, does nobody actually use them? I have nothing to say for shovel because while entrenching is effective I have to spearhead attacks or nobody else will because they are cowardly fools who apparently think that dying ingame has negative effects... or at least it seems like they do because I dont have a better explanation for why they arent pushing the barely defended point.

[@rollastudent]

Everyone needs to realize this is an construction game with a shooter mini game, not a shooter with construction

[@deathsky5737]

Rally points....... BUILD THEM

[@christhehistory]

I love taking a apc and just driving behind the objective it works almost every time. Because almost everyone atack from the front of the objective you just take them by surprise and get a good spawn point and some easy kills.

[@firefalcon3086]

I love it when the enemy team does this. Always means I get a free kill

[@celticperspective5183]

The Shovel for your engineers is actually really OP if you use it properly. If you can place a rally point near enough to the objective you can clear a trench pathway for your team to get to it without exposing themselves to enemy fire. Also digging foxholes and trenches does actually help reinforce your defence, and by definition can’t be destroyed by the enemy. Tank Traps are quick and easy to build and are vital in closing off routes for enemy tanks and also provide protection from explosives so placing them near doorways and holes in the roof of bunkers and such does help as well. Sandbags are good to spam on windows and doors too, but don’t do so on places not near the objective because it reveals your location. Barbed wire is good to place on entrances and attack routes but DO NOT spam it inside the actual objective unless you know your team doesn’t need to move through there, because there’s been too many times where someone in the point makes an impenetrable ball of sandbags and barbed wire, meaning the team can’t cap the point quick enough, and then the engineer inevitably dies to a grenade or an assaulter who suicide runs the point. Bad tactics… Engineers can swing the outcome of games more often than not, so it’s good to have a dedicated squad and then at least one in another squad in your loadout.

[@appllwithmemes]

Yep. Only reason to take shovel off engineer is sword. Maybe axe if you're cool

[@ningkon3787]

YOU NEED TO FLANK regardless of attacker or defender, either your flank works and you push the enemy back or your flank fails and your enemy has moved some of its resources to reinforce the flank.

[@chinua2584]

In particular I bound "mark" as a LMB+RMB and LMB (Double tap) that way it marks anything I take an aimed shot at, or anything I repeatedly shoot at, while not dropping false blips where I'm building.

[@appllwithmemes]

Swapping shooting and aiming to your bumpers is very 2010

[@flapbe]

About the first tip, I do not recommend setting marks the same as left click, you do NOT want to mislead your teammates to bomb or attack that position when you're building structures via engineers or shooting small groups of enemies, but you should set it to a button easily accessible to enhance your ai (the ai respond to marks) and teammate's combat effectiveness.

[@paradivision1362]

its a trade off, either lots of marks, most of them useful or few marks. what i recommend leads to much better outcomes. i tested it in professional games too, its vastly superior to not having automarking the better your enemies are.

[@flapbe]

@@paradivision1362 I think once you mark enough, its basically training instinct and it's only natural after a while, it all depends if the user wants to spend that time to not have any trade offs

[@DodoSniffer73]

Snipers are easy to counter too, even if you dont have a sniper - you have a large-ish squad, if they kill you, you know their location and can hit them with a bolt action. If they do not kill one of you, then ignore them.

Always be pushing and trying to flank. If you are capable, try looking for enemy enemy spawns. Check in and behind small structures, and inside many trenches near the Obj.

The unfortunate thing with mortar squads is the short time of the game modes. Usually, you can't afford to use them much because the match can be over very quickly. If you take the mortar squad and nobody drops pings. Put a marker of your mini-map around or behind the obj. If you can lob mortars into an occupied obj even better. The return on the mortar is very low, but it is one of my favorite squads.

[@makarov718]

mortars are very hit or miss for me and extremely map dependent, ive had great games with them but 90% of the time they do squat and i just dont run them, on the flip side since no one uses them at br5 its very easy to get the best mortar award

[@appllwithmemes]

Either Get map knowledge, and (unless you're f2p and don't have an extra slot) and use mortars exclusively for open objectives, or get the big boy mortars and drop freedom on grey zone camping tanks. Just use a random dude as a scout, swap to your mortars, and let loose.

[@ryanmichael74]

One mistake I’ve noticed is the use of mounted MGs on offense. When attacking I usually use the cannon instead of the MG because the cannon is a lot better than the MG for clearing infantry and tanks. It’s also movable which makes it more flexible than having to destroy your machine gun nest. But the main reason is that the MG serves no use for attacking on the squads it’s available for, the engineers can build cannons, machine gunners don’t need the mg nest because they’re better on foot or prone, and premium squads can build cannons. For attacking (except in low br) I’d just stick to cannons or rushing. Great vid btw🔥

[@HalifaxDave]

But building sn MG nest overlooking the rear of the objective, especially from the flank, can be good. And yes, building one 80m back on the natural spawn axis is generally dumb.

[@ilimes]

if the obj. has cover that can be penetrated by HMGs, then that's the best.

[@DodoSniffer73]

Building anything that is not a rally is a waste of time imo, tanks can clear things out better than cannons, if you run out of ammo just switch the soldier, you are on offense to you have no time to set up barbed wire or sandbags, and hedgehogs are used exclusively to troll oblivious tanks

[@fatcontrollerproductions9910]

​@@DodoSniffer73 at guns are too hit and miss but hmg is extremely powerful in an area overlooking objective like the main road leading up to it. Also using tanks, planes, fortifications means you die less and when attacking this can be helpful to preserve spawn points, as long as you keep playing objective of course.

to what I wrote earlier, I would like to add that every match turns into hell, especially if you try to do everything to help your team win in the era of idiots on discord sabotaging the match and you can't do anything about it when you sit at the controls of a bomber, all the correct marking stops, the map suddenly becomes naked I myself have blocked over 2,500 people on my account who are disabled enough to uninstall the game because otherwise they only harm the world's intelligence and the problem of hackers is such a huge phenomenon that when I see people sweating and not even reporting the hacker, they probably love sadomasochism.

[@hudsonflores5478]

11:30 this is for people without enough hours on war thunder to identify and burn every single AT they see with a flamethrower stuart. All you need is flamethrower stuart, a really good eye for AT guns, and a lack of regard for your life and suddenly you can become a self propelled flamethrower (with about the same life expectancy but frankly if you did it right your life pales in comparison to the position you just burned) My highest tier equipment is also tier 2 though so... maybe not always.

[@shagakhan9442]

Use the AT gun and tanks in clearing out the objective. I usually start with the "APC" and post up as close to the Obj as possible. Then, if needed, pull up a tank with HE or HEAT and hit the obj through windows or behind it. Use the smoke shell some tanks have to shoot into the obj where the enemy is. Or use the AT gun with HE to try the same. The low tier Panzer III with the long 5cm is good enough with HE. Same with the beautiful Puma.

[@appllwithmemes]

Beat tip for grinding fast: be good. If you're good enough at fighting, you don't need to build all sorts of stuff to win. The two most important things in Enlisted are shooting and strategy. Building is a distant 3rd (not rallies though, those count into strategy) because you don't need it to win, it's just helpful. But if you have braindead strategy and can't shoot straight, you're never going to win. However, if you strategize and fight well, you can win without building anything but rallies. Enlisted has too many tips to list in one video or or comment. Just play the game and get the hang of good strategy and good fighting. The grind will really speed up after that.

[@hudsonflores5478]

something I find interesting is that I am the one killing half of the enemy assault, single handedly halting enemy armored advances, and squadwiping multiple people per life while getting at least 3rd place, usually higher, and yet its the incompetents and fools that I use as meatshields and free bodies because I cant use them for anything else which leave when we start losing.
