Why are the devs so retarded?

>>723860280 (OP)
It's hard to say, Foxhole has some of the weirdest anti-fun for the common player decisions made I've ever seen in a game. What did they fuck up this time?

>>723860280 (OP)
Whoever lied and said this was fun solo, fuck you.

getting rid of clan system would probably fix at least 50% of this games problems

I've had fun solo. But that was 3 years ago since I played. Why are the devs retarded? What happened?

>>723862036
it would
you can have clan drama (and medium populations) or factional pvp (and high populations) or both (and low populations)
They are not compatible systems

>>723862167
>>723862036
What does the clan system actually do besides give you clantags?

>>723862213
the devs bend over backwards to suck the cocks of whatever discord trannies run the clans. in their latest update they made a snitch list attached to vehicles so that they can get you banned for "misusing" a vehicle you built with resources you farmed because it isn't what they wanted you to do with it

>>723862853
>the devs bend over backwards to suck the cocks of whatever discord trannies run the clans.
Where have I heard this before?

>>723863767
How's goonfleet doing?

I thought this game looked interesting, but is it like rust where you need to be in a group in order to have fun?

>>723864431
Depends, do you like driving trucks for hours?

>>723861987
That was probably me, I'm sorry. I tried to find my fun just keeping my head down and trying to help logistics wherever I could, but holy shit the cartels (or regiments as they prefer to be called) in this game are such miserable fucking losers

>>723864431
Basically. You can either play solo and do absolutely nothing but grab the shittiest guns and shoot at nothing, or you can be a logistician and just click menus over and over, or you can suck tranny cock and join a clan and join up on whatever fun shit they (and only they because nobody else is allowed without their permission) do

as a solo player i don't even mind the game that much. it's fun doing backline and midline but then i glance at the chat window and i see the community i associated with and it makes me want to not play the game anymore. i can't support such a toxic fucking community. and i don't mean the fun toxic kind like calling people faggots on arma reforger, i mean the unfuckingfun toxic kind where if you dare to have an ounce of fun in this game you get team killed and mass reported by the mafias running this shithole game. it's one of those rare games where the game itself is good but it's completely ruined by the community and the devs refuse to do anything about it because the vocal minority always wins.

>>723864707
Nah it's fine I knew what I was getting into. That sounds about right this game is setup for clan faggotry and not the good kind. Really cool concept I'm just an autist that can't communicate with strangers. If I had a squad I'd probably have fun. Can't play Hell Let Loose either because of this. Some games are just shit solo

>>723860280 (OP)
It's inherently impossible to make the game work as it's based on trust and respect and modern gamers are not capable of either.

>>723865272
nice retarded answer lmao

>>723865674
It's undeniably the truth, people today can't be trusted to handle the open systems presented to them, the only solution is to apply limits and locks and that takes away from the fun.

Great idea, impossible to implement.

I saw gameplay of this on steam and it looked fun as fuck, but now I see this thread... What's wrong with it?

>>723866848
griefing tactics, alt accounts, rmt

I think this game has devs the playerbase deserves.
5 minutes looking at global chat will tell you why I think this.

>>723862853
>>723862213
Clans also have total reign via mass reports. If you slight one of them even without knowing it, they can mass report you and you get banned by a bot and then have to go through a lengthy review process.

Never happened to me but there's lots of documented cases like this. The actual war of Foxhole isn't collies vs. wardens, it's the clans vs the rest of the players.

>>723864935
I think the concept with logi and everything being playermade is fun but jesus christ the weird topdown perspective makes normal infantry combat so clunky. If someone made foxhole as an over the shoulder TPS or just FPS (no this old ass WWII browser game doesn't count) I'd immediately migrate.

Why are clans in a WWII shooter? This makes no sense to begin with. Shit is retarded. My guess too, is the people gatekeeping resources don't even know how to properly build tactically. I've experienced this in many games, very rarely do you come across someone who has skill in building tactically. Usually people when they build, are building a meta build from some content creator and that content creator's builds are mid.

>>723863767
It's crazy how CCP deepthroated big null alliances, then again a lot of the devs themselves were in those same alliances so I guess it figures.

Thank god I didn't bought it when it was FOTM.

>>723867310
Ahhh I see, basically rusts' problem then

>>723867913
I did but the moment I caught a whiff of clan bullshit I bailed.

>>723867745
Came for this. Thanks. Bye.

>>723864935
This. Its absolutely cancerous mean girls tier catty drama shit by the discord trannies and their their inner circles, who will act as absolutely toxic, vicious cunts and passive-aggressive fucks to make you a good little peon and tow the woke party line or they will mass report you and get you banned. They are also terminally online neets, who are here since early access and completely entrenched themselves into the game, so there is no way around them. They are free to act like yappy schoolyard bullies in their asskissing little fiefdom where they can spam troon memes about HRT and that ikea tranny shark

>>723867559
why are there regiments and divisions in real life armies? organization and collective instruction makes you win

>>723868980
The way it works in foxhole is the discord clans are more like nobles and everyone else are peasant levies.

>>723869162
>implying this isnt also exactly how irl armies work

I've tried getting into this game and joined a clan.
Is it too late for me?

I will never play w*rdens

Their upcoming medieval game looks fun but it'll probably succumb to the same clanfag shit as this.

Entire thread is like 4 seething anti-socialites who hate the community and justifiably got booted out. It’s like that weird kid in high school nobody liked interacting with

>>723868980
The difference to real life is that a new player or just someone who doesn't play as often doesn't get automatically sorted into a regiment. In real life armies you can't just be a solo soldier doing your own thing.

The problem isn't that players self organising is the winning strat - that's the whole premise of the game. It's that the clan players can bully everyone else into submission via mass reports and than the devs only pander to them.

hah boy kisser :3c uwu

>>723860280 (OP)
I will never get over bullets no longer damaging buildings.
The frontline was such a fun and dynamic sandbox before that and the backline partisan game fueled me so hard.

Y'all should try playing on Charlie instead of Able.

Able is the sweaty tryhard server where clans go crazy. Charlie is the more laid back one where the game has the opportunity to be fun.

>>723860280 (OP)
Thankfully I never got past the shitty isometric combat so I quit before going too deep.

>>723860280 (OP)
because the playerbase is retarded

>bullets no longer damage buildings
>fire barely spreads and you need 10 people to set anything meaningfully on fire
>facility buildings leave husks so you can't even kill them
Devs bending over backwards to cater to clans and their useless mega factories killed this game for me. It's bad enough you get mass reported for stepping one foot in some tranny clan's """"""private facility"""""", but now you can't even destroy the other side's facilites and do any meaningful damage anymore.

>>723869191
irl army officers are held accountable by a higher authority. foxhole clans are allowed to run amok and abuse their power because the devs gave up years ago, stopped moderating their game, and then started banning people for asking for paid ingame moderators

>>723870335
The devs should make fire destroy facilities. No facility husks. If it burns down, resources gone.

You can do fire solo but you need at least a wildjack or flameAC - they can tank rifle garrisons long enough to light t1 or t2 bbs on fire.

Another dev should make a clone.
This game niche needs to go back to shorter wars, with more focus on fighting, fewer logi requirements, and most importantly actually being able to say anything in chat without getting banned. Another game can come along and rape siegecamp if they let us call the troons a bunch of faggots.

The voicechat still breaks constantly so you have to manually reconnect in options. Remember 'operations' where players were encouraged on frontlines to all join up into voice chat and do stuff together like flank or vehicle plays? Well that fun period got axed because of a voicechat bug where you could hear the other faction and voice constantly broke. So now its just go on discord and get banned by trannies. And they deleted operations for no reason.

Why does colonial attract so many furries?

>>723861413
Same as those retarded faggots that ruin Helldivers 2
They can't just help themselves
Glad I didn't buy this game
One was more than enough

>>723862853
Wow
Truly subhuman behaviour
Stay away from this shit

>>723872119
This game is made for people who autistically dedicate themselves to a single game. Time is a resource in Foxhole and the more you're online and playing, the bigger your advantage.
This naturally attracts social rejects with few or nor IRL responsibilities, let alone offline friends or hobbies.

Furries aren't exactly known for their mental stability and sanity so to me it makes sense that games like this attract weirdos that are too much even for your common anon.

btw this is the game I thought I wanted literally my whole life ever since I played Infantry (sony online) as a kid

however the way people tolerate insane troon drama and clan mass abuse makes it really shitty, a true monkey paw if there ever was one

>>723869342
Anvil is literally designed around feudal-like system run by clans. Devs doubled down on clan play
It's so over

I like that people use the voice chat a lot, contrary to the recent thread that zoomers don't use it in games in general. I can't quite put my finger on why, but there's something about the way it's designed that pushes you to.

> as regular infantry you can't heal yourself, a dedicated medic player must do it for you
> as a medic you can't heal yourself, if there's no other medic around, you need to talk to someone, drop your medkit item, have them pick it up, heal you, and give it back to you
> aiming far makes you stop paying attention to your character and your flanks, you may not notice that someone has flanked your trench and is now inside it
> same for grenades, the audio cues are inaudible in a busier battle - you may not notice that you're standing in gas, or that a frag nade is at your feet, especially at your feet
> when you're downed you can still see your surroundings, talk and ping

These situations happen pretty often in the infantry gameplay loop and it'd be tedious (and impossible to get people's attention) to use the text chat all the time. Taking out an infantry kit from the inventory and walking back to where the fighting is after dying also takes a while. I guess maybe each player life has some more value because of it. Especially if you're far from your spawn point, if you die, you die "for good".

My theory is that this habit carries over to other parts of the game where the voice chat isn't really needed, but people use it anyway since they already got their feet wet.

Sounds like most of the thread's problem is that they want sporadic unregulated cooperation to be the norm.
However I can't even name a single game that promotes cooperation and stays in a perpetual frontier-feel state.
Sooner or later bodies of collective power form up and become the actual predominant entities ruling the game's scape. Either by being more effective at reaching gameplay goals or by assimilating the chaotic solo ronins they can and eliminating others by ousting them out. Most of the time it's both.

post your clan discord hauls

It's a good game. It does what it promises. I can tell by the complaints ITT that people either haven't played it or are socially inept.

Burned 404th base yesterday might do it again
they never learn
