Update 0.2.5.30 (0.2.5.29 - Xbox, Playstation)

Enlisted begins the new year with many bug fixes and more. There are now 70 different missions available in Enlisted with today's update! We've added a few more to the Invasion mode, and for a number of already existing ones, we've added some decent tweaks.

In addition, our game now has a much fairer way of scoring airplane kills. We corrected kills that didn't count when the enemy shot down a plane, so you can keep the kill even if your enemy's AI-soldiers hit the already destroyed plane.

More great news: your AI-soldiers will be less likely to lag behind in long marches. If a soldier is too far behind, they'll have the stamina and speed to catch up with their unstoppable commander.

And, of course, we fixed a lot of annoying bugs - such as getting stuck in objects when leaving a machine gun. We also improved the ability to climb onto platforms on a moving train, we implemented the penetration of flammable mixtures through barriers and added several dozen useful fixes that you can read about in the full list of changes in the update.

CHANGES

ECONOMY

  • You will now receive Silver Orders for any accumulated experience in battles. For every 25 thousand experience β€” a silver order for a weapon. For every 50 thousand experience β€” a silver order for a soldier.

Weaponry and equipment

  • Added a new mechanic for weapon upgrading. Weapons are now upgraded using Bronze Weapon Orders instead of spare parts, and instead of disassembling a weapon, it can be sold for Bronze Weapon Orders. Workshop upgrades, that previously gave more parts for disassembling weapons and has made cheaper the cost of weapon upgrades in parts, now affect the cost of weapon upgrades in Bronze Orders and allow you to get more Bronze Orders for selling weapons. Our players' available parts have been exchanged for Bronze Weapon Orders at a rate of 1 order per 10 parts.
  • Now the stream of a flamethrower can penetrate into much narrower crevices, for example, between the bars and planks of some fences.
  • Removed increase in stationary machine gun sight.
  • Base ammunition size of PzB 39 has been reduced to a value typical to other anti-tank rifles and is 20 rounds instead of 50.
  • Corrected erroneous rate of fire of PTRS-41 from 240 to 75 rounds per minute.
  • Increased reload time of PPD, PPSh and PP Dolganov with massive drum magazines from 2.6 t

Meet the Armored Train update!

TRAILER <<<

We're wrapping up this year with a major update in Enlisted and in the spirit of the upcoming holiday season. Engineers can now raise aΒ  New Year Tree and radio operators can call in holiday artillery fireworks.

Meet the new unique mode "Armored train escort" - you will be able to try it in the "Battle of Berlin" campaign. Even if you play on previous-generation consoles - because in this update the campaign is available on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One!

More missions have been added to other Enlisted campaigns. And in the new campaign levels you will be welcomed by 12 squads and 18 models of weapons and vehicles.

Plus, the upgraded Battle Pass also deserves your attention.

Above all, you're once again invited to check out the entire list of new features in the major update. Put bayonets on weapons, take cover in dynamic bomb craters, ride on armored vehicles, give orders to improved AI soldiers, and enjoy the dozens of other cool upgrades we've prepared just for you.

HAPPY NEW YEAR, MY FRIENDS, AND GOOD LUCK!

By the way, in case you missed it, you'll find the new Enlisted Custom Games in the modes section. You'll be able to create your own battles there with your own rules. Lone Fighter mode has also moved to Custom Games. Also, Enlisted now has full cross-platform, so you can play with friends from different platforms in the same battle.

IMPROVEMENTS

The next Battle Pass season

The fourth season of Battle Pass begins, with new weekly Battle tasks that will earn you extra Battle Pass progress points. Read more in this devblog.

New season rewards:

  • Universal banners (posters).
  • 8 unique soldiers (one for each army in the game), purchased for Battle Pass gold orders.
  • 5 unique models of weapons (one for each army in the game, and some models, as before, can be used by several armies at once), purchasable for the Battle Pass gold orders: The Hyde Model 35, ERMA EMP 44, 1929 model PPD, VMP 1926, BSA Model 1929 Thompson.

My 2022 Reading Challenge Book List

For my 2022 reading challenge I have decided to read 1-3 books from every country in the world. This past year I attempted to do the same but the lack of preparation meant I was bogged down finding and waiting for books. Below is my reading list I have compiled as several people have mentioned they were interest.

Facts

It contains 520ish books with two countries I still need to find something for. 40% are female, 55% are male, and 5% are by various authors. There is a mixture of fiction and non-fiction. It includes everything from memoirs, cookbooks, histories, anthologies, legends, folkstories, poetry, plays, fantasy, romance, chick-lit, and scifi. The bulk is literary fiction.

Methodology

I started with the books I owned that I haven't read or wish to reread. I then looked through my TBR list on goodreads and reassigned those. From there I looked up my favorite authors on https://www.literature-map.com/, and included other authors similar to my favorites. From there I googled each country for their top 1-2 most popular authors. I finished with suggestions from reddit (including the country threads on r/books) and the amazing https://ayearofreadingtheworld.com/thelist/ . Authors with unlisted titles are because I was not able to find a copy of any book by the author at my library or for purchase (<7$) secondhand. These will need to be ILL and I’ll be deciding on the exact title when I apply for the loan.

Updates

I will be updating reviews of the books, as I go, on a subreddit I made for this called r/worldwidebooks . People are welcome to join me in the challenge for all of them, parts, or just to laugh.

List

Afghanistan

  • Qais Akbar Omar, Fort of Nine Towers
  • Nelofer Pazira, A Bed of Red Flowers
  • Farah Ahmedi, The Story of My Life: An Afghan Girl on the Other Side of the Sky

Albania

  • Gjergj Fishta, The Highland Lute

SERIOUS: This subreddit needs to understand what a "dad joke" really means.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Just because it's a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke

Alot of great jokes get posted here! However just because you have a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT NSFW, THIS IS ABOUT LONG JOKES, BLONDE JOKES, SEXUAL JOKES, KNOCK KNOCK JOKES, POLITICAL JOKES, ETC BEING POSTED IN A DAD JOKE SUB

Try telling these sexual jokes that get posted here, to your kid and see how your spouse likes it.. if that goes well, Try telling one of your friends kid about your sex life being like Coca cola, first it was normal, than light and now zero , and see if the parents are OK with you telling their kid the "dad joke"

I'm not even referencing the NSFW, I'm saying Dad jokes are corny, and sometimes painful, not sexual

So check out r/jokes for all types of jokes

r/unclejokes for dirty jokes

r/3amjokes for real weird and alot of OC

r/cleandadjokes If your really sick of seeing not dad jokes in r/dadjokes

Punchline !

Edit: this is not a post about NSFW , This is about jokes, knock knock jokes, blonde jokes, political jokes etc being posted in a dad joke sub

Edit 2: don't touch the thermostat
