Improving graphical effects



The upcoming Enlisted update, among other changes, will delight you with updated graphical effects! These improvements won't affect the game’s performance on any graphics settings, and most of these effects can be turned off at any time in the game settings.

NVIDIA DLSS 4: Multi Frame Generation and improved visuals


Good news for commanders keeping up with the latest technologies! We have updated Enlisted to the latest DLSS version. Owners of NVIDIA RTX 50 series cards can now enable Multi Frame Generation to generate 2 or 3 frames in between two rasterized frames, enabling a visually smoother experience compared to the old frame generation that could only make 1.

DLSS 4.0 also includes a new DLSS model that further improves the image quality of the DLSS available on all NVIDIA RTX graphics cards.

Cinematic effects


We have added new effects simulating the style of movie cameras recording to film. Now you can truly make the game look cinematic.

All of these can be turned on and off individually on both PC and consoles.

Film grain


This setting adds a noise to the screen, like if the game was recorded on an analogue camera. Since this effect is always on, we made it subtle to not be distracting while playing.


 
Lens flare from the sun


Lens flare is the artifact of the lens system, when a bright light shines on it, it scatters light result in bright shapes on the final result.



Chromatic aberration


Chromatic aberration is the artifact on the edge of the screen caused by lens refracting the light based on its wavelength slightly differently, resulting in colored outlines around objects.



Motion blur


Motion blur is caused by the sensor accumulating light over time, during which objects can move. Visible only in motion and you can adjust the strength of this effect yourself.

Available on PC (except Bare Minimum), Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PlayStation® 5 and PlayStation® 5 Pro.

Water and blood droplet effects on screen




The existing effect of water and blood droplets hitting your screen will be improved! Blood can cover your screen not only from your own wounds, but also from hits on soldiers near you - both allies and enemies.



Weather effects are being updated too! The "Raindrops On Screen" option got replaced by "Screen Space Weather Effects". The old screen droplets are still there with some improvements, but now snow will also get stuck on the screen and then melt away.



Bullet hit marks on surfaces


We've improved bullet impact effects on different surfaces - the holes created by various calibers in wood, metal and even in your soldiers will now differ noticeably!



Let's finish with a small but important change for immersion. Bullet holes previously could only appear on opaque surfaces, but now if you shoot a window there’ll be a bullet hole on it too! (Assuming you don’t entirely break it.)



We would like to remind you that graphical improvements are not our only focus! Soon you'll be able to evaluate these and other changes in the game yourself.

In-game interface guides



Commanders! With the upcoming update, Enlisted will have a section containing text guides to help you familiarize yourself with the game’s various interfaces.

You will be be able to check them out by clicking on the newly added question mark button.



The articles, featuring screenshots and short videos, will cover important aspects of upgrading soldiers and vehicles, changing their appearance, using presets, as well as a general introduction to the game’s interface.

These guides will be available in English, German and Russian.

They will contain information that can be useful for both experienced players and newcomers to Enlisted.

Don't forget to put your newly acquired knowledge into practice!

Making Enlisted a Better Place №67



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.

Reducing the cost of discarding perks


We're back with an important change based on your feedback: we've revised the cost of discarding the perks of your soldiers - it's now much cheaper!



The cost of discarding a perk has been reduced from 90 to 20 Silver per ability point spent. This will allow you to repurpose your squads much cheaper and experiment with perks more easily!

Can I preview it? Yes, you can!


Now you can preview the unique camouflages in the Battle Pass without reaching the required level.



Just click on the "More detailed" button and check out what awaits you!

Faster and more melodic




Better mobility with the Gorov LMG (USSR, Battle Pass) - also among your requested changes! We classified it as an automatic rifle due to its lightness, however it still had a sprint speed penalty as if it were a machine gun. But from now on, nothing will prevent you from taking positions as quickly as with the AVS or AVT.

For those who prefer German weapons, we have good news for you too - the StG 44, STG 45(M) and MP 43/1 will sound different, in unison with the much loved MKb 42(H). Every shot will be music to your ears!

Other changes
  • Added working smoke grenade launchers to the Pz.II (F) (Germany, Premium) with 6 grenades.
  • Fixed a bug where the "Disarm reserve" button wouldn’t unequip melee weapons (swords, sabers, shovels and axes) from soldiers.
  • Fixed a bug where decals could not be applied to aircraft not actively used by the selected squad.
  • Removed the second (identical) purchase button from the squad level purchase window when there is only one level left for the selected squad.
  • Fixed a bug where you couldn’t replenish your medkits from medkits boxes if you had tools in your inventory.
  • Fixed an issue where soldiers preferred using pistols instead of their primary weapons.
WE APPRECIATE YOUR FEEDBACK!


Lots of exciting game mechanics have been realized or improved thanks to your ideas. We are watching our communities, other Enlisted sites and regularly check the forum for your feedback and reports.

[h3]Squad with Liu rifle (USA, BR II)[/h3]
The squad consists of 9 soldiers armed with the first Chinese-made semi-automatic rifle. The soldiers speak Chinese and wear unique blue uniforms.



The Liu rifle was developed in the early years of the 20th century by General Liu Qing En. Attempts to establish the production of this progressive weapon continued until 1938, but to no avail. The total number of manufactured rifles is unknown. It uses a powerful 7.92x57mm cartridge, allowing it to deal up to 15.3 damage per shot. Its fixed magazine holds 6 rounds and can be emptied at a rate of 350 rounds per minute. It also comes with a bayonet.

Terms
  • Tasks are updated every two days at 13:00 UTC, and the scoring starts again. Be sure to collect your reward before then, if you have managed to accumulate the required number of battle points, otherwise the task will not count.
  • The task can be completed in the Squads mode.
  • From February 18th (13:00 UTC) to February 20th (13:00 UTC), after the end of the event, you will have the opportunity to purchase any missing rewards for Gold.
