    Those were the best times, and the last time I actually played seriously. I remember joining a one map war that was going good for colonials (duh) and finding 4 random guys, start a raid on the enemy, end up finding a great defensive position, and accidentally get carried away and create a massive FOB all in a couple hours. Like, that was the best part of the game in my opinion. Logi was able to divert and start supplying this new base out of nowhere, frontliners were willing to go sit on a random patch of grass and rocks while it got built, it was just pure teamwork

    Bruh this is so true, back then you could singlehandedly make one tank for yourself and hid it somewhere in the safe area and rode it in times where our faction has gotten overrun. And even building a secret outpost for yourself or your team, stockpiling weapons and items made by your own hands. Then you can contribute yourself as logi after building your first truck and get praised by the Frontline people for stockpiling respawn mats on the frontline outpost or the city halls. Good times, good times.

    Imagine if they added player-built railways for rapid transport of bulk goods, vehicles, and troops behind the front line. (...and late-game artillery, of course!) Partisans blowing up tracks and derailing trains would become a thing, just like in real wars. (There should already be a basic railway already in place on day one.)

    Knowing the insanely large convoys behind every fighting force. The Logistics needed not only some shitty 6X6 trucks, but Semi trucks, Trains, Wreckers, and Specialized trucks. That might also make Logi more interesting. Trains most of all will add an important thing to every war. Its ability to transport equipment in bulk. Hence why America, Russia and Germany in WW2 was able to mobilize their armies so fast. All because of trains and differing types of trucks they have behind their main forces. Chugging along Ammo, Food, Medicines, and Fuel to the armored vehicles and men fighting.

    I think they need to make the backline logistics heavy, with a higher player capacity. Then, add a way to transport mass quantities of goods to the front, such as trains. That would bring back the old, social aspect of logi. Make logi hubs actually hubs instead of broom closets, don't make it take 20 minutes to pull out public bmats, and create some way to transport larger quantities of items and materials on an ever-growing map. I enjoy logi, I get some beers, get music goin, and just do logi. IT's kinda therapeutic. But there is nothing theraputic about a 20-minute drive to the front, just to sit in a queue for an hour.

    A lot of what logi players want is QOL adjustments, like longer timers on factory timers, a closed logistics system, aka not leaving your flatbed at the front after delivering because it's MUCH faster to simply die or go back to home region (due to no reason to actualyl drive it back, nothing to take back form the frontline most of the time) and some sort of adjustment to make the early game component gathering for rmats a lot less... well it's basically a very small pie until sledge hammers are unlocked and EVERYONE wants part of that pie. The second and more important thing is some sorta communication from the devs, Yes the dev blog at the end of 2021 said something along the lines of planned Logi changes but other then that, nothing so far.

    Ex-EVE player here. This sort of thing is always awesome to me, where a major portion of the playerbase filling a particular role or roles articulates needed adjustments and changes well, has an open or offers to open a line of communication with the devs & mods, and, when positive changes or communication is not forthcoming in a reasonable timeframe, perform actions that have a marked impact on the game while remaining within the ToS and "spirit" of the game. One of my favorite quotes from a forum post about a massive, negative change to EVE's industry was, "When your game is a spreadsheet, you better not F with the books."

    I'm a new eve player and I'm loving the industry and mining aspect of the game. It may be grindy, the market inflated, and suicide gankers are everywhere, but I can't but love setting up operations somewhere and helping supply a fleet. As time consuming as it can be, at-least the mining and travel requires minimal input. Select two big rocks, align for escape, and go semi afk. Plan some industry, do collegework, come back after 30 minutes, making 6 mil worth of ore. Spend a minute warping back to refinery. There's mining fleets, player owned bases for effective industry, a player run supply and demand market, buy and sell orders, contracts, skills, personal blueprints, null/wh mining, invention, refining, various ores, etc, etc. One can become very rich and influential with the right corp and operation and there's tons of incentive to be effective for your team. Tons of things to build, and for ceo's, a whole corporation mechanic to manage. For contrast in foxhole. You have to hold your mouse over rapidly depleting, over-used scrap piles. Truck them to a refinery. Wait 15 minutes for them to refine. Truck them to a factory that IS PROBABLY IN A DIFFERENT HEX. Waste 30+ minutes getting there. Wait another 30 for all your products to be created. Run out of truck space. Slow boat your way to another hex. Another 30 minutes spent manually driving an annoying twisting road, falling asleep as you have to correct going off the road. Then right before you finally arrive, your truck gets disabled in 3 shots by two dumb asses with basic rifles. They shoot you dead, blow up your truck, and laugh in local. A full hour and 45 minutes wasted for what is effectively 20 minutes of base supplies. While there are more tools and vehicles which make industry faster, its still the same tiring shitty gameplay loop with no variation. A train mechanic would atleast add the possibility for afk travel. Sort of like being able to autopilot in eve.

    someone last night went on all chat and told the logi players to 'come off it' and just 'get back to work' because they weren't going to have an affect. if that was the case, why do people like that feel the need to say that? if it's NOT a problem, and the gameloop is fun then anyone can pick it up (like the person complaining about it) and just do it. and it's fine! Cuz it's FUN TO DO ! right guys?! right?!?! except it isn't, and everyone knows that. even the types of players that enjoy the kind of logistics gameplay, don't like how it's hidden behind hours of grinding. Things you've forgotten to mention. Especially with this new war, the drive times are ridiculous - but typically I can drive from one end of a hex to another with a fully laden (full of supply) truck between 5-6 minutes per hex. given that the closest refineries are about 3 hexes from any front - you're talking about a minimum 15 minute drive (plus player queue waiting at the other end) JUST to deliver from the starting point. Couple that with the way logistics is now, that refining things into bmats and don't get me started on explosive mats, or emats - can take anywhere between half an hour to several hours of scrooping and refining, - you're looking at an end goal of nearly four hours, with drive time, for one good haul of stuff. and what do single logi players get for it? 3 to 4 commends on average. sometimes more, sometimes none. it's an unappreciated job that can all be ruined by some dumbass new guy accidentally walking into enemy lines with a smg, and shooting at the first truck that he comes across. and poof. 4 hours of hard work and planning thwarted by 10 minutes of easier to do partisan work.

    The current events in the war are a fascinating parallel to what's happening in the real world with the supply shortage. You mentioned how the big regiments are largely unaffected, while the smaller regiments and independent players are struggling. This is exactly what is happening in real life as well, companies such as Costco and Walmart are able to rent their own ships, basically forming their own logistics lines, circumventing the supply shortage. Small businesses and individuals are finding it nearly impossible to compete. There's a real concern that, even after the supply shortage is over, it's effects will be with us for a long time. Small businesses are disappearing fast, being replaced by massive companies who are able to weather the shortage. In the same way, I fear this strike will have an unintended similar effect on the independent and small regiment communities. Players are probably going to start migrating to larger regiments, since they are the only ones who can actually supply their members. I still think the strike is a good thing, it's important for EVERYONE to enjoy the game. The current logi system is terrible, and it's telling that 2 groups who have been fighting each other for years are working together for this. But I think it's going to have some unintended consequences, that's for sure.

I work in a games studio with triple digit staff and one month is a long time to release a simple "Okay we hear you and we're thinking on it.", including the time to confirm stuff with all depts involved. Siegecamp is a double digit studio and the only reply they've given so far was "Yes, we've seen the letter." ...alright, and? I also heard that they regularly ban critics on Foxhole Discord.

    As a former logi operator for 82dk, i feel the pain felt by the logistics players. The gameplay loop for logi had been going on a downhill trend by making materials to be more scarce, refineries being far apart from each others and away from the frontlines. There's also a lack of way to send extremely large quantity of materials from the rear to the front using railway system, etc. Foxhole was a mistake.

    Here's an interesting note about the current logi systems. It was completely fine when the World Conquest map was simply 3x3 maps with 2 independent Island maps. Back then, you have to drive 1.5 region length to get into the frontlines which take about 15-30 mins or so. Nowadays, it's common to drive for 2-3 regions before arriving in the region with the active frontlines which take about 45-60 mins, with nothing meaningful to drive back. The biggest issue is that the Devs keep expanding the maps and adding new things that strained the logi without giving out the infrastructures to help logi to deal with large maps and new items.

    Why is it bad that weapons and ammo might be more common? The hardest part of supplying the front is simply the journey time from the salvage yard to the factory or from the factory to the front. The production time in the factories artificially inflates the time required to get weapons and ammo to the front, which makes logistics incredibly hard for people who don't have a shit bucket. Production times should really be instant and crate sizes slightly increased, I mean it is utterly ridiculous that an entire truck of 7.62 crates is only 600 clips (which to put in realworld perspective is only 6000 rounds). You will go through 600 clips in a decent sized battlefield within an hour or two and have to do another 40 minute run just to have fucking rifle ammunition, let alone rifles or anything else. Im thinking at least 1200 or even 2000 clips per truck would be remotely realistic or tolerable. At this point the only groups of people who can feasibly supply a sector are clan logistics, and even they often struggle with it. It used to be so easy to do logistics to the point where a dude and a buddy could keep and entire town supplied with minimal effort. Now you either have to join a clan or suffer.

    Logistics is what drove me away from Foxhole. I hate feeling guilty like i'm somehow harming the team or not contributing just by... actually fighting in a wargame, instead of collecting resources like an RTS worker unit. I don't see why they can't automate parts of this process. Make some computer controlled NPCs who gather the resources automatically when commanded by a player serving as a 'logistics officer', whose role is instead to guard them against attacks and transport the stuff they collect. Isn't transporting the weapons enough of a logistical burden for players to have to do? Between that, medics, and engineering, it seems like there's already plenty of noncombat roles without forcing the players to collect raw materials, which seems to be the most boring and thankless part by far.

    Unless you're bringing 20 clips of ammo in your person, or driving a vehicle into a trench/over a bridge or a tank into a ftiendly mine, it really isn't an issue. Within your 1 hour of play time using up 30 shirts, rifles and a bunch of ammo, the logis have made a lot more within their 10 mins of work. Aside from tanks. Don't waste tanks. This strike is more on how logis are ignored with updates, while there are new tanks, guns, uniforms, etc. every update. Even the engineers got some love with the new trenches and buildings. What do logis get? Truck variants, and random salvage around the map. It's not like we logis are complaining about it being part of the game, logi is fun for the people into it, but we're really left out with the updates.

Regardless of wich happened, all of them were pointed towards logistics as a "how to play". They were instructed and trained on the spot for a position they were unaware that they had been hired to do. However, they weren't looking for a job, they were looking for help. I feel you bro, Noone needs to be gaslighted, guilt tripped, or press ganged into something they don't want to do. PR might cover "issues" with logistics mechanics, but they don't cover the micro society that exists in the game.

    I loved playing logi officer for our shard 2 small clan we cobbled together on the frontlines there it was like being sugar daddy for the group, and once I figured out about stockpiles and making frontline/backline stockpiles it let me apply resources where they needed to go rather then just shove 1000 shirts into a frontline base that quickly became a backline base so we could advance and secure the next location without desperately waiting for the things we needed The only problem is that logi officer is basically a daily job and quickly soaked up my first 100hrs in this game within a week. Staying up all night scrooping for 120mm shells or tanks cuz I was the only guy committed to filling our frontline stockpile early on. I'd have to hop on at certain hours to pick up supplies otherwise they'd disappear into the public stockpiles. Or refresh the timers of all our stockpiles in various places (scrooping zone, manufactory zone and main forward supply hub) it was a lot of work and totally exhausting Made me quit playing foxhole for over 10 wars and now all I can play is frontline or assist backline builders cuz it's a rabbit hole of wasted time I need. I have a new job now, I still wanna be able to do art in my off hours. I can't do that if foxhole is soaking up all my free time off work. I'd just scroop and dump off random trucks of supplies at the fronts, but after playing main logi officer it feels like wasted time dumping supplies in super sub-optimum locations. My small clan has disbanded at this point due to similar burnout and lack of time Love this game, but damn does it demand too much time and mental energy playing logi for me to really play more then just occasionally hop on and die in trenches lol

It took several days of collecting stuff to get ready for an operation, and then several hours to transport everything to the front, and all that for a couple hours of dubious fun. To add insult to injury, the devs have no respect for your work. Your resources time out and are deleted, you can't store and keep your vehicles unless you log in daily, and building queues are insanely long. Nah... I just quit.

We spent a bunch of time building defensive structures along likely avenues of advance behind the front (so that, when the front inevitably shifted against us, there'd be some defenses already set up), and that meant we were also doing out own logistics. Boy I sure do love spending twenty real life minutes driving along winding mountain paths, having to negotiate traffic jams, all so we can build some trenches that get overrun while we're logged out anyway!

    Very informative video, I'd wondered how it ended up being a thing and now i know. Logi in the first day was a frantic clickathon, lots of lads were on the rear lines simply because the cue to the front line was huge, so there was no sudden cessation of logistics on the first day. This war is also very different because of a lack of front-line refineries so I can't make out a difference between this wars logistic supply and the prior ones. And that's it really, i appreciate the info dump about the strike and looking forward to those quality of life updates (I want fuel trucks to hook up and refill from refineries, picking up fuel cans by the trio has become much too tedious.)

    Being a scrapper was so fun when I used to play this game like two years ago. Sitting around for hours diligently mining materials for my faction; getting to know the truck drivers that regularly stopped by your post, and other scrappers that showed up. And then your position gets invaded. It was always so exciting, especially when that popped off and sort of forced you into the fight to protect your spot only to realize higher command just cut off support for the location so now you have to uproot and basically just get entirely a new job. It's like the gameplay itself tells it's own story.

    The fact that there are even less factories and materials makes me think the Devs are aware and are using this as an opportunity to really stress test the logistics system. To really see where the glaring issues are instead of the minor contrivances that really don't change anything substantial. I only really play Foxhole off and on and haven't enjoyed it for the same reason I quit EVE. If you want to do anything you have to do it in an organized group. You can't really do anything solo or as a team of two people.

    The point is that for this game to work. The player-base needs to conduct logistical duties for there side. But 70-90% of players would rather be on the frontlines and ask for weapons, tanks, fuel, etc than help out. Demands that out-weigh production due to long production wait times, scraping and lack of logi players will lead to large shortages. Many players need to realise how important logistics and supplies are.

In the short amount of time I gave so many materials to other players and made over 30+ trucks for transports of all sorts and at the end of my day I looked at my sqaud and saw that I had been commended 744 times in 12 hours! My friends love the game and love seeing there hard work go to players who are happy to have to have the materials. I also heard they made a huge cannon with are materials, I think a storm cannon. So logistics are needed big time. Get your farming sim buddies to join you and they will probably love this game.

    Not much of a commenter, but this video is interesting enough for me to actually want to comment. Now I've been playing foxhole on and off for almost 3 years. Back when the only tank that was a thing were the H-5 and Dewitt tanks, and I started when they actually were added to the game. It's been a fun experience playing foxhole, many moments of "woah" and "darn it!" and I wouldn't give those up for anything. While I can understand someone's frustration with logi today, I don't think people realize how bad the old logi days were at times. No seaports, no stockpile buildings, very few refineries, and factories. To be fair the maps were much much smaller, so the issues weren't that bad. But, I still remember that we needed to use Tech parts to upgrade said factories and refineries to actually make anything. Yes you read that correctly, we had to Tech the actual buildings to do anything. Same with the old garrison system actually, want a level 2 Garrison? tech parts. The game has gotten a lot more fleshed out and more fun to play as a whole, as someone who has practically done everything the game has to offer, it's still quite the fun experience. Scrooping, is a a bit tedious, but sometimes the quiet nature of doing it is preferable to the, at times, frustrating fighting that can happen or takes place up in the front lines. Mostly from people not quite able to work together, or being disheartened by losing ground you fought very hard for, only to lose it in a couple of hours. But that's what makes foxhole a persistent war simulator of a game, it isn't a static war that never moves. And after scrooping, crafting, and delivering supplies, I can appreciate the simple and straight forward thing that logi can provide someone, when someone is trying to be helpful, but doesn't want to be in the thick of the action.. yet. A bit of a long writing, but I hope to whoever reads this that, as an old vet of the game. I understand the frustrations, I have had those frustrations many times, and if you want to do what your doing to try and improve the game, well go for it. But as MoiDawg has said in this video, there are some changes that cannot be done. Either because of the balancing issues or simply because some changes would require the game to go through a massive revamp. Which would take literal years. Keep that in mind, if only to understand that there's only so much the devs can do. I am still looking forward to the new stuff the devs got cooking though, whatever new features, vehicles, and ideas they got brewing up. Well the foxhole's devs have done a well to satisfy my concerns and desires over these years, versus disappointing me. So I'll keep scrooping, refining, building, fighting, and winning wherever i can, so long as the game lets me do so. LT. Hishamori, of foxhole.

On the 3 or so days the logihub I was at was filled with Clan men and a couple low ranks but now all I see are a few Clan men. I myself haven't been doing logi now apart from to commend farm (not receive commends but commends to give out) for a bit. There've been some clans who only have 1 guy doing logi to that frontline and they're the only person doing so. I think we just have to wait a bit and as the war goes on the effects will become more evident. Edit: I logged on today and saw 4 clan men and 3 random dudes (including me) in the region. No one was at the Logi Hub (I had gone on to refresh my stockpile as it had stuff I needed for a quick guide I'm filming).

    Back then when theres only a single big map, you could singlehandedly make one tank for yourself and hid it somewhere in the safe area and rode it in times when our faction has gotten overrun. Or even building a secret outpost for yourself or your team, stockpiling weapons and items made by your own hands. Then you can contribute yourself as logi after building your first truck and get praised by the Frontline peoples for stockpiling respawn mats on the frontline outpost or the city halls. Good times, good times.

    As an EX logistics (I last played in Foxhole in war 85), I feel for these guys, I spent hours on end scrooping, I even had some regiment guys (I was always a pubber) on my team throw grenades at me and several other Logi players because we couldn't keep up with demand and their section of the Frontline couldn't even respond because we had to supply an even more embattled section of the frontline. I really hope this opens the eyes of Frontline players of just how bad logistics can be to play, because when we say "hey there's a 20 man squad right outside of town, and they have a towed AT gun and tank, can you please deal with them?!" And we get told to just grab a rifle and kill them ourselves, and "oh we need artillery shells, grenades, and ammo, right now, or we're going to lose" while the entire convoy that was supposed to deliver that now has to try and figure out a way to kill a tank (it ended up being 2 tanks because they stole another tank from the depot of our own frontline) with some rifles and a bunch of boxes.

    I'm new player with shit pc, i enjoy doing logi and scrooping beside my regiment are doing base building management. The problem i had in this game was 1. so many frontline player use flatbed and truck and lock it at the abandoned base or unused base, either it near refinery,factory,shipyard or scavaging area. it is suck when you had to do scrooping but cant find any harvester or any flatbed to store many materials in single deliver (because no one wont do it) and sometimes there is some idiot guy who lock their vehicle at strategic road way holy shit. 2. The queue to use Refinery and factory are shit, imagine having tons of bmats and store it to factory and some idiot produce it for a god damn 6.62mm ammo. The coordination beetween each player are none in this game, and i swear for the first time i do the scrapping some veteran player saying to me "get down don't use that truck with bmats inside" and then he lock it like wtf Dude 3. BORING SHIT, when you scrapping all the time and cant see any action. And then you travel for god damn long journey, missing a crossroad checking a god damn map and having your fucking scavaging field are empty. For the comparison, i really enjoy do logi thing but when i can do sniping at frontline i would choose it

    To be honest i really like the concept of transporting raw materials to factories and later equipment to the frontline and that u can disrupt all that with partisan operations is just mind blowing. What i could live without is scrooping. Standing in a field pushing a mouse button hammering away is just trash game design. Just make it automatic with designated facilities that are upgradeable for late game needs. But let them be susceptible to partisan operations of course and work only when the area is under friendly occupation.

I don’t play much because the game is very heavily clan-oriented (and my clan has had very skittish attendance), but I applaud the logi players who are taking the time to play non-logi roles in this war. Their actions are opening a lot of eyes to the un-fun gameplay loop that is logistics to a wider portion of the general populace.

It was a great way for players to earn money and be productive for their faction in odd hours but they changed it and limited the activity to a specific logi role within the factions so basically everyone got broke on supplies to the point of not even having pistol ammo anymore. It was a huge clusterfuck.
