I believe it was started by the Terminator.

Personally, i think being a free game it will be hard to ban every cheater, especially from the main two problematic communities as they arent really one off cheaters. Ive saw it in other games so no doubt war thunder is the same in which they do it organised. They have so many accounts that as soon as one is banned they switch to the next.

My personal recommendation for things to be better for almost everyone is to remove server selection option all together (like practically every single online matchmaking game has) and add more server locations (like east eu and west eu) and have it auto search in that region. Its completely pointless having a server selection option for eu when the majority of the time, i feel like i may actually be the only eu player in the match. And following this the Netcode is utterly horrendous for WT so doesnt know what to do against high ping players, leading to a way worse experience for playing playing on the correct server.

Imo it started with the 2s38. Its easier to cheat with aimbot with it because it has way better range and can pennetrate mbts.

The SA server is not the most stable.

Im in Japan and the SA server has been giving me 450ping with 30+%PL like 40% of the time. US gives me a constant 250 with 10% PL.

Gaijin can’t do anything but a cease and desist, and good luck getting a website hosted in China to agree to a C&D lol.

They seem to gravitate towards anything that is considered OP as the victims of their cheating will tend to write it off as OP vehicle rather than cheater.

yeah I’m in Australia, Even when SA is giving lower ping the PL is usually way higher then other servers and even when it’s low vehicles rubber band all over the place, it’s highly unstable.

I believe that was why they wanted to change the TOS to allow them to delete these accounts.

No, what I mean is an excess of toptier premium (and M1A2T for some reason) cheaters have been filling the matches, I presume cause people were getting fed up with the terminator.

If the SA servers were stable, I’d be fine with — even in favor of — filtering. But honestly, aren’t the SA servers pretty much dead right now? When Japanese players try to connect, the lag is so bad it feels unnatural, so of course people gradually stopped playing on them.
Also, I’d appreciate it if you didn’t just group us all together as ‘Asians’ in such a broad way.
