You could always bring up that someone currently is not playing WT rather than join in discussion of opinions ;)
Nevertheless, I will always work to ensure that his words have a place here.
Just today some people have made it their mission to make my words disappear here… basically no one is forced to like what the other person writes. It is just as important that someone else can say that they find it inappropriate.
In the end, it is important that both can remain standing.

You’re not alone, there. I have some salty stalkers myself whose heads I live rent-free in, and they’ve been working to try to get me banned from the forums. The attention is flattering.

Well we can see somebody admitting to it on this topic and we can see the amount of my posts flagged in this discussion. Hardly surprising little gets changed by this forum.
I shudder to think of the mental damage I must be doing every time I kill somebody in the game. Are they having a full mental breakdown each time they lose a life?

It’d be funnier if they were, honestly.

So true bro
Nothing will change for tank players with changes You want to propose.
TO is the solution which will give everyone what they want.

I agree that there could be consequences and that is something worth taking into consideration for sure. Yep, nobody want to give likes to an arrogant nasty ass hat ,can’t argue that but I do think so many take disagreement as a personal insult. I just think we have too many kids who have never heard the word no. I also think we have this silly notion that we are either pro or anti CAS and after three years I am neither. I am not the Non flying anti CAS person I used to be but I still see the game destroying issues CAS can bring…
If you asked me prior to playing the game if the kill cam was a good fit I probably would have said no, but I think removing it would turn the learning curve for new players into a cliff. If it’s only an issue with CAS, there’s ways to balance CAS around the killcam (airspawn, etc.) without throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
It’s an option, but then I (hypothetical player) will need to remember what I was doing at the time, map state, all the stuff that instant feedback really helps with. I think a lot of that will get lost if it’s all delivered at the end.
The “where you got shot from” and “what you got shot by” are pretty critical for not getting killed the same way over and over. I’m not saying it’s realistic, just that it will make things much more difficult to learn if delivered after the fact, and with a negligible impact on tank vs tank.

Then how about also making server replays more easily accessible
I mean I’m always down for easy UI/UX improvements without any drawbacks from Gaijin but I also want a toilet made of gold.
It should show only the direction the shell came from and the player’s name & vehicle responsible. No shell flight path to your dead tank. No snapshot showing where your killer was.
I think the issue is that an experienced player will be able to intuit the omitted information pretty well. Also forcing new players to remember the word salad of vehicle names (instead of “long gun, wheels, turret”) is pure pain. Lemme just find, read, and parse “Radkampfwagen 90 TAM 2C” or “15cm sIG 33 B Sfl” (along with the ammo!) before those roll off the bottom of the death notifications.
EDIT: Also based on how the killcam shows the destroyed vehicle, I bet there’s some tech implementation monsters lurking as far as saving them to be shown later.
Giving a TO mode to those who don’t want CAS interference and allowing current GRB continues unmolested. Pure almost AI like logic. No nerfing of the current game that many enjoy and no CAS issues whatsoever.
Sorry I can only think in terms of logic. I have no personal attachment to this, no butt hurt and I’m willing to listen to why that won’t work from Gaijin.
Does this Anton guy who owns Gaijin not want WT to irradicate its main opposition WoT ? Why would that not appeal? Why would you not have an interest in this if you were a shareholder in Gaijin?

I don’t get why some people still refuse to accept that TO will solve most of the issues for combined mode as all people who just want to play tanks will not play it, thus teams will overall be better in terms on fighting aka combined style.

No I don’t ,as you have said you fly and I fly .There is no anti CAS hate here at all.I dont want any more SP hits on CAS.
And I don’t want any more nerfs which are not needed.
Maybe after another 10 years some players will finally understand that we are playing the same gameplay over and over again with the same nerfs/buffs.

I think increasing the spawn distance for CAS would accomplish the same, while being acceptable to many people. No Killcam is a big change, with a lot of collateral, for the small effect of removing revenge bombing. I mean, they were gonna bomb somebody weren’t they? Only issue with revenge is people take it personally.
Which is true in a tank-tank combat. Not so in tank-air combat.
You went on a completly different thing, than my answer was, but okay.
And interestingly there is no such thing in Air matches…
Yeah, back to this nonsense.
If you would have any reasonable argument, you would have already used that. Yet you did not.
It is easier to “deal” with CAS in AB, yet it is still just annihilates tanks.
I know. I get killed by it, and i also use it to give back some to CAS users. And it is by far the easiest was of killing tanks. And this is despite the lead indicator that everyone has.
There is a reason why they go for the “you play AB reeeee” crying, because they have nothing else.
If someone has a reasonable and good argument, they will use it, yet they have not used anything like that, just whine about me not playing in RB.
How? How can i do anything with many tanks?
How man i hide with a big, slow, open top, that can be killed by even the worst MG in the game?
That is just not possible.
You made the suggestion f suing SPAA, or a plane.
Well, for 1, to use any of them, i first have to die with my first vehicle, which is in that case usually to CAS. Even if i grant you for the sake of the argument, that with either SPAA or fighter i can deal with the planes, please answer my question!
Does that change the fact, that my tank got destroyed in a way, that i had no real chance to fight back?
This would be understandable if i got to do at least somethign with them, but often, i get CAS’d after a single kill if i use an open top, or thinly armored vehicle.
Does it change the fact, that time and time again i can do nothing in the battle with the vehicle i want to play, because some players are just too trash to engege me in a fair fight, and have to get an unfair mechanic to kill me?
And again, all this is if the methods you suggested are viable. The issue is, that they are NOT.
SPAA? Yeah, most of the times any even remotely skilled CAS enjoyers will annihilate your SPAA? or just ignore it and stay out of your effective range.
Fighters? The only effective way, but you have to grind a second tech tree to get them. Also you have to learn another skill set, because fighting planes with a plane takes skill, unlike fighting tanks with a plane.
Hiding? There are not many places you can reliably hide from planes, and most of them are tunnels, so unless there are enemy tanks, you will not do anything.
Just like any of the changes after the boycotts. Any many such similar situations.
Does it mean it is not needed? Nope.
The issue here is the main one. Money. Many CAS enjoyers have premium CAS, and the implementation of TO would just destroy the “mixed” mode, so all those premium CAS users would cry rivers, as well as the TT users, tho they have less “value” in Gaijin’s eyes.
It is not a powerup. It is just a cheap tool for bad players.
Again, does it change the fact, that it can easily destroy my tank when i can do basically nothing?
Exactly.
It’s true period…a defeat is a defeat. It’s only as easy as you let it be.
Also, lol’d at getting another notification about your pst from a week ago…again trying to blame tankers who fly for your post getting flagged. 🙄
Have you considered it could be anyone since your way of replying is bulky and makes a literal wall?
I didn’t resort to flagging your post but others may have and spoilering your post would be polite to everyone else.

My bad, I guess you dont think they would even need scouting to be added either. So vehicles with zero use can be added.
If you want to open the door for vehicles with zero use in certain gamemodes, go ahead. Dont complain when you end up having to grind a vehicle you cant use in arcade.
