While we are all aware That the Abrams in game has a bunch of problem the devs will likely never fix, the biggest problem they have are the ones not in the tec tree The M1a1 Aim and Clickbait and the players that use them.
I challenge anyone to load into a top tier match as the US rn and have more than half your team be actual top tier players in the SEP and not clickbaits being played by someone who has no business being in a tank 0.3 br away from top tier.
Worse yet its the only high playerbase nation that has an 11.7 tank on sale rn so all the new player are being funneled into the US team in fact its the only nation with both a 10.7 and 11.7 tank on sale.
It feels like the devs have chosen to focus more on milking new players preference for the US team over the actual health of the game itself. i know its been like this for a long time but the longer it goes on the more good players leave the team and the worse the wr gets.
And dont think air br top tier is safe either we just saw them test the waters with an 13.3 squad jet for China, its only a matter time before the devs start milking air rb noobs with 13.3 prems and making that unplayable too.
EDIT: Heres my solution to the problem since a tec tree player needs to have 5 rank 6 tanks to own rank 7 ones it should also apply to buying prems as well.
US was lost when they introduced pantsir.
the clickbait has done far more damage to the us winrate than the pantsir ever could. since the pansir is useless if the team is dead before they can spawn a single plane.
Skill issue
shouldn’t have buy premium when they don’t know how to plays
couldn’t even at least not being deadweight
ok u right
Yes because God forbid that the other nations have something to fight against the broken US CAS
oh yes ofc ofc
I cannot even tell you how many times I’ve seen Nations that don’t have pantsir in their team get obliterated by US cas And even when they do have pantsir it’s still not very difficult to overwhelm the vehicle
I play pantsir and I play against pantsir as well and I can tell you right now if you are not 100% paying attention and sweating your ass off you’re going to get shafted by US cas
yeah, and SU-25SM3 that outrange any SPAA only bring jet to kill them is that fair by your standard?
most of the times they can’t even spawn before getting rekt thanks to clickbait lol
I don’t know what exactly you mean by this I don’t think I ever said that Russia or some other nation doesn’t have some stupid powerful cas
But in Context that I was saying doesn’t justify the US having one of the best CAS lineups in the game
Why is everyone so hooked on win rate? Everyone keeps going off about oh this nations win rate that nations win rate. I dont care if my team wins or looses as long as im having fun.
Yes higher tier premiums have had a poor impact on wins in a match along with some new people causing issues with not knowing what they are doing. Here is the thing… Gaijin doesnt care about win rates for nations. If they did they would be more transparent with this kind of information. You know what they do care about though?? Money… New people want to skip the grind and get right to the top and well the best selling premium tanks?? Abrams.
If your unhappy stop playing the only time that any real changes are when they start loosing money, but with new people seeing the CC having fun, they are at least going to spend 100 to 200 to get into war thunder. Will they stay? probably not, and honestly the new player retention is probably low.
Look here I understand that the US is in bad spot when it comes to ground but you also have to understand that it’s just how the game Cycles I mean few years ago when leopard 2a5 and 6 got added you literally couldn’t play top tier Russia It just how the game works
Because win gives more reward
Tbf they immediately nerfed the 2a6 after like 1 month (increasing reload). They also played around with buffing Russian K-5 ERA so that it could withstand DM53 so it wasn’t that bad after the first month or so.
You can’t? during that time Russia have KA-52 T-80U T-90A and T-72B3 while German have only one tanks with high pen round during that time it still playable during that time just don’t mindlessly run into L/55 gun shooting DM53 without second thought
Well also the big reason why people look at win rate is they have a skill issue most of the times and they just want to justify their skill issue on oh it’s not me it’s the nation or particular vehicle
The Ka-52 was an absolute menace back then. The single most broken vehicle in top tier.
I can remember trust me it was more than just one month
