The most important thing they could do to save RB would be to finally write dedicated code for it. Its the most popular game mode and after all these years that should have been taken care of. This would result in much fewer mods running, much less effective CAS and much fairer games.

Literally fighting a KV-1 with 75mm solid shot.
„Wtf am I supposed to do? My AP round penetrates armor but can’t kill a tank without getting killed in return.“
the game is cooked
In top tier the balance is on tanker’s side, 90sp OP SAMs
this is a strawman. youre just ignoring whatever arguments players may present. Also the picture just reduces the whole argument to “stupid players doing stupid things moan about the consequences of their actions”, CAS is a thing that you can do little against if you dont have an SPAA, and even if you do, half of the vehicles have a low effectiveness. And you may reduce it to skill issue, but planes can kill you quickly and from angles you cant cover (Some players kill their engines so they can have a stealth kill, or just use guided missiles launched from the stratosphere). The thing with CAS is that its become the main way to get easy kills, since ground battles (and all of the game for that matter) has been reduced to a glorified team deathmatch, and for that reason players are just going to use the best way to get kills. CAS could be kept as is if the gamemodes were varied, for example, a mode where one must defend a base against the enemy team. The base would have bot SPAA. Or maybe a mode where one must destroy several points. Or a mode with only SPAA and planes, something like “Assault Airbase” (This one may actually be fun) The game is just stale at this point, most people are trying to farm kills, and most of these kills come from CAS.

Indeed. It is. If only there was something called world war mode they tested in the past that could have seen some form of implementation.
And every time you check their profile their vehicles with the most kills are ALL planes. Like the entire page is planes.
Then you spawn SPAA only for the corner chair lover to spawn a backup.

Ground AB is infinitely worse. The sniper maps in RB are bad, but when you can just see who is coming when and where to aim down a sightline it’s just garbage. At least its system for planes is kind of good.
Defend the community all you want but at the end of the day gaijin proposed an actually good change (APHE nerfs) and the community threw a fit because they didn’t want their broken button to be slightly less broken. The community is genuinely full of dumbasses and people who continue to enable gaijin’s genuine developer incompetence by giving them money for premiums. The cycle is never going to end because war thunder players are crows who just soy over the next new premium.
exaclty, like why even play GRB if you just gonna use planes/jets.

I’ve only recently started playing this game and chose to play Germany. I unlocked all the top-tier tanks because I heard they have a strong tank, so I wanted to play that one. However, I saw that the Leopards were weakened and considered a weak tank, and I easily realized this as I played the game. Therefore, I chose to play Russia, and I found that I was more successful there. Even though many players say it’s a skill issue, Russian tanks are more durable, and it’s a place where new players like me can easily get at least 3-4 kills per match. I like the Leopards; they’re good tanks, but they don’t really show that in the game. I also don’t understand why they were weakened.
Therefore, I think I wasted time and money grinding the German tree. I think I would have enjoyed the game more if I had ground the Russian tree when I first started. That’s what I want to do right now anyway. I’m just giving my opinion as a new player.
Disagree completely.
I have played really only 3 Leopards, but all have been an enjoyable experience (PT-16, Leopard 2K, and Leopard I). They are honestly great, and while I am an absolutely abysmal ground RB player, I can have fun in these tanks and occasionally do well. I don’t think anyone really thinks the Leopards are weak at all.
I’m not an experienced player and I won’t compare how things used to be to how they are now, but you’ll see players using Russian vehicles mocking other players and saying they have skill issues in the game. On the other hand, when I first started playing with my German main character and throughout the game, I experienced that Leopards are significantly weaker than other tanks. Therefore, I chose the Russian tree, and there I can hunt down tanks more easily. I’m not saying Leopards are the worst, but I noticed they weakened over time, and you can see announcements about it. What I really want to say is that even if your tank is strong, in ground combat with Germany, whether you choose CAS or tank, you feel how weak it is, even with the best formation. Since I got the new Russian premium tank BMPTS72, I can easily hunt down other players with just one tank. I don’t understand those who say “skill issues.”
