Lately, War Thunder has been declining due to a variety of issues — from perceived Russian bias to slow updates, unbalanced vehicles, and poor game mode adjustments (lack of decompression). Now, it seems the developers are more focused on monetization than gameplay quality (becoming less masculine).
I’m curious — what ideas do you have to improve the game? Please share your thoughts below! I’ll compile everyone’s MOST LIKED suggestions into a follow-up post where we can vote on the best ideas. ***** !! I will post the poll this weekend!! *****
Yep, fix the players, not the game… Right now there’s a LOT of pent up anger and rage at the game and other players… It’s just a bad thing through and through that people have fed into.
This is easily done by Gaijin telling everyone that you get more rewards the longer you’re in match.
ODL is primarily people that incorrectly think you get more rewards in quick matches than longer matches when the opposite is true.
Yeah, but it would be nice to have a combined, aka what ground is right now, and a mode with only ground and no air so those who are upset, like me, can get a break from one cap plane spawners
To be fair, if you monetize a game by making the grind frustrating, it’s no surprise players get angry and burned out. The whole system would need a complete overhaul to fix that but let’s be honest, that’s never going to happen.
It’s the expectation that they’re going to be rewarded no matter what.
It’s like that sugegstion to make wins and losses more aligned so they’d all get rewards… And that move, made it so no-one gave a crap about the teams or the game entirely, it was then all about grinding as fast as they could.
Now that, is where the ODLs started becoming a thing.
Yup, that’s kinda the point. The whole system’s built this way to frustrate player, Gaijin keeps fixing the problems, not the cause. What it really needs is a whole new system.
The system won’t change the way the player fails, and by pandering to the player in that instance they ruined a lot more than what they made ‘better’.
It’s the fixation made by focusing on how hard and bad it is, that makes more think it’s bad because they heard it was bad, so everybody agrees that it’s bad, then when someone highlights how it’s not, they get derided and attacked by the sheer mass who think that their suggestion will fix everything because that’s what they all tell each other.
Nah, just fix the players… That’s all we need to have.
The ammount of rage that comes from people even spawning planes is actually a problem, and it’s not the planes that causes this… It’s players, being silly about the game as a whole.
If you want to fix the planes, then call for better SPAA and other options other than removal of things to allow peopel to keep ignoring the threat and constantly making out it’s so bad.
The boogyman Yak9 isn’t a very effective vehicle when you call it out to the team, and shoot it down.
That’s not why at all, people claim that all the time, but it’s genuinely because I don’t think that people should be given a mode for themselves to AVOID the threat the rest of us face…
It’ll only encourage more blinkers on play, false confidence in thier abilities and just unfair progression because of the difference in risk and attention needed.
Literally, dumbing the game down, to save your K/D because you can’t handle the game as it is.
