sorry if my english can be broken
This player is absolutely right, the developers should listen to him.
1- I’ve been playing War Thunder almost every day since 2017 and I love the game, but lately I’ve noticed that although the developers do a pretty good job overall, they make some questionable decisions. Personally, I would like them to do an update with improvements only, because many of the improvements or fixes they make don’t make any difference, they’re not important, or they introduce other bugs. For example, with the drones, they added the ability to spot from the drone, so more players just stay at spawn doing nothing the entire match. The drones need a nerf, like making them have fuel or, in the most extreme case, removing them altogether, because it’s frustrating to use your brain in the game, to plan a strategy, to use your intelligence, and then have someone just sit at spawn the whole match doing nothing but spotting, and with drones that are hard to shoot down even with missiles. You might say it’s realistic, but it’s a game, it needs to be fair. Sadly, for those who have been playing for less than 3 months and demand more realism, it is realistic that drones have fuel or batteries; that’s fair. That way they would use the drone when they need it, not the whole match, and it would make them contribute to the victory or defeat. That’s one example.
- Another is the ease of spawn camping in tanks, since it seems like you’re at a disadvantage at your spawn. There are maps that could be fixed by moving a couple of rocks and making the enemy expose themselves to shoot at the spawn, and by adding permanent spawn protection for the first few minutes of the match to prevent early spawn camping. I don’t think it’s fair that the enemy can go to your spawn in the first 5 minutes without capturing any points, because they know you’re at a disadvantage, since you have to move to shoot at them, while they can just sit there and shoot at you. That’s for tanks.
2-Now, for planes, here’s a video that explains it all, so I don’t have to say everything I want to say about props: https://youtu.be/_QcL9yeCYKs?si=jTD22pF2gxlkPjRK. Now, for jets, I don’t have much experience with jets; I have the JAS 39 Thai… The Japanese F16 and 11.0 in Germany, little experience but enough to know it’s okay but boring and repetitive in my opinion, it’s 3 minutes of matches going in a straight line dodging a couple of missiles to die or do nothing in the match and if you’re lucky you shoot down someone without much effort, like that constantly, it’s not very engaging or addictive, you just play to improve the vehicle and use it in tanks battles or use it in custom matches with friends, that’s my complaint with jets now.
3-Ships need a rework, everything is bad, the good thing is that the models are well done, the bad thing is boring gameplay and captures that you can’t capture because you’re so exposed that you get killed, so it’s not worth it, little reward per match and horrible maps made for the small boat mode not for large ships.
4-Now CAS, I think in WW2 it’s balanced but it would be good that like with ships, with the planes they give you during matches, it would be good that instead of planes in tanks they give you anti-aircraft, for those who don’t have anti-aircraft or don’t have very advanced anti-aircraft so you’re not with a Wibewind at 12.0, so your team has the special ability to defend against planes no matter what, since it’s not fun to be winning a match and have destroyed the entire enemy team and only 2 planes destroy your entire team and you can’t do anything because you don’t have good anti-aircraft and for planes that can be shut down by missiles at long range, if you don’t have a Pantsir or something OP you can’t do anything, and the other thing is balancing the SAMs, I mean if a SAM is very good, it should be the same for the other team, if a SAM has 20 kilometers, another one should have the same, it doesn’t happen like that, what happened to me in the last update, I played with Russia I could fly, I played with Japan or Germany I couldn’t fly because there was no Pantsir on my team and that meant suffering from Russian CAS without being able to respond, if my allies brought out planes they were shot down before they could do anything and if they brought out anti-aircraft the enemies were already at spawn or the enemy CAS was already responding and they moved and… The planes kept coming back and destroying everyone in the match, which wasn’t fun. That’s why it would be better to have a balance where you can use a plane to destroy enemy planes and help your team to deal with the enemy cas, and where your team also has SAM and AA systems to help if they don’t have one or have already used theirs.
end-I don’t know what else to say, but the game should make some changes to the maps, mechanics, and how they release updates. I’m getting tired of the updates; they used to be better. I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been playing this game for so long, or if everything has just gotten worse.
