NATO forces cannot win a SINGLE game against 12.7 Russia GRB

I just registered 18 losses in a row against 12.7 Russia in GRB, over 3 days straight. The only wins I got were when I actually played along with Russia.

It’s a combination of BMPT/72s / russian unpenetrable MBTs rushing your spawns + Su-30MK2 AMV and LMURs spams. Always the same pattern.

Playing 12.7 as a NATO force against Russia is not even fun or challenging anymore, you just get rushed at your spawn in less than 3 minutes, die, and loose 9 out of 10 12.7 games. It is NOT enjoyable.

So when I squad up, I often have my friend play the Russian tech tree.

This game is so freaking biased towards Russia, it’s not even enjoyable anymore.

Honestly, take a break from 12.7. Pop down to 8.7 to 9.3 for some spectacularly good matches where you can legitimately influence the outcome. I’ve been having so much fun spading a bunch of vehicles in that BR range that I kind of rushed through to get to the high tier stuff. Japan is quite fun and I’ve gotten 4 Israeli nukes at 8.7 in the past week.

There’s your problem - there’s a lot more to “NATO” than France young fella’.

Did you notice i’m not talking about my gameplay and my results ?

I’m saying the whole team looses each time it fights Russia at 12.7. I’m not alone in the team bro

I’m forced to do this, but I don’t like the idea of Russia dominating the most modern battles ingame without competitive NATO counterparts.

My take is: Relax—games are meant to be fun.

The friend I often squad up with once got so mad at War Thunder that he punched his computer screen to pieces.#In the physical sense

The game is not fun if you don’t play Russia. You just suffer.

Getting to top tier Russia would take another +1000 hours, or 90 euros worth of premiums.

In another words, I can’t have fun on this game anymore. After 1300 hours, I’m simply thinking about uninstalling and moving on.

Speaking from ground forces alone, I have unlocked the Chinese, Russian, Swedish, Italian, and Japanese tech trees. The Russian tech tree is undeniably strong—there’s no disputing that—but honestly, I find it boring.

In China, we often joke that playing the Russian/Soviet tech tree means you can just press W to win.

True that

There’s an interesting story, and the protagonist is, once again, that friend of mine who punched his computer screen. Because of this game, his originally pro-Rus stance has shifted to a pro-Ukr one.

It’s okay, high tier is basically “Cope Central” for Russian vehicles.

The thing is, Gaijin isn’t even hiding its preference for the USSR anymore. With every new patch, Gaijin keeps giving the USSR more and more OP stuff, while other nations get nothing even close in terms of capabilities.

What will happen when everyone switches to the USSR? We’ll have end credits and the caption “Victory of Socialism over Imperialism.”

Are you saying that the idealized, righteous Soviet Union triumphed over the imperialist Soviet Union of the actual Cold War?

Did I misunderstand that?
