I made a proposal to fix that Изменить видимость трассеров при виде от 1 лица - Принято к рассмотрению - War Thunder — официальный форум but they fixed it slightly only for your shells.

if they looked on the comments given here during dev-server was open GJ could get a idea about the players vote on the aimbot - even then they could have start some communication with the player on the forum like they did on other changes. But sadly nothing - naval players in this forum are completely ignored.

Thank you very much for coming over to the English side of the forums to help bring attention to the issues. There sometimes seems to be a disconnect between Russian and English in the communication with the Developers. Much appreciated, cheers.
Heya friend, the mods want English only on this side of the forums. You can just run your post through Google Translate first, even if the translation is not perfect, we can still understand you well 🙂
EDIT #1: You can just copy + paste your screenshots into the forums here. No need to upload them to a website first. If you cannot CTRL+C and CTRL+V , just save your screenshot to your computer, then you can drag and drop it here into your forum post.
EDIT #2: I would strongly recommend that you refrain from using offensive language and/or making any sort of “threats” about quitting the game, or trying to convince other players to stop playing. Very likely that your posts will get deleted and no one will be able to read your arguments any more. I want as many Naval players to have their opinions heard as possible, so I do not wish for your posts to be deleted.
Translation of your first post:
This is what happens when you change something without knowing and without having a clue… just to piss off those of us playing…
5 vs 5 players… and the rest are bots…
The first on my team got 5000 points of damage, I finished 2nd with 540 points, the third with 372 points, and the 4th and 5th with less than 100 points of damage.
The first one got those points because he killed two boats…
The shots miss and don’t hit a single one, and on top of that, it won’t let you correct the shot because some re****ed [offensive language censored] person thought it would be a good idea to change something. I guess it’s just to be annoying. [Insult deleted].
It’s a shame I can’t upload a picture because it’s a spectacle. If there were already so few of us on ships that you have to use bots, I imagine that the games will now be bots vs. bots… CONGRATULATIONS CHAMPIONS…
Let’s see if we’re lucky enough to see the image. I hope they fire the genius who decided on those changes. It’s a shame we don’t all leave the game, because that would be the right thing to do. Every day you make it harder and more complicated to play. On top of that, you boast that they give away more money now… MY HOLY B*LLS… Up until 3 days ago, I was making 100-300k in money per game… now, even if you give 100000000M to whoever kills an enemy, I suppose you’ll have a better chance of winning the lottery.

Translation of your second post:
I almost forgot. Not to mention that bots now shoot at you from 7 km away when you take out a plane. They shoot you with their cannon and proximity bullets and kill you.
That’s not even considering that a Z15 can shoot at you from 10 km away. I’m attaching a photo so you can see it clearly. As I said, I was the only one in the air, and those shots were coming at me.
I don’t know if it’s clear, but the Z15’s shots were aimed at me.
Crying and complaining won’t achieve anything, but now that they’ve taught me how to post, I’m going to [censored word] them. [Vague sentence about not playing the game anymore deleted]

The question is:
Will the developers do something about we Naval AB players not wanting it? The decision has been made?
If the answer is "no changes will be made "the change is here to stay, I ask for forum topic to be locked.
Locking the discussion doesn’t make a lot of sense. What is the reasoning behind your request? It’s a legitimate topic, that a lot of people are weighing in on. If the bar for locking topics is “Gaijin doesn’t listen,” you might as well delete most topics.

They aren’t dedicating many resources to naval. That’s clear. If they think making it even worse is going to draw more players, I don’t hold out a lot of hope for naval in general. It’s not like a lot of us were playing to begin with.

Oh well, I tried to warn you about posting in any language other than English on the English language forums. Cheers.
My final post about the new Naval Arcade aiming+changes. I will not be posting any further on the topic as there is nothing else to say. I am 100% over even trying Naval Arcade now:

That is correct. Gaijin hates us and will make sure we suffer.

It’s kind of infamous how little the devs care about or listen to the playerbase but at least there’s been some feedback to ground and air complaints in the past… even just cosmetic ones like when they first added the darkened effect around the aircraft guns when firing. At first they went way too dark way too fast and everyone complained that it looked awful (which it did). So the devs actually changed it. We’ve had our game mode ruined entirely and the devs haven’t responded at all. At least if they just said “tough” to us I’d at least know they’ve read our complaints even if they don’t want to do anything about it.
The only times, really, the devs properly listen to us is when there are riots, like those which lead to the roadmap, which was probably the best thing that’s ever happened to this game. Or when we rioted over the pay for consumables or the free abrams thing.
I’m still not sure whether it was malace or incompetence that compelled them to make such a drastic change without asking the community for feedback, or conducting some limited testing with us first to see what we think, similar to how they did the test event and gathered feedback for changing “The missile is launched” text in air battles.
And the bugs, if it is a bug, I’m not sure since as far as I know the devs haven’t said one way or the other, but the AI AA gunners things sniping planes and coastal boats from 10km away. How did anyone think that’s a good idea? If it is a bug how did it make it to the live server? Did Gaijin even test their naval changes? Do they even play their own game? How did it go unnoticed? Why haven’t they responded to us? The dev server with the changes on opened on the 28th February, just over a month ago, and the complaints started right away. It must be malace, I don’t believe you can accidentally ignore your whole Naval Arcade community for a month. Feedback from the devs over the tank turret basket thing which only affects a couple vehicles, but complete silence over the naval changes which has ruined the whole mode.
I guess the only way really to make them listen is to just not play until they change it back. Are they gonna look at their spreadsheets in a month from now and see the number of players has dropped, check here to see what happened, and find that nobody liked their changes? Aside from a small handful and you-know-who who spams every thread about it and resorts to personal attacks and accusations.

Tbh i haven’t forgotten, ive just had a lot going on elsewhere
Came here to start a thread about exactly this. I played the NEW arcade mode today and it is the single worst war thunder experience I’ve ever had.
I cannot see how these changes are good for the game mode in terms of gaining new players or retaining old. For me, a long time fan of the mode, its now virtually unplayable.
As others have said, the new aiming system is only useful against bots and noobs as anyone changing course is immune to incoming fire. This resulted in one match where all players sailed around unable to hit eachother until the timer ran out. I sampled realistic to see if this could be my new jam but unfortunately this was also quite sinfully boring.
Please please please, return naval arcade to its previous model as honestly, I’m unlikely to play it in it’s current state as well as the other people i regularly game with. It is now a dead mode for me.
