New Content Besides Just Vehicles?

Been playing since 2014. Game is awesome. Still is. Yet, I can’t really see a reason to support the game anymore. Why add more vehicles to the hundreds that already exist when many of them are unplayable because of:

1) BR compression. Its the main source of War Thunder rot. It makes many vehicles non-starters as they are completely noncompetitive in an up-tier. This is especially relevant in Air RB with amazing/iconic vehicles like the F-16A somehow being trash thanks to their BR range. It is also most noticeable with heavy tanks in early cold war eras. MAUS vs. IS-4 was a reason to play the game. New players have no idea what I’m talking about. Ground RB has never been better than that time. That’s 10 years of no improvement in game-play…

If you don’t believe me, pull a vehicle that used to be Top Tier that you played when it was Top Tier. You’ll find the experience is always now worse since the match maker is no longer fair. Suffice to say, Top Tier is THE ONLY fair match in the game. All other tiers and all the hundred of other vehicles are simply WORSE gameplay thanks to how gheij00b matches vehicles.

2) Lack of game modes. The game hasn’t changed since they removed “The D-point” from ground battles (Yes I was there). Give attackers and bombers a purpose in air-RB. Give varied objectives and asymmetry to ground RB. EC is not the solution. The mode has to be an on par time commitment to a regular match.

3) If you play enough you’ll notice that many kills/death are relegated to luck thanks to game play decisions such as 16 v 16 missile spam air matches, 16 v 16 Call of Duty tank mode with modern tanks in a city map. If you are new or learning the game, this is actually a good thing as it gives you a chance to get points while your better adversaries are preoccupied looking the wrong way. For good experienced players, it extremely frustrating.

How do you justify buying new premiums or getting a premium account when your money is not being used to improve game play? Sure, get a new F-18A Early. Then get wrecked by Fox 3’s every match because all you have is 9L’s and the match maker puts you against F-15C’s with AIM-120s.

Get the new Top Tier F18C. Fight only other F18C’s because people can’t be bothered to queue long enough to fight against different nations in non-mixed battles.

Why is Geyegin so afraid of narrowing BR ranges or decompressing? Why are they afraid of having historically accurate match-ups that are not sim?

Does anyone actually like the BR compression? Do you like the appeal of your World War 2 tank taking a dart from 1970?

Am I too old?

I complete agree, theres soo many minor improvements gaijin could make but they wont even try its like they’re brain dead.

Yeah, totally. Fun in games is an ancient pleasure

Improve a game is/could be hard to do, but ruin a good/average game just for money means that money is the focus.
