Do most people really just play to grind and spade for the sake of grinding and spading… instead of just playing the vehicles that actually interest and entertain them?
Otherwise, I don’t understand why grind and spading requirements have any relevance for playtime.
Like… the vehicles I grind and play, I grind and play because I like them. Not because “I must grind and spade” or whatever…
On the other hand, there can’t be a modern vehicle blog without “boooo boring top tier slop, gib WW2”, etc. Which is maybe why I had a bit of a backlash in this specific and particular ocasion xD
You play a lot to spade a vehicle… and once you FINALLY have it spaded, instead of playing it more now that it’s at its peak… you stop playing it to move on and spade another? Like the only point of playing it was “spading it” all along…
As if spading was the endgame, instead of the means to an end.
Everytime a new high-top tier vehicle is revealed there are a couple of people posting along the lines of “ugh more high-top/modern slop”. So for there to be balance people have to do the same for ww2 vehicles.
the reason why that stance exists is because newer players, especially if they aren’t 120% committed to this game have a really hard time actually Getting to top tier
rhose people, and I still dearly remember being there half a decade ago, really hate seeing a bunch of trailers and updates and blogs for stuff they won’t be able to even test in the next year or two because all they got are fun props and the worst Jets ever made
Personally I’ve spaded barley any vehcles other than all the low tiers from like singular matches and the near entirety of rank 8 usa, I honestly only grind to the key mods then I just cycle through the aircraft I have at that point for fun. If I’m ever looking for this completion thing I just grind a techtree.
So personally I play what I want (usually top tier and grind a few nations if bored I’ve never understood the need to spade I assume after a while you become addicted to spading and become tiger_tank 1)
