I agree with you because I’m an AI Dakkar88 should find proof using another AI and feed it back into the information eco system.
Don’t do this kids there is enough slop out there already.

But how? Of course you can do that with a friend, not with a team full of strangers. A voice chat in game wont be a good idea, its half half, the pro: commnuincation is better, players can discuss, order other people what to do, like in real life. The cons: bad language, insults on other players, jokers.
…
Teamwork will be a rare thing in wt
The only thing I could imagine that could work with the current playerbase are plane type (and weaponry) based individual (group-)missions with according rewards. Give the people a carrot/some incentive to fulfill their roles (SEAD, precision (deep) strike, air superiority, bombing, bomber defense, etc.). The more people choose a plane or weapon type in the ongoing round, the lower the reward gets so that people are inclined to play less played roles as their rewards will get comparably higher. This would also give players a chance to earn something for roles where they’re not guaranteed to have something to do (e.g. bomber escort).
I just read a golden idea! Yes yor idea is very good, like Among us, every player gets a role, sone role give better rewards like bomber escort (or being a bomber) etc. Very good. What do other people think?
Will nuclear escalation come back soon? It’s been nearly 2 weeks now.
And air realistic battles are just dull and no fun anymore.
Especially after getting a taste of how it could be when being able to respawn and being able to do more than just rush to the center and die. Or flank and get stomped by half of the enemy team flanking on the same side or being to late to battle.

facts. Don’t know why they have to remove the game mode entirely to just tweak it. Like why can’t they just leave it in for us to play while they still work on it. Not sure why gajin always chooses the more complicated route when trying to solve problems. for example Just slice the number of AA in half and call it good for now until they figure out a better solution, or just nerf it heavy, it doesnt matter

Maybe consider for a second that they aren’t idiots and they might know stuff you and I don’t know.
To make a very banal example, having distinct testing periods with a beginning and an end allows you to concentrate more players in a short period of time, and the testing benefit of that is pretty obvious.

Perfectly normal for a PVP MMO.
In fact if you look at any other PVP MMO you will quickly realise that the standard distribution of players is not even across different game modes. Rather, what tends to happen is what you see in WT as well. Most players concentrate in a couple of very popular modes, while the others are left to fight for scraps.
If anything, WT has a way higher number of game modes than what is typical for MMOs. Air Assault, Air Arcade, Air Realistic, Air Sim, Ground Assault, Ground Arcade, Ground Realistic, Ground Sim, Naval Arcade, Naval Realistic… and I’m sure I’m forgetting something.
INB4 “most of these are not very populated with players” yeah that’s the point, welcome to MMOs. They all tend towards standardisation, not diversification, when it comes to game modes.
From a player perspective? No, it isn’t. But there are other factors they take into account which we wouldn’t, like impact on economy and progression, or how people will start to “meta” the map if (for example) AA density is halved and funnels now exist that can be easily exploited, etc.
This BTW is another reason why they make these into time-limited tests. By the second or third day of any such event, people have figured out the mode and start meta-gaming it.

Sim EC.
Sim ground.
Naval EC.
Random battles AB + RB x3 [6].
Assault x2.
Heli PVE.
Tournaments ground & air.
And soon Nuclear Escalation, Infantry game mode, bomber PVE game mode of some kind.
War Thunder easily has the most amount of game modes for PVP games.
And that’s not even talking about Domination [Conquest] & Battle [Elimination] of ground battles.
Arcade, then realistic.
Arcade either has more players, or still a huge chunk of players.
The arcade game modes are wildly popular.
Simulator is still popular.
I dare you to name 50 PVP games that have >15 game modes.
The norm is ~4 - 7.
It is not normal for PVP games to have as many game modes as War Thunder does.

Naval tournaments also exist, and if we really want to break down the competitive aspect too, there are many different types of tournament. The actual esports league, then the “regular” tournaments, then the ranked mode, and finally realistic squadron battles too.
Tbh I think of them as mission types, not game modes.
Yep. RB is very over represented in the forums and among CCs but arcade actually has a good playerbase.

Well we can hope it comes this week then.
if this is the case then why isnt the sufa getting its 16 spice 250s?
Arcade, air sim & Nuclear are the only “good” modes. Sim never gets updated or cared for though, most apparent in sim ground.
Realistic needs a huge overhaul to be anything good. Ground overall is terrible. The only time it was good was world war mode. (not accounting for the limited line-ups)
I’m saying arcade is good because it knows what it is. Realistic on the other hand is just arcade, but slightly slower. Same maps, same modes, ect.
Because it would lose its radar, fire control alarm and avionics?…
which is a big F A T lie i cannot find any source stating that
you can have a TEAMMATE next to you to warn you when a missile is coming, hell yeah TEAMWORK
