Maybe we can blame 1DL on the grindiness of the game. I would blame it more on CAS, personally, but the grind is there too.
Give me a tanks-only mode and I can deal with being uptiered. I still might 1DL or 0DL on this or that map. (I do think lowering the BR range of a match by a step would be really helpful, though!)
Everyone has parts about this game he doesnt like. Some think CAS hurts their enjoyment of the game the most as they cant stand getting bombed out of their tanks, I dislike the most that the meta of people just 3rd person camping behind hills and corners, others think 1DL and everything else that diminish their chances of becoming the victor of a round does and some others feel like constant uptiers hurt their enjoyment the most.
Most would agree that the grind of the game is a real bummer - even though it actually somewhat improved. Just shows to me though through what hellpits we already went with this game.
Repair costs are an issue. Since I startet playing BR 8.0+ almost every game ended up with my team getting spawncamped within the first 5 minutes. Therefore I would be killed again instandly if I pull a second vehicle, which would end up with me losing even more silver lions, because I don’t have premium or I leave the game and maybe don’t lose silver lions.
These are the two options unless gaijin would do something about the omnipresent spawncamping. If players would have a realistic chanche to recover, guess what:
They would consider spawn another vehicle.
Lineups are still very much worth it imo.
Especially vehicles u havent spaded since researching a mod tier gives you good rp rewards for next vehicle.
Tho at lower tiers this is not as good as high tiers.
You don’t need lineups to get those bonuses. And focusing spading just on one tank you can actually feel progress.
I play more and more sim and I use multiple vehicles there and spade em.
There are two types of one-death leavers: new players who buy a top-tier premium vehicle and quit after their first death, and level 100 players who leave after just one death for no apparent reason.
A fair Share of YouTubers who just want to show of a particular tank
Me after the third or fourth horrible game in a row
Wen there are enough ka50 that don’t die
Wen there are way to many spawn campers On Hurtgen Forest having spawn campers on both the left and Right is game over. More so if those are cv90120 or anything type 10 type 90 based
Oh and wen a Maus or Challenger 2 pushes spawn(excluding premiums)
It means you or your team have done absolutely nothing
I leave when I am playing Russian tanks and I get Sinai which is nothing but Dunes and I can hit an enemy 50 feet in front of me without sitting on top of a hill.Time to go,then we have crew lock.
people will always want the quick way, its in our nature.
As you grow older and (hopefully) wiser, that turns/manifests into patience
I personally don’t care for the K/D ratio that has plagued many other FPS style and similar games.
I’m in it to help Squad mates, cap points and support the rest of the team, i try and mark the map, squad mark and type on chat to promote teamwork and when it does the games are great. i hate Lone Wolf play style where everybody’s for themselves.
The key word for me is FUN and ill stand by that.
I will always fight to the end, and to be fair most of the best games have been where i’ve died 6 times got like 4 caps, 6 assist, 4 Ground and 2 Air kills.
You End up with over 120k of Sliver lions and around 18-20k of Research
So funny to see this idiot finnaly got banned after gaijin figured out he was making alts on the game to argue with people here.
Well said.
Which idiot?
I agree and I think that is the way to earn and claw your way up the ratings and stats.I just think players dont think before leaving ,its mostly done in temper or due to circumstances such as maybe just not having the right line up for a certain map or maybe something as silly as emerging into the desert in a snow camo : )
This games design also does little to help there.So many possible agendas that each player may have. They may be doing a Battle pass task or modding a new vehicle.They may be simply focusing in getting kills for stats if it bothers them.Maybe making stats private would help teamwork and lessen competition between teammates.
The tier system simply does not work for some people neither does CAS ,some players just can’t buy into certain elements of the game.Many quit the game overall and many J out early while playing.To find somebody who can override every negative element and stay until the end is something of a rarity now days.I admit I can be in the wrong mood some times.
As far as I can see every thing Gaijin have introduced over the last couple of years have increased frustration levels not reduced them.Narrow redline maps are a fine example.Artillery spam is another.Just silly little things that ruin the game.
Getting to your usual sniping spot and finding it suddenly gone or finding you cant shoot through fences anymore when you could yesterday. How will that make you feel any better about the game?
Found my squadron apache again
And In order to grind it out the best and pretty much only options is to rush Straight in trying to get the Rockets off
Get shot down and move on to the next game
Finish the game just isn’t worth it for 200-500 rp per game with premium
But fly around don’t charge Straight in
That gives me 10-20 seconds of flight time for about 2-5 seconds more Survival time
Also AAA and Enemy ka50 ka52 those even have radars so they see you across the map and launch proximity fuze vikers
And Heli ac is basically be fast or don’t even try
Or at least have long range armaments
12 games 1 kill
I fail to see how that’s my problem. You’re just a liability in my book.
When I started doing 1DL, it was because of repair costs. I used to go into a match and stay till the bitter end. The rounds where I was at the bottom BR, that usually meant I always had SP to respawn, and frequently, there was no joy in such rounds. (Also, frequently, they were lost rounds!) After noting that other players were doing 1DLs, I started, and found the game a LOT more enjoyable.
These days, I frequently 0DL. Honestly, I don’t see why they don’t reduce the BR range. I don’t see why they don’t allow barring certain modes. (I only really like domination) Events that make it such that nobody wants to cap encourage me to leave, too. Anytime I’m playing and the other team is outnumbering me at the capzones is another game I’m likely to leave as well. I’m old though, so really any whim is fine to go do something else. :-)
Cause when you lower the Battle Rating BRs you compress the game further meading to cases where F-4 Phantoms will be facing off against F-86 Sabres.
Or King Tigers are facing vehicles that they should not face cause they would be incapable of really combating it effectively. A lot of vehicles facing King Tigers are vehicles that it can face and kill. While some were produced decades later, and are using let’s say rounds such as HEATFS.
That doesn’t mean those vehicles overall were really that different from those from mid 1940’s.
Correct on this, but when you mean by DL yyou’rereferring to the word “Down low”?
He meant lowering BR spread in Battles. So instead of meaning ±1 BR from you BR you will meet just ±0.7 BR.
So…never get a match. Cause that’s what that idea is. I rather not spend 8 minutes waiting to get a proper match with fellow 0.3’s. When i probably could have played 6 matches for the amount of time it would take to just get 2
