your not considering time spent in battle, activity, getting hit, hitting the enemy, caps , assists, criticals, helping repair etc etc.
Your only thinking of kills - open your mind - there is more going on that you are not considering. Kills are just 1 aspect.
Thing is I’m a French main, so good luck using an SPAA, even though i’d want to. I have to rely on my team and that is always a mistake.
I know that shit happens, but it happens way to much. And when the difference between life and death relies on a broken game mechanic, it’s enough for me to ODL.
About the multiplayer part … it is a multiplayer game indeed but not at all a team game. There is no reason at all to consider anything except my own needs. I have to do the battle pass missions, the daily ones and most of the time, my team is absolute garbage anyway.
Yesterday I destroyed 20 tanks … 20, and we didn’t even win because my team was full of braindeads. I’d really like to see a team play, but that’s not how it works, mostly because nobody uses the chat.
If the game had rewards for team play, then maybe i’d change my mind. Let’s say i take an SPAA, maybe i’ll be very useful for my team but i’ll only get one or two frags at best. That’s not incentive enough.
why do the dumb tasks? i just click the “get reward” button after the match. i dont even look at them and i still manage to get the 1st battlepass vehicle everytime without actually purchasing battlepass bs.
Honestly - i have always hated the concept of the tasks - it takes away from team cohesion and makes people do stupid stuff for a task.
But i know it keeps people playing and some people enjoy it so i cant complain.
America and France need some new spaa additions, agreed.
Well lucky you, but when the task is capturing multiple zones or destroying planes, I have to take specific tanks and do specific things.
I have no lineup to go with my SPAA and caping zones often leads to suicide so i’m forced to waste one tank, no need to waste some others.
Yes, tasks totally take away the team cohesion, but that’s the state of the game right now … so i either play it and get rewards or I don’t and I get nothing but frustration
ignore the tasks then mate.
It is influencing your gameplay and making you do things that are not necessarily in your best interest.
also getting frustrated because you only have x,y and z vehicles but you have a task to do something which is really difficult to achieve with what you have - so when you die and didnt achieve your task/mission - you leave.
Take the task out the equation and just enjoy yourself and play your vehicles and do well with them - that is what the game is about right?
I know and that’s what I did until recently.
But then I saw the tanks that you can get in the warbonds shop and the ones in the various BP … if I want them I don’t really have a choice
lets be honest here mate.
The warbond vehicles are difficult to achieve but on the basis of the fact they require 12 or 16 special tasks.
The battlepass tasks dont really matter - you can easily accrue warbond points, that is not the issue.
i gave up ages ago. i just wanna do well and win matches. simple.
Well I appreciate your mindset and amybe one day i’ll join you. But for now I still want to get the BP vehicles, especially the French ones since for some reason they always end up there instead of in the tech tree
appreciate that.
What vehicles are you referring to?
Mostly the EBRs
Ah nice.
I recently started playing french ground - already got 6.0 props- wanted the F4U-7 with all the mighty mouse rockets.
I bought the char 2c and the B1 Ter recently… yeah . . . . . it was naughty of me, but it is so bloody funny and enjoyable. op as hell those 2 vehicles. :)
These are the vehicles I play when I don’t ODL. Low tiers are fun, people can’t do tasks and the repair costs are still low enough to respawn as much as you want.
The higher tiers should be reworked a bit to become less competitive and more fun, then there’ll be less ODL I’m sure
high tier is thermal snapshot city.
I feel alot of engagement methods become redundant at that br and everyone is either ODL, sit back do nothing, yolo hold w, spawncamper or all 5 tanks share that sightline on that well known sniping spot and compete for kills.
It is like there is no structure - same for aircraft at high tier.
It can be enjoyable sometimes though.
Because time spent in battle is a risk. On can be profitable with premium vehicle with 1 kill and 1 death. One can be more profitable with all you mentioned above but its a risk.
Higher risk higher reward. Lower risk lower reward but still a reward.
They should just give premium tanks 2 spawns. It would fix at least one part of the problem.
As long as it’s only for tanks, it shouldn’t be a big problem.
That’s a nope for me … fought 5 minutes to kill that stupidly overpowered IS-6, don’t want it to come back 2 times …
mate the economy recently got improved…
You do not need a premium to profit.
I do not rely on premium vehicles (i have them) nor do i even buy premium account, battlepass etc etc.
I have always made money, some matches not - granted. but adapt.
If I use SPAA I won’t win against a good person in a plane. If I use a plane and kill a guy in the air, my team loses on the ground. If I use a tank to win the ground I get killed by the air.
4 kills? If I want to have kills I will get as many as I want. You can check my stats on T18E2 ;)
trust me on this - an spaa is more dangerous to aircraft than an aircraft is to spaa.
and most turnips will fly directly at you anyway - giving you the best chance of killing them - which in turn drastically reduces the amount of spawn points that individual has - if he spawns in aircraft and does nothing and dies - it is highly likely he will either leave because of lack of spawn points or he will spawn in an spaa himself.
If you then die in spaa after you get your air kill - you will likely be able to spawn in a tank and roll thro the enemy after their numbers and spawn points have been depleted.
It not matter of need its matter of what players use. Players use premiums to achieve profit even with small amount of kills and ODL. Its situation what Gaijin themselves created when they introduced high BR premiums.
