Quick question. Do YOU have fun in War Thunder?

Ive never flown the f3h2 and i dont plan to, that thing is ugly and looks miserable to fly.

I never found agility to be a problem in the f100d, mostly because even if you get slow your ginormous “fuck you” engine will simply rate you into winning whichever dogfight you so chose, i actually think its better than the mig19 because of how agile it is. And yes, the guns on the f100 are sooooooo good, i love them.

and its missing 9J too

All BRs are my favorite.

I would have more fun if the game worked properly on a regular basis, such as the chat . . . it NEVER works anymore. I am the Commander of a very active Squadron and I cannot communicate with my members more than 25% of the time.
Things like that, game functionality, toxic players intent on ruining other’s fun . . . the list could go on for pages.
But the general lack of concern and the “it’s good enough” attitude that seems to come from the development team is stark, glaring and rather disturbing to tell the truth.
It generally seems that they just do not care about their “product” very much.
Sure they pump out the new vehicles and other “content” but improving the game? . . just don’t see it . . .

Don’t get me wrong . . all in all it’s a great game, I love playing it and I have been at it steady for over 11 years, but . . . . there are just so many things left neglected it’s kind of mind boggling
All I can advise anyone playing WT is to find what is fun for you and do that
There’s a LOT more to the game than rushing to top tier just to play jets . .
A LOT more . . don’t fall for the “carrot on a stick” the end game has become

carotte

i dont mind that, and the french one never had those anyway, plus you cant have aim9j’s at 9.3

i mean if we have decompression then maybe

What about Naval and F-16 line?

It really angers me how a great game at its core is a real disaster and somewhat desperate when by correcting just a few things the game would improve substantially. Speaking mainly about the GF, simply by having better made and larger maps, adjusting the damage model of all the bullets in the game and how they interact with the armor, adjusting the penetration calculator to make them more realistic, reviewing the armor and volumetric bullets to eliminate absurd ricochets or penetrations. By correcting these things the game would already improve substantially.

Weirdly enough, top tier is fun for me. Granted, I mostly play air sim these days but i sometimes go into air rb for quicker gratification admist the 16v16 chaos.

When the game wants to work, then it’s fine. when it’s a buggy mess, no.

And the gameplay has become stagnant though, with gamemodes like ASB getting no TLC in years

yeah… idk man, aim9j are 10.0+ material, the airframe itself isnt much…

F-15E is good enough
use it to grind the other line if u want

well Gaijin balance F-4E II by not giving it DMAS so it cant use 9M and 7F
its also missing 9P
F-4C II missing 9J
if decompression id say it would be better

mhm good point actually, still doubtful this will change

Actually, yeah. I have fun in WT, though it heavily depends on the mode and what I’m playing.

For air mode I’ve enjoyed the game way more since I got into sim. The BR rotation makes uptiers completely optional and there’s much more freedom on how to play. I’ve had the most fun in the 10.0-12.0 range, you have a nice balance of aircraft of performance and armament, IR missiles that can be flared off, somewhat unreliable SARH missiles and guns that are still viable. Earlier jets are fun as well. I still haven’t gotten into top tiers, no opinion on those.

Ground can be fun sometimes, but the uptiers and horrible maps don’t help. I have most fun at low tiers, 5.0 BR max. After that it becomes a chore to play.

Do I have fun?

No, I don’t.

Only still playing because of sunk cost fallacy.
