My problem with the game is more or less 2 things.
Balance
game modes
1 . About balance i can’t say much is all over the place. Needs decompression across the board everywhere. And it’s not about variety or queue times, because you can manage both… either by updating the older vehicles, you can insert a variable BR with what weapons are equipped/allowed in the match and about queue times …just make smaller lobies/more matches running -Especially in higher tiers.
2 . Game modes … which the game doesn’t have. Yet in most events people are happy to join.
SEAD was very good . Gunfight was… AMAZING. We’ve seen other type of events in the past , like interception (with 262s) and the other side defending… , we’ve seen WW mode , which as a mode may didn’t have that hype…BUT the game modes within it were good (i melted in dogfight and AAA vs planes) and they could be used because with the current vehicles many may shine that aren’t even good in Random Battles.
If anything…with premium and event vehicles all over the place, RB modes feel like replaying the SAME thing over and over. There is no variety anyway.
You know the problem is not even Gaijin, it is these kind of people why the staff is getting away with such horrendous works. They are like poor people defending billioneires. The sheeple.
I don’t defend the devs. Your arguments are bs. Crewskill is no P2W. You only need to know what to do for that. The Hightier-Problem is even not a problem of the devs. When you don’t know how to research Planes on an easy way with Premium-Planes, it’s only YOUR Problem.
There’s absolutely no way you’re blaming the player base for the bad server connections.
My internet is fantastic, and every time around this time of year I get absurd packet loss only on War Thunder and none of the other games I play.
Imagine being this delusional and gaslit by Gaijin thinking packet loss is caused by your internet connection and in no way related to Gaijins poverty spec servers.
haha bro you are so crazy i consider myself above average player and even with that its still hard to research vehicles it takes days and after that you have to deal with stock grind which is bs . Like i grinded 420k rp and for what nothing _??
And crew skill is p2w they are gonna do the same with infantry imagine healing faster and reloading faster but in your world its not xdxd
It’s not perfect, but it has improved a lot since then.
Yep, one of the main issues I got with it. I don’t believe it will improve either, it’s gotten worse and worse I think.
I don’t think that is the case. It’s just that the matchmaker is badly set up in order to make matches faster and results in some stupid matches sometimes, or straight up unbalanced teams.
Since its a F2P game with a lot of content, I can’t complain much about the F2P grind, it’s fairly manageable at lower tiers.
BUT
Premium time doesn’t have high enough reward multiplier, should be twice what it is.
Agree, even in air battles, it has issues with inconsistencies due to client-server lag.
Crew experience and stock grind are 2 dumb systems that serve no purpose other than increase the grind and pain.
All these complaints could be fixed if Gaijin wanted to, but so far, it’s just been bandaid fix after bandaid fix. The only good thing they did was the roadmap after the boycott, but since the community just accepted the status quo, they silently removed it
I’ve got a little over 10,000 hours that aren’t even counted, because over the years I’ve played using both Steam and the game’s launcher.
It’s always gonna be unstable, because no server is 100% stable 100% of the time, especially when it’s only used to handling a few hundred players.
That depends on your connection to the server. If it’s like my case, I’m Brazilian and used to playing with 200–240 ping you just have to live with it, because you’re very far from the server.
In some cases, packet loss issues can also be linked to the server being completely full, at least until more room “slots” are created to handle the first days of a big update.
Wrong. We’ve got the case of the J35XS, which is still sitting at a completely wrong BR. I and a few other players fought hard just to get it moved from 11.3 / 11.0 down to 10.3 / 10.7, when it honestly should be 10.0 at most.
There’s no such thing as a nerf to premium vehicles , only added modules or corrections based on publicly available documents, reviewed and verified by devs and mods.
Not all players are using vehicles at their exact BR. If we actually tried to fully prioritize BR balance in War Thunder, you’d be waiting way longer than 6 or 7 minutes just to find a “balanced” match.
That could easily turn into a massive farming scheme for in-game currency and even accounts, if it’s not handled properly. There are no “manipulated matches”; what actually happens is that matches are generated as fast as possible so players can get into a game quickly and actually play.
Be glad it takes days now before, it could take a whole week of pure rage and burnout without using premium vehicles…
We also got a daily bonus of 5 matches with increased XP for reaching top tier in a tree, even if that tree only has one vehicle researched.
If you want to research a new vehicle as fast as possible, use the trick of leaving at least one modification unresearched in each mod rank, so you don’t lose the XP bonus for fully completing a modification tier.
That way, you can go back to the previous vehicle and funnel that bonus XP into the vehicle you’re currently researching. Honestly, this is pretty basic stuff that everyone should know when grinding an entire tech tree…
This depends on a bunch of factors when it comes to a “non-pen” your vehicle’s position, your vehicle’s height compared to the enemy’s, shell velocity, the enemy’s angle, active/reactive/chemical protection, spall liners, and so on. I could list a lot more.
I deal with non-pens or ghost shells way more often than friends from other regions or continents because I play with 200–240 ping, and on a really good day maybe 180 ping, since there’s no server here in South America. So it’s normal for the enemy vehicle to slightly move or change angle while I fire and wait for the shot to be registered by the server.
At the end of the day, it’s basically like always using a 60 Hz monitor and then suddenly trying a 185–240 Hz one.
I don’t know if you earn in dollars or euros, but if you can, just buy it too… If not, just go to Rank I and calmly farm crew points for each slot you have. That’s my tip for any player who wants a maxed-out crew and still farm some Silver Lions without spending anything :)
Of course, since I earn in a currency that’s globally devalued, imagine I’m not paying 7 or 10 dollars, but something closer to 30–40 dollars. Well, at least the game’s premium packs are regionalized for my region! I don’t have to choose between spending 40% of my salary or going out with a date anymore LOL.
In the end, I hate this game with all my heart ,
but you know when something just becomes part of your daily routine? Yeah, that’s War Thunder for me. It’s one of those rare cases, like League of Legends, where it turns into a meeting point for friends or a way to interact with other people.
The game has tons of problems, but I still believe they’ll listen to veteran players someday. Maybe they’ll finally fix some long-standing issues instead of investing in another random “jump.”
We’re doomed to grind events forever… snail love u :)
Only because you do not have the capability to understand it.
It very much is.
Let me guess, J35D should be 9.7? You just want to stomp people with impunity. You do not want balance.
Verifiably false.

Progression is the slowest it has ever been.
Barely did anything. Did not compensate for RP nerfs in the past.
So stop playing vehicles permanently everytime you want to research something new? Great idea…
None of this has to do with ghost shells
Yeah anyday now. I mean they have literally never done so in the 13 years of development but yeah any day now they’ll start!
I’ve been playing this off and on, like others for about a billion yrs and Yes I’m a 100 and yes you’re going to see me in lower br’s as when you get older you start going backwards. The Fighter Mafia has ruled since time began. Ground is fun when you play *Together rather than spend the match fighting like a bunch of 8 yr old’s (expect to be pounded into the dirt by said Mafia). Navy ? didn’t know they had a navy… MM is my opinion the biggest issue that probably can’t be fixed.
