Solution to One-Death-Leavers / One-Death-Quitters Problem

If that happened, I fear that one premium vehicle players would go from being disliked and despised to be actively harassed in game.

That would be nice but it wouldn’t fix anything. Most people playing the game these day operate under the philosophy, that the most efficient way to grind is to play as many matches in day they can.

eople who purchase a GE or Premium vehicle get to have 3 spawns per match

Why is this a premium feature? Why can’t every vehicle gets more spawns?

One reason was not mentioned yet…

For Years when i saw that our team had no chance in winning, I just got a sniper vehicle, got myself a nice place in the woods and shot everything quite nicely that tried to make easy points and storm the spawn point. If there was no chance in direct attack, the sniper way some times did it. That still got me enough points and gave a chance to others to maybe turn around the game.

Since the Maps are fucked up with no go areas, the trees are spastic, sniping got impossible and everything is done to make it even easier for the stronger team to keep their advantage and attack everybody that just materialised at the spawn point, i first resented to one-spawns when i saw we were losing, not feeding the Enemy.

And then i stopped playing altogether. Just returning to the forum then and when to see if some changes were made that revert this, but no.
And as long as this is, you will have a problem with one-spawns.

Its a premium feature because GE Vehicles and Premium Vehicles are generally purchased with RL money, hence the additional 3 spawns, that would go for all GE and premium vehicles purchased, so you incentivize the purchase and reward the player as part of the package price

it would cater to all GE Vehicles and Premium purchase with RL money, id rather fight somebody who can spawn in 3 times then have to fight 1 Death leavers, regardless of which side there on

It would just turn the entire game into a premium spam, which I’m sure snail would love and support as they don’t actually care for the gameplay, but you might as well give everything 2 spawns to promote respawning and double lineup options, people who like to spend money can buy backups.

It already is a premium spam to be honest, I’m focusing purely on the 1 death leaving mechanic and nothing else.

Punish people instead of reform current game system?
Bad Idea.

We’d better add more primium vehicles for back-ups.

And people never want to suffer-Humans basically remember the pain more than happiness.

If you force people not doing ODL, People will enjoy the moment when they overwhelm enemy team-but they will only remember the moments when they are overwhelmed by enemy team, So people will quit this game forever.

If people don’t have perfect deck for fight against enemy team, Then people can’t enjoy the battle with their deck.

Imagine enemy team spawned powerful aircraft for CAS but you can’t spawn any SPAA or fighter aircraft against enemy although you have enough spawn points(over than 900SP) because you didn’t researched or purchased them.

And Let’s suppose you have SPAA and aircraft, But It doesn’t mean that you can always resist equal or effective against enemy team because all nations don’t have F-16C, Pantsir at the same time(Some nations have worst SPAA or aircraft).

Well extending it to cover everything seems like a no-brainer, people are also wanting to play their favorite vehicle or spade a TT vehicle.

I would’ve supported this a year or two back but with the amount of low quality teammates (aka low lvl top tier players), it’s pointless trying to stay in the fight. At this point top tier us is just filled with clickbaiters where there are only two players that have an actual lineup.

Best solution is to separate low level premium players and high level players. Wouldn’t solve everything but would entice experienced players in staying in the game longer.

Its a game yes and I take games seriously when they feel competetive like realistic battles. If u think its just a game go play arcade instead?

By this logic, you should be playing sim than.

one death leaving could be resolved incredibly easily.
If they used a system such as bungie did for halo 2 , 3 and reach, that if you prematurely leave a game then you get a warning, then a 30 minute ban, then an hour, then 4 hours then a day.
And so on until it hits over a week,

one death leaving has systemically ruined most BR brackets above 9.3 and your entire match is dependant on people actually using a lineup rather than them performing well with said lineup.

The game time is 25 minutes yet most matches are decided with in 2 to 3 minutes and only rarely does it turn around to be a 10 minute or 15 minute match.

This is not a problem caused solely by premium players either as ive seen matches with people with top of the line tanks just leave after one death.

Then remove the stupid hoops you have to jump through to even get a game of sim in a vehilce you like.
Or make realistic true to its word and make it realistic.

It may never be possible to remove ODL’ing from War Thunder unless severe punishment is placed upon users who do so. Gaijin is unlikely to ever do this as premiums are meant to be purchased and used alone.

Unless Gaijin begins selling premiums the way they do on War Thunder Mobile in “line ups” nothing will change.

No, premiums are supposed to be purchased to bolster a lineup.

No one said you have to buy the prem and run it on its own, tahts the players who decided that, and gaijin to try mitigate this even give up to 20 back ups with each vehicle now-

If premiums were there to bolster a lineup it would not be possible to buy/use them before there is a lineup…

Premium vehicles are here to speed up grind in grind based game and that is their main purpose and that is why they are sold to anyone and can be used as only vehicle in lineup. Gaijin knows that a lot of players are interested in modern era and that is why it is locked behind huge grind so they can sell premium vehicles. Also 20 backups will probably be used in first 20 battles for any newer player trying to skip low tiers so it is not that much of help.

No , that is not true at all. They are designed to be used in a lineup as is every single tank in the game
They were not originally intented to be bought thrown into a game then leave once you die, hence why when so many folks complained about it gaijin did something to try and mitigate it.

that logic doesnt apply to only premiums, theres literally people who one death leave in every vehicle, again premiums and tanks in general in this are designed to function in a lineup.

While its not much help, if you use the tank in a lineup its a massive boon to the longevity of the tank and how much it can provide into the grind.

One death leaving originated not from premiums at all, but from people dodging repair costs, the top tier premium spam is a really new problem compared to how long ODL has been an issue.

alright hwen i joined i bought the XM1 and Peten combo pack, guess what, i did not run the xm1 till i was at least at 8.3, why? because i was well aware of how the game worked, and how the team composition works.

IF people stopped just blaming gaijin for all the problems in the game, then maybe we could get somewhere, NO ONE forces you to use that premium, It artificially extends the grind to join a game do virtually nothing ODL, usually lose then repeat that.
No one at gaijin tells you to buy a premium, no one tells you to use it on its own and no one other than the player base actively thinks that way.
