No one besides a very small amount of larpers on the forums want this gameplay bro. You are not speaking for a majority of players, you just want the game to change to fit YOUR preferred gameplay. Because you are unable to succeed with the game in the current state you want it changed so that the game suits the way you play.
I think large maps are complete trash and only exacerbate the major issues with map design in this title. I and a majority of players do NOT want to drive for 3-4 minutes just to be killed by some camper or get bombed.
No most people don’t which is why a majority of the larger maps are banned at a higher rate.
You have to think lmao what kind of argument is that, maybe use that thinking cap to figure out why you are in the minority of players.
One good game is not indicative of good play, I’ll grant you are better than “most” players but you have never played top tier and your stats are only slightly above average. Playing bad tanks does not make you good btw thats not how anything works.
Yeah you not driving forward into a meat grinder is why you will never get passed a 1.4 kd and 50% wins. TBH thats totally fine for most players but saying that you are smart for being average is rich.

I’m sure you do, however the spot was unbalanced.
Bruh, I legit have been playing my Challenger 2’s like mad trying to finish out the British tree because im SO close to finishing up the the British ground tree, ive only got like 4-5 vehicles left to research.
There was no “finding” that spot, it was obvious. It was also just insanely unbalanced.
TBF it wasn’t.
The Line of fire it had was lack luster, and it was so high up alot of tanks would have to expose them selves alot to get fire on MOST tanks.
it was easily counterable if you went into the town, or Were a decent shot.

Oh it most certainly was. Same with almost all of these positions ppl get upset got removed. It was one of the strongest power positions on the map.
Ok so you don’t have top tier, and only have a singular nation… Got it. You also picked some of the worst tanks in game as well no wonder you think that maps should be massive open fields so you can mitigate the flaws in the nations tanks that you chose. LMAO
Larger the map the less skill and less the tanks unique characteristics matter. Its that simple.
I love how people will say others should “just think and use their brain”, then simultanously despair about how their favourite camping spot was removed. If you’re so superior at using your brain and reading the battle, perhaps you can figure out a new way to play the map without abusing overpowered sniping spot?
I understand that some people like long range sniping/camping, that’s fine, I’m not the one to judge your preference. People like different things. One thing that bothers me though, is trying to paint yourself as intelectually superior just because you like to camp in a power position and not drive into the meat grinder.

But you dont? What are you talking about?
I don’t understand how "LARP"ing is anything, but a compliment.
You play warthunder to experience flying iconic or obscure world war two aircraft and tanks.
Some of the most fun in the game there is to be had is by definition LARPing: Escorting bombers across the English channel to bomb the northern coast of france as you try and keep the luftwaffe of your allies (or the inverse - recreating battle of britain with raids on the southern coast of England as you scramble to take down all the german bombers before your airfields and bases are flattened).
We can have that experience in air sim, and it’s bloody amazing.
Few matches have lived up to the experience I had here. Pictured - tickets about to bleed out, we're flying in formation back to base into the sunset after an over 2 hour long match
Why can’t we have that for tanks?

Literally massive brain moment. /r/iamverysmart I camp the power spot and dont rush in like those noob donkeys.
Power spot gets removed.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE gaijin forcing me to play the game besides camping the same positions every game, how do you play like this.
Because. This is REALISTIC BATTLES NOT SIMULATOR. If you want to role play this is not the right game or game mode for you.
You cannot be for real right?
I guess this proves that you didnt read any of my posts beyond the first line.
Exactly. Realistic battles, or as its name used to be: Historical battles.
Arcade battles already exist.
Sim ground is unplayable due to its random lineups. Half the time I think to play it, my british line-up I want to play is not available that day.
At least with air sim it’s just “Oh, today my 5.3 f4u-4 faces against 6.3 planes. I guess it’s gonna be tough.” With britain, “No, you’re not driving your comet no matter what today.”

If I’m not mistaken the entire reason sim ground is the way it is, is because there weren’t enough players to create normal lobbies. Which just further proves that you are in the minority.

Could at least make it like air sim rather than hard-limits of “no comets today”
We’ll duke out 6v6 on a 64x64 map just fine there and have a lot of fun (in air sim).
Ground is prolly better at 8x8.
No sim is unplayable since no one plays it, because its not fun. Who would have thought that planes and helicopters spawning at the start of the game would be cancerous to gameplay. OH WAIT LITERALLY ANYONE WITH A FUNCTIONING BRAIN.
Even air sim is infested with bomber bots and is extremely boring. Its just a bad gamemode.
Also you literally cannot play sim if you want to play a specific tank on a specific day.
See my aforementioned complaints about being unable to play the comet whenever I feel like it because the rotation said no comets today.
It should have the same system as air sim of this rotating BR brackets:
https://warthunder.highwaymen.space/SimCal/
It has issues starting with korean jets, my 8.0 banshee is technically playable in the 8.0-9.0 bracket, but spawn costs and missiles make it only a technicality. It works well for prop tiers, the f4u-4 works both up and down, the a6m3 works both up and down, the p-51 works both up and down.
Still infinitely better than the current ground sim set-up of absolutely not letting you use the vehicle you want.
I get why it’s there: visual IFF and limited lineups. I hate chinese planes in air sim for that (chased a b25j only to learn it’s a friend as japan today…, but I rather that than “feeling like driving a comet? SoL.”
