No, my statement was to poke a hole in your statement in hopes you clarify or my statement causes others to take your statement with a grain of salt.

If you’re going to make a statement about skill & yourself, you should be expected to have people respond to your statements.

My first nuke was my only fun match in M18 as I dislike the tank. Less than 1000 tickets less on a loss, B29 bomb winning the match in the 6.7 game.
It was exciting that I got to drop a tactical nuke like that, and in a tank I dislike no less.

At the end of the day, none of the enemy spotted & killed me until it was too late. If the enemy team allows a single player to attain 2500 spawn points then they were out-played, it really is that simple.
I’ve been excited for EVERY nuke drop in my matches, both enemy & allied, because that means one team screwed up.
Even if it was my team I can respect the person that got the nuke.
And I even got to kill a nuke carrying aircraft on Abandoned Town, it was great.

you dont understand . my team was always winning but than a a bomb appears .

Nothing to do with skill issues , but disbalance.

So Your team failed to stop one player from gathering enough SP and then failed to stop him from dropping a bomb. No inbalance.

If he was good enough then You should just get better. Both of You had the same chances in tanks.

equal dumb answer :
ok, so you also say that somebody can go and cheat, because everybody has the chance to do so

94

One is game mechanic and the other breaks tos. Not a good comparison.

You clearly arent american thats for sure. I can tell by this statement.

Weve dropped multiple nukes on our own cities, sure they didnt go off. But it still happened multiple times.

97

Just dodge the nuke aint hard

Yes the nukes are too unrealistic but indestructable tanks spawning from thin air and entire engine blocks being repired within seconds are just fine.

Orrr it is just a game. Unrealistic by default

Just spawn AA and shoot down the plane before it drops the nuke.

Cheating is nowhere near as prevalent in this game as you believe it to be.

There is nothing casual about it. At 6.7 and up, you start running into serious players and everything is a lot more “sweaty”.

If I’m playing 4.3, I can pretty much just turn my brain off and have fun. At 6.7, if you do that, you are dead. Engagements begin much earlier, power positions are much more well known, players know weakspots and so must you, CAS is deadlier, you have go karts and SPGs and superheavies.

The moment when someone drops a nuke (assuming therefore they were not shot down) is a culmination of all the hard work done for the duration of a match. You’re just seeing the tip of the iceberg. Watch their replay and see how they got there. Or go look it up on YouTube.

Here’s a great example:

Tell me he didn’t deserve it.

Teams are usually pretty mixed. If you’re new, you will have veterans on your side, and the veterans on the red team will have their own rookies to look after.

If you feel very inexperienced, go down in BR. There is nothing wrong with that.

When I started playing, I rushed to 6.7 and then went back down to 1.0 and made my way up again to learn the game right this time. Wisest thing I ever did in WT.

We’re all beginners when we start out. It took me 6,000 matches in GRB before I dropped my first nuke. In the other 6,000 I’ve played since then, I’ve dropped just three more, though I’ve come close many times.

I think of myself as average, so that should give you an indication of how difficult it is to regularly get nukes.

its that difficult that i saw it the last couple of days regulary.

Its not about MY SKILL Level here.

I know that a tank with 10 kills is way better and i think i do my job not that bad as well. its not too hard.

AGAIN: we are winning (no skill issue ) and just one player decides to end a game with a A-Bomb.

If a player is that good, he should be a good teamplayer to make his team win without a laughable Atombomb.

Oh just had another Atombomb. but yeah " its so rare " …

You might be winning but your entire team failed to stop a single guy for the whole match. Not being spotted and killed by 16 enemies coming from both ground and air, while constantly doing useful actions (kills, assists, etc.) for prolonged periods of time is quite a feat to achieve, so a nuke would suite it quite nicely.

Only thing you can control is your own vehicle, you have no say in who you’re going to get or how they’re going to play the match.

Bruh. Your individual impact on a team of 16 people is already small enough. Imagine wanting to remove one of the few instances in which you as the individual player can actually turn a match around. Any mechanic that rewards people for exceptional performance is a good mechanic for the game, how do you not see this?

Yes, “decides”. Lmao.

Earlier this afternoon on Ash River, we were losing badly. I was getting very close to a nuke and capturing B. I was killed by my own team’s artillery, launched by a Phon Kong, while capping B - which would have secured me the nuke had I completed the cap.

When I looked at the spawn screen, I had 2487 spawn points.

If this was about what I “decided”, trust me, that Phon Kong player would have been scrubbed from the game so hard that even the replay would be gone. :P

This is a game with 250,000 active players at any one time, and you want to tell me that seeing a handful of nukes on a daily basis is a lot? You don’t understand orders of magnitude.

so i turn the thread around.
I get punished, because my team cant kill one player ? and that this player can nuke a whole map.

105

you are telling me, thats rare if me as a casual player see it daily at least once? hmkay

tell me a competitive game that has something stupid like that atom bomb, oh wait lets see CSGO were the CT´s have a C4 after 30 frags of one player. XD

Absolute disbalance

Yes, your team is often 16 people big, so finding and killing a single player on small maps we have now isn’t that hard.

In CS you’re up against 5 people at most, meanwhile here you’re facing 16 people at most.
Also, in WT you might get killed by something that you had no chance to counter, let’s say you killed someone and he got really upset about it and decided to revenge bomb you.

Getting a nuke requires a lot of skill and a lot of luck at the same time, it’s fine as it is.

It’s funny because I still don’t know which button to press to launch the nuclear bomb. I don’t understand why Gaijin assigned another button for the nuclear bomb instead of using the button to launch normal bombs.
Personally, I don’t think it’s a bad mechanic, since it allows the team in which a player has played a very good game to win.
