The only way War Thunder is ever going to see a tank versus tank only game mode with no planes is if Gaijin removes air from Ground Arcade Battles where the air component is irrelevant and doesn’t contribute sales to Gaijin.
If You die faster than they can even appear then ye, that won’t be true to You.
You know that Sabre is not SPAA?
Still not an SPAA.
And can be taken out from outside of its effective range.
Another thing crossed in bingo.
War Thunder is what Gaijin want it to be when they want it to be. There was no Naval to start with and no Israel entering at 6BR etc etc
The game is constantly changing and if Gaijin want a TO mode they will create one.
It seems to me that it would be easier and less divisive than the Night battle thing they are trying to introduce.
War Thunder is supposed to have millions online playing and I am sure many will return to the game after leaving due to CAS.
The game play also needs a boost, its old and tired.
Both WT and WoT are famously faulted game play wise and both must be looking over their shoulder to the next big online tank game that emerges. It wouldn’t be hard to kick WT or WoT up the backside game play wise.
Except i havent. And you and your single good game in Corsair where even ppl with single braincell could take you out but didnt isnt showing that CAS is broken, it only shows you play against idiots which then leads to outcry like this. I dont have any issues with CAS.
That’s why they made it optional, if you’re in a night battle now you’re in it by choice. People’s present problem is they’re too bright and the frequency was too low although it seems to have greatly improved after the update they pushed said it would.
Single? I posted like 9 videos already and have over 6 K/D in 306 battles.
Yet again it fails at the single thing of players being dumb, literally single plane or SPAA would take you out, but people rather chose to ignore the plane until they get their own kill so they recover some SP they spent on plane back before getting into fighting other planes.
I have showed that I can destroy SPAA outside of its effective range ;).
Oh wow such great,big good. At one certain BR you can kill things wooow. I can also kill SPAA at 5.7 with Do-335 B-2 lol.
Cool, like i said, there are ways to take care of CAS. SPAA isnt the only solution if it fails. If one doesn’t know how to aim then tough luck.
Mostly every plane I faced on it has to get close to drop their bombload or wing their rockets at a long distance in the hopes of landing one on me. Some succeed, some don’t. The thing that kills me outside of effective range are Helis or jets with GBU. But that’s mostly all top tier. Anything below, they will always end up being in range.
Again like in other threads, your most likely facing players still getting the hang of this game in low to mid Br. I play all Br ranges and i dominate even at low tier super easy cuz i know what Im doing. At that point, im just bullying the new players. If your doing the CAS and know what your doing then your just bullying as well and saying its broken. If it ever happens where both team are full of experience players, you will get shut down quickly and will be a chaotic battle of going back and forth rather than one sided match.
EDIT: i play this game a lot so I can say this without a doubt, I had to teach my brother how to play smarter some time ago. He complained about CAS and about how he cant pen the tank. I watched him play, my guy was shooting a Jumbo tank the same place each time saying he cant pen it LMAO I showed him where to aim and he was happy, i showed him to disable a tank first and how to aim. He plays better now, he makes SL too. he suffered a lot with SL cuz he was just so bad at this game.
Certain B.R.? It applies to all open-top SPAAs that are at many B.R., but ye, try to downplay it.
Helis that can take You out outside from Your effective range already start at 8.0.
Planes that can take You out from outside of Your effective range start at 7.0.
My guy, again, SPAAG isnt the only option. My only answer vs heli is a Jet/plane. And your right, each nation is lacking a useful SPAAg around 7.0 Br. Doing TO mode isnt the answer but adding new SPAAG for that Br will help a lot. There another thread somewhere talking about the need of new SPAAG where the Gap is. Until then, we will heavily rely on some 5.0 SPAAG for some nations and rely on our allies if they have a 7.7, 7.0 SPAAG with early radar which isnt that great to do since most hardly use them lol If it were me, I’d use them, but im mostly Japan main so RIP me.
But I’m talking about SPAA, not about taking air to take care of air.
TO would help a lot as many people who would like to play just tanks would have place for it.
Yet we also talking about taking care of CAS. A lot of SPAAG players stopped me from doing CAS when I was playing the French SB2C-5, AD-4, F4U-7, F-84G-26-RE in GRB. However, I did get some games where there wasn’t anyone on SPAAG and did some work with them planes. They didn’t punish me at all, RIP them for not stopping me. Sometimes i get lucky, sometimes I don’t. Was rather fun to do.
I get your point, but this is WT, not WoT. Will prefer to keep it separate.
But if air is the only reliable solution for air, it means that there is unbalanced which should be taken care of.
If TO was added, current combined mode could be changed into real combined where both units can start from the beginning and have a real fight. The players could not have a problem with it, as if someone was there only to play tanks, he would be moved to TO.
nuh uh
These people against it, are they stopping a new mode being added? If so it would be nice to see the evidence. And are we talking those actually against it or do you mean just not fussed and/or reply to questions that should have been directed to the Devs, not other players?
So no, what you state is false.
Never said that they are stopping it from being added. The one stopping it from being added is Gaijin itself.
People who are against adding TO only justify gaijin decision encouraging it to not add it which leads to further nerfs to air.
You know that makes very little sense, yes?
Does it really?
If players would say that they want a TO because it benefits the game and they were united about it, then Gaijin would need to reconsider the addition of it instead of providing multiple nerfs to the air as they tend to do.
When every now and then a new thread from a new person comes out and people come and say that it is not needed (mostly the same, as the same come too to defend it), gaijin has a justification that players don’t want it (or that many don’t want it, meaning it is not needed).
The nerfs only destroy the game for people wanting to have fun in the air and doesn’t repair situation for the ground meaning, that both sides are still not happy.
