The grind is decent below rank V. It only gets bad around rank V-VI imo.
I’d recommend buying premium time, it helps so much.
no money :c
The Pattons are the very definition of “aggressively average.” There’s always something that your enemy can do better than you, so you have to make up that difference with your own skill. I’d recommend doing them last once you get to that point.
There is no grind! It’s only in your mind.
Plane grind is good but tonk grind… yeah we don’t talk about that. Anyways

The game sucks you in with a sunken cost fallacy because 1.0-6.0 is a pretty easy grind, but after that it starts to get worse.
It can take 200-300,000 rp to fully unlock every upgrade on a 10.0+ vehicle. That’s hundreds of matches. They want you to just open your wallet and unlock everything.
Grind doesn’t matter to me. For me It’s all about the experience. I really enjoy playing Germany 3.3
you will not like 5.0-10.0 its just pain and suffering.
Also try realistic its very fun.
34fps, but why. this game is 12+ years old, and can run at 60fps on a toaster. PLZ for the love of good find a scraps pc and or reinstall your pc and update your drivers on your current one, 34 fps is why prob partly why you are bad. Geezes these peaple.
Maybe they don’t have the funds to update, but how does owning a top of the line machine equate to skill?
You will not even have to try 5.0 and up if you dont’ want to.
Some people seem to think the only reason to play WT is to get to top tier - those poor lost souls have forgotten to play to enjoy.

i do have 9.3 but i prefer 4.3 i play for fun not for top tier, because of that I actually enjoy wt
Anyone can have fun in OP vehicles (i.e. Pz. IV G) fighting players who have barely figured out the controls. It’s called sealclubbing.
1: this is a 12+ year old game(beta included), and it runs well on a toaster, you dont need top of the line to get 1080p/medium or high at 100+ fps. in fact its very cheaply to get something that can do that.
2: higher fps = better reaction time = better player in some situations.
this is old news, and the fact you dont know this is a-stunning.
The issue is the exponetial increase in RP and SL costs for each new vehicle and the rate at which you gain them doesnt increase proportioanlly, By the time you hit the higher ranks it starts to suck.
Air and Bluewater arent too bad in my opinion, improvements certainly possibly. But its ground and coastal that really need some major TLC/buffs
Pz. IV G defiantly a favorite of mine.
i play solely realistic and have for a long time
same here but we must continue for the snail
Yeah but you gotta grind perspective and mental fortitude stat to achieve that point of view.
Generally speaking, War Thunder is a fun and interesting game. However, I do strongly believe that the quality of a given players experience is heavily dependent on how they engage with the game.
Speaking reductively, War Thunder as a game is going to take your time, and it wants to take your money. Generally speaking the player wants a specific vehicle and the value proposition is ‘give us money in exchange for saving time’
Examples being:
- The sense of power and prestige offered by the ‘Highest Rank Vehicles’ if you want an Abrams you’re going to spend a long time grinding through 70 years of US armour; or
- This limited time offer vehicle is exclusive and exciting and you will either need give high upfront time investment or pay the difference with real money.
I’m going to kiss the ring and remind everyone that War Thunder is entitled to employ consumer psychology to leverage sales. After all war thunder is a remarkable game, and the people who created it deserve to be paid.
War Thunder is a very flexible game, you can play as little or as much as you want. You can play any vehicle you have unlocked as often as you want. You’re under no obligation to use specific vehicles to progress (i.e wargaming) and you can own as many vehicles different vehicles as you have time to research and pay for using in game currency. War Thunder provides a number of incentives and disincentives which encourage varied gameplay but the reality is, you can play the game entirely on your own terms. If you are most comfortable playing the T-34 1940 at BR 3.3 at Rank II, you are within your right to play that vehicle as often as you physically can. In many ways the player is incentivised to play outside of their comfort zone for greater bonuses. Additionally, the players are generally able to leverage any advantage possible to maximise their efforts in game, be that success in battles or an efficient resource grind.
With this in mind I hope the following statement makes sense. If you truly feel like the game is a grind then you are playing for the wrong reasons. If you enjoy playing the game because you simply enjoy battles with your favourite boat, tank or plane then you should be content. If you’re playing the game because war thunder is holding a carrot then you are doomed and it’s your own fault.
