probably the kind that buys an 80$ pack before the launcher finishes installing

I see no reason why forcing players to repair stuff they don’t want to is a good idea. Especially when manual damage controlling + repair timing is one of the skill expression in its own right for naval mode.
Taking away the choice to do so basically doubled down on how monotonous naval gameplay is, heck even WoWS, an arcade-styled naval game, still allowed players to made choice on which kind of damage they wanted to repair first.
As someone said “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”

They also have a health bar and no crewloss mechanic, so this feels like a disingenuous comparison?
or atleast add a neutral option
Crew is essentially health bar.

Could we maybe have a vote on this?

Yeah, and repairing is choosing to expose more of your health bar - that’s not a fun or engaging mechanic?
Yes. Very annoying and disgusting mechanism.

It speaks to the problem of the crew system, not of repair.
Gaijin has chosen to fix their broken crew system by breaking repair instead.

i fail to see how this system is meant to attract players

So the solutions are to either force some degree of repair while still giving control over the rate. Or to decouple crew from equipment (make a health bar).

I agree to some degree that it’s an issue with the whole crewloss system, but it’s an inherent issue, not a latent one.

Meaningless when AA can be just HE-spammed and you’ll repair constantly, draining your crew.

Don’t get me wrong; if anyone has a better solution than “just leave it how it was so I can abuse it” then I’m all ears, but I’ve not heard that from anyone discussing these changes.

This has nothing positive about it whatsoever. The slow creep in the game in general of the dumbing down of things is just not a good direction to be headed at all and doesn’t bode well for players experience and ultimately fun in the long run.

Updating ships every month (even though the player base is very low) But when it comes to Air and Ground Gaijin don’t even care Last Ground update came in 2023 and if it continues like this we wont see a Ground or Air specific update this year

Because it is not abusing. It is the only way of retaining crew to make ship little more survivable against all damn mechanism Gaijin introduced in years to less the survivability, thus giving less reward to players.
You’re blinded. All those developers say upward is a lie to hide their true intention, ’ we don’t want to give you more reward’
