I’ve been playing this game for years, literally since it first came out, and I’m at the point where I don’t even know what to say anymore. It feels like the devs have completely stopped listening to the community and are just heading left with everything.
The maps are trash. Period. Both sides of the rotation are bad, the layouts are broken, and it’s like nobody actually tests how they play in real matches. Whether it’s ground or air, the maps don’t fit the vehicles we’re using. We’re flying Mach 2 jets on tiny maps and driving tanks into the same three corridors every single game. The whole rotation needs a total rework, not just small tweaks.
Then you look at the armor models and weapon penetration—it’s a joke. The pen points are not accurate at all. You can aim a perfect shot at a weak spot and it just “disappears” or does nothing because of the buggy volumetric armor. It honestly feels like everything is rigged for one-sided nation crap, especially with some of these Russian models surviving things they shouldn’t. The “realism” is gone when the damage is this inconsistent and feels like RNG.
Air is just as bad. Radar locks are a coin toss and missiles ignore physics whenever they feel like it. It’s all becoming one-sided and politically driven instead of just making a balanced, fun game.
You guys are leading this game into a hole. Stop worrying about the next shiny premium or whatever political stuff is going on and actually look at the base game. Go outside the box, fix the bugs, rework the maps, and listen to the people who have been here for a decade. Stop ignoring the community before there’s no community left to ignore.
