There is honestly no purpose for ULQ anymore

No thanks, I’ll keep riding my moral high horse, thank you very much.

ULQ settings with thermals and no extra layers of terrain makes a huge difference lol at 2:50…so dirty. I mean look at the bushes and trees. 1 solid color and can easily spot a tank instantly causing a faster reaction.

I play at max, sometimes movie settings. I would of popped out a lot more just to see that tank and shoot. I can just lower my settings to improve gameplay but i love the graphics at its peak lol

yes, but its capped at 90FPS, screenshot to prove this below

Won’t admit his double standards, nice.

Last time I checked 90 > 60 so you’re still at an advantage, just like thousands that have and use 144/240Hz monitors.

Ditch ULQ as it’s mostly used to get unfair advantage by sweatlord tryhards.

Lets also ditch support for 60+ FPS and refresh rates as only sweatlord tryhards use those.

They could fix the imbalance between ULQ and high setting by making good graphics also give an advantage.


This is how the game looks like on high settings with tree range set to max.

They could make foliage very detailed. In my mind this would be a trade-off between low and high graphics. With ULQ allowing you to better spot enemies in the distance by having all the clutter removed and high graphics would give you an advantage in forests/foliage by having 3d models that can be seen through.

This is ridiculous. Gaijin is already destroying the game by adding forced anticheat in ARB and now you suggest removal of ULQ? How am I supposed to play to my advantages now?? Are you going to force me to play with <500 ping next?

I noticed everyone complaining about keeping ulq play ground. I literally only have played like 1 or 2 ground games total, and have spent literally 99.99 percent of my hours on air craft. And on air craft, other than Mach cone, I don’t see anything problematic about ulq

That’s YOU. YOU are a scumbag. You generalize your shallow and barbaric mindset to other people, because you are incapable of comprehending that other people are not as selfish as you are; you narcissistically believe that you are morally superior to all others, even when admitting wrongdoing.

Most people use ULQ because of hardware limitations, not because they want to exploit it for the tiny amount of edge it gives.

Why are you trying to defend this?

Have you even watched the video I posted?

Your argument doesn’t hold up. To be clear, we’re not discouraging ULQ for players who genuinely need it.

The issue lies with those who own PCs capable of running the game on high or movie settings but deliberately switch to ULQ that’s where the community draws the line.

The issue here isn’t ULQ, or any other game graphics settings. It’s the ignorance of a certain small subsection of the WT community, a vocal minority so to speak. There is considerable difficulty for people that are both privileged (financially) and lack critical thinking to see through their own biases regarding this topic.

If you are interested in boosting match effectiveness by optimizing graphics settings, ULQ isn’t the way to do that. Instead, there are specific recommendations for each graphics setting to increase effectiveness. And while many increase performance (lower the required processing power), many others demand high processing power instead. It should be obvious that higher resolution and picture quality make gameplay easier, not the opposite.

Additionally, on the topic of restrictions to ULQ use: ULQ use should not be restricted or regulated in any way. There are far more people using ULQ from necessity due to mediocre hardware compared to people using ULQ for a perceived advantage despite having good hardware.

“Need-based restrictions” on ULQ use would not only be unnecessary, they would waste development and player time, needlessly limit player freedom, and would be ineffective anyway.

yes, lets hardlock the game to 24fps for everyone

yes, i get 100 ping every time, we should force all players to play on a minimum of 300 ping to keep the balance.

Please avoid insulting other players or making comments about people’s finances, hardware, or personal lives. Discussions about ULQ and graphics settings are welcome, but they must remain respectful and within the community guidelines.

🤷 k I mean no one was directly attacked quoted or singled out but you do you

Playing on medium settings at 60 FPS should be just fine for a large majority of people.
If you want to disable certain settings for competitive reasons then you should be fine with disabling other settings for the same reason. People shouldn’t have advantages due to their settings/hardware, right ?

ULQ haters that don’t like this idea have their double standard caught in 8k, it’s that simple. All of a sudden those people go quiet when you propose balancing measure that also removes their unfair advantages they were happy to keep and kept very silent about.

“Uhmmm Gaijin you should limit those pesky sweats from using ULQ as an advantage, but pretty please don’t remove my advantages like triple digit FPS and refresh rates.”

Last time I checked this is a F2P game, so Gaijin literally expects and lures in those types of people.
