USA holds a particular place in War Thunder and its not that its vehicles are bad or underpowered, quite the opposite, but its the shere number of players and how they play it when they chose this nation.
The recent sales only exacerbate this issue, we all are getting lobbies full of Clickbaits and F18s. They fill matches just to fill the enemy´s scoreboard and emptying our hope reserves of ever enjoying top tier. This issue affects all nations, but USA is the majority of it since its a very popular choice for players, bringing in inexperienced and skill lacking players to matches of people who just want to enjoy fair gameplay or are trying to grind, causing matches to quickly be decided the first 5 minutes of the game and making one question why in the first place push that “battle” button. Out of the 3 major nations, America holds the spot for those who are playing it for patriotism and the “my country isnt in the game” or “my country has the Abrams in service” players, meaning no matter how much you play, youll have america in the next match you play, this is a big problem.
My solution to this is to simply give players the option to ban 1 single nation from being present the next match they´ll play, as simple as that. Most of us would undoubtly put Russia in that option because we dont want to even think of having to face alligators or KH 38s, but if that issue was fixed, no one would want to deal with Clickbaits or any american bringing filth to the match. Top tier needs to be diversified since its absolutly dominated by 4 nations, them being Sweden, Russia, USA and Germany. Changes like severely nerfing or directly removing the KH38, slightly nerf the pantsir, removing all KE protetion of the abrams and Leopard 2 series would inmensely benefit the other 6 nations that inhabit this game.
