Is it not about time war thunder addressed the ultra low graphics settings ie: No bushes, trees ect: I for one am tired of being shot from 1000’s of meters away through forest’s and rows of bushes because of players that turn there graphics to ultra low. Its suppost to be a setting to allow cheap old pc’s and laptop’s to be able to play but its being exploited by players even with top of the range pc’s to give them a bigger advantage (i have seen streamers doing this).
Easy fix for this to not stop the legit players with poor old pc’s but would stop the exploiters. If you turn down graphics below a certain point ie: No bushes you will only play against players that have also turned there graphics below that point.
This would make the game more level and fair for all that play war thunder?
Maybe instead they just use a ultra low poly bush with something like 8 polygons max? That way the bush is still there but their computer can still render it?
No i tried it on laptop turned graphics to lowest its like a green flat desert no bushes at all and instead of big bushy trees theres a black stump its stupid so if you have ultra low on you can see across the map but everyone else see’s vegitation
This topic has always needed an actual fix. As it still is extremely similar to how it was years ago. having reduced graphics makes the landscape much more bare making it easier to spot enemies. Granted lower graphical settings are there because not everyone has a computer/laptop strong enough to run the game reasonably, but that doesn’t mean they deserve an advantage. especially when people without Potato computers decide to give themselves an artificial advantage by lowering their setting.
I grew up seeing computer graphics evolve from let´s take an early flight sim as an example - topside blue, bottom half green - and as propably most players I´ve been eager for better graphics throughout the years. Now we are at a level we couldn´t have even dreamed of back in the day, and there´s no way to convince me to set low graphics just for an easier gameplay.
Ok as a low spec player the only solution to fix exploits like this
is to have the engine check spec of computer for example
if graphics card/cpu = high end hardware then block low spec settings.
