He can say something like this just because there are no another product that similar to WT, no competition cause monopoly and this is the reaction we get from monopoly…

Good thing is DCS World and BMS is good counterpart of current SBEC in War Thunder.
Also, DCS can play tanks if you have Combined Arms modules. Of course, War Thunder is far better at 3D models, damage models, etc, but I don’t dislike the general gameplay at all.
DCS is too realistic for most of the players (including me), WT’s advantage is its balancing between gameplay and realistic, it don’t feel like WOT which too arcade but also not too hardcore realistic like DCS

IMO, FC3 modules are a good start for learning the game or transitioning from WT. They don’t have clickable cockpits, but the number of keybinds required is not significantly different from WT’s top-tier jets.
While I primarily play PvP, the average player in DCS is, for better or worse, not that different from WT. I often see players crashing on takeoff, just like in ARB.
Us players have to take responsibility for what we do.
Map banning is 100% on us. We demanded the feature. We ban the maps we ban.
That’s not on Gaijin. They gave us exactly what we want, and our demands have consequences.
Taking responsibility is the right thing to do. I sided with map bans, and I’m seeing the consequences, and I take responsibility for my support of map bans existing.
Granted, the fact we’ll likely see more 3 - 4km maps in the future is still a good thing.

We got larger maps years ago. Vote them up.
Also zero maps at top BR are smaller than the small maps available at 1.0. 1.0 matches don’t have access to 3x3 and 4x4 maps.
I wouldn’t say its recent was July of last year from what I can find and had a 96% vote for yes. I might be looking at a different one from you though if you still have it do you mind linking it.
Here is the one I’m talking about:
there is the one i was looking at:
Much more recent thread (1 October of 2025) - done by @themadseventeen
This one clearly do not give a “freeway” to AIR RB EC (which was also proposed as one idea that could fit the game, thanks to that part of the poll - read the 1st post of the thread entirely ^^")
and some others informations (more in the original thread):
This poll got far more voters than yours (3400+ vs 62)
but get the focus onto Air RB mode.
Same things coud be used by Gaijin, and put into the game, to get themselves a real survey with much more players answering it, but they’ve decided to not do it with that video.

The reason HARM missiles won’t be that useful is that SPAA already sits in the same spot 99% of the time. If the maps weren’t so small, they could be useful, but right now, the current missiles are beyond sufficient.
Even further, Aircraft are still significantly overpowering air defences. SPAA, like the BUK and SPYDER, are struggling to hit anything, while LDIRCM helicopters are immune to the IRIS-T platforms.
Seriously, do we need CAS to have another weapon to beat underperforming SPAA?
I, for one, do not want to powercreep Aircraft against SPAA to the extent it was a year ago.
It would help if the research payout for premium time and premium helicopters weren’t barely 20k per hour, with 9.3 helicopters costing 400k in research.
I have watched the interview, which I am satisifed with for most of the points, but I think repair times should be reduced, at least in top tier, to be closer to BVVD (and the community)'s visions for short, fast gameplay.
Also, the maps are still too big and open. I think they need to be smaller and more closed in.
Oh God, the legend has reappeared again.
You can’t be serious.

You’re replying to my post as if I’m complaining about map banning…? I’m not…? I have some maps banned but well, I often still get them and there are more absurd maps I’d still like to ban.
Also excuse me? The players of a game have to take responsibility for the game’s development, features, maps and balancing? HUH?
It’s not like I took responsibility and voted to fight premiums and regular tech tree planes with all aspects when my plane has 0 flares.
It’s not like I took responsibility and voted to have match ups like T-54 vs XM1, Tiger II vs Jumbo/Sherman, witness what Su-33s do in their own tier or downtiers, Phantoms/MiG-23 vs F-15s, 16s, 18s, Russian GRB 10.3s…, T-55 vs T-80, AFT09 at 9.0, we could probably spend all day talking about similar matchups.
It’s not like I took responsibility and voted for probably ALL but a single one of the naval maps to have some of the worst design I’ve ever seen in a game
There are entire playlists and compilations of broken spots in almost all ground maps, spots that often enable spawncamping almost instantly. You don’t even have to win or defeat the other team, drive to the side and you can spawncamp the other team.
You can literally see a post here showing many polls with THOUSANDS of votes, with more decompression, more objetives and larger maps crushing the other options. I’ve seen many of such votes, do they really work? How frequent are they and how frequently are they actually respected and implemented in-game?
You’re addressing a single topic players have true responsibility and ignoring everything else. Players are not responsible for the horrible matchups frequent at Ranks V/VI and above due to BR compression, players are not responsible for the horrible map design, players are not responsible for 0 serious attempt to include new game modes or enlarge maps for top tier, as 1.0 matches are fought with 1930’s tanks with 37mm cannons and top tier matches are played with 120mm cannons with laser rangefinders and MBTs that go as fast as light tanks despite weighing over 60 tons. As I said in my previous post, does it look like players are happy with the answers? Does it look like those are responsibilities fully on us? Read the comments under the video, you’re seeing the posts here in this forum, be honest about your answer.

Is the time to revive the union…
Stopped watching when the dude said “we consider player feedback”.
Yeah right miss me with that crap.
( Reading thru this thread I can see that I didn’t miss anything by not watching this slop on day one)
(Insta flagged, as always)

Or I can go play GHPC if I’m tired of capturing points in GRB, BVVD’s logic on the lack of variety makes no sense, people play the only game mode they are offered, they don’t have a choice.

I don’t know… can you revive a company to make a game?
hey, lower BRs have a harder time dealing with bombers and bombs so nothing wrong to see here
