For many of us, there are no alternatives. DCS isn’t on Xbox, nor are most games that are considered competitors. I think we get WoT and that series, but that’s about it. War Thunder is a crossplatform game, which is why it has many players: since it is the only one we get.
Let me guess, “waaah, ADATS OP!”
No, it wasn’t that high a BR… But it was there.
DCS also doesn’t have a mouse and keyboard control scheme like War Thunder, Starfield, or Star Citizen.
That’s War Thunder adding a feature that its competitors don’t tend to have to make it more alluring for people that want to play military vehicle games.
My entire point is just cause the competitors’ games are a worse experience does not mean they’re not competition.
War Thunder has added thousands of features, vehicles, and optimizations since release all to catch up and stay ahead of competition.
I came on the scene in like 2022, so I don’t know all the specifics. All I remember was Type 16 was supposedly the best tank (or most modern, one of the two), F4S was the best jet ever (yeah no), and there was a funny 1.0 tank that could dominate +4 BRs above (I don’t know what it was).
Personally I couldn’t tell you what War Thunder has over anyone else, simply because the competition caters to PC players. Don’t get me wrong, I love War Thunder, I just view that it could do better, be better. They have the ability.
but the problem with game devs these day is that even if they have the money and ability they dont want to do it, because they already have money and they dont have to try to make more money
Oh, there’s plenty of room for improvement.
All I’m saying is War Thunder today is far and above improved over 2013 War Thunder.
Back in 2015, NOTHING was as good as War Thunder, AC7, DCS, World of Tanks, etc is today.
Every military combat game was just so much worse, and I thankfully only remember fragments of it.
And War Thunder will keep improving every major update to stay ahead of competitors, as they’ve always done.
No, not all the added features are glittery, but most of them are vastly important features.
There’s an AI overhaul they very much need to make EC modes better; and there’s signs of progress this last major update.
the problem is do they want to improve or not, you can clearly see they dont
theres probably thousand of vehicle bug report they havent fix, if they just fix it once in a while or fix it after every update they would have been fine, they would be able to make more money without having to think about fixing bugs which i doubt they even care rn because they are making money doing minimal work, and its only when they need to hit the quota again they make some model and half if not 80% of the model they make are lock behind paywall
@MrBombastic8
Every single major update since at least 2022 has offered new extremely expensive to develop features.
So it’s blatantly obvious they want and do improve the game.
There are weekly bug fix patches.
And there are no quotas.
Game development takes time, especially for expansive projects.
This post was flagged by the community and is temporarily hidden.
All that and more.
If has been reported, and if they agree that it is an issue, or even things they have picked up themselves, and it hasn’t been fixed yet, then yes it is still being fixed.
follow for internal report, guess how many has they send? absolute ZERO
I’m still waiting for them to fix the default air controls, and the random resorting of the squadron member list when you’re trying to maintain your squadron…
What?
im pretty sure they know that changing hydralic pump box of the abrams is easier than modeling an entire basket
and hell im also pretty sure that even after modeling basket they can still just change hydraulic pump location of it without much work
they wont fix simple bug that doesnt affect the main gameplay
but they also wont fix bugs that are inaccurate either
Mines a bit more serious, in fact I class it as actually game breaking…
And it’s even got worse since that video was made.
sometimes when a bug report is accept you can request to follow what progress has it made, and its been zero progress
every update is just worse and worse, but i dont think they care, they making money correct? when a company make money, they dont need to care for their users and thats like 80% of the company that exist in the entire world
as long as we make money, we are fine
-every company ever exist
Many of your bugs are nothing issues compared to the actual controls not working, but the constant spam of things being ‘broken’ makes those genuine breakages harder to highlight because peopel spam about the problems, but aren’t actually holding up the true bugs.
