War Thunder is Going to die in 2-4 Years

Ah, learn something new about Americans every day.

Not really, but it doesn’t expand as fast anyway. More it has become like most games , where the players come and go every patch .

Most games have the same issue.

Awful, not so…at least for me. Doesn’t make it good though and that’s what’s annoying.

Those two i give them to you.
MM is BS in general. And of course playerbase after a point became toxic, “buff what i play/nerf what i don’t play” and everything is around grind. A game like this , shouldn’t be based on grind. It should have grind, just not as much. For example someone said something about being able to research same nation’s tech trees with anything (ground to naval or air etc) like they made with helis. That would be a very interesting solution. And very anti-boredom.
I know that playerbase starting to become increasingly toxic after ground forces came in the game.

They could , just make it subscription…but then players would have very different standards.

i agree with this but id also like to say its rather stall naval is either die to USN DD or Scharn for ground its just hold the point or have your team 1 spawn and for air its go into the fur ball get as many kills as possible die and repeat theres not much of a dynamic to the match or randomness anymore its why i was hyped about the possibility of FPS infantry as it would have added so much more to the game play

to be honest,I heard this sound about five years ago.but WT doesn’t have a replacement.WT dominates the market,and that’s what’s causing the problem

Trying to spawn my T10 harrier will literally cost me any hope of getting a nuke when the cheaper russian plane would garantee it

Monday, no event whatsoever and the BP is nearly done for anyone that does the tasks.
I don’t play as much either and when i play i’m into “i don’t really care” mode.
People play if they see something interesting , when there is nothing on they play a few games for fun and that’s that.

I just stopped playing GB on top tier because it’s pointless, if you don’t play for the Soviet Union you’ll lose.

Lol.
Lmao, even

EDIT: Yeah, i’ve checked, you haven;'t even played any ru tanks

i play bits of ussr but mostly low tier to abuse BT tanks.

The T64 family is pretty good on armour and have good guns but the CAS is what makes them best hands down

for the first year and a half i played WT i squadded up with mostly russia mains, they all love the vehicles (other than the gun depression) because if you arent a moron you do well in them every time

your top vehicles are pretty much all premiums or top tier squadron so you can leave too

I don’t think the game is dying, or that it’s getting worse, but I have severe criticisms.
There are several mechanics and decisions made by the company that are terrible and really ruin the game experience.
Apart from p2w mechanics, which are a major impediment to the game becoming a more relevant E sport.
And for many reasons the company ignores these criticisms, no matter how constructive they may be.
They only listen when there is a boycott like what happened in 2022 on Steam…
The game has a lot of potential, the gaijin is not bad as a whole, but if it were more open and less predatory in monetization based on player frustration the game would be much better and would be in a much healthier state.

Agreed, this game is in dire need of new modes, it is mind numbingly boring playing air rb, doing the same thing over and over again .

Air RB EC is 100% needed for air battles, especially top tier, ground battles needs changing too in the same way air does

Yeah, it needs to be halved, or at least 75% of what it is currently. 420k RP for a jet is ridiculous, especially since you don’t get chaff right away unless you’re 14.0

I don’t mind the 420k for plane , really. It’s a ^journey^ but ok… It’s a top tier vehicle that it will be valid for some time (Rafale/EF2K/Su-30SM/F-15E) and maybe forever (ex. Rafale, even if they bring F.4 version, F.3R is still valid , it can carry everything…for the moment ).
The mod grind is the killer.
And not in top tier as much as the older planes that you can see some grinds 20K per mod. There shouldn’t be ANY mod, Air-Ground-Naval it doesn’t matter , that takes more than 5-6K to grind.
Or else they should make MM around that… if you carry X weapon BR is Y . If you carry Z weapon BR is A. For equipment in general , i don’t go for performance mods

You’re right, it’s tiers 6 and 7 that annoy me. Tier 8 is a journey to the end, it feels justified and amazing when you finally unlock it.

Dude… It needs to be lower.

It is painfully long time to play a gamemode i don’t even like

You do not even realize how i was happy i can finally get off from ARB to never ever play it again after i’ve researched su-34. Now i can play it in GRB and i can never waste time on ARB again

Journey? Yeah, what a journey, mindless grind with su25 forcing headons, just to get mig21 and put a talisman. i’ve achieved 2.4KD in mig21smt, so it wasn’t “that bad”, getting frags was a little dopamine hit, but overall the game still was just bad and boring for me.

And doing all of this just because i need to have a PLANE for GROUND battles to have competetive lineup.

And the modules? Yeah, i am not researching modules ever again. I just GE to the missiles/sabot/parts. Imagine having to pay real life money or having to pay with your sanity and time to make your vehicle usable.

Heh, “Journey” he says

Stop with false flagging

Exactly. Majority of the modules should not require research. The only thing that should be researched are the rounds and weaponry. Why should I have to painfully grind for survivability (Parts, EFS, countermeasures, etc.)
