War Thunder is Going to die in 2-4 Years

On every major update,
nearly every “new” weaponry or vehicle is focused on top rank and
nothing more than copy-pasted vehicles usually come up for lower rank. right…?

I wonder which nation will get a copy-pasted version of LCS(L)(3) next…

I don’t see this game dying.

I’d say these screenshots bring me back, but I wasn’t playing before 2017 lmao

Using easily disprovable hyperbole doesn’t make a basis for good arguments.

Okay, I understand I blundered with a bad argument with hyperbole. My bad.
But Still, In the recent update, There was only one unique plane in ww2 era (Fokker G.1A which has a ‘Cockpit placeholder’).
If we include naval vehicles, we can consider VLT-2, Bernau and Guichen as new unique vehicles though.

I still think Gaijin is concerned with the top ranks because the majority of the player base wants to see more modern advanced vehicles.

of course, it is one of the ways that keep the game alive longer and I should understand their choice though.

naval event rewards nowadays are just boring copied ships (with changes on anti-air weapons sometimes). and It might be the one of reasons I blundered awfully.

Well, Every online game dies eventually, of course, I also want War Thunder to live long.
Sorry if you feel disrupted by my illogical post. I apologize.

There is definitely a focus on modern stuff, and as someone who’s only here for WWII-and-earlier I’d of course love to see more from that era. But we do still tend to get at least a few with each patch, and I’d rather be happy about what we do get. I’m definitely looking forward to France Coastal. :)

I’m entirely happy with event rewards being sister ships and such. Time-locked content is awful in any game, but since we’re stuck having it, “copy-pastes” are the least-bad option. I’d much rather see unique ships in the tech tree or as permanent premiums.

I really hope that when it does fizzle out they keep some things running like Aces of Thunder will be doing. I love air rb and no game really comes close to the feeling this one gives and I would hate to see it go.

I joined on May 30th, 2017 the last golden era of WT. Pretty much before everything transitioned to what it is now…I miss those times. Wonder how much of a pain it was for BR changes from back then though. Given it wasn’t built around 1.0 that or the dot was very small can’t entirely tell.

Oh, Your opinion made my sight wider and helped me see the bright side of the least-bad event. Thanks.

Thanks, sorry if I came across as terse. It’s nice to see friendly debates/discussions/etc around here for a change. :)

God I can only hope

According to @Pecanin all of War Thunder’s critics are paid actors.
Defyn is a paid actor according to you…

It is dying ,the old top players are leaving and being replaced by newbies who can’t play top tier.The game is dying from the top down.

Not really.

Some of us love the modern war machines of Top Tier, sure; but there are many other players who stick exclusively to WW2 BRs or others because they simply prefer the machines of those historical time periods.

Progressing to top tier is only the goal of those of us who enjoy modern machines; it’s not the game’s endgame.

Yet nobody recognizes era or the WW2 era and nobody including yourself does anything to protect it.Top tier is dying and it seems like WW2 1-6 BR is what keeps this game going but you would never guess reading this forum.

Huh?

I just prefer modern machines and therefore find top tier more enjoyable.

I have made countless commentary, both on Reddit and the Forums, about how WW2 era is ruined by being forced to face Cold War munitions and vehicles; but every time I bring this up and suggest that decompression is needed for balance, I am shat on by everyone claiming that “I just have a skill issue” and that “dates don’t matter”, putting extreme and incredibly specific examples of exceptions to prove that midwar tanks facing HEATFS is “fine and balanced”, so… eh. What else do you want me to do, when not just Gaijin but even the community denies there’s a balance issue and refuses to address it as such?

Not true, considering Top Tier vehicles (to grind the way to Top Tier) are Gaijin’s most profitable source of revenue. The playercount increases more and more the more modern and more advanced vehicles come to the game.
