What is your reason behind 1 death leaving?

I suppose you could say that K/D matters a little, but K/D on it’s own has never won a game. It needs zones to win a game. I would think that you would know what I am saying then that if your team sits back to get kills and doesn’t bother to attack or capture the zone/s, would you expect them to win ??? Would you expect them to move on to the next stage after losing???

I would also think that they got their good K/D ratios by being good at killing the enemy when they take the zone so they can win. Good players will never camp in their spawn point or just outside.

Gaijin said that killing is the ultimate way to win a game. Capping point without destroying enemies in first place won’t do much. By killing enemies You are doing team a favor.

The game is based on frustration forcing you to buy premium vehicles due to an incomprehensible grind. I’m not surprised that people leave the game due to stupid mechanics and unfinished gameplay.

The major reason I do ODL is because of the CAS filled games

I’ve had a match where a player killed 10 enemies and we still lost because nobody captured the points. Kills mean nothing.

So he was the only person in the team?

I had a match where guy captured many zones and still lost.

Give me unlimited map bans and a smaller maximum BR spread and I will never abandon a match again.

Once again you can’t argue any point honestly. If the rest of the team refuses to play the game they’re screwed, and sadly this is about every match now. Often times I’m having to face enemy teams that can’t even shoot back or capture points, the issue goes both ways. It’s either dumb teams or dumb enemies.

Tbh if the game just had system where at the end of a round we could choose a new map to play with the same players, the game would be way more fun.

Hate to say this but I do this ALOT. Trying to grind Germany with Pzbl 123. When I die, I leave. I don’t have any more backups and if I did I won’t waste them if I don’t like the map, or if I did bad first go around. And I don’t have any other vehicles (premium or non premium) at that BR. I don’t really have a choice. Staying there and spectating is the same thing.

I think the only way to fix this would sell premium vehicles in packs like MBT and IFV but not all national have a same BR Premium lineup so may be best to give the premium vehicle and 1 vehicle at the same BR from the tech tree in a pack like I would buy the premium leopard Pzbl 123 and an MBT from the tech tree like the leopard 2K as a pack 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Please point out where I’m being dishonest here.

You had games where one guy killed many and still lost and I had where one capped a lot and still lost.

I rather have a guy who kills many than the one who goes for caps and does nothing more as if there are no enemy to cap, You will win the game. But if one can only cap and not kill enemies, then his input won’t make a change.

Because when you capture the points you’re supposed to keep them captured. That’s how the game works. If people don’t understand that then god help this community.

Oh and how You keep them captured? By killing enemy ground units.

I’m happy we agree that kills are important if not the most important.

Gods sake… Why is it so hard to still not understand ??? Lets try and put it a way that even someone like you can understand.

Say everyone on the team if they could, finished with 250 kills each, but only 1 person took a zone. Now lets say that the best 4 shooters on the enemy team only got 3, 2, and 1 kill, but took all zones and kept them. Are you honestly saying that everyones super duper K/D ratio won the game??? Don’t be stupid.

The team that captures the zones and keep them are the best players. Just because someone can get 10 kills a game, doesn’t neccessarily make them a good player. K/D ratio will ONLY help win games if the players take zones as well. If you don’t take and keep the zones - YOU WILL LOSE - it’s as simple as that!!! It’s not physics for god sake.

What is it you don’t understand about not winning if you don’t take zones??? What is it that you don’t understand that K/D ratio can not take a zone. What is it that you don’t understand that if you do not physically take the zone, you can not win the zone??? What is it you don’t understand that if you don’t defend to keep the zones, your team will lose the zone??? What is it you don’t understand about if your team only goes for kills and take no zones at all, YOU WILL LOSE??? What is it you don’t understand that if the team takes no zones YOU WILL ALWAYS LOSE??? What is it you don’t understand about K/D ratio on it’s own will NEVER win a game???

From the thousands of matches I have played and learned from, I bet the only reason the team STILL LOST is because no one on the team was interested in defending and keeping the zones. Logic and experience tells me that either, the players were not being intelligent enough to think that if no one defends it, they will lose it. Or that 1 player was the only player interested in winning and the rest of the team were just sit back pot shotting cowards. The team still lost because they were a bunch of complete idiots who have no clue how to play a war game using tactics to take zones so they can win. This game is NOT rocket science to figure out, but I am amazed how many people have no idea how to play a war game using proper battlefield tactics that actually work.

But then I forgot, kids think they already know best and know more than anyone else in the world. I forgot that even though they are still only kids, they already have all the knowledge and wisdom they will ever need in their future lives, so will not ever accept any advice from anyone older or more experienced. All you get from them all the time is, “shut up before I f**k ya mom”, “that’s what ya mom said, and ya sister”, “learn how to play you noob”, “says the player with only 1 kill”, “git gud”… hell, they can’t even try to be literate. And if you have a go back, they report you for HATE SPEECH.

Come on people. Just because everyone has the power of speech, it doesn’t neccessarily make everyone intelligent. It just makes them a little less stupid.

This thread has totally proved my concept that intelligence and common sense are 2 completely diferent entities. You can teach intelligence with the right curriculum, but you can’t teach common sense.

If the team with most kills is able to destroy all enemy units, the game ends no matter how many zones are capped or not due to enemy team not having vehicles to spawn in.

Then again, this are just gaijin words:
“As War Thunder is primarily a PvP focused game and getting kills is the ultimate goal to win battles…”

Having good K/D proves that You are not a burden to the team as You are not giving more to the enemy than You take. You might be the best at taking zones but if You are unable to kill more than You die it only means that there always has to be someone to do the killing for You.

It is always funny to see people getting angry over it.

Never?

Had a player like You in the game, he was blaiming all the team for not rushing for their deaths.


So yea, please next time don’t try to make reality in what You want it to be ;).

Yea, that sounds just like a massive rant of a person who doesn’t really understand how game works.

The only time I’ve done 1 death leaving in ground has been because of specific missions in the battlepass has encuraged me to specifically play that way, the majority of the time I play for 3-5 spawns depending on the match, sometimes only 2 but that’s because by the time I die a second time it’s 10 min in and my team is down to 4 players and we are getting spawn camped at that point so I could either respawn and get killed or just leave the rest of the match

I agree with your logic is not worth to stay with 4 people left in your team and getting spawn camping unless you manage to spawn NUKE plane to kill the op team somehow.

Two reasons. The first being out of sheer frustration after getting stomped for several games in a row, the second is getting spawn camped.
