Honestly, I’ve never quit a match because of the maps, no matter how bad they are. I don’t usually do ODLs (Out of Dwells), since my goal in the game is to play all the tanks in the game a certain number of times, so doing ODLs would make it take me much longer to achieve that. I only do ODLs when, after playing for a while, I get tired of the absurd bounces or absurd damage (which tend to happen extremely often), and when it’s happened to me many times, that’s when I start doing ODLs, out of indignation with the game. I don’t have a problem with the enemy killing me, but I don’t particularly like giving away kills to other players simply because the game decides at that moment that I should die to benefit others.

i started doing it cause usually the teams arent great and the maps are just so buns you either have to sit in one spot snipping people but no one shows up or you try to go in and die
Ive noticed it too,the last weeks have been unplayable…
As always,Russian fuel tanks absorbing all the damage
The non pen at the start of the video against the T55 with a DART its absurd btw
And lets not forget some issues this game still have over the years
I killed myself here to show how bad the game is currently in this state

I leave if its single cap. I hate that gamemode with a passion. I usually dont 1 death leave at all otherwise.

That’s not the worst one.
“Battle”, where you each already own your own cap is the worst.
it’s essentially a death-match mode and it takes F-O-R-E-V-E-R to steal the cap. More often than not the other team is dead or have left the game before you can complete the CAP-steal. Good luck with “series of captures” mission on that one.

One reason I 1DL is when I’m trying to grind the modifiations for helicopters, I take my heli + reserve tank in my lineup (reserve vehicles dont get crew lock). By doing this I can spam rocket rushes and quickly grind modifications.
This is partly because I already have all other vehicles researched and spaded so I’m only focused on one vehicle.
But this wouldnt have to be the case if the heli PVE was even remotely playable. (I find it boring and the rewards are too low)
You would probably be the reason some people 1dl in ground battles, either dying to some heli rush garbo, or seeing one on their team. You are a part of the problem
Noooo put back strikemaster pfp. It fits u rlly well.
Im just waiting on a Danish Pfp
Dope ahh.
I do the same when I get conquest versions of most maps. Cargo Port being an immediate quit.
I don’t like 1/2DL, but I have a dream to spade every single Swedish thing I can. Unfortunately that means Pvkv IV and HKP3C. Might try it out.
I don’t enjoy doing this but it’s the only reasonable way to gind helis :shrug:
I wouldn’t be doing this if there was an alternative…
That map its not even THAT bad,the whole right side its perfectly playable even at higher tiers even tho Gaijin shouldnt make every single container to be penned that easily
Nah i dont mind that one at all. At least that mode doesnt restrict the map to mw2 rust.
I think many reason why people ODL in battle.
- Bad maps/team
- Half team ODL
- Same matchmaking uptiers
- Same modes

I don’t ODL because I’m someone who doesn’t give up in games lol regardless of the difficulty level, regardless of broken mechanics etc… Everyone is different. A lot of people rage quit easily and its funny to see it. 😂
That is one of the advantages of a 1 vehicle lineup. One death and your done…you know that going in, and you know that exiting. Nothing to get jazzed about, tis good fun.

You play top tier and get Abandoned Factory.
What kind of demented idiot thought that was a good idea?

80% of my tank is made out of my turret traves system you could miss the entire turret basket, gunner, loader, driver, commander, and still destroy my turret traves system, yeah I don’t stay in a game after that first death anymore when ever I play USA, for Russia, Germany, and UK I don’t have this problem with those line ups and won’t have to 1 death leave.
Edit: Also one benefit of 1 death leaving is there is no frustration, did you get 2 frags and got killed by a heli from 7km away? no problem leave and que for next match, did u kill the guy that just capped in IFV and just revenge bombed you 2 minute into the match? no problem next match is waiting for you, did you finally get a large map and just get killed because an IFV was behind a hill and shot its missile at you with you having 0 options of defending yourself? don’t worry about it next match is 25 seconds away.
Like why try to come back to the match honestly after the first death? Because I can tell you 1 of the next 3 things will happen to you, option 1, enemy is already watching ur spawn from an advantages position and will kill you, option 2 you will die to a heli/cas immediately before getting to the position to fight again, or the rarest option of all 3, you will get to a position and be able to get more frags, now whats more fun in your opinion? spend a minute and hope you can get to a position to fight again and have a 80% chance of just dying without achieving anything? or we que for next match that will start in under 30 seconds and will give us the best option of getting more kills? to me new match just sounds so much better these days, why be the Sisyphus of the match and try to win it when your entire team has fallen apart in the first 2 minutes, when you could be Ares and just go on to the next battle and the next and the next and enjoy the combat for the sake of it
