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
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
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.
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
I’ll 1 death leave if its a terrible map and if I know that I won’t have fun and theres nothing I can do to change that let alone win.
For example being instantly spawn camped on Mozdok
After thinking about it for a while I also decided to leave a match when our team is getting spawnlocked, I’m not a SL pinata for the other team, I have most nations researched to some extent and have things to get in each one of them so I won’t spawn in every tank that I can if I don’t see a positive outcome to do so.
I don’t even understand enemy teams getting stomped that continue to spawn in every vehicles that they can, I mean, maybe if the spawns weren’t so easily camped and had actual cover to use and fight back I would, but 90% of the time you spawn in the open with the enemy behind hard cover just waiting for your invulnerability timer to wear off or that you move far enough for it to dissapear.
The only time I re-spawn when our team is getting spawn-camped is when tickets are almost all gone.
Then I wait for enemies to get close and spawn my vehicle that has best chance at one-shot kills. I usually get one camper before tickets are gone or I’m killed by another. A couple of times I’ve managed to bag 2.
