I’m glad this game caters to all kinds of folks, but I certainly don’t agree with your stance or motivations. When I join a battle - downtier, uptier, bad map, bad team, late spawn, whatever - I am there til the end. I will try work with my team, and I’ll keep spawning vehicles until I no longer can. Some of the best battles I have had have come in games where it looks like there is no hope, heck some of them I’ve been quickly nuked by the enemy and then I hang in there and turn the game around for myself and the team.
For example - had a game the other day, stuck on a team with a whole bunch of newly-minted Maus, who were uptiered to 8.7. Not surprisingly, most of our team chose to hang around the Maus and entirely neglected the other flank. I went the other flank and got absolutely destroyed in my first and second spawns with hardly anything to show for it. I then went on to kill 15 of their vehicles in a tank I didn’t even like to use (M48A2 G A2) and we ended up winning. I ended up dying 4 times and still made bank in SL and RP. I could have easily just given up on the game, but it ended being a really good battle in the end.
People who 1 death leave, and people who just give up on games are the ones ruining this game. Not Gaijins balance. Not Gaijins matchmaking. Not Gaijins economy. It is you that is the problem.
Playing a 6.7 WW2 heavy and get put into a 7.7 game? Leave.
Playing 3 unstabilized lights at 7.7 and get put into a city map against stabilized 8.7s? Leave.
Playing top tier air and get small spain/ small afghan/ city? Leave.
Playing 12.7 and get 13.7? Leave.
Honestly i only match quit at the start for one and only one reason: Bad Maps!
Althought in ARB i usually only zero death quit when it is a very bad map, such a EC Afeghanistan, or the pillars map when there is heavy clouds and mist, and i know it will become a Tom and Jerry game trying to find the last enemies and not crash into a sudden pillar in front of you.
I find myself match quitting more often in Ground RB, where i’m not willing to drive for 5 minutes to get sniped across the map and do it again just to find 2 or 3 flankers already spawn camping behind cover and outside the spawn detection zone, these depressing maps such as Fields of Poland (Big map, the small poland is fine) and Big European Province (again, small one is fine, big one is pain, specially in battle mode) are an insta quit for me, even if i’m with a booster, the pain is not worth it.
A very emotive chat topic, you poked the ODL hornets nest as bad as talking about religion or politics in the real world.
Basically the game is flawed and it is designed to be like that, to encourage spending you will be put in situations which are unwinnable as an individual or a team.
Gaijin actively encourage the process with high tier vehicle sales and not very clear or subjective advertising, someone wants to be the god of the battlefield in the advertised well known vehicles. Only to find they have to work through tiers of vehicles they have no interest in, and wonder why they are starting their game in some inter war clown tank.
They buy the premium and get destroyed time and time again, Gaijin have made their sale and now have no interest in retaining that player, only creating problems that they have the solution to sell to them, acing the crew, lions for crew training etc.
Ah yes if you are on 8.3s except MiGs and Sabres and rejecting against F-104, MiG-19, J-7II, and A-4N matchups is not Gaijins balance fault.

BTW, people hate C&P vehicles, but for me I don’t hate them that much because I can bypass the crew lock and reenter the queue in the same vehicle, just like MiG-15bis/J-2, MiG-17/J-4, MiG-17PF/Lim-5P, Hunter F.1/J34 etc.
(Not even worth debating someone complaining about an uptier, btw. Only a fraction of yours and the enemy team will be 9.3 if you’re 8.3 - that means you’ll have people on your team there to deal with the other 9.3. This is a team game. Sometimes you’re not going to be the top-dog. Just make it work).
Today definitely not giving a crap about crewlock, I would just drop by Sherdog forum to read what people says about Mike Tyson vs Jack Paul circus, and tomorrow is Jon Jones vs Stipe, hopefully not running out of beer soon. Crewlock away lol
I think it takes luck/skill to win those matches but not impossible.
Like I went 15+2(air) and 2 on ground the other day and 2 caps on an A+B(team death match basically) map and won’t it. But that was a hit of skill+luck. It’s fun when you win those matches(more so when single handily almost), but I basically never expect to win those matches. All the more sweeter when you do though!
That said, I think I’d get my s*^# pushed in when having an up tier in air. That’s why I only play top tier U.S. lol. Ain’t no one higher foo!
This one looks good, does it un-fk the recent sound update that it increased the volume level back to normal?
Speaking of sounds, I only have a very little experience in using Adobe Audition, used to make some videos and replace the sounds of video but it was a long time ago.
Note that these assets are only being put into use once a year, like what a waste lol why don’t they implement a custom hangar feature that allows use to fully customize everything to appear in there? or maybe make it a premium feature and they could make some money selling some exclusive items for people who have too much money to spend. I know hangar mod exists but modding takes time.
