Again,get the Sholef as tradable coupon

Yes.

@sleek fractaldo you know the wt discord leaks the vehicles upcoming to the game?

sleek fractal
#

No

#

I dont care

#

It will be stupid stuff nobody needs anyway that results in more powercreep

Im very happy that we are far off of that bullshit

Also got a question: so at rank 6 us gets some questionable machinery. Any advice which would be least painful to grind 8.3 with?

beauty of anti heli are the proxy HEAT rounds

yes i used 120s before base m1 Abrams proxy heat so good for taking down helis

eternal zenith
#

So question to y'all: Should there be more spots on the map that would allow players to gain a vertical advantage?

sleek fractal
#

cause in this spot nobody will kill you except CAS if your smart.

eternal zenith
#

hold up, people complain because at this point there's no real reason to have it

#

as in they block or red out areas that could be used for advantage anyways

short forum
#

hi war thunder players (with rizz)

sleek fractal
#

The community is just dumb

eternal zenith
#

who are those people kek

sleek fractal
#

thats the whole issue

#

im so glad they downvoted those camo nets and shit

#

that stuff hilariously BAD

#

and in the beginning they voted FOR IT

eternal zenith
#

meanwhile gai reworks the hundredth map to make it so you can't fart in spawn without the other team smelling it

sleek fractal
eternal zenith
#

Oh I remember that now

#

turn it into fortnite for gods sake kekl

#

The ammo box concept is dumb too, but I still believe a resupply mechanic would be interesting

sleek fractal
#

"a resupply mechanic"

#

did you ever stand in a capture point ?

eternal zenith
#

I think I made a forum post about it a couple years ago, deleted by the CM but my suggestion was that certain types of IFV or engineering type vehicles could act as a supply chain off cap point

#

yeah maps we have right now don't allow for this

sleek fractal
#

EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

#

You can resupply in a cap

#

since years

#

nearly a decade

#

all you gotta do is stand in there still

eternal zenith
#

I mean allow for a supply chain type mechanic

sleek fractal
#

Thats easily solved

#

make a dynamic refill area that switches

#

You got A

#

no refill area

#

Enemy got B

#

Refill area towards your spawn

#

You got C

#

Enemy has refill area towards his spawn at C

eternal zenith
#

the whole point of logistics would be to be able to hold strategic points, entrenched positions etc.

sleek fractal
#

Yeah but you can refill at the point

#

so it would make no sense putting one there

eternal zenith
#

I know that's how it currently is KekSkew

#

I'm trying to convey the idea of a different type of match

sleek fractal
#

theres so many solutions that make sense

sleek fractal
#

Or make it an Airdrop

#

we got arty already

eternal zenith
#

what does that solve? dynamic refill is just what we have right now but more annoying

#

air drop maybe

sleek fractal
#

it gets added on top

#

how is it annoying to have more areas to restock ?

#

Especialy if it helps you TO DEFEND A SPOT

#

or take one

eternal zenith
#

the way you explained it made me think you want the refill points to change during a match

sleek fractal
#

Yes how they should to direct the player to the active action

eternal zenith
#

or did you mean additional supply spots on top of ABC

sleek fractal
#

i already said ADDED ON TOP

#

not replacing anything

#

it gets additionaly added

#

they wont remove resupply at caps either for the ammo boxes lol

eternal zenith
#

added on top can mean a lot in this context, for all I know you mean a new game mode

sleek fractal
#

were talking about a game mechanic and how to improve it .....

#

Your overthinking

eternal zenith
#

Maybe you're underthinking? snigyes

sleek fractal
#

Nah cause the whole thing is to improve it

#

As said Gaijin wants to improve it with giving certain vehicles the option to place ammo boxes for themself

eternal zenith
#

ok let's take a map as an example, a classic

sleek fractal
#

not replace resupply

eternal zenith
#

poland?

sleek fractal
#

how many cap points ?

#

3 or 1

#

1 give the attacking team 2 resupply points

eternal zenith
#

let's take eastern europe as a reference

sleek fractal
#

thats not poland

eternal zenith
#

yeah I said eastern europe

sleek fractal
#

yeah wait il show you my idea

#

let me draw

#

let me cook

#

LEMME COOK

eternal zenith
#

in this map you have 2 major flanking positions right? the plateau overlooking red and the field below C. Most of the town is just a cqc brawl with people taking shots at either spawn

sleek fractal
#

for example like this

#

dont say it looks like a penis

#

i dare you

eternal zenith
#

so if both points are capped you get additional supply points for the opposing team?

sleek fractal
#

ye

eternal zenith
#

like a handicap

sleek fractal
#

for your team cause your at advantage

eternal zenith
#

First thought is, are supply points necessary in this map?

sleek fractal
#

Are ammo boxes ?

eternal zenith
#

not really kek

sleek fractal
#

Thats what they need to figure out since map balance is shit

eternal zenith
#

on any map if we're being honest

sleek fractal
#

especialy SINCE map balance is shit

#

Did you read what the ammo boxes will do ?

eternal zenith
#

now if we take this map, the circled parts are rarely played

sleek fractal
#

theres always 1 or 2 people

eternal zenith
sleek fractal
#

The circled areas are not rarely played.

#

Putting a refill spot there would reward camping-

#

and spawn sniping

#

you can shoot

eternal zenith
#

they are being used but it's not like you actively fight over them like you do with the cap points, naturally

sleek fractal
#

like literaly

#

thats why this map is so shit

#

Red spawn is always fucked smh

eternal zenith
#

I mean if we go that route then same can be said for blue KekSkew

#

man this map is shit. why did I chose this

sleek fractal
#

Theres many one sided maps where on spawn is just horrible

#

Lets just say ... whatever were discussing

#

nothing will change the real problems of this game

eternal zenith
#

I kinda lost my train of thought

sleek fractal
#

one death leavers in Premiums and low tier trolls in higher tiers

#

also shitty playerbase

#

that all will never change

eternal zenith
#

what's the issue with low tier being used high tier?

#

besides the team disadvantage I mean

sleek fractal
#

Its useless

#

God mode ? Yeah sure lol those few SL

#

you get no reward neither RP or real SL for kills.

#

Except for God mode which is an ancient medal for Air when we had Tier 1-20

#

it was never ment for that.

eternal zenith
#

I think that's taking it too serious, like the main reason I bring a low tier tank into rank V-VII is because it's actually fun

sleek fractal
#

Sure and i surely cant have fun with a 15cm gun on its BR clueless

#

Issue is the skill level of these players is absolute dogshit

#

And theres already a MM blocking mechanic in this game if the BR is higher than 1 in difference

#

they just need to apply it

eternal zenith
#

What would be the drawback of rewarding players with a BR disadvantage from getting adjusted SL / RP gain?

eternal zenith
#

bring a Pz IV into a MBT match and slay a couple high tier tanks? That speaks of skill, doesn't it?

sleek fractal
#

They wont do this,theres severe penalties for a reason

sleek fractal
#

One dumbass is luckier than the other

eternal zenith
#

so it all doesn't matter then?

#

I'd say T-90 vs Leo 2 fights take less skill than T-34 vs Pz IV fights

#

I get it that's kinda the whole point of having the fancy optics, laser rangers etc

#

My main point I'm trying to bring is to let people be creative.

sleek fractal
#

Yeah,let them be creative without handicapping the team

#

Cause most people dont have the skill to be creative

#

Or have an intend to troll

#

Pe8 at 13.7 huurrrr durrr funnnyyyyy

eternal zenith
#

"the team" is something I find ridiculous anyways. You get paired with random idiots all the time, there's not going to be a chance to have a team most of the time

#

would be a different story if you had the same lineup of people for multiple stages

sleek fractal
#

Core issue of this community clueless

eternal zenith
#

I think that could be worked around tho. Have some way of sticking together, similar how other titles did it

sleek fractal
#

Still,you cant carry 8 Idiots with a 4 man most of the times.Except in Air

sleek fractal
#

But people dont wanna win in WT they still think one death leaving is more rewarding than 15 minutes of playing while its obviously isnt

#

It really isnt kekl

eternal zenith
#

see I think that could be changed if you had something like a team vote or smth, multi stage matches with the same lineup with bad players being kicked off and rerolled

sleek fractal
#

Like MWO

#

Thats what i would like for map rotation etc

eternal zenith
#

no idea about mwo

sleek fractal
#

3 maps,you can vote for them and if your map doesnt get selected your vote counts more up to 5 times

eternal zenith
#

but you get the idea, right? 3 map lineup, same team. maybe some balancing inbetween

sleek fractal
#

And you can choose to play further or change your mech

eternal zenith
#

yeah sounds fun

sleek fractal
#

Yep basicly mwo

#

Except mwo is niche

#

But the system works well

#

Its really fun

eternal zenith
#

if it was similar to this then I'd understand people cry about teams. In the current state it's just silly

sleek fractal
#

You play a shitty map once or twice but then your vote weighs so much that you usualy get a liked map

#

Iirc its also 12v12

#

So it just works

eternal zenith
#

btw. do you think the devs have some emotional connection to some of the community hated maps and that's the reason they don't allow for more control of which one to play?

sleek fractal
#

Probably

#

That white fortress map is in the rework

eternal zenith
#

"I worked hard on it, can't you appreciate how nice the town looks?"

sleek fractal
#

I hate ot with a passion

eternal zenith
#

I did hate it when it was in rotation but looking back it was pretty nice

sleek fractal
#

Spawncamping was fun clueless

eternal zenith
#

I think I still played the puma on it

#

right, sit on top of the tower points and look straight into spawn

Lmao.

I'm pretty sure they just outsource the Map development to random people.
"Here, can you make a pretty map for our game?"
"Sure, what game is it?"
"That doesn't matter. Just make it."

opaque mica
#

Behold
The wall of Maus

eternal zenith
#

We been talking about entrenchment and stuff but with the maus you're really just a moveable piece of cover

opaque mica
#

They stood there the whole match

#

And they were very helpful, actually

jaunty condor
#

Lol.

opaque mica
#

Still moveable, just with a bit more effort

#

On an unrelated note, I love the AMX-10P

#

Shit's funny

eternal zenith
#

Even the thickest AP rounds don't pen enough to go through maus and armor

damn nice

#

ill grind only 3 lines then

ruby rain
#

I have counted the planes in lines 1, 2, 3 and they are enough for every rank

sleek fractal
sleek fractal
#

I explained to you why

#

4th line is god tier CAS

#

A-10s,A4,A7 etc

ruby rain
#

Im more interested in compensating for USA's lack of useful AA

eternal zenith
#

50 on pretty much every tank

ruby rain

#

and in my experience, is quite random if it'll do anything at all

jaunty condor
#

You ALWAYS see them in SQB's.

#

I think we just ran against a team with 2 M247's, a Bagel, and a Type 93.
Insane AA net with that comp.

eternal zenith
jaunty condor
#

It's required in SQB lol.

#

Scimi's and Su-7's will pulverize any ground team without AA.

serene birch
serene birch
# ruby rain why?

man is either trolling or behind on the meta 4th line aint worth it anymore

#

1st and 2nd lines are the only ones id worry about and id heavily lean into the first

#

get the F-84s in the 2nd line and maybe the F-4C and then move to the F-5E and use that until the F-16s

ruby rain
#

this is where I'm at

serene birch
#

same with the corsairs

#

i used the D-28 as CAS for so long

#

i used it even at 5.7

#

until I got the P-47M

ruby rain
ruby rain
serene birch
#

but you can definitely venture into the naval shit

#

F8U with the BR changes is back to being goated

#

sabres arent as good as they once were with the FM change but they can still go pretty fast so i use them to just fly by shoot and fly away

serene birch
ruby rain
#

right

serene birch
ruby rain
#

F9F's?

serene birch
#

i mean fletchers are good aerial superiority but thats a whole new boat

serene birch
#

just get your speed up and go in shoot once and bug out

#

rinse and repeat

#

theyre decently speedy and the cannons are great but theyre gonna get memes by a mig-15 or mig-17

ruby rain
#

I'm having a bad time in the P-51C-10

serene birch
#

i dont like the C but i love all the Ds

#

theyre good energy fighters tho

ruby rain
#

It's supposedly a boom-n-zoom'er but it hardly has any boom and the zoom works only if the enemy actually stops chasing you

#

It's described as "outstanding" in the wiki but man...

#

I don''t see howq

serene birch
#

i also dont really enjoy it for the same reasons

#

ive done well but that was me sweating and picking my battles wisely

ruby rain
#

I eventually got kinda good at the P-36A bc it can turnfight

serene birch
#

ye P-36 is great i love it

#

you might like the corsairs tho

#

given those a go?

#

they can turn pretty well and have some good engines

ruby rain
#

ok

serene birch
#

just use flaps and dont rate fight

#

you can turn a couple of times before you drop speed

#

still same idea just energy fight

ruby rain
#

F4U-1A?

serene birch
#

yeah i love that thing

#

2.7 beast

#

also later down the line F8Fs are good

#

especially the one with the cannons

#

small, fast, turns suspiciously well for how fat it is

ruby rain
#

I just landed onto a carrier for the 1st time KEK

#

in test flight

serene birch
#

very based

#

very sad carriers are basically non existent in air rb :(

#

the maps that have them are rare in the rotation

#

bring back the constant US vs Japan maps pls gaijin

ruby rain
serene birch
#

for the corsair? dont be above 400kph

#

raised flaps are the regular state of flaps after taking off so if you wanna return to normal pop it to raised

#

some aircraft have combat which are designed for dogfighting moments

#

also gaijin when the fuck are we getting the B-25B modified to be like the Doolittle version

#

slap it at 2.7

#

no guns hella fuel and only 4 bombs

ruby rain
#

why did this go gray??

#

its wasnt even overheating

ruby rain
serene birch
#

means you either ran out of WEP

#

or youve exceeded the altitude your WEP works at

#

(yes aircraft can run out of wep, at least some can)

serene birch

#

I didn't need those anyway

sleek fractal
sleek fractal
#

Its just that Bullpups never got nerfed and in general most of the line is pretty enjoyable as CAS.Especialy the A-10 on its still to low BR with Aim9L

#

The Super Harrier was nice til the BR changes KekStressed

serene birch
#

therefore the brainless american main wannabe chimps flock to it

sleek fractal
#

If you break it down to that,thats true

#

Especialy in AirRB

serene birch
#

most players dont play them its only the people who first get them and try them out that really do

#

that or people trying to spade them

sleek fractal
#

The techtree i mean

#

Fuck the prem A10

serene birch
#

A-4B is meh its just a shittier A-4E at the same BR so you might as well just wait out the squadron points for it

#

A-10 late is 10.7 which for the speed it goes? it aint great

sleek fractal
serene birch
#

what

#

Su-25s are faster than the A-10 wdym

sleek fractal
#

Let me write madge1

#

Compared to fighters the speed is shit,yet you can lob all your ATGMs outside of AA range

#

Yes you can do that with the F4C too

#

But eh.... F4C

#

Shouldnt be at that BR

serene birch
#

these at 10.7

sleek fractal
#

111A is horriblr

serene birch
#

A-6E is also slow but it gets far better armament

sleek fractal
#

Tram is also shit

serene birch
sleek fractal
serene birch
#

no?

#

its got flares broski

#

thats the F-105

sleek fractal
#

Since when?

serene birch
#

since always

#

the F-105 only has chaff

sleek fractal
#

Ok still nobody plays it

serene birch
#

cause its at the end of the bomber line which is p much pointless

sleek fractal
#

At least i havent seen any lately privatThink

serene birch
#

also for the tram? its got a magic trick up its sleeve

sleek fractal
#

Also its fat and meh

serene birch
#

max fuel

sleek fractal
#

Spawning without anything

serene birch
#

go in use your CCIP/RP to drop bombs and fuck outta there before anyone can touch you

#

if they try? flares

sleek fractal
#

AA touches you

#

Ground AA

serene birch
#

dump them and run dude. you dont HAVE to keep them just because you dont have a target

#

fly high

sleek fractal
#

Nah lol

serene birch
#

the thing gets 8 3000lbers and you get bullpups too if thats your cup of tea

sleek fractal
#

I wanna see you in 6km hight finding out whats friendly and what not

serene birch
#

woah almost like 3000lbers negate the whole accuracy thing

#

look at where the fighting is roughly taking place

sleek fractal
#

On the ground

serene birch
#

drop 1 or 2

#

yes?

#

traceers shocked

sleek fractal
#

And miss

#

You think cat plays at 4k?

serene birch
#

thats a forgiving amount of room for death

sleek fractal
#

Yeah but you mean fly high.

#

You need to be at 10km to avoid AA

serene birch
#

yeah well youre kinda boned regardless becasue russian aa

#

but also

#

theres a pretty cool tactic which works in WT

#

lobbing

sleek fractal
#

Requires skill

serene birch
serene birch
sleek fractal
#

Do tell

serene birch
#

literally ANY???

sleek fractal
#

Theres like 2

serene birch
#

it tells you where your bombs are gonna land

sleek fractal
#

Noooo i mean your picture

serene birch
#

you look at it. you go "ok" and pull up, wait for the marker to line up as youre looping and ditch bombs

#

that picture is just a general example

sleek fractal
#

Yeah which doesnt work

serene birch
#

it works on flat terrain because youre then flying AWAY from the spaa which greatly reduces their range because they have to fly to catch up and not intercept

#

yes it do my brochacho, if you suck at it it may just be a skill issue

sleek fractal
#

Like what is this discussion.Cat is a complete Air noob KekStressed

serene birch
#

woah almost like practice makes perfect

#

telling him not to do xyz because hes bad is just like saying

#

"dont make a meringue cause you cant"

#

??? give it a go until you get it

sleek fractal
#

I did not but he told you he dont want to do sweaty cas

serene birch
#

yeah and besides i was just responding to you about CAS and the A-7s and etc not being a good choice

sleek fractal
#

Thats why i recommended the A-10 late line

serene birch
#

cause theyre not

sleek fractal
#

Literaly just point and click from distance

serene birch
#

wow the A-10 late doesnt even get GBUs

#

thats.... sad as fuck

serene birch
#

get a city map? have fun with that

sleek fractal
#

Just go up at 11km

serene birch
#

A-10s cannot climb well enough and do not sustain enough energy to go up and go down

#

yeah spend 10 mins climbing to 10km just to dive and lose like 1.5km height each time

sleek fractal
#

But city maps also beat tge purpose of lobbing

#

Especialy if buildinga block your explosive range

#

So eh

serene birch
#

not really because bomb timers exist you odnt have to have your bombs go off when they hit the ground

#

they can hit a building and fall

#

your maverick hits a building and goes pop

serene birch
#

bombs are far more reliable on most maps even though you get fewer

sleek fractal
#

Not since the buff

serene birch
#

consistent is much better than having more

sleek fractal
#

Mavericks kill consistant now

serene birch
#

yeah unles they miss, fall short, hit an obstacle

sleek fractal
#

Just like bombs

serene birch
#

it takes some shocking amount of anti-skill to miss with a GBU

#

unless youre using the A-10 which is too slow to actually use GBUs from anything other than height

#

but thats why the A-6E is better with its AGM/GBUs

#

cause its a funny lil hybrid of the GBU-III with a rocket engine on it

sleek fractal
#

I lost the point of this whole discussion.Like it started with grind these 3 lines in the TT then your good,now it is about the A6E is best CAS

serene birch
#

im not saying its the best CAS

#

its better than the A-10

#

you came here responding to me saying the A-10 line is the best CAS line, which its not

sleek fractal
#

Imho it is

#

You got a different opinion

#

Fair

serene birch
#

its technically THE CAS line but most other things around those BRs are just better to use

sleek fractal
#

A6E is not worth buying.

serene birch
#

no cause you know why? who needs a slow ass CAS plane that is useless the second its out of ordinance when you can play something .3 BR higher than can be an absolute monster at air superiority

serene birch
sleek fractal
#

Nah

#

Late

#

TT

serene birch
#

that one only gets AGMs lol

sleek fractal
#

And?

#

Your so trimmed on "whats best"

serene birch
#

on the A-10 the AGMs are really not good

sleek fractal
#

The best is the thing that makes fun to play

serene birch
sleek fractal
#

I think it is cause its a lot of fun

serene birch
#

ok then state you have the MOST fun with it, not that its THE BEST

sleek fractal
#

Il do next time

#

I still think its the best

serene birch
#

if i came in saying the BT-7 is THE BEST tank to use at 11.7 cause i have more fun with that than any top tier tank

#

you'd say i was wrong too

sleek fractal
#

Id say your trolling

#

And that they should enforce the mm restriction

serene birch
#

they shouldnt

#

thats just a fun police cope

sleek fractal
#

They should,its already ingame

serene birch
#

and i thought you were all about fun

serene birch
sleek fractal
#

God mode is a relict of tier 1-20 times

serene birch
#

and you can always uptier yourself by bringing a higher tier plane

sleek fractal
#

You can downtier yourself in Arcade with a trick

serene birch
#

i mean if it was a relic they wouldnt clearly state BR in it

sleek fractal
#

I dont know if it was Naval or Sim but the restriction there is a good one

serene birch
#

if it was kill a vehicle X ranks above your own then yeah fair it'd prolly be a solid argument

#

but gaijin has put a tiny amount of effort into changing the text

sleek fractal
#

Il explain it that way,if it was a valid thing and not just for the medal why do they heavily penalise you for doing it?

serene birch
sleek fractal
serene birch
#

30k for 1 kill on a higher BR vehicle isnt a penalty lol

sleek fractal

Leo2a7 1200% modifier pz2 120% modifier

serene birch
#

yes.

#

because it scales with your rank with the way theyve coded the game

sleek fractal
#

That pz2 gets a few hundred RP at most -90% like literaly nothing

serene birch
#

if they just showed both giving you 120% people would complain their pz ii doesnt earn the same as their leo 2 despite the fact they technically would be respectively

#

RELATIVE it gives the same reward

#

they just bump the numbers up to give you neuron activations when you grind cause bigger number = better. borderlands does it too

sleek fractal
#

The point is its literaly useless doing it..... just for that 30k? Could aswell remove it

serene birch
#

the point is to reward the "skill" involved (if there is any or not is debatable and highly dependant on the situation)

sleek fractal

Like those Bt7 or puma first spawns for a cap are stupid

Yes you do it different

serene birch

they mostly do it for the SP to get into aircraft

most of the premium ones yeah. and the lvl 5s that are dragged into the top tier matches

No its contraproductive cause it aint contributing to better gameplay

i dont even care about 1 death leavers anymore too much effort to stress about it

in fact ditch ALL hobbies as a whole

sleek fractal

Nah cause hobbies are not always time wasting

#

You can create stuff

serene birch
#

yeah but 99% of the time that stuff does not get recognized

#

so statisically its not important, especially not compared to a career

sleek fractal
#

It does especialy on Etsy when you sell it

#

Theres really good stuff

serene birch
#

oh yeah cause etsy sellers have such a good track record of making it big Clueless1Clueless2

sleek fractal
#

Its a hobby

serene birch
#

yeah as i said its not recognized 99% of the time. especially not in compared to your career

sleek fractal
#

Gettimg recognised doesnt mean you make it big

serene birch
#

if youre so worried about "wasting time" give it all up. most hobbies are meant to fill your time that you have to waste

why care when it gets wasted

#

oh no you have to play a game you clearly enjoy

#

oh noooo

sleek fractal
#

We talked about recognition

#

Not making it big or being successfull

serene birch
#

making it big is being recognized/famous my gamer

sleek fractal
#

Also i love my job my statement was obvious sarcasm

serene birch
#

being successful is achieving your goals

Recognition is already being happy that somebody is buying the stuff you make as a hobby lol

serene birch
#

im sorry but youre not "recognized" for your work if 5 people buy your product on etsy

Your recognised by those 5 people

serene birch

theres a reason theres a whole thing called "recognized brands"

If your not happy with it thats your issue

its not the same recognized we're tlaking about

Thats why i took Etsy as an example

serene birch
#

being recognized and being recognized sounds the same but is very different in things like that

#

you can be recognized at work for things you do and yeah thats recognition. you selling 5 pairs of genericplastic is not recognition

#

its acknowledgement

sleek fractal
#

Mhhhh na

#

That makes less sense than recognition

#

Translated in my understanding and the meaning of words

serene birch
#

mostly cause english is a dumb as hell language but thats the way it is

#

english is great hyper_clown definitely not 3 languages in a trenchcoat pretending to be its own

serene birch
#

think of it this way, someone sees a sign of the crocs brand on a billboard theyre gonna go: "oh they make those foam shoes"

they see your own branding and they go "who what"

# sleek fractal Like those Bt7 or puma first spawns for a cap are stupid

Puma (Sd.Kfz.234/2) is the only "light tank" in the german tech tree in the BR range between 3.7 and 6.7 that can perform scouting. The next tank in that line with the same capabilities is LeKPz M41, but it's less mobile. There's a 4(6) gap of tanks between those two. If you play light tanks as a recon, Puma is literally the only vehicle at your disposal for that role for a long time, until you get put into something that I personally believe is inferior in that role

sleek fractal
#

Why would i take a fucking Puma into 11.7?????????

opaque mica
#

Because it's fast

sleek fractal
#

Tell me

No

Its bullshit lol

In 11.7 you die to one hit anyway, might as well drive fast doing it

sleek fractal
#

Yeah might as well get no rewards while playing

opaque mica
#

At 11.7 I no longer go in for the rewards

sleek fractal

I do because when i play that BR to unlock other vehicles that high or something they added later

234/2 is also the most "advanced" wheeled vehicle in the German tree, if we not count FlaRakRad

That is not on the list of the people pushing shitty vehicles up in the BR til Gaijin fixes or up BRs them to prove a point KekStressed

Like if you dont kill anything with that M41 Dart it aint your fault.It just makes Ammo red and has no spalling

And that happened to the italien sabre

#

once.

opaque mica
#

Just once. It's an event that can happen only time time. And it has already happened

serene birch
#

truly the most event of all time

#

it is funny to see the noobs panic when i turn a full circle and get on their ass

ruby rain
#

I've been thinking about a ground gamemode that goes something like this:

Cargo pull

There is a heavy container or train car full of gold or big piece of tech (whatever) that needs to be dragged (via the towing feature) to a point to win the game.
The container's start position is on the map but not the current position, but it does leave behind a permanent clearly visible drag mark.
If a player starts or stops dragging the container, his team is alerted (on the map and a message) but not the enemy team.
Because the container is very heavy and not on wheels, light and fast vehs (Eland, Wiesel etc) can't drag it well or at all. (Depends on weight and HP of veh)
The container can be dragged by multiple vehs, both in paralell and in series, to expedite the process.
The container can't be destroyed.

a) The container's starting position is in the middle of the map and it has to be dragged to one of the spawn areas (obv the team whose spawn it was dragged to wins)
b) The container's starting position is on one edge of the map and has to be dragged to a point on the opposite edge (the team whose member(-s) deliver the container to the point wins)

Failure to deliver the cargo causes both teams to lose.
Possibly ground vehs are allowed 3 or so respawns (not counting backups).

I think such a gamemode would need new or reworked maps to work. sadge

opaque mica
#

The "lower everyone's win ratio with one change" gamemode

#

Nobody would play the objective, people already have issues with playing the good old point capture

#

They would just rush the enemy spawn to grind some kills and then wonder why they lost anyway

#

Plus making it impossible for light vehicles to tow the cargo could result in situations where one team still can't win despite having an advantage, because all of their players are in light vehicles and they don't have enough spawn points / spare vehicles to use something heavier

#

It could be an event gamemode, but not a permanent one

#

Nobody would want to play it if it were permanent

#

And if it were played only on specific maps, then I bet those would be the most banned maps in the game kek

sleek fractal
#

Its like the extra cap points that came with crashed planes etc

#

Dumb,thats why they removed it.

ruby rain
#

ok nvm yep

eternal zenith
#

or what was it the china tuber use for their weird repair videos?

#

jaunty condor
jaunty condor
#

Rush essentially boiled down to Attackers and Defenders.
Attackers attack 1 or 2 capture points, and once they capture them, the defenders need to fallback to the next set of capture points.

#

Attackers have a limited pool of tickets to spawn from.

ruby rain
#

that could be good hmm

jaunty condor
#

It WAS good lol.
The event they did for it was great. Shook up the gameplay without being something entirely different.

#

Now that I think about it.
Enlisted does this.

There was an event a couple years ago, yeah.

I think it ran for a week or something like that.

eternal zenith
#

I stopped playing, mainly because I was too embarrassed for a while kek

#

but then the itch started...

opaque mica
#

I've noticed that every time there's a change in the game, everyone is offended and they dislike the change. Even if it's something that is a genuinely good change

#

Like for example
Yesterday, there was a bug that made it impossible to use universal backups while you were already in a game. So I decided to check if it wasn't a bug but an intended feature. I stumbled upon a forum thread from the time the feature was added, and people were upset because now they will be able to use up their backups by accident and it was done specifically so that they would stop hoarding them

opaque mica
#

They "fixed" it today, but I didn't test it out yet

sleek fractal
#

I see.But yesterday is quite random it appeared sometime but not very often

#

at least for me

opaque mica
#

But we had it happen to us when we were playing as a trio, and as soon as the third friend left the bug left as well KekSkew

#

So the rest of the time, when I was playing with just one friend, we were joking that his average 5.7 ass was denying us the use of our backups

mbt-2000 is basically a t-90 crossed with the leopard 2, very good firepower with DTCO-10, worse fcs(gen1). Mid armor, and a much better reverse gear
