another BIG change is that the stock grind is gonna be sbstantially improvedt:
tanks will have 1 fire extinguisher and the ability to repair without having parts or FPE mods researched (will take a bit longer to repair without the mod tho)
high tier aircrafts will have the "standard" countermeasure loadout (the single flare one) without having countermeasures researched
ships will be able to repair and put out fires without having parts or FPE researched (again will take a bit longer to repair and put out fires wihtout the mods)
Just scrap the realshitter, put the xp50 at 3.7 w no airspawn and we are good to go
Grind is easuer, but goodluck grindinding in current matchmaker full of XP – 50's, Su – 25's (in video you were literally playing a flareless plane against a Su25 with 30G missiles), and overpowered premium vehicles (like USS Moffet lmao) that cant be countered in any way if they know what they're doing, unless you buy a premium vehicle.
Im not coming back to War Thunder until they will fix this unbalanced shit that still forces you to pay so you can counter those vehicles.
Im seriously tired of facing US teams full of XP – 50's that just climb into space and dive on you without giving you a single chance of surviving, having the highest climb rate at its br and an air spawn for some reason.
Oh god, just saying words "premium vehicle" already makes me sick at that point
In my opinion, I don't agree with the forgive feature. There has been several times where I lock an enemy in my f14 and launch a sparrow, and then it kills a teammate even when they are not locked. I have a feeling that even though they know it was an accident people will rage and not forgive you. This is just my opinion from what I understand about the patch.
(8:00) In my opinion, I do not think the apology mechanic is too much punishment for a teamkill, especially when compared to what we have currently.
From my experience, if you teamkill someone on accident, the player tends to forgive you if you apologize(especially if you are respectful to people in chat, as you should).
In the off chance that they aren't forgiving you, getting kicked is still, honestly deserved. Our carelessness is what caused it, its always a preventable situation.
cool chat message at 2:00 🤣
A lot of rank 5 planes have a reward of 380% for sl which is actually pretty good so learning jets won’t hurt my bank as much when I die.
Today I got 114,000 SL in my A-10 from killing 1 air target, 15 ground targets, dropped about 1 ton of bombs and had 98% activity. Overall I definitely feel the SL increase MASSIVELY. Could easily make 1 mil+ a day
Oh I also got 22k RP
This is also with the premium a-10 that I got on sale for 30 bucks. I feel like I have earned my money back in SL compared to if I just bought SL flat out. This update is awesome
the snail 😮
So Gaijin knew how to fix the game all this time, and did nothing.
the chat in your match was wild
I don't think they'll risk not doing as they say…. maybe the numbers will get tuned down a LITTLE though not much as they'd get bombed again and this is the ONLY reason they're doing anything currently…. as this terrible rating is likely to lower their potential income.
ong (on god)?
We gon talk about the chat at 3:20 ?
I use the f4c as a bomber and take a hard left around the map to get bases. Ive found if i try boom and zoom or any other type of playstyle i get out manuvered,out runned or just having no flares to be a problem. Im not good at the game although i have my moments. I just want to get to rank 7 and get the f5e and i hopefully will be good to go after a bit of practise. Love the vids seek
The chat still hasn't changed on WT, surprised you didn't cover it
My bmp2m repair cost was 3.5k now it is 8, su23 now is 9k, I just bought it yesterday, it wasn't 9. War thunder changed to worse.
i was play f-104 befor the updat the repar cost was 10k now after the updat its 12k 🙁
I definietly enjoy the game more now. Actually making some money and XP comes nicely
tbf, 70 dollars on one vehicle is in reality 50+ vehicles
I think at the moment this harsh of a tk punishment is needed because of how often it happens. People need to know that even accidental tk's can kick them.
However my favorite change is that the longer you are on a point and capping the more points you get. So no more only points when you capped it no, as you are capping you get points.
This system was originally introduced by battlefield with how you cap points there and it is a very good incentive to make your playerbase care about capping points and will change gameplay styles
I’ll give gaijin a week/month before they slowly switch back to the old economy/system again out of pure greed
Where Can I download this economy you talk about?
I have been playing almost every day and My experience is:
Before La Royale the reverted economy after backlash was 3x better than After the patch dropped.
What they did Is Reduce the Kill reward , but Move back Individual vehicle multiplier to about how they were before the entire scandal.
On paper You can look at stats and see Oh Multipliers are back and nice, But The Base reward is way Lower.
They are again testing what they can slide while you enjoy Sweet words and get away with it.
I have been Grinding Russian Tanks 9.3 American 5.0 and German 6.7.
ALL of them Lose money. Especially without a premium. Where as Before La Royale they were at least Able to stay slightly positive.
For the Same exact amount of kills and caps in a T-72A I used to get 3x more SL.
Maybe for tip Tier Of everything its better since everyone only jerks off to that. But in Reality Lower you can't earn shit.
I started the Chinese and Get 350-450 SL PER KILL. You used to get at least a 1000 SL even on reserves.
So you can fall back and earn something.
Best Example I have is the Russian Premium P-63 that has the Exact same RP and SL multipliers as Before the patch But earn 3x less SL. It was my safety Plane, for when I run out of SL. 3 Kills could Earn you 40K. Now its BR went from 3.7 to 3.3 But It doesn't Earn shit. Now you can Bully Newbs for Zero reward.
"Your missile is your fault"
Or maybe… the radar missile decides to go for a teamate even though the enemy is constantly locked. That's not my fault, its called GAIJINED
bro i cant still 3k rp for battler and I NEED TO RESEARCH A 490K VIECHLE
ground RP multiplayer is so bad it needs buff
Honestly, the SL changes they did suck ass.
90% of my aircraft went from "barely playable" to "literally unplayable" because the repair costs went up even further while SL modifier basically stayed the same.
The TK thing is gonna backfire so hard. Don’t get me wrong, the repair cost portion is great, not sure why it wasn’t like that in the first place, but giving certain people in the warthunder player base the ability to kick others IS going to be exploited, especially when you can ram into someone and then J out to give them a TK
What happened to quiting WT, lmao 😂
Warthunder has beat me down so many times that I don’t trust any good changes, they will slowly bring it back to the old shitty economy by saying shit like “players are progressing too quickly, we want to make sure they don’t run out of content”. I know it will happen.
I mainly play with planes, bec I am not really good with tanks, but jets are feeling so nice, I am farming like 20K per game in my Meteor NF-13, thats also bec I usually play well but still, I was always loosing money with thar plane before the update
Hi, I don't know any of youtube rules or anything like that but in your first clip there were couple nwords in chat so idk if u would get demonetized or something like that, but its just info for you to know
I bought my f5c for $30
Honestly I would be ok if premium allows something like an extra 20-25% extra SL, not like double where it would over incentivize premium usage, instead just being a little extra boost if you want it.
premium vehicles should always have a backup, this will actually solve the 1 death leavers instead of putting a bandaid on the problem.
the forgive mechanic sounds good so far to me ( ofcurse people will abuse it ) but i think as an example if im on a cap with 2-3 enemys and one of my team mates drops a bomb and kills all of us then he did more good then harm imo and i would forgive him !
me watching these vids to write reports on them for my writing class ;skull:
Bro it took me a day to get 1000000 RP with a stock jet with no premium I’m happy about it
You sound a little like joob
I will never understand how you War Thunder players get one small change and already toss all your eggs back in the basket. Genuinely perplexes me.
6:52 a10 nig**
Only other thing I'd like them to do after the realshatter is to sell vehicles individually instead of in packs. I feel like more people would buy premiums if there was also a $40 or $45 option without the Eagles and Premium Account time. Sure, you'd get more people going face first into mid and top tier RB matches with no idea what they're doing, but none of my teams know what they're doing as it is.
This is funny to see how this aged with the shitest summer sale in gaijin history the sale after
Everything they have announced is great but, im going to be that guy when i say that they may pull back on some of things they said that they'd do or shadow phase them out without saying anything, but me and my friends have been having fun, so much so it has motivated me to start uploading to yt again although the 70 dollar packs are flat not worth it cause of the radar missiles are damn near impossible to notch any of the top tier missiles but maybe its a skill issue on my part 😅
no one going to talk about the chat during the first game
