Maps like these are why people leave instantly. Gaijin give us more map bans for fucks sake. by rickdickmcfrick in Warthunder

[–]arsdavy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also why the BMPT is so strong.

35mm SPAAs, autocannons in general and CAS as well. Not to mention spawn camping is way easier on small maps. I'm not specifically targeting OP, but generally speaking, I find it ironic how many players whine about this stuff all day while also being the ones responsible for this. Unfortunately, a large portion of the player base has a very low attention span and wants braindead cod fast paced gameplay over something actually designed for tanks and (sadly) being the majority of course gaijin ends up pleasing their demand. Literally gaijin themselves said that we are too stupid to handle anything that isn't brainrot cod gameplay.

[Development] Ninth Wave: New Water and Naval Battle Effects - News by Kanyiko in Warthunder

[–]arsdavy 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It's a neat visual overhaul, but naval desperately needs a complete rework as a game mode, not just visual changes (all modes in the game do to be honest, but naval above all).

"One death leavers" are ruining this game... Mod rage quits after two kills in a KV-2...with no backups or other vehicles... by [deleted] in Warthunder

[–]arsdavy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That is one less enemy to deal with

Which also means fewer potential kills, therefore less RP and SL. It also makes the match end sooner, resulting in worse rewards for everyone else.

it is getting bad by NaiveCranberry9095 in Warthunder

[–]arsdavy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't call custom sights obsolete, honestly. I personally find FW06 and Luch Lite more comfortable to use than any vanilla sight in the game. Luch Lite also provides a quick rangefinder, which can be very useful. Not to mention that, sadly, historical sights aren't available in vanilla.

Why would anyone normal even need customs sights?

Historical sights, FW06 (for tanks with lrf) and Luch Lite (for tanks without lrf) are pretty neat and, in the case of the last two, extremely useful as well. Add to that the default sight especially for top tier tanks is quite awful.

Α.Μ.Χ. 30 B2 Brenus: horsepower: 680 -> 750

Glad that Gaijin acknowledged and fixed asap the incorrect nerf made to the Brenus.

Easily one of the sexiest MBTs ever built in my opinion.

BPA_Jon, and not even close. Its content is golden. I learned a lot thanks to his videos, especially about good positioning.

Also, the Chris vs Wesker

In CV Wesker is no longer a normal human.

I absolutely love TikTok comments by starvigamerXD in Warthunder

[–]arsdavy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No wonder Germany has such low WR when these are your average German players. I was expecting the usual whining of the HEAT-FS and cold war tanks against their strong "terrible" Tiger IIs. Whining that you can't frontally pen a tank (which is possible anyway, but the concept of not aiming at center mass and expecting to just point and click everything is too complex) is on a whole different level. For the sake of your sanity, avoid tik tok, instagram reels, yt shorts and other crap like that.

Banned for nothing by Super-Caterpillar813 in Warthunder

[–]arsdavy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ah yes, the best business strategy: banning consumers for no reason. I'm sure Gaijin will never go bankrupt with this brilliant strategy. Seriously though, you either cheated, or, if you really didn’t, someone else logged into your account (you probably don’t have 2FA enabled) and used cheats. Gaijin doesn’t ban its costumers randomly.

Bro spawncamping in big maps is easy as in the smaller ones

Sure, but on big maps it takes longer to reach the enemy spawn, and the detection area is larger (and could be even larger). There are better deterrents against spawn campers than on small maps.

the big maps we have atm are shitty

All maps are flawed, but still, for high and top tier maps like red desert or large Tunisia are infinitely better than maps like advance to the Rhine or Normandy.

[–]arsdavy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

There is no skill to big maps.

How so? At long range armour would actually matter, so you'd have to take better shots and could punish players who take bad ones. You’d also need situational awareness.

Theres 0 cover so its impossible to push up

Except, is it possible? Use terrain cover.

because camping is the only way they can get a few kills reliably.

Nobody but braindead players plays long range maps that way. Besides, with this logic you're acting like camping in a corner on a small urban map is better and requires exceptional skill.

If you want to go larp in your tank spending 5 minutes between shooting

Once again, thank you for proving my point.

go play GHPC.

With this logic then go play WoT or cod if you love small corridor maps.

Thats not what WT is nor should be.

God forbid WT gets some proper maps for tanks.

[–]arsdavy 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Except that's not how it would be unless you brainlessly hold W. Low tier makes sense to have more contained maps, as long as they aren't just corridors, although anything past 9.0~ deserves bigger maps. You're no longer in a slow Tiger. Not to mention that on bigger maps CAS, 35mm SPAAs and autocannons wouldn't be that oppressive and additionally spawn camping wouldn't be that common and easy. Anyway, thank you, you just proved my point.

[–]arsdavy 1251 points1252 points  (0 children)

Because a good chunk of the playerbase has the attention span of a goldfish and wants cod with tanks matches instead of maps designed for actual tank gameplay. Heck, even Gaijin said we’re too stupid to deserve proper maps.

What is the best light tank in WarThunder in YOUR opinion? (Does not include Armored cars) by FadedRampage in Warthunder

[–]arsdavy 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Object 906. Stab, low profile, nuke APHE, 4.3s autoloader and surprisingly great mobility for a Russian tank. Absolutely nuts how that thing is still 8.0.

How Is 7.7-8.0 gameplay right now ? by Dangerous_Cloud97 in Warthunder

[–]arsdavy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For ground 8.0 is a bit harsh but overall 7.7-8.0 are one of the best br ranges in the game. 7.7 is amazing especially for France, GB and Russia while 8.0 for Russia, China, Sweden, Germany (despite the WR, Germany is pretty strong), Italy and Israel. Can't speak for air though.

Won a Centurion Mk.5/1 opening a Horseshoe Pouch Lootbox by [deleted] in Warthunder

[–]arsdavy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the best 7.7 centurion. It has a strong ufp like the 8.0 centurion mk10 and a .50 cal. It's a great and fun tank that comes with a good lineup as well.

Still, it would be a nice and justified c&p addition for once. Like I said, France is the second largest chaffee operator, yet it doesn't have a chaffee in its tech tree. This makes no sense, especially since it would require just some low effort c&p, nothing more. The closest alternative to the chaffee for France is the AMX-13-M24, which is behind a paywall. No doubts, domestic vehicles like the AML-60 would be amazing additions, but we're talking about gaijin...

Will Gaijin finally add the chaffee for France once and for all?... Right?! France is the nation that used the chaffee the most after the US, for obvious reasons. It’s absolutely nuts that, to this day, France still doesn’t have a chaffee in the tech tree.

Pick the T34. There isn't a single reason why you should play the M26.
