ok first of, all those threads was locked for a reason, they all violated different forum rules, like vulger language or discussing moderation, some was even 6 years old.these people simply didnt know the forum rules. and as stated, some of those people dont understand that warnings accumulate, meaning a stike wont go away, so if you already have 2, all it takes is one word like "ass" to get the tird one and that triggers a ban.
secondly, your thread was about nerfs to the free 2 play stuff, and you point to the repair costs on premium planes??? alrighty then.

and finally, ill add this, i agree with you on this one, https://i.redd.it/m0es4unwd2721.png this was the dumbest move ever, i hope they will reconcider this.

Looks like OP is very much in the minority of people that think this is a horrible nerf. Not much of a stink is being kicked up in the reddit thread either.

Threads regarding this on the official forum are all closed. If you want to argument "people do not consider this to be an issue" then next time try seeing how Gaijin has shutdown everybody voicing their concerns when this change was coming live. You are shilling for them with your ignorance, this is undoubtedly bad for economy yet you keep saying "where are the people complaining" pretending not to know how official/steam forum operates how criticism gets everything hidden and banned.


You have lots of passive players who will nod to every change Gaijin makes. Saying "Russian Bias" is now considered "racism" and "flaming" they are getting rid of criticism in any form.

Rewards get nerfed - proceeds to tell me I have a problem with gameplay.

"It's a great game except for the playing the game part"

This attitude never stops to amaze me. What these people's purpose to even playing the game if they don't enjoy the process?

50 hours in it and finally, I gave up. Its too much of a grind and the new content kinda strong-arms you into paying for it. Sidenote, to me, World of Tanks has better tank combat than Warthunder since the latter's tanks feel like boats. Its commendable for the devs to include all aspects of war but as Darklordjadow1 said, "There is ambitious and there's trying to eat the sun."

im F2p player,no premium account, its isnt as hard to progress as you claim. some will do better than other(skill). improve your skill. youre obviously a horrible player, a result from buying tier 5 premiums and skipping the entire learning proccess. i mean wtf, seriously dude, you thought you could just jump straight into tier 5 and be competitive??? lmao please!
and youre not really a f2p player concidering you have a ton of premium tanks, including XM-1 and helis.

That's the point if not for speeding up I would have dropped this game long ago. Imagine the suffering of the free to play players. It's a great game except for the grinding part.

If you want to complain about anything in War Thunder, it should be the terrible map design.

Spawn killing is a minor inconvenience compared to being constantly exploited through the in-game economy.

Do not get discouraged by people who "enjoy" wasting their lives for grinding or using their wallets to get ahead of you. We are concerned with wast dispersity between free and premium players, and it's only getting bigger. It sounds pretty funny when you try to justify yet another change to the economy like this hitting free players the most saying it was not intentional so you are telling me Bethseda or EA had this sneaked in to sabotage Warthunder? Top kek.

This is what Gaijin is thinking of you = very little they expect you to accept those changes like it's nothing while it will continue to cripple the experience of people with thinner wallets.

On topic, this affects both f2p and premium players so i don't see how this 'nerfs f2p'

it doesn't affect them both equally as these two player groups do not play under the same circimstances.

I personally disliked low tiers. I wouldn't have made it to the top of American tech tree if not for ridiculously cheap to repair premium tank I like playing.

Low tier is best tier. Unless you enjoy getting sniped from your spawn, from an enemy in his spawn. And yes that happens. If you want to complain about anything in War Thunder it should be the terrible map design.

Airframe damage increases drag and slows you down, affecting flight performance.
Wing damage increases drag and reduces lift, affecting flight performance.
Control surface damage... affects flight performance in various ways.
Damage on engine affects flight performance.
Therefore more critical hits, more RP.

The problem that could arise from this, is that players might be less inclined to finish an enemy completely. I can see a scenario where a player shoots a plane and scores a critical hit, then moves on to another plane so they can have a chance to score another critical hit.

There is no nerf here, this seems like a strange workaround for the uncapped RP buff they did a while back.

I'm playing this game for almost 5 years, f2p-style. Still having fun.

Doesn't mean this isn't scummy as fuck, the game isn't a massive grindfest, and paying money is the only reasonable way to progress for the vast majority of people.

Some kids eat paint. Doesn't mean paint tastes good.
