Are you pro-merge, anti-merge, or neutral?

im afraid thats not my personal experience in this, or any multiplayer game since the birth of the multiplayer games. there are always the outliers that max enhance low profile gear,but majority of people naturally trends towards improving the end game equipment, mostly based on efficiency of resources spent.

when the gear requires further expenditure of resources to get it to its best state, players naturally, and logically, tend to keep those resources to enhance the best and most expensive/hard to get gear available.

to put it in mmorpg terms, very high majority of players tend to not max enchant gear that is not BiS, if you understand my example. the max enchants, the most expensive upgrades, always goes and is saved for the best base equipment it can be spent on.

How is it trolling. I am helping the team one way or the other.

The Puma can still fight infantry. And given that vehicles are constantly getting destroyed chances are eventually lighter vehicles will spawn where you’ll be able to fight them. And even then the Puma can still take on various Allied vehicles. Not everything is about frontal pen xD lmao one shot

I know it goes without saying, but the vehicle system is balanced by the enemy’s job to destroy them. It’s like in Stalingrad I have matches where there’s an endless cycle of T-70s, KVs, and T-34s. Your team spawns this, enemy destroys it, your team spawns that, so on and so fourth

Now since we’re all debating vehicle performance and damage, let’s take a hypothetical look at halftracks

Half tracks for all intents and purposes are basically a light tank. No matter what armaments they have, flamethrower, mortar, assault guns, AT guns, AA guns, etc; they are all weakly armored. They can be taken out by pretty much anything

Now what does that mean, we wouldn’t be able to use half tracks in “late game” all because the enemy can easily destroy them. Then what’s the point of half tracks then

That’s why I say all this BR stuff is convoluted and leaning towards bad. I say play as whatever you want (as long as it’s not a time traveling King Tiger)

Agree, I very often still use a Panzer III in Normandy because its very great in infantry support and since there is no point in using Panzer IVs since both are equally bad against Jumbos.

Also fast driving Stuards with with their top mounted MGs are very potent - you just have to avoid the enemy tanks.

if it doesn’t nullify the progress, the customization, the skins, the upgrades, the perks and doesn’t overshadow other factions pros or cons I also personally think it will be an epic disaster for the game I think it was fine there’s this habit of modifying proven aspects that work well while you don’t fix other things that should be fixed but you tend to ruin the experience further

I know I am late but I’m proudly anti merge.
I think that the game was already in a good state before it, and that the merge did not fix any problems, and instead ruined everything.
Before you disagree, let me explain.

Maps
I have played every campaign before the merge and played since release, and I’d like to say that I disliked Normandy the most.
Most of the maps are terrible, and don’t get me started with the horrible Steel Mill maps.
Before then, it was better since you could choose the campaign you enjoy and play it without any problems.
But then now that the merge is here, I’m now forced to play campaigns and maps that I truly despise, which has caused me to desert, ranking me down, and I’m sure some of you have felt the same.

Tech Tree System
We can’t talk about how bad the merge was, without talking about the dreaded tech tree system. As some of you may know, I already play War Thunder and I’m sure most of you do, and are very familiar with the Tech Trees.
I really disliked the new Tech Tree system due to it’s research, regarding Italy.
This is mainly going to apply to the Germany tech tree but whatever.
As you may know, there are many weapons to unlock in these trees, progressing you further to unlock whatever comes next. The problem I have with that is the fact that I don’t want to research any Italian weapons, since they’re pretty much useless, and unreliable in my opinion. I don’t use any Italian squads often.
So they are just a waste of time and Silver to unlock them.
They can genuinely improve that by adding Italy as a sub tree within Germany to save more time and grind less.

Squads
Its pretty self explanatory and obvious that many legacy squads have been removed, including good ones. I’m mainly on about premiums here even though I never spent a single pound on this game.

Summary And Conclusion
I have many other reasons to make but I’m pretty sure you can make out other problems with it.
In summary, I have stated the main problems that has caused a turning point with the game, and severely impacted it.
In conclusion, this is mostly directed to all the pre merge players that feel the same.
And as always, the merge has completely messed up the game, and the sad thing is that it looks like it is here to unfortunately stay.

Post Script
I could’ve just made a post about this but it’s more of a response really.
