I have never opposed AI-generated art, but we should definitely not pay for it.
It’s the April Fools “devblog”. They always do that every year, announcing things like that. I have been on WT long enough to be used to this. But if they do this, then I will admit my mistake.
That’s the thing, they put the awful BP system again to ask for money for the rewards on this event and they decided to offer AI Slop portraits as part of the rewards which you have to pay for to access in full? That’s hilarously awful, of course the main attraction are the guns but it is still a really low blow to ask for money and put AI Stuff on it, they got to do better than this if they want monetary compensation
Mistakes are not important at all, but the introduction of infantry in War Thunder will destroy Enlisted.
That’s what everyone thought, but the Event is about WW1, literally as explained a line below so… who knows ?
It is true we will have to wait and see how the events pan out but the true April Fool’s event over in War Thunder is WW1 and vehicle centered with AI infantry featured in however it is important to note the modern combat trailer and blog post announced that there will be a closed beta test of infantry
I will quote as well one of my previous posts since Gaijin has also a precedent of using April Fool’s as a direct test for new upcoming content such as the MBT/Helicopter event back in 2017
I personally had the theory that the WW1 infantry setting was testing for Enlisted, while the modern infantry setting was testing for Active Matter.
PS: I have been on WT since 4th July 2013, I even remember when there were 20 ranks for planes, lol.
It’s too optimistic. War Thunder is fully capable of creating infantry content, and it doesn’t care about the survival of Enlisted at all. Then again, who really cares?
Why would gaijin have bothered to make the same game twice then ? It would be pretty retarded to include infantry in WT now that Enlisted is out, because you will lose money if you have two games that compete with each other. And it could also break the balance of WT if they do that.
What do you mean? Why would they be testing stuff like that in WT.
And let DF release completely nonsensical event that’s hammered together from various assets that have been rolling around in their “warehouse” for God knows how many years.
Literally the event feels like a mix of various upcoming April fools events.
(One event that was supposed to be themed to mafia. The other event that was supposed to be themed into the wild west…)
So I personally think this is the last april fools event that Enlisted will have.
And that either enlisted will just cease to exist, with the developers already well aware that it is planned to end.
Or those two projects will merge together and WT will just devour Enlisted.
I really don’t see a scenario where some sort of successfully continued development of Enlisted is planned as very realistic.
I’m not even going to comment on how they sell 4 weapon skins for 3000g. What the hell is that, anyway?
lol with a discount that says 26% off but it still cost the same as 750 per gun in the GO shop. sucking the money out of the game
There is a chance they could just simply absorb Enlisted’s content into War Thunder if they fully integrate infantry into that game, Enlisted first started as DF/Gaijin FPS game but it is clear througout the years the game have not harvest the success Gaijin may have hoped for, the Steam release disaster happened as Gaijin tried to recoup loses from the cut Valve takes from sales through Steam but it backed fired so horribly they had to remove the game for a while which was a horrible first impression for many would be new players of the game coming from Steam, then the re-release happened but there was no massive marketing campaign afterwards to prop up Enlisted and have more players, Active Matter was announced and it is clear it’s currently a top priority so it’s possible that Gaijin seeing Enlisted not thriving after all these years may just start packing up their losses and probably looking to get the content of enlisted over to War Thunder, this would also make sense in a business standpoint to have that new game mode and content all in one game instead of separate downloads/launchers (hence why so many companies try so hard to have a single launcher for all games i.e COD HQ and others) and by having infantry directly installed on War Thunder they could attract directly all the War Thunder players into playing infantry without them having to install another game
Maybe I’m a bit naive, but wouldn’t that a be a “good thing” ? I mean, having a unified launcher would be cool, World of Tanks and the other games have been running on the same launcher for quite some time now, and if WT and Enlisted are merged together one day, maybe gaijin would pour enough resources in the new game mode for WT, (which was previously Enlisted), and we could finally have a lot of bugs resolved, and way better animations/sound and content. But maybe I’m just too optimistic. Anyway, I really don’t want this game to die, because I don’t have any other FPS that insterests me at the moment.
Yeah the devs better come out to refute these points if they want to continue to develop this game.
It feels like at this point community morale is even lower then the winter post-merge. They missed an update, they fucked up the events, they killed the GL system. Now they have to recognize they fucked up and give us a clear vision of what their planning. If not, than that is probably a sign this game wont survive for very long.
I hope they don’t, WT clearly doesn’t care about realism and history.
Anime stickers on IS2 .
They’ve been head in the sand mode since before this event started lol, they aren’t going to change a single thing
Oh it’s not only stickers or decals LOL
And then they give the soldiers dolls to hang from their weapons, probably then add Snoop Dogg in Normandy and then anime girls in Manchuria.
To be fair I think there is an option in War Thunder to disable custom content and non historical skins IIRC
Its a shame. Kinda like the event though … I f it was just a smal event it would be nice, but now its going to be a long slog because those who paid for the BP have to finish their things. So, no others events sadly enough.
Which question by the way. If you want to do the free BP, do you only have to grind 5 things and then get the Winchester, or do you have to grind the paid ones to?
because 5 is fine but 13 jezoes …
