Well since you force my hand I must say that this “test” is a thinly veiled attempt at boiling the frog.
The real solution is to add more battlefields(maps) that cater for each faction at every stage of the war.
Ie.
Khalkhin-Gol For Japan vs USSR BRI
Iwo Jima for Japan vs Allies BRV
Collogne for Allies vs Axis BRIV-V
Liberation of Italy for Allies vs Axis BRIII-V
But NOOO this requires actual work and resources to be put into things that matter.
Instead I feel like the devs just want us to be a bunch of Yes Men. Fuck that. Fix your game
Nah better make 10 more premium packs for the game - Dark Gaijin
Soon we will be 7 months without a single new map, then 8 months, 9 months, 10 months, and it may turn into a year without anything new. I hope i am wrong this time.
They told us they will be removing it. But i’m more surprised about removal of Chi-ha and Firefly. They better add them to the TT or at least as event vehicles (along with Churchill 7 and Soviet Matilda)
It’s just usual Gaijin stupidity to generate revenue from the “last time before removal sale” and hype them again when they come back (at full price with FOMO timer). It’s really scummy tactic, they should be put at -75% discount instead as they are treated as a trash by Gaijin anyway.
Just add the promised custom match limitation options, so those who get a heart attack by this update making the game unplayable for them, can just have their own match making
If i remember correctly, on reddit or youtube, people talk rather positive about it. Also the enlisted forum has only a minority of the player base. 67 players of thousands is not really a trustworthy source to decide that by forum likes only…
Preference or not, to be honest, people who quit like this concequently ruin the fairness for about 5 other players in each match by giving them a disadvantage.
So id rather ignore those kind of egoistic players.
(i am running towards the nearest bunker already )
They should ask those players
Plus ones on the PC launcher, Xbox and Playstation too. Right now now not even 1% of players are getting angry on the forum. It doesn’t show us a full picture.
Those maps still need some reworks as they are too open especially Tunisia, some Moscow maps and Berlin feel way too slow even for BR1-2 standards.
The only problem I have is Tunisia. And it’s because of quality of those maps, not because of some pseudo HA BS reasonings.
In my opinion, majority of Tunisia maps would need total rework to be on par with other maps.
And since they’re testing this without telling us in advance how the preferred map system will work. Thus I’m reacting to this change from the perspective that something like this may not even come up.
And I really don’t think Tunisia maps deserve to be on all BRs. So much so that people can’t even avoid them.
Something to do with desert battles. Or that it’s very bright. And the buildings are the most detailed of all war theaters (multiple stories, variations, furniture, details…)
(Also because it’s a Commonwealth campaign eheheh)
I concede some pathways and cap zones could be refined though. But hopefully devs are working on it with the suggestion here:
