I deserted. Got -20%. Used a +50% . Got 20% plus total. 
cried out laughing
The map liking/disliking system will probably do the same difference! However I have to say, that from the maps I have liked tonight, I did play mostly those if not all. Not sure.
Currently I have disliked manually everything I have chose earlier. Of course why would there be any button to default everything in one go, or even worse a set of different presets for favorite maps depending on the mood. That would probably have to be premium.
Anyways, I have “unliked” my dislikes, and likes to the state of zero, and only added Wald in its 3 modes: “confrontation, destruction and invasion”… Right, even they themselves bamboozle confrontation and conquest…
So, yeah I have set the Wald map as liked in all 3 modes and nothing else. No other dislikes or likes.
Now I will proceed to play Germs BR 5 and see if I can actually play the new map.

Then in the new map liking system, there is a major mistake. The map is not available on Confrontation, but on Conquest.
Oh, it’s even more bamboozling!
Actually the map is not showing on Destruction.
So, just as smart people before me said. Now, proceed with your duty!

Ive personally played about 10+ games today at high tier
Much less leaving I think than im normally used to, even I stayed a match or 2 I would usually consider leaving and then proceeded to win anyhow.
I think penalty like this, that feels bad but isint actually a serious penalty is a perfect solution at this time. Less leavers, but mostly its a psychological effect of feeling bad about a minor penalty, not a huge pain.
aka Less is more.

Oh, shit! I have deserted second time and got -20% for a week
Now we talking! Let’s see how long that’s gonna stay in the game…
And the only reason I deserted is because others did 75% of the conquest match vs japan.
No Wald so far 0/2.

3 games no Wald. With filter only for Wald. However I got -20% exp for a week. Wow! Great changes!
Additional: Explosions and sounds are nice af!
On the other hand. Game seems to be clunky af again. Windows don’t break as before and I got stuck while jumping through so many times. Tank repairs clunkier than ever. I have not tried the ladders though!
I’m sure they work just fine and are more beautiful.

The UI looks really cluttered and overloaded by this point.
Look how many numbers, signs, emblems, stars, medals there are at the same time on the screen:
BR this, arrow up that, medal this, perks that, +20%XP this, 6 soldiers that, three stars this, 30/90 x21 that, Tier 5 this, bucket icon that, soldiers icon this, *** that, Engineer I, Assault Pilot Squad (7), but the soldier inside is called Attacker pilot…
I understand that for us old timers this feels intuitive because we’ve been here though all these changes, but for a new players this will definitely feel overwhelming and cheap, almost mobile game like
At least that’s one of the things stopping me from playing WT (alongside Israeli tanks defending Japan from Italian invasion):
I have no idea what 90% of this stuff means on the screen and I CBA to get a War Thunder UI PhD
I know we are not talking AAA here, and Gaijin, but a cleaner looking UI would make the game look so much more serious and polished, less like an indie mobile grinder.
Funny thing is – we used to have it kind of minimalistic and calm at the beginning:
@ UI Designer, please let’s rework this mess

Not very culturally appreciative of you🤣
yeah. unfortunately a bug which was forwared to the DEVs. hope they will fix it soon.
I was thinking about changing the appearance yesterday before the update - glad I decided to wait. xD
“M2 carbine sawoff” doesn’t belong on the BR V - more on the BR III / BR IV.
The sights, the damage, the recoil
→ worse than the Thompson M1928A1 on the BR III
→ yes muzzle velocity is far better and 50 ROF more but doesn’t change the fact that this weapon is not good

I like how the AVS-36 rate of fire was changed for accuracy, but the casing bug still hasn’t been fixed.

Honestly ignoring the countless flaws of both systems, the main issue with both is that both somehow fail to achieve even a single point they set out to fix.
But on the map system in particular, its such a clunky and dumb system, I just spent all my dislikes on conquest maps (something you cant do fully because of course you cant) while spent a couple likes on my favourite destruction maps and thats it.
Why they didnt instead make it so you pick preferred game modes and then have a separate map selection field if they wanted to do the shitty half ass WT way of doing is fucking beyond me. Let alone the fact they went with said shitty WT style of map selection that has 0 fucking impact on map selection.
I mean the fact there is even a limited number of dislikes and likes is dumb in of itself as there is no map bans anyway atm, fuck the more I talk about it the worse it gets, genuinely who if anyone thought this was a good idea, you cant blame out of touch execs with braincells replaced by peas, this is purely on the devs at this point.
Quick rant over, shits dumb, we need more dev Q&A sessions and more importantly, answers that arent just politician non-answers at that.

I do really like the update, overall regardless of the bugs and performance issues, there is a single thing that I am unhappy about, it is the desertion penalty system, fuck the desertion penalty system, remove it ffs.
Bye bye Gavutu! Hello Burma!

Been really enjoying the update so far. The visuals are lovely with where they’ve been improved. And I think the game is running a lot smoother for me right now too, so very pleased. The new planes for Japan are cool! I’m still trying to get the hang of the rockets but I’ll get there I’m sure!

I just have a request, since you guys went ahead with the stupid desertion penalty system, and given that the stupid partial map choosing system literally does nothing, I played around 8 matches today and I did not get to play a single map that I did like on the dumbass system, just bring something similar to campaigns back or give me a way to not face the dumbass soviets, I hate playing against br 5 soviets, I am not asking for nerfs or buffs on any nation I am just asking for a way to not face the soviets, thank you.
Same…
…except lame TT additions.
Not excited about single one of them, disappointed by nearly half of them.
