Devs seriously need to revamp campaigns

It takes with premium 2,5 days of play time to finish a campaign (at least for me).

With War Thunder i got 90days.

I haven’t unlock one jet yet.

I just want to say that to make you understand that Gaijin is used to more grind in other games, and if there is no easy solution there will be no solution.

I’m personally ok with the current campaign grind system

I think what they could do is add another game mode that allows you to play all Campaigns in a single playlist just like the previous Even Fight event, that allows you to at least grind each campaign

Yup, them adding new campaigns is the worst thing they can do. It’s hard enough as it is to get a few players on each team. Seems like the devs are going for a cash grab rather than the longevity of the game based on their decisions.

i would sort weapons by year they were issued. and you could only play early campaigns with early weapons. if you select higher year weapon, you cant play early campaign anymore, just mid late campaigns. and with early weapons you could play all 3 campaingns.

I mean that could work, but you also then have to have to put a retirement date on vehicles, so that you don’t end up with BT-7s in Berlin.

could be too complicated for (below)average player… imagine having 2 dates to work with. do you even know math skills of average zoomer?

Just rework campaigns into Fronts + a division between Early War Tech Battles / Late War Tech Battles.

Also implement uniform customization in a way that you can have say a Rifleman II squad with multiple uniform sets, so when you get a Normandy match your squad will have uniform set A but if you get a Bulge map you will have uniform set B. This way you won’t have to worry about for example US troops storming the beaches of Normandy wearing winter trench coats.

Multiple, theatre-specific presets per faction?

When choosing and equipping your squads in the menu, you’d be required to set up a dedicated lineup for each available theatre. While doing so, among the weapons and vehicles (and squads?) you own, only the ones allowed for the currently selected theatre would be available.

Once that’s done, it would also be easier to add a “play any theatre” option.

It’s easy to fix, you would be unlocking 2-3 weapons at same time when you finish that progress bar on current weapon.

If I take back my exemple and use your solution, it means that after 2 or 3 unlock, you will have a FG42 II?

I can’t imagine what Mister W. would have said.

Some solution are cool when you think about it, but doesn’t work as soon as you try to draw some prototype.

At the end the only real problem is Stalingrad, Berlin and Moscow. That why people propose “eastern front”.

We can at least reduce the perimeter to this 3 campaign.

A better solution is add a nation grind for all campaigns, and lock determinate equipment for be used from some campaigns

Like
Fg42 usable in normandy and berlin but not in moscow, Tunisia, stalingrad

And because we need unlock squad i suggest to leave the campaigns grind for only squad

So we split the grind in equipment and squad and grind both at the same time

It rise another problem:
Right now, except for flammerII radioII and engineerII, there is no purpose to use anything else than the level I squads.

But seperating the weapon grind may be the best clue toward a solution.

We can imagine not unlocking weapons, but unlocking tiers.

For exemple, weapon already got tier right now.
It goes from 3 :star: to 6 :star: .
Let’s say you want tier 1 smg.
You grind the tech tree and unlock it.

In each campaign it could be something different.
Berlin T1 smg: mp38
Moscow T1 smg: mp34
Tunisia T1 smg: bereta

Then you want better smg, you have to unlock the tier2.

It’s a solution but it will be messy to understand as a new player because it’s already messy to explain.
“I habe unlock the mp38 in Berlin but it’s not available in this other campaign. BUG REPORT!!! GIVE BACK MY MONEY”

And another problem is that some campaign don’t have t3.

Right now the system is very simple:
In tunisa, lvl8 you got engineer squad with THIS weapon.
Simple. Don’t have to think.

problem is the year of the weapon. some 3 star weapons range from start of the century, towards 1943-1944 (e.g. m3). so cause of the year of the weapon (m3 in this example) you could only use it normandy, but it is 3 star weapon. and thompson that is 6 stars was available through entire war.

that is why it is better to have unlocks by year. you want to play tunis? well you must not select anything made from second half of 1943 onward. and allow obsolete equipment to enter later campaigns for memes :rofl:

hmmm maybe we should have a something like a 15%-20% bonus exp if we had that weapon in a difference exp in an ideal situation

Bump. Devs need to see this

Introduce new maps/cosmetics/ and premium squads for theaters. If you buy them they are introduced into rotation. If not, players will not see them.
