Seeing that made me forget how good the game can look, since I always play with most of my settings on low to remove grass and tree/bush density.

This is always going to be an issue with war thunder GF. :(
I never really cared about that, I'll sacrifice visibility to play a game that doesn't look like it belongs on an N64
Actually having a good time in this game by seal-clubbing the grind in Arcade for US planes
Dunno but it's really relaxing
[QUOTE=Doom14;50073557]Oh man, are we in the squeeze now?
Is this where we ride this thing right into the fucking ground and try to enjoy it before it becomes Star Conflict? :v:[/QUOTE]
Is this why there's no Star Conflict thread? I picked it up last year and have had fun ever since, but wasn't sure if this was the only thread to talk about it (Gaijin product).

It's people like you that make Realistic and Simulator battles shit to play.
Am I the only one who thinks about ULQ players when positioning? Can always go around the problem.. this is something that needs work though.

I think about them all the time while playing.
[sp]Because I am one :^)[/sp]
[QUOTE=arthuro12;50092828]Am I the only one who thinks about ULQ players when positioning? Can always go around the problem.. this is something that needs work though.[/QUOTE]
I try to think about that but then again, I keep forgetting that what ought to be really good concealment ends up disappearing for the ULQ player.
BTW, there was an RB battle on the Pacific map where I started in the Western part of the map (South West spawn), and I went in a Dicker Max with a friendly Pz IV G around the long south road to cover the flank. There was a Sherman that got deleted by my gun at the far side from the lake, but both me and the Pz IV got flanked from the [I]south[/I] in the hills by a Cromwell and a T-34: [I]in the fucking cliffs.[/I]
These guys were out of map bounds and yet they managed to get behind our spawn and wrecked us even when we realized what was going on.
Wtf Gaijin I've been to that spot and it consistently says 'YOU ARE LEAVING THE BATTLEFIELD', you [I]shouldn't[/I] be able to [I]be[/I] on those fucking hills.

A visual represantation to help explain what happened:
Blue X is where the friendly Pz IV G died
Green Xs show where I died
Red O is where the enemy Sherman was killed
Red Xs show the approximate positions of the Cromwell and T-34 from which they killed us.
Blue O is our spawn.
Open up a custom battle and double check it's actually out of bounds - if it only shows warning, it just means you're close to going out of bounds; you're not technically out of bounds til the timer appears and starts counting down.

Oh yeah that area. It's annoying when you're fighting in the middle cap and get sniped by some joker in a Hellcat that rushed up there first thing D:

I have, and taking the path that the Cromwell and T-34 took the timer [I]did[/I] appear. So yes, those guys abused the map boundaries and used the cliffs/hills to attack us in what was frankly an unfair angle.
[editline]8th April 2016[/editline]
I mean ffs, it makes it so that you can go behind the dragon's teeth and tank traps that purposefully block off that area.
Tbh that map is way too cramped and needs more space anyway, and people are [I]always[/I] on that cliff
[QUOTE=Shibbey;50093427]Tbh that map is way too cramped and needs more space anyway, and people are [I]always[/I] on that cliff[/QUOTE]
Then they should open it up, okay. But make it accessible to the players spawning West, because currently the only way (that I know of) of getting there is by having one tank push another up, then hoisting the other with the tow cable. At least remove the dragon's teeth that's blocking the way.
Fuck all those arena maps, remove and replace with realistic looking maps.. FUCK WHITE CASTLE ESPECIALLY
Also, leaving the battlezone should dissable your gun if you try to use it there.
White Rock Castle or whatever is fucking awful, but it used to be so much better. Like 80% of the drivable map isn't used at all

I'm sorry that I don't purposefully gimp myself by playing with tons of foliage, but you do realize that it's a vicious circle perpetuated not just solely "by people like me".
I used to play on high settings too until I learned of ultra low quality players, and suddenly all those bullshit deaths I had made perfect sense. If you can't beat them, join them.

As someone who can't play on anything higher than medium-low because of my shitty laptop, I feel disgusted.
Wow, I didn't realize there was such hate for low grass quality users.
Sorry guys but held strong for a couple months before I simply just couldn't take it anymore, it's not worth the headache and frustration just for a bit of dignity. Maybe we should blame Gaijin instead of the individual players?? Forced Grass would be lovely.

It's not so much hating on the ULQ players who are forced due to hardware limitations (although I still think that a lot of them can upgrade their rigs to decent levels: War Thunder GF isn't that unoptimized anymore) so much as hating on the ones purposefully using it to gain a bigger advantage by removing what would normally conceal enemies. It's considerably better than it was a year ago, but it's still there.
To be entirely honest, I haven't found a whole lot of RB/SB rounds where I was clearly killed by a ULQ player. It feels as if their numbers have dropped. It [I]might[/I] have to do with server locations, but at least in the EU servers I've been having a decent experience in RB at least.
Excluding bullshit shots/ricochets and the likes.
I keep getting this awful fucking glitch where I can't do jack shit because the game decides to sit in this weird spectator camera. I can't even access the menu, I have to alt+f4 because nothing else works.
And because of that, I lose out on any RP I could be getting, plus I have to wait for my crews to come back.
[editline]edit[/editline]
Yeah I just got skimped out of probably 750+ more RP since I was kicking serious ass but the game decided to be a cunt.
Fuck this, I'm done with this game. It ends up becoming more of a hassle and a slugfest rather than something to have fun. The grind has gotten to be so...bad, I just can't find a better way to describe it. It makes the game really dull
I disable grass because I really need that fps boost :v:
I like a nice smooth 60, not a sluggerich 30

I just don't see the point in purposefully giving myself a disadvantage when playing against people using ULQ. If you want to have a fun fair shot at a simulator or realistic battle match then you have to play with low grass and trees, otherwise you are just easy prey for ULQ players.
If I knew 100% for sure that every single player in the match was playing with grass and dense trees on, then yeah I'd play with the same settings cause then I know I won't be sniped through invisible bushes that aren't there on the ULQ player's screen.
[editline]8th April 2016[/editline]
I don't even use ultra low quality myself, I just have grass and trees turned down. At least when I get killed playing with low settings I know immediately where I was shot from instead of wondering how they saw me.
i hate the times that one of your decides to off himself for no reason
There's no excuse to run War Thunder on ultra low anymore when graphics cards that can give you over 100 FPS with the game maxed out are reasonably affordable.

not everybody that is bill free mate
Well, I personally wouldn't even play games if I'd have to stick with lowest graphic settings in games. There would be little to no enjoyment in that.
And honestly Taepodong isn't far off with his remark as decent GPUs etc. are quite affordable nowadays. With a little saving and subtle money spending you should be able to get them if you wish so.
