RB players, do you look down on AB players?

AB player here, why would I go to WoT?? It’s mechanics are way worse, dumb healthbar, and WT looks way better anyway
I just like having a more casual experience, that’s all

I guess i can see this. I dont find WoT to be all that visually worst with max settings and the arcade feel and additional mechanics make me prefer it when i am in an arcade mood. Things like artillery, weakpoints, and availability of tanks i don't have already in War Thunder is a fun change of pace. But then again, I do not play it often and do not play AB at all so my perspective is different.

I find it aggravating how many RB ♥♥♥♥♥ think they're better than AB players, honestly get a life.

People are always gonna be elitist if their mode/game/anything is perceived as requiring more skill/prestige than yours: that's how class system works. *insert communism joke*

A little bit off-topic here, but something I'm curious since I myself am looking into the academy...do you know the specific numbers of this young man's vision? The vision requirement (at least according to their website) is correctable within 20/40 and 20/70, 20/30 and 20/100, or 20/20 and 20/400, and while I don't know my exact prescription I know that my glasses correct my worse eye, which normally can't read this text on this monitor, to at least 20/20. Additionally, there appears to be no restrictions on corrective surgery. If this young man is still at least a few/several months shy of turning 29, there's still a chance to join up in real-life WT. *insert motivational Shia LaBeouf*

i dont now man the point was that he couldnt just join the air force and he had an *inserts some eye disease*. And even if he hadnt he could still be disqualified by other paremeters, its not most of the people who enlists that can be pilots.

Nope i play arcade when I'm salty about rb BS

As an RB player, I fully support this........ Although without the profanity :)

[Blamite Delight]

I play AB because theres more on demand information so I can make decisions and place shots quicker. I view RB as "hardcore team deathmatch" which is a game mode I never had any fun playing.

[Ouroboros]

Nope. People who do want to feel better about themselves and making snarky comments about AB is their way of doing it. Elitism really. In my opinion they need to get a life but whatever.

I actually kinda like AB. It's good for a quick game when I don't want to sideclimb for 20 minutes. There's none of that in AB and in GFAB low tiers are kinda fun now the Jumbo isn't terrorising 4.7 and 3.7 matches. Plus it's much better than WoT because it doesn't have that borked spotting system, paper tanks, health bars, vehicles feeling like RC cars instead of actual tanks and most importantly this game doesn't have an arty class, the latter is probably the worst mechanic I've ever seen in a PvP game other than CVs in WoWs.

OP to finish my participation here i want to tell a small tale. Its a about a young man, just like you, who decided to play warthunder. As he was just beginning he decided to play Arcade Battles. He stayed for a while until one day, at custom battles, some friend asked him which mode he played more, this young man answered arcade.
He was heavyly criticized to even being called a kid or filthy casual and that he should grow up and play rb. Listening to his buddies he went to rb, but as soon as he got there he became pretty much frustrated , still he kept on. Eventually he became somehow decent at rb but not to the level he was on ab.
Again there was another dude in custom battles and after the same question he answered rb but the other guy, a simulator battles veteran, mocked him by saying this is not the real experience in warthunder and that real men only play simulator, so once again he went to another gamemode. And again he became pretty frustrated, even more when he found out that to play this gamemode he needed a flight stick to get his warthunder experience.
After he bought a expensive flight kit and after getting used to sb, he found in a forum a specific topic, it said "why i left warthunder to join IL-2 stalingrad". He got into this forum and he saw people mocking warthunder entirely, his favorite game and instead they were prasing this il-2 which they thought it was way more realistic and it contained all the experiences of the world a fighter pilot had.Then he quit warthunder and joined Il-2 but to his demise he didnt found any servers in his country but still he tried to play with a 200-350 lag but he never became good at it.
And finally one day he was walking in the street to buy some bread and he meet a real fighter pilot from the United States Air Force, they talked a little and the gamer said that he plays il-2 and that it was kinda like a simulator, but this fighter pilot said that the only way to get the real experience of being a fighter is to...well enlist in the us air force academy and be a pilot, in the same line he also said that the boy couldnt be a pilot because he was short sighed(plot twist) and he would never be more than a sim-peasant instead of a fighterman .After many years of frustration and people telling what he should do, he decided to just turn his back on flight games altogether and started to play fortnite and roblox.


Extremely long to read/moral of the story: Dont listen to other people, play whatever you want, and dont be a idiot thinking your game or mode is the best because there will always be someone who is superior to you.

just the nature of the species.........sadly..........

I do. I presume I'm better than AB players... but I am also terrible at the game... so please leave me to think I'm a little bit better than somebody...

No you are not, arcade is much harder than RB specially at 10.0 wich is the br i play.
I have played a few rb games and im open to play rb just because of my squadron, when they want me to complete the squad.
In my squadron there are lots of players that play 50% AB and 50% RB, they are my friends and really more experienced players than iam, they are both good players at those 2 modes and they say to me RB is to relax AB is to feel the rush.
There is no element of surprise in AB, flanking can be really fustrating, there are no nations vs nations in AB, you will face everything that there is, reaction time to fire is much shorter in arcade, also longrange shots you need to calculate in AB, because aim indicator is off at those ranges, tanks move faster in AB, airsupport can rain for everybody in short amount of time and the maps in AB are shorter.
In ab i can use mbt like leopard1 and stomp the enemy team easly, because im used to, just wanted to see a full time rb player do the same as i do with a mbt like leo1.
People underestimate AB players and the mode itself too much sometimes...

What you mention about the aim indicator has alot to do with why im so bad at AB.
Playing mainly RB i already know how and where i should shoot but if an aim indicator is there i find myself trying to rely on it even at short ranges and taking far to long to fire.

Depending what you play one mod is better than the other

Like taking AA out? AB has plenty of it and no one really care if they loose the plane so they don't really try to dodge your shots

Like to play sneaky and/or flanck fast? RB got you covered with no marker

Like not caring about needing SP to go back in? AB & SB got you covered

Want tactical & long range combat with incentive to comunicate with your team? SB got you covered

Don't want the lack of rangefinder or parts to handicape you to much? AB got you covered

Want a middle ground to have fun in both tank & plane (not talking about CAS spam)? RB got you covered

[kamikazi21358]

No.


I play mostly Realistic and Simulator Battles, but I don’t care if people play Arcade Battles. In fact I would encourage it, if a player enjoys the gamemode.


There should be 3 gamemodes to appeal to the playerbase —

Arcade: fast action, pure gameplay mode. For players who appeal to this.

Realistic: slower, more realistic and tatical gameplay but still fun and decently paced. For players who want more realism, but to the point of still fun and balanced gameplay, and simplified controls.

Simulator: slower paced combat, much more realistic, while still maintaining a degree of balance. Realistic controls, limited view, larger maps, and more. For players who want a more Simulator like experience.


Players should play what they think is more fun.



What I do have a problem with, is players playing the gamemode that obviously isn’t for them, then complaining about aspects of said gamemode.

Common examples (RB):
“It takes 20 minutes to climb, it’s too long!”
“Why are there planes in ground battles!”
“This map is too big!”
“I hate everything that isn’t urban CQC!”
No it doesn’t take 20 minutes, it’s on average 3-4 minutes (take a stopwatch and see yourself), just go play arcade! There are problems with every gamemode in the game, but these are not the problem. It’s called Realistic Battles you illiterate #%*#s!

Not as often with SB, but I very occasionally hear this with SB, but a fractional amount with Realistic Battles. I am sure there are some AB stuff that RB players complain about too when they go play AB — I play AB occasionally, and I do have some complaints... but it isn’t my gamemode, so I’m not going to walk into your house uninvited and critique your interior decorating.




But anyways, 3 gamemodes for 3 styles of gameplay. Neither one is truly superior over the other. Neither is even that much harder than the other: every gamemode is easier and harder in some aspects, AB is the hardest gamemode in the game in some aspects, some in RB, and SB is generally harder overall due to restrictive controls and views, but even it is easier in some aspects.

Players should be encouraged to play what they want.

Yes, I've been a player from the PS4 Vs. PS4 days, and when it went cross platform, i played 2 maybe 3 games of AB and thought nah ♥♥♥♥ this and went and played RB, been playing RB since it went cross platform and will NEVER revert back to that garbage.
