Premium Not Worth
Games ending in 5 minutes, planes too easy to obtain and ruin tank matches, literally make no currency as repairs and ammo just eats it all up. Feels like there's an unusual number of people cheating lately using obvious esp/wall hack and aim bots, it's getting annoying. Not dropping another $1 on the game, save your money.

Don't rush.

Not bad advice.
Most SPAA past tier 2 are better as TDs than actual AAs.
Gajin using SL to balance vehicles isn't actually balancing. It's SL gating vehicles to those who can afford multiple rounds of seal clubbing and dying. And also making stock grind more painful for said seal clubber.
Probably.
Yes

Neither of these are affected by premium.

(1) When I'm short on SLs I play my expensive vehicles much more conservatively. If it's a full uptier, I will not play them in that match at all.
(2) Ammo should almost never be what eats a significant portion of your profits. If this is the case, practicing rangefinding and shot placement should be something you prioritize. Even if it's just going for a test drive, pulling up to a random location on the map, and trying to hit the Ai targets in specific areas.

Not affected by premium. Not only that, but there could be a lot of different things afoot here.

Did they hear you? Did they third-person you? Were you spotted by an enemy light tank? Heck, were you just parked up somewhere that was predictable, and someone decided to sling a shell in said obvious/popular hiding spot?

Doesn't matter whats not affect by premium, its not worth it to waste money on the game

Actually no, it was the moment I saw you call everyone a cheater that I realised you're just bad and full of ♥♥♥♥. Fact of the matter is most things you probably attribute to cheating are either down to poor server connection or your lack of awareness/skill/experience.

Most games finish early because people rush...

Also SPAA's are fine they just require different methods of play style until you get to the SAMs and then it's just point and click.

I actually agree with you about the repair costs on some vehicles, as Sinner said above they're gating some vehicles with SL making them only available to highly skilled players. My preferred choice of rank and nation is Rank V Britain aka the Gucci lineup as it's so expensive.

Well... you make a post about premium not being worthwhile, then bring up things that premium has no effect over. Doesn't make much sense.

All of the things that you brought up can be remedied with practice and situational awareness. There are lots of people who have premium and do not run into any of the issues you talked about, except perhaps revenge bombing in RB.

Got to love when you hit that nerve and they start making ♥♥♥♥ up in long drawn out paragraphs.

I'm saying why get premium with all the crap this game has going on. But w/e your like the team captain of the warthunder fanboy club that send out the monthly news letters, anything said in any little negative fashion is wrong or just the worst thing ever cuz your biased.

For me planes in ground RB was the earner and very fun.

That is until I discovered that I can make no less than 30k but around 60k lions per match playing 5.0+ naval with a premium destroyer and battleships, unfortunately though my favorite battleship has a 62k repair cost.
