Remove Ultra Low Quality
I know, this post will upset players that actually have to play on ULC. BUT there are too many players that definetly have the power to play on Max settings and just want to exploit those settings for their own goods. It just can't be nowadays that graphic settings actually effect gameplay. There are plenty of videos on Youtube how drastic those changes are.

I personally think ULQ should still have bushes but the bushes should render before the tank. The problem is at long range the tank is rendered long before any terrain. Make all the bushes 2d with very low poly and or just reduce the over all vision range to the max your bushes render.

Most of the player base have systems from 2010-2013.

Well you can always make it so the game detects what your system is and won’t let you go below x if you have y? If a game can detect optimal settings surely it can limit you from exploiting features meant for potatoes.

Honestly if you CAN'T afford a proper pc you should stop playing and change your lifestyle...
Why should the Ppl that have pc's that can run the game on decent settings take a disadvantage because someone doesn't see a point in upgrading his rig if he can abuse the "ulq advantages" ?

What people can and can't afford is none of your business.

Just cause my pc isn't amazing it doesn't mean that I will change "lifestyle" just cause you said so

For an opinion that I consider a hot take, how would this affect the que times? Does this deter the kids who only have a school laptop or dad's old laptop? That is how I started this game and ULQ was my saving grace.

Agreed. For someone to want to keep people out a game due to their hardware differences is gatekeeping in my eyes. Let people play with whatever they have and adjust the game or software to balance the playing fields.

People with such potato machines won't spend money on the game anyways. No idea how this ULQ hasn't been removed years ago.

Also ulq is a double edged sword.

Render distance is surely reduced but try to snipe behind a bush. You can't because the texture is so much low quality that you can't see through it and trust me it heavily impacts the game.

ULQ also prevents certain "destroyed" buildings from appearing destroyed. I remember getting memed once through a solid building only to find it wasn't destroyed when I looked through the binocular.

It also creates some sort of "texture wall" in some maps.
Basically if not scoped in, the texture of a building will stretch out and block the view.

It doesn't happen often for me, can't provide a screen but maybe you experienced it too idk
