One respawn now even in tech tree vehicles ?
I've noticed the battles are very fast now, and saw that most people now respawn only one and go to garage right away even in non-premium vehicles.. the matchmaking is very fast now but this way it's more of a loading and start of a battle than prolonged fighting... this comes from higher tier experience (8.3+)

Could it be the repair cost problem now becoming even worse ?

I'm interested in community say, because my most problem after one death is just that most people jump into Planes/heli and won't let me even get into fight...

So: why aren't you spawning again ?

This is what War Thunder's economy encourages players to do. The benefit of playing multiple vehicles to get a few more kills or even win the match does not overcome the costs of repairing those vehicles.

for me, it depends on.

- dead team
- ♥♥♥♥ team
- ♥♥♥♥ map/mode (i hate KOTH and Confrontation)
- ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ death/ gaijined
- grinding a specific vehicle
- ofcorse repair costs
- nightmaps without NV or thermals
- map unbalance (no need to respawn if u get sniped out of the spawn and cant shoot back)
- mood
- im not a SL/RP piniata

now the reasons i spawn again.

- good map/ mode
- workable team even if we loose
- getting destroid because of my mistake
- balanced map
- the right era for the right maps (example: WW2 in city/small maps)
- seeing a real chance to fight back
- low tier repair costs are not so high
- NO DRONES
- there are still enemys
- i dont mind loosing
This is pretty much it. No point respawning if one doesn't see the possibility of winning nor even scoring a few kills/assists.

Well you can only ban one map and some have variants you can´t directly block like the spawn to spawn version of Motzdok

Why not :-D

If I dont see a chance to turn it around, i just leave and go try it with a different lineup while the crew lock expires.

If Gaijin doesnt value my time spent on the game and community apparently support them in it...its me who has to value my own time by leaving lost matches :-)

Imagine if they had a mode with no repair cost, and a ticket pool system like what Battlefield uses - if you like one particular vech no worries, just keep spawning it in and have some actual fun for a change.

A man can dream I guess.

they could easily implement the same system enlisted uses.

ULQ and 1 lifer here, respawning again is unfair most of the time, enemies near you spawn or camping it or beyond the mid section of the map meanwhile you at the beginning again. When I die is to aircraft and helicopters, grind is taking ages to get spaa, i dont have one and i will not spawn again in a tank to be bombed from 14km away or missiled by a helicopter. In low tier i rarely die so no problem there. KD around 20 below 5.3.
basically if I die its your fault for being killed and allowing the other player to spawn unbalanced vehicles. This is a PVP game not real life, how a sonic jet with 5000 kg of bombs that can be fired from 2km its balanced against a hot box with a dhska on the roof to protect itself? if you want real warfare go to east europe and see if you like getting blow up by something you cant fight against.
when this game adds a gamemode for ground only, then i will re think my approach, for now, dont expect me to respawn.
also adressing ULQ for soyboys, PVP game, not a single player experience, you see pubg players play with high grass or cs players with high graphics and 30 fps? course not, you need high fps, high visibility and the least amount of dust or smoke possible, try it, you may rise that grounded KD you have.

also, you know what game has a good pvp balance? rising storm 2. You have an objetive and a zone. If you go past that zone thats aligned with the objetive you have a warning on screen and cant fire your gun and you are spotted, if you capture the objetive you are allowed to advance past that point and so on. You cant go to the enemy spawn right away, its a different gamemode (defend -attack) but it works better than here.

5 minutes into a battle it's already a spawncamp fest there's no reason to respawn if I'm just going to lose 9,000 silver and MAYBE get one kill. It's not gonna win the round for my team, and I'm not going to make back what I lose for dying 20s after spawning.

Also at high tier most people just buy premiums, when the premium is dead they leave because their highest BR vehicle that isn't a premium is a 2.3 or something.

This happens more frequently at higher BRs because either:
- People bought some premium vehicles, and that's all the have (vehicle packs are quite expensive, and cost as much as a fully fledged game in most cases.
- People actually ground the entire tech tree up until that point, thus meaning that they are experienced enough to understand that, in most cases, it is not worth spawning in again.

As it has been said multiple times, in most cases, this is due to how expensive things are compared to how much money people can actually make during the game. One death leavers usually fuel the match maker, which allows people to find a match in a relatively short amount of time.

I'm trying to get 30 Adament awards right now. Best tank I have for it is a Churchill. I can only earn it once per match and, if I get killed, I'm not going to delay my next attempt just to stick around and play. And if I get killed before getting it, there's way too many tanks that can pen me to warrant staying. So off I go for a better match for my needs.

Generally, I'll do at least 3 attempts though.

WoT? Mate please, I have standards :P

Respawn tickets for vehicles need to be bought with SL, not GE. If I only want to play 1 tank (either to practise or because Im feeling a particular play style) Im limited to 1 spawn.

Maybe allow the 1 tank to be used across multiple crews?

It depends :

- sometimes, people have not built a coherent lineup.

- sometimes they are into a battle & are seeing the others doing nothing or sh**, so they will not waste their own time for people who don't deserve it.

- other times, it's just because of stupidity, the new norm into our societies.

The stupidity can be on the side of players, as they just give up without doing anything else.
The stupidity is also on the side of Gaijin, because they do not listen to people about the Repair Costs, too high.

No it's mostly that people don't typically buy full premium lineups in the same BR. And the Repair to SL earned ratio sucks on non premiums, it's not worth the time.

The economy changes over the years caused this.
