Just putting the vibe out there, but I feel like 1.0 has kinda killed a lot of the fun for me in all three stages of early, mid, and late game for me.

To be fair I play Able, in a decently committed logi/armor regiment.

Early war I usually end up building in hard to defend or abandoned front line towns, and start building my logi stockpile. Usual frustrations there got really highlighted with facilities stealing a lot of supply and manpower the first week.

But you know, you persevere, scrap what you can together and make it work. But let me tell you solo building during night shift for hours at multiple towns, only to log in 12 hours later(literal) and see those positions hard flipped because of fire rockets, Is pretty unrewarding.

Mid Game, I usually go full speed into logi production, get a armor stockpile going and hard QRF. Really only stay on a front for a full shift if it’s a place that’s losing too many shirts for hours on end.

Felt like me, the team, and the faction was doing everything right, but never really saw any meaningful progress for 4-7 days. Which is fine, I’ve been around Since war 42. I know it’s stagnant sometimes when both teams are actually fighting well outside of skill issues. But felt like the entire first 6 tiers of tech didn’t matter outside of arty and rockets.

Cutlers, wheelchairs, gas, LT’s, HT’s, scout tanks; none of that really felt impactful in anyway. (Insert cutler & hv40 memes here) felt like if I wasn’t scrooping or in a facility producing shells or driving a flatbed down I wasn’t actuallly making a difference. Outside QRF and defending Cgate.

Late war: we have everything, BTs are being fielded, cities are falling but it feels like it’s only happening more because collies walked away rather than us outright beating them back. Abandoned ward first flip felt like the only offensive fight this war that was an actual battle and not just us walking into pve. And even that was a like an 8 hour arty op with 150mm. (For me, cuz I’m not everywhere)

I’ve killed around 40ish pieces of armor this war, lost about 20, can tell you the last 6 pieces of armor I’ve lost, I prob only killed 1. Feels like these new super caliber weapons are just overtuned,or the health for every tank is just too close together despite the difference in class and armament.

Overall it’s hard to have the fun I used to in this game when i add up how many hours of doing non fun labor, I need to do and realizing the things I enjoy either no longer matter or the Meta has changed.

Tank lines are fun , but when both sides are afraid to be 1 shot disabled, it’s just driving back and forth.
