This Game Has The WORST Maps

turns out forcing modern MBTs to knifefight like tanks from 80 years ago is a bad idea - I don't think anyone could have foreseen that

worst part is, maps that used to be good are actively made worse because if anything deviates from a 3-lane MOBA map, gaijin will mald

- spawn to spawn sightlines - strictly 3 choke points that flood with dead carcasses after 2 minutes into the game - The C point is far away from the rest -all flank routes are punished with extremely open sightlines - advantageous positions are forcibly blocked off by invisible barriers the pinnacle of map design

I just wish they stopped removing flanking routes and trying to make every single map like a 3 lane CoD map because of sub brick IQ players that have no situational awareness.

War Thunder's biggest issue is that they have VERY little gameplay variety. They force every vehicle into the same type of gameplay - ww2 style, close quarters TDM. The only exception to this are the Sim modes that tend to last hours. So your only choices are 5-10 minutes or 2+ hours. There's no 20-30 minute gameplay for the average player.

the kamchatka floating tree will always have a place in my heart

Map design is god awful, and on many maps they limit where you can go. On Mozdok you used to be able to use the hill to cover the A object if you turned right from one of the spawns. Nah not since January or so. European Province 2.0 or whatever the really lazy literal carbon copy with a near identical river and terrain layout is called. You can only fight on one side of the river in many game modes. (but the laziness of this map is a whole other discussion) When your best maps are the maps that are 14 years old, Its clear map design is not at the forefront of things they prioritise. and it's what's driven me away from the game, playing Sversk 13 times in a row. It stops me from wanting to play. Oh wait nah thats a lie I didnt play the same Sversk map 13 times in a row, it would alternate with snow and no snow versions

Gaijin actively worsens maps even. Current Devserver, large version of Sinai. The coolest part, a huge mountain in the center with big rock formations was removed

3:10 Oxy jumpscare (thanks I needed a bit of you but also oxy to brighten my day)

One thing you didn't mention is Gaijin quest to kill flanking and to make every map they update worse them they were before. Seriously that last one is ridiculous, I can't name a single map that was worse before they updated it. There is also their fetiche in making the maps purposely unbalaced by removing flanking routes and sniping spots from one side and not the other.

Never played World of Tanks? If War Thunder maps are horrible (which a good part of them is) then WoT‘s ones are below zero

Gaijin be like "Let's add all those vehicle categories" And then make them all fight on the shortest range possible.

If anyone at Gajin had any human decency, they'd scrap ALL the ground maps and make the new roster from scratch.

90% of WT's map issues could be solved by using Simulator maps, they are absolutely massive versions of the regular maps, with wildly different gameplay (good example of this used to be that shitty muddy castle map, which was fun in simulator because it had ranges beyond 45 meters)

3:10 what is that? Wtf is that?

It's gotten this bad because the game was never originally designed to get to this era of vehicles. The Korean war period was supposed to be the peak. The maps for air and ground were set up for dogfights and old fashioned tank slug fests, we are now in the era of one shot one kill precision weapons systems that are considered short range when, in the case of air, used within ten miles (about 16km) and in the case of tanks 1.5km.

And then the large maps for hightier are often also spawn-to-spawn shooting, it's just you're firing 2km away instead of 500m.

The thougth around making WT maps for gaijin is that they need to be shit apparently

there was an exploit which you could do to quit matches on maps you dont like without map-ban or getting a crewlock yeah, exiting a match without getting a crew lock, how cool is that?

4:20 one spot is almost completely open to A and needs careful management of cover, especially in big MBTs, to stay hidden from fire....

I think a good solution to a lot of problems would be to rework spawn protection entirely. I feel like gaijin encourages spawn killing with current set up. Instead of a 1 or 2 spawn location, make it so players can spawn anywhere on their side of the map within say 150m of the map edge. Would make it much harder for enemies to lock down spawns.

My list of "balanced" maps (Low-tier) 1. Ash River (forget about the sniping spot) 2. Cargo Port Small but atleast not to cramped like Sweden or Alaska 3. Poland There is village if you like urban battles and the C-Point if you like hill battles 4. Tunisia CQB? Just go to the fortress Long range? Just go to the river 5. Abandoned Factory Same like Cargo Port 6. Golden Quarry Same like Cargo Port and AF 7. Site 2271 Same like Tunisia

i totally didnt recognize that logo in the thumbnail immediately

You cannot hide from me, frog man I am everywhere I am him by the might of war Thunder by the king of the snail. I shall cast you into a frog and also a simp

Personally I like close range maps a lot more. I can rely on my ears instead of thermals and a rangefinder I dont have yet. Simply just sniping and not being able to push an objective because of sniper lines just seems too braindead of gameplay for me. I need to think about how I move tactically

They should make it that spawn camping gives way way less spawn points per kill, meaning getting destroyed while trying to spawn camp will send you to hanger

Maps 👍

Gaijin: Lets make a game that has completely unrealistic combat, but lets give it realistic maps because we hate fun!

next time can you make the volyom highter cus i cant hear you talk and i got al lmy sound FULL up

I don't fully mind the maps but I do wish that they added more historical maps and a ground campaign. Also they should have a map maker just for fun

The fact that spawn camping is even a thing shows how shit these maps are. A well balanced map doesn't allow players to even move into the other spawn, let alone see into it. Not to mention all the other crap that's wrong with the game, like the several hundred hour grind and pay to win bullshit.

Maps would be better if they actually were fully copy-pasted from real locations and stopped relying on gamey stuff to make maps "fit in". Who would think that putting vehicles that are designed for certain environments into said environments would create good gameplay, right?

Can you grind out France when the BeNeLux sub-tech tree comes out?

also gaijin hate snipping spot...lot of snipping spot got purged by gaijin

Blood gulch!

You probably haven’t seen World of tanks map design, thy literally make positions for a single team and then mirror it for another

for all those mad that gaijin now locks of large chunks of maps. The footage at around 4:40 shows the exact reason why. because people who rush spawncamping positions exists. And they are almost always the same people who call this "flanking" So here a bit of education for all those this applies to Rushing along the far side of a map to reach a spot to snipe into the enemy spawn or at routes from the spawn to objectives, but still closer to the spawn than to the objective, is called spawncamping and has nothing in common with flanking. The act of flanking is simple and percise. It is the act of taking the shortest route possible to engage enemies in strategic location from their side or rear in order to avoid engaging them head-on Neither does the act of flanking involve "sniping" or "spawncamping" it can be done on any type of ma, be it city map with flanking by taking the next street over, to field style maps where gaijin places roads in lowered positions which allow for the same manouver. People who claim flanking is impossible in WT are not reffering to flanking but to the act of rushing into a position inorder to spawncamp. Hence why the map of "Poland" will loose most of its northern and southern area in the next patch, including those used for legitamite flanking, simply because people abuse the map to facilitate spawncamping.

1:53 No way you actually one shot that, in my case the sabot goes right through the ammo carousel without doing any damage ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

One one hand, yes, I'd love for them to finally figure out how to better rework and balance the maps. On the other hand, well, 6:50.

Of all the maps, I found Mozdok the worst simply because if one side is winning, you cannot drive out of your spawn at all. It's so darn terrible. Outdated as shit for high tier, shouldn't even be in the rotation. But it's not like that's the only map that I dislike... boy, there are many. And all they do? Make certain areas inaccessible... War Thunder's devs are either too lazy to make any real changes, or too stupid to make *good* changes.

There is sooo many maps that gaijin uses that basically exist as a giant useless obstacle in and of itself. Jerrycano kind of hates Carpathians ( for good reason), but Sinai, Mozdok, and the port all have huge problems game play wise. Superiority almost always revolves around control of one point. As a result people will usually cram 20-30 multiton tanks into a meat grinder solely for the purpose of area denial. Also, Britain. Every air player knows this map and I'm pretty sure they all hate it equally.

Yay Jerry posted again but unfortunately it’s another review vid

thanks jerry for making me pick ussr as my first nation back when i was new, now im researching mig 21 and 400 hours in 🔥🔥

Nah Vietnam is genuinely one of the better maps that I do not get enough of. Tired of seeing sands of Sinai and getting sniped from 20 miles away cause Germany mains don’t want to move away from that shitty hill

I leave the game when I get Vietnam, Italy or Sweden

_imagine being snoopy_

If they add a new game mode and a few maps designed specifically for it, that would be a win in my books

What, You don't like being able to push the enemy spawn 2 mins into the game? 😂

The maps are too small even for ww2 vehicles 👀

OMG someone speak about the horror how is the WT map

me when im in a jerrycano video 😏 (7:02)

but how should they fix this issue. i only hear complaints, rather than ways to fix the problem

i still hate them all the same

5:15 bad comparison, jesus

Man you forgot about breslau(which u were playing in the background). Its based on Wrocław in Poland

I like small maps like Sweden, maybe I am a little bit of a rat

there are actually like 5 maps i like out of the what, 20-30 maps?

Why dont you post as frequently anymore?

wait till you see the bullshit that is world of tanks map design

All to most maps in game are terrible and unfun to me, some take a long time to get to objectives and the action and others are just awful designs. So ya :)

While i think Flanders is probably one of the most unbalanced maps, fields of Normandy is undoubtedly the worst to play, specifically after the changes last patch.

besides the spawn to spawn comparison being bad i do agree with all your points. personally I would rather play vietnam over poland though as that map is straight ass in anything above 5.0

real ones saw this on the stream

you nevr played world of tanks

JERRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Ive never heard of this game, sounds horrible (This is sarcasm, saying this for the people who dont have a sense of humor)

bruh

>I asked Gaijin ... >A grotesque Transmission on my screen Thank God I quit playing.

Sim maps in air rb makes me want to crash my plane into the closest building i dont want to spend 10 minutes flying around because someone decided to fly to the corner of the map 100km away...
