Yep, you read that right. The maps from Ground Strike in Arcade have been added to Realistic Battles...and yes, it's the exact same spawnpoints (in the air), and the enemy is literally only 5km away from were you spawn. So now battles can be over in literally 5 minutes because everyone heading on each-other at the start of the match.
AKA its Arcade battles but with the physics of Realistic.
very nice :)
how is that a good thing?!Quote:

It's not a change to the normal Realistic "To Battle" Mode (at least that's the way I read it, will see when I get home and download the patch)
Good! ^
That's nice to hear. Now matches aren't 30 mins long.
The Arcade maps have been implemented into the map rotation, and I already went through 4 of these Arcade maps in a row with different tiers. There is no way to avoid going into these battles (besides J-ing out). It's bad enough that I already went through a few "Mixed" Air Realistic battles, now I have to go through these Arcade maps too.Quote:

most likely the game will continue to change, for years and years to come.. they are still adding more stuff, the game is not completed yet.. so they will continue to expand and try and make the game better and more enjoyable.. i think the final endgame is to have ground, air, and navy and possibly infantry.. all in on the same battles.. but that could take years and years and years to accomplish..Quote:

at least they stick around to fix the bugs and other various things that are wrong when they introduce new patches,(which always come when you are trying to make a game and introduce new stuff) etc... some games you get what you get and that is that..
a lot of people may not like what gaijin is doing but honestly, at least they do seem to listen to the community, and they continue to work on building this game.. i mean, imagine if they just stopped working on it completely and said ok 80% of the public is happy.. we are done, have fun, enjoy the game, we're gonna start a new project now.. deuces.
it is what it is..

I just don't enjoy the process of taking off and climbing for 5 minutes before the engagement begins. I was looking forward to flying more realistic. Maybe they will do what I thought they were going to do when I first read the announcement which is add the mode to the user selectable "Events" section.
