    Default Why did you join AOD War Thunder Division?

    I'm creating this post to gather information for people to discuss.

    Whether you decided to leave your choice anonymously, or make your choice & share it as a comment below, it is up to you.

    There has been no discussion as to why many of us here actually decided to join AND stay in AOD - WT Division.

    I'm doing this out of my own curiosity that I think could benefit all of us by knowing what each person likes about AOD, WT, or as an all around gamer.

    8. Because AOD is an established gaming community.

    and

    1. To simply play with other people.

    You need 8 to have a fun 1.

    Coming from a clan that didn't have a vigorous WT division, it was tough to have #1 if your community isn't varied with diff time zones and lots of peeps. You could hear the crickets on TS.

    Not so in AOD.

    Not that I don't want to play competitively, I just can't assure I would be there all the time like i used to be way back in MoH:AA's OGL days.. :) lol and I have a macbook pro i play on, connected to my 52" flatscreen.. works well for warthunder but I don't think it would work well if i installed windows through bootcamp and tried to part-time sayyyyy battlefield.. tried crossover one time with ps2 and had like 15-30fps in battles lolol, otherwise i'd probably play a little part-time here and there.. would be nice to snipe some old mohaa members cough::sniper*::cough, but Warthunder is like 2 games in one anywayz.. and they are working on warships for WT and infantry among other things..(think the infantry will be some sort of AI and it's already somewhat implemented.. saw a video of a guy getting shot down by infantry rifle fire on youtube).

    • I did a great deal of research on different squads before joining AOD a year ago. As a long time simracer I was used to being a part of a racing community(team/league) and I was tired of flying alone. My three basic requirements were:
      1) Must be professional, structured, and well organized AOD: Check
      2) Must place ethics and sportsmanship above winning AOD: Check
      3) Must acknowledge it's just a game and keeps things fun (which in turn attracts fun people to fly with) AOD: Check

      As far as how I answered the survey:

      To simply play with other people.
      More than "simply to play" but to a be a member of a community of like minded pilots/tankers who empasize ethics and fair play
      • To simply fly/tank AB with other people. (subset of 1)
      • To simpy fly/tank RB/SB with other people. (subset of 1)

    • Because of the weekly training sessions/events. These were very useful in the beginning but now start before I get home from work.
    • Because AOD is an established gaming community. The structure, organization and professionalism were and remain very important to me

    I put option 9. But mostly because I joined AOD before War Thunder was a twinkle in a Russian Dev's eye...

    I was with a few of the better players from an old game which is still alive, Allegiance (FreeAllegiance.org) and we started playing WT together. As time went on they stopped playing WT but I enjoyed it... got tired of playing by myself... Google WT communities to join and AOD was the first hit!

    I know how romantic right! :)

    Therefore, I picked #1

    it has been so long that I can't remember why I joined or even how I found AOD. I do remember the great impression DraigUK left though.
