To clear up confusion about last part of the video; I dont want defend the d point to mean 'thank you' but rather 'your welcome' in *response* to thank you. At the moment:
*friendly repairs you*
"Thank you very much!"
"I agree!"
vs
"Thank you very much!"
"Your welcome!"

    Dude why are u no voice actor. Clear but unique. But thats off topic. I would like to see a comeback of the d point . just like in naval , where you have this unlockable c point, it would give the pushing team having a huge benefit, especially for mid game comebacks

I actually wish they would bring them back, as they were an easy source of XP & SL farming.

    How about a similar video on why the balloons on Normandy show up in the kill feed? For those who don't know, back in the day you would get a very small amount of SL and RP per every balloon you shot down. There was always a race to kill as many of them as possible in the beginning of the match. There's a lot of new players in the game and I'd bet some old ones may have forgotten about it as well. It's a similarly useless but interesting tidbit as the D point.

    I remember when the Carpathians has bots charging with you, Kursk had AI anti-tank gun batteries and a swarm of bots, Gualdacanal has a fleet of landing ships and landing boats with AA guns, and the D point still exists with the cargo plane airdrop. These AIs really added to the battlefield atmosphere of the game, but of course they deleted all of them because greedy bastards don't want you to kill AIs in order to grind through stock parts and FPEs - "it's like giving out a free Abrams". P.S. The D point was also used in Helicopter arcade battles (remember that shitshow? LOL), along with E, F, and G points. The UI still only goes up to D though.

    The D point on Carpathians was a smaller capture zone, large enough for around 2 tanks. Inside the zone were some actual supply crates with maybe some cargo netting covering one of them, this was a long time ago so I can't describe 100% how it looked like but it gives you a general idea. I don't remember what triggerd it to appear. Still remember capturing it like it was yesterday.

    There also used to be a battle mode called Break, where each team held two zones and they had to be captured in succession: Team 1 had zones A and B, and Team 2 had zones C and D. Team 2 would have to assault and capture zone A before B became available, while Team 1 had to attack and capture C before D became available.

    The D point also existed on the kuban map, where a Yak-9T would shoot down a Do-217 above the battlefield, and where the crash site would become the D point, with the objective of capturing the secret documents the plane was carrying. It also existed in heli arcade battles for a while, alongside the A, B, C, E and F point (

    Don't have any footage of it, but I was playing War Thunder back in the days when the D point existed. Capped a few as well. The capture circle was tiny, and an actual supply drop of sorts (models of what looked like long green rectangular boxes stacked into a cube) was spawned for it. The cap circle around the crate was just big enough that only a single tank would fit between the crate and the circle border. The crate was about the height of your tank's hull, but it didn't have a hit box so shells could just whiz right through it. The spawn was supposed to be random but it seemed to only ever spawn on the hill that overlooked the entire map when I was playing. Usually on the side of a near-vertical hill.

    when i play carpathians i always try to remember to hit attack the D point at the start of the game. old players get it and i do sometimes get people responding saying it should be back in the game. i only ever got the point three times. to start with i didn't know what it looked like (it was a pile of boxes if you didn't know). but i soon stopped going for it as everyone would drop arty on it and you could be sniped from the rocks by both sides. the number of times i got killed crawling up the slop. it was a fun little extra and would be nice to see back in the game.

    bots themselves quite had changes over time, with map variations. (they lasted longer than D) one were they would spawn later, at the outside area of the maps and drove in a group, with one tank being a "commander" with a mission to kill it. another where they would spawn early and drive to the middle of the map.

    i remember the D point and the frontlines mode which had multiple changing objectives and moving spawns where there were a total of six points (3 for allies to capture and 3 for enemies to capture). it was chaotic because the spawns would follow the points so it was pretty easy to accidentally start spawn camping so gaijin removed it. I really would like to see them bring it back though

    The D point exists. in 2018, It was a cap point on sim sands of sinia, sim sands of tunisia and sim fields of normady. The map configurations would contain the sections which would be split into 2 different maps in RB and AB. But were 1 big map in sim. Unfortunatly, these were removed right when gaijin added MBTs which would benefit from large maps. The same time they removed BR bracket maps.

    The D point existed on other maps too. I remember on Kuban there would be a Pe-2 AI that would crash and that would be the D point. The objective being to rescue the pilot and Intel or capture them depending on team. I believe this was also on another map but I can't recall. Additionally the D point i believe still exists in Air game modes and Enduring Confrontations.

    I kinda like the idea of a new point or something else coming in dynamically in a map to give an advantage to the team that captures it/destroys it or whatever. It would add a little bit of good randomness, and something that players will really want to fight over. That’s just my thoughts on it though
