again with 0 IQ take, the EC maps doesn’t even have enough target and literally 90% of the top tier air RB population is fighter, none of them going to bother to hit the goddamed studebakers. flawed solution? 6v6? look at your 'AiR rB eC Is bEtTeR" ass take.
And to that I will have to discount the fact that single runway is not enough for EC, AT ALL, and they force single runway for EC. Some fucking how.
Well not everyone likes EC maps, thats also the case, good chunk of players that doesn’t like or don’t know how to fight except slinging missiles most likely will leave from such maps and search for another match after crew lock expires or in another jet.
Yes i agree they should improve the target selection for EC maps
Yes i agree altering the insentive structure to favor people going after PVE targets would be ideal. The new ticket drain changes have been good at doing so for instance.
If one cares about a more distributed air engagements, yes it is. Can you do it without EC style design? Sure, but it would probably follow many of the same thing EC does to avoid people concentrating in the middle of the map
Yep, its why i recognize that further development is unlikely. Like there are reasons why Air spawn city was so popular while EC maps were not.
Yep, and if i were frank id splitt Air RB into an air arcade style match like airspawn city and RB EC style. But i suspect the playerbase just isn’t there for it, be it in popularity or the fact Realistic has afaik way less matches compared to Arcade.
fucking EC doesn’t even have more than 1 airfield, your suggestion is not even suggestion, it’s just shilling.
RBEC has iirc bro.
keep shilling, RB EC wont come back and 6v6 is an easier solution to implement
or roll back to 12vs12 under 11.3BR and switch to 6v6 or 8v8 in 11.7BR and higher.
As one of Gen’1 jet mains, 16vs16 is just clusterfuck and nobody asked.
It is funny changing from 12vs12 to 16vs16 even, despite refusing to decompression because of queue times.
There you go, there you fucking go.
Stop shilling, this game is already bad without you shilling for it.
I dont understand how me wanting Gaijin to improve what is very clearly a flawed game mode is shilling.
Yes it is by no means detailed enough to be a suggestion, its a vague idea of what i think Air RB should be
Yep, Air RB EC style maps are not perfect. I have indicated as such in the message you responded to
Yes it is exceedingly unlikely to come back any time soon.
Thats why i haven’t been talking about RB EC. Ive been talking about the EC style maps and mission styles current seen in the Air RB matchmaker (on the rare occasion you get those). If that was unclear, my bad.
I think every match in Air RB should at the bare minimum have a similar target and objective distribution as what the EC style maps in Air RB offer.
Damn, didnt know shilling was when you critize game modes for being flawed and talking about how things could be better.
I thought it was when you uncritically judge a product or idea as positive.
Yes i critique dumb arguments and solutions i think are flawed.
Your solution is literally flaw, your solution revolve around something that hasn’t been a thing for several years, you’re a delusional “Back in my days” shill.
RB EC style maps are currently in the Air RB queue right now (as in current map rotation)
So if by “back in my day” you mean when i last played Warthunder which was yesterday, then yes.
Currently flawed as fuck too, bigger map with less airfield? less spread out objectives? attacker - oriented objectives?
Yep, it can certainly use some improvements
Edit: as a concept, i think its a good baseline
But it doesn’t answer the currently existing problem, that’s what’s wrong with you shill, you talk about some big grande concept when the base isn’t even good, work with what you have first or just shut your trap altogether.
It is an answer to mitigate the problems 16v16 have on regular maps.
EC style maps is something we have currently that does work in spreading out players. Its playable right now where very minor changes would solve the major complaints (outside of those who want knife fight gameplay in a big furball) to be mitigated or resolved.
Is it more work than changing the config file for the matchmaker? Sure, but its also not some large concept like bringing back RB EC would be
You just want to talk about shit when it’s not even worth talking in the first place, we got small map with 60% usage, fix that with smaller matchmaking, then go talk about that “eC sTyLe Rb” that i’m sure nobody will fucking even look at in the first place if they didn’t main attacker.
Or this is just another CAS main propaganda, in which case just quit existing.
