I don’t know why they made this change in the first place but with the new 10 year bomb respawn timer you basically cannot bomb unless you are the fastest plane on the team.
The respawn is way too long and just means that once the bomb bases have been destroyed the only way to get more is to either fly to a corner of the map of hope your team draws out the battle for what feels like an hour.
Either increase bomb base HP so more people can bomb them, increase the number of bomb bases, or give back the old shorter timer.
