Abuse of incendiary bombs in fighters

It helps tbh. I’ve had many rounds where I was at the airfield (my plane has slow acceleration so don’t blame me) and game ended because of repeated ground pounding from the another team

It’s not a instant win battle, but more of a supplement.

Which was a problem on some maps before Gaijin nerfed the AI participation. It’s not a point of contention anymore. AI will only finish the match if completely left to their own devices.

What? YOUR OWN TEAM’S AI WILL KILL TARGETS, WHICH WILL REMOVE SAID TARGETS FROM THE FIELD. WHEN THIS IS DONE, IT REMOVES THEM AS A TARGET FOR PLAYERS. WHEN THE AI ATTACKERS DESTROY GROUND TARGETS, IT DOES NOT SUBTRACT TICKETS. THIS MEANS THAT IF YOU DON’T WIN VERY EARLY INTO THE MATCH VIA GROUND TARGETS, YOU WON’T BE ABLE TO BECAUSE THERE WON’T BE ENOUGH TO SUBTRACT ENOUGH TICKETS! I WENT OVER THIS IN THE LINK I’VE NOW GIVEN YOU THREE TIMES.

Apparently reading comprehension is very hard for the forums

Actually, yes it does. Gaijin only nerfed their participation in how often they destroy a target, which still subtracts tickets. As for if an AI kills a target before you do; Boohoo, is what it is. If AI did nothing people would complain, and they were complaining when AI was carrying matches. Now it’s an ok middle ground at best, and people like you are still complaining.

I’ve already stated that we need larger maps with more objectives and targets that are more spread out. Unfortunately, we’re stuck with Gaijin sitting on their fat slav arse and doing F-All even after 11 years.

No, this is simply false.

Just lost all respect for you with this comment because you’re too egotistical to literally read what is being said to you and instead you insult me

No, no it isn’t. You have 24K battles. How are you this daft? Lol. Lmao.

I respected you quite a bit before this exchange.

Ok, feller. You believe what you want along with your pals from Reddit. I frankly don’t give a shit lmao.

Where the f* do you think the screenshot comes from? When I find it in a moment and give you the official link, what excuse will there be then?

Edit: How do you suppose this happens then? Since you refuse to visit the link I posted three times.

You’re getting caught up in insignificant details instead of seeing the big picture.

Given the current state of balancing, the only factor that actually determines the outcome of an air RB match is whether or not your team wins the deathmatch. On the rare occasions where ticket drain via AI ground target destruction comes into play, it is only ever as a formality to finalize the victory of whichever team was victorious in the deathmatch. We NEVER see matches where red team is absolutely killing it in the air but blue team’s ground attackers snagged victory from the jaws of defeat due to efficient destruction of bases and AI ground targets.

It doesn’t not matter one bit if the victorious red team chooses to deal with the blue team’s stragglers by waiting out the clock, mopping up a few ground targets, or making a daring dash through the airfield AAA to finish off the final blue straggler. No matter what decision that the red team chooses, the blue team still lost. They lost because they failed to win the deathmatch, because the deathmatch is the deciding factor that dictates which team will win and which one will lose.

and let me put some emphasis here, this is EXTREMELY rare at most BRs.

It should be noted that this USED to happen, but doesn’t now due to the way gaijin has vanilla-fied every map to be the same experience with no difference in ground targets or their significance. They have reduced the game fully to TDM.

So what, bombers/strike aircrafts apart from top br ones are usless anyway, gajin nerfed bombers and strikers to usless levels since long time ago.

But we have to use incendary bombs to grind first before we can get better weapons. Playing without missles in that Br is Pain

You get missiles stock,so dont lie.

not every plane is it?

And those stock missiles are trash; every fighter can easily out turn it.

So you decide to make them even worse by being a bad teammate?

Lots of players = lots of opinions = everyone plays differently…

  • someone believes in the hellish ball of planes, in the middle of the map
  • someone likes to play a mission type game (bombing the base, on the way back destroying some ground AAA or joining the battle, after a lot of players are already out of the game)
  • someone has no talent for dogfights, just grinds ground AI
  • someone plays with a mouse, someone plays with a mouse-joystick, someone with a joystick, someone with a gamepad
  • in one particular battle different planes appear that would never meet in real life
    … and I could go on and on…

If it were a game where there was an accurate historical set of fighter planes, everyone would only have one type of specific control device for the game, the same graphics settings, the same powerful PC, etc. , so you can talk about a balanced game and demand that players play a team fighter duel …

This is how every air battle is, a mix of everything possible and everyone can play it how they want … that’s just how it is…!

Gaijin offers a solution that is in development and is called Ace Of Thunder, there should be historical sets of machines, historical locations, one type of control ( PSVR2 headset ) … and it is from the beginning, a paid game…

No it isn’t.

Because your team lost A2A in current bullshit TDM meta

They just grabbed ‘Extra rewards’ (which you always barked) because nobody in your team were able to stop them.

Shooting the bot ground target is completely useless and not helpful for winning a match.
You still will be lost in that match even if the enemy decides not to shoot at the ground.
Because they still can kill you even if you hide from those base SPAA.

It has no other impact than [make them win ‘faster’]


And that is why both dedicated strike aircraft and napalming fighters are completely worthless if we consider no other factors but winning.

In the current meta, as a joke with no sincery,
The best way to fix the game is

  • Removing payloads from every jets which classified as ‘fighter’
  • Removes ground targets and bot attackers either.
  • Complete removal of strike aircraft and bombers from ARB.
  • banning every accounts in ARB who aren’t fighter jocks.

Then nobody will abuse incendiary bombs, nobody will freeride the game when someone fights at dogfight.
