The bases that we bomb in Air RB - perhaps Air AB and SB too but I don’t play those at the moment - need to respawn quicker once destroyed than they do now in most maps. A very few maps - Sinai is one - have reasonable respawn rates. As a player using an A-10 I can’t compete against fast movers who also bomb so once destroyed I have to wait. In a match I just played on Pyrenees the enemy team was destroyed before a single base respawned.
I completly agree, the base respawn time is ridicolus rn. if you dont have a fast plane then you are f*cked
rn they do not respawn at all
Yep! Here come the stealth nerfs to negate all the Roadmap changes!
Do we need to go on strike AGAIN?
WTStona, any input?
Good thing they do it now. So I don’t buy premium stuff that would use bases for grind. Lots of $ saved.
Looks like it. In my first 5 ARB matches I’ve found multiple stealth nerfs that weren’t in the “full list of changes”. Don’t worry though, the Propaganda Ministry will just say it’s all in your imagination. If you don’t believe them, INTO THE GULAG COMRADE!!!
care 2 share?
Bases in ARB not respawning. Good luck bombing a base with something like the A-10. F-14 bombs are now mach limited to 1.0. Found those in just my first 3 matches of the patch. Can’t wait to see what other ways they’ve screwed up the game.
So 2 nerfs?
Bases not respawning
and
Mach 1.0 limit on some bombs.
Um, those are just the ones I found in my first 3 matches since the update. Give me time. If I found two THAT fast, I’m sure there are more.
Seriously what is the point of adding a plane that can take out 7 bases if you will only allow 4 bases to be destroyed for the entire team?
You know that you can drop these “bombs” on other things too?
They’re trying to negate bombing bases as a way to grind. That means grinding planes is tougher. Which means people get fed up with it and buy GE. Gaijin just stealth nerfing it to try to negate the economy changes they made. They want the money, and they’ll do whatever they can to get it. They didn’t learn at all from the strike earlier this year.
Not for the same RP return. Not by a LONG shot.
But that was not his question.
Nobody is going to bring out a 2000lb mk84 that massively decreases flight performance only to drop it on a piece of artillery that gives a measly ~200SL. Especially when that artillery could be destroyed with literally 5 rounds from a vulcan. Let’s not kid ourselves here, the game is set up in a way where the only reason anyone would use bombs in airRB is to destroy bases.
That is from a pure grind perspective. If you want to win, you drop them anywhere BUT on bases.
You want to waste bombs on ground targets that can easily be taken out with a few bullets, you go for it.
