How is that not fair? At no point I’m using broken game mechanics to fix my mistakes. They landed because of their choices. Tough luck.
guess players shouldnt choose to fly yaks
They should learn to aim. If you mean Yak-15 it is absolutely OP, low ammo is the broken balancing factor. Broken because if you can aim or manage to use AF AAA, it’s not a real issue. Same goes for BI (which can cruise for entire game at 750 with 1m of fuel because stalinium magic)…
and if af aaa was to be removed those aircraft would, by all logic, have to go even lower, no?
No, they wouldn’t. People with no idea would stop using them, and good players would push them all the way up, just like it happened to Reeeeeee.2005. Gaijin’s balancing algorithm is a joke.

Nope we won most games it just losers avoiding the fight entirely to come do repeated low passes on airfield to farm a high kdr without actually fighting anyone
So they lost anyway? Where’s the issue? That you got clapped because you failed to make sure you can land safely?
Yes that is my problem
Exactly, that is your problem, and you make it sound like it should be wverybody’s problem, that you aren’t allowed to spend as much time circling AF as you want.
Landing happens very rarely, especially with 25m matches. What happens a lot more often is AF campers ruining the game for everyone.
Damn when AF AAA did not work at all, I got strafed 0 times total. Get gud.

Nobody is saying 9.3 AA is busted. It’s not. It’s actually fairly reasonable, and it would be pretty good to see the SACLOS nerf reverted so the SAMs are more dangerous. The thing about top tier AA is that it’s counterable since pretty much everything has CCIP and bombs or rockets at that BR, if not guided munitions, and coming top-down is a viable strategy. Whereas at prop tier, the airfield is a 4km killzone that doesn’t care what angle you come from. You can destroy top tier AA if you put in the effort, you can’t do the same to lower tier AA.

IIRC, current 7.7-9.7BR AF SAMs are gone and SPAA was replaced to the M19 so, they are useless like pre AF SAMs days.
Whatever, it is really good things because min fuel spammers and braindead afterburner overusers actually get punished.

rofl landing happens near every match I play mate wth are u doing ??? You sound like your entire game experience is different than mine like I never see people circling airfield thats a myth to me the only people circling airfields in my games are people trying to ninja people who landed

In real life airfields have triple aaa if they lose the airfield they pull back and more than likely bomb it it, not make pretty circles
That is a lame response
Do remember you’re the one who only plays GRB… for CAS. You can’t talk about ARB if you don’t play it
I play ARB lots I mean ive ground out 3 different air tree’s I just dont realky bring bombers or attackers to air other than to finish a daily mission and yea I play ground to smash tanks in an Aircraft I wouldnt play ground battles if you couldnt… I sure dont play that other game thats Tanks only Tanks are boring to me…
“Sadly there are plenty of players who will report you for Passive Behaviour if you circle your airfield; this reeks of impatience or the lack of a co-ordinated plan to win as a team”
Because it is literally Passive Behavior to do stuff like space climb when you’re the last one left, circle your airfield, keep running back and forth across the map in something that outspeeds everything else at your BR, etc.

bro, its amazing if top tier aa even starts shooting, let alone hit anything
When i was playing yesterday, the enemy jet was flying over the heli spawn and flak explosions where all around the jet but it never took damage. It should have been taking some damage, not like a instant kill or anything but it should have taking some damage. I think there should be some sort of risk when to a player when they are going over an airfield or a heli spawn, as it stands most people dont get damaged at all over heli spawns.
Have in mind that the thread is tagged “air-rb” - there are no helipads in Air RB.
In addition there are major differences in af aaa between Air RB and Air SB - even within Air RB we have 100% deadly af aaa around prop BRs in opposition to jet BRs. Those jet players report useless af aaa for their BRs.
This thread exists mainly to get rid of af aaa in Air RB in general, so you won’t find many guys asking for a buff of af/helipad aaa.
In any case (just for prop BRs):
The removal of af aaa on forward airfields made the maps much bigger due to reduction of “no-fly” zones for prop BRs and is especially mid to late match a very nice improvement to fight the hordes of Wyverns as the experienced ones now rearm at their main af - giving you extra time to climb to get the necessary alt advantage to intercept them.
Ofc i see guys farming enemy players landing/repairing/rearming on the forward enemy airfield, but from a general pov their victims haven’t done their homework, af aaa was removed around as week ago.
Real funny are those guys trying to lure others in non-existing af aaa…
