This isn’t a legitimate excuse Air Battles are not “combined arms”.
If they wish to make true to their word and allow me to spawn as a SPAA in Air Realistic Battles then I would be inclined to value their statement.

Bombs in Arcade have a 5 to 6-second timer before they go boom. Realistic that is variable and adjustable and often we set it anywhere between 1->3 seconds. You also have a 30-second timer on your planes in Arcade, in RB it isn’t a thing. So you’re complaining over something so little it makes no sense. When the game itself purposely handicaps you when you spawn in a plane which often may not even happen since it likely will get cancelled. Bombers or any plane with a bomb is often shot down before it gets to the actual map.

I don’t understand what you said, I played 9000 games in tank arcade mode, with a total win rate of 54%, I don’t need your guidance, I just want to play pure tank battles in War Mine, that’s what I think.
Figured that was the type of person I was speaking to. I don’t play arcade anymore but I find this just as amusing as I would with the RB side of the community.
Same argument, same people. different gamemode. You all want planes to magically go away, which fundamentally just means why at all take out any SPAA that no longer fulfills its purpose of self-propelled anti-air.

My queue time is almost inexistent in Ground Arcade cause I play with 3 servers selected. You may have the wrong idea cause of this forum where most that post play Realistic, it was the same on the old forum and still is what happens in WT Reddit. Most Arcade players don’t care about the forums anymore since most changes to the game seem to be related to Realistic, but back in 2015 when I started playing and using the WT forum the Arcade section was pretty busy every day.
If you have the time you can do the same as that other guy and check all the replays to really say which game modes are the most played, without doing it you cannot say that Realistic has more players than Arcade based on just your own queue experience. One thing is for sure, in 2021 Ground Arcade was the most played game mode in War Thunder, and by far.
About the topic, Gaiijn won’t ever remove planes from Arcade or Realistic Ground Battles, as someone above said, for them this is a “combined arms” game. Then you would create other problems like what are you gonna kill with SPAAs? I know that many use them as a light or medium tank but their main role is to kill planes. If you haven’t noticed also, most of the new premium or event planes are CAS related, Gaijin sells them with Ground Battles in mind. Same goes for Helicopters, they are meant to be used in Ground Battles, not so much in Helicopter game mode.
So since I don’t believe that Gaijin will ever remove planes from any ground mode, I think what could be asked is for them to balance them against tanks, by making them much more expensive to use, to restrict some that are too OP(like B29s) or even to restrict them to certain loadouts. Among other things that make the CAS mechanic a pure manipulation of every match.

Isn’t it funny that CASvocates debunk themselves?
Most of the time they go off when they impact, so you failed.
It is not 30s.
It is not “so little”. CAS spawns directly above the battlefield, so you don’t have to take off from the airfield and travel 10km!
You can just carpet bomb a part of the map, and you will get many kills. Even if you get a bomber with only 1-3 bombs, you can make all of them count.
Same goes for rockets.
Cannon only CAS can make multiple turns, and destroy multiple open tops.
But sure, “so little”…
The opposite is true. See my reasons above.
Maybe, tho since the trash kill mechanic with planes, they will still fly and be able to drop bombs even after they were “shot down”.
Let me answer this for you.
Bombs in arcade have a 5-6 second timer
First of all, planes in AGB don’t have a 5-6 second timer, the time varies between impact and 5 seconds (and the planes which have this long delay can be counted with one hand)
30-second timer on your plane
Wrong even here:planes have a 60-second timer,while helicopters have something between 80 and 100 seconds
Let’s talk how in Arcade,especially in the BR bracket of 7.0/8.7 you have jets with so many bombs that a single run can effectively turn the tide of the battle,while having no proper SPAA at that bracket to counter them easily (you can use an A-10 in a 8.0 match,i’m not kidding)
Or let’s talk how,once you hit 9.0,there’s the opposite problem: you can’t even spawn into a plane/heli that the enemy Strela (and i assure you that there’s always a Strela) will obliterate you (spawning at 3-4 kms from the map is not ideal)
And if you don’t have a Strela or other SAM systems?you’re screwed,simple. I wasted a belt of my M247 against a Mi-28N that spawned behind my spawn and didn’t hit him a single time,while he calmly launched an ATGM at me, vaporizing me
i have 4542 Arcade battles completed (and still counting),and CAS here is a worse problem that it is on GRB,i can assure you

Ah yes. Top tier… look Top tier in AB, RB is hell. If you think you have it bad. Imagine the entire enemy team being large payloads of bombs. In RB, rinse and repeat. I get the 1 minute is bad. But it’s so much worse in RB. The top Tier I’m speaking from that is.
I by no means do not disagree with many of the points you have stated however I do not believe that sentiment. RB is a lot more of a hell compared, but not by much.
Ah yes, when CASvocates are so butthurt that they start mass flagging an argument they can’t argue against… What a shocking thing!

For me planes have their place in the game cause if you delete planes people will start crying (more) about campers BUT i’m more for using my own planes like in naval instead of using shit random planes i don’t want (or that are nearly useless).
Well we constantly write in the forum but Gaijin seems to ignore the issue and rework with no actual meaning in gameplay, sure 10 years pass and they take off the recycle from fighters and spotting ability good chance overall but they put more and more respawn planes + helicopters behind spawn and this is just ridiculous AAA can’t def you respawn and get carpet bombed not to mention you try to aim at someone and you get bombed or rocket busted from behind is total BS seems we need to wait another 10 years till something get done 11 years BETA , they can fix it easily but what they want is 2 min battle one side for more frustrating the players trying to do BS daily missions for the Traffic in the game just put the enemy plane respawn behind tank respawn so the AA actually can protect the allys and planes need to work for the kill right now is completely idiotic worst than before.
