My crew skills are maxed out on everything (air, naval, ground). I don’t think air crew skills apply to arcade planes. Also, with some of the heavier bombers you can’t pull evasive maneuvers.
Just smh at how flimsy these planes are.
Yea, you gotta keep it moving whilst being hit. Ground AB air spawns are tricky, but they are do-able.
And yea no skills transpose, I think you only get your decals on the plane if you’re lucky.
i dunno, maybe mod the bombers so they have 50mm plating all around, and can carry 10,000lb bombs.
its clear you are having trouble
its funny how ‘flimsy’ a spaa is aginst a 1000lb bomb…
no, bombers arent needed to counter campers, thats what the artillery strikes are for…
at least artillery gives a little warning that its coming.
but then, you need to get the kills up to get the arty strikes…and therein lies your problem i think, you cant get the kills without the bombers
admit it, you are just crap at tanks and need the bombers to get your kills up.
its just one lame stretched excuse after another with you
again, its a skill issue
Of cause they have a delay fuse, it just takes them 10+ seconds before they hit the ground.
That is why I wrote NOT to be a sitting target, but to move when there are bombers in the air.
It happens everytime for me since they updated sounds a few years ago. Before I could hear every bomb that was dropped from higher altitude but now it’s either not loud enough(cause I don’t hear them) or simply the other battle sounds completely overlap it.
I play with a soundbar, not a headset, and I could clearly hear the bomb whistle before they changed it, now you have to keep looking up instead of focusing on the tank battle.
The whole CAS mechanic is a complete mess compared to what it used to be, it’s as if they made all the wrong choices, even the removal of markers they did recently could have been made so much better by just removing tank type from the markers, you don’t even see your own marker getting bombed.
Your issue is nothing to do with what was quoted…
It’s non-comparable and it’s regarded in another capacity.
My issue is exactly the same, for me, there is no more bomb whistle sound, just like the player you quoted.
well if the enemy gets PBY with a 2000lb bomb or Dornier with dropping them without diving you are screwed anyway + if you fight not many ppl can avoid them if the first wave comes and before they are in the middle of the map second wave starts behind you, Gaijin take out recycle from the fighters yes but seems most respawn are from behind of your respawn point so even if AAA player trying to take down plane another wave coming behind him leading to idiotic and pathetic gameplay 90% of the games seems to be CAS training without ending.
Enemy planes should respawn in front of you so give an opportunity to AAA to shout them down so as not to die immediately this will be more fair for their teams this same with respawn fighters sometimes you can’t even catch the bomber magically they respawn from 0.7 to 1.5km away from the fighters.
Taking out the planes from the Game in Arcade will be bad but they can do some chances with the respawn like i wrote before but seems to me we will need to wait another 10 years for it road map for 2024 go up not long ago but nothing was said about AB ground seems to me they taking care the RB mostly and don’t really give a dime for the arcade GB and this is obvious with the BR’s they implement.

Jesus, you can bottle and sell the arrogance from this thread. It is so thick.

An idea was limit de weight of bombs to 500lb or less
Then it’s a bug, and it’s not actually related to the issue you have with planes.
Well, it COULD be a bug. The speed of the bomb falling and the overall shape or profile of it would affect it. So depending on the height and method it’s dropped, that could affect it.
And then from there if it’s not acting correctly on that, then you’d likely find avenue to supply the information into a bug report.
But again, it’s not the actual reason for you being prone to air.
Agreed cuz i dont enjoy bombers doing bomber things
What if ‘Spooky’ and ‘Spectre’ got added… Would you accept their submissions?
Sorry i dont know what you are saying
Gunships.
It’s not a bug if it was an intended change by Gaijin.
I don’t have any issue with planes, if any I have an issue with how Gaijin prioritizes sound, since in my opinion, bomb whistle was actually a good way of balancing CAS effects. But it works in both ways.

You don’t know if it is, but it was working a while back, but I DO know that it could be bugged because I had the never-ending loop play out last week.
Whilst you say that this is in a thread about clearing out planes from tanks, and not about you hearing bombs.
I stopped hearing the bomb whistle that we used to have years ago when Gaijin made a big update to the game sounds, not since last week. I don’t play with a headset so it could be that you could still hear it if you use one and I don’t cause I use a soundbar, but for me I don’t hear it in years.
That is your opinion. This thread is about CAS being a problem in Ground Battles for some players, not hearing the bomb whistle only makes the situation worse in favour of CAS, so I think it has everything to do with what this thread is all about. Cause in my opinion, what we need is not the removal of planes but having a better balance between tanks and planes.
