No - reason people play SPAA as TDs is because it is more funny and engaging, rather than sitting and looking for dot on sky
maybe, but rewards are still bad for killing planes.
I mean seriously, killing a plane at low tier (idk about top tier, not there yet) with an SPAA takes skill or incredible luck, for me at least. I have had an easier time killing an undamaged Maus than I have had killing planes, so I don’t understand why rewards are low, especially if you include the effect planes can have on a battle, where they can completely change the tide of the battle.
Nonetheless - increasing rewards is always a good thing

indeed.
So gaijoobles, I ask you this: can you please increase rewards for killing planes in ground battles?

Planes are worth the same as tanks, in fact are worth more.
Ground kill = 47 RP or 1000 SL
Air kill: 71 RP or 1500 SL.
What makes people think planes give bad rewards is the severe damage mechanic splitting up that 71 RP into 80% for doing the severe damage and 20% for the actual kill.
Thus when you get “Plane killed” on your feed, you’re seeing only 20% of the actual reward you received, as you already got 80% but it only shows up in your post-battle report
This is complicated by the fact that if someone else inflicted severe damage, you’ll only ever get 40% of the actual reward, and they’ll only ever get 80% of the reward (for total of 120% spread across 2 players). This is usually marked by “X finished off” or “severely damaged kill counted.”
Demonstration:
42/(42+168)x100=20%
585/(2341+585)x100=19.99%
However, when you kill an aircraft you’ll only see the 585, not the 2926
See? Plane kills are well rewarded, better than vehicle hits at least.
Problem is the fact that the bulk of your rewards in all game modes are not given for kills, but for survival and maintaining score at a prescribed minimum.
huh, okay. that’s news to me.
Im bored because its takes ages to research 1 vehicle, and no new vehicles or fun vehicles are being added when they should. Most tanks mow have 5sec reload, vehicle that should of been added 2 years or 1 year ago still havent been added. There’s no fun at all, i get on every update, nothing new or enjoyable, get off till next update.
Well if we actually could enjoy the vehicles we are taking so much time spading I’m indeed pretty sure poeple would be a lot less negative and bored of the game but the map design and gamemodes are so bland that it’s becoming boring very, very quick.
Well in that case the addition of a new gamemode wouldnt hurt you anyways?
I wouldnt mind CAS as much if the maps were bigger and they wouldnt have to look for me and my allies in a 500m radius but the maps are so cramped that it’s inevitable that you will get bombed much more often than not. And planes shouldnt be as easy to get into anyways but that’s another topic.
