Can we stop throwing bones to air abusers in ground realistic?

When tanks were first announced and combined arms was being advertised. This is EXACTLY what I hoped it was. for essentially an Air match happening alongside a ground match, with overlap. Not the current state we have now. (or even something like SQB that we do have now)

then again this is and would be a first of its kind so maybe it will last years to come idk

Funny cuz I never once was mean to anyone or insulted anyone and yet I was insulted lol Had to be the adult one and take it like a man instead of name calling back like a kid would. But yea, I try to show respect even though we don’t agree with things.

im just tryna catch up to me this is a completely different game now

Yeah, this is exactly the problem. Gaijin for some reason both

A) Refuse to vary the gamemodes from BR to BR outside of maybe varied map rotations
B) Refuse to even really vary the gamemodes from type to type. Things like ARB with a single runway spawn point makes sense. But both ground and naval seem to have the same spawn point mentality, and it just doesnt work for those game types

Gaijin really damaged RB AFs when they cut the time from 60 minutes to 25 minutes.

While you seldom saw hour long matches for a variety of reasons, certain mechanics relied upon longer times (such as the runway captures on Krymsk) and those enabled alternate spawns (albeit unmovable ones).

If there was a truly CA mode (RB AFs in parallel with and over the top of RB GFs battles), it’d be nice to see the two mesh and have such things as alternate spawns available.

Yeah, it would. and yeah it has. I dont play ARB much anymore. Im almost always in ASB.

Its a real shame. Its one of the biggest weaknesses of WT in my opinion. Is the gamemodes. recently gotten into GSB a bit recently. and it has some flaws, but I am enjoying it more than GRB, Though only at certain BRs.

Unless I’m mistaken people can just buy a premium aircraft and add it to their lineup. No need to grind.

Game is over 10 years old and from my understanding has gone through many changes. It’s not an air only game anymore and hasn’t been for a while so the excuse that WT started as an air only game isn’t a strong argument.

Not complaining about CAS as I like combined battles. Had some good pilots get me out of a few jams so I respect the skills they bring to the game. Love hearing the bbrrrrttt of the A-10 or seeing an F-16 screaming by as I’m trying to cap in my Abrams. (Not a fan of the drones though.) Eventually I’ll try making a serious go at aircraft but not there yet as I’ve always enjoyed tanks and still learning how to be a better tanker.

I will say from my very limited experience in GRB that there should possibly be some changes made to improve the GRB experience. Some spawn protections. Better SPAA. I’d like to see a time limit as to when CAS is allowed to be activated and join the battle. Would be nice playing what is titled as a ground mode for at least 5 to 10 minutes before CAS arrives.
Getting taken out by a KA50 within the first minute and a half isn’t great fun.

I’d like for Gaijin to find some compromise for GRB mode that the majority of the players would find acceptable.

i got my merkava and d4mn at its br its pretty survivable worth the grind

plus its got buttcheeks too

fields of poland and pragdesh are the only maps at high BRs that i like currently wish they could expand on that especially pragdesh its beautiful (idk if thats how you spell it)

Yeah those are good maps. Im partial to

  • Tunisia (especially the big version)
  • Sands of Sinai
  • Second battle of El Alamein (at least some of the configurations)

I wish we had more map bans.

Edit; Just realised, I really like Desert maps :D

The fun thing to me is, I’m not on the forum to complain like some folks come here for. I’m all for change as long as it makes sense. I’m actually working out a system to balance planes/ordnance out some for ground rb. See here: Finding a Solution - CAS
I haven’t got any feedback honestly. I put this same post in here and it got steamrolled by the arguments. I just hope if I do the numbers work for it and make it hard to say no then they will implement it.

I think Schindibee unlisted it:

Which might be why you arent getting any feedback for it

I’ve messaged Stona about it. It just got labeled as a CAS thread seemingly without them actually reading it for clarity. If it doesn’t get seen there I’ll post it in every thread lol.

haha, I’d advice against that. Maybe rebrand it and remake it to something like

Aircraft Spawn point overhaul discussion. Completely eliminate “CAS” from the thread

I’ll handle it in a few then.

same here since they’re rotated more with the larger maps

Yea, I can’t even make a thread now, probably because that post was hidden.

Interesting. I think there are at least some differences for certain bombs. I know the regular gbu cost less than the upgraded one. But I thought I remembered the gbus costing the same as walleyes.
