CAS, open tops, and capture points

Since I had the Negative GE bug my stats haven’t moved up or down in any way despite playing hundreds of games. They dropped suddenly from 58% to 36% in the top 3 placement stat for example. Im not sure how accurate stats are anymore.

Im not sure they ever were for some.My stats have not changed in 3 years from what I can see and I also have to get the exact amount to gain a medal as well.

I’m not talking about overall stats.

When someone is talking about vehicle ‘x’ You suspect that he should at least have some experience with it right?

It is just too comon that people who call some vehicles OP haven’t used it or are just straight up bad in it.

Not to mention that when someone is saying that ‘a’ is effective against ‘b’, his own stats contradict that statement, not to mention the replays.

I get you ,yes absolutely spot on.Typical with premiums that are criticized by people who don’t even own them.

I almost wonder if you guys are just sock puppeting each other, and many times you guys truely are just chiming on each other, making assertions commonly about how Gaijin won’t do things…

It’s rather funny to see as it just seems echoey…

Who would have guessed that people who actually play the game for the team and do it well have similar understanding of the game.

For me open-tops suffer truely in this game, especially against the air as even reserve aircraft can destroy them without them being able to do anything about it. I understand the point of @Vamilad who got upset about not being contributed the “cap” as he was trying to get away from aircraft attacking him. But it requires some kind of the understanding of the game some lack ;).

I do utterly despise the xp-55. It is a twig and impossible to hit unless you are shooting from its six or at ideal convergence range.

Irl that thing had massive issues with stalls yet in game it turns just fine with a hayabusha.

I would like you to be credited for your time spent while on a capture zone if it is successfully captured, yes.

Your argument is rather silly when this is already a mechanic ingame, but only if you die. Why do you have to die to be given rewards?

The best thing I ever did was put that jackass Flying Doctor on ignore so I can’t see his self obsessed, poisonous diatribe any more.Somebody suggested I put AlvisWisla on ignore but Alvis just has a differing opinion to me on things which is fine ,he is never nasty.We can all get angry and confused on here but that guy is just vile.I even tried to extend the olive branch but he has too many “Issues”.He keeps firing his venom as I know he is replying but I cant see it.

The who issue with what Vamilad says about taking point in any open vehicles is again another reason for a no CAS version of GRB.
We could all stay on CAP,fortify and wait for the enemy to come and retake it.we could build a defensive line around it and battles would then focus more on the mid map rather than everybody rushing forward to the enemy spawn and camp it to death,which they do to avoid the expected incoming CAS as soon as a CAP changes colour.

The end camp spawn rush might be a thing of the past.Also with no CAS there is a way back into the game for a losing team as opposed to being CAS bound upon respawn.

Most cannot aim in their first strafe. It’s often a specific angle and direction to pull that off and even then all it takes is 3 wrong moves for them to crash and 1 wrong move for you to die.

lmao

The only thing that would be nice is if we could place a tarp on top or cover the open-top vehicles. Like you could irl. Wouldn’t provide any real protection but it would make it slightly more difficult to engage. When you’re in the air, not by much though. Would lower the chances of being strafed though.

Tarp really does make people forget they’re fighting open tops.

I don’t think I’ve had anyone ever try to overpressure my avenger when I played it despite it being basically a worse hellcat in all but raw penetration.

As always though, you comment about people lacking, and being inferior to your opinion…

And that is where your true issue lays, because every time you have to make mention of that to make your stance more superior, and you deny anyone elses because you see them as inferior.

That’s the true sign of elitism and ignorance.

Sorry to disappoint You but I don’t see people as less inferior in any way.

What I care about on game forum is game. If one makes comment about the game, what I care about is how he does in the game as opinion of most players is based solely on their experience in game. If someone does badly in game his opinions are going to be based on him doing badly. There is no winner in a discussion, what it is about are just facts about how things are in the game. If I just wanted to vent or talk about what I feel things are, I would’t be using the game forum.

If You can’t understand a simple thing like that, I can’t really help You.

Nice to see and there is a group of like minded people on here who dont take it personally when somebody disagrees. I remember not being a flyer and complaining about CAS without really using it. How wrong and ignorant I was and I have no problem admitting it because I have no ego to shatter.I am here to learn really and discussion is the best way.I have no problem admitting I’m wrong or being converted by others on here with an opposing view if they talk sense.

I think the fact you trade in stats and facts does upset the emotional crowd on here, especially as they cant throw your statistics back in your face.
You have excellent stats for the game if I remember correctly and maybe if people spent more time asking you for advice on how to play the game rather than assuming you are just being smug they too might learn something.

Your little flying trick proved to very useful when I finally go it right ,so thanks for that.

@Pacifica just incase this gets a little to wild. Odd that this is getting hidden.

It’s actually concerning how blatant these insinuations are… How can he be saying it’s nothing to do with superiority when every time he enters, he’s always saying about how ‘bad’ ‘someone’ is…

(Nope)

If you leave the point then that’s your own fault

French AuF1 is nice Anti-Air in my 7.7 Br range, probably will do better within its Br 7.0. No different to the Japanese Type 99 SPH. problem is my crew skills still low and currently stock thus making it hard on me to down air with slow Horizontal/Vertical Drive. So a lot of them got away doing CAS before I got them…But it pays off with a nice satisfaction. May just swap it to a crew with with better crew skills just to be able to aim quicker for the CAS.

I did this while my team in the air ignored other planes and my team in SPAA also ignored CAS…lol

EDIT: Did it again :D
