CAS problem

Game Discussion Realistic Battle
2941

When I decide to NOT play Air Simulator Battles or other games - notice the emphasis: NOT play - I do so because I want to play a Tank whether it be a Sherman, a funny british piece of junk, a T-34/KV, a tiger/panther or maybe something more exotic.

If I cannot play those vehicles in peace fighting similar vehicles, what motivation do I have to stop playing my preferred air mode to be forced to fly planes in a mode I don’t find enjoyable (map too small, air spawns, shrot match duration, rapidly draining tickets, prefer cockpit view and stick & rudder controls for intrinsic flying fun). WW2 SPAA is pretty impotent against properly flown CAS, so only real option is CAP and I got a better mode to fly CAP.

Give me a mode where I can actually drive shermans and other stuff around without people telling me to spawn a plane and 75% of my complaints disappear.

Those remaining 25% will be pertaining to the awful maps and damage modelling.

The current GRB mode basically turns into people basically telling me to “go fly a plane in a worse game mode for flying planes in” after my big fat slow heavy tank gets bombed 3-5 minutes into a match (or strafed to death if it’s light enough while still being fairly slow and clumsy.) In that case, why play GRB? Might as well stick to ARB or ASB.

GSB is somewhat more promising due to the CAS skillfloor being significant but uhm…

Can’t play what I want whenever I want.

I’ve told you multiple times, and you keep refusing to accept it…

They have a few options, but a few of them revolve around thinking and taking preparation into account.

As you said, they can hide, they canm spawn SPAA, or hell, they can use a plane as you’ve mentioned in other areas.

Again not the ‘best’ solution, just the one you demand… You tout it as the best because that’s what you think is the best, but it’s just your side of the want.

That’s nothing at all to do with this.

This is a war game, so finding peace, in a game such as this is almost a misnomer.

This is another one of those things where your choice has come to play into it… It’s not the games fault you’re trying to avoid cost so much you’re spending days on autorepair.

… Do you even know what you’re looking at, or are you channeling the power of ChatGPT and inventing faux-facts that make fiction blush?

I have included the URL for a reason. If unfamiliar, you have the means to achieve enlightenment.

You still refuse to read:

You have quoted it and said later that player should use something else.

If it is not trolling then I don’t know what

Look stop being obtuse because I have you ignored for a reason…

Stop barricading yourselves into this mire of woe and misery about the planes as this leads to absolute chronic failures in discussion such as the entirity of this thread.

I’m not checking random URLs so you tell me what the heck this image is, because I feel it’s nothing related to this.

I’m starting to belive it is really ChatGPT, non premium version of it.

So.

If you knew what you were talking about, you’d recognize the image as being related to my statement on how “GSB is somewhat more promising due to the CAS skillfloor being significant but uhm…” that preceeded it.

This is context clue as to what the image is.

Now, beyond this context clue you would realize that GSB has fixed line ups that rotate approximately once every day.

Now, based on this knowledge of how the game works and preceeding context clue, you can look at the image telling me that to be able to play the British Comet I, I must wait for the 4_1 ground sim lineup available after 3 days or the 5_1 lineup which is available in 2 days (but includes Tiger II (P)s as enemies, so playing something like a comet may be a struggle).

There is zero relevance to waiting for autorepair speeds, hence my comparison of your post to that of ChatGPT’s hallucinations - not knowing what’s happening, you still insist upon speaking and inventing things that sound proper but are irrelevant to the conversation at hand.

Now, why did I say “GSB is somewhat more promising”?

Because at WW2 prop tier brackets, the skill-floor to fly aircraft and engage in CAS filters out most CAS players and the lack of markers from hits and scouting makes it difficult even for experienced pilots to casually gun strafe your team or drop bombs on you while you’re in a low-visibility environment.

But unfortunately, refer above: if I want to drive the Comet I, I must wait for a singular rotating day of the week which may coincide with weekdays where I am busy or just not in the mood and therefore it is not a viable alternative.

Furthermore, airfield take offs fix some of the inherent issues with CAS in GRB (airspawns interrupting dogfights, time to deploy weapons from spawning in). Unfortunately, you CAN spawn cas at minute 0 and this does contradict the airfield spawn’s advantages somewhat…

It’s also not perfect as CAS still exists and very good pilots can minimize the handicap that are sim controls for precise bomb drops and strafes.

So it’s actually not related to this at all… After all, that’s sim with it’s time specific presets.

Nothing to do with this.

As you seen from the response, I did read that, and I supplied another option that is there too.

I have given a RANGE of options, as the one you favour isn’t the only solution.

You say this sort of thing a lot.

You say this sort of thing a lot.

So yea, stop baricading and making whataboutisms to avoid the points raised.

You have many options, you just want your one alone and if ANYONE comes to put forth anything else, you dogpile, and gang up on people like nothing ever seen before.

Spam replies, drag arguments out, skoff and mock, berate and deride until they get ‘spammy’ and you can report them to make them face punishment.

The fact that so many think that I’m the one that flags their post is almost indicative of the true projection here… Everyone flags everything, that hides the statement, and drives people to assume that ‘Oh no, the CAS player is arguing again’ when that’s literally not what’s happening.

The only thing you’ve brought to this last quote ULQ is merely trying to pick out that I’ve offered a solution which you don’t like, and the rest of it is backhanded insults towards me…

“Did you not read? Are you incapable of understanding? Oh it’s definitely another thing here that we all use ChatGPT!!!”

This is all you’ve done for years…

(Edit - Stop flagging posts to stop the ‘conversation’ people…)

Spawning another vehicle while being in a tank is not an option and saying that someone should hide is only proving how unbalanced game is.

Not to mention team argument which again brings us to old „Why Maus is not 1.0 then if someone from an enemy team could kill it with a plane?”

Nope, it’s how you are wanting to rely on spawning that tank that leads you to the issue you have… You aren’t limited to just tanks.

That’s nothing to do with this.

This is where these threads drag us, round and round in circles, with made up scenarios by ULQ, making out that it’s so unbalanced, and unable to contest a plane, for the sake of making this ‘needed’ change.

It’s not needed, you just need to adapt to the playstyle that is needed, one which doesn’t just fixate on playing tanks and IGNORING the threat.

The biggest issue I have about all of this, is that you’ve been on my ass the entire time because I suggested to some sub rank 3 player, who hadn’t even used SPAA, to use SPAA, and keep at it.

You took offence at that in a how dare you sense, which you still carry today…

You gatekept the advice, mocked it like it wasx absolutely unfounded and they’re the one I’m sure who has posted this thread.

There are no problems, it’s a hefty side of players choosing to ignore.

We are talking about a situation when someone is already in a tank. If You want to discuss something else there is no reason to reply.

I have showed that I’m the one using the air and I can do it well.

I’m amazed that You still can’t understand it

2953

Again, you don’t have to spawn the tank, and you can think…

Stop gatekeeping for the sake of it.

You really don’t discuss anything, you try dictate and gatekeep constantly.

2954

The game would benefit greatly with a wider variety of game modes including mission types TO being a separate MM from GRB would be fine

But we are discussing a situation when someone is already in a tank.

Trying to have a proper discussion with You is like trying to play chess game with a bird.

Edit: really?

2956

Even if TO was added GRB would improve if they added a mechanic that let you “rtb” a vehicle so you can swap for a spaa or spg instead of abandoning it (maybe an area at spawn or even friendly capture points)

You’re dictating the terms of the scenario as you always do… They didn’t have to pick to spawn a tank, and that’s a flaw in thier choice.

Stop trying to insult me whilst deflecting the point that you make these scenarios so YOU can barricade yourself from discussion.

2958

That is a great idea, I have even proposed it many times but as long as TO is not added, no real solution will improve the gameplay for people who just want to play tanks

No plane game mode could be nice for helicopters, since helicopter are usually part of Armies/Marines and work closer with them
