Did you even read what you wrote? You’re trying to say that because one person would be recorded incorrectly on a statistic, that means the entire thing, all the data, should just be thrown out.
You do realize that that ^ ^ ^ is why you’re considered an embarrassment by pretty much everyone, right?
Some BRs and some nations depend so much on CAS that they just lose the round due to a lack of ground units, and them getting shot down and losing all their spawn points. Allied teams will never win a game again in low-mid BRs if they’re able to get in another CAS. Gaijin is simply trying to save Allied teams from themselves.
The only map with a safe spot against CAS is the tunnel in Frozen Pass.
You know why? Because while you can stay behind a rock/building, it turn out that plane can do something special.
They can fly
Bet you didn’t know that huh?
And because plane can fly, they can go around the obstacle and strafe you. And they can do even better. They can go above and dive on you, someone a handful of map feature can protect you against.
And as @ULQ_LOVER pointed, some map have barely if any hard cover. On Sinai bombs will blow up the building you are trying to hide behind.
Same with 38th parallel, and it’s a closed map, there is nowhere you can hide where a plane can’t spot you.
American desert has more building, but said building are next to the objectives, and said building are 1-2 stories max. Any plane passing above will spot you.
And the list continues, Ash river, Ardenes, Carpatians, eastern europe, Alamein, European Province, ect.
The only map I can think of with enough high building to hide reliably from CAS might be Sun City. Or Stalingrad with building you can enter.
From you own admission, you are below average at this game, maybe consider that you are simply bad at spotting? Everyone has weaknesses, nothing to be ashamed of.
Well that’s what you’re doing wrong, youre just hiding in a tunnel doing nothing instead of actually fighting.
Apparently everyone else is bad as spotting cause I can sit my 8.8cm Flakbussy next to a building and be completed uneffected by the one-sided ARB max going on overhead (one-sided in the enemy’s favor).
And I killed a spitfire in a 190 in a dogfight. Thus 190 > Spitfire.
Anecdotal evidence is the worse thing you can pull when talking about WT. It’s not because you encountered blind players that it justify anything you said.
I was AFK on Ardene once toward the friendly side of the corner behind the barn in G17
You are so stuck in your “CAS lover” vs “CAS hater” schema that you didn’t even think that I could say that from the perspective of CAS. When I play CAS I have a unobstructed view of the map. I can look behind every nook and crany.
“Someone might be behind that rock” I just fly above and look.
“Someone may hide next to this building” same I just fly above and look.
And if you dare open fire with you main gun, a gust of smoke tells me where you are.
The only place you might be where you won’t be spotted is somewhere you will not be looking, but those place are the place where you can’t influence the game.
This is why I said the only way to not be seen by CAS is do nothing, because this is the reality. Any decent CAS player has a perfect view of the map.
It’s no wonder why plane (and satellite/drones nowadays) are used in recon mission, because there is almost nowhere you can hide.
If you make a general claim, then a singular counter-example is sufficient to contradict it. You respond by refining your claim to account for the counter-example or concede that your claim has limited scope.
Here’s a definition nabbed from a textbook for your satisfaction:
