Changes to the SP cost of CAS in GRB

Oh I paid for 8 slots as well. I don’t have any heli and only the rafale for top tier though. One empty slot. Mostly use them for my favourite 7.7 and 7.0 lineups.

I might have to. When I tried I did het constant uptiers. Need to check the GRB BRs for the french jets.

It probably also depends on the played nation, i only did it with Isreal since i bring a 13.0 with all others.

I dont think the nation really matters. I believe it’s just what people in the queue are taking into battle. If there is nobody with less than 13.0 you will just get sucked into 13.0.

The biggest issue for me is none of the good jets are 12.0 in ground BR so I either have an actual 12.0 lineup with the F1C or I have higher than 12.0

No way does this guy think he’s good at Warthunder because he doesn’t use CAS 😂

That is exactly what it means to be good at War Thunder Ground forces. Not using planes lmao

World’s most humble CAS hater

I take great pride in making CAS players cry. Had an Su-25 complain to me when I shot him down with my OSA AK. Made my day.

Define intended.
Planes in GRB look like an afterthought, as you aren’t even forced to bring them in the first place. All of the objectives are also ground based.

You are asking CAS main to play tanks to fight spaa is like J out of they planes and play ground again.

Planes are part of ground since the beginning. And if you read the description of the mode, it’s clear it’s intended to use planes as well, if you wish.

Russia main are so goofy XD. I once had an Su-25 complain that I shot him down with my M1A1 Aim’s proxy.

The devs intend for planes to bomb tanks, hence CAS is intended.

the devs are implementing the new A2G ordnance SP system in the first place, clearly showing that they dont want that much bombing in ground battles.

Yes, an afterthought and something completely optional from the start.

Looks like Gaijin is perfectly fine with games where aircraft don’t even spawn at all. Not forcing spawns of the “intended” vehicle type tells you everything.

How is it an afterthought ? Planes were in WT before tanks and when they implemented tanks they decided to make it combined arms, thats not an afterthought.

Yes, you are free to play what you want.

It’s pretty much an afterthought as all objectives are ground based and aren’t accessible to aircraft.

Imagine creating a mode where one vehicle type isn’t even mandatory and can’t interact with objectives. It literally screams that planes were an afterthought in GRB.

Try queuing for GRB without a tank in your lineup.
Try that but without aircraft and tell me what happens.

Planes can’t even be spawned first, which is yet another argument to them being just an optional thing.

Also, if what you say is true, please find me a game of GRB where no tank has been spawned.

That’s not how an “afterthought” works.

That’s thought out poorly at most.

You could queue for GSB without tanks and spawn first.

They fixed that, as further support for the argument.

You can still first-spawn planes, which given SB controls and the annoyance of setting up VR and HOTAS, I can kinda understand why.

You can try to turn this around however you want. Planes are in GRB since day 1.
Clearly they are intended to be used in this mode. Which the description also states.

What kind of “argument” is “you can’t first spawn them” ?
There is still something called balance.

You can’t just thought it out poorly and make one vehicle type have literally no objective interaction. This is pretty much like forgetting to include a sink in the bathroom or make a house without doors. You simply don’t do such silly mistakes and keep it like that for a decade.
