Fighters bombing instead of doing their job

I personally think that gaijin should lower base rewards for fighters. Im flying my Su-22UM3K trying to research my modifications and MiG-23 who sacrifaces his R-24s to carry bombs and eats everything and then there is also the F-4S braindeads who now have the best SARH missile on the BR and still choose to bomb bases instead of fighting resulting in them getting smashed by some IR missile because they dont look behind themselves only at the base and then the battle is lost because what am I in the Su-22 supposed to do when all our fighters are dead.

First of all, thanks for starting a thread pointing out a systemic problem in this game.

Nothing is more infuriating than going to spade my dedicated bomber/attacker only for some premium Phantom schmuck, who doesn´t know any better than pressing spacebar, steal all the bases because he is 50 % faster than my plane. Not only are they stealing rewards from dedicated bombers, but they are also usually just wasted team slots.

I am generally against nerfing rewards, but enough is enough. People should not be able to get to top tier by pressing space bar 300 times. So a massive nerf for bombing with fighters should take place. I am talking something drastic, like 20 % reward only for bombing with a plane designated as fighter if you don´t have single player kill in RB at the end. Should also apply to ASB in a sense that you only get 20 % rewards for bombing, if +75% of your score came from bombing in a fighter.

I would make bomber aircraft base rewards higher and fighter base rewards lover at the same time and yeah the nerf for fighters should indeed be massive.
