How player skill with SPAA effects the CAS problem

Game Discussion Realistic Battle

A class based around a gameplay with less action doesn’t mean it’s OP.

If i pull that reasoning to its limits, let’s imagine you can play supply trucks in game : they would just require driving while mostly away from the battlefield, which you consider “braindead”. Would they be OP ? i’ll let you answer that yourself.

8.7 to 9.7 is basically the only place where CAS is somewhat balanced (and 1.0-2.0 too i would argue)

in between 2.0 and 8.7, CAS is quite strong, but not completely broken as you still need time to go to the battlefield, you can get shot down on the way and you have to aim your bomb drops

over 9.0 it just gets worse and worse, from mavericks to GBUs to AS-30Ls, ending with AASMs and the disgusting KH38

You better tell me how to counter the KH-38MT on ADATS? Hide behind houses with the radar turned off while your team is being destroyed? Is this the role of SPAA?

  1. use smoke
  2. stand next to destroyed tank
  3. don’t waste time playing spaa in the first place

The 1980s radar SPAA should be moved up so they’re not fighting 1940-50s planes, all SPAA which doubles up as a TD should have increased spawn cost, and SAMs should have their ammo boxes removed.

254

I really disagree. I think the gun based SPAA need a buff to their accuracy, even the radar based stuff should be honestly onpar with the Sidam 25 for accuracy. Especially stuff like the Gepard. It feels way too inaccurate…

If they are not going to add a ground vehicles only mode, players who want to play tanks have to continue to put up with CAS players, it’s like entertaining them without taking anything in return, but CAS need tanks to fill their cheap dopamine, tank players only gives and CAS players only take, that’s the problem. So ground mode better focus on ground, you lucky that they didn’t make SPAA “fully auto” just like irl counter part lol

It is no like Ground RB was recently the most popular mode meaning ground units are much more popular ;)

Good news they announce new spaa for Sweden and China.

258

Sweden won’t be able to do much to top tier air, and china probably is going to team up with russia.

259

Tbh ground only gamemode is long overdue.

That’s goofy. Radar SPAA players already dont need to aim, why would they need an ahistorical accuracy buff?

Aaaand here it is. The I don’t wanna play CAS so others shouldn’t be allowed to cope.

261

What is the historical tracking accuracy for systems like that? The current modeling doesn’t feel accurate, but I could be wrong. Do you have sources regarding the accuracy of systems like the Gepard?

262

Two nations get new spaa to counter the growin CAS danger.

263

And one of them won’t have enough range to do their job

264

Sweden don’t have decent spaa unless Gaijin decide to give them Patriot system but how to put the radar seperate into battle is for discussion again.

265

Yeah, a terrible Swedish SPAA and a Chinese ADATS. At least the Chinese ADATS will be good, the Swedish thing is a Type 81

266

The Swedish spaa is small and with bushes it can still be hidden from CAS and the launching system is the same like Tor which make it usefull to fire from urban area without getting caught in the open area.

267

Have you played the Tor or HQ? Nothing says amazing SPAA like having your missile being cold at close range, and having the most obvious and slow missile in the entire game. At least the OTOMATIC can kinda deal with close targets.

268

I don’t have reach the top Chinese tier yet but it depend how you play the spaa is not like playing the Pantsir. You compare cannon vs missiles are totall different style.
