CAS rarely does enough on its own to push the enemy back to spawn. A tank does more than a plane could, and even when there is no SPAA, they can fight back against aircraft. Especially at high BRs, where IFVs and such are commonly found, with IRST, proxy fuze HE, etc.
I have played countless matches in which I destroyed multiple enemies capturing points with CAS, just to lose because my team was passive. As an experienced player, I find it apparent that spawning in a tank is often more effective than spawning CAS in changing the match outcome. CAS is expected to and should be able to get more kills than tanks, not only because their SP cost is several times higher, but also because they lack the unique power that ground vehicles have.
One CAS can kill two verhicles or multiple verhicles in single run while it seems not enough to push back to spawn it causing enough problem to force the op team spawn spaa or quit the battle.
It now seems that all you really need in this game is a SPAA!!! Tanks or Planes get stripped by those using them. Pretty certain no point playing any orther tank in the game!! Forget skill, aiming - nope.! Scatter spray and kill.!!!
Nearly all brs are completely OP and amazingly accurate nowadays!! heck even at 4.3br, hit and ripped apart by an M16 a mile away… M42 same thing, Shocking… orrrrrr is that just happening to me I wonder.! RnG at play as per usual I wonder???
Seems other players fly around untouched, the second I use a plane,… ripped to pieces withing 5 mintues. regardlessly!!!
Yup!!! 100% my AA shots do nothing!! Funny how that works!!!
