you have to fully rely on a teammate to protect you from something you cant defend yourself against.
the game has random matchmaking, there is no communication, you dont know who youre playing with and nobody has an incentive to defend you from CAS.
relying on a random teammate to save you will NEVER work, you know it doesnt work. there isnt a game out there where it works to put 100% trust into your team, letalone a single teammate.
i dont care that war thunder is a “team” game, this gameplay dynamic isnt viable, never was and never will be (unless gaijin adds a highly competitive gamemode where players care about teamwork).
it should always be possible for a solo player to outskill the enemy team, but instead the enemy can jump CAS and destroy you effortlessly, no logic or skill involved, and no counterplay.
So there is nothing changing your mind then? If that’s the case, it’s really pointless to even discuss this. You only look at it as 1 vs 1, tank vs CAS with no presence of any team or SPAA. Yeaaa, ok. Nothing I show will convince you I guess. SPAA will always effect the CAS problem, if you don’t believe it then GL.
What is the point of balance if someone from a team can always take care of it?
This is where „team” argument leads.
Beliving otherwise and applying „team” Logic to only one situation is delusional and in bad faith as it can be used to shut any discussion regarding balance.
No, stop it… If you can’t retract your constant beration over the simple fact that if an SPAA is on the field, no matter how trash you deem them to be, it’s better than NOT having one, I’m not goddamn interested in your dictation of topics and this ‘deem anything worthy’ nonsense.
As per usual, there is no dicussion, it’s only when you start being worried that someone will step in that you bring ANYTHING_ to the table…
thanks for informing me about this, i wasnt aware until now.
i am keen to begin using my teammates, as i havent done so far.
a valid argument would definitely change my mind, im open to opinions from all players, ground and CAS alike
yes, because thats exactly how the gameplay is. its literally how games play out, you rely on a SPAA teammate and they dont save you, or usually they dont exist to begin with.
i never said SPAA doesnt affect the CAS problem
its not a strawman, its a response to a common argument that supporters of CAS use, which is “GRB was made for mixed combat, which means CAS is an integral part of balance”.
thats why saying “maus could be at 1.0, because CAS balances it out” makes sense (or doesnt make sense, because the argument is bad)
According to this logic, the Maus will have to be made expensive like cas planes , but the cas planes themselves will have to be made 70sp like spaa. It actually sounds pretty funny, it would be a good idea for an event.
Only thing team based in this game is the fact you’re put in the match with dozen of randoms that might or might not be willing to help. Or they literally can’t even if they want to because they don’t have the tools to do so and what’s worse, the game didn’t make sure they have those tools before queuing up.
