Something you seem not to understand, is that yes there isn’t many NATO CAS.
But russian CAS are OMNIPRESENT at 12.7-13.0. Every single top tier game I play against Russia, I have to fight at least 1 CAS (general trend : 3-4 russian CAS per game AT LEAST).
Of course NATO has less CAS at top tier, I think they just gave up the grind when they saw how little chance they had to win at top tier.
Anyway, the statement “Didn’t see much CAS.” at 12.7-13 GRB is just plain dishonesty
I personally would nerf spaa from 9.0 and above, like severe nerf
But also buff it a lot bellow 7.0
At high tier spaa is just complete bs and the only way spaa can fail to kill cas is because the cas just spammed all their ordenance, or the spaa made a mistake
At lower-tier you can just not stay near spaa and you will be mostly safe, aside from lucky shots, which gives you free reign over the map
Not in low-mid tiers with spaag. They are at disadvantage in many ways. Multiple CAS would quickly get rid of the spaag, then totally dominate the battle.
And you assume enough players would jump into the limited-role fighters. I have no intention of using fighters in RGB and I’m confident I’m not alone.
I mainly play top tier, CAS isn’t nearly as present as you say
Completely wrong and its just more “muh russian bias” slop, I don’t see a lot of russian CAS either
There really is no way to “balance” CAS specifically. I notice it boils down to what nations get matched together/against. Some nations are going to have CAS that is miles better than the competition. When WT matches the nations with extremely good CAS together, the other side will be steamrolled. SPAA effectiveness also depends on this matchmaking. For example, the Pantsir SM/SV is the best at its BR for intercepting munitions (where it primarily faces sub-mach munitions like the Maverick). Pair that with Mach 1+ munitions like the Kh-38MT and you have the best CAS and the best counter to that CAS on the same team. Like I said there really is no way to balance it perfectly, but adjusting matchmaking and analyzing what CAS and SPAA players do on each map would help.
CAS doesn’t destroy balance. It simply levels the playing field between weaker and stronger lineups.
Please point out B.Rs. You are talking about
He probably won’t be able to answer as it is about line-ups not one vehicle being at - 1 B.R. and needing a little brain
Bunch of lies.
Everyone can play 12.7-13.0 GRB and see by themselves Mi-28nms/su-30s are omnipresent, every 15 seconds in the game.
Cannot count how many “Air, XXX, YYYY meters” quotes I hear. I even know the said quote by heart.
(Btw I’m the one pointing out the CAS every time I see one, I would know.)
Stop spreading disinformation. CAS are MORE than omnipresent at top top tier
I play top tier, this doesn’t happen nearly as much as you say and you’d notice it too if you played AA
I play AA very often, I have a SAMP fully spaded in my 12.7 lineup
There is AT LEAST 1 Mi-28nm + 1 russian jet of some sort (mostly Su-30MK2 AMV because it’s premium) each game.
And I said AT LEAST, which is really never the case, because there is always more. Top top tier is flooded by CAS, especially in Russia side.
Of course, no CAS = no balance. Without stratosphere attack (which target can’t fight back and clearly is unbalanced and unfair) we can’t have balance.
And thats why all modern armies invest more in air assets than other ones because they want balanced battlefield and not to have upper hand against their enemies.
I want to see you spawn an aircraft with proper CAS loadout in 15 seconds
“Didnt reach that tier”
“Dont play cas”
“Don’t play Russia cause it’s toooooooo op”
Console aim assist is good for spaa players against CAS dropping bombs mid air and destroy them before hitting the ground.
Easy change to rebalance a bit at prop tiers: general lowering of the BRs of fighter aircraft with limited anti-ground armament.
We already see a lot of GRB/ARB BRs being set separately for higher tier jets. Some props have this too but it’s fairly limited. Fighters are easier to use than SPAA for a lot of players (and frankly they’re just more fun).
