Then why don’t you play Ground SB?
CAS is a lot less amateur-friendly there and tank gameplay is nearly the same.

Tell me more about how You don’t play SB
No they aren’t, per kill maybe. But in ARB people shoot back at you lol. In GRB you shoot fish in a barrel. Getting half the reward per fish but them being in a barrel is a great tradeoff.
(Also, some people are just either bad at flying or very insecure and can’t handle being shot back at or losing regardless of what the rewards are.)

Cause it has CAS mains. I’m not sure what your reasoning is behind “less AMATEUR-friendly” when obviously SB is almost completely non-amateurs.
Also, the fact you can’t tell whether a Sherman is German, Italian, Swedish, American, etc. is kind of a non starter too. Or a T34. Or a Pz IV…

I only don’t play it because of the queue times and the limited time I have on my hands. Gameplaywise it is my favorite mode, but when I have 30 minutes to play, I don’t want to spend 10 of those in the queue.
If You would play then You would have known that SB is full of CAS mains
The last time I tried it, only top tier, which is a complete mess in any gamemode, was truly full of them.
They all use different camo and not using decals to show the correct nationality is the players’ fault.
Try B.R. where You are able to spawn PE-8 or Lancaster and have airspawn
Giving bombers an airspawn and therefore a headstart is a gamedesign flaw that could quickly be fixed by forcing runway spawns.
Welcome to SB
I would love to get back into SB, if it wasn’t for the lack of time. A year ago I played a bit of 5.X Sweden in VR and it was really fun. At that time I didn’t notice overly active CAS.
Not to mention the point disparity where 2 air kills give You more points than 8 ground kills
I have two reasons I do it.
1: I feel like I can better use strike aircraft and guided ordinance. What would I do with them in ARB? Do like 10% to a base? Hit an ai that is traveling the exact same path for the 1000th time? It feels more fun/rewarding in GRB where I have to look for targets and I have to worry about spaa.
2: It is much easier for me to play fighters in GRB because the enemy planes are tunnel visioned.
Honest question. Why is the pe8 and lancaster always the go to example? I know they have a huge bomb but they are really big and slow. In most cases, my team has avoided get destroyed by them by not bunching up in one spot. Of course not all teams are smart and they get those lucky multi-kills.
I feel like the top tier planes would be better examples to use. If you want a lower br example, maybe the yak 3p?

These at least sounds like nice guys, other would have told me I was playing a wrong game and ask me to play this wot game I didn’t even heard of, one of them said plane is the foundation aka first class citizen, he added that gaijin add tanks (2nd class citizen) for planes to farm rp lol

NO I simply said that instead of bitching about CAS I manned up and got into it myself because it was obviously half the game to anybody but a fool.
It’s quite clear and we have already discussed idiots trying to tell me what I meant like I don’t know what I mean.Most clowns that moan about something on WT dont have the thing they are bitching about.
The whole Idea of not using a powerful weapon that will get you kills is frankly ridiculous especially on a forum where everybody thinks they can win an argument by stats shaming.

Oh that’s why I pretty often see people just J-ing out at the start of the game with their Reserve vehicles lmao.
That thing should be heavily sanctioned if you ask me.
They could make bailing out within the first 5 minutes cost a bunch of SP. 🤷
Gaijin will say that heavy bombing caused more losses to ground armour than anything else in WW2.Hide behind history as and when it suits while ignoring it in game.
Many would argue CAS historically wasn’t as effective as some make out.Then others would say Heavy Bombing i s not CAS,True but Gaijin would say “We never use the term CAS” and so it goes on.
Bottom line has to be 1. CAS/No CAS option.Even I can take a rest from CAS and the game could be fun and offer a different perspective.
2.The bitching Non flyers learn to fly and take the best from the situation and possibly discover the joys of CAS.I don’t see that as negative.
3 Those who claim to fly and still think CAS is OP enjoy the billions of kills they will get by using their invulnerable CAS and the likes of me deal with it as we do.

Add a no CAS option like they have done with night battles.
Problem solved.
Everyone is happy.
