I have just been watching the kill feed in ground and Air, Air-RB, Ground-RB everyone is just crashing into the ground rather than getting hit by the Fox-3, I have gone back into the replays and watched to see why, and about 80% are players choiseing to hit the ground, Ground also has the problem of SPAA just J’ing out to avoid dying to your ATGM or BOMBS, just to respawn in a new one and slapping you, It a bit of a joke.
It’s not a bit of a joke, it’s a evolved brain moment,
Is more rewarding getting a 8 minutes crew lock than dying to the enemy.
U sure that they intentionally crashed or is it just failed attempt to multipath, notching?
Sometimes in sim when I am about to kill someone who has been fighting me they just eject lmao
no kill credit for me i guess
Nah, definitely a subsection of the playerbase who believe that someone actually getting the kill, is needing to be denied for the spite factor.
It’s actually concerning that it’s continuing to be a thing.
Yup, just had the drop on some lamo while diving from above. Dude just ramrods the dirt immediately when he realizes.
As soon as I radar locked he jammed he sticks down.
I’ve seen more tanks do this when they’re being bombed than SPAA specifically doing it.
I understand why players would do it. Facing planes better than yours at the same BR, and other unfair stuff, really harms the gameplay.
I will admit that I have done it before when facing F-84Gs and P-51Hs. I did it because I felt like I had been cheated out of being able to fight back. Why should I give someone a kill when they did nothing to deserve it other than have an airspawn/undertiered plane.
I haven’t done it in a long time, but I wanted to offer some perspective. It’s basically a combination of salty player+unfair game.
If an SPAA does it, they’re an idiot for being unable to shoot down an aircraft. If a tank does it, I understand because they are incapable of fighting back in any way. Being a free kill to someone who didn’t outplay you sucks.
Thing is, that’s the cards you were dealt, and we all run the risk of those same cards being played to us… The only thing you’re cheating is another player out of the kill.
The fact that when I’ve spoken up about the fact of players doing it, it’s constantly met with a group of players deeming them to ‘deserve’ it, for playing against them and bettering them… The angle of those who mention this junk, and take pride on them bettering those they cannot better in the game, makes a septic group who do stupid things.
Not that you’re anywhere near that subset, but they’d happily take your reasoning to further their true entitlement to justify their bad actions. Like those who pick and choose maps and matches, deciding that it’s unfair on them to be put in such a situation.
When they are flying flat then just lawn dart at 30-50m off the ground it is easy to tell from someone trying to avoid the missiles.
Youd think the extra score you get for player deaths might help but apparently not.
There is no rewards for crashing,…
And you loose 8 min before trying back to gain some RP/SL with the time needed to lock and fire.
That’s a dummy-dumb brain moment.
If anyone does the same, rates of rewards will be shrinking for any players.
Crashing into the ground doesn’t even save KD on your profile.
All it is to be crashing on the ground on purpose to avoid getting killed, is ANTI-PLAY/GAME.
Which should be REPORTED, and players doing 3 crash on purpose and in a row, should be BANNED immediately for 3 months straight on 1st strike, (then 6 months, then a year, then definetly).
People unwilling to die from anyone are shameless, but they’re the reason why the game is harder, and on this reason, should get banned for long periods of times, for them to learn.
(@Smin1080p_WT : we already faced that thing one time, please create official news around that to avoid a new spam of crash… threathen the community to get RP punishments of 50.000RP each time they crash on purpose or something,… because it is an annoying thing for every players)
So you’re saying they choose to crew lock instead as well?
I doubt that really. I get annoyed enough being crew locked for accidentally clipping a tree as it is let alone out of spite.
I really think people are just way worse at flying than people think.
Maneuver kills would solve most of the issues.
Give kill credit to closest player within 2 km who was around you for the longest. Alternatively give kill credit to the owner of a missile that is tracking you if you crash (if multiple, credit closest).
Actual bans seem too harsh given how easy it is to compress some planes at lower brs and also g-loc yourself from being able to pull up in time.
Also sim. I have put my.planes into way too many flatspins learning.
About Fox-3 problem → 2km is not going to solve anything,… most of those stupid guys are crashing at the moment you lock on them(not even firing).
Which means that with TWS radar mode, they drop altitude at the moment the internal Radar of the missile locks (16km average)
I can understand for SIM, and i was effectively speaking of AIR RB.
This is a good thing, actually.
Guh-
The amount of false bans from this would be mindboggling holy fuck.
a report should be revised by competent people,…
What are you on? Jokes a part that’s exaggerated getting punished by crashing in two different ways.
By the way, RP punishment is basically nothing, how are going to get negative RP? Just don’t get rewarded and that’s is what usually happens, you just don’t get Silver Lions and RP if you just die and did nothing in a match,
This thing of report and strikes with a ban of 3 months for crashing is also crazy, you’re, again being exaggerated or annoyed with people with worse vehicle than yours,
And no it’s not a dumb move, it’s more rewarding seeing the enemy putting effort on destroying your vehicle but getting nothing at the end than just dying and he getting something because he’s using something better.
If this is a problem, suggest removing leave the vehicle option and force low altitude to the ground instructor controls.
we’re not Talking of J-ing Out there,… But people SLAMMING TO THE GROUND ON PURPOSE
have some comprehension of the subject please.
