So that’s amazing. At least one thing forces the other hemisphere of the brain to engage, and prioritize targets. Let them think about whether to fire a missile at a drone or save it for a more dangerous target.
If a drone is scouting your whole team is probably more dangerous than 99% of CAS.

for someone talking in such way about SPAA, you sure do bad in any AA that isnt Pantsir, lmao.
There seems to be disconnect between your claims and reality.

ok so everything is fine then ?
Since the drone exploit i prefer to engage drone even if there is little reward, as it help prevents CAS from spawning in the first place

Im using planes to counter planes. So I don’t have to cry every time that “Russian planes outrange every AA”
Scouting doesn’t reduce the cost of CAS until the tank is destroyed. But the more missiles you fire at the drones, the less they will fire at me. So ok, shoot more at the drones
Sorry but the new SPAA were meant to clear the skies of any non-ground players.

- “Yeah SPAA is OP and all it has to do is to click once to kill a plane”
- except my stats with SPAAs dont allign with that statement
- nor do i use SPAA because i use planes (despite my service record clearly showing that i do use SPAA)
sorry but something does not add up chief.

Iris T yes
Saying I use planes against planes doesn’t mean I don’t use AA against helicopters or dont use at all.
Unlike most TO fans, I use most of the military equipment the game gives me. I don’t limit myself to just tanks.
Sit down, 2
still, just as with pangolin fan, stats - global or yours - dont allign with statement that AAs are OP.
ill admit, i have more important things to do than to keep track of several forum threads, so just to clarify and keep this discussion somewhat focused - what SPAAs you consider OP?
It’s too early to look at the statistics for the new AA.
By the way, I never said that spaa is op. You translated my words here in a way that is beneficial to you. I said that IRIS T is so stupidly made that all you have to do is open a new interface and click the mouse in the corner where the target list is. All your work. And the system does everything for you. And it all costs 80sp
And yes, the IRIS T is OP against lower-rank aircraft (11.3, 11.), and its br needs to be raised to top aviation level, which is 13.0. Is there anything else you need from me?
for the new AA yes, but theres enough data for other systems AND all current top tier CAS.
Im not going to dig into this further, but
you clearly talked about other AA systems too. coupled with the fact that most of your criticism was aimed at the low SP cost of AAs when compared to SP cost of CAS (which is universal for ALL AAs across the BRs). it is easy to assume that your comments were aimed at AAs as a whole.
higher BR CAS is also OP when compared to lower BR AAs. Problem of uptiers and downtiers is not unique to 11.X CAS planes nor SLM.
unless we get general decompression, no. there are simply way too many nuances regarding lineups and individual 11.X CAS planes and helicopters (not all of them are equall) to just shove one system way above the rest.
but can’t they add to land vehicles that have a machine gun on the turret what is in naval battles the ability to fire autonomously (if enabled since you can deactivate or activate it) the machine gun at air targets that get too close so that at least I can concentrate on the battle while I have a little help to not stay there looking at the sky every second?
Arent scouting drones free? It’s part of the light tank equipment.

gaijin hasnt said drone scouting is currently a exploit. and light tanks at top tier do not have mbt adjacent firepower its less then half on average. and lastly like i said before there arent many top tier light tanks to actually play per nation and even then unless you have a spike missles at best your a tank with no armor but crappy pen for top tier.
like i said before 3 times hence. No one likes the parts of this game that are complete counters with no room for skill on the lesser end. for example people were rightfully upset about the su 34 cas missles outranging almost all anti air. There was still room for skill by manually locking it but it was such a small window it honestly wasnt fair. And now we have flipped the roles which hasn’t solved the problem just made the victims of last update the new abusers and vice versa.
to clarify im talking about top tier only.
No no, you don’t get it, the Victims of the Last Update didn’t become the Abusers. They became the cleansers of anything that flies. And that is honestly, 100% fine by me. SPAA aren’t supposed to be fair, and as long as top tier CAS doesn’t require any semblance of skill to drop guided munitions, neither should top tier SPAA. And I am going to be very honest with you, I am playing Ground RB to play tanks. I have a plane in my lineup to counter CAS, and I play Air RB to play planes and grind out air trees. I have absolutely zero sympathy for CAS players and Drone Players, and I am not at all displeased that those who want to ruin the fun for 90% of the other players in the match are having their exploits and fun ruined. Yes, good Drone Pilots can decide a game by giving unparalleled info gathering. Information is key, but it is absolutely stupid that if I want to shoot a Drone down I have to use my Stormer AD or my Strela to do it because nothing else in the British lineup can actually deal with Drones.

still, scouting drones are free, do not cost any SP
And combat drones can’t be spawned as first vehicle
Drones don’t cost SP
And you’ve still not made a coherent argument for why drones should be protected from SPAA or SPAA should be artificially handicapped by limiting their options for first spawn.

AAs really can’t be too strong when it comes to wallhack-as-a-feature scout drones.
