It absolutely is the problem if it is the only vehicle with such capabilty and no equal or counter. As stated before, it is the only SPAA with the ability to immediately see just-spawned air craft.
Moving all CAS to runway takeoffs is a band aid fix since again, we can see that its the only SPAA with a 50km range. If you cannot add something equal to it, buff everything else to the same level, then leaving it in can’t be the solution. It should not have come to the game before everyone else got something comparable. And Gaijin has stated numerous times there isnt much else.
Here we see the problem with the mindset you all have. You focus on the pantsir and not the real issue.
But ill humor your train of thought.
So the Pantsir needs to go because of the gap between it and the 2nd best SPAA (Ito)
But if we do that… now the Ito has an equally massive gap between it an the ADATS, so we should remove that next… but wait Japan and Israel dont have SACLOS SPAA so we should just bring everyone down to IR SPAA level.
See the issue? You dont remove the pantsir, you instead ask for others to be pulled up to your level. Removing the pantsir benefits air players and only hurts ground players more.
As for the “imbalance” argument. There is far worse instances of imbalance among nations than the Pantsir, yet you guys either choose to ignore those-
Again, we have this. Its called Sim Battles. At this point, and I’m not 100% against it, just have Arcade and Sim Battles. Just change the name to Realistic and get rid of the faux-realistic mode.
Exactly. As I’ve said before; it is one of the most discussed vehicles here. And yet either community managers aren’t doing their job or Gaijin doesn’t seem to have balance as a priority.
They’ve already said that the Swedish tree will become a Scandinavian tree and Italy has Spanish vehicles already I believe, Portugal too, and with what Smin said about India in the British tree that means that Spain and Portugal are technically already Italian sub trees
