Cant use it in its IRL role given how much bombers have been nerfed and generally messed with so may as well use it against tanks…

Feels like they brought back that hitscan detection for bombs again, If a bomb lands behind a little rubble its like a 50/50 of the bomb not even registering a hit.
3 tanks on the capture zone and it didn’t register anything.
That same match a ME-264 landed a bomb like 5 meters away from me and a dead tank ate the blast and didn’t even effect me at all, Later in a different match i had a bomb land under me in a Tiger and it exploded with 0 damage but a second bomb killed me a few minutes later.

Damn great job Gaijin, you took a perfectly fine feature and ruin it.
If a FAB 3000 IRL can do this why not ingame with even bigger bombs

I mean IRL these bombs were more power than pre-nerf.
They would shake the whole map if it was realistic, I’m pretty sure the FAB-5000 the Pe-8 that dropped it (which was at like 5000m)
The MOAB would be crazy to see ingame, I’m pretty sure it overpressures anything within 1 mile radius. Basically kills everything on the map
Regarding the nerf it sucks. I honestly find it funny when I die to a FAB-5000 or 12000 lber.
I was recently in a open-top AA and I saw Lancaster come in, I ended up shooting him down after he dropped them bomb. I accepted my fate, but was surprised as hell when I literally saw the bomb land and explode, and my tank and crew were perfectly fine. I was honestly kind of mad because I felt the dude deserved the kill.
Also I mean IRL, my crew’s heads would have turned into a popped balloon filled with ketchup
Everyone you mean you? Because I sure as hell wasn’t, though I shot a few of these bombs down with my fighters and it was fun to listen to screetching from bomber user whose plane was already burning in the background.
Problem is, maps are cramped and buildings and rocks provided 0 cover. As a result, on city maps Pe-8 could clear half of a team and basically win the game with 1 bomb nobody could really prevent.

Anti air doesn’t exist anymore I guess
Good luck hitting that Pe-8 before he drops the bomb. You have to snipe him from over 3km away basically.
Especially on small chokepoint maps these big bombs were toxic. Ground players deserve a game, too. Bombers spawn too high, you will always make it to the drop zone and then there always had been the chance to blow up most of the enemy team. It was a bit too idiotic.

Thats more Map design then bombers though. (And the fact Ground players will just press W to the nearest choke point.)
la sc y sb 2500 tambien estan arruinadas. Gracias gaijin, era lo que faltaba para terminar de destruir los bombarderos.
