Actually, it’s less realistic. Appearing in the air makes sense cause it would be calling in air support from another sector.
Spawning from airfield so close to the battlefield is very unrealistic, and taking off in bad weather is even more unrealistic.
The funny part is that you can’t even blame it on ADHD. My friend group is almost entirely composed of folk with ADHD or ASD or AuDHD and guess what my favourite human loves doing?
Driving a car around in Pacific Drive without any action. Or trucking in Elite Dangerous.
… Entire friend group is obsessed with Outer Wild and forced me to play it.
It’s not ADHD that causes aversion to ‘lack of action’. It’s something else.
Look at the Battle of Moscow or Stalingrad - aircraft regularly took off from less than 100 kilometers from the frontline.
Or even the pacific theatre where you’d be looking at at most 250 km radius deployments around carriers unless ferrying or other concessions.
100 or 250 km? That’s nothing compared to the <10km airfields.
Yes, GRB airfields should be pushed back at least to 15 km at prop BRs and more at higher technology levels.
And you should take off from the airfield.
I’m glad we finally found something to agree on!
You’re right, if there is bad weather, CAS (and planes in general) cannot be flying
Actually they would be flying. As Movran pointed out, they would simply call in CAS from other sectors. Thank you for proving my point.
I’m glad we can agree that airspawn is more realistic (:
It is not.
Phasing into reality is not realistic in any form.
Now, if airspawn occured at the very edge of the map where you’d get turned around for heavy bombers flying at high altitude? Maybe it could be conceded, like how Finnish Pilots on Il2 handle bomber and cargo spawns.
Nope, bad weather = no CAS. I like that idea.
Well that’s unrealistic, but keep living your fantasy 😊
I agree. Tanks phasing into reality, and planes randomly popping up on airfields is not realistic.
I don’t really see the point of shrinking the map to put the edge at airspawn.
Many aircraft can still operate and strike targets in weather
Cool, I still like my idea: bad weather = no CAS. It will make the game fun.
Well, it’s a goofy idea, so 👍
Would give us freedom at WW2 brackets tho.
Goody idea for who? Sorry CAS boy that you can’t spam Kh-38s from spawn and then hide at airfield anymore.
I agree, Kh-38 should be removed.
Good, for right now, we would like TO mode so we don’t see:
Kh-38s, Hammers, AGM 65s, 12,000 pound bombs, 3,000 pounders from the Pe-8, actually… any bombs, rockets, or missiles at any and all BRs.
I have an even better idea. Just remove the Kh-38
TO mode sounds better. I would like to grind my tanks without being nuked by some weirdo in the air on GROUND BATTLES, just because I hurt his ego and took him out. I don’t mind Combined Arms mode, but I (and many, many, MANY others) would like an alternative to combined arms: Tanks Only mode.
Well then, I recommend not playing Warthunder.
No, I’m going to play War Thunder, and advocate for change. I want this game to be better.
