Revised poll on CAS in Ground Battles, would you play a tank only mode?

people have been asking for this for literal years at this point, gaijin have always said no and that there wouldnt be a tank only mode as it maid certain tanks usless

No one would delete the current GRB so all tanks will have their uses, be it in one mode or another.
That was just a lame excuse from Gaijin as they’re too lazy to fix the core issues.

If TO ever comes to WT, it will be in spite of TO advocates’ efforts…not because of them.

It’s been nearly 10 years of asking (if we take Silkmonger as the first (he wasn’t)) but they don’t even seriously pursue or advocate for the ‘trigger queue’ idea for TO despite its merits…and then they wonder why it’s not in-game right now.

You can put forward an idea as to how they could try pitching the idea…and they say they ‘don’t wanna do all that’ work for their idea. To hear some tell it, there’s a grand conspiracy (like the Illuminati) preventing TO from happening…

I’m open to seeing TO on offer in WT and have tried to help the idea along…but with advocates like TO has, who needs opposition? SMH

Instead of Tank Only GRB… a compromise could be:
Tanks + Planes using full real controls / cockpit view only. **

** Disclaimer, I’m already playing GRB that way and it’s a lot of fun!

Isn’t that already a thing in SB? Tanks, get gun sight view, commander’s view (cam where the cupola is at) while planes get cockpit view.

I think who doesnt play CAS shouldnt vote, because they have no exp to tell anything

People who don’t play CAS absolutely have a vote, as they have an experience getting bombed as well as no motivation to play a game mode with CAS enabled should the alternative no-CAS option exist.

I’ve never used the 5.3 EBR, but it should totally get nerfed cuz I have experience dying to it.

Everybody get bombed, but you dont have idea of difficult to do CAS to know if its balanced or not

What do you think about spawn campers so? With CAS you can change the game, and kill that guys its impossible to kill sometimes

Well shows how OP CAS are, saw this heavy bomber flying towards us, I hit him a few times but it wasn’t enough, ran for cover, he drops a 5 ton bomb that landed in another suburb and it still killed me.

hy are these things even classed as CAS?

CAS? Difficult to use? What? Especially at the non Pantsir BRs, CAS is extremely easy to use.
You got the USA where a 3.7 Hellcat can drop a 2000lb bomb with relative impunity (Deleted four 6.7 german tanks like that in one go which let us push A cap on Attica),.

You have Britain where even as far as 6.7 a Wyvern is effective with three 1000lb bombs, high top speed and 1200 rounds of 20mm ammo allowing it to also effectively kill SPAA, if you don’t have a Wyvern then do not worry, the Tech tree Mk.24 Spitfire’s got you covered as it can also effectively fight CAS jets.

Germany gets the Ju-288C or the Do-335 or the 50mm armed Me.262, the Ju-288C can drop two 2500kg bombs which means on one pass it can clear a cap and on another it can clear a flank all while going 500/600km/h, the Do-335 has good 30mil cannons for striking targets, carries a 500kg bomb and is relatively devastating.

Russia gets a nice selection from the Pe-8, to the Yak-9K and Yak-9U, and the I-186/I-225 series as well, and for CAS jets you get the IL-28 and also the Su-11.

And those are just the four big tech trees. I didn’t even touch upon much for 8.0 and above. Its funny how people in the British tree don’t seem to use the Canberra’s much. They’re fast and carry a good bomb load, and you get two. The standard one with no guns but can delete teams by carrying two 4000lb bombs and is faster than most planes that can catch it, and the B Mk.6 with a 20mm gunpod, its now limited to 5x1000lb bombs but can now strafe low armoured targets with 2000rds of 20mm ammo. (My favourite CAS plane to use because it can also fight off other planes.)

As someone that flies both CAS and CAP, I call big piles of horse dung on the statement that CAS is hard to play, the only thing that’s hard to do is accurately drop a bomb but even that becomes second nature when you learn the timings.

Wtf, downtier CAS planes is so use to counter, what are you crying? Downtier everything is easy, and you dont need to understand too much

It’s far easier to play SPAA than to play CAS XD

I think you need to re-read, very slowly, and very carefully what I said lmao
I ain’t crying, you said CAS involved some form of skill/difficulty, I replied with my experience having used CAS planes in 5 nations. I don’t use top tier British CAS because Britain doesn’t have top tier CAS, its so bad it might as well not even exist in the tech tree, I use top tier fighters to hunt CAS down instead. Russia has the easiest top tier CAS in the game thanks to their fantasy Kh38MTs. So as someone who has experience with CAS, I commented.

TO is a simple and easy solution for many issues but Gaijin is too petty to implement it.

It’s not a solution for even a single issue.
