I have just got the su-25k to grind out ussr and im getting very annoyed that fighters are bombing and taking all the bases, which is not what fighters do the last time I checked, I’m hoping at some point that gaijin will nerf the sl and rp rewards when fighters do bomb bases or just move sub sonic strike aircraft down to 9.3.

Its not worth getting annoyed at them. They’re just trying to grind in the exact same easy low effort way you are.
Just take gunpods & missiles and play as a fighter yourself if it bugs you that much. Or alternatively, play sim where there are much more bases.
Planes like A10A / Su25 used to be a lower BR, but in no surprise to anyone, all aspect missiles like 9L / R60M vs flareless korean era jets was a balancing disaster, so they went up.
Let’s not repeat that

Or gaijin can bring back the faster respawn bases so that the bomber planes can actually bomb, lol.

Bring GP and rockets then throw on a thunderer wager and kill howitzers/spaa, getting a bunch of those is far easier and more profitable than bombing
maybe rather than reducing reward for base bombing, we should ask gaijin to increase reward for destroying player controlled plane instead, increase it to at least the same as 1 base bombed per plane destroyed, preferably more, so hopefully more fighter will be a fighter rather than bomber

It is both systemic and behavioral problem. One risk vs reward is skewed towards PvE where low risk yield similar rewards to high risk PvP actions. So instead of nerfing PvE aspect PvP rewards should be buffed.
Then obviously people will optimize fun out of the game and go for the most optimal and easiest way to grind which is bombing bases.
Apart from the most common ground attack fighters are those who have the ability to take bombs with a full air to air loadout, or near enough… lol.
I think Gaijin should reward 1rp for each action you do in a game. You bomb a base, you get 1rp, you get a kill 1rp, you land your plane 1rp. Oh and keep the current requirements of 1000000rp to research vehicles.
As if the grind isn’t hard enough already…why do you want to trip others, why not ask for an rp boost for kills?
Because is easier fight vs players than vs the system.
400k rp for a plane is totally fine, but a fighter ( actually multirole aircraft ) bombing bases is absolutely wrong
PS : actually wasn’t nerfed recently ?

I wonder what would be the next easiest target if bases are no longer profitable.
Spoiler: it’s you

Struggling to do anything in your new SU25K is just perfectly hilarious…where was this annoyance and “nerf RP/SL” energy before? 😭

That’s foul 😭
No.
Also Su-25K is one of the best turnfighters at its BR.
I think that there needs to be more incentive for combat over base bombing for fighters.
I think fighters just need a rp boost for kills.
Also, fighters around 9.3 are mostly multi role, so there is nothing against bombing in them.

2 kills = +50% rp, 3 = 75% and 4 = 100%
yes.
God damn, that’s depressing
