let’s be honest here.

90% of all planes is flown by people who just been killed, so they are kinda pissed and just want revenge, so they fly in a straight line with tunnelvision, fairly easy to shoot down

The last 10% plays it cool and are either hugging the ground or waiting until the right time, these guys and gals often get kills.

for example, An alpha jet with rockets can do serious damage, even in uptiers.

Just take your time to approach

Most cas planes at this tier are subsonic, have dumb or simple maclos ordinance, no form of optics or track pods, no ccip, no rwr and no countermeasures.

i know. isnt it wonderful?

@Pangolin_Fan

because SPAA is almost always played by the worst players in a match, and CAS is almost always played by the best players.

Do you have any kind of proof for supporting your theory

Or Just want to throwing insult to SPAA users?(which will makes no positive efforts for discussion)

I think you need to tone down your aggression a bit or deraililng show will happen later eventually. :/

You can always assume that whenever anyone claims “x is always played by bad players/good players” that they don’t have evidence to support their assertion.

The most likely spread of CAS / SPAA skill is along a bell curve as most things tend to be.

i play Japan 9.0 right now, and the amount of clowns in Gepards, xm246, type 87 and what not, who are using the AAs as a cheap TD for later to get bombed in their second spawn (if they respawn at all) is bloody staggering, so yes, there are a metric ton of bad SPAA players out there.

[DiamondCraftLP]

I’m saying CAS is literally the most braindead easy role in the game (and even more so when you get guided munitions and ballistic computers).

This issue is that CAS is also boring and so the only people who play CAS are:

• Cap rushers with 1 or 2 scouts (90% of CAS are awful at actual tank battles)
• People using them as simple way to revenge bomb (uh-oh … toxic)
• Players that don’t know how do dodge, or flare even

I’ve played SPAA, and I’ve seen people play SPAA. There’s a massive difference between bad and average SPAA players, but you don’t wanna admit that most SPAA players suck cuz it hurts your pride.

I’m not just hurling insults at SPAA players (unlike how CAS haters will take every opportunity possible to jurl insults at any1 who disagrees with them)

I’m just pointing out an observation I made, long before I even started defending CAS, and this observation still holds true today with constant confirmation.

[Sternlos]

The same goes for CAS players, and if anything saying most spaa players suck must be some admission there is skill involed.

[Pangolin_Fan]

I never said that there’s no skill, I’m just saying that it’s the easiest and most braindead class in Warthunder

Took out my Simp.Chapparal earlier, spent 90% of the game on my phone, didn’t move at all, was barely paying attention, and still got 4 kills which I didn’t even need to aim for since the missile did all the work, and I was never at risk of dying, and I didn’t even need to look for the enemies cause one of our teammates discovered [T], [6], and [1] on his keyboard.

You played 5 games in the last 24 hours with 7 kills. Seeing as you just admitted 4 of those kills were from 1 game (unless I misread something there), that leaves the other 4 games with only 3 kills.

Idk that isn’t overly impressive besides the single cherry picked game.

[Pangolin_Fan]

Yep, you’re right. Most games at 9.3 get one or two (maybe 3 if you’re really lucky) plane spawns per team. The 4 kill game was a perfect demonstrator of why. 9.3 SPAA is simply too overpowered for CAS to be worth it, so it’s rare for som1 to actually bother spawning it.

The fact that a single 70sp SPAA, being played by som1 who’s garbage at the game, can shut down 4 aircraft with no way of them fighting back is honestly quite dumb.

A subjective and questionable “experience”.

Looking at your stats, you do not really play higher BRs, much less in a way that would enable you to gauge the ability of other players. You also don’t play SPAA, and if you do you primarily use them to engage ground targets.

[Pangolin_Fan]

Just because I’m not good doesn’t mean I’m blind. Ingame skill doesn’t equate to my ability to gauge whether one players is better than another.

That’s just a very sad argument on your end tbh.

You can’t seriously be surprised that people were reporting you.

@Pangolin_Fan

The reason you see so many plane below 8.0 is because SPAA is almost always played by the worst players in a match, and CAS is almost always played by the best players

Oh you are so humble. And funny too!
