Teamkilling should be disabled in Air RB

Game Discussion Realistic Battle
,

Hello everyone!

I managed to race against a SU-22 to the base with my F-5A(G), but he shot a R-60MK at me while he failed to accurately land the bombs at all, causing no damage to the base.

Following the disabling of teamkilling on tank RB, I think it should follow suit for airplanes. You have a higher risk of unintentionally TKing your airplane teammates than against tank teammates.

But that’s not the main point of the topic; I have been intentionally teamkilled a few times this month already (I’m not talking about stray missiles hitting me).

The point is, there are lots of malicious players that are not afraid of 25K SL penalty, because making SL is easy (and that’s a good thing!).

It is extremely difficult for Gaijin to pick out who’s malicious and who’s not, due to report noise (many reports a day, and some are mistake reports/false accusations), so I think disabling TK would free up lots of manpower for other tasks.

At the meanwhile, I shall elaborate on my experience more: when it comes to intentional TKs, it happened the most with premium strike jets like Tornado and SU-22; I generally steer clear of them if I saw them.

Thus, I think, it would be a worthy discussions to be had, thank you so much, guys!

Well, people are going to justify this as, “you’re a fighter, you should be fighting” so, have fun.

I think teamkilling has a place in the game as a deterrent to shooting missiles close to your teammates, which lets gunfights happen more often.

However, I do agree that intentional and misclick teamkilling should be removed or reworked. Perhaps by increasing lock time and reducing missile damage to a crit instead of kill. Teamkilling with no enemies nearby also ought to make you leave the match, ensuring that there’s no incentive to teamkill to get a base.

Reduce base rewards, so the GRB players abusing ARB only to gain ressources, will be history.

pretty quick way to kill the mode for anything that isnt a meta fighter, the simple thing to do would be to simply reduce base rewards for fighter class aircraft and leave the rewards alone for Strike aircraft and bombers

Then you got the Chinese who don’t give a care in the world if you’re in a melee battle with someone and instead shoot a PL-12 into your dogfight, killing you

Why tf would you reduce base rewards over the board? That has 0 logic

its call air realistic not team death match, ground strike aircraft and bombers are realistic.

Ye I agree that’s a good idea

14

Yes? So what exactly is your point or argument lol

17

Wasn’t trying to argue

18

then what was the point of your reply

19

the F-5 is allowed to have bombs thats never a justification to teamkill

22

Well if the ONLY way for me in my bomber to get a base is to tk a FIGHTER, i find it justified.

Allegedly i do it when a mirage f1c is in front of me for example

23

i dont really think that helps your team win at all tho plus you lose sl for no reason you would be better served going for a new target or waiting for the base to respawn and saving the missile for an enemy plane.

24

Long argumentation about your points:
TL:TR I have more benefits from TKing then not to

Spoiler

I also don’t think it helps my team win when my fighters go into a worse position to get a base and bring less missiles

I get RP, i have more then enough sl

If you wait you die, it’s pretty simple. Also the bases only respawn once a player landed and took back off which does not happen that often.
Also you can’t really go to a new base when you have 8+ Premium fighters with bombs in your team every round

True but i think a base gives more RP then a air kill. A kill gives arround 500RP, a base 700

25

how the hell do you get outran by an F-5A in Su-22

26

he was the f5 but ye that’s super weird too lol
