The SU34 Is EXTREMELY OP In Ground RB

While still being the most uptier proof stuff in this game period, welcome to light tanks. playing smart and not run into everything headless when facing stuff with enough armor frontally is sort of mandatory not only in light tanks.
But killing 4 tanks from the back and sides faster than any other vehilce class in this game while also having the ability to move faster than most tanks to flank or to sit behind a hill being completely untouchable is not usable at top tier?
Then put a giant “I’m here shoot me” Marker on the head of anything on ground for 30 seconds even if u only saw a glimpse of them for a splitsecond. or scouted them by sound through 3 buildings. while having a scout drone to do the same but worse. or at least have the ability to defend or engage vs air threats as basically the only non aa vehicle class.

Good that exactly this spawnrushing rat tank class doesnt reduce sp costs of cas. its comical at this point. wonder why the fastest nukes are achieved by these pisspoor tanks for ages now

BTW HSTVL is 11.7, so is the CV90120, one of the best tanks in game

Lmao then what the yapper ? Don’t have problem but have to list those thing to say “they have no other role to fulfill beside spawning CAS”. Smartest CAS user, really call other people “cas whiner” when there are barely any thread about this problem

CAS’s base spawn cost should be increased, and ordinance cost completely recalculated. The A-10A’s AGM-65Ds are extremely overpriced, especially when the F-5E offers better Mavericks on a better airframe at a lower spawncost.

It’s also quite goofy that 52 50kg bombs on a crappy bomber is the same cost as 4 mavericks on an F-5E.

Agreed but who needs an spaa when you have a f16 for aa xdd

Not true, they could add about five different SLAMRAAM (25km) and SLAMRAAM-ER (40km) vehicles (some with 15-16km AIM-9X’s), XM44 EFOGM (15km), MIM-23 (45-50km), or an early model MIM-104F (which may or may not have only a 40km range before a better motor was added).

Balance & gameplay of high tier grb in general is fk’d.

  • Feels trash to get killed by cas from ranges u cant contest them
  • feels trash as cas when u have to pay sometimes 1000+ sp to spawn in but then get killed by an 80sp AA that just spawned in and cant be fought against due to spawn protection
  • feels trash when you spawn in an aircraft only to get shot down without any reasonable chance to defend yourself by an enemy who was literally loitering by your AF without consequence
  • SP cost of high tier aircraft loadouts are generally nonsensical and also feel trash
  • hell sometimes u can even be shot while your literally on your AF in some maps which, yes also feels trash

list can go on and on - lots of work needs to be done for high tier ground rb for both ground and aircraft to make it properly enjoyable again. For the su34 side of things, honestly i dont consider it as oppressive as some people make it out to be due to the current nature of the mode where it is very easily delt with by any f15, f16 or grippen which are constantly up and can be brought out faster than a fully kitted duck. The AA performance gap is real but its very much countered by the air-to-air capability and multipurpose efficiency of nato vs red side stuff - sure it kinda makes it air rb 2.0 but thats the mode we play in nowdays so that factor needs to be considered when talking about balance

Remove scouting reducing plane spawn cost.

Remove SP gains from capping the FIRST point of the game.

Make MM at top tier all mixed.

Problem solved.

Even forgot the wiesel 1a2. the rat of rats. sneak into forward position, scout half the enemy team, shoot them without exposing your hull or even when they are in full cover behind a hill with tow2bs if you feel confident. now even more usable with ammo crates that only light tanks/spgs get. (not usable in top tier-dont recommend. /s)

Since glide bomb, when Stormshadow?

Surely theres enough data now to prove how detrimental the SU34 + KH38 combo is? i regularly see 5 multi kills without any counter?

there should have been enough feedback from the Su-25SM3 as to how detrimental Kh-38s were for the game

People who say it’s annoying when others complain are just the ones pretending not to care. Their own country isn’t affected by anything, yet they can say whatever they want. Brainless people can type like that too. Pfft.

Just played a game on Breslau where me on Imprv. Chapp, 2 other SPAAs and 2 MBTs all got wiped out at spawn, at the same time, from an SU34’s laser guided bombs as it flew well outside of any of our lockon ranges. Absolutely asinine
