It’s 2v2, and this is top tier, so the other jets knew where you were about 5 minutes before you had any possibility of reaching the base and has already launched 2-3 fox-3s at you. Not only that, you screwed over your teammate by being a useless lawn mower bomber instead of playing the air to air game effectively making his battle a 1v2.
If they can find you with their radar, yes… within 5 minute no missile in war thunder can reach 300km
I’m sure AESA radars from 2020 will struggle
Dude, are you aware that 500 x 500 would basically be nearly the whole country of Spain?
Maybe? maybe not… Let say the Map is in Tibet. That guy can multipath all the way to the base, hiding in very tall mountains. Even if they spotted him 400 km away, the enemy would have at least 15 minutes to run. What your idea then?
Ye? I want big maps.
That would only lead to 20 minutes of plain straight line flight before joining the same inevitable furball we face now…
Nah. If we can add 5 airfields 100 km apart (Each pair will spawn in different airfield), then it will prevent the furball because people are just going to spam missiles that are never going to reach there… if they kept going they will ran out of fuel.
Here’s how that would go down:

Bigger maps would work a lot better if missiles actually took effort to notch/dodge, and it would make BVR more viable.
Right now, I can’t see more than 150 x 150 working for air rb.
Yes, but 2 planes spawn every 5 minutes, so when the next pair arrives, the 1st pair of planes will have to go back to base and refuel… It dosen’t have to be PVP. It can be bombing operation, like nuclear power plant, airbase, Naval port, Military base, convoy and more…
I’m not waiting 5-20 minutes to spawn in after having queued into a match to then fly for another 20 minutes before being able to see some action xD
Why not just… make teams smaller each match, instead of making teams effectively smaller each time by shoving two dozen players and force them to spawn in every 5 minutes or whatever…?
Nah, 50K RP and 200K SL will be worth it for 1 kill…
It feels boring with a few humans in the game.
I generally play to have a fun and engaging time… you could give me 1M RP and 1M SL per match and I still wouldn’t play like that, because… what do I want all that RP and SL for if it’s just not going to be or bring anything enjoyable?
There are more humans in a 12v12 match with the current maps than there would be spawning 2 vs 2 every 5 minutes on a Spain-sized match xD
Yeah, map density is too high, bigger maps and or smaller team sizes would help.
12v12 should be the default with optional 8v8 and 16v16 settings

You can increase it to 4v4 and the total number of people will be 32 per team. I enjoy flying longer in the sky instead of facing 30 Fox 3 immediately after spawn. Even with a lower player count (10v10), the number of missiles flying toward your face will not make a big difference in gaijin small maps.
How did you get top down data on my last RB EC match on Spain

I assume that would takes lot of rams, just like DCS and would be unplayable for legacy consoles.
