Weather bans?

Problem for you to take home and solve for the teacher to grade.

You are flying an aircraft in a 1vs1 to 4 vs 4 setting.

You are the only plane left alive on your side and it will be over 5-6 minutes for people to respawn and return.

There’s only 1 enemy plane left on the objective as well.

To gain capture points, and thus tickets to win the match and score to get paid, you must be the only plane within the 8x8x5 kilometer cuboid

This 8x8x5 km cuboid has a 8x8x2 km slice that completely blocks visibility except for about 100 meters if that.

You have no radar.

Your opponent is sitting in this 8x8x2 km slice and parked their plane into a permanent bank and circle they can sit in until they run out of fuel. They intend to do this to deny your team from gaining the objective even if he fails to get it himself.

How do you find this guy without RADAR?

look mate, you are boring me, and frankly a waste of time.
I wish you all the best and I genuinely hope that you can overcome the unsurmountable problem of clouds. . . . .
I believe in you.

Inability to provide an answer is admission of absence of answer.

*your inability to find a solution and blame others for not giving one to you.

You made a claim, you provide the evidence required to support that claim.

deal with it yourself, I do not have to prove anything.

Either deal with your own shortcomings (which we all have) or dont play.

I believe you have the ability to overcome the demonic and overwhelming force of clouds, you can do it!

Brother, you have a monthly KpB of 0.62. You can’t possibly think you are winning over anyone in this. It is a ridiculous take to be arguing for the atrocious weather conditions. I don’t need to be forced to fly my day fighters (Bf 109, F-86 for example) in a thunderstorm at dusk where the visibility is next to null. Ground controlled interception isn’t part of Air RB, and funny enough, fighting in this kind of weather ISN’T REALISTIC!

It isn’t fun or good for gameplay either! The only reasons i could think of for this being beneficial to a player is if they want good screenshots or if you’re zombing, which i assume you do based on very poor air combat stats, or you just aren’t good.

Forward facing radar takes care of the ground in front

This is such a massive problem, that you can’t compare it to a vehicle.

Ok so the weather is the problem since you haven’t provided a solution

community used to be cool rather than a bunch of cry babies.

You still have not answered how you, the almighty, would solve the issue.

Imagine publishing a paper claiming X but completely forgetting the methods, results and discussions sections and the supplementary information.

The only one being a crybaby on this topic is you.

Most players who complain about clouds at least have a good reason, but in your case you have not provided any evidence to support your statement.

You also completely forget that somehow people complained about the night battles where the spotting system was far worse.

Also people did turn up postprocessing brightness so they could see and had no shame doing it.

Literally 3 year old kid’s moves.

It does really suck when both airflieds are fully covered by thick clouds and you cant see the runway until it is less than 500m from you.

They just need to chill on the clouds. I feel like they did it in response to cas. Cover the maps in heavy clouds and cas cant do well. But i guess the settings carry over to air modes too.

A bit off. It seems like it would be more like going on the news and saying “I can drive perfectly with a blindfold” and when asked to do it, you respond “I don’t have to prove it. You just suck at driving.”

Mysterious valley (what is called) with heavy /low altitude clouds is instant leave for me…sorry. And it has resulted in at least 20 deaths in my Mirage F.1C-200 that i play the last 2 weeks.
I understand that they make environmental effects to give you some difficulty and i’m ok with that, but especially in this map is getting on my nerves…

At the end of the day, if you come to fly and have an issue with there being a bloody sky in which you fly in and in which have clouds, play tetris or someshit.
Honestly this is utterly ridiculous.

I have no issues with clouds in general, but I do have issues with incredibly thick cloud cover, that doesn’t make the game better.

Clouds should not be covering the airfields, and they should not cover a large majority of a map.

I just lost a battle, can you implement a feature where I only fight guys i can beat?
Can I have an update where I always have the best vehicle every match (but also apply it to every other member - or alternatively just me)
Can I have a match where I have the best aircraft and clear skies so that the people with shitter aircraft stand no chance or no means to exploit my weakness?

I think matches should just have a random chance of turning your monitor off
