I have noticed this since about a month ago but its gotten absolutely deciduous. There have been so many times I have gotten 7-8 kills in either my Gripen, SU-30, Eurofighter or Rafale and I end up with 400-500 SP after. And I am not talking about kill multi vehicle SPAA end ending up with virtually nothing to show for it, Im talking about LEO’s, Abrams and T80’s. What is this nonsense.

ok then get 1 cap and 1 assist with PT-76B, spawn a Yak-9K, and laugh at getting a kill before spawning a plane

Cas has always given lower sp compared to ground vehicles.
Not a big issue imo.

That’s because a lot of players play ground battles to play tanks, they don’t want people to keep jumping into the CAS just to ruins it for people who wants to play ground vehicles. Cancer needs to be removed from ground battles.

I disagree with the sentiment that GRB should be purely tanks as I tend to main SPAA a lot. However, I do believe that they shouldn’t get the same amount of score. Score is generally distributed based off of how easy it is to kill a target/accomplish something. Kill a higher tier target, get more score, kill a lower tier target, get less score. However, at top tier, CAS is less about skill and moreso luck. Anyone can do a pop up and spam out ordinance against a target whose position is highly predictable, especially after this updates ESM additions showing locations of SPAA. Beyond this, if there is no SPAA up, you can simply fly high, then rain down all your ordinance, racking up to 10 kills from simple point and click behavior. This does not deserve the same score as getting 10 kills in a tank. CAS should not be able to spawn a backup CAS just because they got enough kills; it should be a 1 and done thing.
People can argue that SPAA requires even less skill, and for the multi-system sams it often also boils down to clicking on whatever pops up on your radar. However, SPAA players aren’t getting repeatable high kill streaks inflating their total score each match, and they rely on CAS players making a mistake, whilst if played optimally, CAS does not need SPAA to make any mistakes → especially on some of these maps.
This is intentional balance. Air kills give more SP, ground kills give more rewards. This is also probably why SPAA rewards are so cheap - you get basically one totally free CAS spawn with SP to spare for every air kill
I personally don’t care much about the points received per kills, my gameplay already ruins by CAS spammers so even you make a CAS kill with tanks that earns you 500 points each still you can barely play tanks due to CAS spam so no point. It’s like you make $10,000 a day but the thing is you can’t spend the money so no point bro
That is why I started playing Flakpanzer 341 mainly as it can deal with anything it faces (especially when someone flying the air can’t really play the game which is most of the time)
decided to do CAS in GRB to get the Foxy Few decal.
Behold:
- Spawn M18 Hellcat
- Capture B/C/A point
- Die without doing anything else to a random HEATFS that grazes my hull
- spawn a F4U-4B armed with 2x1000 lbers, excellent dogfight performance and excellent guns.
S k i l l f u l l g a m e p l a y. Truly.
