Which genius decided to buff osa and nerf air to air scores

Seriously , who even thinks you know what the players need in this event? , even more buffed annoying osa which quite literally shoots you down at 10 meters , but use osa in grb it can barely shoot a drone. Morever for us air mains this event is now unplayable it takes you 40 years to get decent score and for that you need so many air kills which now have been nerfed , thanks for making this unplayable -_-

Air-to-air score needed a nerf, not many people even care to go destroy the buk/hawk sites, and just spawn in the middle for a TDM festival.

The state of the OSA its absurd, last match just saw osa intercepting an AIM-7 and an AIM-9L continuously.

When the devs can’t at the very least implement LOS checks, you get very broken spaas. Both the rolands and OSAs are very good because of this.

dude how else are you supposed to grind an AIR TO AIR event with sead involved? 10 kills barely give you 1.7k score…

The whole point of the event was to test ARM missiles alongside a bunch of other things.

Basically everyone defaulting to Air RB with respawns defeated the entire purpose of the event when it should’ve been a combined effort to stopping the enemy team from killing air defence + destroying theirs.

I welcome the new score changes. Should’ve been this way from the beginning since it’s literally harder to kill those ground targets than actual players.

No it did not, it was perfectly fine. The point of the event should be to make A2G more viable, not make A2A impossible.

this ^^ , plus if you actually try to sead all of your missiles get intercepted and you get shot down by osa make it make sense

Nuclear Thunder —> nukes? —> nuke airfields, depots and convoys???

Should be easier to get more points dropping nukes now.

brochacho , try getting to any of the deopts or spaa , osa will get you before you are able to get close to it , and no flying low does not help at all

Average player: “Hey! I get more points getting air kills than ground kills despite the ridiculous amount of effort involved! Let’s just keep doing air kills first then get a nuke to nuke stuff!

You:

Toss bomb?

I do not even need to try bc I been doing it these days.

toss the nuke from 7kms away? make it make sense dude

Its a fact air to air was way more profitable, thats why you see full fighters at the start of the game, just a minority actually cares to ground pound. Also getting air kills are so easy, especially with the mig29, f4s, f18, etc.

Dude if you ever played the event, you will see every match people nuking ground ai targets, especially when the 5kt nuke gets unlocked. and yet they do not die, even if you died, the score of nuking the target will give you enough sp to spawn again nuke (like 6 targets destroyed i think).

Also dodging rolands its easy.

AI* was buffed, not any specific SPAA.

It did not, people have better things to do than to grind 6+ hours on this event every 2 days, I think it was good before the nerf and even the low levels were able to complete it in a reasonable time.

Air score needed a slight nerf but nowhere near 50%. It was like 17 kills for a Strat Bomber now’s it’s double that. Realistically it should be around 20 especially with the airfield changes.

If they wanted people to play CAS and test out ARM missiles, they shouldn’t have made the AA so oppressive. The Air kill score nerf is horrendous, and everyone is still going to just do pvp because of how crazy the AA is.

Average Gaijin move. Do nothing about the AA problem and nerf rewards.
