Why can we not research helicopters with planes?

just the SPAA players would probably like a word

like that’ll be a massacre

62

Or spend entire matches trying to drive to the Frontline and the match ending with nothing to show for it.

63

that depends on how you integrate them

rn you can’t really, but if done properly it could be fun

you know those little battlefields? you could spawn the SPAA players there or even in a reserved part of the map

maybe even within each other’s reach

64

Why can’t I research a supermodel girlfriend for myself by browsing adult websites?

65

Hmm. I still don’t see any scenario where they could have any impact on the match or do anything to get themselves RP and SL.

66

could try to shoot down planes

67

Try being the emphasized word, here.

Mainly because your research is curtailed by the company, they do not want you to progress quickly, as if you are not frustrated you will not spend any money.
It is a delicate balancing game Gaijin plays, to annoy you enough to spend cash but not enough so you quit, that is why we have all the constant updates to balance, very little to do with gameplay and the players more to do with the companies bottom line.

Which is less justifiable these days with a far greater player base than 10 years ago that just having a normal, playable game that isn’t designed around frustration would be more than profitable.

wait, can you use helicopters in ground assault arcade?

71

Last I played it, which was well over a year ago, yes. But AI SPAA spawns everywhere and will clap you.

72

Maybe I’ll try that out… I’ve never played that mode because I don’t drive tanks (the controls aren’t even mapped - I went through and deleted all the ground controls a long time ago.

73

Because it would massively speed up the process, something that gaijin obviously doesn’t want

Ideally I’d like to research every vehicle in the game while using the prime Kfir Canard and it’s 6x 1000lb bomb loadout since it generated over 25k rp per match but we can’t have everything

I mean that’s the obvious answer, would be nice of Gaijin would admit to it at least.
