Why cant we have 6v6, 8v8 at least in 12.3+ for air rb

While grinding on dev server for last couple of days where battles are mostly 6v6 to 8v8 in Air RB for me was pure enjoyment to play, yes sometimes you wouldn’t play against players but against bots (which is yet another selfish move from gaijin to increase the grind by reducing bot/player count even on dev server), but when you get queued against players its really nice, in one battle I’ve had 3 dogfights at top tier, those are basically non existant on live server unless you get lucky.
I understand that there are many people that like chaotic gameplay 16v16 and 12v12 are giving right now, but for people like me that are not incentivised to grind and just want to experience top tier gameplay as it should be, why can’t we get separate gamemode for at least 12.3+ jets.

6v6 is too low, especially with the current max 4 vehicles for the top BR limit. It means that each individual plane has a greater effect on the match, which means stock/lower BR planes will put their team at a massive disadvantage.

12v12 or maybe 10v10 is fine.

Default should be changed to 12 V 12. With optional matchmaking for 8v8 and 16 v 16 like it is currently for 12 V 12. I think its the fairest way to do it and everyone would be happy

I am personally fine with that, even tho I think stock vehicles are at much higer disadvantage right now in this format with lacking chaff, and some jets having not nearly enough cm’s do defend against fox 3 spams like mig 29’s or f16a’s which see 13.7 quite often. It doesn’t need to be 6v6 as on dev server there also were 7v7, 8v8 matchups but 6v6 were much more common.

with the F15, Rafale and Eurofighter all being capable of carrying 6 Fox 3 missiles this isn’t a good idea, you can get one sweaty tryhard wiping an entire team instantly

the multi kill bonus must be buffed too then.

Thats why players would be forced to use some form of tactic, such as using terrain as cover as that worked for me against F-15’s, learning how to defend in BVR, such matches would result in skill gap being narrowed to some extent. And try replacing sweaty tryhard with experienced player, this is not CoD nor CS, in WT you are either dumb, experienced or something in the middle like me.

cant make tactics and coordinate with the brainlets that play top tier mate

But you can, if you read the game and see what other players are doing, your decision is being coordinated through other players actions. Something tells me you dont play top tier air much… Or not just top tier, air rb in general.

Not too often, only to spade planes but enough to know how to handle the situations. I prefer 5.3-8.0 GRB because of the issues with how top tier is

Can’t wait to see someone posts “mUh 16v16 Is MoRe ReALIsTiC” with ridiculous reasons in this post lmfao

It would be easier to dodge them if there weren’t 16 of those per side.
