Now that the first of my posts on the subject of freedom of expression have been deleted, I have decided to switch to passive mode … the whole thing seems to me to be more of a kind of occupational therapy so that the players don’t get any other ideas.
That’s a genuine player issue, which needs to be sorted as it leads to this movement where people are beligerant rather than looking for solutions and actual guidance.
I think at the end of the day the CAS debate boils down to people (rightfully) not wanting to grind another several hundred thousand research to get SPAA, I’ve noticed in my lineups where I have SPAA when I get killed by CAS I’m a lot less frustrated than in lineups I dont have any in. But like I said it’s not the player’s fault they don’t want to grind SPAA, it’s too inconvenient for them when they want the MBTs with the big guns that are actually fun not to mention the fact 90% of SPAA gameplay is sitting on your phone waiting for something to happen. And then when a plane finally does show up it dies in a dogfight or another friendly SPAA gets it lol.
To fix this, Gaijin should make SPAA a bit more accessible, maybe by treating them like drones where after you get a certain amount of SP you can spawn in a worse-for-the-BR-but-still-functional SPAA or something. I’m basically spitballing here, but my point is something CAN be done.
Finally unlocked all of Rank 4 tanks. Also can’t play without a SPAA in my line up, especially the Wirbelwind, love this SPAA for what it can do. I feel incomplete without a SPAA in my line up. I can go without planes though, no issues with not having a fighter or CAS.
When I die to Cas, I spawn in a plane and shoot them down. Then proceed to smoke his friendly tanks that were to lazy to grind aa or a plane. Then laugh
It’s really the players fault. I just spent the last time two weeks griding the British aa line I skipped.
nah I have to say this is a cope take, it is unrealistic to expect players to grind AIR for fighters like some people suggest to do but SPAA are both easy to grind for tank players and also…it’s really dumb to not grind SPAA then bitch about CAS
Yesterday my Chieftain Mk10 suffers, I racked up some deaths and iirc it was around 15 deaths, 11 times I was killed by CAS and 4 times I was killed by enemy tank lol because I camp hull down, kill some guys then they come back with a jet. I should have learn how to dodge the bombs bro
to be fair, CAS is literally the answer (sometimes the only answer) to a tank doing what you describe (holding a “power position” defensively) That is not to say it’s not still very frustrating and also, it is usually not used that way.
It pissed me off to be honest, I just close the game and play something else after everybody decided to bring a sniper rifle and kill me from outside the boxing ring. I mean I was playing the vehicle strength and trying to preserve it as long as I could, because dying is bad, the reason the air filled with CAS is too many teammates who die and feed the enemies enough points to spawn CAS with the best loadout. Sometimes I don’t even know what’s the point of playing sniper and get punished for it bro.
