Why do CAS users incur ZERO penalty for dying in GAB

Game Discussion Arcade Battle

If I had to choose a single thing in Ground Arcade that could easily make the game at least a little better it would be a change whereby CAS users incur the same repair and loss of a life penalty that tank users do. There’s not much more bloody annoying that having some window-licker put his aircraft into a vertical death-dive and release a volley of rockets just before he lawn darts into the ground, AND he’s credited with a kill with ZERO penalty to him. So you get penalized while the absolute skill-less lobotomy patient gets away scott free.

This is nothing but pure pandering to the CAS brigade on Gaijin’s part. There is no reason a CAS user shouldn’t have to use at least some care to avoid dying the same way tank users do, or be penalised as a result of carelessness.

Why? They gonna have to leave the aircraft in a given time anyway, so what’s the point of not doing a death dive after u run outta bombs or rockets? Would just make the game more boring as people can’t do anything in their plane but are forced to stay in it

erm… There is at least ONE reason. And its called “you can join in as many air battles in GA as you make ground kills”. Meaning that you can fly MUCH MORE than 3 times. Because this is designed as a killstreak for good enough players to use. So its not related to “respawn count” of the player :/

The penalty is the spawn points they just loss.
