Why does war thunder put bombers in non bomber games?

That person actually disagreed with me and was slightly rude lmao? It’s just that they actually finally answered what I was saying, unlike you. They didn’t really agree with me, they just got what I was saying - which wasn’t hard.

Lets get data:
From the description, it is the “Domination” type that is on maps of Hurtgen , Lagoda and Vietnam. If not, what maps are you refering to in the first post?

Do you ever reread what you and others have written before?

if you’re down to your last crew slot, it doesn’t matter what vehicle you could’ve brought as your fight is over

I’m not being rude, I just think the discussion has outlived its purpose and the childish name-calling and snarky comments that followed prove my point. I started the game playing arcade back in the day and faced the same exact issues you are seeing now, especially after they turned bomber damage models into wet tissue paper. I just don’t find it realistic or fun to have to use bombers as single-use disposable missiles YOLOing to the center of the map hoping to get a kill or two before being swarmed and shot down, when there are ground targets at all, all because Gaijin can’t be bothered to make the game better suited for bombers. Evidently some people find it fun, or are at the very least willing to put up with it for team wins. Someone said you should focus on how the game works and not how it should work, because clearly the game isn’t working as it should.

You only have two choices. One is attempting to adapt to the meta like these people are suggesting. Accept that maybe you’ll have a good game with your bomber once in a while when the game allows it and try to have a good time despite the game design and not because of it. Otherwise you have to seek greener pastures elsewhere. I went for RB (which has many of the same pitfalls) and then SB to fly my bombers and never looked back. But whatever you choose, just don’t wait for Gaijin to change things for the better, because the chances of that happening are practically zero. Complaining about it is just shouting into the wind.

You’re absolutely right. But I wasn’t the being rude - and the conversation was absolutely childish, pathetic and pointless. That is not my fault. I had 30 comments screeching about ‘IT’S YOUR FAULT!!! soyjak pointing with mouth wide open’ and other such comments completely and utterly irrelevant and aside from my post.

Again, I don’t disagree with you at all, but it’s not what I was asking or saying. That’s what frustrating. It took 50 replies for someone (you) to finally actually answer my post and not go on a tangent, redirect, misrepresent or talk about something entirely unrelated and different.

IF this is how it is, I just won’t play bombers. And that’s what someone could’ve just said and explained to me - but they didn’t. Instead they blamed me for choosing game modes/types that I can’t chose (which they well know), that it’s my fault for choosing a bomber to play as (aside from the point), or that it’s a skill issue (that I’m not just good enough at the game to hit targets that don’t f*cking exist).

If someone had just explained that there’s nothing you can do about it, Gaijin doesn’t care about bombers and arcade mode wasn’t really made for bombers at all - then that’s fine. I just wanted to know if anyone else was having this issue, if there’s a fix on my end, or if War Thunder could do something about it as it’s such an oversight and seems something so obvious and simple to fix.

People may have said that, but they blamed me for it (and again, it’s aside from the point - it’s secondary).

still trying to argue. get a job.

Why do they do it in Air Realistic? Who knows. Bombers are like an after thought in this game. It’s the most loathed part of the game. I was just doing an Air Realistic at 3.7 and if you get a few Wyvern’s in your team you can kiss goodby a few major targets and the three or so high altitude bombers left have to hang around waiting for new targets to spawn. It’s so !@#$ed up it’s not funny. Targets should become immediately available.

It happens in Air Realistic as well. A number of times all I’ll get is a ship to bomb. No one in their right mind would use a high altitude bomber to take out a ship.
