Why so much planes in Ground Battles? And there are not tanks in Air Battles, even SPAA/AA?
In Ground lealistic Battles, 5 minutes after battle start, there are so much planes in the air.
That’s unfair.
Sorry for my bad English.

It’s how the game plays.
Please, use the other CAS centric threads…
(This is just one, there is another though somewhere)
Thanks!

Some people are just too bad on the ground to have fun with It so they use CAS in order to deal with better players.
As someone else mentioned, use other threads and You will see what I’m talking about.

So you are too bad on ground then, which is why you fly your Corsair so much? Nice you admitted that.

They’ve also added new anti-air vehicles, so aircraft shouldn’t be a problem. Aircraft players think they are invincible - teach them a lesson!

Good one, especially because I haven’t used in in a while.
Great that it hurted ;)
Ground event (for a vehicle) started, all gone to farm score points, gameplay flaws (like cheap CAS) become much more obvious.

I’ve been playing rather a lot of BR 4.0 Russian, lately. (GFRB) If I’m not too far downtier, I’ve been having some success. Sadly, the 4.0 Russian I need to spade is actually an SPAA. While some folks have argued over and over that I should just drive my SPAA when the enemy team takes to the air, these battles have frequently had my time more in the air. I think I got shot down my SPAA once, but honestly, I can remember at least twice I was certainly shot down by an enemy airplane. Sadly, I don’t have many ground kills while flying, but I have had them, and lately.
Rounds are FAR shorter than they were when I played all the time. That last match, I did well in my first tank, but did not bail out, but rather kept driving it until someone killed it, then did not have flight time to get to the center of the map before the round ended. Oh! Before I forget, the guys that killed me had been using a LOT of SPAA vehicles while my team was heavily into airplanes. I don’t know if they were getting air kills, but enough of them were blasting me that they got a tank kill. Our team steamruled.
IMHO, this game still really hurts for a tanks-only mode. (But they would far rather force players to spend the money bringing up planes, even when they don’t want to fly, because the current GFRB is so plane-favoring that I can kill SPAAs with my aircraft, more often than not without dying!)
You might be asking yourself, “What’s the big deal?” over killing SPAAs while flying. Certainly, LOTS of pilots routinely slaughter SPAAs, some of whom also go on killing other players too, even proudly RTBing, or some just bailing out to get into another bomb-dispenser without having to RTB. I’m just pointing out a 61 year old navy vet who never flew planes (unless you want to count the 5 minutes I was allowed to take control of a private plane, 40-something years ago.) My reflexes have always been slow. (Think drunken elefant)
There are so many planes because the game favors pilots with rewards. (And it’s easier to get multi-kills while dropping bombs than it will ever be from shooting with any tank armament) Planers aren’t really in a team in this game, and they can do better in the air than they can on the ground. Yes, we are all literally on Blue Team, but it’s every player for him(her?) self. That last round, I was player 1, once it was over. I did that all in a tank, too, so it’s possible, but just sadly so unlikely.
What even do you think a tank could accomplish on a map where 300 km/h takes a good 5 minutes to even reach half of it.
Seriously. Why this argument.
What do you seriously think that ~35 km/h vehicle will do if it literally cannot even leave the square the airfield is in by the time the match is over.
And if you put it near the objectives? Big deal. Planes will just fly a square over and nullify your existence.
Please use your brain when making complaints and going “why planes in tank game but no tank in air game”
Only map an spaa might be at all relevant is the mozdok map which is so small you take off right into the enemy airfield.

Why are CAS haters consistently polluting the forum? There are this kind of posts every week!
I suggest Gaijin changing the name of this game mode to “Combined Arms” or something else so that haters won’t think this should be a ground only mode
One of the reasons of I leave the game on first death, I’m not dealing with some annoying angry player because I killed him and will target me or anyone else for being bad in ground.

LOL! They used to call the mode “Realistic Tank Battles”.

But to everyone, there’s no need to rip into the OP for merely asking.
There should be a ground only mode and combined arms mode, it’s the best solution for both sides but maybe certain brs in specific server will have issues with matchmaking time, don’t see the number behind closed doors so can’t comment much.
