Air superiority in enlisted?

We gonna have amazing Radio Operator Squad abuse to call thousand tactical bombings against the target!

Look at these guys!!! Just stand behind the frontline and call the bombers to drop 10000000000000000000000 bombs against the infantry and objective while allies just go ahead and cap the objective with 0 efforts (unless if friendly fire is enabled) 100 kills in less than 4 minutes along with the help of suicide bombing, the game will instantly be turned into The Blitz 2.0.

Thoughts?

(P.S; Yep, I have read the full post about it. Amazing addition but it could be abusable. Just my thought on it.)

(Postscript 2: Yes, this is the low effort of gaining kills easily by just HE spamming the airstrike against infantry and tanks by just standing behind the frontline then called the airstrike, it just requires no effort. )

pretty sure such carpet bombings only happened againt stationary targets
so a great way to counter safezone camping tanks

Bombers were so wildly inaccurate they had to use multiple planes on one target and STILL missed most the time. Im not really excited for its addition

hey, I don’t know if you read the full post, but, in case you didn’t notice, they are giving us the option to repel such an attack and that the cooldown is 2 minutes, enough time to mount a good counterattack.

it’s colossally retarded

2 minutes to:

  • spawn in your own fighter
  • actually FIND bombers
  • reach them
  • unload all your bullets into one
  • bomber soaked up all dammages…
  • try and go rearm…
  • boom, too late, they fly away.

Amazing.

I also see it as a different problem: more people will fly around to counter bombers which means less people will be attacking/defending. 4 human players, half take to the skys, one builds an AA gun and the point gets over run as a result

Great idea to counter that with 10 players, even more are distracted building stuff or flying with some fighter plane, so how many ppl play the Objektive than? By now most ppl have trouble to press W, after this update if player count and maps size ins’t increased we’ll have a no longer a pleasant time.

Ppl here argue for counter play, but the core thing is you don’t have enough player to drop on that for a counter play.

you can use the AA guns, plus they said the planes will come in a straight line so we don’t have to go looking for them

People are hype for some reason.

But the problem is myself. When I first joined I thought about a possible RO2 successor. It’s call of duty with squads.

We fough and tell the devs “we hate getting bombed repeatedly” they nerfed arty, mortars and bomb radius, was nice.

Now they bring in map wiping air strikes (because play zone is small.

Amazing… :unamused:

I think the current amount of air strikes and arty are just fine and dont need another LARGER set of explosives. Id prefer maybe recon planes? Mortar strikes? Other things that change the dynamics but aren’t just massive boom booms again.

Oh yes. You mean those AA guns nobody ever use on planes because of how super effective they are?..

Not to mention bombers are bullets sponges.

Waste 1 minute building a few of them, get off 10 rounds, get bombed to death regardless lol oh and still lose the point

I use them, but if they should improve the damage log on planes and expand the maps, I don’t know how many times I’ve been saying the same thing

Yes. It’s what I told them too. Instead people are happy with more bombs. I must be getting too old, I don’t get why they are happy with it. It won’t even make fighters more relevant, you can only get ONE in the air… to take out possibly THREE bombers… that EACH can soak up all the fighter’s ammunition load.

In before people sit 400 meters from the point and make an AA gun battery in the woods

This is stupid because as many people knows, plane vs plane damage are just unrealistically broken. 13mm, 20mm autocannon etc are just ‘autocannons’ by name, they act like full auto 9mm machinegun against planes. The AA Flak gun cannons themselves are pretty bad against planes, how are we expected to deal with AI bombers who probably will be armed with Aimbot laserbursting AI gunners? It’s disastrous for all side, but mostly for Axis, only the Bf-110 would be absolutely killing them with the 37mm

Really, since the map is so narrow, it is very easy to generate bottlenecks, expanding the map is the best, it does not matter if they have to rework everything, since it is worth it, because I am getting tired of that while I am leaving to build a meeting point the attackers have already reached the point and are already sweeping my companions

There’s more than Normandy campaign… other factions got such canons… but still won’t help much.

Can we test it before we complain?
