Please add aircraft repair point to other campaigns too, it´s too annoying to fly the entire battle with damaged engine and you cannot reach max speed cause of it(just an example). Can you please add them to other campaigns?
Id argue just parachute out onto a point and do as much damage as you can if you have lost most control surfaces or your engine is significantly damaged. Let someone else fly next while you cycle out your squads to go again.
Though adding them say 2000m behind the rearm point doesnt seem like a terrible idea either.
Removing them from the Pacific wold create a better level playing field.
But it won’t happen and you’ll probably get you silly request some day
At the same time what’s the point of plane repair anyway? Vehicles are pretty much one and done. Sure you can repair whatever damage you get but at a certain point all your crew is dead and you’re the lone tanker. Unless if vehicles should have a repair/ replenish system too
Its common if your facing constant LMG fire to take partial damage to control surfaces, its rare to take damage that is only a hinderance though. Like if your oil or water gets damaged at all, thats an instant GG if your in a plane while a repair point would allow that more “minor” damage to survive to repair.
I was thinking maybe we don’t need airfields. Maybe instead they can just make the resupply point the everything point and move it way further back in the sky. Repair and resupply
I’ve also thought maybe ground vehicles can receive the same treatment. Repair and perhaps crew replenishment.
Yes please add airfields
It would be nice if the planes need to go back to the airfield for repairs & rearm like they do in WT. Maybe i would desert less due to fustration from them.
an engineer squad hard counters any aircraft in the game currently, so if you dont have one I would highly recommend one.
Planes maybe show up like one every 10 games, i juust prefer to desert & go next game instead of spending my time doing AA.
- Playing with planes is not fun
- Doing AA is both boring takes time and bad on score
All you have to do with AA is wack one down the second you hear an aircrafts engine. You can build one in about 5 seconds and it takes all of what another 5-15 seconds to score an easy 300 points?
Playing with aircraft is fantastic fun, and playing against aircraft is easy as long as you have the tools on hand. Not to mention engineer squads are just really good, the only times I dont use them is when I’m grinding multiple squads out.
Engineer squads make defence missions at least 90% easier, rally spam, ammo boxes always help. Not to mention the utility that a sudden MG or AT gun can offer, at least at lower tiers, the MG is less effective at higher BR’s
Yeah i use Engineer as one of my 3 infantry squads , along an MG Squad and Assaulters.
But with the limited squads i can only get to spawn them when its their turn, as an F2P you dont have the flexibility to spawn whatever you need , but whatever is the next in the unit rotation.
MG wise i prefer to build one on the dedicated MG team , those ones seem way way more deadly than the regular engineer squad ones. But the AT cannon & ammo or generally just spreading out a bunch of tank traps on some map can really make the enemy attackers suffer.
Same, I vary my other squads but an engineer squad is always there. The HMGs are absurdly broken at BR2 and below, and dont get me wrong, they are still great at higher BRs, but they truly shine vs the lighter vehicles lower down. HMGs and MG nests can do much the same job purely vs infantry though. (Though HMGs have hilarious ragdoll effects I suggest you abuse to send your next enemy to the moon)
AT guns are good situationally and ammo is great all the time. But tank traps tend to be a bit of noob trap unless used perfectly (save for a few maps which are severely broken and really shouldnt be in the roster until fixed (DDay assault map comes to mind with those stupid roads). I much rather the use of sandbags and barbed wire on the objective. A layer outside the windows, sandbags in windows and something behind them so you can still shoot out and then wherever else you can fit barbed wire. (But not the barbed wire carpets, those are just a bit dumb)
What sort of games are you playing? They are in every game I play.
This is an efficiency issue
Whether it is a direct crash or consumables, the cost is lower than the time wasted in repairing and taking off and the death of teammates.
And teammates who are fighting hard don’t want to see pilots with aircraft that can’t hit high-risk enemy targets while parasites take up important resources.
BR II Most of the time, there they are not too common at all. Mostly is usually pure tank spam, maybe except if you face japan, they tend to use planes way more than the rest.
But on the other hand an avg game vs Soviets or Germans i tend to end up with +5 tank kill, there is an endless stream of Pz IIIs and T-28 in all of the games when it comes to those 2 nation.
The premise is to add an airport and let the plane take off from the airport. Like the Pacific War, you need to take off from the aircraft carrier and land to get repaired instead of adding a stupid repair point in the air. As if the aircraft operation of this game is not simple enough
The point where you can repair planes in pacific, it´s located on carrier and for seaplanes in water.
