Yes.
It’s a war game, not war simulator. It supposed to be fun and enjoyable, not tedious and annoying.

Pure skill issue.
Howitzers are very easy to spot from aircraft, at least in “big action”. They are the only thing in the open and emit a lot of flash when fired, often relying on AA positions to survive.

You need to accept the reality that most of the players are bad. So stop using your veteran perspective.
It is funny that I literally said hard to counter when you are on land. But you two keep insisting aircraft as the counter.
The effectiveness of mortars depends mostly on the enemy’s reaction ability and the player’s understanding of the map and the enemy.
As an offensive player who is good at supporting teammates and destroying logistics
I will provide fire support and smoke cover for my teammates when I use paratroopers to build a respawn point
Although this behavior may waste 20 to 40 seconds and give the enemy a chance to discover me, it may not necessarily benefit me.
But as long as their teammates are good enough, they will make good use of this time to attack the stronghold.
It’s always good to find the coordinates early.
But I agree that players calling a lot are annoying
But they are only a minority of cases
The flash and sound of the tanks were obvious
The same goes for mortar vehicles.
Planes, mortars, walk over
Choose one yourself
Don’t always complain that your explosive pack can’t automatically fly to the tank ammunition rack 250 meters away
It can be made into a button switching mode or directly give a mortar indicator mark
For example, let the 88 trucks get mortar shells or directly allow all shells to be used as mortars
This is a PVP game
Even if the war machine is powerful, it also requires the player’s intelligence and stupid targets to show its performance, right?
Happiness is something you strive for
Instead of being like those irresponsible and thoughtless suicide infantrymen who only launch suicide charges all day and always complain about the enemy’s equipment or mechanism being OP because they die in enemy ambushes and artillery attacks.
You still haven’t say how do you even spot them using mortar.
Lol don’t always think that f2p players have so many slots to bring those situational squad. When more players bring planes to counter those vehicles, you will most likely come and rant about incompetent players occupying the plane slot.
How do you even turn those vehicles to mortar in the first place?
Mortar has the ability to indirect fire in such a short range because it can elevate high enough.
Most vehicle’s main armament can’t even elevate that high.
Use sound to infer distance (this is what I usually do when I’m looking for a target behind an enemy)
Large caliber guns make more noise so there is no need to go deep into the rear
Then mark it on the map and test fire the mortar to confirm the location
Although this behavior requires a lot of experience to achieve
But I have seen at least 3 players every week who have been able to use mortars to destroy high-risk targets such as anti-tank guns, bunkers, machine guns and tanks without marking.
So I think this behavior is basically feasible
3 infantry and 1 vehicle
Why is it not enough?
I played this way for the first two years after I entered the game.
In the current environment, you only need to prepare a plane or a guerrilla to solve the problem
The remaining 2 to 3 grids can be used for them to play whatever they want.
The problem of vehicle parasites has always been there, hasn’t it?
Are you sure they are (new arrivals) or (old bugs)?
Have you seen the German 88MM anti-aircraft truck?
The only difference between it and a mortar is that the shells they fire vertically will not fall.
We can also produce more self-propelled artillery
Don’t forget how many similar game content this company has that you can (reference)
Silver Coin 1 car
1 car for activity
Pay for 1 car
A future where everyone has more choices!
Just make sure that the range of the vehicle with the mortar function is limited to 100 to 250 meters.
Reload time is at least 10 seconds (with reload skill)
For larger calibers, the time is extended to about 15 seconds.
The rocket car’s shooting assistance is also only 250 meters (the mark beyond the distance is not displayed)
(Because the rocket car launch track is easier to find and more easily restricted by terrain, no more restrictions are needed)
Doubt the usefulness of such method. The explosion of the shell should be closer to you thus covering the sound of the gun firing.
How do you even prove this in the first place? Do you ignore the battle and watch the mortar guy all the time?
Said by the guy who purchase multiple slots.
Moreover this is a new situation, so your first 2 years experience doesn’t really matters.
I literally said that because you complain about it multiple times. It will only become worse and you will complain more.
OP is talking out artillery and SPG that don’t have the elevation of a SPAA. So why are your talking about 88mm aa truck in the first place?
Mortars have a fall time after firing
I think this time is enough for players to make basic distinctions.
I certainly won’t be looking at the map and the war zone all the time
But I am often responsible for building side respawn points and logistics destruction
This gives me more time to observe the map and player behavior.
I don’t mind taking a second to check the map or player kill stats when I’m using a hammer or ambushing an incoming vehicle.
Paying players certainly have more choices
This is what they got in exchange for money
But for free players, if they can’t even sacrifice one grid
Then I guess they asked for it by becoming long term victims.
will not
Because they already exist
Maybe the problem is that your brain doesn’t understand the concepts of (applicable cases) and (examples)
The anti-aircraft capability of the 88 truck is worse than that of the anti-aircraft gun (it can only attack directly)
So the way to make him more practical is to let him double as a mortar
That’s true but there isn’t much time to type and the communication systems is really hard to use in the heat of battle. Maybe the devs could add voice communication.
Lol, so how do you only use very little time to know the mortar guy use the tactic you said?
You can’t really know if the mortar guy never saw the enemy and just use the sound to determine.
The mortar guy might go and observe the enemy while you are not watching.
The mark might already disappear and you didn’t even notice.
The mortar guy might be killed by the particular enemy last time and spawn in as mortar to revenge.
You are just making a vague claim with little to no evidence.
Lol, typical p2win player mindset. You can’t even tolerate so little number of slots, and now you ask other players to sacrifice one slot, what a hypocrite. Moreover, it’s not like that is the only stuff we need to counter, you really think we only need to sacrifice one slot to counter other stuff?
Lol so apparently you can’t even read? This topic is talking about artillery and SPG, the mortar function you said is only feasible on the 88 truck due to better elevation. So why are you using 88 truck as an example since other vehicle don’t have the same elevation?
