Pacific plane spawns

I"m not sure they would damage a revenue stream for such petty reasons.

But I agree with you in that the distances need to be greater for the CAS run. Particularly taking into account the BR rating and therefore the performance characteristics of the aircraft available to each side.

No…

I like the mechanics of it.

But it’s indeed unfair. A solution would be to bump p38 up some tiers. Allies HAVE many carriers based aircrafts from the Pacific campaign. They are fun too… Just completely obsolete due to tier1 p38.

Not op at all. It sits well at tier IV, along other planes like 109s, Yaks… And dreaded Spitfires (who are somehow tier 2, while being the best dogfighters in game. Maybe because no bombs)

A simple solution to it, would be to add a timer before p38 or p51 can be used… like in all other campaigns.

The timer isn’t present in Pacific simply because all planes used to be carrier based.

Perhaps OP is not the correct description. It’s really good and does very well at BR4 against aircraft and tanks.

Bruh all you need is 2 wings and a bomb

I didn’t even know the Americans started in the sky but I don’t care. It just makes it all the more worth it when I get kills for the Emperor

Really?

Tell me, where is Henderson Field? Where is Edson’s Ridge? Why is there a beach invasion at the Tenaru map when the Japs were already inland? Where are the Coconut groves at Tenaru? Why is there a bridge at Tenaru when there never was one? Why are the trenches on the wrong side of the Tenaru River? Why are there a bunch of village huts at Tenaru when it was all trenches, foxholes, and Coconut trees galore?

Why is Hurtgen “Forest” not an actual forest but instead a ripoff of Mamayev Hill?

Do any of these pictures look closely related to the Hurtgen “forest”?

Here are more pictures of the actual battle from Hurtgen Forest:

Why have the American gun sights been left untouched even though the community has been bringing it up for months now? Why did they release gun sights like this yet seemingly release German, Japanese, and Russian guns with better gun sights? Here is a visual example for you:

Is Darkflow just really bad with just American Guns? People have brought it up thousands of times, so why haven’t they fixed any of the sights? Convince me it is not intentional?

Are they just putting the least amount of effort into American battlefields by accident? Stalingrad at least has its famous buildings, and Berlin at least has its famous buildings, so why can’t the Americans have theirs? Is it just some coincidence that the American battlefields are not getting any attention to detail? If anything, it should be easier since the American maps aren’t a huge city like Stalingrad or Berlin. All it’s going to be is trees, outposts, trenches, and a few bunkers. Is that so hard to get right? Convince me that this is just a big misunderstanding.

I just started playing the Japanese and that first plane is already frustrating enough. Need like 5 hours to figure out how to get in the air without burning the engine…only to get shot down by the allied fighter before reaching the combat zone to drop the bombs.

We need to cancel plane spawns on aircraft carriers

Taking off from 0 speed on an aircraft carrier and flying 3km to reach the battlefield does not provide any actual support to your teammates. Every second is precious on the battlefield, and taking off from an AC is a waste of time.

And some of them are even higher tiered than the P-38 for no reason.

Perhaps it could be useful to add a timer for USA players that have aircraft that don’t spawn from the carrier … Like they do in other campaigns. I think it takes about a minute to spawn a plane once round starts.

The maps were probably made by Z gen, they reject everything to do with history or facts. The only thing that matters is that there is a game, we have some pew pews and the locations are roughly representative of some patriarchally created locations :wink:

P.S. I think you’re taking this game far more seriously that its devolved to be.

I think the original team of cool and history minded dudes are now somewhere in the SMO, so you get this instead - the D team…

Yet here I am, encouraging history and facts. Here, I am showing how easy it is to look up a YouTube video on battles and pictures of the battlefields. You have not convinced me this is not intentional, incompetence, or downright anti-American.

Except for American battlefields, right?

Aren’t they serious about being Enlisted? Don’t they play it?

What is SMO?

I"m not here to convince you of anything change your mind or anything else that you seem to refer to youtube.

All I’m commenting on is that you need to accept the game for what it is, and as is your prerogative whilst a participant in the game to throw your suggestions at the devs and hope that something sticks.

The devs are aware of the issues, but they have limited resources, so its a matter of suck it up and wait, they also know that many other titles are coming out which will scalp their playerbase if they don’t address enough of the issues that are brought up by the community. Either way time will tell, they are running a business, and if ppl keep paying then all will be well, the moment they vote with their feet then Enlisted will be relegated to the list of all the other titles who tried but failed.

Blame it on Gen Z, right?

They have such limited resources that they can create 3-4 story buildings in Stalingrad but not put a bunch of evergreen trees close together and then call it Hurtgen forest.

They are so limited in resources that they can’t dig a couple of foxholes on the left side of the river, along with a couple of sandbags stacked up for mgs. Not to mention that River was knee-deep.


They are so limited in resources that they can make an entire airfield at Gavutu yet not be able to put a dirt runway a couple of points back from Tenaru River.

They are so limited in resources that they can’t slap a bunch of bushes, greenery, and a coconut grove and call it a night.

The Vickers Mk.1 No 2 had its sights fixed before the release of the British paratroopers, so why didn’t they do the same for the M1A1 Carbine? Surely they had a few resources to spare to go back and fix those sights, right?

And let’s be clear about something: there wouldn’t be any issues with the maps if they did it right the first time. They have no excuses as to why they went off on their imagination with this since it would’ve been easier to slap a bunch of trees, foxholes, and bushes down and call it a day. But instead, that was too hard, so they decided to make a bunch of houses, a Church, and an entire town that supposedly had something to do with the battle of Tenaru River.

What does this look like to you?

I think the phenomenon you’re arguing against is called “good enough for government work” and yes the Gaijin/DF team are probably subscribers to that school of thought :wink:

Why don’t you answer the question, sir?

Pacific planes are broken. Even planes who previously started on carriers now now starts in the air - for example premium Ki.

They really did screw up Pacific air. And they do not care for more than month already.

Could not disagree with this more: The carrier takeoffs was one of the best things introduced in the Pacific. It basically removed suicide bombing as a worthwhile tactic since it takes longer to get into the air. It also gives you a place to repair and the AAA on the carriers protects from spawn campers.

The real problem is planes starting high and fast and basically right above the capture point. You shouldn’t be able to spawn into an airplane and suicide bomb yourself into the point all in ten seconds or less.

They need to add airfields to all maps so that all planes need to take off from land or sea. Failing that they should start planes further away from the point, slower and lower. It should take the same amount of time and effort to get to the point as it does from a carrier.

About pacific planes - It’s known the ones with airspawns don’t have the 1:30min respawn timer

Ki-61 is an army plane, it’s not supposed to take off from carriers, so that’s why it spawns in the air
