Planes

You might just say go play war thunder but do hear me out.
Allowing more planes can make fighter pilots viable. Or at least when there are bigger fights more planes, or just having a more plane inclusive mode would be neat.
Also bombing runs need to be easier to shoot down, I’m sick of trying in a flak gun or chasing in my plane.
War thunder is ok but Enlisted has many features I prefer to War thunder. Namely infantry, first person perspective, and WW2 exclusive vehicles.

we really don’t have the maps and enough players per side to allow that as with 4 slots you are already down 40% of your team that can take the cap, and if you want a plane only mode might as well play war thunder then :man_shrugging:

As much as I love fighters, they really are in a weird spot right now.

you are already down 40% of your team that can take the cap

Tbf, the same could be said about tanks, though I also get that they are a bit more effective at pounding the point. Either way though, there definitely needs to be more to do in the air for fighters, because at the moment they are too reactive of a class instead of just being proactive like many other squads.

that is why i said 40% since its 4 vehicle slots in a game (1 attacker, 1 fighter, and 2 tanks)

I’m saying this as a player that uses aircraft quite a bit:
I understand your frustration, however, more aircraft would lead to a ton of different problems, just to name a few…

  • More players in the sky means less players on the ground. this less people on the actual objective, or providing direct support at least. It would quickly screw over teammates.
  • Amount of ordinance dropped from the sky. One fighter and one attack plane already dominate the ground pretty often. Adding more to that would be hell.
  • With that many planes, more people would have to be focusing on AA. This is already troublesome, as some fighters move so fast on attack runs that the currently available AA can’t turn fast enough to hit them. So for balance purposes, they would start adding in more AI controlled AA, like in Pacific. If you attempt to fly over the enemy carriers, you get instantly killed. I can promise that would get really annoying quickly.

I could name more, but I think you get the point. More aircraft is NOT a good solution. As far as the bombing runs go, they need to be easier to shoot down, but they also need to do more damage if they lose their survivability.

After 1st point falls on rivercrossing map, there is a bug on lone fighters, that atleast 10 tanks and 10 planes can spawn same time per team.

By far the best batles, most fun vehicle batles I had in this game.

Lone fighters, not moded, on rivercrossing map.

Plane action must be sick too with so many planes on a 25 vs 25 human match. Honestly quite amazing on that partícular map

SamuraiLTU player used to do that map only on rotation for both sides, and I m always trying to get it when I play LF.

Read, I said what I said

This isn’t a solution I propose, only a future idea. This isn’t for right now
I even said it.

Also the bombers do not need more damage. Even if easy to shoot down.

Finally, fighters are meant to move fast so it can be ok because they don’t have massive ordnance and sone don’t even have bombs or rockets.
