I don’t why we needed to nerf paratroopers even more, it’s to the point where I wouldn’t even recommend using them at all. If there’s an enemy plane in the air then it’s a 50/50 chance that you get shot out of your plane, lose half your squad, and get forced to land in your own back line.
Before it actually took some skill to shoot paratroopers down cause all you got was a red triangle showing there was a plane there, but because most pilots in this game rely on the lead indicator you would almost never get shot down because that pilot never got the indicator.
Now you don’t even have to lead your shots like you would in War Thunder, you just get told where to shoot as if it was necessary to make it easier to shoot down the slow defenseless plane flying in a straight line.
This was a stupid change that never should have happened and I feel bad for whatever dev was behind this change, they’re stuck in 2023 the way they think paratroopers needed to be nerfed.
Well, para are something you won’t need most of the time but sometime you really hope you bring them.
It’s just a toy for those who are rich of squad slot.
Yes very clever to spawn them as weaker assaulter squad. They are not meant to be used in that way people dont grind event or spend money just to spawn them on ground
Paratroopers are vert situational, and tbh, not that good. Paras are like a big noob trap (that I fell for) and the sauads are kinda bad. For example, the Japanese have paras with type 100 rifle. Its a very weak squad. Basically just a nerfed rifleman squad. They shpuld make it uniqie by giving it 8 men instead of 6. All patatroopers should also be able to drop in the enemy grayzone and essentially function as partisans.
They were in a good position before, when used properly could cause severe damage in the enemy back line. Now with the drastically increased chance of getting shot down they just too weak to justify using most of the time. They weren’t a trap before but now they are
