Can happen - depends on the map, eg. pokrovskoye(?) village is quite cqb, fortress rather not. Did you have bolts or mp40-kiraly-etc spam?
Considering how clueless the average stalingrad player is, pistols and melee might be competitive.

Since OBT started almost all matches I’ve played in moscow were full auto & explosives fiesta.
Maybe, I don’t care.
I just want to have fun, shoot bots and do things I can’t do in other games.
Unfortunatelly this is often ruined by some asshole who needs to score 50000 kills on clueless bots and casual players to make his digital dick grow just a little bit so it can finally become visible without a microscope.
And then I hear some idiots asking for a competetive gamemode. In a game where you kill stupid AI that often doesn’t shoot back.
Go play CoD FFS and leave this game alone.

Just bring back aa gun damage the only players that affected were players who couldn’t fly for shit it never affected the ace pilots But now since the changes any noob can fly
And why are you so triggered about it? Since casuals will be blocking slots for those who would wreck you even harder.
Seems kinda counterproductive.
aa guns were fine the way they were it punish players who had no skill and couldn’t fly properly but it never affected the ace pilots but now any idiot can fly
I agree. I think in 2 years of playing I might have seen planes ‘dominate’ just twice. It’s negligible. Planes are a fun facet of the game.

Idk about that necessarily. I for one like engineering structures and support. Its not meta to use field guns and ampulomets (more as a mortar than for up close, just need a teammate as a spotter), yet I do. Granted they are best used when one has friends to work with making them quite more effective, but I honestly think by providing support with them its more effective than me rushing the point with another assaulter squad.
It was balanced until they made planes indestructable by AA guns. I’ve had a 4 stack on AA guns concentrating fire on Normandy allied CAS and the planes still let off an accurate payload, circle around, snipe a tank from 3km out with HVAR/M8, and RTB with maybe a leaking engine for my stack’s troubles.
The only way you can kill a plane with AA is if they were already intending to crash (suicide bomb).
Planes themselves do not determine a battle, however, being able to instantly clear open-air cap points with no danger to friendly infantry is a supremely powerful ability, HVARs magically splash damage people through buildings and one-tap tanks by splashing nearby.
I’d say they take zero skill to use, just determination to get past the abysmal plane controls.

the real issue is that the maps with their tiny objectives and obvious limited paths from spawn to objectives in small areas make it easy for planes to be highly effective
if the objectives were larger and the plane actually depended on ground communications for their targets they wouldn’t be quite as devastating
the AA is an entire other issue
because they balance them around some planes and then are completely useless against others
and then there is the entire thing that aa wasn’t really used in the way they are used in this game
not to mention you can use anti tank guns against planes

I agree with this.
Basically everything you need do to is attack objective and you’ll always score some kills. It’s very lame.
I agree with what people said, small objectives, broken hitboxes, meh AA and also being niche BUT…
Airplanes are broken because they do not do team damage, yesterday our plane dropped HVARs on top of me, obliterating everything in front of me, I didn’t get even a scratch, seems legit too me 
make it do at least 50% damage, even 30% but this terminator mode is pure BS.
Devs did attempt to introduce a concusion from friendly explosives.
But in their infinite wisdom they didn’t add a notification you were hiting friendlies.
Result was as expected.

Maybe they could introduce what we have in Lone fighter friendly damage and a penalty for killing your teammates or damaging them that should stop that crap From happening and People spamming rockets and bombs everywhere
