Bombs were nerfed, good. Now take a look at vehicle spam

I’m going to be a bit ranty so excuse me.


This game was comlpletelly ruined by plane spammer by name OlSHl.
He made bombing runs and immediately suicided. For us it was pain in the ass as we were bombed repeatedly, for allies it was pain in the ass as his suicides probably costed their victory.

He made 2 types of suicide:

  • crash like an idiot
  • after landing, use “kill yourself” option like an idiot

My solutions to those problems:

  • Make vehicles cost to spawn (no, I don't mean maintenance)
    After 7 months it is ripened enough I guess. Implement it already, vehicle spam is a serious problem both with planes and with tanks.
  • Make suicide count as teamkill and give -exp. It should be a last ditch measure if you are stuck in the terrain or sth like that, not a go to strategy.
  • [Edit, I forgot about it] add a 20s delay between when a vehicle is destroyed and when the new one can spawn.

I find tank spam to be far worse now than plane spam now but I agree with your suggestion.

For destroying tanks I can at least get some points.
Pilots don’t give a fuck and suicide straight away.

This is true. My problem with it is that very few people end up actually dealing with the tank which puts me on AT duty the entire match

you just destroyed two t28s you think you contributed to the victory, nope, two t50s just spawned and killed you, it would take at least 60 seconds to spawn another vehicle

yea tanks are a little more ballsy now that they can withstand explosion packs to specific hull plates, but i actually enjoy it now having to use more then 1 pack to decimate tanks, gives me a feeling of actual accomplishment when i do finally take em out XD

I dont get this. Cant you just suicide from the seat via the menu? Why did he land?

Maybe he thinked he is playing WT and didnt wanted to pay repair cost.

Spam 🤷
You’re not supposed to post names and rant about others. (Ahah it does sound silly, the forum is an amazing place to rant)

As for tank spam, I like it, but not because of what you guys might think: blowing them up!!! It gives alot of xp and man I love the fireworks they do when I explode them, a real 4th of july!

Good idea in theory, but flawed in practice: it could REALLY punish your team badly. Say the enemy got a pz3 with the 50mm gun. You want to spawn in your t50 to easily waste it, but… you can’t! A new player spawned a t60 and got blowed up right away, causing a 60 sec delay?
This delay would be nice for INDIVIDUALS, tho. And we could even up it to 120 seconds.

an individual delay is fine too, but a little breathing is needed, you destroy 3 tanks and 2 more are just spawned especially if you destroy them alone

You clearly dont play normandy

@TheElite96 they are false flagging the OP because they disagree with him.

I don’t!!! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
It’s why I enjoy the game. From what I constantly read here, Normandy is a giant turd.

It is a wise idea to limit spawning vehicles. Like what I suggested just for planes: Each human has limited times or need to earn sth to spawn as a vehicle. Though I dont like WT’s strict limitation. But there need to be some more limitation except 2+1+1 vehicles.

You are 110% correct sir

Honestly think my enjoyment of the game would have doubled tenfold if i just never played normandy

limit them but not for premium customers.

I wish to have a “spawn in previous state” until better fix is done. So if he suicide bombed, next spawn of his same plane will need to turn around and refill first. (Targeting suicide bomber pilots, so probably only for planes, and only if the plane was in air for a too short time.)

Planes have always been annoying both in war thunder and now enlisted but honestly it doesn’t really both me i suppose its just something people are going to have to deal with. Also yes I hate pilots that kamikaze too who do they think they are some sort of Japanese.

In terms tank spam I’ve never really had an issue with it the more tanks the enemy spawns the more points I can get destroying them or at least that’s how i view it. Besides tanks are pretty easy to counter and outplay considering how easy they are to kill. Like hell you can even kill some lighter armored tanks with normal grenades. So yes enemy team keep spamming tanks and keep giving me those juicy tank kills.

Also tank and plane limit is 2 so I don’t see how its “vehicle spam” if you want to see real vehicle spam go play empires mod ,heroes and generals or planeside 2.

I thought the same thing, and put my thumb up on OP post. Kids don’t want to lose their ego strokes by watching K / D scoreboards I guess :smiley:

My guess is:
If your vehicle is destroyed, last person that damaged it gets points. But if you land and suicide, vehicle is not getting destroyed, thus enemy doesn’t get points for destroying vehicle.
