Old problem: Vehicle spamming

Let’s be honest — vehicles are the easiest way to farm points in the game. But they follow the same spawn rules as infantry squads — no cooldowns, no cost.

The issue gets worse because paid players can have more than one vehicle slot, we can spawn vehicle one after another, and this makes the game completely broken. For ground battle, tanks can quickly eliminate multiple squads, and when someone finally made it to kill the tank, just spawn another tank and continue to farm infantry. For air combet it’s even worse, a battle between two premium player is just a revenge cycle — you got killed by someone, you spawn another plane to kill him back, you can try over and over until you success. These gameplay are the real P2W in this game, you can tell by seeing more vehicle in event where F2P players can also try vehicle spamming, 80% the time a player will spawn another vehicle if possible.

The solutions also have been proposed many times. and vehicle spawn score cost, or just apply plane suicide penalty to every vehicle, making player can’t spawn 2 vehicle in a row.
After this, infantry’s vehicle countermeasures can also be nerf, AA taking more time to build, AT weapon reload slower. Making the gameble between vehicle and infantry more strategical.

More nerfs, yeah just what’s the game needs. So NO, I don’t think so! Stop telling me what I can and can’t spawn in the game. There are already enough restrictions!

Obviously not

Warthunder have spawpoint
Battlefield and H&G have limited vehicle for squad
HLL need commander to allocate resources to vehicle

limit vehicle spawn is a normal game design

My suggestion, fit my squad with more xplosiin pax!! You spam, I bang :). One match, I laid a rally next to a tank spawn route just to have more bangs available to deal with the 12 tanks I boomed from it. More xplosion slots xxx

A dedicated pilot or tanker is more effective than 10 people taking their turn one after another.

Also, this game lets you die quite often from nonsense that wasnt your fault - better not playing vehicles at all than getting frustrated that some BS took away your one chance at playing with a tank.

If I wanna play as tanker- I wanna play as tanker.

Well, maybe you should be playing those games then. Besides, vehicles are already restricted in this game. There can only be two tanks on the battlefield at any given time, and you also are restricted by how many vehicle squads you can have in your lineup—and I forget what that number is. Furthermore, there is a sub-faction of players in this game who are constantly asking for nerfs, and regularly shooting down any new ideas to improve the game because they always think it’s OP. I’m tired of hearing it—so go away!

See Mr-87, you should be doing what this guy is doing: Coming up with strategies and tactics to deal with the issue instead of trying to change the game for everybody else just because you don’t like it. This guy turned the tank spam into an opportunity instead of a battle cry for more nerfs.

What that guy said MR 87! Turned a negative into a positive…battle points balance. Is kinda point farming too lol xxx

This.

someday I will finish a great treatise on tanks…

Where you see a problem, I see an exaggerated amount of points that a guerrilla/paratrooper can farm in that situation.

If there aren’t any on the team, well, there are still ways to counter them quickly. At the end of the day, it depends on the team.

making play can’t spawn 2 infantry squads in a row.

You won’t survive against revenge cycle in air combat, no metter how much plane you shot down they can always spawn another and chase down you. A premium pilot can overwhelm F2P pilot with plane spam, that’s the problem.

I don’t know if you remember when APC first release they count as vehicle squad, the reason confirmed by the devs is they think players should spawn infantry squad than always stay on vehicle, but you know what? if you paid they won’t care anymore. If this is how enlisted treat F2P players than this game worth dying.

Yes, an “opportunity” that you need to paid to use

There’s always been method to deal with vehicle, but the time and effort it cost not worth it.
Suppose you can kill every vehicle that comes by camping with AT squad /AA gun, but if enemy vehicle made it to kill a single squad of your team, your counter are failed, because enemy vehicle player successful keep you busy + deal extra damage two your team.

And the solution is obviously to give 3 unlockable vehicle slots to free to play players - something I have been asking for… well for years actually.

No, you don’t get the point
Having pilot revenge in air over and over is cringe

Cool - lets limit infantry because of revenge killing.

Lets limit paratroopers that land ontop of tanks - obviously revenge killing.

Also when a pilot gets shot down, he shouldn’t be allowed to build AA guns for 5 minutes in order to prevent revenge killings.

If you haven’t noticed by now, the entire game is about revenge killing.

The different is this game is more infantry based. Vehicle should be limited tactics assest in such “large battle” game. If this game is all about plane, like WT air arcade I fully support air combat should be revenge killing + teamwork. But this is not, vehicle in combine arms game is more valuable than infantry squad. Otherwise we shouldn’t have quantity limit or vehicle, making the battle field filled with plane and tank, and that’s another kind of game called WT bround battle.

These are countermeasures, not infinite cycle of revenge.
