Planes shouldn't be spamable

An avarage battle fighting against plane spammers
All 15 plane I killed are player’s plane
Even if I got like 4 vehicle K/D still can’t protect my teams from getting HVARed
It’s just very frustrating when you killed a plane, turn back and saw another guy spawn in immediately
Just give us airfiled or some mechanics against this

Yup. But DF won’t do anything because all of the wt rejects.

As someone who sucks at WT but excels in Enlisted I am offended you would drag us into this. Lol

By that logic, every vehicle squad in the game is spammable. You just need enough people willing to play them at the same time. It’s just that everything goes faster when you’re on airplanes.

No AA on Pacific maps? free kill indeed.

guy spawn in immediately

You know that’s a lie. Like, you would need to have EVERY SINGLE TIME, someone on queue for a pilot squad spawn. That’s very unusual.

Let’s not make rules from exceptions, okay?

If you buy more squad slots, you can have multiple planes and can spawn them one after another in succession so long as you don’t suicide it

I tested this for 2 fighter squads and 1 attacker, and still, if you’re just trashing your planes like he described, you can at best spawn 1 fighter and 1 attacker in succession, and are forced to play on the ground.
It’s pretty much useless to have more than 1 same-type aircraft, unless you have a very specific taste.

Just misleading BS nonsense based on OPs irrational frustration from aircrafts.


That’s like saying… I just took out a squad of enemies, but the dude immediately spawned 50 meters from the objective and I have to do it again. So therefore it’s spam and thus we should reduce the respawn of cool infantry to 60sec+. Because I just can’t deal with it.

That’s utter nonsense.

The fact you and your teammates don’t know how to defend yourselves. That’s not really the problem of aircraft players. And they definitely shouldn’t be published for it.

Literally all you have to do survive like 85% of bomb explosions is to go prone. It’s extremely effective.

And if you think HVARs are so annoying and imbalanced. Then something should be done about them.
Instead of using that as justification for a drastic nerf of every aircraft (when in fact like 3-4 planes are equipped with them).

You spwn , you head off to try to build an anti-aircraft, within a few seconds with no time to finish setting anything up a Yankee, a German, a Russian has fired their rockets at you, killed your entire squadron, killed half of your team and you’re probably going to lose that point because there’s almost no one to defend it, the guy who was building a rally point has also been hit and died with the rest, does that seem fair to you? Because it doesn’t to me and sometimes you can hit the damn American planes in critical areas and keep going until you can drop your load…but EY,it’s our fault for don’t be enough fast

AKA suiciding

I know english isn’t the first language of most people in here, but come on man

Nope. You don’t have to suicide to trash your plane.

You can just parachute and stall for a clean respawn, from which I rest my case if you can read and interpret the argument I’ve made.

darkflow just needs to make it so you cannot spawn a vehicle squad if your previous squad also used a vehicle

That…counts as suiciding the plane. You don’t get to work around their anti suicide rule like that. You must be shot down by someone for it to allow you to spawn in another plane without penalty

LOL

All these planes are enemy bombers.

Try another one.

It would make me quit the game. That’s not what I have paid for.

I feel your pain, so often I try my absolute best to prevent my team from being HVAR’d but there’s only so many planes you can take down before flying back. Hell sometimes even if I do enough damage to ensure the kill they still survive just long enough whilst on fire and torn to shreds to splash the point with HVAR before crashing.

It’s especially punishing when it’s in low BR and I have to take off from the Carrier with the Zero to take out P-38s spamming M8 rockets. Then it’s rinse and repeat when I inevitably have a P-38 spawn behind me as I take a plane down and then I have to take off all over again.

I really wish for the pacific there was an airfield mechanic for all planes, some from the carrier, some from an on the ground airfield strip.

I’ll give em the benefit of the doubt. I’ve had a game with 17 air kills all players in BR5

That Is why you dogfight before doing it! Nobody trashes a perfectly intact plane if not trolling.
My original point was: even if you cheese, you can’t “mass produce” your airplanes.

There are so much more vehicles on land, and nobody seems to care that they are a constant threat. But having to deal with 2 airplanes seems impossible.? … my experiece is: build 1 AA gun in whatever spot you can find, you’ll take care of 90% of pilots in this game. Only the really good ones know how to avoid ground fire, even fewer how to dispatch AA guns without dying.

Plus @TheUnclaimedOne , there’s absolutely no reason to believe that it’s your primary job as a pilot to solo intercept every enemy air support. That’s impractical given the size of the maps.
We don’t expect our tanks to take care of all armored vehicles, do we? we bring other tools for the job. Same thing goes for aircraft.

rearming your plane and doing a second attack run needs to be at least 50% faster than respawning - thats the real issue, moving plane spawns much further back is the only solution.

I only saw the second one was a tank player
Are all the spawn points built placed right in front of the capture point?
Maybe you should make your teammates a little smarter
Make more use of terrain and smoke
It would be better to punish the last 4 players.

I think the biggest reason your teammates will be slaughtered by the Rockets is because they almost only attack from the front.
Any player with a normal brain knows a very simple truth.
Suicide infantry will only attack from the front
So as long as you throw firepower in the enemy’s main attack direction, you can clear out those idiots who have no thinking ability.
