We are sick of this, here is a short term solution for suicide bomber spam

It’s my impression as well. The maps should be fairly large when in open desert, and as such plane spawning points should be further ahead. It’s a must because except 1 or 2 palm trees I fail to see how tanks could hide from incoming bombs.

But it won’t be as “tame” as Moscow, simply because the planes of that war theater will be much more advanced. :thinking:

Yup. I hope that in the 26 lvls available at launch, one will unlock a mobile (efficient) AA for each faction.

Which is rarely occuring and pretty much legit tactic that is not going to profit you directly and was happening from time to time (in scale of few battles, not in one match).

yes

exept, if you keep open the tab for the team, you see that they make tons of kills, but than, all of them get removed if they suicide right after.

i’m not making anything up so…

i’m surprise that you don’t know this since you play this game from a long time.

I am no egoist, even when I am utterly direct and unfriendly as fuck.

But still like to win as a whole team, have good long bloody match, carry old peoples shit from grocery store home. You know, the usual.

i mean u could just remove them as there’s no way to balance the planes at all
there game breaking as u dont have to have to do any thing just ground pound bombing every one including your team ff should be on for planes and bombs should go for strafing runs as well. well the biggest problem is the fact these premium players are totally abusing them 3 planes in there line up needs to go u should only get 1 plane period and make it a 5 min respawn timer on it and 10 mins if they suicide bomb and if they keep doing it it goes up to 15mins for suicide bombers this would solve the plane issues

except that wasn´t always the case? You weren´t around when that bug was active. All we need in payload aspect are adjustments to 250kg/500lb bombs so they won´t have nuke effect anymore, and simple solution I already mentioned (solution that was unintentionaly part of Enlisted for a long time).

I will repeat myself and say yet again, that a lot of former testers me included strongly warned Darkflow that bullshit like this can and will happen. That this will definitely end up as P2W and abusable monetization aspect.
And that was during the so called “monetization closed testing” months before OBT. How Darkflow (aka gaijin) will deal with their past shortsightness is up to them now.

Also sure, I can already see them removing significant portion of the game and readjusting all research levels in all campaigns because of the planes. :clown_face: As much as some players would want to see that, it is not likely to happen. What needs to be done is to adjust “big” bombs for gameplay purposes and work on countermeasures to bomb spawn instead.
This way legit pilots who actively communicate with their team in order to help won´t be affected as much as scum like spawnbombers or kamikazes.

Planes need to stay in the game, they just need a massive spawn nerf. They should be a high risk high reward unit, where only good players can stay alive throughout the match. These no skilled players that just bomb and cancel out of plane at first sign of getting hit, need a 15min spawn timer on the next one they can play.

2 plane runs per CAS per person per a battle, 1 to 2 minute cool down per spawn ( No refueling ). Make it back to refuel/spawn you do not lose 1 of your runs….simple! Good pilots thrive, suicidal morons ( me as I am trying to brake current mode ), will need to adjust.

I am purposely suicidal at this time in planes, prove they are broken….game feature needs some serious looksies ( mainly on Normandy ).

CAS, aim assist, dropping of gernades when dead ….just working features! I say use them as much as possible to force change, its Beta lets break things!

That is actually a feature that you can do with hand grenade when you are downed and doomed since CAT. I´m surprised to see anyone ever had issue (other than moral… but that is up to you to not do that) with it. Its not OP or gameplay breaking so leave it alone and focus on things that are actually important.

People nowdays want to nerf anything that kills them…

no they have no skills and spam planes its not about being killed they suck and need to go they need a 15 min timer on them if they suicide they are abusing them is why i hate them being repeatedly bombed in to submission every round isn’t fun or fair when u cant get off the beach or Capp a point as all he does is circle the objective and bomb and straff and repeat how is that a skilled player when he knows he cant be touched by the aa and wont kill a plane

You perhaps misunderstood what I was reacting to:

As you can see, wasn´t commenting on his CAS mention. (I made enough of commenting on that matter above). And last time I checked I saw no dead plane dropping grenades anywhere

oh shit i did read that wrong sorry bud

Doesn’t always seem to be the case, I’ve gone in on bombing runs, miscalculated the climb and died, but still been accredited with the kills.

and i have seen people crashing, gaining the kills, and few seconds later, the same ammount of kills got " reverted ".

happened the same when i try to chase an enemy bomber, i kill him, but i’m not carefull enough ending up kissin some trees.

as soon as i die, my kill gets taken away because the game consider that as a suicide.

so i guess it works.

but if you and Stra tells otherwise, you should start considering the option to make a bug report about it.

i would personally make it, but again, it never happened to me. ( this does not mean that does not happens though now that you let me think about it )

I’ve said this several times, and I’ll say it again: team killers should be by the game, and quickly. That would solve a lot of problems. Plane suicide and bomb spam are almost non-existent in Lone Fighters, for instance, because nobody wants to get kicked (thereby getting no reward, and wasting their time). Less bomb spam and suiciding idiots are good for everyone.

Maybe cause no ones plays LF.

Here’s an idea: if your flight time is under a minute (or whatever makes sense) and without a reload completed, and you crash, the time to respawn in any squad is increased to 30 seconds or a minute (or whatever makes sense).

This would seriously discourage kamikaze runs and whatever benefit someone would gain from it.
