There are just two types of players in the world: Pilots and Targets

This is not just RB this is the Ground forces experience.

as some people have said before, "ground RB is just air RB with player controlled ground targets"

Anyone else notice you become a bomb magnet when you put a booster on? I swear Gaijin puts AI In the match, or uses the force to guide them right into me

This wouldn't be such a problem if the R3 players actually looked up from time to time.

And then there are the people in the forums who say: "JuSt PlAy Aa".

Cas is cancer. I want a tank only mode

Someone once said “Flying planes in ground RB is for people who can’t handle Air RB”

One of the reasons why I dont play realistic, just activated +500% boosters and shooted down 11 planes with Shturm-S (got 165.000 SL and 10.000 RP in arcade lol)

As soon as you open up with AA, you're advertising your position to every player on the map, ground or air. You're then the easiest, most obvious target.
If there are 2 planes up, and one of the "pilots" has half a brain they just wait and watch for the spaa to target another plane and then strafe. You only need MG's to kill most SPAA, they're slow (even the R3 is slow compared to planes) and can only move in 2 dimensions that have a fair amount of obstacles, can only see a relatively small part of the map and while you're running around like a headless chicken dodging planes, you can't be looking out or avoiding ground threats.

Planes can move in 3 dimensions, are fast, get to spawn within seconds of being selected from the lineup and start in the air, at full speed and know exactly where you are, as the ground vehicles are locked into small "battle" zones, where everyone knows cap points and spawn points (the favourite place to bomb). At least they should all be required to "scramble" from an airfield, which should be at least half as far away again.

They somehow can continue to bomb/rocket/strafe even after the game declares them "dead" but a ground vehicle more often than not sees the round they fired *before* being hit just disappear into the ether. When a plane heads back to the airfield, it's protected by the AI airfield defenses. Ground vehicles become a bigger, more obvious target when re-arming or trying to defend a cap.

If you crash immediately after taking out a ground vehicle (by accident, or the much more likely deliberate "suicide" attack) then you shouldn't be awarded anything for the "kill". Ground vehicle "kills" by a plane should only get half the reward that a ground vehicle would get for that same kill. Repair/re-arming costs for planes should be increased in ground battles.

Even high altitude "strategic" bombers like the PE8 become CAS in ground forces, never used such a way in reality. But then again, very little is "realistic" in this game.

Every "update" introduces more and more benefits to CAS in "ground" forces, it's almost like Gaijin realise that air battles are absolute boring crap and have decided to make "ground" forces their flight simulator. I can't blame people for preferring to fly in ground battles, trouble is, there will eventually be no-one on the ground apart from those accruing spawn points to get into a plane. So ground battles will become as boring and predictable as air battles (probably already are, TBH) So I guess that leaves Naval? Riiiight.. at least the ships have a chance of defending themselves I guess. But that mode is really just a more arcade version of WoWs

Nearly all SPAA in the game is far more useful in an anti tank role anyway, it's where you see it used the most.

To everyone saying "Just play SPAA" I was in my Italian Wirblewind, shot down 5 aircraft in 2 minutes and still got bombed. They need to limit how many aircraft can be up at once.

"just use spaa bro" Also I love how air battles are the only one where other vehicles aren't allowed, but naval and ground have to be told "deal with it"
