CAS is a total joke in Ground RB. I nearly always lose more Vehicles to CAS that other ground vehicles. Not only do you have to endure the revenge bombing but the constant spawn bombing and strafing is ridiculous!! They should put AI controlled AA around spawn points at least! Also make it far more expensive to spawn a plane and up the repair costs in ground RB.
@@robertharris6092 Apparently you have no idea what are u talking about. Go and watch nuclear weapon shockwave testing on armored vehicles. And 279 is designed to withstand shockwave without flipping.
It doesn't make any sense. A direct hit vaporizes the armour plate, nothing can withstand 134 kg of TNT. It's like being hit by a battleship's main armament, except slightly smaller In real life it can probably melt the tank even without a direct hit, 134 kg of TNT isn't a joke mate, it's huge enough to probably destroy the building you're in right now in one shot. A shockwave isn't like a heat wave, or a direct hit. The heat alone would probably soften the metal enough to be punched by the significant splinters the round explodes into.
Hey Dollar, your likelihood of getting bombed would go down drastically if you had a friend in a squad, in a fighter giving you cover from the air. Kinda like a guardian angel of sorts!
CAS.....the reason non prem account players do not respawn...4 kills needed to cover one tank its repair costs...well, GG gaijin...and those sweaty boys and girls, dont be sour to those who dont even spawn in nonstop full uptiers.
Truely suffering from success in ground rb, nothing like a cas bomb that you have no way of stopping killing you either for revenge or just doing too well.
Dollar, what a pity, lately the snail is being shit with the "invisible ammunition" ballistics, and if you are a player from the Russian nation, you have power over the entire game, because the advantage that the game gives to such is incredible and ridiculous to a certain point, Oh and thanks for annihilating those "cancer" players who kill them the first time and take a plane to annoy the games, Another negative thing is that there is no control whatsoever, And excellent video bro, Those sublime and unique editions! 🙌👏
I came back to war thunder only to unlock the sturmtiger, and then stopped playing right after. Seeing how planes still are makes me want to continue not playing. 😐
i don't understand CAS players, they must be bored out of their skulls, it's so bloody easy cheesy. when i was doing that one AI battle for the sturmtiger's special camo it was like... semi-arcade, so you could enter a plane from your tank. i selected the plane after getting 8 kills and while the plane spawn timer was counting down i said to myself "wait shit i have no idea how to fly", then one minute later after bombing a column of tanks "it's THAT easy?". it's honestly disgusting that planes are allowed in ground battles at all.
Thats why I take the ME-162 at that BR for germany, if you know how to play it you can get 3-6 air kills before having to go back to the airfield to reload
its always amazing how youre able to count the seconds between killing an american tank and a plane spawning and coming your direction. ground rb everyone
This video shows clearly why I left War Thunder for the moment (still love your videos doe), sometimes you login and say to yourself "Man, I want some tank on tank action" and you are welcomed by spawn camping planes and helis, on GROUND BATTLES. They should at least add some invincible AAs to spawns, and SAMs for higher tiers, raise their spawn/repair costs, allow them only on later stages of the battle or remove planes from ground battles entirely.
I remember a time when only a perfectly placed bomb or a direct hit from a rocket that also had to pass the penetration check actually killed a tank with decent armor. Now, even guns kill crew and set tanks on fire, from 1 km away, as if there is absolutely no bullet drop or kinetic loss whatsoever.
The thing is there was a simulation battle mode back in the day where there was no planes. Gaijin is one of the few studio in the world that delete the good things of his game for a more casual experience
I did not notice the difference from the last video. Still same inaccuracy. Unless they changed it in past few day? And it's very possible, the problem is you get bomb when you do good
@@DOLLARplays it was a bug fix update earlier in the past week adding in 50m intervals for rangefinding. Previously the intervals were 100m, making you miss almost every shot. With 50m intervals you still get some inconsistencies (like if the target is 125m away you will range 150m), but generally the gap is smaller now and I've been doing better. In my experience. Strangely enough, below 100m it's accurate down to the very meter. I've ranged 69m before and so on.
Solution 1: Remove CAS entirely or add a CAS free mode. Solution 2: Keep CAS (gross) but nerf it. Making it so it requires actual skill and a functioning brain to use. The planes will use simulator or realistic controls instead of arcade. Bonus: Anyone getting in a certain radius of the spawn zone will have a 3 second timer before they detonate, if they go near it again to try and spawn camp, it's an immediate detonation, repair costs are doubled and your earnings are slashed in half for that match. This is coming from someone who was on a team getting spawn camped hard core. Half of the enemy team just lounged around out spawn. Hell, why not, for 5 more matches you will be branded as a camper and anyone can TK you without penalty, hell they should be rewarded too as you count as an enemy.
Or make there be a limit to how many planes can be up at once, make the repair cost higher or even just make it require more sp.I do hate it immeasurably I don’t even play air I just play ground but cas is part of the game but it’s way to easy to use
Not only the repair cost, but planes should be 1000 SP minimum, so that they work for the plane not just cap with a fast tank and then kill half of the team with a plane
Dang love how Dollar became an unhinged AA operator. So satisfying watching those planes burn. Also, the rarity of SPAA in German team really is something.
I've done some calculations using wikipedias intel about the Sturmtiger. It had a V12 Gasoline engine with 700hp and a capacity of 23 litres. Using its 534 litre tank, it was able to drive 120 kilometers on the road or 85 kilometers in heavier terrain. The very economic Sturmtiger thereby consumend an astonishing 445litres/100kilometers (0,53 USMpg) in eco mode and 628litres/100kilometers (0,37 USMpg) in sports mode. Just thought I'd let you know.
The Mighty Sturmtiger needs to a posse of SPAA and some escorting fighters. Only then can you readily achieve 10 kills without allied sky cancer ruining your fun. Wonderful video DOLLAR.
When your enemies cling to the ground, you shall be the sword that pierces their defences. When the cowards flee to the skies, you shall be the arrow to lay them low! Good video as always!
Love me some Big Splody Bois. 11:43, One thing I like about WoT is status affects because it means that non-pens might still be useful. Imagine just chilling in your tank and almost 300 lbs of TNT goes off right next to you.
Nothing is more satisfying than seeing dollar absolutely destroy CAS players. I also wanted to ask, could I use your voice for a future video? Just a small clip like "did you angle today"
Love the Sturmtiger videos. Some days I just log into war thunder and play only SPAA. It's pretty relaxing gameplay, honestly, especially at ranks 2-4.
to be honest, they need to x3-5 costs of planes in ground RB.. just look what Drones are doing to ground atm.. so people will think twice about taking there KA50 - MIG27k F5E or all those suicide bombers.
Hell yesss ! And even a speed kill frenzy of you showing off your awesome aa skills ! (yes yes i know, edit and 200+ game video, but who gives a frick !!) cool tunes and awesome shooting tru all upload ! Did it take as long to upload to youtube as the reload in the Sturm mørser 🤔 Any way, thanx for super video upload 🤩
