Especially since snail denied ground-only several times years prior. My ideal is Simulator's SP system, Naval's default planes handed to all users in every match, and massive AA/SAM (re)buffs. Then *NOBODY* has an excuse to complain "CAS OP" anymore without first answering why they're refusing to use even one of the intended counters. Any answer along the lines of "but I only like/want to TANK!" becomes solely a problem for the person doing the complaining at that point. They trap themselves in their own stubbornness and thus erase themselves from existence in regards to the CAS debate.

Or just in general at all BRs. Hell, why not seriously try using Sim's SP system in RB?

At best you get one CAS, one Fighter, and then a tank/AA.

Maybe guys (I am the glass is half full guy) Maybe their buffing CAS because their finally going to give the nations that don’t have their 11.7 SPAAs, their 11.7 SPAAs?

[@Organic_Chemistry_Junkie]

Another possibility - they're going to port Simulator's SP system over to RB. All aircraft are first spawn options, which means you can spawn fighters early game if you desire to watch for and kill CAS. It puts the onus on the would-be complainer to solve their "problem" themselves.

that's not how "max break lock time" works. It's literally just track memory mode. It doesn't make missiles "ignore" smoke or buildings or whatever you wanna bring up that breaks seekers locks.

What exactly is 'break lock time'?

[@kaiotie1]

basically when you pop smoke as a ground vehicle, and a guided missile loses lock. within the “break lock time” it will find the lock again if you move or it sees you. example; you pop smoke and it loses its lock. you move out of the smoke, it finds you again. if it cant find/see you, it’ll go to where you WERE. but if it finds/sees you again it will re lock again, and will continue to follow you. basically gaijin have made it so that popping smoke to avoid gbu’s no longer works. the smoke fades in 20s so it will reguide onto you as soon as the smoke clears, or if you move out of the smoke it will re lock cause you can be seen again.

Oh yes, buffs. So what now? I can't play this game since recent update. I mostly play 4.7-7.7 and it's unplayable due to USSR and their Yak-9s/TIS-MA/SU-8 bullcrap with 45mm guns APHE nonsense. They are way too accurate, way too powerful. They can take out ANY tank from the top, that includes mighty slow tanks like T-95/T-28, Tigers, Super Pershings, etc. They are more effective at killing tanks than bombs... Now CAS might get another buff? Great. Time to take a long break from this nonsensical game. Playing CAS is brain dead easy. SPAA has no answer, because of effective range limitations, slow fire rate (in most countries), no lock on systems/guidance unless you play on console, yet planes can easily snipe you out from outside your effective range. I vouch for Gaijin to make Ground only game mode. We shall see how many players prefer this to Ground mode with CAS in it. They won't do it though, because whales would cry they can't get easy kills anymore :/.

More buffs for CAS....... Im so happy i quit WT

[@leafysplays]

They do have a apply all button for the sights. its just for the rank so rank 7 all is an option to save.
