I’m going to keep asking, because I think it could really make a difference. Would you consider dedicating a video a week to playing a proper lineup? A lot of new players are introduced to the game through your videos, and the “tank of the day” style gives them the impression that they should only have one vehicle and maybe a plane. Showing them how to build a lineup and bringing more than one ground vehicle might help to get players to stay in a match for longer than their first death.

[@alexey_chekhovich]

That’s such an under appreciated comment. You are telling exactly what needs to be done by most of the KZbinrs of WT. This old approach of “single vehicle video” must be gone already, huge part of the skill ceiling in the game is about building a right deck of vehicles, having all roles covered, etc. New players must learn that to be efficient and not drag the team down. Having a dedicated videos about that is such a great idea.

[@utha2665]

The problem with that is Odd lasts a whole match, usually in just one tank.

One unique aircraft that I'd love to see in the game is what is called the "Messerspit". A Spitfire Mk. V that was captured on the Channel Islands by the Germans, later taken to Germany for testing, then tested with the same engine and frontal nose cone from the Bf-109.

You should do a one shot challenge. A tank with solid shot and you can only shoot each tank once. Awesome video

[@GhostoftheSnow271]

One counter argument I see to removing CAS from GRB is that “it’s realistic for planes to kill tanks” it’s also realistic for an infantry regiment to accompany them. You want to add bazooka troops too?

Much as I hate cas, high speed low level bombing is exactly what the buccaneer was designed for. I have a certain fondness for the aircraft as I live not far from where they were designed and built. The Yorkshire Air Museum (near York) have two on display and they are impressive besties up close.

[@marcosmorais4085]

Exactly no skill or honor whatsoever. I respect an effective CAS player though cause they actually help the team and are strategic. The suicide revenge bombs should be punishable somehow

[@asabatonlessarmour4372]

Skilled CAS player's are rare these days. You more likely to get killed by suicide bombers these days and are usually revenge bombers.

[@marcosmorais4085]

@@asabatonlessarmour4372I agree and unfortunately that leaves empty teams 30 seconds in cause people waste all their sp on their plane then can’t respawn and help their team. When I play cas I also target any enemy planes and keep sky’s clear cause that’s just as important. People w planes usually either revenge bomb or just kill the first thing they see which isn’t very helpful. Good pilots know that using strategic cas to save teammates and defend objectives can win games

[@marcosmorais4085]

I feel like most people don’t actually hate cas they just hate revenge bombers but they associate that with cas. Honestly most people that complain about cas also take no steps to counter it. They get upset when they can’t do anything to a plane when they’re in a tank destroyer then claim planes are op.
