Ships vs tanks vs Planes?

[MagyTheMage]

Is there any mode like this?

If not, i think it would be intresting,

Dont know exactly how it would be done, or balanced...especially dont know how the tanks would fair against the bigger boats like the light cruisers

But i think it would be pretty fun, what do you think?

Not currently, though a total combined arms mode has been discussed before and would be cool.

would be hard for tanks to be effective unless you get a bmp or sume othertanks such as that

[RedSector73]

Arma3 kinda has it

I mean; i could see the tanks having to be a bit more crafty about their engagments and it could work

Like, snipe the crew, the ammo, the fuel, etc

Maybe that could work

I don’t think tanks and ships would really engage. Bigger ships would have to use direct fire, otherwise, tanks would just have to deal with river boats. Ships vs Tanks isn’t an issue.

It would surely depend on hows the.map designed for sure

Maybe you could have small riverways for smaller boats only, those beeing pretty normal, with some bridges here and there, and have some bigger rivers for the bigger boats but have their total map coverage be smaller at best, just to balance out their power

Given that cruisers now have 9-15 5-6 inch guns, no thanks. It would be so easy to bombard caps from well beyond ground fire range, completely one-sided.

Current system of tanks + planes and ships + planes works fine and makes the most sense imo.

I could imagine that it could be annoying, but, i belive that, you could potentially play with this "big rivers" location, you could always have the big river near the point be like right behind a mountain or something, and the only time they can shoot would be basically in close range in a place where the tanks could be



Just mere speculation on my part tho, im very new to the game but thought id throw the suggestion therr

[ulzgoroth]

I really cannot imagine a way for naval units and tanks to interact that wouldn't be really stupid.

It's true that river boats meeting tanks makes a certain amount of sense. But there's a couple problems with that. First, only the soviets really have river boats. And second, the river boats would be terrible for fighting tanks. Oh, and for a bonus, the highest BR river boats are BR 3.0.

They said no to it becasue too much different terrain to create for a single map

Unless literally on the coastline though, we’re talking about indirect fire. It would be the same as AI artillery practically, except for possibly even less accurate (but more intensive) and a ship instead of a tank would get credit for any kills. Ships vs tanks isn’t a problem, ships are not accurate enough to kill single armoured vehicles, unless you’re talking about say lighter vehicles right on the coastline.

Tbf, they also said no to
>air to air missiles
>afterburners
>supersonic Jets
>jets after 1953
>tanks after 1953
>modern tanks
>missiles
>modern helicopters
>M1A1 Abrams
and more.

I don’t listen to them anymore when they say “no”.

Mechanic is one thing when you have to balance 3 different map aspect with 2 incompatible gameplay type on map wich would be inherently one sided or totaly stale out as tank can't damage ships and ships can't go on land

I would imagine having all vehicles together in 1 game mode would be nigh on unplayable. Everyone cries about the current 'arty' spam in game, now imagine a mode where players can spam arty constantly from their DD/Cruisers etc. Sure it could be done, but it would need serious balancing to not make the boats OP asf in that mode. Maybe restrict the number of DD/Cruisers to 1 per team etc?

[ScienceDiscoverer]

I second this idea. I really like to see full combined arms mode, this is what this game is about and why it's better than it's competitors.

OK, all the haters of this idea here. You know what you are doing? You are encouraging lazy devs to be even more lazy! Don't be like this. Think. Think how this can be implemented not just automatically discard the idea as "impossible".

A few things that can be done:
1. Make so that cruisers/battleships can't just AFK spam tank capture points with main caliber. They will have to deal with enemy ships/planes first or risk being rekt while trying to "gg ez" tanks from 10 km.
2. Make one of the point in the middle of a river where only small boats, mb frigates can enter. This point can be only captured by ships or even swimming tanks (one way to make at least some use of them). Ships will have to withstand tank fire if they'll gonna try capture point. Tanks will have some use for HE shells finally.
3. Planes will have to decide what has bigger priority - counter enemy ships or tanks, depending on situation.
4. And disable players to have multiple units types in this mode. Players must only queue with tanks/boats/planes and will only use them entire match.
5. ETC.

Cmon, devs, I know you can do this!! This is my dream mode!

For starters great work on the 2 year necro and not fully reading my reply about it needing to be balanced properly if they did it...but we're all 'h8rs' amirite......smh,

1.You obviously don't get how much firepower could be sent downrange by 1 ship, now imagine being a tanker on the receiving end of nearly ENDLESS arty barrages. Sure you could get 'rekt' by boats and aircraft but its a mixed battle so the changes of that are even slimmer than normal naval battles.
2. Thats fine, no issues with that other than the lack of amphibious ground vehicles in game eg some nations have none. And good luck to the few that are amphibious being able to do damage to a DD lmao...
3. This is down to wtf the players wants to do, more often than not it's a revenge suicide bomb anyway....
4. Gaijin are dead set against splitting the player base up more than it already is, and considering naval is pretty dead as is (most matches have bots in at ALL br's...smh)
