Assault 'players' there to do the minimum they think they need to get the booster.

You can sometimes tell before reaching the first round.  They enter late, go the wrong way longer and generally just hang back (especially obvious with mach 2 jets).  At some point, they just sort of quit en masse without actually leaving.  Just sort of hanging out near the base while new bombers stream in.  Rats pressing the bar, waiting around for a food pellet.

 

Simple proposal:  Booster awards for only matches that reach at least 20+ minutes.  Let see 'em try to loiter till then.

Or get rid of the booster for all but wins.

Assault Air Arcade.    Sometimes I have no choice but to do the minimum.

Ex.   1st plane spawn, one guy kills all 10 planes in the group.    Tells me he obviously doesn't need teammates......

So I simply fly high and wait for Artillery to spawn.    He's got this.....

Honestly wish they could replace assault air with something like the Heli EC mode.  Would also give bombers something to do other than torment RB players.

Well, going the wrong way is usually the best approach. Many times playing assault is like how kids play football/soccer, they all run for the ball. While in air assault you need to defend the base, so it is better for the team if like 2-3 players fly in the other direction to pick up the next wave and start killing that earlier.

Stupid question, but why would anyone play Jets in Air Assault Arcade?  

By that point you got every aircraft in your hangar Rank IV and below - just play one of them?

6.7 to infinity should make people reconsider lifes choices - you'd think.

Not because you can't handle inifinity, but because you are relying on your teammates to be able to?

some of us play jets in air assault arcade so we can grind vital mods without being clapped for not having them
