there was that game with 2 IL-20 on the other team, we had only 3 basic Tier 7 ILs. I thought to myself in my Me262. Those bloody is ILs will win the game for that team.
So you focused two IL-20s....in a 262...and failed? Hmm. Right.

I did focused on them when i had the time. they won with superiority with a very close match because most noobs don't understand how to play the counter. It requires another dimension, another axis on the battle graph. Most people would prefer the game to be dumbed down to KILL THE FIGHTERS and that''s it.
Without the current air superiority counter, game would be utter boring. a good IL team now often win the game for his team. It forces the fighters to make some critical decisions. Do I need to take down that IL now? Or should i focused on those fighters up there? During the end game, people with brains will have to juggle with destroying ground targets, waiting, hiding etc.
I don't want to dumb the game down. It's already dumb enough.
But even in this dumb game things aren't as simple as you portray them. If you see a lot of ILs on the enemy team, then sure, you can choose to go after them, but then keep in mind that the enemy fighters will have a numerical superiority against your fighters which is more likely to cause a defeat then a couple of GAA killing grounds. Furthermore, to "go after ILs", you will have to sacrifices all your altitude and in a BnZ plane like the 262 that can be a death sentence.
Also, good IL players such as myself, will not go directly for the closest ground but will be sneaky and try to stay under fighter cover for as long as possible.
I understand what you are talking about though LZ_Mordan. I myself have witnessed a game where 12 of my fighters were all chasing the last enemy fighter whilst completely ignoring the two ILs that were raping our base.
Still, I personally never go after ILs at the start of the battle. First I try to tip the scale in the air fight and only after that I go and kill the ILs.
