It WAS the top tier for a reason. Gaijin knew that supersonics and missiles are bad for gameplay but they caved and added them anyway, and now 5 years later top tier sucks ass. Go figure....
@@KekusMagnus It would be fine if they didnt add planes with crappy performance with good missiles. They know they cant balance these planes no matter what they do and they still add them and then let them be op for a long time...
@@KekusMagnusI don’t really get this opinion, not about top tier (obviously that’s a mess), but about missiles. Is there really a greater dopamine hit than when (even at lower tier jets) a missile hits your opponent mid-dogfight? Honestly I think missiles are a really fun addition to the game which add a layer of challenge to the game. Obviously 50G overload Fox-3s are not exactly what I’m talking about, but still, in general, I like missiles.
I knew it, so did my friends. We never felt a more balanced combination in competitive aviation games like that. It was also the most fun. Once we saw higher tiers we knew the fun was over
Man, I remember when top tier was Mig-15bis against Sabre F-2. This must have been 8 or 9 years ago now, and there were so few people at top tier, you knew most of your team and enemy team by name, regularly greeting each other, watching 1v1 duels from the sidelines, initiating players new to the jet tier by teaching them the ropes. Laughing at Me-163 players facing sabres. Getting clapped by said Me-163 player. Those were the days. When I got my MiG-15bis, I felt like I had ascended into a roundtable of knighthood brethren.
@@mrcat5508 Ah, you can make fun of me, but you young whippersnappers don't even remember what it's like to face Mig-15s in your BF-109 F-4. (I'm joking...kinda)
Moments like that where you spared the SAAB and he spared you the kill is why we should be playing war thunder. Though I admit I wouldn't have spared him. Grind is eternal.
I remember collaborating of Phly,Baronvongames and few other UA-camrs "BACK IN THE DAY"...must be at least 7-8 years ago playing biplanes vs jets. Good old times
Who remembers good old side takeoff on Korea map? I just wish we have permament event or game mode with only oldschool, WT golden era planes(f86, mig15/17, cl13, hunter)
God, i so miss 9.0 before 1.85.... The days when the Hunter and CL-13 were OP for going just a few KPH faster than anything else. What i wouldn't give to go back to OG air RB top tier
Back then all we needed was the Mig-17F and there would have been perfect balance at top tier. Sadly, it was only added much later when it was useless. We need a "WarThunder Classic"
It was nice because the discrepancies in performance at each Br rating weren't as extreme as they are now. It was absolutely not fun to play jets back then for...what, half the jets in the game at the time even still? 262s were DOA, the Yak jets were DOA, the Volksjet was okay because the FM used to be OP so it survived situations that were impossible, the MiGs were either great or subpar depending on the patch as they were tweaked to be better/worse. The early La jets were fun (La-174/La-15 or whatever) but definitely underperformed for a time, though this was fixed much later on after missiles were added to the game and turned the La jets into live bait. Meteors have always been hit-or-miss, it depends on the model and the Br and its' FM and whether or not Hisparkos are working at the time. The Hunter could do one thing, and that's go fast in a straight line. If you didn't play it like a faster P-51 at a higher br, you died is my understanding. But it absolutely was untouchable in the right hands versus anything else at that Br, for a time, which was only ridiculous because matches could last up to an hour back then. Nowadays they don't have the time to Formula One in the stratosphere for a million years, picking off impatient people climbing up to them or eventually coming back down to annihilate everybody groundpounding. Now that I think about it, the rocket fighters and the Sabres have been the only consistently okay-to-good jets at 7.7+ pre-missiles. So yeah, rose-tinted glasses dude.
@@Supercohboy >262s were DOA only because Gaijin had them at 8.0 for the longest time >Yak yets were DOA completely wrong, the yak-15s/17 were great at punishing props and could dogfight other jets in an uptier.

The Other meteors were good support planes >162 was op nope, it was trash, good at being annoying to superprops but it struggled to kill anything. Other jets totally crushed it >163s were consistently good Wrong, 163s were worse because the average jet player had more experience and knew how to counter them. I distinctly remember the frustration of running after sabers and migs that always refuse to fight me. Today half of them dogfight you and die >Hunters were untouchable The speed difference between hunters, sabers and the Mig-17 was very small. They were not difficult to catch at all, matches would last an hour only when bad players faced a decent hunter pilot I would argue it was more fun before the hunter was added, but the meta didnt shift that much. Either way the gameplay was significantly more engaging, there is no rose tint anywhere
Phly doing some phlying...damn, this feels good. Glad to see you back in the saddle, sir! The positive vibes your videos bring are..something else. Cheers!
Pow: Your average wt player, misses some shots, does some basic manuevers, gets 2 to 3 kills once or twice in 7 games, feels satisfied, good enough. Meanwhile Defyn: Whines about flight characteristics of a plane, don't recommends it, calls it midd at best, proceeds to pull out Mavericks manuevers, devastates enemies, 7 kills on average per match, gets 26 kills in 3 matches, cracks a joke or two, leaves.
It was so nostalgic watching this, it reminded of my favourite phlydaily video from back in the day which featured the F2 sabre and even had me in it. I can't believe how long I've been watching your videos and also playing war thunder, it was over 7 years ago I believe!
I was fortunate to be playing in the era where top tier was the f86f and mig 15bis. Those planes fighting over korea was a match made in heaven, it was so fun. Really its the golden era of war thunder to me
13:00 "WHAAAaaaAAAt The FA****" had me laughing so much I went back and watched it several times I can only imagine what the rest of you'r family was thinking XD
Damn man this brings memories. I remember getting into war thubder eatching your sabre and mig15/17 dogfighting videos. Now those days are gone....oh and the F2HIV. 😂
*During Korea the navy's kill ratio was 12:1, we shot down 12 of their jets for one of ours, in Vietnam that ratio became 3:1 as our pilots became dependent upon missiles, and lost some of their dogfighting skills* *Jester*
13:15 Oh man ! I was so happy when you got surprised I was like PLEASE!!! He has to make a video about the 8.3 Vautour. The Radar missile but also the NORD they are quite effective if you hook the controls to a joystick controller, like people just dont expect them most of the time and try to flare X)
You're definitely not alone.They at some point must have changed the mig-15's thrust to weight characteristics. Using the mig 15BIS a couple of weeks ago, I was able to outstall climb a mig 21.
@ollilaine6763 That would make sense, but considering he came in faster than I did, around 700kph from what it said in replay, and we went straight into vertical without a turn fight first I don't have any other explanations
@@sushiman3817 What matters is your and his speed when both are flying up. It's possible to fly a lot faster and then bleed all the speed with small turns while going up.
@@sushiman3817 If both are climbing straight up with the same speed, the MiG-21 should retain more speed due to the T/W ratio. It however is likely both are doing some maneuvers while going up and the delta wing and wing loading of the MiG-21 don't help with that. If both were at a level flight and then both pulled up, that simple pulling up could nullify any speed advantage the MiG-21 had.
Lmao dude I still remember watching videos of you playing Sabres in Sim battles back when I was in college. You'd apologize every few minutes for not talking but explained that you were just dot-hunting and couldn't talk much. Weird how time has passed.
Reminds me of the good ol' days of F-86 vs prop planes and the time I got to fly F-86s with you and a few others. RIP old rank/tier based matchmaking and low population forcing jets into reserve games
the CL-13B Mk 6 also has the best engine thrust of any sabre in the game i think. its like almost as good as an early generation afterburning jet engine
BRING BACK PLAYER OPERATED DRONE ARTILLERY! (Day 22) You can play the BMP-3/BMD-4 if you are solo as the HE shell only goes 250m/s If your playing with Odd or others I beg of you to have one player in a drone, and the other in a Sturmtiger, as it would be hilarious to get a 3km kill with a sturmtiger rocket. The player operated artillery video you made ages ago has since been my favorite on the channel.
Love how pretty much every nation had their Korean War era jets moved down… meanwhile France is still sitting in solid F-104 territory with theirs (Mystere IIC)
Dear Phly, a better Sabre to use with only a .3 br change is the f86 f25. Same armament bit worse at turning but has much better acceleration and energy retention
man I was just playing the 8.0 sabre yesterday and it just has constant uptiers full of afterburning jets with missiles that force you to turn and bleed all your speed allowing their afterburners to easily catch up with you its just so painful
You should do a lot more jet content. Showcasing other jet fighters of other countries 8.3-12.7 what the pros and cons of that line and what top tier jets you recomend people working towards. I hate grinding 7-8 ranks of a countries tech tree to realize i just grinded the inferior top tier plane. Currently really interested in the su 27 vs mig 29 lines. Not sure which tree to grind down. Also a review of all the gripens for comparrison. Like i want to do another country but dont know what one to do. Then the second question becomes what tree line do i want to go down once i select a country. I am really interested in italy as it has all the best planes from other nations at top tier it seems. While giving you fun variety. Also the russians for the great top tier planes although Italy has a mig 29 so if it is as enjoyable as the flanker then i would rather just play Italy as it has the f16, mig 29, and gripen. Instead of grinding the Russian and Swedish trees respectfully. But also heard if you grind for the gripen it might be better to do Britain? With how shitty britain is is it even worth it to go down that line? Lots of different content material there. Highly doubt im the only one with these questions. I spent years dealing with prop fighters. Pretty sick of that content just beating a dead horse.
I wish there was a separation in air RB between WW2, Korea, Nam, etc. There's now multiple BR compression tiers and its an extremely negative experience to try and navigate as a new player, there's obviously prop to jet, then subsonic to supersonic, there's the varying BR spreads of radar missiles and now we're going to have Fox-3s effectively creating another BR compression at top tier where some planes have them and others dont.

Then the second question becomes what tree line do i want to go down once i select a country. I am really interested in italy as it has all the best planes from other nations at top tier it seems. While giving you fun variety. Also the russians for the great top tier planes although Italy has a mig 29 so if it is as enjoyable as the flanker then i would rather just play Italy as it has the f16, mig 29, and gripen. Instead of grinding the Russian and Swedish trees respectfully. But also heard if you grind for the gripen it might be better to do Britain? With how shitty britain is is it even worth it to go down that line? Lots of different content material there. Highly doubt im the only one with these questions. I spent years dealing with prop fighters. Pretty sick of that content just beating a dead horse.
I wish there was a separation in air RB between WW2, Korea, Nam, etc.
There's now multiple BR compression tiers and its an extremely negative experience to try and navigate as a new player, there's obviously prop to jet, then subsonic to supersonic, there's the varying BR spreads of radar missiles and now we're going to have Fox-3s effectively creating another BR compression at top tier where some planes have them and others dont.
And that's why they created the top gun school 😂
