    If there's anything we've learned from the past year... if we REALLY put the pressure on Gaijin for the crap they refuse to fix in their game, they will attempt to fix most of what we complain about. We need to put nonstop pressure on them for BR decompression, lower player counts, revamped air gameplay and more nuanced maps, and potentially new game modes... because otherwise, nothing will ever be changed. Their motto seems to be little changes combined with shiny new toys to keep the majority of the player base happy so that they never actually have to change much. This needs to stop.

    This is one reason why I wanted the Eurofighter Typhoon to be added to Germany or just a Swiss F-18 Hornet. There is actually a Typhoon variant called Tranche 1 where it only carries AIM-120 and AIM-9, and has Captor-M radar which is just the same as the F-16C radar. But everyone denies and hated my idea.

      Bro the thing with the eurofighter is not the loadout, its that is fking cracked, it will have the best FM in game by far, even the tranche 1 radar would be one of the best, the 30km rage IRIS-T, the DASS system, already comes with ECM's built in the plane, towed radar decoys, 13 pylons with capacity to carry 10 AMRAAMS with 2 sidewinders, a HMD with capabilities to lock targets BEHIND and outside the missile gimbal limit and guide it by DL until the seeker sees the target
      The eurofighter has absolutely no business in this game for now, as it could absolutely destroy every plane with ease

    • @DevinEMILE
      @DevinEMILE 3 місяці тому +4

      Because the Airframe itself would be broken, not the Loadout. It would be like if Before the F14 was added we just added a Gripen or F16 and gave it similar weapons to the other planes. It either would be impossible to balance, or A-historically nerfed until it had stuff that could compete against it added to the game.
      The Dutch Subtree was the answer, should have given france another subtree, then the Dutch F16 could have been added this update to Germany. But nope looks like Germany is in the Britain and Swedish boat of nothing that is balanced could fill that gap so you just suffer for 6-12 months. As before the Gripen was added, Britain's best jet was a F3 Tornado or a Harrier. While Sweden was the Jas37 i believe. For awhile.

If someone wants they can force you to not play the game. Then by the time they've either ran out of missiles, Died or you killed them. You know fly back towards the map to see one or two enemies with the whole team fighting over them. Or you roll up as one of the last remaining teammates against a 5 enemies. Meaning your XP gains are minimal.
      The maps are to small, most of them are flat with zero cover. Anytime i get a EC map i have a good time. But Golan heights is all i get 90% of the time. Cause i cant ban both versions of that map. Plus the small lobbies checkbox gets you a small lobby once in a blue moon.

    5:02 I have to disagree. This is the most fun I’ve had playing top tier since I got it October last year. I think this update is a massive step in the right direction for top tier, and this is the most enjoyable it’s been for me ever. BVR is much more fun than deck hugging and the IRCCM clusterfuck that top tier has been since October, it’s more tactical, and it takes skill. Now before people say, “oH bUt tHesE miSsiLEs aRe bRokEn it’S jUst pOiNt aNd cLiCk”, yes, it does take skill, not to kill, but to stay alive to get more kills. Everyone has a good missile (the R77 is meant for close range not 35 miles stop whining russian mains) and everyone can get a lot of kills, it is simply a matter of if you have good awareness and positioning. It’s not very enjoyable for some, but me and a whole lot of other people are stoked about this update. Remember, this is just my opinion, and I’d to hear more peoples that don’t agree with me, I want to see your reasoning, I want to see both sides of the playing field, not just my own

    I will just comment about the end about the modern jet combat and how it works. In fact it's quite opposite, people who wants these 16v16 and fox three missiles at same time wouldn't have interest into modern jet combat as it's most of time BVR only and usually without shooting down a plane.
    If you want modern jet combat just put them in 4v4 and death from enemy or by crashing = no rewards no matter what you do (to prevent just yolo firing all missiles and getting shot down). You would force teams into teamplay and strategic play which is how you use modern jets. Not just 16v16 mess in middle of the map.
    Would it be realistic? Yes. Would it be boring? Also yes but that is just how air to air combat works with fox one and fox three missiles.
    And how would you win the 4v4 if people would avoid shooting down enemy planes? Just do more objectives than enemy team in the 25 minutes timer.

    Also Gaijin saying that this has good flight characteristics compared to other Phantoms is simply a lie. It is the heaviest Phantom empty, and just has a smaller maximum fuel load. All the other stats are exactly identical to the F-4E in the flight model.
    Its only advantage is weight distribution when loaded with fuel, but I don't think anyone is going to bring max fuel in any of the Phantoms.

    it doesn't get amraam until you reach tier 4 and during the entire time, you are struggling to get kills
    i highly recommend to get the rockets and bomb bases until u get the amraams which will take u quite a while
    then after u get the amraam
    continue to fly low, carry rockets and just keep going at it and use the amraams to get an occasional missile kill
    for maps that don't really allow for terrain masking, recommend to stick to your team and hope for the best
    if this aircraft got gbu's it would make this a pretty nice ground attack aircraft, but it doesnt so dam

    Seek, top tier isn't broken because of the accuracy or inclusion of modern missiles. The game mode needs to adapt. This has been an issue for 10 years and as much as you like to rant and love Jets, I would figure you for somebody who would understand what we are all looking at here.
    No, FOX3s do not need to be nurfed.
    No, multipathing does not need to be re-raised to 100 meters so people can "opt-out" of notching if they wish.
    No, realism does not need to be thrown out so we can all have a fun 'LIL arcady blast.
    And NO, we don't need shortened BR spreads so 13.0s only fight 13.0s and 12.7s only fight 12.7s. . . .
    The REALISTIC game mode needs a restructuring more like simulator now more than ever;
    With a "come & go as you please" attitude toward matches, where time limits and massive team merges are extinct, where your radar knowledge, use, and skill is your ticket to awareness, not your crew skill point investment. With a plethora of playstyles open to you, and big huge maps with 12v12 or higher who've been sweatily fighting for an hour, or a 2v2 tiny little map where people are relaxed, calmly patrolling sections of map in shifts. YOU pick, PLAYERS choose. Play as you like, join a match, start your own, YOU, DO, YOU!

Just because it’s realistic doesn’t mean it’s good for the game. (Spoiler, it’s not realistic due to free height and trees not counting into multipath).

      Stock grinds are as bad now as ever, but I don't see them getting better without a major overhaul to the game mode of RB air itself.

      Additionally, multipath is set to 60m, but trees in War thunder are 75m tall. So effectively, if you’re flying over trees there is no multipath. Trees should be counting as terrain that messes with the missiles, not just the dirt.

    I really liked reading Gaijin's reasoning for the multipath change. Like it's been the way it has been for so long up to now and they're just like "yea it's too good it was made for heli's no planes... nerf. Fire and Forget radar missiles are here :D" Like fr? But it's been the way it has all this time for jets? Alright snail lmao.
    On a serious note: I've enjoyed the change and found myself flying at altitude most games now... once I got the Active's. The obvious caveat: this is probably the worst stock grind ever, combined with using anything within that 13.0 bracket (to grind out your new top tier) that simply doesn't have any of the Active missiles, and semi-actives are practically useless against the Actives. I'd say the ER is still decent simply because of its insane performance but you may just find yourself doing 1 for 1 trades more so than with Sparrows or other Semi's.
    It's extremely double edged. Good for the top top since it kills the ground hugging and creates a more dynamic battle, but awful for the just below top because that is simply their most reliable way to defeat these missiles. I had an Su-27SM hugging the ocean and I was behind him firing AMRAAM's... they were getting multipathed into the water... I had a teammate kill the guy with his own AMRAAM because he was higher altitude and was able to get the top down shot. Not only does the effect kick in at 60m now... but it's also nowhere near as extreme because 60m is the equivalent to what 100m was: That's the point it starts to happen. Basically the maximum strength you can get from it is nowhere near what it was since it only starts kicking in at a much lower altitude... it's effectively 40% weaker.

    I hate the fact that Gaijin balances on individual things a vehicle might have rather than the overall performance of the vehicle. For example, the F-4 in the video is only at its BR due to AMRAAMS. The XM800T is at 7.7 because of the stabilizer and APDS. There are several more vehicles that get balanced based on one or two things and it really makes the game at certain tiers worse. BR Decompression can help, but Gaijin really needs to rethink how the balance vehicles.

    12.3 harriers and j8f already have 2-4 ARH's so it really wouldnt make any difference, yeah playing 11.3 is pretty horrible at the moment with the viggen with f15's f16's and now ARH carriers are pretty common sight. im just gonna play 13.0 in sim now that i got gripen c and f15c grinded and not gonna go below that before they bump up ARH carriers.
