  • With the A-10's introduction a couple of patches ago, its main Russian counterpart the Su-25 "Grach" was surely not far behind. A faster, yet less advanced aircraft with less capable weapons and systems, the Su-25 will prove an interesting aircraft to use, but likely a very tough one for Gaijin to balance, at least if previous CAS jets of this type are anything to go by. Actually, I can almost guarantee that this jet, WILL be broken upon its introduction! Let's talk about why...

    • @exo068

      The thing with 4+ gen fighters is that there is no real SPAA counter to them. Nations now use long range SAM System to keep the battlefield clear of aircraft. Sure there are systems that are still in use like the Gepard or the Tunguska but they are extremely outranged by the weapons that modern jet’s carry. You can already see how hard it is to get rid of a good CAS player now imagine how much fun ground RB is with Eurofighters that can carry 6 laser guided 460 kg bombs at once. 4.5 gen may be in the far further but even the Tornado can carry 4 GBU 12s.

    I'll say the same thing about heavy tanks and A-10s, decompression won't solve this. Heavy tanks rely on armor, so the cross section of vehicles that can hurt them, but not casually kill them is just too small. The A-10 (and possibly Su-25 as well) have the same issue with anti-air. You can get the altitude or speed to make yourself a hard target for the radar guided 10.0+ platforms, but mavericks are abusively good against stingers and guns. There's no AA in the game in my opinion that actually has a fair fight against the A-10 to where both sides can reasonably win if played well

      @@vikingsoftomorrow4038 I'm not confident that would be the result. The problem is that BR compression is not symmetrical.

      -
      Except the penultimate BRs (9.3-10.3 in air and 9.0-10.0 in ground) are also the dumping ground for premiums that tend to have the weirdest performance metrics and, thus tend to be the hardest to find a good place for.

      I feel like any decompression would end up in the same place, we'd just be talking about different specific vehicles and BR ranges. This isn't even accounting for the current unused BRs (there are 2 10.3 ground vehicles in the entire game and trying to get air games around 7.0 usually involves at least a minute to minute and a half que times) or vehicles at artificial BRs (the M113 TOW for example is really overtired just because dropping it would mean hitting king tigers with TOWs which, while a pretty fair fight, many would object to. The M41D is basically only at 8.0 because of thermals and laser rangefinder, but is hopelessly awful at that BR). I

    In EC, these strike aircraft are (or were, before all the actual game-breaking bugs and half-assed additions) incredibly useful for pushing the front line and destroying convoys. You could air quake with them, of course. But because they are usually slower or less maneuverable than fighter aircraft, taking the time to take off and seek out enemy planes while putting yourself in a disadvantageous position is not very attractive... Especially not with low endurance in the Su-25's case. Large, dynamic, long-lasting battles passively encourage players to use specialized aircraft properly.

    Would the working of Air Battles to be more in line with ground attack aircraft be a reworking of Air Battles in general or would ground attack have a sepparate game mode? Either way, you wouldn't need to have aircraft have a different BR for AB and GB if AB recognize that attack aircraft are a thing and with some decompression. You would only need one BR that would be reflected in both game modes.

    • @theScottishKoala

      I don’t think it would be any more balanced OR that it should be necessary. The A-10 in air RB will never and SHOULD never be “balanced”, because the only way to balance a super slow aircraft with super deadly missiles in AIR battles, is to try and average out between those two things… that’s what Gaijin did.
      They put a 500-700kph ground slugger at a higher br than the Lightning F.6, but that also means AIM-9Ls at a LOWER br than the F-4C, Mirage IIIC, or even F-104A, and at the SAME br as the damn J35A and MiG-21S!
      Unless air RB is changed into a more RBEC-like game mode where ground attack has its own place just as much as air-to-air fights, dedicated ground attackers just aren’t going to be good in air RB, nor should they be. It’s air RB that’s the whole problem. Attackers just need better stock ordnance and then they can stick to CAS in ground battles entirely

  • @vikingsoftomorrow4038
    @vikingsoftomorrow4038 2 роки тому

    Id say, when it comes to balancing the Strike aircraft, besides the obvious decompression, there needs to be a good rework of ARB. The issue tends to be that in most matches, the Strike aircraft don't have much to do, and what they do have is crammed into one small area making them easy prey to any stock pilots looking for some free RP. The only real way to deal with this is for there to be an EC sized map as we have been seeing, with airspawn for the strike aircraft.
    Now, this would indeed mean separating ARB into two, as there is a good portion of the community that wants the close range skirmishes that most maps offer. This would infact benefit the ARB playerbase as a whole as the skirmishers get their close and quick fights, without being held back by having strike aircraft on the team. The strike aircraft (And also bombers) would get a bit of a calmer flight on bigger maps, where they have chances to hide and to not be targeted as fast due to multiple objectives where they could be.
    Essentially, the battle should be similar to what you would see in DCS, with radar and SAM sites to take out, convoys, ships, battles, etc etc.
    An issue I do see that might appear, is the aircraft possibly getting undertiered due to a false feeling of safety over a general lack of enemy fighters, where that false security gets them killed by jets.
    Thoughts?

      Only at top tier, and only against the very top tier aircraft like F-4E and the new Harrier.
      Su-25 is pure food for a Roland system

    16:00 So basically the same argument that everyone hs been making for 4 years or so. I stopped playing WT after i got the f-14. It made top tier battles a complete joke. I loved the thing but it was far too OP. Every game i played was literally take off get about 1km into the map dump all my pheonix's and then land and reload. Now, take into account i suck but i would get at least 2 easy kills that way. I played because it was hard. You make it that easy and i'm out. But i think gaijn will never change. All they want is money and damn everything else. There will be more players. Humans have a habit of spawning more humans, which means there will always be suckers for gaijn to grift with the promise of historical accuracy, engaging gameplay and thousands of vehicles but those people, like the rest of us, will find that to get anything done you gotta be Elon musk or Bill gates to cover the demands for money that you *have* to comply with. *Premium accounts are required*. A few premium vehicles are also required. And thats just to get research done. let alone make some SL.
    This game is ridiculous and although it will never die. I do now see a lot of people that clearly have denial and addiction issues. Their dealer is gaijin. and their drug is pain and suffering in the name of fun.
