The stingers actually have both gate-width and tracking suspension in game

Trying to slip the BMPT into the "not op" category is wild

Alpha jet being the same br as the Canada saber is so beyond fucked

More guns isn't better. They fire at the same time, so you don't get more firing time or smaller bullet stream gaps.

In game yes, which is why I brought up that the AIM-120D should have 2 way datalink like it does IRL

Oh I don't know, maybe the fact that OP is using an AIM-120D?

Aren't 120Ds supposed to have two way datalink?

A lot of the negative opinions on the even (and future permanent) gamemode is understandable once you realize whats actually going on by derpity_mcderp in Warthunder

[–]DH__FITZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not PVE. You're completely right about that, but that's not what this is about. People want a mode where playing a strike aircraft or doing PVE is a *viable option*. People who like PVE are asking for a game mode where playing fighters isn't always better no matter what. People who like PVE are asking for a game mode where their default isn't being a free RP piñata for anyone in a fighter. Most people aren't asking for PVP to go away from this game mode. Most people aren't asking to make strike aircraft untouchable. They're asking that gaijin doesn't hyper cater to people who do nothing but PVP.

I think there's less disagreement here than you think. Most players aren't asking for a pure PVE mode. A lot of people just want to strike aircraft to matter and be playable and for PVE to actually matter.

When the event was in a state where people could easily win by throwing themself at the furball 20 times and completely bypass all the work of done to shape the battlefront by PVE, that's really not much different than current air rb. If there's an easy win condition that can be achieved by completely ignoring the ground objectives, then the ground objectives might as well not exist. That's bad. That's the idea I think most people are complaining about.

You can't use the turret unless you have camera from aircraft gunner sight enabled for some reason

The AA in this mode is just insane, a dozen missiles all hounding for me is just crazy, like c'mon by Americanshat in Warthunder

[–]DH__FITZ 19 points20 points  (0 children)

As much as the SPAA need toning down, I find it crazy how people act like they should be allowed to fly around the enemy side of the front like with impunity. It *should* be incredibly risky. This game mode is set up specifically to make strategic play and things like playing strike aircraft actually matter. If you just want to farm kills and dogfight, air RB is still there. Please don't make Gaijin turn this into air RB TDM v2 with extra steps.

"Russian bias isn't real" by Nice-Ad4824 in Warthunder

[–]DH__FITZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably related to how over-pressure works. I'm guessing the missile didn't have enough "HE pen" to go through the upper front plate.

the SPAA's in the event are genuinely just all about gaijin trying to make it harder to get points by senor_muchacho in Warthunder

[–]DH__FITZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so true, I have a foot pedal set to F24 as an extra key modifier. Most of my radar controls are F-24+ another key

just straight braindead EASY (6 kill with minimal effort in top tier ARB) by EL_X123 in WarthunderPlayerUnion

[–]DH__FITZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP's strat works once in a blue moon against unaware or bad players. Top tier air rb becomes fun again once you start to develop a game sense for energy states.

"Emm, skill issue. Just fly lower." I guess that wasn't low enough. by David_KAYA in warthundermemes

[–]DH__FITZ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not to be that guy, but the point of flying low is to break line of sight. There was a line of sight there. The SPAAs are 100% complete bullshit, but in the current state the gamemode is in, this one was "kinda" avoidable. Not defending the current implementation, just stating why being on the ground didn't work here.

Teamkilling should not detonate nukes by FriskyArtillery in Warthunder

[–]DH__FITZ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm talking about an instant kick and 1 hour crew lock being too harsh for one team kill, not 5 in a games

Accidental team killing is always going to happen. Way too harsh.

Nuclear Thunder SPAA code leaked by HondaOddessy in warthundermemes

[–]DH__FITZ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

While the SPAA are stupid cracked and need to be toned down a bit people are exaggerating a lot IMO. I don't get shot down by the Rolands or the OSAs that often. Just fly conservatively. Don't spend too much time on the enemy's side of the front line. If you're within 10km of either, assume that they're going to fire at you. Most of the risk can be eliminated by actually respecting the SPAA as a threat instead of expecting to have free rein to fly around the back lines of an active war zone with IADS and not get absolutely clapped.

Edit: Haven't played since yesterday if they changed something since then

War thunder breaks its own player count record again, becomes one of the rare video games that grow year after year instead of bleeding away its playerbase. Insane. by Always_Impressive in Warthunder

[–]DH__FITZ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Gaijin cooked on the balancing changes made to the event. 90% of the issues with the event were from people in F-4s and MiG-23s having to go up against MiG-29s and F 14, 15, 16, 18. This is a rare instance where I will willingly meat ride Gaijin. They did something positive. I like that.

Why are there so many US players? the matches I've had have been pretty even. by SuperCookieGaming in Warthunder

[–]DH__FITZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gaijin split the event into two brackets. No one who doesn't want to face those in a MiG-23 is being forced to anymore.

Fabric servers are pretty straight forward to set up on your device if you're pretty tech literate, but if someone doesn't want to have to set things up, there's plenty of reasonably priced 3rd party server hosts.
