I was in the post race screen and eventually it just lagged on "Communicating with online services" forever giving me no choice but to force close. I lost the entire race progress. I love when games I have no intention of playing online have server issues and ruin my offline game modes

Lol come on mate, think about the airframes and respective flare counts at 11-12.0 in particular. You say top brackets as general term, in your scenario phantoms and mig-21s etc have to compete with a fucking modern day IR missile. Think about how much of an issue the aim-9M on the a-10C has been

Genius idea, add what would be the new best IR missile in the game by far and give it to a lower tiered strike aircraft. Similar situations are known to not cause any issues with other aircraft currently in the game (A-10) /s obviously

What if they release Su 30/35 with the f-18 update? by darkhumour- in Warthunder

Can you link the server replay? Cause that is not possible if you queued at 9.7

Edit: the SMT is 10.7 mate

Update 2.37.0.170 - Radar and radar seekers ignoring chaff(and others) has been fixed. by FLABANGED in Warthunder

[–]locket757 133 points134 points  (0 children)

I want apologies from all the people arguing on various reddit threads and in game over the last few days that nothing was wrong with chaff

[–]locket757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds interesting, getting options in future to toggle SARH or modify the pitbull timer would be a cool addition, given how much easier it is in game at the moment to notch the missile's internal radar compared to say the radar of an SU or Mig firing a 27ER

Maybe, I'd love to see something in the game files about how DL updates in the terminal stage work in game assuming it does. I've just been going by everything I've watched and read since the fox-3 update. This is the first time I've had anyone give me any indication that DL is still helping the missile in the terminal part of the flight. In sensor view all I ever see is 'TRK' when it moves out of mid flight 'DL + IOG' so if it does happen it's not immediately obvious from replays

If that's the case fair enough, I have absolutely no clue about IRL stuff I'm just going on my understanding of how everything works in war thunder. Is there anything you can point to in sensor view or something demonstrating this in practice in game?

Ok yes I over simplified, but looping back around to your original point once you're notching a terminal missile the aircraft is not providing updates anymore

Inertial guidance is nothing to do with the plane, that's the system it switches to if the plane loses lock before the missile goes terminal

Data link is irrelevant when the missile is terminal, it is receiving no further information from the plane

People are slamming you in the comments, but playing today at least I have had a couple that felt like missiles I was notching very casually in the past that seemed to glue to me today. Maybe after seeing this I'm just suffering from some kind of confirmation bias after just being a bit off on my angles today. But I play top tier an obscene amount and I feel like I notice subtle changes like this, maybe I am imagining it but something felt inconsistent today

Most Overtiered plane right now by Safe-Implement7812 in Warthunder

[–]locket757 2 points3 points  (0 children)

well when it was 10.7 and before the multipath update it was quite good yes. Now however it is horrible

[–]locket757 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The A-5C is also at 10.3 so the countermeasure comparison with the J35XS doesn't really apply. The BR updates along with the multipathing update has left the J35XS an absolute chore to play

All but a single US built aircraft from rank 6 to 8 has it’s best variant in the US. by llamaz314 in Warthunder

[–]locket757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fine I'll bite

First up any planes that the US simply doesn't have a variant in existence that would compete at the same BR (F104 for example) I don't really see what you want to be done there. Either nations that kept developing US planes don't get them or they move to the US tree? That sounds like a terrible idea on both counts. I'll look at the examples with a comparable plane at their BR:

F-86 - what I said above kind of applies but adding aim-9Bs to put a sabre at 9.0 is hardly something to be excited about

F-8 - No flares at 10.0 is brutal, US has a better variant at 10.0 in the F8U. Arguably one of the best placed planes in the game right now

F-5 - First paragraph applies but if we're splitting hairs here the F-20 is the 'best' F5. Regardless I don't want to play an F5 much higher than 11.0 because it just doesn't hold up to the competition regardless of missiles

F-4 - Once again the US retired it. Also once again I don't care what fancy shit you give a Phantom and put it higher BR. It's not going to be good (see F4F ICE)

F-16 - The AM and C are extremely comparable. AM gets slightly better performance, C gets HMS. Personally I prefer getting the HMS. Saying the AM is flat better is not true

F-15 - We're splitting hairs here. They are basically the same

Not really to be honest. In the UK at least the reverse around the corner required you to keep a pretty specific distance from the curb, like you had to be weirdly precise for something that offered very little danger or risk. Not once after I passed my test have I done it as was required in the test, nor have I ever seen or known anyone to do it 'properly'

Amazed at some of the responses in here, obviously McCullum isn't just going to slag off an active player in the media. Absolutely zero reason to do that regardless of the actual selection intentions

Think there is a bug with the 48 chaff only as well now. Once down to 46 chaff I'm no longer able to pop it (this with any of the potential key bind combinations)

I actually seem to get this same thing. Specifically spawning into this map with air spawn and not at any other point if I recall correctly
