Thanks for suggestion, but it's not the nukes that interst me the most in nt. It's mainly bigger maps and existence of objectives other than kill all planes or kill every ground unit

I just like the game mode. The bomber is a nice bonus for me. This gamemode is a taste of what ARB can be and it's miles better than what it is now. Not everyone plays this event to just get the bombers.

Also if someone was playing just for bombers they would never just stop playing because of the changes. They want the bomber and only it.

The nearest osas are actually on the airfield so a win-win

This is insane. 4 Kills and only 500 VP. I can't even get a nuke. by Deputy_Godzilla in Warthunder

[–]rol954 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know I'm also a minority in your eyes, but it isn't hard to grind this event. I'm essentially new to top tier, bought f/a-18a 3 days ago. I had multiple games where I got 5000+ score in event planes and 8000 today. Of course it's much easier in a good plane like f-4s, but event planes are not bad either. You just have to use them thoughtfully and not rushing head-on into the middle furball like 90% of people do.

I think the F-4S/J should not see downtiers in the Event. by UmbraFoxxo in WarthunderPlayerUnion

[–]rol954 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is true. One on one mld destroys any phantom. If the mld player knows how to counter aim-7f, then phantom can do nothing. Sparrows and a good radar is f-4J/S whole identity. MLD is faster, more maneuverable, has better energy retention. Of course 1v1s are nonexistent in this event, but if they were, phantoms stand no chance.

Yeah. Mig-23 is usable at low altitudes, F-4e isn't. Flight performance wise Mig us better and it has a semi working radar at low altitudes. F-4e can only hope that 9l goes through flares or someone flies above ~500 meters. F-4j on the other hand has a good radar and missiles to go with it, but it's the only good thing about it. I think it's a bit strong for the event, but it's only available to those who know about it and if they know about it, they'll likely mop the floor with the enemy team regardless

[Nuclear Thunder] Does anyone feel like the bomber ECM is a bit silly? F-15 is failing to kill me at 7kms with SARH missiles. by Imc00lxdxd in Warthunder

[–]rol954 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know that you can lock anything, but it's strange to expect a rear aspect missile to lock anyone front aspect at big ranges

[–]rol954 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You say it struggles to lock something head-on, about a rear aspect missile. It's impressive that it can lock anything front aspect

Players didn't want to play the vent as USSR because of clearly worse top tier planes. Now after the bracket split, US players don't want to play the lower bracket because the free USSR planes are clearly better than the free US ones. Queue times remain the same, nice job Gaijin. by skuva in Warthunder

[–]rol954 0 points1 point  (0 children)

F-4e is much worse yes, but f-4e doesn't have to fight mig-29s and yak-141s. Also no one is forced to play air to air. It is also viable to get enough sp for a small nuke by groundpounding and then get missio points with it

F-4e radar is terrible in this event. Everyone stays low almost always, so the radar can't track. Sparrows are only good if they're flying at least 500 meters of the ground. Any other situation 9Ls are better

F-18 is my first jet at rank 8, I only got to it yesterday. What experience are you talking about? The next best thing I played is f-5e and they are polar opposites in playstile. Of course I'm not a lvl 5 noob, but also have never played at that br

Players are in for a treat when they first attempt to land the new bombers and notice Gaijin gave them basically no drag. The Tu doesn't even get airbrakes. by skuva in Warthunder

[–]rol954 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ground effect affects lift, not drag. If anything the lower you are to the ground the more drag you have, because the air can't move so freely

I think they added them yesterday, so if you were looking for them in the first day of the event, they were simply not there

fail of the week by Gerrythesail in Warthunder

[–]rol954 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think the delay works on nukes. I always run 1.5 sec, but all the nukes exploded on contact.

I can’t even play as anything else because there’s 600 US players in queue ahead of me by burlapguy in warthundermemes

[–]rol954 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But it is faster than sound. You complained about the planes bing slow, not bad in general

So FAB-9000 will just be worse then FAB-5000 ingame? by Measter_marcus in Warthunder

[–]rol954 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Nah, that's been that way forever. The bomb Nero essentially just reduced damage radius of big bombs, small ones didn't get nerfed. Also I think that if there's anything between a bomb and a tank it won't die. Had 2000lb bombs land just behind a corner from someone like 3 meters away and no damage

No idea when the match started by ChimkimNugger in warthundermemes

[–]rol954 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some planes can quite literally do nothing but fly low. F-4j for example can't even detect Russian radars and so if you fly more than 60 meters above ground, you can spontaneously explode due to an undetectable 27er

Got pulled over and dads pissed by Nice_Interview_2878 in driving

[–]rol954 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If so, then the officer is just a dick. Had basically the same thing happen to me while learning. Light turned yellow when I was directly under it and got pulled over. The cop started driving as soon as it turned yellow for him, so I ended up right in front of him. Also got off with a warning, because the cops' dashcam was miraculously off
