It’s been said many times, FGR2 and its brother sitting at 12.0 is criminal. The very wise and educated decision to give Russian players a free 13.0 jet with amraams has decimated any opportunity 12.0 planes like the phantoms, tornado, kfir, etc have at a fair match. I counted 90% likelihood of a full uptier where 13.0 F14B’s and Su’s spammed fire and forget radar missiles. I know how to dodge radar missiles, I do not know how to dodge 8 radar missiles from 3 russian premium players while simultaneously dogfighting another jet while carrying aim9g’s and aim7e2s. For the love of the game please vacate 12.0 and move the planes to 11.7 nobody at that BR is going to get a fair match. Btw I have spaded all the 12.0 phantoms, the 12.0 kfir, and the 12.0 tornado, that BR is a living hell and I don’t know if anyone can salvage it.
Main problem: Massive compression, as per usual.
I can only speak on experience from what appears in the british tree but its almost certainly the same for many planes around the 12.0 mark
The 12.0 phantoms (F4k “spey phantom” and F4J) have no business being so high when the EJ is only 11.0 within the compression constraints of high-tier air
the F111 isnt allowed to be a bomber because MIG 23 spam steals all bases.
how the bloody hell is a harrier GR7 (while missing two missiles) ok being the same BR as a hornet and able to face a SU30MK2
its just absurd how bad that air region is unless youre using a hornet, those things are so comically easy to play idk how people complain (unless its the 14.0 ones, thats bad)
most things from 12.3 and up needs to get moved up considerably.
I think 13.0 being where the first FOX 3 appears is still ok but only really for the FA2 harrier as its just pure trash tho
Bro don’t get me started on the Israeli python’s being treated like aim9m’s. Gaijin dev team does not play their own tanks and jets and it shows.
I dont think they do anymore… like how are some planes so high in BR when they get stomped by things several BRs lower
I spent a year bug reporting the scimitar tank into a usable state. I just need to get its armour made accurate as its very wrong. not that they will care as i helped on an armour report on the tortoise over a year ago, it was accepted alongside a ton of other things related to the vehicle, nothing still.
war thunders modelling and balance QC is basically a thing of the past now
Amazing conclusions…it’s so annoying.
Instead of finally realizing that compression is the main problem, another topic to lower BRs of a bunch of planes to make it even worse.
Dude, let’s make a deal:
GJN puts all your wished planes down to 11.7 and YOU will fly 1k battles 10.7 only.
