Good luck getting to 20km mark in high tier NE, i can do it but it’s a lot of effort and a lot of times you are basically making a suicide run, especially in the initial phase of rhe match.
Meanwhile, i can launch 8gbu39 from 30km wich is much easier and i get 6ground kills instead of 1 maybe 2 if lucky.
There is a reason most SAMPT stay operational all match while s300 die in 5 minutes, there is no effective way of doing SEAD/DEAD as redfor, meanwhile it’s trivial doing it with AGM154and gbu39/53.
Only one sampt is near the defilade and good luck using that mountain range with all the F15 and EF2000 getting into altitude becouse redfor AA is out the first 5minutes
The GBU 39 doesn’t need to be nerfed or touched at all. The game mode needs to be reworked almost entirely so that it’s not the only way to logically take out the 2035 era munitions intercepter AI with xray vision and no radar limitations. Unless you want to risk going on a one way Kamikaze trip for a single vehicle all the time. Also the map is WAYYY too small. Why is the literal airfield I take off from within VISUAL range of the enemy SAM/SPAA -_- an advanced updated version of Air RB EC is exactly what is needed. Nuclear Escalation currently takes all of the problems that make Top Tier Air RB almost insufferable and add some on top. It’s super frustrating because this is all done on purpose cause if we have too much fun and not enough failure the craving for that premium dopamine hit won’t be as as strong

Unless you want to risk going on a one way Kamikaze trip for a single vehicle destruction all the time. Also the map is WAYYY too small. Why is the literal airfield I take off from within VISUAL range of the enemy SAM/SPAA -_- an advanced updated version of Air RB EC is exactly what is needed and if the maps can’t scale larger the player count needs to scale lower. like 10v10 give or take in an updated Air RB EC would be amazing. With new assets like fuel depots and some SAM sites from nuclear escalation etc. Nuclear Escalation currently takes all of the problems that make Top Tier Air RB almost insufferable and add some on top. It’s super frustrating because this is all done on purpose cause if we have too much fun and not enough failure the craving for that premium dopamine hit won’t be as as strong. Can’t have that happening, now can we? Even the bombing reward system for the one and a half DECADE old 4x base RB bombing targets (that are more barebones than before since they don’t play a role in helping team and 16 people fight over the first 4 bases) are penalized for bringing multiple bases worth of munitions. So if I bring enough for 2 bases and can’t get 2 I get around 50% the reward for the one base I did get? Literally just there to sneakily slow progression to a data driven average speed limit. Thats why sim hasn’t been touched in half a decade besides the 15 minute useful actions. That’s why the top tier air spawn mach 1 already in launch range head on 16v16 ~192 on average fox 3 filled lobby “realistic” ace combat main game mode’s reward system has become based around time spent in match, which is an average of 7-8 minutes in toper tier RB. Spawn, overpopulated cage match TDM ace combat action, back to hanger, start match (that’s why they are always so worried about anything that even slightly affects match making times cause it can disrupt the battle royal-esque addiction formula). It’s such a shame, I would gladly pay more money on premium items if I had anything to do with them. Once you grind everything you want you realize there is literally nothing to do. Wanna fly your high altitude interceptor at tree top level? Welp, too bad. I used to not mind supporting the game and it’s years of updates but now I view giving money for items/vehicles the same way i feel paying taxes. Disappoints me so much, I can barely even force myself to play nowadays. I get one maybe test fly a plane or two and then log off, it’s more of a digital vehicle museum I feel like :( but I hate how the insane level of potential that has always been just one logically obvious required foundational change update away. Been playing for over 10 years. I am so close to losing all hope it will EVER happen.
Today is kinda shitty yes.
Also another thing… Other than bugs etc.
Can we do something about people not being able to play lower level garbage vehicles in higher levels???
Do i have to play with someone that gets his trash B-52 in a 13+ game???
Do i HAVE TO lose because a trashborn azzhat is stupid from the get go?
for years we have asked for an enduring confrontation mode. instead we get this, the TEMU copy of an competing game, that is as broken and unbalanced as things can get.
we need BR brackets, nukes should either be harder to get or removed completely, ai spaa need to be nerfed and long range sam moved further back.
also being put in ongoing matches that are 20-30 min in makes spawning pointless since the nuke spam has already started.
What I said may have been a bit of an exaggeration but still, Russia doesn’t have nearly as effective of a counter for the long range AA as other nations.
I just played my first round of nuke thunder after focusing on grinding for a few weeks and I was given the city map. This is WAYYYYYY too small for top tier, it should be limited to the bottom one or two brackets.
