Air RB NEEDS Change NOW

Yeah it’s Saipan - 2 flotillas of landing craft are going for the Island on the right, another group for the left Island with the JP airfield (with useles af aaa); the F6F bots are attacking also this island.

Agreed - it was a nightmare, even when they gave US planes (finally) an airstart too - u had to kill the G4M1 bot bombers, a hell of patrol boats and you were totally outclimbed…

Yes - to a certain degree.

But since about 3-4 years we have these very small matches which effectively kills your chances to fulfill any objectives. I mean in a 6 vs 6 match on Iwo jima you need to kill 18 cargo ships before they release endless waves of landing craft - which launch tanks if they make it to the beach.

Even if you were good enough to kill 10 cargo ships with 10 x 60 kg bombs (TT B7A2) you got overwhelmed by the rest. But since ~ 1 or 1,5 years gaijin buffed aaa on escorting cruisers and the cargo ships itself; i lost a hell of planes due to that.

Same story with Saipan - you can wipe out one of the 3 landing craft flotillas and their tanks within a very small time window of 2-4 seconds with a perfectly aimed 800 kg bomb at exactly the time when the reach the beach - but the other 2 will win for them.

The main difference is a better motor so slightly extended range, less pull due to the new motor and a dual element IRCCM if I recall, we could get this in the next update alongside the F/A-18 Super Hornet.

No offense but it is very distracting and annoying when you bold so much.

But yes the new motor is the big change along with the better seeker. The new motor actually has pretty insane thrust. It flies almost as fast as an r27er

its inevitable that we have to make this game ace combat but multiplayer. the available weaponry to target variety is so off half the plane above 8.7 have 90% of their secondary weapon loadout useless/loses it’s merit. making this game a lobby oriented multiplayer instead of match oriented multiplayer is the only way to go forward.

No, fully mixed matchmaking [like arcade battles] would expose imbalance.
Historical teams would CAUSE imbalance.

There’s a reason the arcade game modes are the most popular, and it’s not cause they’re imbalanced.

@七-十三
War Thunder will never be Ace Combat outside of arcade battles.
