Because it’s unbalanced.
There should always be a chance of facing opponents in better machines than you.
why is it unbalanced? also my list provides better opponents in uptiers just fine.
I was EXTREMELY upset when my Mirage 3C could no longer face up to 4 F-14s in battles.
Yes, the limit is 4 in a full uptier for aircraft of 1 BR higher.
Why? Cause I knew they couldn’t kill me unless they dogfight me [none of them fought me thus I killed 5 and died to none of the 12 - 20 I’ve come across], and killing them was both easy due to their engine exhaust, and punishing if I screwed up the engagement angle.
I support decompression, but 11.0 - 12.0 isn’t what to look at.
You can get to 13.3 just by decompressing 9.3 - 10.7 more, possibly even.
Sure, you could increase nearly every 11.3, 11.7, and 12.0 by .3, but you should also increase half of 11.0s by .3 as well, including but not limited to Mig-21 Bis & F-4E.
Facing a Mig-29 with an F-4E or a Mig-21Bis is a challenge, but it’s not like facing something that has unbeatable missiles for the aircraft I’m in.
They still have to use their guns on me, or hit me in a mistake I make.

I don’t really care to be honest. This is such a weird take and it’s why people think you’re an obvious paid shill. 99.999% of people want to face less jets they can’t do anything about in uptiers.
Also, I decompressed the hell out of every BR. The only jets that didn’t move as much were 10.7 area.
And yes, it is unbeatable against any MiG-29 with decent skill if you’re in anything that isn’t a jet close in performance ie F-14/F-16/M2K.

In 1v1 matches sure, but random battles are a team experience.
I enjoy a custom 1v1 session as much as the next guy.
Random battles are a team experience until they’re not. It’s extremely easy to get forced into 1v1s or 1v2s when playing, especially in an uptier.
Still overcompressed.
TBH, old top dogs shouldn’t face against any supersonic jets.
how is that overcompressed? its about as decompressed as you can reasonably get
Also, how do you keep the top of subsonics not meeting supersonics? Legit did you think that through? How does that work?
According to this spreadsheet, the max BR limit is 14.0, so there is significant space for every 0.3 BR. Therefore, consideration should be given to giving loadouts that are better than those historically carried and currently in the game except R-73s and AIM-9Ms.
MiG-21MF/SMT could carry R-60Ms so, it can move up to 12.0BR that is only 0.3BR different from the MiG-21bis.
F-8E could carry AIM-9Gs and AIM-9Hs so, it is still possible to move up to higher BR.
If these vehicles can be pushed to the highest possible BR, there will naturally be room to pack the early supersonic aircraft to 10.0-11.0 BR.
His list is bad because it doesn’t let balanced aircraft face each other.
It ends all variety of matches period all for the sake of 10 minute queue times since no one wants to play against even less variety.
tbh, I’m surprised that list says F-4E should have same BR with F-4J(UK) that has PD radar.
The fact F-104C can never be in the same match as F-11.
Ju-288 goes up for no reason.
Mirage 3CJ can never face F-104Cs…
Just as three examples of horrific nonsense.
I think that just makes these vehicles more samey though when they had validation before. Instead of having a MiG-21 at two different BRs you have 2 MiG-21s where you’ll probably only ever play the bis after unlocking it
Not really.
Your concern is won’t happens unless it is a complete copy and paste vehicles like a Bf 109 F-4 or F-4/trop or having same BR with “better” vehicles like Meteor Mk.4 G.41G. You can folder similar vehicles in each other and it is not uncommon to see similar vehicles in the current game as well like the Me 262 C-1a/C-2b.
I mean, it has already happened before with vehicles like this. So, I believe what I said.
it’s because compression isn’t able to be fully beaten back by just adding 2 BRs from 12 to 14. Especially when I chose to decompress not just jets but also props.
Ju288 has reason to go up
How are your other two “Examples” relevant or a problem? They’re even wrong. Mirage IIICJ is 11.0 in my list and the F-104s are between 10.7 and 12.3. So the only singular F-104 you can’t see is the 104ASA which makes sense.
Ju-288 is one of the most balanced bombers in game.
I say this as someone that hunts them and uses it.
F-104A/Cs should always have a chance of facing transonics especially afterburning ones like Sabredog.
It’s not that they’re equivalent, it’s that an F-104 can’t win against a good Sabredog pilot, but is a superior airframe so 0.7 - 1BR higher.

Don’t agree. I am also DECOMPRESSING THE MATCHMAKER so the entire point is to uptier the better planes away from the lesser planes and the Ju288 is most certainly the best bomber near this bracket…

Don’t agree. Makes no sense.

Untrue entirely
Ju-288 is a faster Ju-177, but the 177 can bomb 2 bases.
Find me players that can win a dogfight against a Sabredog, G91, etc using an F-104A/C.
All they can do is boom & zoom.
