American F-15E Strike Eagle Engines

Perhaps not - but they should if the one (hopefully two) planes they add are objectively better than all the 13.7s

it would have been interesting to see maybe an F-15E Early and possibly giving israel a later upgrade of a F-15D Baz Meshupar

I’m not criticizing your suggestion I was criticizing the justification you provided for Gaijin. Also it wasn’t personal

It would be very weird to add 2 planes at 14.0 and nothing else in the entire game is at that br

There’s many ways gaijin could have implemented these planes without pissing off this many people

The devs are not some evil entity hell bent on causing you pain. They make mistakes due to the nature of their job.

It is the job of the community to try and point out their mistakes - but we should also at least try and understand why a change was made.

This was not a mistake dude, don’t be so naive

They are a company oriented on making lots of money. To suggest they don’t make choices based on the companies finances is an impossibility.

Of course this is true, the majority of their decisions are financially motivated, which is to be expected.
But where is the financial motivation in holding back the peformance of the F-15E. Giving USA an extremely competitive top tier aircraft would be lucrative for them since many players would buy prems to get it, or GE it outright. Far more so than if they added one to israel.

My point is, is that I think the reason they did not give the 229s to the F-15E is to not overshadow the F-15C. I am not defending this logic - I dont agree with it, and the reason why is that the same logic cannot apply to the Ra’am, which will simply overshadow the Baz Meshupar if it comes in its current state at 13.7

You are allowed to differ, but understanding will bring you more enjoyment than hatred will

i would also provably be happier if my IQ was 40 points below global average but that doesnt make it a desired outcome

There’s nothing to understand, we’ve tried to think of any way this decision could make sense, and there isn’t one, other than monetary gain

again, if all the performance is consolidated into one, they will have a tougher time getting the same money out of that one aircraft as they would 2 aircraft that do different roles. a lot of people grind mainly the bomber line because of the passive playstyle, so putting the dominant fighter in that line would hurt their pockets

Your point was that if the F-15E was the top dog in terms of ginding air AND ground, then players would be incentivised to only grind one aircraft, which would be less lucrative.
This seems logical, however I would suggest that if they WERE to add the F-15E with 229s, the amount of people it would tempt to spend money on rushing to top tier to get an extremely powerful vehicle would actually make it more lucrative than if they didnt add it - that was my point.

My profession is irrelavent here, but if you are going to insult my IQ, im going to defend myself.
