BI-1 Is Pay-to-Win and needs to be dealt with

Global KD is a bad stat cause it includes non-fighters.
His Mig-29 stat is 1.1:1 tho, which gets the point across without including non-fighters.

if you just take their top performing planes hes still doing monumentally better in the BI compared to them

true, global K/D could point someone who plays very casually, even just goofing around as a bad player.

that is cherrypicking

well yes, we are judging air to air combat, you need to pick the planes made for it
else 99% bombers would be below rank III

Straw manning my global KDr is funny, considering I like bombers a lot.

let’s check bombers then

its an easy metric to compare, not everything is an ill intented personal attack with a gotcha nitpick

Well if I had to estimate, prob 50% of my plane gameplay is bombers.

I’m a sucker for a B-17G I wish they were tougher like irl.

I vividly remember out dogfighting you repeatedly with a pre buff f14a to your mig29 and su27, your takes are objectively incompatible with reality.

So my take that F-14A is better than Mig-29 and Su-27 is incompatible with reality?
Okay… whatever you say.

Only fuel normalized would they probably be closer to equal.

hes calling you bad at the game

Losing to an F-14A in an Su-27 has nothing to do with skill, F-14A is just a better aircraft in 1v1s.

Explain this one to me, how is the F-14A better than the Su-27 in a 1v1?

Given a lot of fighters are “bombers” At higher tiers, yeah, more bombers than fighters

OK.

i would have no problem with that

I can’t even test this thing as my “pilot” keeps blacking out while I’m testing out 40% throttle. Once it drops below 1m of fuel, it gets funny. Once it drops below 40s, it gets straight up scary.

He does do air combat… ish

But it’s quite few air sim games compared to G/ARB.

Spin-tendency is just… don’t pull that hard. LF Mk IX is not a newb friendly plane, it’s still grossly undertiered at 5.0.

Most fighters like to spin out (P-63, 109 G-6 (this thing will spin you if you change throttle too quickly in a turn), spitfires) if you treat them badly and don’t coordinate your turns. Some take more abuse to put into a spin than others.

Now for 6.7 and sim - it’s a dead BR ruined by Ju-288 at 6.0 and Su-11 at 7.0 and Saggi 2 at 8.0. I don’t fly anything at 6.0 or above unless desperate or by accident or if I know the lobby is free of ju 288s so I can’t comment. However in sim I feel it’d be even more powerful given the power of ambushes.
