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

TL;DR

The brs for both planes remain the same in grb. Just so you know.

Grb is technically slightly harder than Arb. No markers, or warnings.

Shvak damage still isn’t as good as I Am repeatably told, and despite pretty much nobody here owning the BI, besides me, nobody has actual experience using it in battle.

Comparing ballistics to ballistics. The MK-108 and M37 hit vastly harder, but fly slower. Shvaks fly faster but hit wayyy weaker

Again, sounds and looks like jealousy because you don’t have it.

you are literally placing an example for all of my points.
One decent player could look at this tell you are completely denying facts that come from experience.
I’ll wait for the 9th person to come to disagree with you.

I see plenty of people at WW2 brackets with the “console” icon in their name who do quite well in dogfights and BNZ alike. It’s just setting up your controls properly and messing with post-FX which you CAN edit on console.

Given you mainly fly jets, you probably have less to deal with when it comes to visual spotting , IFF and handling the plane.

I have no problem identifying and handling the plane.

I can see aircraft quite far away.

I do have a lot of good keybinds in my opinion, but it may be very certain aircraft where the trimming comes into play, unfortunately I don’t believe I can set trim without being in full real controls, which means I’d be way less accurate firing

Obvious troll.
Shvak shell does same damage as German shell with 29g HE mass, and slightly less than German 30mm shell with 86g HE mass
However, German 30mm shell with 86g HE mass deals same damage as Soviet 25mm shell with like.15g HE mass.

HE content of HE shells is basically completely insignificant in WT.

And P-59 can’t climb or accelerate and is a huuuge easy target. BI is tiny and has all the power it needs and then some and some more.

I feel it is worth noting certain aircraft fare better in open environments rather than raw duels due to initial speed and altitude significantly changing the environment, as well as the ability to shallow climb away and reset things.

I never see P-59 in public, but from what I read here its weakness seems to be similar to that of japanese props. Meaning, a Mustang Mk Ia can beat A6M3 and A6M5 in a public SB EC match by using its ludicrous speed (which is less viable vs mouse aim over sim, I imagine due to mouse aim accuracy). Same for F4U-4B vs Ki-84. However if both start at 2km altitude and like 15 seconds away in a head-on at the same speed with minimal room to extend away, the japanese prop will win the duel.

BI’s strengths and weaknesses are less influenced by the duel scenario given its main issue is having the ability to effectively generate ludicrous energy at any speed that props cannot match.

Bi is undertiered
P59 isnt even a threat if you dont go into a turnfight with it
go into a vertical fight and the P59 loses allllll of its energy

but the bi? faster than anything at 6.7, it outperforms everything it faces
ammo count isnt to bad, if youve flown J7E or the mig21 F13 it only has 60 rounds with an only 1 cannon so its really just a skill issue

performance wise it belongs 7.X+
not below 7.0

most jets cant do it that well either

and if you win, specially on the BI-1
you’ll prove it is not 6.7 material but 7.3 material.
and I know that you will fare far less better on the P-59.
Yak-3(e) you’ll probably win unless you full send the head-on
and 109Z you won’t win.

109Z is only good for climbing and headons
in a turnfight you even lose against a P38 even if both are equally skilled

more like 8.0 as its far better than Komet or ki-200 but has 1/3 less ammo to balance it out a little

Yak-3 probably depends on the opponent’s control mode.

ARB controls? It prolly wins vs 109 F-4.

Sim controls? It’s whoever is more skilled. The lack of instructor limits massive boost 109s vs yaks at cost of being able to kill yourself by pulling too hard (either by spinning out or bleeding your energy with a incipient stall giving the yak position). At least in my experience, I find myself pretty confident engaging the 3.0-5.0 yaks in my 109 F-4 and if I lose, it feels like I lost because of skill issue rather than being out-performed by an OP aircraft (or because it turns into a lengthy rate fight and we get third party’d).

And what do you want to test? That P-59A climbs bad, has bad armanent, is huuuge and super easy to hit?
Because these are just facts
Or that BI curbstomps other planes around its BR?

Comparing P-59A to BI is like comparing agility of Maus and M18 Hellcat…

Actually even at 7.3/7.7 not much would change, but would be more fair.

true but this dude plays on RB, which also sadly he takes air to air kills in arb and grb as holding the same value.

Man your attempts to insult never stop.

Meaning your less mature, wouldn’t that make you the “kid”?

A duel…? I thought that was obvious

A duel where you will deliberately suck monkey nuts to prove your point, or what do you want to find out?

What plane am I supposed to fly to “prove” a point?

You are supposed to fly the BI and Unique’s should literally any 6.7 plane, the P-59 and the 163 which he says are superior.
Unique is supposed to prove that the BI-1 is supposed to be easily be killed by it’s current opponents.
