Bullet Hell Returns Today, With Changes!

ariete, j7e and EFT-only mode

The mimimum vehicle requirement is really really bad
Vast majority of players only have a single high tier aircraft in their lineup and only have a single good crew so forcing them to crew an aircraft and to level up said crew just to play this mode is very unfair

Especially considering how playing this mode without a max level or even an expert crew is almost impossible at high BRs

Hello. It has come to my attention that this mode now uses BR ranges to determine matchmaking. Since BRs are determined by loadouts as well as performance, I propose to include bombing objectives to make the matches more balanced.

Thank you.

Why do you want to bomb in game mode called “Bullet Hell

Just crew a 8.3 plane and survive with the highest BR plane u have.

Btw and since this is gun only, it would be interesting to see a lowtier (in Bullets Hell terms, so basically lowtier = 8.3) plane fighting a toptier plane to see which one is more maneuverable. I have fought with my friend sometimes using his WW2 Zero against my Su-27SM.

I agree (and i’m one of them) but honestly it’s just like 400k SL more just to crew a new toptier plane, and As crew is not specially neccessary.

But again, i agree with the idea that this is very unfair (if u can use M-51 3 times cuz it’s the only israelian tank u can play before unlocking more, then why not plane 3 times with the same aircraft?), specially cuz many planes that aren’t toptier planes (ej: Su-27, F-15A, Gripen A, J-10A, etc) perform a lot worse than other toptier jets like the Rafale and the Typhoon.

This gamemode is really baller but wouldnt it be better to have the reload zone be a repair zone and then have auto reload on that reloads after 30s?

True, it’s annoying to come back to the rearm zone with damages and not being able to repair them (specially when they’re severe damages or specific damages in crucial parts that really affect performance).

Added a requirement for a minimum of two suitable aircraft in your crew slots to play this mode (max respawns are three, and two aircraft are required).

So that means i’m not welcomed to play because i only kept 1 air crew all the way up to top tier.
It won’t cost much to just crew a lower tier plane and never touch it, but i’m not gonna do that out of principle.

I appreciate the thought anyways. It’s nice to see a new gamemode being added after a decade.

half-baked (still better than nothing tho) event. Why aren’t the planes rebalanced for the event (with the help of the community if needed), here we’ve got missile reliant aircraft handicaped, and performance reliant aircraft heavily advantaged. Ultra specific airvraft should be removed from the event like the f104s, impossible to kill without missiles if they play half decently, and the ariete that have ridiculously good fm and are pretty invincible in a gun fight at the cost of fighting missiles (that they no longer do).

Yeah lol the Arietes crush absolutely everyone there
Hopefully if this mode has enough success they’ll keep working on it and we’ll eventually get an actual balance
Though it’s kinda hard to play if you don’t have one of the few op vehicles, so I’m not sure it’ll have so much success

Considering your track record of listening to your player / customer base, it’s gonna be a hard pass for me!

That two aircraft requirement is wack, I only have one crew per nation spec’d for aircraft. I am not about to waste SL to do a second crew slot just to play a limited game mode.
