Bullet Hell: The Old Fashioned Way!

Pilots with a bunch of fancy missiles. Without them, what are you? You’ll have the chance to find out in the new Bullet Hell event, a team deathmatch style mode where you fight in toptier jets with just cannons. No missiles allowed!

Take part in this two-day event and show what you’re worth when just using aircraft guns.

When: November 19th (11:00 GMT) until November 21st (11:00 GMT).

Where: Events and Tournaments → Bullet Hell.

How does Bullet Hell work?

Bullet Hell pits two teams of eight against each other in modern jet aircraft with just cannons as weaponry. The first team to destroy 20 enemy aircraft wins!

Event Features

  • All secondary weapons that you bring into a battle (except for cannons) will be automatically discarded when you spawn in. External fuel tanks can be used in battle in a loadout consisting of them alone or with them and cannons.
  • Each pilot has 3 respawns available.
  • Any aircraft with a Battle Rating from 12.7 to 14.3 can participate.
  • Battles take place in Realistic mode with markers.
  • You can replenish fuel and ammunition at the spawn point.
  • Spawning with a vehicle requires Silver Lions, which are returned at the end of the battle if your aircraft wasn’t destroyed. The number of Silver Lions returned depends on the vehicle’s condition.
  • You can earn research points and Silver Lions in battles in this event.

Is this peak! I am glad its 8 v 8 format too rather then 1 v 1. Should still give aircraft that are weaker to have a chance. Although if this does become a permanent mode, BRs would need to be balanced for this mode separate to regular airRB.

Then again, 12.7 - 14.3 puts alot of airframes into the same matchmaker so I am really curious how this will turn out!

Oh yes… time for f15 golden eagle to shine… Oh wait. Nope.
Just a contious spam of ef/typhoon/rafale just same bs nothing new, just no missiles. And not even any unique rewards.
Even this effort of this “event” could be used to fix and rethink br’s instead that last chatgtp made br raises.

This mode is a mistake and a waste of developing time if there was any at all.
Rounds will be horrendously dominated by eurocanards without proper bracketing. At least French players/mains will be able to practice shooting with the stealth belts of the Rafale.
