Wooden mock-up = functioning prototype? lol

The only time I joined a Heli PVE match, all I did was fly from one point to another across the map before other teammates closer to the targets destroyed all of them, and repeat… I spent nearly a hour before figuring it wasn’t worth it. Never again xD.

Specially since, from what I’ve seen, rewards aren’t amazing either. Not even a full mod on a hour long match, etc (when they manage to see some action, which I didn’t).

I grew tired of this debate years ago and generally side with Gaijin on it, but this is a good point. They shouldn’t be in SB at all.

Exactly they make no sense, why are they still in sim battles. Either bring them back or actually remove them from the game.

I’d be fine if they were removed from sim but allowed to be played in GAB/GRB as a compromise.

They should in general remove weird stuff from sim.

I hate flying america in air sim, seeing a bf109 and learn it’s a friendly.

Or a zero, or a ki. Why do people even fly america if they go and use german or japanese planes is beyond me.

Especially in a mode with visual IFF and teamkill enabled.

This is very Hungarian sounding name, not going to lie

Then they’d have to remove all copy-paste vehicles from the game. If you see a F-84F, for example, it’s impossible to know at a first glance whether it’s American, German, Italian, French or Israeli. Same goes for planes like Phantoms and not all jets have IFF at those tiers. With Gaijin dead set on homogenizing tech trees with more sub-nations chock full of copy-paste (see Thai aircraft in Japan) it’s going to get worse in the future.

Or just ban all of them for Sim?

I really want it to be a reference to Eurofighter, I play Germany on a plane in Toptier, and it’s very difficult to play Toptier with a 1970 jet

I play Germany and I can’t stand playing toptier anymore with a 1970 13.0 jet that doesn’t have an ARH missile

I think Richthofen means that the hull itself was functional. And that’s accurate as it was that of a Panther Ausf D that was pulled off the production line and selected to house the turret mockup. Legitimately speaking, the only actual part of the Coelion project that remained on paper is the turret

Right, so the important part.

Yeah, pretty much haha. That said, the closet analog to the Coelion in-game is what replaced it, funnily enough

kh 38 ? pantsir ?

I wonder is Gaijin neglecting the sim community? Would be nice for the devs to ask us what we’d like for a change….

Asymmetric ticket bleed is just the subsequent result of:

  1. Unbalanced maps or basic design mistakes on certain maps
  2. Unbalanced ai planes - at prop BRs some of them are way more effective than others. Either they produce way more relative damage to enemy Ground units than their counterparts (like Fw 190 F ais vs A-26 ais) whilst others are way easier to shoot down as they have no defensive turrets.

Technically seen those are not really “bugs” (like we had on certain maps when ai planes crashed collectively into mountains).

If you are actually interested in map feedback regarding points 1 & 2 - please read this thread:

Thx in advance!
