F-15EX Dev Discussion Thread

And a reduced RCS for all munitions, riiiiiight? 😊😊

thats not how nuclear thunder plays.

?
don’t lump me in with those larpers please

I just don’t want people to just go “teehee bigger number = I win for free”

Yes.

How would EX be able to compete with AESA EFT and Su-30SM2 and Rafale then?

you know you guys can play lower tiers and bullet hell right? nobody forces you to play top tier.

Yep and a mirage with one of the worst modern pd coverage in the game is probably the second most unkillable jet in a joust for the same reason.

No launch limit missiles are so good to use

Su-30SM2 will also lose double racks
EFT and rafale could also lose two missiles so they are forced to use their fm adv over EX

I don’t care for the realism as much as I care about the game being balanced
Like it or not, the high missile count meta did nothing but harm to the game’s balance

Well F-15EX 12 amraam isn’t even like those. I mean, it’s a fully historical operational larp loadout. There is no controversy surrounding it

AMRAAM isn’t even good for MCM and I fully support efforts to nerf MCM meta

you arent doing anything to change the meta youre just making it worse.

Are you daft or is this some larp of being uneducated? I has the 229 engines same as E and spice ir bombs the 15e doesn’t get

You seen that Gaijin’s decided to ruin sim even further by showing up the friendly indicator if you lock any sort of missile onto a friendly, including IR? 🫩

Anything but IFF on hardlock

I do not care.

12 missiles is too much
It removes the need to have good launches because well, you have 10 more so why bother with a good launch amir?

But only 10% thrust over the E which is not that big

The E can carry over 20 as well and even better ordinance and loud outs than the f15i which further proves my point

not as much because America already had the GE so it’s not that revolutionary and ia improves way way more on the I compared to the Ex and E also proves my point

We have seen how this back fired with review bombs before they should have invested their time on something more “interesting” like the dynamic br or a vehicle that a nation actually needs

It’s not an exception of the rules it’s a change in the rules as they have stated themselves so there’s no gratefulness or anything this was bound to happen

Further proves my point because Israel doesn’t have anything better than the f15i or didn’t have
That’s why everyone has the f15i unlike america you see a lot of people that have not even researched the E and went for the GE which again overall proves my point

why though?

no, only 20

Sounds like crying atp. They can change how locking AAM behaves, reduce RCS (except for R-77) but artificial nerfs to missile count makes no sense.

artificial buffs haven’t worked.

nerfing them all (which will still be realistically feasible, you just can’t use the vehicle’s maximum possible loadout) will even the playing field

mistel is an example for that
Not the ex
