And how would you fix it?
Most aircraft only get 1 bracket where they are top. The only issue is there is no 12.3 bracket for “slight” uptiers at the moment, but until we get 14.0s. There wont be any new brackets added. What we have now is the best we can get.
Much like any other 12.0 aircrat, play it in the downtier bracket, and if you dont want to play it in the uptier bracket, play something else. If you want a premium to play. the AV-8B(NA) is looking rather good at the moment
Your experience is basically a microcosm of pretty much every red side BR with 3rd - 4th generation jets.
You complain about MiG-29 being unfair…when the German F4F ICE has to fight F-16C, F-15C, and Gripen. Heck…you should give the MiG-29 a shot…player counts are typical 2:1 and the MiG-29 is just straight up inferior to the Iranian F-14A now that the missiles were buffed.
This whole BR range is basically unplayable if you are not on the USA side.
I know that too. I have ussr and usa top jets. Almost all of them. So i can compare. I know that ussr is a hardcore mode, where you flying almost blind with subpar weaponry.
Idk. Give 12br its own stable bracket. So the planes that been bought for a price of normal game wont be food.
In what universe? USSR is pretty easy.
It has one?
Rotation 3. Its 11.3 - 12.0.
As I said above. Normally, most aircraft get 1 full downtier bracket. F-4S and other 12.0s miss out on the 12.3 bracket which would be a minimal uptier for it (and quite frankly thats needed for the 12.3s more than anything else which are forced to fight 12.7s all the time)
A 12.3 bracket would means the worst it would face is the F-4EJ KAI Phantom II, JH-7A, Mirage 2000C-S5/S4
and that’s it. The only other 12.3 is a Harrier Gr7 which its always matched with
(i now get why they didnt bother with a 12.3 bracket, only 9 aircraft at that BR currently and only for some nations)
Purely at top tier, the Su-27 has one of the weakest radars of any nation at the moment and is a bit buggy (actually all radars are, but the Su-27s radar seems perticuarly badly affected). Also the R-77s have a lot shorter range than AMRAAM. (though R-77s are better at close range)
So in those respects. Its worse. But… Su-27 can also take an obscene amount of weapons and weapon types, so can handle situations better than most, just takes a lot more effort (in part gaijins really bad weapon selection cycling)
But below that, Mig-23MLD is still good, though finally actually 11,7 worthy and not where it should have been before the nerfs of 12.0
Also doesnt help that the Bluefor vs Redfor balance is out at the moment, so soviets are usually fighting like 1v2 at the moment, but not a lot can be done about that
Well tier VIII is not so easy (except MiG-29) but MLD is most easy jet to play ever.
Yeah… I’ve never played it, but FGR2 vs Mig-23MLD definetly feels like the MLD holds all the cards unless they are stupid enough to try and fight me at alt in a headon.
Definitely MLD holds all cards. Only problem is that 90% of USSR teams are braindead.
They are used to 3 years of not having to put in any effort to get kills in it. They do now.
And im having a blast finally getting my revenge on all the times I was stuck in the FGR2 to deal with them now that I can Bring the Tornado F3 to bear against them in those glorious downtier brackets.
I mean its own 12.0 bracket. Maybe get some 12.3 to 12.0 for sim.
What do you mean, it’s own 12.0 bracket?
There is a 12.0 bracket. How would it be any different?
A 12.0 to 12.3 bracket wouldnt work. There isn’t enough aircraft at 12.0 or 12.3. it would basically be mirage 2ks , F4 KAIs and tornado advs Vs f14as, F4s and tornado f3s
Additional problem - as has been discussed further up - with the 12.0 rotation is that there’s only a phew Phantoms, the early Tornado fighters and a Viggen there, nothing on the typical “red” side.
Thats plenty. Just do all vs all. Idk why red and blue countries exists at this point at all.
For example top jets almost every time playing heavily unbalanced lobbies. 1 to 2 or 3 unbalanced.
12.0 being top tier is unbalanced af. Same when its down tier.
Just make permanent 12.0-12.3 bracket with all vs all lobbies. Would be awesome.
The problem is there is no 12.3 bracket !!!
Now it’s facing Mig29 75% of the time, with 12.3 bracket it would be only 50% of the time
No thanks,
Not fun trying to VID an enemy F4S Vs a friendly F4S in the Harrier Gr7 with no radar
I hate all Vs all lobbies…
It was just a thought, a wish. I like it and you are not. Probably its a good thing we both cant do anything about it.
Same, with planes in several countries is already too much of a problem, all vs all is going worst.
All vs All for RB with labels.
