Please elaborate, how does it stack up versus other aircrafts that makes it so amazing that made people cry about how op it is?
In the worst case scenario, you can get a draw when fighting this plane. You can disengage at will and come back on your terms. This plane doesn’t do anything amazing, it’s genuinely mid, there are way better and more overpowered planes at a lower br
Losing to a F-5E at 11.0 is severe skill issue
Ok so couple things:
F-5 family has a weird glitchy relationship with their IR signature. Basically they can often not be locked onto by IR missiles even when chasing them rear aspect with their afterburner on depends on what missile it is and the other conditions.
F-5 family also has an issue with being overly survivable, especially for their size, as they are tiny gnats of aircraft.
F-5 does not work against good pilots, yes. This is because it’s slow as you have noticed. However, that doesn’t make it easy to kill as its very agile, tiny, has that low IR signature, and has that great damage model.
F-5 is naturally good at what people want to do when they’re bad at the game which is turnfight everything. It has A6M/Vampire/Venom type syndrome
When everything is combined, it’s an annoying rat plane.
F-5 A and C. SPECIFICALLY ( a fix is long overdue but the C is selling well, still. So don’t expect it to be resolved in any reasonable time frame)
That it does and should be played as such.
Yes people overrate it but at the same time the matchmaker allows it to be consistently good, especially against premium andy hordes
AFAIK it’s always been present on F-5E as well.

Totally agree, that’s why im calling it overrated and mid
Well you know wrong. It’s a vastly different thing on the Es. It still doesn’t have a massive signature but can at least be locked by IRs at a reasonable distance.
I have played the game for a long time. It’s always been the case. You not noticing it happening to you doesn’t mean it isn’t something other people haven’t noticed.
So you think to say the opposite of what I say is the case and be taken seriously by me?

The game changes, it’s not the same as it was in 2013. I don’t notice it because it doesn’t happen

Yes, since i played this plane for 3 days straight and it’s definitely not how you say it is. When was the last time you flew it?
You know it’s been at least a FEW months since I played a dozen matches or so, so I hopped into it just now to see if I could put up something to show you. This is the very first game I played while I was not very sober or awake. The plane is very simple to use and puts out extremely high performance for the niche it fufills which is holding S on people.
As a bonus here is the video
Cool, i also got lucky with a 6 kill match while spading it. I also got 6 kills with the Su-25, doesn’t mean it’s op. This isn’t about your skill. This is about a plane that people call op while it’s very mid
Did you finish the match without flaring since this plane is very hard to lock with IR? Did you receive a 23mm cannon burst and flew like nothing happened because the damage model is busted as you claim?
holding S on people
This is simply not true. If you did that, you would have died. This plane doesn’t turn good, It only completes its loop faster while having high speed. A dorito will turn into you if you just hold S
Usually its a sign when I can do it not sober, dead tired, and first game on rusty with it as all hell though.
I end the match with 25 flares haha
I do have a clip of that happening as well to post
It turns very well… I do so in that game a few times, watch the F-5A/C turn for example when I’m chasing it
Excuse my ignorance, but what is the dorito again? I think I knew once…
Cool vid, are u using any sound mods, sounds kinda nice
This doesn’t show that F-5E is op. It’s a mid vehicle and you got a good match, the Su-25k at the end was even kind enough to crash after seeing you ran out of ammo lol
Excuse my ignorance, but what is the dorito again? I think I knew once…
Delta wings such as MiG21 and J35/J37
yeah I use IWSM
Throughout the match I show how good it can be with its turns and ability to maintain energy though? I will be playing more throughout this morning and posting more results/videos so stay tuned anyway, I don’t know what you will say when there are 10 examples
Are you gonna post matches that are gonna be played one after another or just hand pick the high kill ones? Posting gameplay is not really a proof of anything. It’s really hit or miss, you could get clueless adversaries or be uptiered against 20 radar missiles
You have to understand that if i post gameplay where i get 6 kills with Su-25 that wouldn’t make it op
The only thing i could say is congrats on being a good player? I never claimed otherwise
Ok I will make a chart of the next 10 or 15 games and just post whatever happens
Though I disagree that if I can post gameplay of me dogfighting and winning against jets you claim you cant do so against? I say that’s evidence of the contrary. The jet being capable of consistently putting out high kill games is evidence of its usefulness.
I don’t know what this will prove. Just right now i got a kill on a Kurnass then got teamkilled by a MiG-23ML. So things like these could happen and it would alter all your data, since on paper it’s only a 1 kill match, but it could’ve been more. Or you could get lucky against players that don’t know they can simply move away from you
You do you, if you wanna post your results, then i’m interested in seeing them
so far this is what I got
going to go make a sandwich and get back on in a minute
