Because you’re trying to move the goal post and I’m defending my argument.
The MiG-29 is fine at 12.7, it has R-60Ms and an ok FM. It has insane radar missiles and a good radar and that’s it, not really worthy of 13.0 yet.
I’ve been playing dozens of 11.3 matches and F-14s have given me no issue.
Their ARHs are garbage, and they only have rear-aspect IR missiles making intercepting them easy if one gets close enough to me since my team mates usually frag them.
Yak-141 is fine where it is.
However, what 11.7s are you using?
I’m using Tornado GR1 with relative ease. Haven’t seen a single 141 yet, and the 29s I’ve seen died to my team’s 12.7s.
huh???
If I have 100 BOL small caliber flares, then I have to use them all before I can use the standard caliber flares, unless I don’t know about something.
Yes, as a USA main at the moment (I’m grinding the Russian tech tree too) I agree that it was bullshit.
Apart from flight models they are fine. Russian radars are supposed to be bad. MiG-29SMT’s radar is one of the best.
On a side note I wish there were SM versions of MiG-29SMT and MiG-21SMT, because they are ugly. I assume that’s the only difference between SM and SMT - a hump with an additional/bigger fuel tank - correct me if I’m wrong.
Except that MiG-29 had absolutely cracked flight model at release, while F-16 was the only plane in the game with a G-limiter.
Also I really doubt R-27R is on AIM-7E2 level. It has worse range than AIM-7M, but apart from that they are very comparable. R-27R wouldn’t be an issue at all if Gaijin implemented drag curves and fixed Russian flight models.
Yes. It has less specific power (total thrust / weight) and it’s historically accurate. It’s more manouverable though.
If you have sources that prove R-27R underperforms, then make a bug report. I have done my research and it only slightly underpeforms (find the R-27s rework part): Gen 2-4 jets rebalance . It only has 3.5 mach on the stat card vs 4.5 mach, but my sources might be wrong or the top speed on the stat card isn’t a cap, but just info.
I think the F14 is perfect until Gijins decompression the brs. Any higher it would be useless
Ye ye ye, I get it, you are super great, F-14s are no issue for you. But are issue for many players, who get wasted in first few minutes by Phoenixes so the team is suddenly -3 or -4 players. Very balanced.
The only people here defending the current BR for the F-14 are the dudes taking advantage of being OP at the moment, getting 99% downtiers and massacring everyone else.
Weird of you to claim that average skill is “great” while your post claims most players are bots…
F-14A is not OP, and claiming it’s OP is defending the F-14A… which is what your post is doing.
Keep defending F-14A from everyone posting facts.
@七-十三 Claiming that everyone that isn’t him ruins topics as usual.
“Ignore everyone and only listen to me.” is such a trash take.
Honestly, I don’t understand your runes, but they look powerful.
Anyway, the stats will be clear and the F-14 will go up, but unfortunately it will take a while because Gaijin is extremely slow at this. So you’ll be able to enjoy butchering in the OP machine for a while.
Stats show the F-14A is mid.
Claiming F-14A is OP is claiming F-4J is OP.
Bit harsh (I’m trying to learn here) but yeah I AM that bad at defending against ARH missile. I already knew that. Imagine my struggle against AMRAAMS and R77s. I have literally never dodged one of those. If they are shot at me I have 3 options: 1. I go cold and drain their energy. 2. I somehow notch it and survive. 3. I eat it in the cockpit.
I have too much skill issue to dodge any missiles.
I cant dodge sparrows or 27ers, or fellow 530Ds either.
But yeah fair points all around, thank you for teaching me. I’ll slow it down.
Sidenote, I knew this missile was coming when I spotted its smoketrail from the Tomcat. I knew this missile was on its way for all this time. I specifically didnt maneuvre and let it get close to try to dodge it so I could make this video and post it here to learn from it.
Yes, stats are mid and have 99% downtiers is perfectly OK. I dont know if you are stupid or just trolling.
@stanislavek1
Downtiers don’t make a vehicle OP as the opposing team also has 12.3s, and 12.3 is as easily likely to see 13.0 as it is 11.3.
Resorting to insults is identical to stating your posts’ information is incorrect.
If F-14A is OP, so are all other 12.3s in the game.
I told you, Ignore him. The rest of the thread replies has been ignoring him and it’s successful enough, He is a troll, a malicious one. he’s even more infuriating last year.
@七-十三 Out here claiming every War Thunder player that isn’t him are all trolls.
Absolutely disgusting claim.
He even implies the WT community was more infuriating last year all because I repeated the best takes of everyone… disgusting.
Absolutely disgusting that his posts portrays him as thinking everyone playing WT is malicious.
You are right, I’m obviously arguing with a moron and if I keep it up, we’ll be two morons arguing. So I’m going to ignore him because he’s completely out of touch with reality. Troll feeding is over.
And keep ignoring him if you found him in other thread. I’ve seen a lot of thread where he got ignored these days and by god that’s fucking funny.
@七-十三 Finding it funny if War Thunder’s critics are ignored…
It appears they support War Thunder never improving; thus staying the same.
Keep spreading hate against the WT community, dude.
If at any point you agree with every critic that War Thunder needs improving, I’ll be one of them to open you with open arms as I don’t hold grudges.
