Despite additional lag and stutter, I’m using EAC lately due to the tremendous and unbearable impact cheaters get in every battle, especially playing here from high ping locations and connected to “standard” internet service, but it’s never enough, because all that is mixed and obfuscated within the well known, and always present, uptiering and selective bias in favor of some players and/or some particular squadrons, I guess we could call them “white collar cheaters”. All these stuff leads to terribly imbalanced battles and leave all normal players very very far from enjoying the game and from spending more money, if any, in premium things, because it’s simple and clear, IT’S NEVER ENOUGH. That’s the cold truth for a huge part of the playerbase.
Evidence base for this, or just your own selective confirmation bias?
What is this “well known, and present selective bias” that you are talking about?
I’ve said that already, I can’t give any more data, please look for the evidence for yourself.
Same as above.
There is no evidence to look at other than your unsupported statement.
Ok, remain blind then, lol… or maybe you… I mean… perhaps you… lol.
Show me the data or it doesn’t exist.
If you can’t back up your claim, it is basically meaningless. And if you refuse to show evidence, your claim is incorrect, and you are wrong.
“If you don’t know I’m not going to tell you” = doesn’t actually exist.
I do have evidence, in fact I have many years of evidence, but I can’t publish it, it’s against the rules. Every evidence of white collar cheating, selective bias, uptiering or whatever u wanna call them should be detected and confirmed individually, not to be discussed here. You are right in the sense that NOT TO TALK ABOUT THESE THINGS here. I agree, lol.
Same as above.
Gaijin has admitted they have tampered with individual player rewards and progression, which they admit in this article. That is an acceptable thing to do, but it doesn’t stack up to your claims. You also act like the players themselves have gotten Gajiin to do it for them. If that last part is true, it is a VERY big deal, but I highly doubt it is true in any way.
It is against the rules to go out and say “report this guy bc I think he is cheating”
If you can’t prove that any sort of “selective bias” exists, then your claim means nothing.
Imho you should try these arguments within a church, temple or whatever.
Dismissing claims based on missing evidence works not everywhere.
Technically seen your argument is wrong too - as you don’t have seen all relevant data / mechanisms included in the MM - your pov is also just a “believe” / “trust” issue.
I’d like to remember you that i caught you spreading the “Don’t fight Yak-3s below 5.000 meters” myth - there is not a single primary source supporting your claim - therefore i recommend to relax in such cases.
Even if the “white collar” claim looks rather strange…
Always good to see more cleanup.
…but did you guys accidentally ban the guy who makes devblogs too?
This is real passion!
Indeed - although there was at least some evidence to be examined… unlike this one.
source: Green, William (1957). Famous Fighters of the Second World War . Vol. 2. Macdonald. p. 103.
Also:
Part of a discussion at "Do not engage Yak-3" ... Source? - Page 2 - Kurfurst Discussion Boards - no source identified although words to that effect are noted in a couple of places, with some discussion as to where they may have originated - possibly with Green, but unable to confirm.
Also while the claim that the LW issued such an instruction doesn’t seem to have any primary evidence, you yourself did not LW accounts of being outmaneuvered by Yaks, so there is at least some circumstantial background information related to such a claim - again unlike this claim
Imho you referred to an official recommendation / order:
and i replied:
As long as you can’t present a primary source of the Luftwaffe High Command issuing such an order - all you have a claim of an author without any evidence, footnote or reference to a primary source.
In other words:
So either he forgot to add a reference (which could not be proven by anybody else) or he just invented the phrase to make his book more “spicy” to read.
As written in my initial reply it looks extremely unlikely that any HQ with Nazi Germany would have issued such a recommendation / order as it would severely question their racial ideology… But i explained that already.
I admit that this claim looks more reliable as the author is recognized as rather accurate historian:
But imho Graf is not the LW - and Graf has severe credibility issues as he was later accused to be a snitch for the USSR (whilst being a POW).
A curious statement - no he is not THE Luftwaffe, but he was commander of JG52, and the statement is what he said in 1944, not later.
Nonetheless there is evidence - hence it is not comparable to the claim made here.
Plus of course the old adage “absence of evidence is not evidence of absence” - so far we do not have any direct knowledge of such an order… but that is not the same thig as it not existing.
Love and kisses :)
You either let someone else on your account to hack for you, or you used a VPN while hacking for plausible deniability. If you were really hacked they would have straight up taken your account from you, and you’d be trying to get your account back from the hacker, rather than get it unbanned.
What you’re missing is the Yak-3(O)P (which I have yet to die in) and Yak-3U are both post war aircraft that face late war aircraft, while the regular Yak-3 should be 5.0 to face its contemporaries. I’m not sure it’s so much of an accuracy issue (although the energy retention is a bit suss) as simply being badly undertiered.
If you observe any air match, you’ll find Yak-3 pilots are almost universally terrible, much like wyvern and XP-50 pilots, which is how the status quo persists. The most OP vehicles are simply the ones that attract the worst pilots.
