chat GPT aah post
the best example are the 3 different API’s that are used for missile guidance
(and no its not like every type of missile has its own API)
Yeah if Gaijin got rid of multipathing, I’d quit top tier. Its the only way to stock grind planes without Chaff. Otherwise you just feed yourself to the enemy until you get enough RP to get Chaff and that’s no fun.
The second multipathing gone its gonna be impossible for certain planes to defend themselves for example low counter measure planes like F/A-18E become even harder to play and the whole toptier meta will devolve into BVR meta which not every toptier can do and would be incredibly boring
unless you find climbing to 30K ft firing missiles then landing fun
MP is a neccersarry game feature to keep the game balanced other wise youll be stuck in whatever’s meta and nothing else will be playable so anything that cant climb well will die

it wouldnt be so bad if chaff did something.
chaff feels like trying to stop a nuclear meltdown with a super soaker
There is one critical factor irl because of which planes dont fly at sub 50m height from ground, which is lacking from game.
That is random birds being sucked by your engines and ultimately killing it.
Add chaff to everyone and remove multipath for higher tier missiles.
It doesn’t matter if chaff does something or not if you have no chaff.
But also, Chaff is effective when paired with proper counter-missile manuevers, like Notching. To be fair
yeah you could do that but stock planes would only have 4 missiles 2 IR and 2 radar which they cant compete in BVR which is all toptier would become there would be no WVR so F18 would have zero chance as it cant BVR due to not having the FM
its not 100% guarnteed to always notch tho to be fair its a FOX-3 it can relock itself some times
I don’t think I’ve ever had a missile relock me after Notching. If you have an issue with a missile relock, you probably haven’t notched enough
it can happen tho rare its situational if you un notch to early before the missile has passed it can relock last second and hit you
Honestly against a good radar a perfect notch and spamming out chaff does nothing a lot of the time.
Ive only lost lock on a target notching correcly ONCE while using the F/A-18 a and CF-188. those radars are perfection but if you cant go to the 60m alt safe zone there is nothing you can do
