I mean it is incredibly strong without markers, but deal with it i guess.

Only if you were in the mig-23. No one else has any counter

I wasn’t aware that props had access to countermeasures ,rwr, fox1,2,3 nor do I remember notching ever being explained. There is definitely a learning curve from 11.0 up

Brother this is like every top tier and high tier game in every realistic mode, ground or air. 😂
Your only purpose is to die. I hope you know that.
(I’m not being mean or sarcastic, that’s literally the only point of the PVE objectives in ARB)

This topic ended up having a great conversation about the existence of PVE in ARB and it’s real purpose in the state of the game.
Not trying to be mean, but truly your purpose is to be farmed, so of course you’re not going to enjoy it if you are a self proclaimed PVE enjoyer.
mfw most players dont understand notching, multipathing or radar

Sure it is a learning curve over all BRs, but if you learned your basic lessons in lower tiers, positioning, tactics, defence playing and so on, it’s not that steep.
Watch the teams in prop battles. The majority has no clue about positioning. Majority rushes in to force headons or focussed on one enemy. The ones survive build furballs: The rest climbs to orbit without pressuring the enemy at all. No one holds alt because after one attack they have no tactic anymore except diving out.
And with this lack of skill they join jets, and guess what, same disaster.
And now they join toptier…
I used the Mig only as timestamp. It was 2021 I guess. Great fights at toptier, great fights in props.
One year later, F-14 time, everyone rushes through the trees without learning anything.
Even if you are an experienced and competent top tier player it is a very difficult game mode to really enjoy due to the small maps and over crowded lobbies.
My best guess is that Gaijin chooses not to reduce lobby size because currently players who are not very skilled, but just paid a lot of money to hop into top tier can reasonably expect to get some bases and a few kills here and there amongst the chaos of 16v16. If it was 6v6 or even 8v8 skilled players would seal club alot of paying customers out of the game or at least top tier before they learned the basics.

I truly wish I was around back then for the Sabre fights.
Hence why i think we should have separate game modes with different player counts. Smaller player counts can get smaller to mid size maps, and larger player counts get mid to larger EC style maps. PLEASE GAIJEN UPDATE THE DAMN MODE AND STOP ADDING SO MANY NEW VEHICLES!!

Id actually argue that at top tier, they could do with both reducing the team sizes (8-12) and increasing the map sizes.

Smaller teams won’t help when one player who understands the mechanics of the game kills 5 players from the opposing team.
Mig15 were completely massacred by the F-2 to be honest. The F-86F-2 was absolutely dominating, and people also forgot that, at the time, the ticket bleed was autowinning the map on certains sides. For example Spain had NATO side autowinning with 0 player input after about 15 minutes of gameplay. It really wasn’t great.
The game was at its best when they introduced the Mig17 and the Hunter. The Supersonic update was ruined by the T-2 in Japan’s side, and the F4C vs Mig21SMT update was a bit too much in favor of the Mig (the UK had the FGR2 tho which balanced it a bit, and France had Mirage IIIC).
the f4c was added with the mig21f13 not smt, the smt was added with the f4e, the f4 was better both of these times and you guys must not remember when the f4 was the only plane with flares in a fox2 meta lmao that was some serious bs.
Talk for you i have a lot of fun.
That its a lie. SMT trashed the F-4E. That its why they add flare to it and not to the mig that could have a pod with flare. S*** got so ridicule with mig21bis that a full Mix MM was implemented. Then Gaijin Bugged the R-60 for 6 months. And remove the bug when they started to add new thing that could counter the migs dogfight like The UFO F-5s
The only mig that the Phantom could Bully was the poor MF that didn’t have RWR.
Can you explain why when I fire the 8 missiles of the f15 at 50 kilometers its touch at least 3 planes. There is a problem to die from a aim120 to 50k
please use proper grammar. The f4e was better with a better missile lmao, and rwr has what effect on fox2s? I don’t think that was even added yet. The mig21smt/mf still lost all its energy in a turn back then too, and the bis was added much later literally like a year almost and conspiracy theories about missiles because you’re bad in a jet in funny.
