I would love to see what the K/D average stats are for the EVENT.
Took me about ~3-6 games in the USA to finish each Pass
Took me 2 games for RU for each Pass
It was def a one-sided game mode for sure…

No.
Thank god we don’t have stats, finally an event where people can at least partially have fun and earn in-game currency.

OSA said no to fun, so did gaijin by reducing points so they can make more money

The score nerf was a nerf to players specifically.

Yes.
It’s called russian bias. The reserve Mig23 has better radar and missiles than the reserve F4 they gave us. The AI russian SPAAs are much, much better than the AI NATO SPAAs. They are incredibly precise at short range, while being able to snipe you from kilometers. Noticed how russian jets can stay high in the sky without ever dying ? :)
Of course, all of this has been made or purpose. Notice how often Russia wins since they forbid the american f14 ? :)

I play exclusively the MiG23MLD in the event. When I fly high I get sniped by HAWK systems almost instantly when I am not being r***ed by F-4S/J with their ARH behaving AIM-7F and PD radars. Also the only F-14 blocked is the F-14A IRAIF lmao
also the MiG gets 15 CM salvos, as opposed to the many many more the F-4 gets :) I know they’re LCM’s but it’s still only a max of 15 missiles avoided and those AIM-7F seem to ignore the chaffs
I have a few points - nerf the damn Osa-AKM’s they steal all of my kills and I’m sure they’re an even bigger problem for BLUFOR

The difference is NATO side gets sniped instantly against short range russian SPAAs (OSAs). And against BUKs too.
I never saw a russian jet flying high in the short range NATO SPAAs zone and getting sniped.
when I am not being r***ed by F-4S/J
This is not the reserve Phantom they gave us. The reserve Phantom is the F-4E, the crappy one. It has worse radar and worse missiles than the Mig + goes slower.
I don’t quite think that you realize the Roland’s are just as bad as the Osas. I have hit the Roland’s with a 5kt ATOMIC BOMB got them to stroll out of that fat ass explosion and shoot me down
btw, if the F-4E loses the 9L, I’d throw out the MiG23MLD for a fishbed anytime, but right now the P2W F-4S/J are massive problems and make the MiG23 vs F4E discrepancy look tiny. Due to gaijins AMAZING coding skills there is 12.0 aircraft in the lower bracket and no 11.7’s
anyways I should probably sleep it’s 11:00 pm for me

I’m in 1v1 dog fight , it lasted a good time… no SAM shoots, they play solitaire.
The damn time i take his tail and push guns Flaktroll takes my kill. I mean it could have helped me when i was sweating to reverse the MiG , but why do this ? Make sure i won’t take the kill , it went berserk.
And ofc , the next second i take an invisible OSA to the face.

I’m not kidding I die to FlaRakShits way more than I do to planes. It doesn’t help that I pull a R-24T up on a F-5E(easiest kill possible) then he gets smacked by an Osa-AKM from the middle of fucking nowhere and I eat a Roland 3 to the face from a convoy cruising through an atomic bomb while firing on the move and shooting 3 missiles in 5 seconds

And the guy wants kill stats. Most SAMs would embarass us. The average AI SAM would have 2-3x better than the best player in A-A.
On the topic, i don’t believe anything used by players would have better KD than F-4J/S and this event.

And there is ppl saying the F-4S should be the free plane US gets. My top 3 deaths are to: FlaRakPz1(using invisible Roland’s), F-4S/J using AIM-7F like ARH missiles and locking ppl on the deck all the time, and lastly, F-4S/J again

Im also pretty interested to see them. To consider if its me who is THAT bad with the F-4E and AIM-7, or is it just the plane that is bad. Swear to god i believe i made more kills with the cannon rather than with AIM-7. They are impossible to lock and swing with result
The exact same thing happens to USSR players. Et within 10km to a Roland and you die. They track you through terrain and you can barely notch them.
HAWKs hit you as soon as you climb above 2km no matter where you are on the map and miraculously they still manage to hit you at an altitude of less than 10m.

Wonder what would have have happened if the Russians got the mig23m instead and us a normal f4e
its like 1-2 planes per match that arent F-4Es in the enemy team. ANd they break heads of them MIGs with the Sparrows, thats true. But them F-4Es which are like most of the players of the team are to use the cannons as other munition is barely usable.
I use 4J and i can guarantee you it shouldn’t be the free plane. 3-4 of these can wreck havoc if played good… an entire team would just make the game turkey shots. The other side just wouldn’t play.
On the other hand F-4E it’s kinda meh. No MTI even means good luck in shooting something down with 7s in the lows…
If they had realistic 4E, though… It is known that the radar had a limited something like MTI , CAA was the name. In game it doesn’t… If they cared to give that it would be really equivalents.
As he says
And going 9Ls and guns in that event if you aren’t behind your own SAMs means you get OSA-ed.
If we suppose they locked the planes to ONLY 23M and F-4E …that’s a maybe. But if you take on account that 23M doesn’t have the CM count needed for the event (with all those threats ) , it’s not that close. If somehow and realistically (i don’t know if it even could carry more )could give more CMs
Then it would be more balanced than F-4J vs MLD or 4E vs MLD.

Oh yea forgot it only had 12 counter measures yikes
The only thing that has more is the ml which solves nothing
They could…just update 4E for the event. It’s not some alien capability it didn’t have…And even in RB 11,3 with CAA , won’t be that OP. CAA had limited range anyway. 11.7 ML/MLA/MLD can just use MTI at more range. The range was more in the 9km range.
And as they brought 9L for the event, 4E could carry 7F in reality. They could make them pretty equivalent.
What happened to the mig21 cm pod
PS No seams to be a strict mig21 thing
Couldn’t that be used on the mig23m
