Planes would not be safe from this either.
Wait wait wait that sounds fun. The only time i can shot on russians hell yes.
Well, in tanks it might be different
But in planes less massive problems
Do you want to fight an F-22 in an F-5…?
How about an F-35?
That would also mean the M1A1 would be facing the original T-80 lol.
As far as I’m aware, Gaijin is adjusting based on consumer trends. Why do you think they’ve been heavily pushing out modern vehicles despite lack of technical accuracy? It is because there is heavy demand, and money is flowing there. To say they aren’t delivering what “modern” players are asking for sounds incredibly inaccurate, considering we on the forums are a minority of the player base.
You and others were constantly told by other forumers with valid reasons why a historical matchmaker does not fit the state of the game for normal public matches excluding events. You disagreed and give your own definition of what War Thunder should be per your expectations and defended your position, only for an employee to explain what others have been telling you already. Unless the employee is a buffoon too, you would do well to reevaluate what you think you understand about the game. I can assure you are mixing some of your wants as game needs.
Because, as @SinisterIsRandom is showing as examples, it would be heavily unbalanced. You were even told that by the employee, and now you’re dismissing them as stupid.
Well, most of modifications like that doesnt have place in year balance.
But still can be funny
Year and Balance do not coexist. Reality is not fair. Games can be.
Reality can be fair in part of cases.
But main trouble - theres always one nation that ahead from others
Well, if they want Historical Balance as Russia, China, etc, I’m sure the NATO mains won’t complain :)
No, not really. For every Sherman 75 your Tiger can see, there’s always a T32E1. Would you enjoy using a Panzer IV against a T32E1?
How about a T-72B firing 3BM42 versus a SEPv2 firing M829A2?
I already described case where Su-27 against tomcat. Which balanced and historical at same time
An Su-27 wouldn’t just see a Tomcat, it would see a Super Raptor.
The Su-27 already struggles against much younger F-15 models. You do realize the F-15 was around when the Mig-23 was, right?
If anything, NATO mains are the ones being held back.
That’s equipment that is not a justification. By your logic, if I took an F-4E and gave it the equipment it was first given then it should serve along with the F-100 Super Sabre. They both came from the same period and their loadout coming from around the same period should serve in the same battle ratings.
But also going by your logic then the F-4G “Wild Weasel” should be serving alongside the F-14 Tomcat.
It’s an F-4 Phantom II that cannot perform in combat against an F-14 and an F-100 cannot perform against an F-4E. The F-14 and F-4 in this context are superior in every aspect.
So no loadouts are not a justification for where a vehicle should be ranked and placed at battle ratings. They should be fighting what their capable of fighting but only capable of dominating depends on the pilot.
MIG-21’s vs F-4’s is perfectly fine. The SU-27->F-15 Eagle
MIG-23/MIG-27 and to an EXTENT MIG-31 equal foe to the ->F-14. However, that said the MIG-31 isn’t in the game but I’m gonna mention it since it would be somewhat relatively on the same plate.
Why?
I realize what will be, literally gulf war
Should and “Su-27 and F-14B” slightly different
Because the F-14 is a Naval Aircraft. The Su-27 doesn’t have an aircraft carrier to launch off of.
So no, a fight would not be realistic between the two under most circumstances.
Secondly, while an F-14 could see the Su-27, it could also see Mig-21 and other lesser aircraft. An Su-27 would never stand a chance in a realistic fight between it and an F-14.
And your Su-27 would also see F-22, F-35, F15 (all), and much more.
F-14 can be used as fighter, like killing lybian Su-22 in 1981. But not Su-22, Su-27 in that case
Btw, most of soviet aircrafts starting from mig-21
As I stated the F-14 and Su-27 are not equals. Does not matter what variant you’re using there on different plains of existence. Now with that carry on with your discussion with Baron.
