"Hornet's Sting" Update Trailer!

Same, i think to many players look at the vehicles during a sort of bland trailer and think “is that it?” while missing all of the really cool things in the background.

Kifir C.10 isn’t domestic? Hello?

Tbf there was nothing at all during the SU-30 parts your either saw land or sky is the background and the jets weren’t doing anything special.

That is learned in like 5-10 minutes, so shouldn’t be a big problem.

yes, still many players just use the leaklist and complain, and are disappointed when sth is missing or nothing more is added…

yeah like last time when they put out SU34 there was a whole short story about it
this time there were nothing at all, kinda perfunctory to me

That is certainly not learned in 10 minutes, its not just pressing 2 buttons and instant win. To be reasonably effective you need to know what each radar mode does, and how to notch properly. As well as knowledge about your enemys plane, their performance and kit and how to deal with them.

Like where the Gripen-E is.

the only thing they would learned in 10 minutes is how to drop bomb during take off and blow up half of the team

Yeah all of that fits in a 10 minutes video.
Ground has their premiums, don’t see why air couldn’t. I’m interested in more modern aircraft and this is why I want more advanced premiums.

You’re overestimating the skill floor for top tier air.

Trust vectoring is to my knoweledge not a thing in warthunder yet (0:18)
Possible Grom-1’s (0:27)
Possible HARM missiles, it looks like they are going for a ground target (0:45) (Edit: I’ve been corrected, those are AIM-7)
All the updated maps.

And you remember all that after one go and are instantly perfect? The knowledge about the planes at the br, how to deal with them and how to survive is achieved by training and not just looking at a 10 minute video.

Video gives you theoretical knowledge and then you need experience to improve on that base.
You don’t need to be perfect just to play top tier lol.

The only reason why it is so low is because Premium players who bombed their way up there took it down with them. Theres just so many bad players at toptier, even failing to multipath sometimes on flat ground.

So you still start at 0, you just know turn 90°, fly low and press like 3 buttons nothing more

That’s even better for new people.
There’s no reason not to add 13.0+ premiums.

as long as it comes to Finland so I can grind my Swedish air tree I’m fine with it 😂

The Hornet killing the MiG-21 at the end of the trailer suggests that we might get an interesting PvE mission or campaign, or it could mean that the F/A-18 will have a BR of 9.7?

nah it isnt just about the skill floor is also about human nature
I present you with this
