ndeed, it’s truly disheartening. Player experience seems secondary—maximizing profits takes priority. XD As the Chinese proverb warns: ‘Draining the pond to catch all the fish’ (竭泽而渔) — a short-sighted strategy that kills long-term sustainability.
Oh wow, the same thing every fighter at this BR deals with! Some fighters even only get TWO rear aspect missiles, in fact this isn’t even uncommon! womp womp
(MiG-21bis is a higher BR)
bringing up the fact the J-7D has to lose missiles to use napalm is so weak of an argument lol
This is the first correct thing you said
Man, my Kfir Gderot would kill to get four amazing rear aspect missiles and 10.7 BR. That’d be a massive buff.
J-7D is definitely undertiered when it’s better than 11.0 fighters of the same playstyle but is lower BR.
Oh, friend—since when do you get to decide what’s ‘correct’? Are you implying this is about the F-5? Then let me ask you: Why can the F-5 only carry two missiles when it has usable hardpoints?
I was comparing the MiG-21bis to explain why the J-7D deserves a lower BR. At no point did I suggest the J-7D should lose missile capacity to carry incendiary bombs—it doesn’t even have that option! The core argument here is why the J-7D remains at 10.7, and I’m explaining the rationale. So what’s your actual point?
And you, my friend, care only about your own gameplay experience. You haven’t even bothered to understand how Gaijin balances vehicles or what factors they consider. All I see is you using sarcasm and bitterness to oppose anything that doesn’t align with your views.
Perhaps you should buy the J-7D during the next sale and actually play a few matches with it. Watching kill compilations won’t help you understand reality—though since you already own the A-5C, I’m certain you’d never bother.
No? What?
Yes, in weird ways that don’t actually make any logical sense. Needing to drop missiles to use napalm is NOT a valid reason for a lower BR.
Everything I do is objective, I don’t do as you say. It’s not my nature.
How convenient—cherry-picking only what suits your narrative to reply to. Ah, classic adversarial behavior, my friend.
It’s just how I reply? Stay mad I guess
Really? This is your posting style? Just like that? With zero adversarial intent?
yes I just don’t like writing paragraphs and prefer to respond directly to statements made
Very well, my friend. Language is a natural barrier to our mutual understanding, and I apologize for that.
Since J-7D moved to 11.0, it should no longer face F-14A. Unless you play in SIM, AIM-7F is not that hard to dodge without using Multipath. The only issue is R-24, but that’s it.
And moved down to 10.7 even more for somehow.
Which is one of best rear-aspect IR missiles entire the game…
Rather, the J-7D can be seen as a side grade of the MiG-21bis because of its IR missiles.
In the case of the MiG-21bis, it has one of the worst all-aspect missiles in the game, although its performance itself is better, in the case of the J-7D, it has one of the best rear-aspect missiles, although its performance is worse.
And most aircraft with 11.0 BR have x2 or x4 missiles, just like F-104G, F-4F, F-5E, Kfir Canard, AV-8S late, Sea Harrier FRS.1, AJS37(depends loadouts),
Neither should the BR have been one step lower.
wdym draken BR doesnt need to be 1 step lower. It doesn’t have any meaningful CM to save itself.
I mean J35XS.
Unless you are being launched IRCCM missiles or spammed with a lot of missiles, 12 flares is enough, especially Draken has large calibers one and drop single flares per 1 push. Not even need to take chaffs.
At least, I have never had a problem with it unless it was in those situations.
Cool? Doesn’t stop it from being bad.
My point of confusion with its BR reduction is that when I flew it at 11.0 I would still frequently get 5+ kills a game and never felt over tiered, even against the 12.0 aircraft, mostly of which were f4s and the 11.7 mig23ML.
When I get downtiers to 9.7 in the j7d I can comfortably go 7v1 and win. As seen in my previously posted video. There is almost nothing they can do whatsoever.
Decompression is so critical at this br range, it’s a nightmare for 9.0-10.0 aircraft right now
Since when it drops one? It used to be two per push so 6 missiles max.
Last few month afaik.
Congratulations, and you have people who get plenty of eliminations in top tier using the L3, so should we move that thing up?
Don’t see how you came to this from what he said. He’s saying the J-7D is untouchable to lower BRs while being incredibly lethal, and it is.
J7D is a none issue.
Theres so many worse examples of questionable BRs that have way more negative effect on others.
MIG 15 vs MIG 19/ 21 is most obvious WTF.
Why has the BR got to be a 1.0+/-
0.7+/- would fix most issues
