I am Complaining about the J-7D and disagree with its BR reduction

Literally first game of J-7D in today…

yep, don’t know where he gets off saying J-7D is rare

I see im not the only one whose screenshots come out all pixelated and blurry lo

I assume that’s just image compression on forum.

It happens usually for saving storage space on the server

I’m not a fan of 10.0 range, and all I ever get is uptiers at 11.0, but hey, at least people are attempting to play a different nation than the Big Three. At least the Temu MiG 21 requires some skill to use over spamming AIM 7s and then crashing.

Went in with the J35X (I could care less if I got crew locked), and yeah, three J-7Ds. Hope they flew well, I didn’t bother looking. I hate that thing and I already suffered Sweden enough.

i’m saying pre-sliced whitebread doesn’t have the same oomph as unsliced loaf.

this is diverse. usually in my lobby at least 4 would be F-5C. only having 2 is ;luck.

Okay, it’s the best thing since Mao liberated China from the evil clutches of Western and Japanese imperialism. I do not know too much about China, I am more into Vietnam to be honest.

not even talking about 10.7 at this point?

no no no. i’m just saying that “sliced bread” as an expression of “such advancement” is kinda crazy. don’t people back in the day of oil paper wrapped wonderbread day doesn’t notice how unnaturaly dense their bread are?

It was a convenience thing. Why carve the bread yourself when someone else evenly sliced the bread for you? Sure, it might feel and taste weird, but hey, you didn’t have to bake it, you didn’t have to even cut it, it’s all right there.
Western inventions have always been built around convenience. You can claim that is what made us lazier, but it is the truth. Why work hard when you can work smart? Why carry a hundred kilos of bricks when you can throw it into a wagon sort of thing.

you can have an opinion but not state facts when you did not play it tbh ^^

It aint that good of a plane when someone is aware of you being around come close in a dogfight and you will suffer once you lose speed

you cry about good missiles but the a-10 has all aspect aim-9L
enemy also has aim-9g which is a missile that spaded 80% of US tech tree for me :)
italy has premium AMX which you can encounter. Also aim-9L on other aircraft.
France has magic’s which are very good missiles
Sweden very good missiles as well rb-74 30g all aspect.

I don’t have to play something to have a very well educated opinion on it.

It’s an overall package. It has fantastic missiles AND a fantastic FM for the BR.

Ok for example… same BR is the Mirage 3E which has… less flares… worse flight model… worse missiles (magics but only 2x) so where is the balance?

Unless you try rate fighting it is still an excellent dogfighter.
Do some people really believe that rate fighting is the only form of dogfighting?

They do, because all they know is hold S

nope but in this game where you have a furrball 90% of the time a rate fight is the only thing you can do to either score a last second kill or not lol… this aint DCS

Scissors? you will die.
Energy fight (maybe climbing?) in a furrball? SARH missiles will find you easily without ground clutter

only reliable option is a boom and zoom tactic which works but only for a while once your team loses the furrball you are screwed.

Whether you join the furball or not is entirely up to you.
You can still earn a consistent kill without being part of the furball.

Force 1vs1 situation as you possible. Jet RB is not as messed up as AAB, so there is plenty of room for that.(It is mostly what I do when I play MiG-21s)

Also, most SARHs are easy to dodge with single/few chaffs unless you face against Viggen or MiG-23ML/MLD or whatever.
