I think you have completely misunderstood my post, I’m responding to someone who claimed that the premium Su-30s are as good as those planes and should be the same BR or close too it, how am I supposed to explain why he is incorrect with out pointing out why they are higher BRs? I suppose I could just do the usual an hurl the “(X-nation) main trash” insults instead of actually formulating an argument to support my opinion but I figured the later was more constructive.
yes but not as easy
It is an issue as it limits the number of target you can engage in BVR before you have to go defensive, 2 vs 8 is a fairly significant difference.
Yes which I have said they should get repeatedly in this thread as they are simply too strong for 13.3. I am pointing out in the post why 14.0/14.3 is too high without farther decompression.
My 1st post in this thread.
Even in the post you replied to I argue that they should go up despite better planes at the same BR:
I mean ideally the whole game needs massive decompression and the power jump from SARH to ARH is just massive, just look at the BR difference between the F-2 ADTW and the F-2A, the only air to air difference is the AAM4s.
Nah, they are NATO so its fair and balanced, only Russia can be OP (joking… but a number of people on here seem to hold that opinion)
Eg phantom at 12.0 can fight the 12.7 f18s with little.issue. one is obviously much better but its still a fairish fight
F18 vs any 13.3 not so much. Same BR incresee but the jump.from fox 1 to fox 3 is impossible to balamce IMO and we all just cope praying for a down tier lol
This is a fair point. Pretty much every aircraft with ARHs need to go up at least 0.3 BR, if not more.
It’s just such a titanic leap in capability over previous vehicles that rely utterly on SARH and IR. Vehicles with ARHs get complete control of the engagement from 30 km out until point blank range.
The fact that there’s just a 0.3 BR difference between stuff like the Mirage 4000 and vehicles with 6/8 top tier equivalent ARH missiles is patently absurd. There needs to be enough of a gap that these fighters have at least a reasonable chance of getting the play the game, rather than spend the entire match notching and praying that someone messes up and lets them kill them.
The latest premiums added to the game are under BR; the F18A should be 12.7 with 2 more SAHR, just like it was on the dev server; the F18C early should be 13.0 with AIM7P and AIM9M; and the SU30s should be 13.7.
These planes are doing a lot of damage to the game in the current situation.
