Possibly. I thought there was something specific in this update but after rereading the patch notes I couldn’t find a mention of a change.
Either way, if this is the new direction for SPAA efficacy the action both needs to be rewarded and encouraged.
With only 8 missiles for most top tier SPAA and no way to rearm it is a heavy investment especially when a missile isn’t a guaranteed kill if the enemy maneuvers properly.
They planned the rewards for shooting down stuff in the dev road
mmm, nope, see my post where allready explained why not.
And besides, I prefer MT version over ML anytime. ML is only if you dont have enough spawn points for MT.
VT-1’s 3 different country has em , adats is 10 sharp, and then there’s TOR-M1.
Only way how to defend air in gepard if not able to go hide, and I havent played it in a while. So it’s not new, long as your radar locks it, you can aim it. GBU’s are just somehow indestructible on missiles.
And therefor very out of range.
Range 12KM, but this doesn’t specify guaranteed launch range. Either way at the edge of possible engagement and only on one nation.
Well, that’s the life of Pantsir player nowdays. Only that you got 12 missiles, and a lot of F&F slingers on top tier. Including helos and jets. Nice that you pointed out that maneuvering properly.
The Pantsir is not outranged by any CAS presently ingame unless Russia is on both teams.
To be honest the the XM1069 is fine where it is even though it can’t hit past 10km it one of the only spaa that can kill tanks reliably(technically it is a anti tank missile carrier) , but they do need to add another spaa that has more range better SAM Missiles and better optics. The Pansir has great optics and is able to lock and shoot air crafted that have just spawned. Also the sp cost for the xm is like mbt vs only 90 for the pansir
2S38
Being lowered to 11.3 would not harm any vehicle at 10.3
Yes the Pantsir and ITO are currently the only two competitive SPAAs
That tank is busted it’s a TD, Spaa, Light tank and MBT all at the same time.
Great idea and add another spaa at 11.7. What’s weird is you can radar lock with the xm is that how it is in irl or just Gaijin balance.
I assume you mean can’t? It lacks an ACQ radar. I don’t know why it wasn’t given one IRL when contemporary SHORAD had it. Likely due to the messed up notion of a “kill everything vehicle” instead of a dedicated platform.
What if they didn’t add any top tier spaa for USA but instead gave USA HRMS(anti radiation missles) idk if I’m spelling it right, but would that make USA to O.P.
US already has competitive CAS the answer to CAS isn’t more CAS it’s changing how CAS is dealt with as clearly Gaijin is at the end of their rope with current methods.
I think another option (if Gaijin refuses to add an SPAA higher than 10.3 for the US) would be to cut the spawn points of all US fighters with only air-to-air missiles in the loadout by 25-50%. It makes sense contextually due to US doctrine and would actually make the “just spawn a fighter, bro” argument actually make sense. To make this work better, if this was implemented in game there should be a random fighter spawn option like in naval so that people who haven’t grinded the same amount through the air tree could still help out their team.
Then I want USSR teams to be 40 players Vs 10 nato tanks, to fit the doctrine
Doctrine was 1.5 : 1
10 tanks vs 40 tanks but also 40 planes vs 10 planes)
15 (M1A1SA and later) Abrams models to 3 T-80U, 10 T-72B3, and 2 T-90A would be fun lol
Nah dude, I have both the F-16C and the Su-27 and I gotta say I enjoy the flanker much MUCH more.
Both are still fun, but the consistency of the R-27 is amazing.
R-73s are also just hilarious missiles
Read what in the thread?
If the missile is used within 10-12KM it’s not an issue. That’s within range of majority SPAA currently ingame. The missiles aren’t overpowered because of speed advantage over other laser guided munitions at the BR range. They’re overpowered because they can fire outside twice the range of all SPAA ingame, even the Pantsir can’t hit the plane for a good 4KM.
