Lets talk about F15E and why we need decompression at Top Tier Air RB asap

F15E is accessible to more and more players, and its getting more and more braindead.

The usual F15E player climbs immediately to 10k, go close to Mach2, sling their loadout, RTB, while going Mach2.

Repeat.

If u r able to catch one of those and get on their 6, they simply fly around because u cant do anything if the player has at least 2 braincells. Its literally untouchable.

ATM there is no counter to that type of playstyle.

I do not need mention that these things face 12.7 very often, and what do you do while having none Fox3 or even the countermeasures to touch it?

Eurofighter is the perfect counter to the f-15e

I fly both, F15E and F15i, full downtier max 20% ish.

1/5th or 1/4th is imo “often”, but thats everyone’s personal pov.

i mean when u r in a top tier vehicle u dont care, but if u face them every 5th or 4th match, its most likely the bigger pain.

Eeeeehhh put it to 13.0. I’m sure the matchmaker can take one more busto plane right

Sure, these are more downtiers than in lower tiers, but if you have in a 12.7 plane 25% full uptiers, it’s 30% of uptiers you have in lower tiers. I would call that a sweet spot.

Nervertheless, decrompession is needed.

Simple solution make a segregated US only queue where they either only play against themselves or bots, so that they can have their plane depicted as they are in the very realistic documentary called “Top Gun”, and the rest of the people can finally play the game.

Its the f14 all over again

The other problem is mixed battles + gaijin using WR data for balancing. Tell me in what world does that make sense when 80% of both teams are US? There hasn’t been a single match in ARB the past idk how many years were the US hasn’t lost, they lose and win every match because… they are on both teams.

Also aim120 and r77 slingers should not be the same BR, but what can you do? The crappy MM system we have means someone is always losing, r77 would just crush fox 1 slingers. Its absolutely pointless to climb in anything russian right now, even if we had a plane as good as the F15E because the missiles are so ass that you are never going to be able to engage and put someone on the defensive first, which is probably the most important thing for BVR. ARB spotting mechanics also makes russia suffer because of that + the above.

SU-27sm is more overpowered ist have fucking 12 rockets you can wipe whole lobbys with that shit. I hope they rather nerf it than the F-15E

lol
Su-27SM was buffed with ACM range, but 12 missiles doesn’t make it more powerful.

You are right it makes it a lot worse xD

What missile is available to that? AMRAAM still or what unique missile does it have?

The only unique missiles would be broken and only with later variants of the typhoon

The meteor? Great, another AMRAAM plane, I wanted more indigenous unique stuff.

I hope the eurofigther is NOT better than the SU-27sm, it would fuck the meta completely

unique weapons are work and devs don t like work
