Wait so is the tesser still dropping today?
We are aware. Its just that their reasoning falls apart when you look at the Su-25SM3

It explains why mmV and the “ripple fire and go find their own target” is considered OP. But not FnF like KH-38, AGM-65, Martel, PGM, etc etc are like currently in game

probably yeah
Again, there is more too it than just that :)
Please read the answer in full. It explains in detail why Brimstone is different and would not be balanced.

Maybe they will atleast add HOSBO glide bombs to the Tornado IDS ASSTA1
Hope so
So another NATO system nerfed so it isn’t OP. But I can get skunked by a su25 outside of AA range as it is right now

Because Brimstone F&F doesn’t work like any of those.

Nor does Martel?
it is not TV guided and is technically modeled ahistroically for the sake of balance

but but but the SM3 only has 4 missiles!
yeah it makes zero sense to me, Russians have no SPAA to be scared of and on top of that have the best super-long range FAF missiles that are also very fast.
Seems balanced to me /s

so instead you made one of the primary features of the aircraft almost useless if the enemy has any kind of long range SAM… I guess it was to good to be true, I would have rather they just made it so smoke blocked the seeker then force a limitation on the missile that defeats the entire purpose of the missile

Getting AH-64D was a waste of RP, SL and even GE (crew) for me, hahah.
Hellfires take 17 business days to reach their target; and, if you manage to stay alive that long and the missile manages to connect with the target (didn’t lose line of sight, didn’t maneuver too much, didn’t take cover, didn’t smoke, etc), chances are it won’t even kill the target.
AH-64D is the only helicopter I ever got- hoping to boost the underwhelming American lineup- but what a huge disappointment xD.
Meanwhile, it’s fine for EC665s and company to launch fire-and-forget missiles from behind mountains and Russian helicopters slinging Vikhrs through smoke.
EDIT: Turns out they will not have any FNF capabilities at all…
I wonder- couldn’t these be implemented as traditional/basic FNF instead of LOAL?
That way, they would remain balanced while still bringing new capabilities… otherwise, these munitions are just pointless.

The moment I saw the GR.4 I assumed the brimstones wouldn’t get their MMW seeker as an option in game because it would be laughably broken due to the quantity this aircraft can carry. Surprised to see people actually wanted what would basically be the equivalent of fox 3 gameplay to CAS in top tier GRB.

NGL I agree with you. Brimstone can find it’s own target’s, all the player would need to do is fly over the battlefield l, press fire 9 times and each missile will find and kill it’s own target

Please do tell the Devs we, the players, would like to tell them exactly what you think we’d like to tell them
My big Q on that though is simply, you guys made Martel fire and forget, so IDK what the problem is to do it for brimstone, making them into mini fire and forget mavericks needing a physical lock on the target? Exact same logic/reasoning.
I also want to ask if the plane will be able to guide attacks on multiple targets, or is it going to be 1 at a time only? If its 1 at a time only, I can see people rathering mavericks for quick succession firing from a Harrier still as an example alternate weapon system.
