Major Update "Seek & Destroy" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 4)

If it got that loadout, I could see the AV-8B+ not moving down to 12.0 at any point. But I still reckon the FA2 wouldnt move till after the update, not before. It’s really hard to argue balance based upon dev server.

I do hope the shar FA2 should drop in br I hope to 11.7 since I dont think it should fight any of the13.0 out there, and to the people saying what about the 10.7s lets put it this way, at most 25% of a team can be in a down br if you are playing the 10v10. That is only about 2 players assuming they round down or 3 if they round up.

considering the popularity of top tier british air I highly doubt you will see more then 1 Shar a game lucky if you do see a shar at all in a 10.7

They could remove it’s aim-9m and move it to 11.7.

I said that but considering how bad the 9L is for some reason, I would honestly take the normal F3 at least its got a bit of speed for its br and its lower lol

i think this can be a good idea, So that it won’t be too strong also won’t be too weak

Its tricky. 9Ls being 1 flare defeats most of the time. Everyone would just run 4x AMRAAM instead. So i almost think it needs Aim-9ms to nerf AMRAAM a little, make them worthwhile. But even 12.0 would probably do. Yes you could still see 13.0s. but in a full uptier, its a minority and most things you;ll fight will have SARH not ARH.

Though, with F-15C now getting 8x AMRAAM… I think we could seriously do with most if not all 13.0s moving to 13.3.

Yeah ik lol 8 of them

honestly would be fine with the Shar at 12.0 as long as the top br became 13.3, at least for 10.7s they completely out preform the shar, that difference is even greater when you face a 13.0 jet that has the same weapons, an just way better flight performance

Yeah and I think the FA2 is going to be like the Gr7. When the Gr7 was added it was super easy to get an ACE and then 1-2 months later. It was so badly over BRed it got Aim-9Ms and even then I think its still over BRed.

FA2 might do well whilst people learn how to counter AMRAAM. but as soon as they have and a new “balance” has been struck in ARB. The FA2 will be a free kill for most

I wonder who was the awesome guy that thought it was cool to ask GJ to add another Viggen to the game just to receive Aim-120s? When the only way a Viggen obtains Mod D classification is full Aim-120 integration?

Is that how it works in the Swedish tech tree? To receive Aim-9Ls you must suggest a new Viggen come to the game? To receive Aim-120s for the Viggen you must suggest GJ release that same Viggen a second time? What color will it come in? Gray or Splinter?

Well, I guess it’s a good thing I am a Soviet main, GJ will randomly update aircraft with a brand-new missile because they feel that the win rate is lacking when no one even asked lol. Forget waiting to receive the same aircraft or even until next update.

Can’t go a day without people trying to nerf my F-4F from its great 10.7 slot to a worse slot.

missing a CM less ViggenA with Bare metal camo

This, It scares me

The bare metal is actually my favorite.

They did add the Viggen B, and people complained that there were no countermeasures so Gaijin made it the Viggen C.

I mean it is true that germany never had 9Js so that was a balancing thing gaijin did to make it not terrible

I wonder if we will see a typhoon this December.

With 8x AMRAAM slinging F-15Cs we are gunna have to sooner rather than later. Nothing else in Britain, Germany or Italys arsenal even comes close to SU-27SM or F-15Cs level of ARH missiles.

I did not refer to the B? Did I somewhere? I meant Modification D is full Aim-120 integration I am having a laugh because GJ has not given the aim-120 to it.

But apparently is considering or did at one time of forcing another one down our throats. To increase incentive to GE it if you really want it of course. Or be our guest enjoy grinding out another D.
