gib US A-4 with shrike, please i beg of you
Yeah, ngl OG nuke thunder even with the cracked out OSAs was better imo, and yet again nuke planes suck
I just got pilot sniped by a m42 duster at 7km.
this is ridiculous
Considering their limitations band wise, a4e could indeed get arm. Same for su17m2. Played ayit and its just cherry on top of already good kit, nothing gamebreaking (in grb).
exactly, it wouldn’t be game breaking, as the shrike kit it gets (at least for the early one in the US tech tree) which would be B-3B to B-6 can’t track the ZSU-23-4s radars, as there was no ARM made that could at the time, also it would make the squadron vehicle unique as the A-4B has access to everything the A-4E early has as well, making it only have 2 extra pylons that you can’t even mount AIM-9Bs to, they could also give the US a later sky hawk, either a F before or after the hump, or a M
as the Es were the first model of sky hawk to get the shrikes a year after they went into service, of which a year later it got walleyes, so the one we have can indeed use them as its at least a 1966 version of said aircraft not to mention the A-4E is a all around weaker aircraft than the Ayit
MiG-25BM
Tighter BR brackets needed theres things with no flares seeing aim-9L.
plus general problems of all the tryhards using F-5 fighters
as the MiG-27K and M are banned we could also ban the A-10s
can we then also ban the Su25 and the Su22
Does it he B-52 gets the ECM stuff it got in the first run?
the A10 is basically uncounterable unless they miss the head on atm. pretty broken
cant even spawn it but it wont have it in NE lol
The A-10 isn’t as big of an issue (for A2A) cause it’s in the 10.0-11.0 bracket. Both the T-2 and F-5E are much more annoying overall.
Making the bracket 10.0-11.3 might fix things as it would let competitive Chinese planes, Tornados, and the F-4E to be used, however this would kill 10.7 and below planes.
would also let me use the harrier T10 which is perfect for this BR, decent multirole that is pretty fun at low alt.
as long as MIG 23s stay banned
Early review
So far, all ive really done is Anti-Naval role, in the Buc S2B. But even there, things really need improvement.
-
More naval targets. Doesnt take long to clear out what few targets there actually are. So maybe have a naval convoy to also destroy at least, if not just straight increase the number of ships within the fleets
-
Naval kills need to reward more, this has been a long standing issue in every gamemode, but a destroyer shouldnt reward the same as a tank. Should reward a lot more
-
At least in the 10.0-11.0 bracket, the Ship AA could maybe do with being tuned up a little, make it a little more challenging. But just increasing the number and variety of ships might also do the same
-
Naval damage is still a bit inconsistant, Seagles do a lot of damage, so im killing ships fine, but its clear when a direct hit, that should do massive damage, doesnt result in a kill that there is an issue. I imagine that any other ASMs (if there are any actually usable at that BR range) are porbably fairing worse. So improvements to where missiles hit, what damage they do after impact and how effectively the Ai can repair certainly needs looking at
-
Carriers… They take waaaaaay too much to sink, multiple ASMs, loads of bombs, etc etc. They still keep going. They need a damage model overhaul, to make them more effected by critical flooding
-
Baku vs Forestal. Baku, nothing but VTOL can take off from, which means that Redfor players (which for some reason is ALWAYS Britain, cannot Carrier spawn. Forestal is catabar, so everything can take off from it without issue, So either make both carriers actually usable as spawn points or neither of them usable.
The best solution is the one that actually works in ASB. Rolling brackets.
Hard, never changing brackets, just screws over something, and makes something else really good.
If the brackets change, then what is good and what is bad, also changes.
And r73s
If you launch them from different angles sure, otherwise they will shoot them down with a single salvo
yea this is ridiculous.
