MIG-21 "lazur-m" ruined top tier

yes, i had little skill issue.

  1. JA37 cant bomb. And the MiG-21s that do carry bombs are heavier and lose 2 missile spots.
  2. I have finished grinding out most of the Swedish air tree recently, so I got experience playing all the J37 variants.

So:

  • Either I’m very good and can out turn every mig cuz I got skillz.
  • I’m mid and every single mig that engaged me was just a crap player.
  • You are suffering form a textbook example of skill issue

This isn’t a problem with the Mig as much as it’s a problem with the game mode in Air RB. If you nerf the Mig another plane is just going to take it’s place like the Phantom for example. Gaijin won’t nerf the premiums either because they sell, more so if they are good grinders. What needs to happen is the game mode needs a revamp. More targets, bases etc. to give strike aircraft something to do other than be fodder for fighters.

Edit: fixed stupid typos.

Kfir Canard, F-104S are faster than the Mig-21Bis.
Kfir has the incorrect in-game role, but it’s primarily a strike aircraft IRL.

so there is almost nothing what players can do? other than not playing strike aircraft

daam bro, i have only seen MIG.s stealing bases

It’s popularity of the tech tree more than anything.
The higher BR the faster the strike aircraft become, with F-111F and F-15E/I being the fastest in the game; yes, faster than the Mig-23ML.
However, popularity you won’t see F-111Fs as much as Mig-21s.

This must be bait right

My advice , and it’s not always easy to follow, is to change your mindset to make the game fun for yourself. If you enjoy it, you have fun playing while still grinding. If I play a strike plane I like to roleplay a pilot having to evade enemy fighters and hunt ground targets. I like to do it in my Rafale and F15I. I bring bomb loadouts and see how many ground targets I can kill before I die. With the Mirage F1C-200 I like to bomb bases then play a support role. If there aren’t bases left I hunt artillery and convoys and consider the match a success if I manage to destroy a few targets.

okay. also can one reason be at these MIG 21 premium players don’t care about when you mark base on map, bc almost every time USA players don’t try to race you when you are going to bomb target you marked first

thanks for a tip bro

Most of them are new players… And I would also bomb bases if I am trash at dogfighting and people stealing bases from me using a slower plane like the SU-17s

bait?

Base calling hasn’t been a request in years at this point.
I mark bases only when in the fastest thing to warn slower aircraft to pick a different base for example.

Times have changed.

yeah it is sad. it is good when you mark base , att slower aircraft would not waste their bombs, but these MIG users arent kind

29

What gonna happen if Gaijin increase the base to 8

Ok anyway. The word “top tier” is not used in this way.
