"Missile Shooting Missiles" have the potential to ruin top tier gameplay if it gets popular

When are they gonna fix this crap. Game is very unenjoyable when there are losers who just shoot at missiles all day

I mean you can’t blame someone for using this tactic, you literally are just punished for not doing so, you inevitably end up in a worse position due to having to be defensive, also its highly beneficial to the su30sm2 so I doubt it’s going anywhere

Genuinely ive been taking dumb rocket pods just to deal with missile interception. Oh? You wanna counter projectiles? Here have a dozen extra targets.

Its also very funny against tomcat spam, since they lack NCTR, you can just use rockets to make them waste a significant amount of missiles on nothing.

APKWS on the Typhoon is looking more and more appealing :D

70mm rockets dont show up on radars consistently sadly. Ive mostly been using zunis. Like on the swiss F/A-18, since it runs into a ton of tomcats and it can carry 8 single shot zunis.

Ah damn. I guess its a use for Brimstones then .

I mean that might work, but the velocity will be wayyyy off so you won’t fool everyone

yeah man sure whatever you say :D

Lord have mercy. This and drone scouting are ruining the high tiers matches of this game

against AESA and PESA radars it may work

People are doing it at 12.0, its joever, F1C spammers shooting down sparrows with magic 2’s, JH7’s with their magic 2 copies…

This game is genuinely singular in how insanely stubborn the players are at refusing to learn how to play it and trying their hardest to find shortcuts. I have a growing and intense contempt for anyone who plays this game because of behavior like this.

McM is a crutch for people incapable or unwilling to notch.
Cant wait for it to be nerfed drastically.

will never happen just like multipath because trash player that buy its way to top gets another way to survive more than 3min

Remember before they added air spawn? There would always be one or two bozos crashing immediately by doing a cobra or failing to take off before their gear blew.

i may get banned from this and i just dont care, but play ace combat instead. AC8 is just about to hit the corner and if you preorder it you will get acess to ace combat zero first time on PC.

Thats what i will do. F-14D in WT was a complete disapointmen, instead of buying it, i will buy a whole new game thats way better.

such a fun mechanic, being forced to dump your whole missile loadout for one guy. Just to rtb and going it all over again in the next 5 minutes

In my opinion, interception of an air to air missiles should be changed in a way that it is not always guaranteed to kill. Success chance of the interception should be tied to speed of the target projectile and kills must be scored via direct impact only.

So you will in average need two or three missiles for a single successful projectile interception, thus eliminating the pure MCM based combat yet in dire situations can be used it as a poor man’s self defense.

Nah, well deserved, notching doesn’t do nothing half the time. Not to mention these seekers are so strong in short range tracking another one is possible IRL.

Notching works though and in fact it works much better than it should be too. maybe do some self reflection?

in mcm usually whoever has more missiles automatically wins. when you are jousting against someone with more missiles, you can still win the engagement by just defending more often than your opponent, turning the fight into a dogfight at the end to use your guns or switching into ir missiles. in mcm you just click at the missile icons on the tws screen and keep headbutting the other guy with less missiles. what an engaging gameplay!
