yes our Greek is suddenly just an average player in Jets.
if his wingman GerMit1313 is not there Greek is less dangerous as enemy. you always have to look GerMit there or not. if not, - all fire free on greek and finish him xD
Nice, aside from the MIG19 which is very cool you have not unlocked much that I’m familiar with yet. Harriers are also deadly when you get used to the thrust vectoring. Your event Mig23 is also very good, although I’m not sure what missiles that one get.
Get the Draken this sale, you’ll have the tech tree completed within a week ;). The Viggens are incredibly good and fun jets for sim, you have incredible radar at a low BR, makes it easy to track people down and pretty good armament too with a powerful engine.
We’ll see if he sticks around top-tier. I don’t blame him for trying something new lol, he has a ludicrous amount of hours in props.
I’ll have to wait for a discount. Unfortunately, the 30% is not for packages.
so it’s more expensive than the DCS Phantom.
at least 6 hours every day in 3 years. if I haven’t miscalculated.
If I understand the sale correctly, we will have this Premium time/GE vehicle sale now until the 6th, and then on the 6th the premium packs/vehicles go on sale - this is so that people can’t use the 2500 GE gained from premium packs to buy GE vehicles/premium time on sale. I’m planning on gifting my wingman the MIG23ML next week.
I’ve never understood how people have thousands of hours in games like that… That’s legit like a significant portion of your life… My most played game (DayZ) I have like 700 hours, but on average I have like 100-200 per game.
I did a test flight. I like the Viggen Saab. My F-4E cripple can’t keep up with it. the problem with the F-4E is that there is no second late F-4E from the post-Vietnam era to compete with the late upgraded MiG-21 and 23.
the viggen is good and I like it. but I’ll have to think about it again. because i didn’t really want to give the snail any money. I didn’t want to go shopping again until the snail pays more attention to the sim again. it will probably be a spontaneous camel decision.
it’s fascinating that a relatively small country like sweden builds such good fighter planes itself. screwed together by swedish hot girls.
that’s a generous reward for the wingman. seems like a good wingman?!
if I could earn real money with it, I would also fly 24 hours a day :D
I also have quite a few snail hours. But there are also many evenings when I don’t feel like playing snails. Arma Reforger, for example, is getting better and better. I think Arma 4 is going to be a really great thing in the future. but also very hungry for RAM performance.
Honestly I’m really apprehensive about buying stuff like premiums nowadays because I’m afraid Gaijin is just gonna ruin sim somehow, either by changing it for the worse or removing EC… If that were to happen I would not play this game ever again, I don’t enjoy RB or arcade whatsoever. Would be nice to at least know it’s going in the right direction, even if that means only one change per year.
Damn right. At one point during the Cold War Sweden with a population of 7 million had the world’s 4th largest air force IIRC.
When he’s not punting me into the lake yes lol
I like to keep my gaming to console and living room, I’d rather not sit at a desk to game like I’m at some office-job. Unfortunately those games are not out on PS5. Hell let loose was very fun though, enjoyed playing as commander.
F-5E BR was changed to 10.7 on one patch, while being not announced, and put back to 11.0 about 2 weeks later for no reason.
A lot of players deserve a good reputation for skill but Greek from what I’ve seen isn’t one of them. He largely flies overpowered aircraft such as the LF IX (although not so much since the FM update…) and the as mentioned already F4U-4B… an aircraft with a broken unstallable flight model so he can just pull stick to the nuts and win as the game holds his hand. All F4U pilots are like this because they’re practically using an Arcade FM in Sim. This is also why you see an abundance of them along with other American aircraft online.
The early P-51 can’t stall, the P-40 can’t stall, the P-47’s can’t stall (not sure about later models) you name it. The A7M1 deserved an honourable mention before as well. Nothing like clubbing Mk V Spitfires in that thing.
What did GJ do to it?
yes “following the roadmap” doesn’t help us at all because the snail doesn’t speak out about its plans for sim.
yes the worst horror scenario would be the message: “great news, sim is being deleted. EC will be converted to RB, hurraya!”
yes from that moment on I would be gone too.
I’ve never played HLL as a commander. unfortunately, the german servers are very strict. if I make a mistake there, I’m immediately suspended. I think it’s more relaxed on the english-speaking servers.
Camel!
Don’t give me nightmares, man!!!
I think it’s a good idea to support the sim YouTubers we have, the bigger they get the more influence they will have and it will invite a ton of new players to the game mode which we desperately need. If I understand things correctly YouTubers like Defyn and Lee are in some sort of dev discord server where they can share their thoughts on stuff directly to the devs. Would be great to get a sim player in there.
I can recommend checking out ‘Nimbal’ as he goes by now. He makes some really solid content.

I tried that once with German WT YouTubers. but the answer from them was ‘no RB is great and Sim is crap’ … mmppff!
but I think you’ll have more luck with English-speaking channels like that.
YouTube channels in English have more reach anyway.
.
I mean back when they changed it from the on-rails FM to the FM we have now.
In regards to Sim I don’t think they’d ever close it as it wouldn’t make much sense. At the end of the day it’s still a paying playerbase, more realistically it’ll get neglected and left to fester.
Interestingly a lot of RB players are also saying that RB is neglected and needs updating as they’ve been playing the same game with the same problems for years now essentially. So it isn’t just us.
The audience for RB is just way bigger than for Sim.
More clicks, more likes, more money. Simple thing.
Nimbal for example makes really good sim content, but compare his numbers to any random RB channel and you see the difference.
Unfortunately we are a small and unimportant minority, because complexity is a red flag for most players.
And those who embrace it play DCS or IL2.
WT Sim is a niche in between
His channel has been growing pretty well, from about 1k subs to almost 3k now in like 4 months I think. Hope it continues
