Well there’s a flavor for everyone, I just prefer the straightforward nature of low tier air combat. The only threat I have to worry about is the one in my gunsight, not some rocket powered arrow coming at me from the other side of the map.

But no, I just meant to stay on topic of the forum in general, not necessarily you or me specifically. Figured I’d link back to something I saw in Part 1 lol

Hang on Pikachu.

What did I say was untrue?

All of it lmao
All top tier is is just missile button flare button. Way more complex needing to know the flight characteristics of prop planes.

After the missile stage, you are back to fighting like low tier, exept you have to be aware of fuel and space plebs

In 10.3 or 10.7, yeah. I’ve never had a top tier match last long enough for that. By the time the missile stage is over one team has completely wiped the other. It’s so boring.

You still need to know the flight characteristics of your aircraft and that of the opponents just as much as low tiers lol.
Actually more, you need to have a higher degree of situational awareness in an environment rich with threats coming from close range and long range of different types. Radar and IR. In which there is a skill one must have in defeating. You cannot defeat certain missiles with just popping flares or chaff alone lol.

Top tier is tremendously more taxing and complex than low tier.

I am sorry it’s just a fact.

Then you get sad matches, cause i see plenty of times where guns can be used and where they do get used

yawn sorry, what was that? I couldn’t hear you over this “invigorating” missile “gameplay”.

It does not matter if it’s boring to you, or if the matches are too fast. It is still undeniably more complex than low tiers and piston driven fighters.

Luck you I guess. I keep researching top tier jets only to leave disappointed because missile gameplay sucks so hard and matches never make it past that part for me.

It’s gonna get even nuttier with the R-73s if I’ve been understanding everything these past couple days.

I’m glad the people who want it are getting it, I’m sure people have wanted it for years. But that just sounds so unfun.

You’re like the Japanese Admirals that were too stubborn to believe the age of the battleship would ever die and be replaced with the carrier strike group and would Banzai charge their ships into certain death with no strategic or tactical value in WWII lol.

I wouldn’t say that per say, he’s like me; Just prefers the straightforward nature of low tier lol

Is there anything this update you’re definitely hyped for?

Have you considered that maybe I’m here for a good time and not to suffer with something I don’t like just because Gaijin keeps adding new top tier jets?

Missiles?
Getting an IR missile to hit, guns to hit, radar missile to hit all require substantial skill.

@Ziggy1989 is very correct that top BR requires far more skill than everything else.

Awareness, energy capabilities of your aircraft & others, deep throttle control, weapons decisions before you engage the target…
