BF1 slapped, but yeah I do agree with the others. I hated BFV and 2042 was just meh.
Regardless. I’m personally just waiting for the next BF (which should be coming sometime within the next 2 years I hope) for modern FPS and just use HLL or rising storm for my ww2/vietnam era fps itch.
WT infantry will likely end up similar to naval. A lot of potential and hype initially, but soon everyone will find out that it’s a buggy and balancing mess and it will die out quick and quiet. Don’t think many people from that “untapped fps market” would even reach the modern infantry in the trees lol.
Besides that a grind tree system for infantry is just a disaster waiting to happen.
To be fair, Infantry, besides vehicles involvement, wouldn’t have same disparity (at worst) as BBs vs Cruisers with Coastal being completely sidelined and useless
This is precisely why they shouldn’t be retiring the warthogs, the f35 is advanced but kinda a princess… doesn’t like dust, doesn’t like bad weather, doesn’t like bad runways
And such an advanced aircraft is much less reliable and maintenance friendly in operations, it needs a cheaper simpler complement
just checked, the f35 actually isn’t considered safe to fly during thunderstorm. As for the radar-absorbing paint I’m not sure for the f35 specifically but these paints usually don’t like agressive environments
And, well, there’s no debate on it not being an “off road” jet, at least the f35a isn’t intended at all for field landings
Most European nations in War Thunder went straight from Tornados to Eurofighters.
During the same timeframe, U.S made countless F-14, F-15, F-16 and F-18 variants.
What are we suppossed to do?
The European nations already got not only the Eurofighters and Rafales, but also numerous “subtree/subnation” vehicles that were implemented with the sole purpose of providing them with additional options they would otherwise not have. F-16s, MiG-29s, JAS-39s…
So I really can’t see where the problem is. If U.S has 10 potential planes available for addition for every European plane there is (even including subtrees/subnations), it’s only natural that U.S will end up getting a larger quantity of planes per update.
True, but there’s a lot we could do to balance things a bit… USA has 3 f16s, 3 f15s, 2 f14s and 3 f18s, why won’t they add more typhoons, more rafales and more gripens?
What “more Typhoons”, “more Rafales” and “more Gripens” exactly…?
Typhoon users will get a later tranche with 2 more hardpoints and better missiles when 5th gen fighters come, and same goes for Rafale.
As I said… U.S just has 10 available options per European counterpart. European nations already got subtrees in order to have more options available. Not having as many options as U.S isn’t a balance or Gaijin issue, it’s a real life one.
Well for example the Rafale could have (and imo should have) come in an earlier standard than the F3 first. Imo it makes no sense that France jumped from Mirages to Rafale F3 without first getting the older standards. That’s like putting a F-15E before the F-15A and F-15C
In which way would it have benefitted France to get a worse Rafale only so they can get a marginally better one later…? 410,000 / 1,100,000 extra RP / SL for… what?
More isn’t always better… specially in a game mode where you only get one spawn anyway.
Near-identical variants in Ground is nice for the lineups, but… for Air? It’s just extra grind for nothing.
