Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

So let me get this straight. PR blurb about 35g or whatever Mistral = unfairly nerfed, but 40g patent on R-27ER = russian bias can’t put in the game.

The double standard at its finest.

In fact, the opponent of PL-12 is AIM-120C. If the opponent in the game is AIM-120A, or even worse than AIM120A, it would be really funny.

Mistral is underperforming so a buff is justified but R-27ER is OP so it doesn’t need any buff.

Realism = irrelevant

National favouritism is paramount.

Good to know.

iglas cant perform better, so its not possible stingers or mistrals perform any better

Balance matters…

my thought exactly

they then complain about MiG-23MLD vs F4

Spoiler

this statement is gonna summon people to throw rocks, tomatos at your post and call you heretic

That is the problem. The PL-12 should be the second best missile on this list just second to MICA RF. Bug reports just like other Chinese vehicles were ignored but always passed if they are for nerfs while they just pretended to be caring about China by adding rather insignificant changes. We arent doing a second may review bombing for no reason and claiming that Gaijin intentionally mistreats China like Britain, France or Italy.
And there are people who just simply ignoring that fact because their styerotypes about the Chinese military. Hell, for war thunder playerbase, a lot of players who disliked a competent China TT ARE ACTUALLY CHINESE.

It’s probably a case of different people asking for different things.

Though it might also be the nature of the missile. R-27ER is pretty much the top radar guided missile in game right now, with other lagging behind quite a bit. Meanwhile the MANPADS are far from top tier and can simply be moved up in BR if they start to overperform, as long as they don’t magically manage to become better than a Pantsir.
In this case it would be not a “don’t fix”, but rather a “fix those others first, then wait until BRs allow for a fix”

It will be better to post this bug report once the PL-12 comes in the live server.

So that would explain that, ok thank You

MiG-23MLD is marginally the best plane for a few months? Intolerable.

F-14 completely stomps it with no counterplay for like 9 months or whatever? All is well.

I agree with the Report mod there

you cant sit here reporting stuff thats still in an Alpha Development stage

Flame has a half dozen bug reports for AMRAAM already up 🤣

(But from the dev server)

Yeah, you have to wait for them to screw it up completely and then risk it never being fixed despite mountains of evidence.

Yeah of course.

If Mistral was 35-50g, it can’t stay at 9.3 which it is now. Not really sure how useful an undodgable killer AA missile is when it can’t really lock anything further than like 4km. Would be useless at higher BR.

It’s not about that.

Gaijin bug reports refuse to accept the validity of any datamining, categorically.

retry when dev server, it’s the only time gaijin works fast

yes exactly

then when the MiG-29 and F-16 came and the complained so much that the US tree got 2 F-16s while most others got only one

oh I remember those times, my trees were still stuck with Biggen and MiG-23MLA for a Major then
