Nuclear Thunder!

This is a YOU issue. Nothing stops you bring out a Yak-141 or MiG-29.

Do something other than A2A kills? Can very easily do the entire star in 2-3 matches

As soon as I discovered the 500 SP nuke I just kept flanking and nuking airfields and got the star in my first 2 matches

Again this is barely possible. It took me 4 tries before one of my air to air missiles could make it through my own team’s missile spam first. I’ve tried various methods of air to ground and I think I hit one target with a KH missile for minor damage. I don’t have 8 hours to keep respawning and dying, hoping to get some kind of breakthrough.

Nice change. Any news about AI AA nerf? Currently they seem to be bit excessively strong.

How are we supposed to get into a lobby when you broke up the brs.

Don’t charge the enemy head on, you have to play smart and flank. One of the easier ways to farm A2A kills is to just defend airfields.

Yep. 500sp, 30kt, side base spawn NOE burn in the weeds, use map to set target point perfect center of the airfield, then pull and CCRP toss your bomb from a grid square away.

And if you do it right you can cycle and get back into the weeds and save your aircraft, instead of the retard kamekazis I have been seeing in most matches

that’s complete bs

Do I need to relog for this and update client?

Well you can always switch to the lower BR bracket, but that would mean not being able to use your sealclubber.

Another thing is clearing the way to an airfield before trying to nuke it. I usually do a suicide run in my A-7K and knock out one of the S-300 batteries before I go airfield hunting

The lower bracket is just as bad. They just split the player base in half for a mode that was already hard to get into a match.

Sorry to bother you but any news on the saclos aimbots?

they’ll do nothing about it

Except I don’t have either of those planes. My choices for the Russian side are an unspaded Mig-25, SU-25T, SU-24 and the Mig-23. For US Air I tried the F-14A but there’s too many missiles being launched and my targeted planes are dead before my missiles reach them.

Not when a ground target is only 40 points. You need to kill 40 ground targets and the only way to do that is dumb bombs because missiles/smart bombs get shot down. Then you die 20 times to AAA to get through once.

Easy way to get a good chunk of SP as well.
