Because it Fking sucks at both tiers. F4S and F14/15/18 are all better in this event than the best jet you can take… the worthless MiG-29 lead sled. The MiG-23 Fing sucks as a nuke carrier because it wing rips at high speeds…which you kind of need to drop a nuke in a mode wiith 3 million sams and a dozen players shooting at you. Su-24 is slow AF and about as manuverable as a MiG-29. It’s just miserable to play. And i’ve gotten both USSR stars with just play time.
YES drop to BR 1
If russia have the equivalent of a 12.7 premium jet the USA had I would easily go buy it for the grind but they don’t so I am playing low tier russia and low tier USA cause I just want the bombers and the jets in the lineups are already good, russia has a worse fighter for sure though.
at least the russian teams can farm the american airfields because our aa wont shoot them
BR 1 man do you need me to hold your hand? DROP TO BR 1 as in the PLANE has a BR of 1, not 2 not 3 not 4 not 5 not 6 not 7 not 8 not 9
i cant help if you cant look at an image
BROTHER LOOK AT YOUR IMAGE LINEUP what is a F-80A-5 doing there?
sitting there because ITS UNUSEABLE IN THE EVENT YA TARD
I do enjoy this mode. Its very creative and def stepping out of that zone of what you guys are normally capable of. Honestly this would be an amazing idea for a more combined approach too where in Heli EC mode you have convoys and battles, what if there was an introduction to logistic vehicles too and the ability to bring in multi role logistic vehicles such as the Chinook or C130. This mode def has that breakthrough and resupply the front line feel to it. Perhaps game modes that are meant to last longer and allow more players, given that it would take a lot of improvements to optimizations for a server to handle so many players as is given how much the server would already need to calculate and send in packets to clients. Still. The idea you guys have, depending on how you deploy that vision, could bring fruit to your labor. A more casual DCS style mode for those who arent hardcore into simulation.
Bros playing stupid on purpose OBSERVE

you need to get that 12.7 out of your line up dude
go cope somewhere else there with the incompetence
I read it brother 🙂
If you would like to try the event any further, I would highly suggest reading through my post about how to use “CCRP” (Constantly Calculated Release Point) and a quick and dirty suggestion/guide to use SARH missiles (and how to “slave” IR missiles to a radar lock): Nuclear Thunder! - #3528 by SilentTracker
Ping me here, or send me a DM if you have any issues with the CCRP. I highly recommend going into a test match to set up the keybinds and test the mechanics a little bit before you try the event again. The F-4S premium is a good one to use for testing, it has all the features mentioned in my post above.
Good luck!
In my experience they are very hungry for flares even in frontal attacks.
Not everyone has money to throw around.
This entire point is negated by the fact the gamemode is basically EC, meaning you can bring one meta jet or anything you like and use it for the entirety of the round as long as you have the SL to spawn it. The progression and research argument is fairly more understandable, though.
I have serious doubts about this, to the point it’s borderline a simplification.
Keep in mind the B-52 given is the H variant, meaning its the latest, and therefore, if any variant comes to the game again, it’ll be a downgraded version in some way, hence a (minor yet still valid) FOMO cause. Add the ‘icon’ and the accesibility value and you get a plane that simply is more attractive to grind for the majority of the playerbase, whereas the Tu-95 lacks the same levels of ‘icon’ value, and its selling point will be that it’ll carry the biggest bomb in the game (other than nukes).
Again, you can rightfully argue that the current player distribution is not healthy, but we’ve consistently seen throughout the years and other april fools that balancing on events has never truly been a decisive factor on player distribution to have a 95%/5% of players. Only the reward value of the event can be an argument enough to justify such an astonishing difference, not even balance.
I agree, I’m not saying you have to but Free to Play is the worst way to grind this game if you’re looking at it long term. It will make it a lot easier if you try to set a budget and wait for a sale.
The idea of dropping a 9k bomb on a 7.3 team downtier is the only thing that keeps me going in this grind.
