Nuclear Thunder!

I don’t understand why some many people are complaining about the event. Maybe it’s just me but I think we are sending the wrong message here to the devs don’t you think? They finally did something different than the generic Air RB game mode and it’s actually good and yes BALANCED . Either this is just a hot take but I’ve been able to get the B52 and the TU95m in the stock planes for both nations. Maybe it comes with the fact that I play a lot of TT air RB and most people I see playing this gamemode are level 30’s. Most my games bring in 700k plus SL as well, just by getting around 20ish kills which isn’t as hard as you think with so many respawns.

Now I am in full support of nerfing the AA’s because I’ve been killed by those 5 times more than I’ve been killed by players. And I’m also in no defense of Gaijin and their greedy tactics and them not listening to the community. But I really think we should stop just saying it sucks and clearly give what should change instead of the 50th post saying

“After an hour of playing and getting 3 kills I only have 1000 points, I hate my life.”

This has to be the easiest event grind they’ve given us and it’s very possible to earn all score in one match.

Maybe this take is completely wrong and I’m all open to hear differing opinions :)

I think the best use would be the 2x fab 5000 bc the 9000 only has like a 4m wider effect radius

I totally agree with you here. I myself am level 58 and I main air RB. I have made so much SL, researched so many vehicles, and have also gotten both bombers, just to hear the general player base complain about simply the AA, and queue times. I think as a community we have to start focusing on what an improvement this is for Gajin as a whole, as they’ve always done well with listening but not so much taking the time for meaningful adaptation when it comes to our wants.

100 percent, I really don’t want to say it this bluntly but it is genuinely a skill issue and I hope they come to realize that it is a different playstyle and I do think Gaijin could do something great here (for once in their life XD)

The wait time for matches was complete trash of an argument, I agree on it.

The thing is AA, specially SPAA

Because you need to clear it, but it’s slow and tedious task until the nukes, where THEN you can clear SPAA in a reliable way.

Supersonic aircraft have small chances fighting it.
Imagine a subsonic strike aircraft.

You can take them out with subsonic strike aircrafts, it is possible if you use radiation missiles

I can totally agree with you here. I for sure have been 100% shafted my SPAA in the most mysterious ways during this event. I just understand that it’s new, they’re working on it, and every day I get on the game I see the changes they’ve made which always brings a smile to my face knowing that they’re really listening to us right now.

Fab-3000x4 has the largest bomb Load, but the B-52 is like triple it, and only at 8.7.

B-52 should be 9.0 probably

Balanced, like “everyone is struggling equally?”

They obviously made changes to nerf progression by at least 2 folds. What message do you want to send them?!

I’m resorting to being forced into playing top tier on USSR because every match has been a full fk’n uptier.

Mig-23s vs F-15A is just utter bs

I got all the score I needed for the 5th star in 2 matches, it’s still very generous

That’s what more people need to understand, they are doing things and just because people can’t fly for the life of them doesn’t mean we should default to blaming gaijin for their shortcomings. I don’t support a lot of the things they do (which is why I’m always a f2p player), but I wish people would give this mode a shot

The first day, it took me 1 hour to get the star and it was almost fun.

Today, it took me 2 hours and it was definitely NOT fun.

F-4S detected opinion dismised

This was the case for me in every challenge so far. 2 matches per nation and boom i’m done. I’ve never been more fulfilled by an event, ESPECIALLY knowing that I don’t need to stress about grinding 25k mission points a day while holding a full time job like the most of us lol

Well, fun is certainly subjective and it’s a shame you didn’t have any fun, I had a great time doing SEAD

genuinely nerf the osa to the absolute ground, its not this good in actual matches.

The changes are to encourage players to play the objective, which is SEAD. You can still very well make crap tons of money killing players. The aa obviously needs nerfing, but that’s the point of the gamemode. You can still very well get all score in one battle…
