Nuclear Thunder!

Last match I had with the Soviets today

Yeah. Partially. Su-24 route to nuke key bases. You bypass all NPCs and F-4J/S campers. Unfortnately preset Phantom won’t have enough fuel in tac nuke configuration.

enlighten us then, because in my experience even BMP 2 are able to aimbot the shit out of me at 3km of distance, while also shooting down all my munitions. This goes for dumb bombs, guided bombs and missiles

with the soviets… now it’s much more clear…

Just do this

It is possible, most of the past 3 tokens ive done via SEAD.

But the A-7E does suck. Its a terrible aircraft, we should have gotten a Tornado IDS with 4x AGM-88 instead

Take your Soviet bias whining home, the highest amount of ground kills I got was with the A-7E and I prefer it over the Su-25T, lmao

i am not talking about bias but they are currently better armed in this mode

This. I did a pure A7 Sead game today. Its wasn’t fun nor somehow successfull in terms of points.

Or you could get 5-6 air kills, get the 30kt nuke and do just as much ground pounding with less risk

Yeah. the Score rewards for SEAD need to be doubled or maybe even tripled. the SP gains should be doubled.

Then they picked some of the most boring aircraft in the game to use for the bluefor side

I prefer engaging with the game mode instead of playing Air RB with nukes, you can have all the fun in the world slinging missiles at the local furball

Its too slow for the vast open spaces. Takes too long to reach the action zone. And tbh…then I suicide…clause flying back all the way to rearm would be just too much.

Didn’t BUK missiles appear on the RWR for the F-4E?
I feel like i’ve seen it multiple times yet now i’m just getting sniped by them without any heads up, already bad enough that they are shooting me at ground level past the hills

though hes not wrong, the effectiveness and rewards for doing SEAD “properly” vs just tossing a nuke is just insane.

What you can achieve in 3 or so A-7E sorties you can do in 1 F-4E sortie with a nuke.

The gamemode design is really terrible if they want to encourage people to actually partake in the SEAD and beta test ARMs

Nothing like Gaijin ruining what seemed like an enjoyable gameplay

Noticed this too. Though the SAMs are all such buggy messes that its impossible to really tell what is going on half the time.

Though I do wonder if also the RWRs are just getting overwhelmed

It does have a track limit and its easily reached in this gamemode

Get what, I got 6 kills defending airfields, dropped 4 SU24’s and barely got for small nuke while they could easily kill airfields 4 times… that’s “balance”.
You should get rewards based on enemy threat/importance not some scked from a$$ multipliers.

They literally changed nothing in the gameplay… top players will farm kills get nukes and then farm points with nukes. So instead of constant DM now we have initial DM and non ARB pleb praying lord snail is generous enough to drop any points for the personal event progress.

Yeah but to get the nuke I’ll have to do SEAD first, that’s how it is for me

Are the servers down rn?

Also got the b52
