Nuclear Thunder!

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

I have never been shot down by an S300 or a Patriot in the strategic bomber. All you have to do is turn on periodic release of countermeasures and they become useless against you

Its what ive done so far too, though the reward for killing a player is still much higher than the reward for killing a SAM with an ARM.

They need to double or triple the rewrad for killing a SAM, especailly when using an ARM to make it a properly valid way of doing the event. But its too late now to really worry about. If/when this event comes back in the future, we’ll be able to bring everything and unleash aircraft like the Tornado GR1 with 9x ALARM to do some proper SEAD

Typical event reward day. It’s BR has become totally saturated

I’m talking about the 600 SP needed to use a 30kt nuke

Yeah I really want to see what Gaijin will do in the next iterations of this game mode, I can’t wait to finally be able to use other tech trees

Im just wondering if any of this gamemode will end up in either ARB or ASB alongside the introduction of ARM into the main game.

A PvE overhaul has been needed for years

Waiting for US = 58 minutes.

Kept trying Russia Mig 23 only to get put against F-15’s and F-18s.
