So now they upgraded ground pounding rewards, all awesome, but now I got a question.
How is rewards for random air kill valuable more than hunting the real threats like this:
So one was about to destroy one of the airfields and second one end the match, yet I got less for my patrolling efforts than just going to brain-dead head-ons in the middle of the map.
The whole system needs a rethink and rebalance (AAA’s especially) to be anyhow fun for actual role-playing.
People just go in the middle of the map at the start, get frags and spawn nukes, probably besides few degenerates who like to suffer trying to do actual ground clearance with nuke-less planes.
Yesterday I said OK i will try something different, took A7 with HARM’s and went for OSA hunting, barely raised up to 1000m to search for targets and constant S300 ping spam, closed to the front lime and as soon as I had my first target acquired, already spam of missiles are incoming and guess what 2 Mig29’s already approaching.
After such attempt I said fck it, going back to air fights, at least I have some way to survive and get some points flying 100m above the ground…
nuclear thunder used to be so fun at first. But now its a pain in the butt. America is impossible to play if you dont have f4s or f4j. SPAA is too OP cant even toss bomb a nuke without getting killed. FIRST 75% of the TIME THERE IS NO MISSILE INDICATOR. Russia starting to be a pain due to f4s or f4j.
Why does the russian Chaff work so much better that USA when USA has always been more advanced? Why does the Mig-29 feel so much better than the F 15? This is total BS
Was it fun, maybe, because it was new thing, but seriously this map have a lot more to offer than just going into furballs for head-ons. That was maybe fun for 1h, then you realize it’s same old stuff but with a lot of AAA’s with better success rate than actual enemy planes LOL
You can actually… AGM will get intercepted, but Zuni can’t. Well, you’re right. Zuni is shorter range (8 km). Shoot like 2 Rocket on the sky to bait the OSA then you can see those smokes and just aim your rocket over there… That how I got my B52H without air kills.
Anti radiation missile feel bad against Osa and Flak is because the way those AA ai work, they can just fire at the target without open their radar even though the target is out of their IRST range, and after fire they will shut down their radar which stopping the radiation
I could break the lock playing russia but not playing the US and the S300 won’t stop tracking no matter what I do. CONSTANTLY yelling RWR is annoying asf. This is SO DAMN STUPID> Why are we even still here.
here is a deal replace Su-24M in the low bracket with the Su-17 or 22 replace 23MLD with 21BIS while not allowing us to bring our own planes after that FIX THAT AA
