I agree the radars should be on…thought that is kinda self evident? As for how many, the amount is fine. The point is to make people SEAD and NOT just DTM like ARB because they are so spread out you can fly right down main street and don’t have to worry!
You can somewhat kill rolands or other US side SPAA but the OSA will shoot anything you throw at it and also kill you in the process if you are within 10km.
If playing US I don’t bother farming round unless im using nukes
it’s always pretty deranged, but yeah, I’m no fan of the “fighter mafia” but the game mode used to give you options of PvPing or PvEing, granted the interception abilities of the SPAA made PvP easier, but they haven’t fixed that, just made PvP less profitable to force PvE
Yeah, I just did a sneak run on the Buks in my A-6, got right up to em dropped 3 2000lb’ers and got vaporized by an OSA along with my bombs…
R-27EP now!!! but jokes aside the PvE needed to be improved to make it more viable, not the PvP nerfed, MyphicPi’s argument is the exact mirror of the “fighter mafia” argument, both demand the game force players to play their way
Yeah, it’s incredibly frustrating. I gave up on doing conventional groundpounding because the SPAA is just too powerful. Not to mention the Buks and S-300s completely locking down the altitude so the literal only avenue of attack you have is scraping your ass on the ground the entire way only to die anyway because multipathing is a myth.
I avoid them like the plague flying like 3m above the sea, besides that i rely on prayers that they suddenly don’t activate wallhacks
Problem is that i can bypass the OSA doing that but the BUK doesn’t care about not being able to see me
I’m starting to understand the craziness with the SAMS for this mode, to keep it being easy mode getting Nukes. But the radar detection rings on the long range systems needs to looked at. Plus the sides need a little discouragement for easy flanking like one or two frigates on the coast and a mountain outpost for detection.
Also with the suicide bombing with the MiG-23s, I think they should up their Nuke by a 100sp.
Balanced in Realism, no. As a military enthusiast it annoys me they have SPAAs with every unit when in reality they were rare. But if you think about it, if they weren’t that annoying for NT, then it be easy mode bombing with nukes.
So they got a lot to work on if they’re doing this event in the future like addressing the SAM radar issue, easy mode flanking, and the suicide bombers on the Russian side.
