It would be awesome if developers fix volumetric shells, armor and maybe overpressure. These mechanics creates a lot of issues mostly for ground battles. I love when 70 SP vehicle destroys tanks better than actual tanks (Falcon, AMX 30 DCA, any Oerlikon KDA carrier)
NO
Really funny thing is I’d wager you lot and the Italians getting Gripen are partly to blame for the abysmal state of it. Too many minor nations with the same decent kit, obviously they had to kill it.
In the case of France, the new sub tree is pretty good example of the fact that they use them to copy paste instead of adding in native options. France has an obscene number missing native options, and instead of implementing any of them they give us leopards. Plenty of light tanks they could add, we get copy pastes and such. A few jets they could have added, got a tech tree that really shouldn’t be with the French, because copy paste.
They just need to stop with sub trees and focus on native options. They could even outsource the research to the community for upcoming native additions, and I would wager would have significantly more accurate outcomes alongside significantly fewer people getting pissed that they modeled shit wrong.
I am pretty upset at the tree they added to France. Could have given us any number of light options, and instead we get leopards. Could have unfucked the myriad issues with Leclerc, and instead we got leopards. Sub trees are just an excuse not to give native options and not to fix what needs fixing. French tree could have been receiving updates of native options (outside of air) for a few years, but instead we get this crap.
That aside;
There is some evidence that Leclerc could reload notably faster in a combat setting. I don’t have the claimed figures to hand though. Strv 103s could get a reload of 2.7s, from memory. I am of the mind they could improve it to this rate on account of the abysmal hull aim, and the fact that it was one of the more notable things of Strv 103. Especially for the strv 103 that’s at 8.7. Doesn’t help 103s are missing redundant systems. However, I am also biased and the 103 is my favourite tank.
Not because of the C&P.
The BeNeLux TT is around 70% totally unique.
The only things we have seen for BeNeLux are within the 30% of C&P.
BeNeLux is the only possible standalone TT with a BIG navy - unlike the 2 lines for other proposed TT’s.
Also, BeNeLux has stealth fighters, a very big submarine navy, a big arsenal of attackdrones, unmanned vehicles and a reasonable big sized helicopter TT.
BeNeLux SHOULD have been an independend TT. NO other proposed standalone TT has the equivalant amount of vehicles as BeNeLux. You only reach that size when combining the entire European East-Block together, and even then, you have a very small navy - with no subs - no attack drones, no unmanned vehicles and no stealth fighters.
So not really future proof.
The Gripen is finally balanced, what’s wrong with it?
Probably more that Im forgetting. You also have the SAAF one with R-Darters that are notably weaker than the AMRAAM.
Oh sorry didn’t realize you wanted a 15.0 plane instead
If its a 15.0 plane, then F-15C MSIP II and F-15E should already be at 16.0
With its old FM and countermeasures it was almost immune to most missiles and was undogfighteable by anything else. It belongs at a higher BR than those.
With the reduction in burn time on the flares and the fact you actually need to run chaff now, that wouldnt happen. You dont exactly see F-15s running 240 regular flares and dropping them at regular intervals to make themselves immune to IR missiles do you
Fake nerfs for the sake of “balance” should never be done. Totally fake, ahisotircal nerfs ruin the game. BOL especially because they applied that change to EVERYTHING that has BOL. Tornado, Viggen, SHar, etc all got screwed by the fact they basically dont have flares or chaff that work. Tornado F3 Late and SHar FA2 and VIggen Di probably all should be more like 12.7 due to the lack of CMs.
Benelux will only give France copy paste options. Because that is what Gaijin added it for. Specifically so they didn’t have to do work on unique native options for France.
Funny how F15s are allowed to keep a FM that is overperforming compared to a few documents I’ve read, but the moment Sweden players suggest Gripen be brought up to parity with the most credible sources (in any way) we’re shouted down because “It’d be too good”. *
So much for “Make better things” then.
* Gripen is even under performing compared to the least charitable papers.
Its just inconcievable to US mains that nations besides the US made good aircraft.
You see, F-15C and F-16C are pretty accurate to their respective EM and turn rate diagrams. Regarding F-15A and F-16A, they are 100% overperforming and sometimes by quite a bit. The F-16A flight model is just completely nuts; the F-16s in general should not be able to pull over 26 degrees of AOA because it is limited by the FCS. This applies also to the F-16C, but the F-16A with sim controls can easily maneuver safely up to near 40 degrees of AOA with sim controls which it absolutely cannot do in real life. The entire reason why the F-16 has an AOA limiter is because the aerodynamic configuration would mean that past the limit, the F-16 wouldn’t even be able to sustain controlled flight and enter a stall.
So you get funny things such as the F-16s winning a low-speed one-circle fight with the Su-27 Flanker ingame. If the flight models are accurate, the F-15 and the Su-27 would clap the F-16 in that area, but the opposite is true currently.
…Which isn’t modeled because it is simply not compatible with a game where pulling 12Gs is the norm.
Folks. We need more votes, share this poll!
How has Japan gone top
Because Japan suffers the most.
Which i 100% agree with.
Israel faces practically every issue that Japan does but worse
That’s one for the superman that sits in the cockpit, or is it just a drunken Russian pilot.
F16 though… Why should other planes be limited with FM whilst F-16 isn’t, it isn’t to do with pulling 12Gs, its more about the FM, otherwise why is it even a thing in WT?
Japan has a larger playerbase i guess…
But, Israël is second. So it suffers just as much.
With only a 1% difference.
