Poor poor poor little MiG-29 (9-13)

I think it should be:

MiG-29 (9-13): 4xR-73 & 2xR-27R/T at BR 12.7
F-16A ADF: 4xAIM-9M & 2xAIM-7F at BR 12.7

or both at 13.0

and also R-27ER of MiG-29G (German) should be changed to R-27R

then it would be literally identical to the 12.7 mig29

Both of these planes are dead at 13.0 even if you gave the mig r73. You have monsters like su27 and su33 st 13.0 in what world are you flying the mig 29 at 13.0 unless you are in love with it irl over these 2 missile busses? Maybe if we ever get a 1v1 dogfight mode, but in current ARB 2 usable missliles for BVR when you have planes with 6 or 8 at the same br is just beyond suboptimal.

German players talk it up because they have literal garbage top tier air for years until they got the typhoon. Not to mention powercreep like su27 going down and su33 being added etc. At the same br. And all the german premiums are terrible besides the mig 21, same deal with russia and the mid 23 being the only thing for years while US just keeps piling them on. Cant wait for US to get yet another great top tier premium next patch while germany and ussr get nothing again. And ya premiums do matter because the game is insanely grindy and when you only 1 have option for literally years its just not fun. But muh russian bias.

Maybe, though at the moment the F-16s arent limited like that in terms of AAMs.

Then whats the difference between the Mig-29 and Mig-29G?

Also iirc, the Mig-29G did actually use R-27ERs

It is

no, they were never given to east germany

no, the german MiG-29G has already R-73 and R-27ER/ET at 13.0

You literally said to give the 12.7s R-73 in the same post, are you ok?

R-73s make it 13.0 pre-decompression and 13.3 post-decompression.
The only way it stays 12.7 is if it never gets R-73s.

or if gaijin increase the BR to 15.0 and start doing their job

You do realize Mig-29s go up if 15.0 exists right? Cause the only way 15.0 exists is if 9.3 gets decompressed as well.

yeah, but they could place every aircaft in a better position, not like this, a MiG-29 that cannot be changed 'cause the BR has to be increased if added R-73, or stay with R-60M in a very bad BR where it cannot perform well with the actual gameplay nowadays

BR decompression is a utopia, I’ve been hearing this for a while and nothing happens, we need team balance, there are useful idiots out there flying fighters that they don’t even know what they’re doing.

blame gaijin

artificially? hell no.

There will never be any semblance of team balance without sbmm, and even then it will only be marginally better.

MM makes zero distinctions between a 4.0kd veteran and some guy that just bought the game and an f18.

Blame yourself for consistently asking for lower BRs for aircraft! When given the option between a higher BR for an aircraft, leading to decompression, or a lower one, leading to compression, you almost always choose the latter!

I wouldn’t blame myself because I don’t do this. You won’t be able to cite times I did either because you’re just… lying for clout?

Example 1: this thread. Given the option between 12.7 and 13.0, and explicitly saying the MiG-29 would

you chose 12.7.
Example 2: given the option of moving 12.0s up or F-4J(UK) down, you immediately jumped to the defense of the 11.7 option
Example 3: asking for the Kfir Canard to be 10.7.

You are very much part of the problem that is the War Thunder community consistently favouring compression BR changes over decompression ones. Take a moment to think about that. I’m sure you didn’t even realize.

No? I prefer decompression over all options otherwise, I just also have “realistic takes” where I have opinions that relate to how GAIJIN is likely to do things… If you actually knew anything about me you’d know I am one of the most staunch advocates for decompression on this game…

No, I didn’t. I’d also prefer decompression there and have said so in the past.

never did this, if anything I might have passively agreed with someone saying it again, under the constraints of what gaijin realistically is doing.

You’re a fool and nobody should be listening to you after this little rant…

Neither of these are me little bro 💀
