The AI strikes back lmao

I mean it’s true but the main issue imo with a lot of recent packs that gaijin just makes that they sell less just by doing some promotion and balancing shenanigans with vehicles added. IMO 120s on even 13.7 F-14 would be an instant buy for many people. I mean it’s up to gaijin but like this thread may be a good feedback and an example for the future additions.

Bug reports regarding both AIM-9M and AIM-7P implementation have been closed as “not a bug”, with the stated reasoning of… Drumroll please…

“Currently, this is not a bug. Developers are decided to implement the F-14D’s armament identically the F-14B.”

What?! Why not just make a premium F-14B (Upgrade) instead of absolutely murdering the F-14D to fit it into the same BR as the F-14B?! Or hell, just pull an F-4EJ ADTW and make the prem F-14 a premium version of B with a special paintjob???

Gaijin, I’m begging you, please don’t be this stupid. Give us a TT version of the F-14D, and give both it and the premium version the weapons they could actually use in service! You CANNOT claim to be a historically authentic game in any capacity when you introduce the best variants of iconic jets in a nerfed state (using missiles they were physically unable to fire in service) at $80 with no real TT equivalent!

This is an outrage… Give it higher BR and AIM-9M’s 7P and 54C+ at the very least.

They’re really trying to pull an M1 KVT situation on us again… But with no real defensible reasoning this time…

Nothing new.

It doesn’t need to go up because it would be the perfect counter to the 33s and 27s

Community: “Hey, we are kinda irritated that you just made the F-14D a copy of the F-14B, and refused to give it 9Ms and better air-to-air missiles.”
Admins and Devs for no reason: “We are going to mass delete your complaints, say you have skill issue for not wanting unhistorical 9Ls and outdated Sparrows, and then proclaim this is a win for the TRUE COMMUNITY, and not you fakers who discredit Gaijin!”

They only respond M-F. Very rare on a weekend they trying to save there sanity.

OK I saw they posted 7 hours ago in R&R. Yeah they just are avoiding the topic, or more than likely just focusing on certain topics.

Honestly if the B was the premium and the D was TT. This wouldn’t be on fire as much.

I think there’d still be a fire about it. Giving a plane those missiles at a BR that constantly sees fox3s and IRCCM missiles is terrible. Legit ZERO REASON why this plane can’t have the 7Ps or 9Ms. Hell we have an F15 at 12.7 with 9Ms.

F2A with 4 AAM3s and SU33 with R73s and 27ERs (IOG AND DL which the 7M doesn’t have). Tornado with 9Ms and AIM120s, premium SU30s with 4 IRCCM missiles and 6 ARH. There’s no excuse for Gaijin.

Oh I’m not saying there wouldn’t be a fire. Just not as big. Not giving the jet missiles available at 12.7 is mind boggling.

Agreed. 🤝

And I’m a huge F14 fan. It’s just so depressing they’re neutered in this game.

Hello fellow snail lovers.

I’ve already posted this in the General Discussion forum, but I feel this belongs in this thread too. I’d like to bring attention to something that I’m sure a lot of people feel quite strongly about. The recent revealing of the F14D coming to the game. I will keep professional despite my very strong feelings toward the addition of it as a premium. I would like to propose a common middle ground.

Proposal:

F14D(R) - Premium:
Same loadout it has

F14D ROVER III - Tech Tree Vehicle:
Same flight model and other characteristics as the F14D(R)
Added ROVER III upgrade (Remotely Operated Video Enhanced Receiver)
OPTIONAL UPGRADE(S): Added AIM-120A/B capability

Premium vehicles should SUPPORT progression, they should not REPLACE it. As a community, we want these iconic and highly requested vehicles to remain a part of progression, to make the time we spend playing this game worth it. We want these “End of an Era” vehicles to be a part of the grind, and to continue to be obtainable through gameplay.

Thank you for your time and consideration, feel free to give me your feedback.
