As the title suggests, the Chinese Z19E helicopter is ruining top tier SB. This is by far the most blatant pay to win aircraft in the game, it is able to be first spawned with laser guided ATGMs with 6km of range, it can hover uncontested for the entirety of the game, our 6 man team got wiped out within seconds and nobody was motivated to keep playing so this is a serious issue.
How is that fair? Stingers can’t lock and nobody seems to have Roland SPAAs, just get rid of it from the rotation or increase its spawn cost.
The problem is SIM not the heli or P2W. Heli’s shouldn’t have an auto trim or auto hover feature in SIM. These auto functions completely marginalize the purpose of SIM.
Either way it is really annoying to see your entire team die within seconds and without any chance to fight back, I’m somewhat new to Sim but hopefully by the time we get another 10_2 line up I’ll have a fully spaded SPAA that can take out the Z19E
Gaijin doesnt care about Sim, it’s been broken for years. I have SOOOOOOOOOOO many tickets in for unbalanced matches because BR changes that they dont even bother to correct.
the Z19E already was removed from the shop for whatever reason what you want more, in general this seems more like a skill issue on your part, spawn an aircraft or an spaa (grind for it more) generaly huge skill issue on your team if nobody spawns spaas
As a main helicopterist, i can agree that Z19E is very very strong.
It has excellent maneuverability to touch the laws of physics, eight literally infallible air-to-air missiles, and “Hellfire-like” ATGM that perform much better than NATO ones even on enemy helicopters.
The only way to counter them is to catch them off guard with an aircraft.
Z19 continues to make high tier sim ground unplayable 1.5 years later.
Rolands are not fast enough to take them out. Every single game they spawn in and farm the blue team which is (coincidence i’m sure) not allowed to spawn any better AA, like for example an Otomatic.
And obviously the very balanced TY90 is even more lethal in sim.
It’s tiresome how rigged this ‘game’ is.
I was seriously thinking about make a detailed topic about this helicopter and how it dominates the 10_2 sim bracket.
I’ve used it and I can confirm that’s the shame of the helicopters, it doesn’t even fun anymore for how strong and easy to use is.
But a, very vast, majority of modern helicopters have gyroscopes can inertial nav systems that allow them to completely hover by themselves, great example of this, and one of the biggest pioneers for fly-by-wire and automated systems in a helicopter, being the Ka-50.
