I have encountered a video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5x5GsIEyrS8) about r-73’s getting a perfomance change, so i checked it today myself and indeed, it either doesn’t track or doesn’t pull at all, i mean it, r-60m’s are better at the moment
even the r-3r is
It caught the PL-12 bug
In my testing, rocket never pulled harder that ~16g at all during flight and for the first second or two ~10G , i mean now it’s not worth using at all, i’m not sure about pl-12 bug being present here as i’m not sure how to prove it because i didn’t even see any info about r-73 being changed
Oh, sorry, I was making just a little double meaning joke as “catching a bug” is also slang for catching a cold or getting sick, it’s bugged in game/ got sick like the PL-12.
But yeah I don’t see any mention of it in the dev server change log and it still seems fine on live.
I hope that it is them tweaking something they shouldn’t have.
But I have absolutely no faith in this organisation.
They seem to have tried fixing its wobble but instead made it into a 9B
well, that is probably the most realistic option (funny that right now i played two batlles one on dev one on live with the mig-29m with 8 r-73’s, in live it was 6/8 with one not having enough energy, in dev it was 2/8 with both of them being head-on’s)
There is an accepted bug report on it, so fingers crossed
