I highly doubt all those posters in the bias threads are there for shit and giggles. It’s funny how the thread about the busted Rafale has less than 800 posts in more than two months.
I guess it’s only a problem when one specific nation is unbalanced.
Despite how much I dislike the state of the Rafale, everythijg it has is within a realm of reality, and besides the HMS & Pylons, it’s fairly accurate.
It was added at a time where the Rafale C F2/3 would’ve sufficed, and as a result it’s extreme powercreep
Carrying more of the best ARHs in the game than you should is a big buff.
Not to mention HMD enables Rafale and MICA to be so strong at closer ranges in the first place.
Removing those things is so simple and very effective to put an end to Rafale, it’s not like it’s historically accurate anyways.
The problem, is that no one else has been given anything even close yet.
Whilst it might be accurate representation of the Indian Rafale CF3, it is massively under BRed and no one else has gotten their equivalent airframes yet.
The current implementation is far more represenative of the Rafale F4 in french service, and for a counter we need something like a Typhoon with AESA and IRIS-T/ASRAAMs or Gripen E with IRIS-Ts and thats ignoring the fact that aircraft like the Typhoon are underperforming significantly at the moment, but they refuse to fix any bug reports for it and are only fixing Rafale bug reports.
So do other hot topics come out in other tangentially related threads. This is a thread specifically made for Rafale and is receiving around 10-15 posts per day. In some other threads that post count was reached in like 5 minutes.
By finding information about Indian Rafale, not French one ?
i feel like for now gaijin need to focus on some naval capable plane as mig29k and rafale
M or capable fighter in some tree where they need it the most, such as china, sweeden
because theres no real discussion here. Except for the occasional “french pilots are built different” cope no one disagress with the notion that the Rafale is broken. Thats wildly different in the MI28 threads for example
No idea, i havent read the 9000+ bug reports these guys filed, i just know that it got change because of them
28NM has a few direct competitors, while Rafale does not really.
I’d at least expect some (and by some I mean dozens) pings to the CMs asking them to explain why Rafale is still being this busted while obvious and easy solutions are out there.
What we have here is more suited to have an Indian flag behind it, thus being a part of the GB tree.
Minor nation bias. You often notice it in WT. The Rafale we’ve got ingame is absurdly stronK and it saddened me as I read its not even a real existing service Rafale. But a frankensteine’ed one, a wild mix of test configurations and whats really existing in their ranks.
Other nation would never get this. In case of Germany its f.e. always very strict the service variant. It applies for planes and ground vehicles as well. Germany also tested alot on the ground and in the air. But almost nothing of this will be ever added.
