Nope, compared to large one, the little one will make the planes faster, such as F4 take 250 pounds bombs is faster than taking 1000 pounds (only destroy one base)
Thank you!!! I’ll study those videos with great interest! Hopefully together with other info I can write something that gets accepted…
And you don’t realize this was a bug, meaning that you gained too much?
So of course for the community it’s ok if suddenly because of a bug you earn more, but if this is corrected, it’s an outrage?
Silly Schindibee-analogy coming here: Imagine in a store you suddenly get your bread 20% cheaper, because someone put a wrong price tag on.
Management realizes the error, then corrects the prize to the (correct) value.
Do customers then also complain and rage about the unacceptable price increase they must now suffer?!?
(Note: Whether the price of the bread is ok or not in general, or if the shop is overly expensive or cheap is not the question here, and would be a different topic…)

Bug, huh. How many time snail need’s to fix it? 7 months for rockets and 3(?) years for small bombs?
Yep. That’s a silly analogy.
Right one sounds like:
You get some work, with fixed paycheck.
Sign the contract.
You do that work, for month/2/3/etc.
And you receive the agreed salary
Than, owner said:
“Y’know, buddy, i rethink the company payment policy.
Maybe i pay you too much.
Now you will take 20% lesser for same work.”
They make this “bug” earlier, and noone (but some toxic boyos, which already researched everything) complain 'bout that.
They (Gaijin) have a shitton of really annoying bugs, which all ask to fix.
But they prefer to break any variants of extra gaining in grindy as duck game.
Noone (but some mf’s) ask.
That’s not good, I agree - but that doesn’t negate the fact that it was a bug and correcting it is reasonable.
So funny thing, they did not only tuned down the reward multiplier for rockets and small diameter bombs but for most bombs in general. Yes even 500lb and 1000lb depending on the aircraft

As you are finding out: some would (and they should be ignored).
What in the actual f****? Are 1000lb BOMBS NOW ROCKETS?
So in other words they nerfed bombers that LITTERALY DONT HAVE ANY OTHER ARMAMENTS
Same goes for here, they literally don’t have any bigger bombs
Ye, sure. If it were fixed ASAP (like bombers falling) so no question. But that bug is so old so we can call it “by design”.
And now snail’s bad organisation of work process become players problem.
Well said. Bugs and errors exist to be fixed, full stop.
If people want to have a discussion about intended design, then that has to be done with regards to the, well, intended design.

No, that’s not what happened. And your analogy fits even less because there is no “fixed contract” here. Even TOS and EULA claim explicitly that the digital contents can be changed at any time. There IS nothing fixed by contract in this context.
My bread analogy thus fits better, as also there the store/bakery has no binding contract with he customer regarding quality and price of the items offered.
Still, if we would take your analogy (disregarding the “fixed contract” aspect…), it would be roughly analogous to this:
You have a job, you do the work, you regularly receive your salary.
No for some error in HR, you start receiving more salary than before! Yippie!!!
This is then eventually recognized, and corrected.
This is where it already stops to work well as an analogy, as with your salary, depending on who you work for, the company would possibly or most probably request you to pay back the excess money.
Also, you might get even into legal trouble as you most probably have something in your contract (or is regulated in local laws) that you are responsible to immediately inform your management if you realize there’s an error like this (too much or too little salary for example). Getting more than you deserve and just accepting that, not reporting this, would actually be theft.
This does not apply here, and the error was known and reported by the player base, if I understood or interpreted it correctly.
Still, there would actually also be the paragraph about " Exploiting Game Bugs, Errors, and Flaws. Taking advantage of any bugs or flaws for personal gain." under the “Unsporting Conduct” chapter in the game rules.
Difficult to track and implement here (and unfair too, I find), I guess, but there were cases before were using such exploits were getting out of hand and were punished with at least temporary game bans…

Nope.
In my example ain’t been any part about “start getting bigger salary” - only about cutting it by 20% (even after rocket nerf, which sux x2), so, please, don’t perverting my words.
About “bug abuse”.
Before last patch, noone (except complaints) call it a bug. Even devs.
So - it was more than legit.
They just cut a gaining for players (again), and call it a d̶a̶y̶ “bugfix”.
About “Unsporting conduct” - it can be used only, if this type of gameplay will hurt/broke someone else gameplay.
And it wasn’t.
So - invalid take again.
A long time ago, during the open beta test, the Fw-190D-13 was added to the game. It was the first premium aircraft in the game, if I’m not mistaken. It was overpowered, climbed like a rocket, and dominated everyone. After a while, when many people had bought it, Gaijin released an update where the patch notes mentioned that due to a ‘mistake,’ the D-13 weighed several hundred kilograms less than it should have, and now this ‘bug’ was fixed.
This is to say that the current ‘bug’ with the rockets is not a bug at all, but a nerf.

People on reddit realised realy soon that they not only nerfed rockets. Snail Nerfed Bomb income too and not just a little. They hid that behind the controversial Rocketnerf, so people think its a overall plus, instead everyone is affected.

They hid nothing, it’s in the patch notes.

oh comeon. you can read the changed in the screenshot too. it makes no sense. At least be honest and tell the customers that people made too much income… But even if it is that way, i guess you wouldnt know either
Well done, you shot down a clueless AI attacker
I’m 100% certain that real player would react the same way too, fly in straight line and twiddle their thumbs
Yeah the Tents, from a standpoint of Model and logic wouldnt be a problem for Rockets. I agree. But they would be useless against buildings like Factories. I think its a good decision to get rif of it, but the bomb nerf is kinda sad…
