I mean the most egregious current example is the fact that Ka52, Mi28NM and Z10ME are completely immune to every A2A and SAM IR missiles because of their overtuned LDIRCM that acts like a scifi forcefield
That’s in spite of the fact that IRIST and 9X are both laser resistant and can home-on-jam
That’s a game mechanic that massively increases their survivability in an unfair and unrealistic way, and it’s been months
It’s just one of countless “bugs” and unbalance that give a massive advantage primarily to russia which persist for months or years
And of course there’s the massive double standard bug report handling, the ‘marketing lie’ bs, their stinger overload debacle…
edited to remove a couple words too offensive to ru mains’ eyes
And yeah that’s the dishonest/uninformed reply I expect from ppl who depend on the bias in question - it’s just disgusting really. You’re basically cheating and you’re either lying about it or you’re so clueless that you don’t even know it’s happening
Completely false. lol, I can’t believe you skipped the FnF helicopters, you know, the actually broken ones.
Lmao oh I’m cheating now? Get a grip.
I genuinely hate playing helicopters because if you aren’t clipped by an spaa, you’ll get killed by a plane. And gaijin made the models so “detailed” some would say too detailed, to the point that a single 7.62 can disable a whole helicopter. Which is unrealistic. You’d need something typically bigger than a 12.7 to do reasonable damage to any avionics, and you wouldn’t knock ALL systems out with 1 hit, that just doesn’t make sense.
The longest heli string of kills I’ve ever gotten was 7, in a Mi-35M, because the enemy team was dumb enough not to spawn spaa. And let me tell you, the Mi-35M is not a good heli.
3 helicopters don’t prove Russian bias. I could prove US bias by showing 3 undertiered American planes if I want to use the same standards as you.
Russia is not a top nation for most BRs in air or ground. They are consistently good, but they aren’t overpowering at nearly every BR (unlike American CAS).
The whole bug report system sucks and the lack of communication plus poor sourcing requirements (needing exact data for example instead of educated guesses), or their lack of report implementation makes the whole system not be as good as it could be.
It is just 3 helis but it is essentially god mode, so it is still very significant and would/should never be allowed to happen with a NATO heli. Let alone for 3 months
Don’t bring china into these bias discussions, they get screwed over so hard when it comes to everything else. Also, 3 helis that few people play is nothing compared to American CAS/american planes being so much more dominant in air battles.
China benefits strongly from russian bias both directly and indirectly
These helis are common and the Z10ME in particular has been in nearly every game now that CN players have discovered that it’s invulnerable to IR SAM (same with how they discovered the micro recon exploit)
Air battles are utterly irrelevant to this convo.
China has some of the worst top tier tanks because Gaijin keeps them nerfed by not adding their spall liners. Their CAS is a single helicopter, or a Flanker with 6 KH-29s, and their top SPAA isn’t too good from what I’ve heard. If anything there’s an anti-China bias.
I’m bringing up air battles because it relates to the topic of this thread, and them alone can completely disprove any thoughts of Russian bias, or Russian domination.
They benefit from overperforming ERA, autoloaders eating rounds that would otherwise be lethal, they have excellent optics, insane IFVs, the HQ17 is good, the CS5 has LOAL missiles with fictional burn times, time fuzed rounds, the heli is invulnerable, the TY90 is also pure fantasy… They’re the 2nd most handheld nation, and this latest “bug” with LDIRCM proves it.
Air battles are still irrelevant because the teams are mixed. I wouldn’t have a problem with russian bias if both teams in ground had Kh38, Pantsirs, pinpoint accuracy Vikhrs and scifi ERA. Please tell me you can understand that at least…
You know what nonsense is ? It’s when you claim that Soviet tanks have bias but your own performance on T-80UM2 is relativley lesser than your own average even worse than on Ariete PSO.
