Should napalm be removed from any plane classified as a fighter?

I enjoy sim a lot, but the fact is we have an issue in arb, if your only way you can think of to fix the issue is, to not play arb… then the issue is bigger then i though

well yes they do. All tanks somewhat perform in sim, arcade and realistic. All ships perform in enduring, arcade and realistic. ARB is the only mode where certain vehicles are completely unplayable

So vehicles don’t necessarily have the same playability in every game mode

Yes it is. The implementation of bombers (and tbh even attackers) in arb is actually so bad it’s really sad when you think about it for a second. Their gameplay is boring, repetitive, offers little skill and little reward, they’re little help to their team and are mostly just rp piñatas to every opponent.
Yes it’s sad, it’s why we need RB EC with huge maps and interesting terrain and objectives. Bombers and Attackers can never work with the way ARB is, which is a team deathmatch

Yes and that’s the issue lol. Why are high tier bombers limited to air sim

The nuclear gamemode in the future will make them more useful.

If you want to change the gamemode, ask to change the gamemode. Or new gamemodes like the recent nuclear one.

Asking to remove weapons from other planes is not it

Yep, will only move the issue a slight bit. Not even fix it, just move it

Huh?

If you have even a single gun, you can take out like 50% of the ground targets.

With bombs, all targets and able tk be talen out.

Because those fighters have the ability to carry bombs.
If you want fighters/multirole to lose bombs because “they shouldnt be bombing” then bombers/attackers should lose missiles because “they shouldnt be fighting planes”

This is the main issue. If they brought back the af bombing, it would make thing leagues better. Would give bombers a solid target that lets them actually win the match rather than taking up a slot.

The best 11.7 fighter in the game.
F-1C is also slower, but not sure why you’re bombing in something that’s great as a fighter.

The F-111 is a good fighter? Wouldn’t have guessed, but noted
I’ll give it a go when I get there in the US tree

not really. you are completely reliant on people not noticing your giant plane and the only thing you have is speed. you dump an insane amount of energy in pretty much any turn. you absolutely can have good matches in it but that really just depends on how good the enemy team is

I guess that makes sense. Might still be fun though, I’ll see. But thank you, that’s good to know

Lol not gonna happen.

Someone should explain the nebies that 1) Fighting actually gives more rp; 2) Teaches you skill and the knowlage; 3) you will have fun in air rb, rather then dying by friendly fire base stealers teammates and lev 100 getting their free kills from newbies

That’s not what this thread is about…

But you get to “enjoy” the awful sim economy and the many problems sim has

So is it OK to you that these fighters steal the only thing the bomber can do, then go on to do their own fighter thing as well? That’s just selfish and not sportsmanlike

They currently AREN’T there for bombers

Blame gaijin, not the bomber players

If you are actively stealing bases from dedicated bombers, I will certainly blame you in addition to gaijin.

Which is something to be fixed, not lauded

Not practically… being capable of technically doing something does not mean you are actually able to pull said thing off.

Let me just lose all my altitude so I can bomb howitzers, that’s a great idea

Wing sweep set to 0.
Your top speed is mach 1.07ish on the deck, and you dogfight better than Mig-23MLD [as well at higher speeds].
F-111C is an amazing sustained turn rate aircraft, and certainly the best at 11.7.

Automatic wing seep should only be activated if you need to escape after leveling your aircraft.

He said they are not capable of doing it. Im pointing out that they are. And for the high tier stuff, like f111, you are more than capable.

But yeah, if you are in something like the tu4, it will be a pain to use your guns on them.

You dont have to drop alt if you have large bombs.

And if you do have to drop alt and dont want to attack ground targets, then go wait for mini bases to respawn.

Until they add the af bombing back, dedicated bombers will not be viable in arb.

Teams dead, 5 minutes in, 5 people searching for you

Then you will just miss more often than what is acceptable

If you hit anywhere near the center unit, you will get multiple kills for larger bombs.

Okay? Then go for ground targets. Those are your two options for bombing. Mini bases or ground targets.
No one is saying they are perfect options
