Sons of Attila - Rumor Round-Up and Discussion (Part 1)

R-73 for new Russia multirole fighter or no?

if it’s not in a devblog then they can’t talk about it, even if it’s coming to the game he can’t say.

“As are any new weapons this update”
No R73 for you, methinks.

ICE Is probably coming next update along with the Grippen

Teaser possible today?

I know I know

Most likely

For 11.3 it’s ok, the issue is the matchmaker and the top tier compression, 11.3 almost always sees a full upteir and those uptiers are brutal.

If that were the case, then NATO should get AIM-9M, R-73’s counterpart.

Russia already has the best radar missile via R-27ER, do they really need the best (by far) IR missile too on the already most maneuverable plane as well…?

Suppose so, but it’s not really an 11.3 plane then if it’s always facing MiG-29s and F-16s

This was on the Tornado F.3.

Except R-73 isn’t new anymore. Its already in live on the Su-25BM.

Ah okay, thanks for clarifying

MiG-29SMT is probably coming but I doubt it will have the R-73 as the F-16C wasn’t announced with any new weapons. Giving the MiG-29 R-73s now would be unbalanced, hopefully by December though.

What a shame the vidar is a premium, I really wanted to get it

I imagine it’s because GB top-tier is filled with flying bricks meaning GB players get well practiced using them and develop tactics to cope with their weaknesses.

I usually do pretty well in the Tornado, but it’s not because I’m good with it or it’s a good plane; I just hug the ground really hard, only engage when I’ve got a good chance, and use my teammates to soak up the enemy attention.

It’s a really stressful way to play, and takes a lot of mental energy whereas some aircraft in other trees can kind of just play however they like and take risks - I think this is where their "OP"ness comes from in many ways and why I don’t like the justification that weaker aircraft’s stats are fine therefore they’re not struggling.
