No thanks, US players need to get better at using their missiles, not just be handed more of them

Meanwhile USSR players firing 3+ R-77-1 at one player:
Didn’t make their WR go up tho to have that many r77-1

I don’t think that’s particularly fair either, especially now that the R-77-1 is equal to the AMRAAM, top amount of missiles per aircraft should never go over 10 per aircraft in ARB, because when you start multiplying those ridiculous missile counts by the team sizes, top tier becomes a ‘who has the most chaff’ dick measuring contest

It is still a Flanker end of day and most of the time they’re facing teams with France on them so you won’t see much of a spike there anyways.
I suspect the “win rate” of USSR will obviously skyrocket when the Su-35 comes.

Change the reload of the t-90M to 6.5 seconds

Ahistorically, no thanks
So, when can we expect a dev’ stream on this update ?
In about 5-6 hours if it’s usual time

Read what?
You being objectively incorrect in that comment as well?
The R-77-1 is superior to the AIM-120 in every metric.
Moaning about missile count is irrelevant when that’s what those aircraft carry. It’s the same stupid argument as moaning for an IR only or dogfight only game mode:
“No you don’t understand!??! I need to use my jet with its hand tied behind its back!”
Thank you.
Fine, get 16 missiles, the average US player will still get 1-2 kills a match because they lack the basic understanding of how to use them.
That goes for everyone, as per what my second comment states, missile counts shouldn’t exceed 8-10 because that’s more than enough for the current top tier gameplay, if you are complaining that 8-10 isn’t enough then you aren’t using them right, so 16 wouldn’t help at all
And?
The same could be said about getting 12R-77-1s+2IRs.
More means more opportunity for shit to happen.
“We don’t need supersonics”
“We don’t need missiles”
“We don’t need radars”
“We don’t need all-aspects”
“We don’t need ARHs”
“We don’t need…”
Boo-hoo
1.)it’s already exceeded that number, so you’re just gatekeeping parity why exactly?
2.) it’s not going to be like any more additions are going to be less than 10, regardless of if you die on this hill against the GE anyway, which just makes you stupid
You should be focusing on the missiles themselves and avionics rather than the count, a great radar and 8x buffed amraams is significantly better and has more kill potential than a mediocre, poorly modelled NATO radars + the sloppy AIM120 seekerhead and kinematics we have rn
And?
Why should it be limited when other stuff already in-game isn’t?
Why would I assume they would action any outstanding issues with AIM-120s when they haven’t already?
Stop being obtuse, Im campaigning for overall balance that benefits everyone, not just the same mediocrity we have now, but 2x.
You are falling for the ‘more=better’ slop that doesn’t help anyone, War Thunder is a game where quality > quantity, as seen with the 6x MICAs of the mirage 2000s and 8 of the Rafale being a signifigantly more powerful loadout than 12x R-77-1s.
If the Amraam was un-nerfed and US radars were improved, the jet would be better than a flat increase in missile count

That will be nice
Why would I not want both? When it should have both.
It’s already getting what will be the best radar in the US tree, that’s what makes it a GE.
No you’re campaigning for a section of the game, top tier ARB, which I have 0 interest in so it could kick rocks for all I care.
I’m not falling for anything, I am well versed in the GE.
And there is 0 scenarios where “oh yes I would definitely rather take less missiles” when the only penalty to taking them is the missiles own drag.
Carrying more means getting more to kill bad players at long ranges, having extras to force good players to notch longer (with your worse flight performance than everything else in this bracket btw, almost like that is what keeps the SM afloat… weird), and it allows you to do more without having to make yourself vulnerable by landing.
It would not.
1.) un-nerfed 120 HOB (even C-5) capability will still be worse than MICA or R-77-1 significantly, it just won’t be so dreadfully poor as to be unusable anymore
2.) there is no reason to assume an increase in 120 seeker head A) will come B) would not correspond to a similar increase in the rest of the equivalent ARHs at its level
are we going to have update live today?
No dev stream with dev server today like always
