Su-27SM: Ferocious Flanker!

The F-15C coming into the game is MSIP II?

Still too early

What a discussion

the beauty of a dynamic duel, he struggles all the time to maintain a 1C fight while the 16 tries to push for the 2C

GS does a great job of teaching BFM geometry, always presents it in a well explained and easy to understand format. Ik people hate on him sometimes but he always does a fantastic job of that imo.

He teaches only the necessary for you to learn how to counter X plane with Y plane, no technical bs, amazing guy.

Early models of the Eurofighter like prototypes should come to game this update but only Russia is allowed to get the modern stuff

The “EXTREME balance” in question:

People have to stop coping, USA has multiple times more players probably than all other nations combined, blue players leave just as much as red (you can observe this simply by looking at the player stats during a match and usually the blue team has a literal scroll bar), it’s just that for every one that leaves theres already 3 waiting to join the match, blues simply never run out, its why the average red sim player has a high kd and low win rate while the average blue player has a decent KD and an 80%+ winrate.

Look personally. I do not care about this aspect of Sim.

Balanced or not I enjoy it and I prefer having low amount of teammates therefore I do not have to fear getting teamkilled and if I ever really feel outnumbered I just bring a wingman and it is very easy to clear a lobby.

Again Personally the team balancing I can care less for I have extreme amounts of fun always regardless.

This is also why I never mentioned this aspect. Maybe you feel affected by it but personally idgaf and if I don’t like it… I switch lobby or again… bring a wingman.

Not gonna whine because most people prefer playing blue team so…?

This is just my perspective on it!

And I would say 5% out of 95% of bluefor pilots actually know what they are doing and its always 2% out of the 5% who will go out of their way to clear redfor teams just to prove ur team balance point but then again I just switch lobbies.

It is a simple personal fix to this problem and it makes playing red more risky and a lot of fun and it feels very rewarding when you get a triple splash etc.

Again just my opinion but yeah!

Also the winrate thing is just bs. Most if not all simplayers can give 2 flying effs about winrate. We play sim to enjoy the aircraft not worry about stats.

And k/d is a fun personal challenge imo. I always love chasing high kd in my favorite aircraft but at the end of the day it is just a simple statistic it has no true meaning.

So then you do admit the “Extremely balanced” thing is incorrect right? its fine to wanna play with less teammates, i dont mind having more targets, but this imbalance is extremely prevalent, to the point blue players sometimes literally have no matches to join because all the ones avaiable are already lopsided, “just switch lobbies” isn’t an option when all the lobbies are outnumbered 1 to 3 lmao

No technically speaking about aircraft performance sim is extremely balanced.

There is no imbalance at all.

The team balance is a discussion I honestly have no opinion on so that is your field and something I honestly do not really care about.

Just being honest.

And yeah sometimes there aren’t any lobbies due to the balancing that is true but personally again that is never a problem for me.

I play with a community and it is as easy as a quick discord message to get a lobby up on either side and then as we know blue side will flood extremely fast but yeah.

I dont have much of an opinion on the balancing and do not really care.

We need bigger maps and I only really enjoy max 5v5 in sim, any bigger lobbies I usually just do max 2 sorties then switch lobby or host one so.

disagree, gripen have 6 good ir missiles in a furball meta with 720 flares and the best in doghfight

There is a solution. Grind more than one tech tree. I have every US aircraft, but that doesn’t stop me from playing France or Germany to always be able to find a game.

nah we atleast need Su-30SM or Su-35 with R-77M and R-37M to counter Rafale’s and Typhoons with its Meteors, f15c is alright

Yep, because of we’d skip the Typhoon DA2 with Aim-9Ms and Aim-120Bs and Typhoon F2 with Aim-9M/ASRAAM [Block 1] and Aim-120C5s and skipped straight to the Typhoon FGR4 with ASRAAM [block 6] and Meteors

and R-73s are arguably better than 9Ms. They work in different ways, and better for different players

uh yeah 9ms are easily flared and unusable in a dogfight.

I think I will stick to my trusty archer that is also easily flared but is atleast… usable in dogfights.

Imo 9Ms are extremely shit.

The R-73 is useful in different situations, but based on the way the Aim-9M works, it is more capable and efficient since it has more practicality. It’s not that they work differently for different players, it’s that they have different playstyles.

How is it more capable, efficient, and practical?
