Su 30sm2 should be weakened

And I’m sorry to the post made about adding r-77m to the sm2 but it definitely doesn’t need it, that missile will come with the 120d, meteor, mica ng, that would make the sm2 op but as it stands with the -1’s it’s not going to turn the tide like people seem to claim it will

I haven’t touched pointer since I started (the guys who I got me into this played ace combat 7with me) I just copied its controls over and it worked, just had to add more as more came out but yea sas is a life saver

You people always knee jerk anything new for Russia because let’s face it. You’re filled with hate and fear for an entire group of people. I’m American and it’s nice to see Russia getting aircraft that can compete with the rafale and new aesa euro fighters. Now if only they would fix some of the American aircraft to be competitive.

The US received aircraft from the 1990s and 2000s, the USSR and Europe received aircraft from the 2020s. And Russia will always receive OPs.

I’d really like to see American aircraft receive new air-to-ground weaponry.
I believe they need the addition of the GBU-53/B StormBreaker or the AGM-154C I also hope they provide the Typhoon with HOSBO

Currently, the best CAS choices for aircraft are the Kh-38 and the AASM Hammer

The AL-41 engine allows the Su-30 to return to the airfield more quickly (I am not against the Su-30 obtaining the AL-41).

However, I believe this will exacerbate the CAS imbalance in GRB

However R-27ER works only with hard lock, have been trying to do it during several updates, but didn’t work.
People just hard lock the target, launch, then release the lock so their RWR will stop warning about the missile and once by radar you see the missile is close enough, you just hard lock it again and using data link, it reaches the target.
Hard lock - inertial flight - lock again and bingo.
People keep the TWS on because it’s just more comfortable to track the target like tha

Have you actually looked at the numbers or done any research into this?

Even in RB, the game count and player numbers started falling off a cliff in February. The only spikes in player activity are from airplane build events like the F-106.

I haven’t even bothered booting the game up.

This is what sim allegedly looks like 2 hours before the servers update.

The game itself has a massive player turnover rate. Most people that play are not going to bother grinding multiple trees to top tier.

True. If there’s no event or new vehicle that interests me, I usually just open the game claim the daily login reward and then close the game

Remember the vt4 incident? you didnt want to give japan a vt4, but happily took in an m1a2 from taiwan, you guys play the victim card so perfectly.

yea but we had to wait and see if we should give F15C GE it’s extra missile because it could be too powerful, anyway here’s Su30SM2 at the same BR with better missile, radar, and thrust vectoring.

And Still MICA ll Still beat it xD and his missile ll be dodged by Rafale

I had conversation with Statshark developer a long time ago about the player population and turnover.

Basically the game gains and loses 30% of it’s players every month. And the retained players are also constantly quitting but being replaced by people that are earlier in their WarThunder cycle.

Understanding that the game operates effectively as a revolving door with increasing smaller filters makes a lot of the game development and direction make sense.

However, I said that the vt4 can be sent to Japan, provided that the M1A2T is not deprived of the Chinese system.

I agree with you. I don’t know if Gaijin is aware of this problem. Sometimes they launch very fun modes for April Fools’ Day and other special occasions, but once that mode ends, I no longer feel like opening the game to play

They are certainly aware of it and it surely factors into the way they structure the game.

If you are getting 30 percent brand new players every month from advertising and can sell even a fraction of them an $80 premium then you have a successful business model. Even better if those players keep repeating $80 purchases to grind out new tech trees if they actually find the game addictive.

OH! This is why they keep releasing new top-tier premium packs even though top-tier players constantly complain about teammates who die once and immediately leave the game

This thread is still ongoing? Wow.
Anyway here’s a timeline map:

They might make some adjustments to the Su-30SM2 but perhaps they won’t be major.
I still prefer waiting for it to be on the live server before any adjustments are made

There’s been a few minor ones already. Unsure of what more could be done?

I don’t know, I haven’t opened the Dev Server today to check if there have been any changes
