Gen 4 with Fox-3 is, of course, worse than Gen 3 with Fox-3. This is a well-known fact.
If all of you just keep fighting with “no my nation is shittier” instead of pressuring the devs, no, it will not happen.
Not trying to fight here just stating my opinion as I’m not a “meta enjoyer”, I simply like cool vehicles and German Typhoons are certainly one of them. You might call me weird but I enjoy the game and its vehicles regardless of them being meta or not.
This has been going on for 5 years, or how many years has it been since the Mig-19S came out? This was the last relevant top.
Have you ever used Derbys or R-Darters? It really is not that simple especially when you consider the sorry state of Gripen’s radar on launch.
There’s nothing stopping you from using the JAS39’s advantages as an aircraft to compensate for this difference.
The difference in radar on otherwise identical Eurofighters can’t be compensated for.
But Germany shouldnt have gotten Mig-29 until Britain got the Gripen C. It was unfair for them to get the Mig-29 whilst Britain only had the Tornado F3
Maybe Germany itself owned the MiG? As far as I know, a private company in Britain owned the JAS39, but we never saw those specific aircraft; we saw fantasy planes from Africa.
The main subject of this forum was:
1: Make the german EF an untouchable ovni
or
2: Give the German EF the 100 degrees fov that should have
Since it wouldn´t be good for the playerbase that only one nation has an unfair advantage like AMK, the best is just give the EF the 100 degrees, but somehow we are talking about how unfair has been the game with nations instead of just trying to fix a problem that isnt even in game yet.
Well there was and still is and its AIM-120 to the face. AIM-120 has much better long range performance than R-Darter and unless you get close with the Gripen you will be at a solid disadvantage with enemy dictating the fight basically.
So that’s the root of the problem. It’s clear the developers have been deliberately putting the German tech tree at a disadvantage for years.
There’s no sign of this changing.
If your skill doesn’t allow it, you can always fly no higher than 60 meters and get as close as you want.
Very easy counter to that is simply a top attack ARH toss which not many people apply into gameplay despite being a highly effective and almost guaranteed counter to multipath.
Shocking information, but you can use multipath + notch at the same time.
And I still stand by my statement
I´m not denying your point, also the game has been unfair with another nations, but if you point that the forum just fills with whatabautism instead of fixing something.
There isn´t a real reason why the german EF shouldnt have the 100 deg Fov, but now youre trying to speak of skill ichu and other things that doesnt help in anything.
You can have any opinion, but in a competition between players of the same skill level, the winner will be JAs39, not F4F
I think its good to keep the thread active so developers could see its receiving a lot of attention from the players. Might actually encourage them to change things. Bug reports are up anyway so we can just wait
German Typhoon’s Captor-E ECRS Mk1 Should have 200° Total FoR // Gaijin.net // Issues
That is the best bug report I´ve found about this matter and they just said “no, it says 90, it should be 90” even when the users give valid proofs.
Swedish JAS39C? Absolutely. JAS39A or SAAF JAS39C? Not really, it depends on multiple factors. Its kinda pointless anyway since you barely ever fight 1v1’s in ARB
