I feel like just adding another easy to play premium to their almost top tier line-up would end up causing 95% of all matches to be USSR vs USSR
Something like a BMP-3M with Arena APS or a BMP-2M Berezhok Kurganmashzavod would probably sell a lot
At least both sides can have Kh-38s, LMURs and Pantsirs in such matches lol
edit: designations bruh
I wouldn’t be surprised if this is the plan for the endgame of content for Gaijin, to make all GRB battles mixed in order to not care about balance and add more “broken” additions without having to care about asymmetry.
I don’t think they ever really cared about keeping nations even somewhat balanced
Mixed matches already were the default when I started playing and you can’t really do proper asymmetrical balance without properly seperating them into redfor and blufor
At this point the game would probably be better off without nations, just give everyone a Mi-28MN, a Su-30SM2, a Leopard 2A7, a BMPT and a Pantsir SM-SV lmao
The only thing that would really vary between the meta players are the light vehicles, some may prefer a big gun (Centauro II (P), CV90120), a large autocannon (2S38, HSTV-L) or a medium autocannon with missiles (Jaguar EBRC)
I like how because it only shows the impacting fragments you can actually clearly see the outline of the aircraft in the fragmentation alone
So apparently there’s such thing as a “Russian Bias” tag for threads lol, anyway this one got tagged for it and is now a machinery of war thread if anyone cares.
I would have preferred if this stayed in the general Game Discussion section, as I intended for this thread to be used to discuss not only the new Pantsir, but the balance in relation to top tier CAS and other top tier SPAA as a whole. The Yak-9K APHE thread got to stay in there despite being entirely about a single vehicle’s balance, but alas it is what it is I guess.
I do think that being annoyed at the pantsir is the wrong thing to do. It’s here, gaijin isn’t going to nerf or remove it. Simple as.
What gaijin should do is buff the big modern multi-vehicle SPAA everyone else has to their realistic capability, to even out the playing field.
Bit confused, nothing about the post above has anything to do with my annoyance for the Pantsir. Here I’m talking specifically about what I want this thread to be used for, and why I created it. It’s in relation to a edit from a forum moderator placing it in a different section and changing the tags.
if you don’t like the direction the game is going just stop playing and buying premiums, until that happens they literally couldn’t care less
I’m aware, but the thread ended up being used exclusively to complain about the pantsir (and by extension a bunch of other russian stuff) when that just isn’t the solution to the issue
Mods are trying to bury it, we have several Russian vehicles are breaking the game threads and they don’t want more. I’m amazed no one has come to close it.
Guess even the mods are sick of Russian biased
They’re likely more sick of the way people are acting in these threads. A lot of people:
A: Aren’t staying on topic at all.
B: Are being disrespectful to others.
C: Are unwilling to have good faith debates, instead devolving conversations into ill-faith arguments.
Good time for me to remind everyone to NOT do any of this please.
No they would close it if we gave them an excuse to, which is why the KH-38 thread collapsed after 3000+ comments. Russian players so determined not to lose their I win button were very much acting in bad faith. Suppose now Gaijin did nothing but buff the Kh-38 despite the uproar.
And now players know they wont make any changes, it’s eat this crap up until June.
I love the pics, they are fake (or done with mods) tho, right?
Yes, ofc
Just a teeny tiny bit of fragmentation
I’ve legitimately never seen fragmentation mimic airframes like that
That’s cuz there is so much shrapnell it covers the plane whole(and more), and the game does not render shrapnell doing no damage.
So you get this.
Ooooh, I didn’t realize the 96Ya6M had a warhead that acts like canister/shrapnel round
No wonder I’ve never seen that lol
