I’d like to make a quick disclaimer that I’m making this post for the purpose of learning about other people’s experiences with top tier, I myself have plenty of hours in the game however I personally feel that with every major update, top tier (ground and air) just becomes progressively worse and worse. Before the UFOfighters, Terminator Rafales and Su-30s on perc, top tier air was generally more playable (depending on HOW playable it was is up to your judgement) and when I first flown the GDR Mig-29 2 years ago, it was more convenient to grind such an airframe where you’re not glued to the floor for majority of the uptiered games when Aim-120A and R-77s weren’t as big of a nuisance compared to current top tier missiles launched from platforms that have vastly superior radars.
As for Ground it just continued to be the same melting pot of CAS and annoying helicopters.
I would like to ask your opinions and predictions on how both modes will be in terms of playablity in the next major update and share me your current experiences.
Well the SLM made me wanna play above 10.7 for the first time in like year or so, so i have high hopes the situation at top tier will somehow stabilize as jets will now actually have to do something other than smashing spacebar few times and getting six kills.
Remains to be seen yet, as of current dev server SLM performs rather poorly from what other people tested and i hope it gets fixed.
Otherwise im afraid we will get with this as soon as there is bug report forum mod involved:
Interesting, in all fairness other than the Pantsir. If the new SPAAs are modelled and function properly then MBTs themselves can have a bit of breathing room which forces CAS and Heli players to be more smart with their approach.
My main concern would still be Air since the eurofighter will receive the Aim-120C5 however BR decompression is needed since I’m trying to have fun in the F-16C but it’s mildly inconvenient right now, guess I’ll have to take the F15E out again.
Im holding any judgment on C5s until they are implemented live, in the other thread ive been just told that currently theyre just longer range 120A/Bs which doesnt sound that bad, but ultimately remains to be seen. What worries me more that instead of using C5s to equalize airframes (giving worse airframes C5s and keeping better airframes with A/Bs) both F-15E and EFT get C5s.
Like lmao ok. Not so much with EFT due to CAPTOR still being gimped bt definetively with F-15E.
I don’t want to play top tier for the major reason it’s just unfinished product.
I remember when they first gor Phantoms and MiG 21s in game …something like that.
I’ll play when the bugs will be fixed and everything else that is to be fixed.
After the bug with the radar that stuck and can’t reset , i decided it for my sanity.
I can play till 12,7 or something , and be ok in general.
