USA A-10C bias needs to be 12.0 to be “fair”

Did you bug report that?

Not the R-73 issue. Would need your gamelogs for that.

But i’ve tried to report things like PGMs randomly exploding in Sim before and went to double check in replay first only to encounter CTDs whenever I tried. Why I started using ReLive for capturing wierd events in Sim instead of replay. Much easier to get feedback with a clip

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Its not a second but its brief. If you watch the video again, the F-15’s flare intervals are enough so that each flare is popped a brief moment before the previous flare goes out. Essentially, it was good flare spacing by the F-15.

I don’t have an opinion on this since I don’t like playing the A-10. Grinding subsonic attackers in ARB is pure pain.

Send a gif of the seeker head from the moment of that photo, for the next 3-5 secs.

According to your logic, wouldn’t a big flare dump with engines off be more effective than continued flare popping?

And yes that’s why we are talking about sim, since as the other guy said, sim is the last good place for strike aircraft.

Ah I see. I just screen recorded since Xbox series X can take a 4k 1 min re-wind clip.

Kinda bummed. Wanted to see what actually went wrong with that r-73, and I’d pull the logs, but I doubt I can do that on Xbox.

I can say though, it only crashes for me when I select a player to view.

Fast forwarding too fast can also cause crashes. Which is a problem with how much you have to fast forward through in Sim replays

Right haha.

Dropping flares periodically and not spamming flares would be more effective against the R-73 yes. It hardly matters if the F-15 had AB on or off in that situation because the FOV is already locked in.

Btw the R-73 being 4.5deg FOV after it reacquires lock is a replay bug, its 0.75deg FOV the moment it locks on. If it wasn’t then it would’ve gone for flares because the R-73 is more sensitive to flares than something like a 9L.

Oh wow look it’s some actual stats on why the A-10C is unfair

That’s an insane KPB

No question A10 is over preforming. Made great use of the HMD which it shouldn’t be able to slave.

That being said the 1 9M didn’t look like the seeker was turning off which makes me wonder if the 9Ms need a bug report aswell.

People will say sim is different … and it is, it’s even better, because the IFF ;)

IFF, and smokeless aams that nobody can see

Yup, pretty much what I’ve said over and over. A-10C breaks the whole 11.3 bracket, 11.7 bracket… poor 10.7 & 10.3 bracket

Btw who’s the YouTuber?

This is sim. Dont play 10.3 or 10.7 aircraft in full uptiers then.

I dont play the Sea Harrier FRS1e (10.7) because its DOA vs the Mig-23ML (11.7)

(Heck the Sea Harrier FRS1 (11.3) is DOA vs the Mig-23ML (11.7) at the moment)

(edit: Mig-23ML finally has the correct BR, missed that but point still somewhat stands )

Sim or RB there’s always someone playing a full down tiered plane, because they need to grind it.

At this point, what do you actually have to argue? Speed? And speed alone? It’s only 200 mph slower than its counter part, at a lower br currently than its counter part.

Grind another thing, or suffer XD

It is faster to grind new vehicles via the spade bonus you get than it is just pure grinding I find.

Depends on how good that vehicle is.

A-10C should be 11.7 .it should be the same BR as the Su-39s. On balance, its equal in most respects. But using the argument “my poor 10.3 is going to suffer” in a gamemode where uptiers are purely optional. Is just a bad argument.

RB is different, and i barely play RB so im not really going to comment on its placement within that gamemode. But I think if anything, its worse in RB than SB notably and 11.7 would be pushing it a bit (BUT… +/- 1 BRs do need to be considered and for that reason alone, it should be a higher BR in RB as well. Likely 11.7, though so should the Su-25BM)

10% extra if you die a lot, it’s not worth it, you have less RP at the end
