Weather bans?

oh sorry that I’m better at ground attacking than dogfighting while not being able to figure out how to use radar-guided missiles till yesterday, ever occur to you that maybe most of those deaths were to other players firing missiles rat me and me not having flares rather than because of clouds? (FYI I fly very low most of the time)

yall have problems with that? the only time I crash into terrain is when I clip a tree or can’t pull out of a dive in time and I have no issues landing in bad weather

It doesn’t even need a switch.
Only things what it need is just remove some weather + time presets.

At the least, these weather conditions should be acceptable.

Noon + Thin Clouds

Noon + Cloudy

Dusk + Cloudy

However… These weathers MUST gone from random battles

Dusk + low clound cover

Dawn + fog

Yeah the first 3 cloud conditions you provided are good.

To be precise I find the problem with clouds to be: some specific maps (valley, rocky pillar etc) have high altitude, but the altitude where clouds appear is a fixed number, so on those maps weather conditions like thunderclouds and low clouds cover appear to be clouds spammed all over the map, sometimes even make the runway, bases, ground targets invisible, and also make multipathing nearly suiciding.

(Your last screenshot where clouds cover the whole runway must be the mystery valley map lmao. It’s so toxic that I have keep it in the ban list)

These all screenshots are Korea map :p

Still waiting they bring back Korea map for 7.3 to 9.0BR jets but, it is offtopic.

It is honestly surprising and depressing at the same time that there are players in the community who are demanding weather conditions like Dusk + low clound cover.

Those weather conditions are literally worse than night battles.

People forget there’s more than just radar-equipped aircraft I feel, and even radar-equipped said radar kind of becomes useless if everyone is flying low for early ones.

I love cloudy maps whenever I’m playing the Belgian F-16A. Not only do I have to fight fox3 with IR missiles almost all the time but now they are completely useless in most matches too. So, the best I can do is to act as bait and hope my team gets spared.

Indeed high risk no reward

so you are struggling to adapt and overcome.
Like MANY others on this thread or most threads for that matter.
At this point, lets just throw some dice, add up the numbers and decide the outcome by that rather than actually partaking lol

Are you going to be like that other guy who claimed you can use echolocation to find a plane flying in circles within a kilometer-tall cloud as an “adaption”?

Tell me, oh wise man of the internet, how would you find someone camping inside this cloud and denying an A point? They have 8x8x1 kilometer of space they can hide within to still affect the objective.

Or sticking to RB:

How do you intend to see the enemy aircraft so that you can actually hit them in these conditions? The red marker doesn’t tell you their attitude and you kind of need that to dogfight and hit someone other than sitting on their tail. And even if you do get to use the red marker… Amazing, playing a WW2/korean war dogfight to click on red nameplates.

I get it, you dont want to work, you just want decisive engagements every time with little effort.
You are only thinking of what is good for you with little acknowledgment to others desires or needs, i see it all the time.

Give me an actual answer rather than grandstanding and offering as much substance as a politician doing fund raising.

“sorry commander, I am denying your request to engage because there is light drizzle, aborting engagement, I prefer engagement methods that are beneficial to both me and my enemy to put us on equal standing rather than utilising what is available to my own benefit depending on my method”

How about refining your methods rather than complaining about bloody clouds like they are some kind of unexpected phenomenon.

"Enemy has 10hp more than me, there is light rain, temp too high, I dont like sun, my dog stepped on a bee. . . . . . "

This literally happened?

Allies abused the fact that clouds travelled with their bomber formations to prevent axis single-engine interceptors from taking off.

Give me a bloody answer or find a sewer to stink up.

You are in this position:

You are contesting an A point, which ranges roughly 8 kilometers north, 8 kilometers east and there’s a 1-2 kilometer thick cloud cover over the entire A point.

You notice that the objective is neither being captured or lost. You dive below the cloud cover to find your opponent.

There’s nobody here.

So you climb through the clouds to search above, knowing you must be under roughly 5 kilometer altitude to affect the capture point.

Nothing.

You dive under the cloud.

Nothing.

You climb over the cloud.

Nothing.

Meanwhile, there’s 1 guy who trimmed their plane to fly in permanent circle at 1.3 kilometers altitude along the circumference of the objective forever.

You spend a good 5-10 minutes looking for them and the objective is about to expire.

How would you find this guy?

wtf you doing at 5k if you wanna bomb?

Some self acknowledgment would go a long way.

Another example of the community who expect everything to be in their favour irrespective of their bad decision making.

Fucking tiresome to see this same calibre of obnoxiousness.

Who said anything about bombing?

There’s an air superiority point. It is captured by having an excess of friendly aircraft within the 8x8x5km cube of space.

I am wasting my time with people like you. Bombing or not. The problem is you not the bloody weather.

Give me a solution.

How do you find a guy flying in permanent circles within a (1 or 2) kilometer thick cloud spanning 8x8 kilometres.
