i dont know if youve noticed, but the distribution of top tier vehicles in a given match is not even.
Lets say I play 8.3 russia, I face multiple 9.3s and a ton of 9.0 demons, meanwhile my team is mostly 8.3, 8.7 and a single 9.0. NONE 9.3s, while enemy has several of them.
the match is over in 2 minutes, usa dominates every match.
dont tell me this is balanced or working as intended.
gaijin fix this
It is infact working as intended, It’s just a stupid design.
Gaijin do Big br changes , just wait
really? they recently changed a BR for something during a minor patch, look it up. single vehicle br change in a hotfix. but they wont change something like demon. the entire BR area is unplayable unless you get to be on the usa side…
Never , they only change brs in waves
right and im making this up lol… clueless
Cause the F3H is mid.
There are more powerful 9.0s for facing fighters.
AIM-7Cs are neat for taking out bombers, but that’s their whole shtick.
Against other fighters? Their flight performance negatives hold them back.
All 9.3s are far superior to them.
But yeah, people will have to re-learn how to fight F3Hs.
Get in close, dogfight, move on.
There should be one br change soon, they usually release one after major updates
the demon is one of the best 9.0’s in game, with similar sub-600ias thrust weight ratio as the F-5C, an amazing set of guns and able to out accelerate the rest of american planes of the br outside of the f104 and f101 (which are cannon fodder)
The thing sucks at endurance dogfighting and it only thrives by nosing onto people and clicking them out but the moment you gotta turn flat you’re just prey. It’s great at sitting below people who messed their trajectories but that’s about it. It’s an easy plane to play, with a good kit and a decent thrust to weight ratio at disengaging speeds. If you rate fight you die. So yes, while it’s one of the best 9.0’s with 9.7 potential it is going to stay there because people will 100 percent take the ratefight instead of flying away or looking behind to see what the enemy is doing and go one circle to revoke the energy fight about to be unleashed.
Cause the F3H is mid.
Said from the guy who broke a wing trying to dodge an aim9b they could totally have ran away from.
Beats me. This thing is way better then the F-86K.
next BR changes cant come soon enough.
Agreed. It just is consistently easier to use now so a lot of poor players now can get a kill easier, thus making it feel oppressive to other players that haven’t honed their skills yet.
Nuking 8 f3hs in one match in my ariete is a daily occurrence.
A friend of mine uses the Lightning to decimate them all the same.
If you play to your airframes strength the f3h spam is actually a good thing because you know how to counter the entire enemy team.
I just hate fighting them in 8.0 planes. Most players of it suck a lot, so I rarely die to them, but it is really annoying having to constantly keep eyes on them while I try to engage other people
Sure, but in the past these unfair battles were about 5% ish, now it’s 50% or even more. Should be a valid reason to overthink the rules of the matchmaker.
It’s even more weird:
9.0 matchmaker has no mixed battles, so all demons are on one side.
I played over 100 battles 9.0 to research and spade the CA-27s/F-86E. All downtiers were against demons, if they were in my team it was uptier, most of the time full uptier.
Sidenote. In all these matches I died once to a sparrow…
no? after the update they are very good, everyting that fly high is in danger, the fact that its the same br as the F-102 is laughable
It was a predecessor to the F-4. So odd that it hasn’t.
The Demon was pretty sub par, mid at best at its BR honestly.
The missile buff last patch apparently has mega improved it though, I havent tried it but have seen some reports.
it’ll go up in BR probably when gaijin get to it. If its oppressive enough they might hotfix it, but otherwise it wont be till the next BR change which I imagine is another month or two away?
The missile can still be avoided with good reaction but yeah the planes too good for that rating now especially cause it has four of them
