Is it a good or a bad sign I’ve spaded my stormer and mostly without premium….
Yea, 2 missile passed ah64a, 5 missile passed ka 50 6th killed it, 2 passed a10a, i died to a drone that was 8k away so my starstreak blew itself on its way. Ping 130 nothing more to add
I spaded my stormer without premium.
I did not
I got annoyed by it (over 100 ping is normal for me) and gave up
Yeb I’ve done a similar amount of research into it, i got it just before the missile changes so i only got a decent stormer for about 3 weeks
Oh, well i got it some time after its release, i think 2 months i had a break around that time, and the missile was doing bad with high ping even then.

If i’m not mistaken when comparing starstreak and blowpipe they used the fact that blowpipe was effectively brainless to use compared to starstreak as an advantage for blowpipe. Something about morale was mentioned too I can’t remember the specifics. Basically they used blowpipe being so shit that it was actually an advantage.
It was vs Stinger. And they had all kinds of copium for why we shouldn’t just buy more Stingers.

MOD moment.
Aren’t the starstreak issues inherent to the way it’s implemented rather than the fuse? In game it works like a dumb manually aimed SALCOS missile, while in reality the launcher handles leading the target and the operator only has to keep it in the field of view. Everytime I have them passing through targets when I go and watch the server replay the starsteak actually missed the target by 1m or so from the servers view. Wouldn’t the SARH or laser guided heli ATGM mechanics be a better option, they’re server side I think as I have seen them score direct hits on fast moving targets.

I agree this system should be implemented I recently got hte stormer held off for about 2 years but this thing really needs a rework its terrible as AA you have a better chance using the Ozelot then this which is kinda sad.

You know it’s bad when I’m getting more kills with the stormer against tanks than I am cas… not gonna complain about finally being able to kill mbts but I really don’t want to be able to watch 5 of my missiles phase through a ka 50.

I killed 3 bmp2m’s the other night and got a (hit) on a ka50 3 times only for the kill the taken by an adats, that’s an embarrassingly bad spaa.
You took the ground kills from the tank destroyer so it took the air kills from you. What did you expected?
A hypersonic missile to just work?.. Ahh i see my expectations were too high… XD
Just had a game where I was revenge killed by a heli in my chally mk3. I got in my stormer but then wasn’t able to kill him due to the missiles being basically worthless within 2km and any missile hitting him just phasing through. If you’re going to butcher this thing just move it down in br. It’s worthless to being over the ra 35.
I swapped the stormer for the Za-35, way more useful
Was waching this yesterday, and got the stormer part :
Look at it phasing through.
No rush though Gaijin, no rush.
that probably is the root of all evil. Fast jets are just not worth shooting at because the missile will “phase” through them.
Helis of course are fair game, I exclusively run the stormer as a heli killer. Too bad the Starstreak sets off MAW and all the approach warnings (which all things told it probably shouldn’t if Thales are to be believed)
