Why was the F-15E/I nerfed after just one day?

Loadout? The plane had Fuel tanks, Conformal fuel tanks? How much Fuel did take?
You need to prove better guys if you wanna change something/nerf a plane.

Do you have evidence that the nerf is incorrect? If so, present your case.
After all, we aren’t in charge of adjusting performance parameters ingame. You’ll have to make Gaijin believe that they made a mistake.

You make it seem like we WANT the F-15E nerfed. What we WANTED was for a BR change and other nations to receive aircraft of similar performance, like I’ve mentioned numerous times already.

Check airplane configuration on the page I sent.

And my guy, the F-15E at release was able to easily reach mach 2.3+ at 10’000 meters, with CFT on. And then take a 6-7G turn while barely losing any speed. You’re absolutely crazy if you think that was correct.

I did say that the nerf might have been slightly too hard. But even if that’s the case, we went from UFO overperforming to slightly underperforming. Not optimal but a lot closer to reality than before.

Feels like I am talking to a brick wall. No matter how I present what I say it just gets ignored.

Give to another nations buff, hmd for Su 34 then i dont care, or make br change for F15E. I have Ussr, German, Italian, sweeden top tier air tech tree, but i think now its underperforming better than the real life at high altitude, high speed and with light loadout/fuel take.

,I did say that the nerf might have been slightly too hard. But even if that’s the case, we went from UFO overperforming to SLIGHTY UNDERPERFORMING. Not optimal but a lot closer to reality than before."

Slighty underperforming is word is the key in your sentence.
I think so too.

You brought your topic into mine with excuses like BR, skill issue, and unrealism, when Gaijin allowed all these lies that made the F-15E “advantageous” during 3 weeks of DEV. And now you’re telling me that after just 1 day of the update release, the jet gets nerfed because it doesn’t match reality? The F-16 itself was nerfed so that Russian fighters can engage with it, where only cannons are used in specific situations.

The nerf should be reverted. When the Americans get something good, it’s not allowed? Only other nations have to get one line and one phrase: “It’s true,” for it to be buffed or nerfed.

I’m not going to waste any more time debating with you. You’re just bringing your topic into mine. It’s not worth the time invested. If it was really necessary, they would have already created the BR.14.7 in the DEV.

Please, go to sleep, you’ve already got what you wanted!

A nice, false nerf to an American fighter.

Prove it, you have served no evidence other than your feelings about it. So prove to me it was capable of what it was doing pre-fix.

Other nations have tech vastly superior to the F-15E. It’s just not in game right now because if US mains don’t have tech leagues ahead of others their players perform horribly.

If you want a pre-fix F-15E then give everyone their equals. Give everyone the Eurofighter, Rafale, Su-27SM3, J-15 and JAS39E. Or would that be “too op” for you?

F15C still wipes the floor with every jet ingame, what are you on about ? It has insane TWR, excellent missiles and the best electronics ingame.

J-10 and 2000-5F are the only real contender at 13.7.

You are being the delusional one here.
What do you mean by “when the Americans get something good?” Do you seriously think F-15C was not enough? Do you think F-15C is a bad plane? Go and ask other players, players who main minor nations like Germany, Sweden, France, China, etc. on what they think is the best overall top-tier fighter in the Air RB environment right now. They will say it is F-15C and its variants.

Germany has to fight F-15C with a PHANTOM and a MIG-29… You think that the F-15E is fair? The F-15E is the F-15C but better in every single way except for maneuverability, which is hardly important outside of 1v1s. So you’re telling me that you don’t think that F-15E is unbalanced, and Gaijin found it not necessary to increase its BR.

You make excuses such as “It’s only Russian mains that complain about F-15E” when it is quite clear that the players of other nations also believe that pre-nerf F-15E had absolutely NO business staying at 13.7BR in air. And when Gaijin does something that alters the performance of the F-15E, you automatically blame it on us as the reason.

This is absolutely absurd behavior. We wouldn’t be this mad if Gaijin would add Eurofighter, Rafale, Su-30MKK, etc. to other nations when F-15E is added. But no, and the best part is it is a straight-up upgrade over F-15C at the exact same BR, a jet that is already considered to be one of the best currently.

What is the equivalent loadout of the F15E for a 55600 pounds test ? I can see this is with CFT, but what of the fuel load ?

F-15E with full CFT I’d say.

Now Even without CFT it underperforms in game than with CFT on the graph In Real Life.

I was looking at some sources I could find with a quick google, and it looks like this is it yeah. Full CFT apparently get about 10 tons of fuel, so it looks like it’s a loadout with full CFT and almost empty internal fuel.

So with full weapon loads the F15E should perform even worse than this.

Yeah im just gonna say the drag nerfs might have been a bit too heavy handed. This thing cant even come CLOSE to its stat card top speed. I’m unable get past mach 2.26 with no weapons and min fuel.

It was certainly a UFO prior, but this is just silly, it’s now just a f15c thats fatter.

The F-16 is overperforming AFAIK. Remember that they also removed its G limiter because everyone was crying it was unfair ?

Every FM at high tier is botched. I’m pretty sure the only plane that perform somewhat accurately is the F15C. F16 and Gripen grossly overperform. Soviets planes either underperform or perform close to reality when all their opponents overperform. Mirage 2000 has a weird FM that underperform at the very least in roll rate at slow speed. Tornado F3 is missing top speed at every altitude. Yak141 meanwhile is a complete UFO.

No no, it’s actually absorbs rounds. I might even have proof of it still on video.

You either don’t play against them, or aren’t aware, but either way it doesn’t change that the auto loaders without a doubt, absorb darts sometimes.

I think the same.
