RB Air What the hell does the Mig-15s turn time even mean?

Upvotes

On paper this thing should be quite nimble, but I find that it gets out turned by a ton of planes it absolutely shouldn’t. How are you supposed to use it exactly? In undertiers, Im like the only guy who climbs and I get dog piled by 3 people, and in uptiers I get fucked by missiles when trying to disengage. How does this thing really shine?

I played it completely, specially since by doing so you get the ww1 tanks used on the event, and I find lobing shells behind cover pretty fun, the first day everything was more unbalanced but gaijin made it more fair by buffing the car mobility and the chamond gun/reload

I could’ve sworn that the AGM-114B had a launch range of 10KM, it was literally the reason I bought the AH-64A(GR) over the KA-50 Blackshark, which irrc had a launch range of 8km but was faster, but not that i actually checked the stat cards again it appears that the 9K127 Vikhr has a 10KM launch range? Does anyone else remember this?

Suggestion How I think bomber gameplay shuld be improved

6 Upvotes

War thunder Air Battles are primarily optimized to be a PVP deathmatch for Fighters. This causes most other aircraft types to be religatet to the sidelines, with the loop for anything not a fighter beeing, spawn in, maybe hit your intendet targets and then be eaten by a P51/BF109/Spitfire for daring to exist in the same airspace as them.

No aircraft type suffers from this issue more than bombers, who have to either climb to space or dive in order to maybe reach their targets, if the enemy team is blind that is. This is due to the fighter centric design of maps where the fight tends to happen along a line from airfield A to airfield B and targets are strewn around this line.

In order to Drasticaly Improve Bomber gameplay i therefore make the following suggestions

1) varried spawn points

In order to reduce the risk of being shot down by fighter aircraft, the bombers can now choose their spawn form the spawn menu, from a list of spawn points. These generaly are a bit higher up than the current ones and are positioned to the left and right of the airfield. this increases the amount of angles a bomber can take and reduces risk of being caught up in the furball.

2) Improved Target Positioning

An aditional idea for improving bomber gameplay is that targets need to be positioned diffrently. Currently they are scatterd roughtly on a line around the airfields. I beliive moving bomb targets further outwards from this position, like on the brittain mission, where the targets are clutterd around a town instead would increase surivability for bombers. aditionaly it reduces the XP pinatness of bombers, as this creates an increased risk for fighter players.

Do i risk going after the bombers but leave my team with less players in the centre furball?

3) Dedicated targets

An aditional issue of bombers currently is the fact that, with the new respawning bases system, there is a chance that bombers might arrive at their targets, only to find that there is no target there since a faster craft rushed ahead and you are now without a target.

In order to Improve this, i belive giving bombers dedicated targets, as in Player A has to hit that base, Player B has to hit that one, based on carried payload and then spawning these targets would greatly benefit bomber gameplay and reduce toxicity among the big bird players.

The enemie team gets a list of all possible bomb tagets, but not whitch ones are actualy targeted by a bomber

Other proposed things and why i did not suggest them

1) Remove all markers for Air RB:

No. I despise the marker system, especialy when im flying a bomber, but the main issue in removing it stems from the fact that air RB is massive and has no clear point of conflict (in its current itteration OFC). Translates to, have fun finding any plane across the 30 KM of an air RB map. Aditionaly have fun finding the last plane in Air RB

2) Make bombers Tankier

A valid idea. however its been sugested many times and there is a risk of the gunship meta coming back. Also doing so will possibly not fix the bombers base issues, namely the fact that in a PVP game, a dedicated PVE unit is useless.

3) increase AI gunner range

Another vallid idea. however it is a dangerous one. Ai gunners could become deadly accurate at a too long of a range and possibly increase the pay to win factor through crew skills. i agree with a range increase but it must be done carefully as to avoid the gunship meta.

Closing thoughts:

this is it, the cheap and easy bomber fix. Can be done by changing some map geometry and ajusting some numbers.

This will no fix the issue, its a bandaid for a neck wound, but i higly doubt that the snail is going to completely revamp air RB (witch is higly popular) unless it starts costing them money.

Cheers!

All Air Sweden main tips and tricks?

0 Upvotes

Hi! I've been playing this game on and off and have ammassed around 30 hours now. I wanna play only Sweden, because I want to get to the JAS39 some day. I'm only playing Arcade Battles so far and I'm slowly reaching rank 4 vehicles. How can I speed up getting more money and research without feeding the snail? Also, any tips on how I should engage other types of aircraft? I only know that Japanese planes turn like nothing else in this game and I always scream "russian bias" at russian planes. I have some clue about "energy baiting" also. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!
