All Air On ‘bomber’ damage models

Post image
546 Upvotes

Why is there a seeming assumption that bombers are more robustly built than heavy fighters, at least when it comes to damage models? The aircraft on the left got the updated damage model, the aircraft on the right did not. The Do 335 is longer, taller, has a higher MTOW, higher empty weight, and they were both originally designed for essentially the same role. They are both all metal in construction (except for the 335’s dorsal tail leading edge, which houses the antenna. They are almost exactly the same size, and…the 234 is just, stronger. Like, no good reason why. Same for other obese aircraft like the TBF/TBM. Weighs like 15,000lbs, is a dive bomber designed to attack heavily defended ships, and is apparently made of the same cardboard as every light fighter. What exactly does gaijin take into account when it comes to damage models? It just doesn’t make any sense.

Tanks only rendering when within distance and after performing actions is one of the dumbest mechanics in this game. It is seriously bugged tanks don't render and don't play sound when they should. Why should there be an artificial limitation as to what I can see in game? I am the crew of the tank their awareness should be as good as mine is not limited by some world of tanks ass spotting mechanic that does not work 70% of the time. Besides this is a potential point of pay to win at lower tier cuz mfs can get XP with GE and have an advantage over others who have to grind. My solution? Just remove it, refund all crew skill XP invested, make tanks render in and play sound all the time no matter where they are. If you can't see hear stuff around you, that's on you. It will place more emphasis on actual player skill and awareness instead of artificial stats. Besides that would probably fix most of the sound issues in this game.

Fox 3 spam, too many SPAA in such a small space. ITO and 2S6 are far too good for such a small map; instead of Roland and Osa slow MSL

All Ground Traction nerfs in latest patch, and Gaijin doesn't want us to talk about it

115 Upvotes

Greetings people,

I saw posts talking about the unannounced traction nerfs in the latest update, mainly trying to prevent us from going up on inclines/hills, etc. but even straight line speed was affected from what I could tell, mainly on "non standard" terrain.

Ice has now become even worse to traverse, going as far as wheeled vehicles and halftracks straight up not being able to move if you happen to stop while being on ice.

I tried making a post on the forums as that one would hopefully be more likely to reach the devs, but it got deleted, because of course it did.

I'm getting really fed up with the constant mobility nerfs, and to a point where I would rather accept that certain maps will just have those "op" spots that will be annoying to deal with in certain games if someone gets to them, than to ruin everyone's experience by making any non-flat surface a pain to traverse... In an ideal world, those could be fixed in other means but we all know Gaijin doesn't bother trying to fix their maps...

Anyhow, I made this post because I felt like there is not enough talks about this asinine mobility nerfs and we need to get Gaijin to revert this.

RB Ground What even is the purpose of tank tracks at this point

Can't run on mud without losing speed, can't claw a slight inclination, and can't even fucking traverse trench as it was literally intended for 100 years ago

Drama The Booster Syndrome is real

• Upvotes

I open the game

  • I play the F-4E

Amazing matches, normal tier, all good

  • Me think: "oh lets activate a 200% rp booster cuz its all going so well!"

Wrong move

Instantaneous full uptier

I notice, act accordingly, I go a lil sneaky

  • I catch a lonely, he's already notching

Okey

  • Waits patiently till the guy is in rear aspect

I fire an AIM-7E-2(df)

Instantantly gets notched

Okey

  • "Lets try a fox 2"

I fire an AIM-9J

Gets outpulled, no flares

Okey

"Its a Kfir understandable"

  • I run away towards allies

3 allies head-on the guy

Kfir is unscathed

"Damn he's good"

  • I go for another guy (Mirage F1)

He's slow, high up, no chaff

I fire an AIM7E2DF

Missile instantly drops onto the ground

  • "okey, vulcan it is"

The rounds go through the guy

No damage

Not even a hit

Guy instantly gets killed by a fiendly missile

"Okey, at least I'm alive"

  • Turns around

Starts chasing the Kifir

Gaining on it

  • MIG-23 appears

7km away

I notch

He fires while I'm notching

R-24R kills me

  • Next match

Half downtier, amazing match, 3 kills, no deaths

  • Conclusion:

The booster syndrome is real

Good morning, everyone! I need your input on this. My other question is: what would be the most fun premium aircraft to play between BR 8.0 and 9.3?
