Sale anxiety time once again. Help me choose:
T-72 TURMS: Have BMP2M and Object 292. TT only ground out to Rank V.
Type 96AP: my current main nation. At 9.3 in TT so spitting distance to 10.0 lineup.
Challenger DS: have Bhishma partly researched. At 8.0 otherwise.
Leopards: Love germany but no lineups past 8.0
M1s/XM: Kind of like USA but got nothing past Rank IV
Type 16 FPS: Love Japan but stuck at Rank IV. Also heard it has a shit round.

Going forward I'm simply going to assume French players saying their shit is bad is just gaslighting to gatekeep people. 2 IRCCM missiles that are 100% kills with jack of all trades flight performance plus good guns and a ton of countermeasures and you niggers were saying this was bad? Literally nothing can kill you

Magic 2s are still heavily underperforming btw and are the only missiles that have been heavily nerfed since day 1 to keep them from raping everything
Missing 33% thrust
Missing its seeker shrinking before launch
Missing its 50G overload

>2 IRCCM missiles that are 100% kills with jack of all trades flight performance plus good guns
You mean shit that only works against literal shitters
Also the F-4S is a far stronger buy because the nerfed multipathing, you fly to center and get 4 - 5 kills because you can't hug the ground to dodge SARH
>>
>>483583671
You can't, you aren't fast enough so you can't just fly away from F-16s and MiG-29s and your acceleration is bad so you can't high tail out of a dogfight after bleeding the enemy of their energy.
>>
>>483583871

So the people at any BR past 9.7.
F-4S doesn't research the French tree. Why would I ever buy that unless I want to play mutts.

M1KVT/M1128 Wolfpack are great vehicles but it's not in any way worth dealing with fucking dogshit American teams. No matter how hard you try, be ready to drop your winrate 10% (I average 60% in every other nation, can't crack 50 in KVT). The only premiums in this game I regret buying for this reason alone.

T80UD>TURMS. Won't be on sale til the anniversary around November though, unless you're really desperate to grind USSR I'd just wait.

TURMS is the only good T-72 if you didn’t get the Moderna. But the new T-80U premiums will be better purchases when they eventually go on sale

it isn't, at least without the plane ripping itself apart. stuff like, drag, rip speed or wing overload are editable data (you can make biplanes fly at mach 2 lol) which usually aren't specified in flight manuals or performance charts so good luck proving gaijin the plane doesn't behave like it should.

Premium time isn't on sale currently
But when it does go on sale, whether you are paying with GE or dollars/GJN depends on what you're buying
The biggest premium pack you can buy for dollars/GJN is 180 days. The biggest you can buy for GE is 365 days.
Buying 10k GE to buy 365 days of premium with GE when it's 50% off, is more expensive that buying 2x 180 days of premium at 50% off, (for a total of 360 days), directly with dollars/GJN
>>
>only now realize that the Type 16 that I wanted to get is only Rank VI
Do I still go for it? In any other tree I wouldn't give it a second thought and would wait for a higher Rank premium to go on sale, but the Type 16 in particular has so much going for it.
>good backup in the premium Type 74G when GE premiums go on sale
>lack of backup for the premium Type 90B (except for the F-5E FCU)
>Rank VIII consists of a whopping two vehicles (which is why I somehow missed that the Type 16 and Type 74G are both Rank VI)
If not the Type 16, I'll probably get the Mirage F1C-200.

I would imagine they did, the 57 mm L/60 (the naval gun) and L/70 (as found on the Begleitpanzer) used the same ammo.

Personally think the problem with prems nowadays is that most of em are just a better versions of existing TT vehicles which is just boring as hell.

The problem is there's a big community, some want premiums to be unique and interesting so they have a reason to buy them, others want premiums to be reskins so nothing is actually locked behind a paywall, then there's the issue of what to use for event vehicles, and as usual Gaijin chooses the most boring, milquetoast options possible.

At least the 2S38 is interesting.

And if you remember that these turn rate nerfs are accomplished by giving planes a shitton of drag, you'd understand that they can only improve speed retention by reducing that drag and, consequently, improving the turn rate. This cycle will never end so long as they want to both nerf the turn rate AND improve energy retention after that while using this lazy method of adjusting FMs.
>>

So is it a nerf or a buff
You talk much with saying a lot
>>
>>483597962
It's lazy practices that lead to unplayable planes with both dogshit turn rates AND ridiculously bad energy retention as well as the inability to bug report the latter as it literally can't be proven, that's what it is.

Wirbelwind for no skill
Ostwind for learning skill

Wirbelwind has a better volume of fire and you need to engage under from 1.5km under but it needs to reload.
Ostwind has less volume of fire but can fire without reloading and has a bigger shell obviously.

I used them both a lot, as for now i prefer the Ostwind but if you don't want to learn it wirbelwind is goated. Also consider the zestorer

Brokenly OP for its br and has been for years. Basically a post war destroyer fighting wartime wooden patrol boats mostly. Haven’t played much since the dm change but it used to absorb even battleship salvos, had an absolute black hole dm. Fast firing guns that annihilate most of what it sees, can quickly cripple and repair lock destroyers at a higher br than it, shreds anything the same br or lower. Also gets the best rank modifier for event score while being able to fight reserve
>>
>>483607930
SKR-7 is the most handheld coastal warship in the game, and it sits there with a lot of perks on top of that.
Extremly good rate of fire and reload, it has only HE and HE-VT shells that are good against ships and awesome against planes at 4,3. Extremly fast rangefinder and overall mobility. It also has some rockets that you can spam and they SHRED ANYTHING under 2.5km. And i mean, if you find yourself between 4 reileigh light cruisers and they are under 2.5km, you can actually kill all four of them.
This will not happen obviously, but it has those kind of capabilities.
Torps are shit.

This said, it also sits at rankV of the coastal tree, so if you run it at 4.3 with something like the Smely for challenges naval challenges, you get a RankV score multiplication by using a fucking 4.3 lineup. Oh and it also gets the frigate spawn.

Feels good to have grinded the majority of trees a few years ago and I never have to buy a premium again, condolences newfags
>>
>>483611029

yeah your top tier premium options before this update were:

> worst 11.3 phantom ingame for $70
> single worst 9.7 ingame (flareless subsonic that flies like shit) for 9090 GE
> (removed premium) sheepfucker sandnig base rocketing supreme copy paste for 9090 GE as well

This update it got slightly better with a trolly MiG-21 that has modern missiles and avionics, but as a grinder its still kinda ass and not worth $75 total (on sale its fine).

I still recommend getting the Wyvern or Sea Vixen on sale, and putting a talisman on the squadron Sea Harrier FRS.1 since it gets four AIM-9Ls and regularly faces flareless planes that cant do anything against you (like J-35D, F-4C, Su-17M2, etc.)

those plus a few months of premium account on sale is cheaper than a british $70-75 premium jet and a lot less painful

Can someone explain how the actual fuck can the front plate of the Somua deflect a shot from SA47 from around 0.3 range while aiming downward in my AMX TO100?
It's fucking almost 300 pen, and with how tall the AMX is relative the the front plate, the effective entry angle would be like less than half if shot straight, yet the game gave me a fucking ~30 degree reverse-upward bounce.
>>
>>483611029
You can do it with the F4J but it's best to base bomb (take 11 x 1000lb bombs) but then can join the fight after you've dropped them all, your radar is good and the skyflashes are great in short range head ons so you can often catch people out who go straight for you thinking you're nothing more than food. With all the premium bonuses you'll earn a shitload on a good mission.
>>
>>483613713
is it not just food for radar missiles at 11.3?
>>483612116
i'll look into the squadrom sea harrier, i'm not that good with cannons which is why i'd shy away from the wyvern or sea vixen
>>
>>483614192

>im not good with cannons

You're gonna love the sea vixen then.

It literarly has no guns. No gunpods, no built in cannons, nothing.

Instead you get the single best air-to-air missile at 8.7 on one of the best flying subsonic airframes with one of the best SL and RP multipliers ingame.
>>
>>483614192
>is it not just food for radar missiles at 11.3?
tbf it might be now, I played it a lot with the multipathing values before the update and would just fly under them all when in an uptier.

>Sea vixen

>>
>>483608506
The gun is simply too small, no plane survives a single hit from the Ostwind, not even bombers, also the fact that is heavily exposed means you're unlikely to survive a plane gunning you, you also have very little ammo, also the Kugelblitz has no reason to be 7.0 BR at all it should be 6.3 at best, if you can aim, the Ostwind 2 is the superior AA until the Radas SPAA
>>
What the fuck.. i was waiting for this sale and no sale on premium time or golden eagles?


FUCK THIS GAME.
>>
>>483614490
oh really? well fuck, maybe i'll get the sea vixen to grind up a bit then. is there a TT vehicle to switch to once i get to up to higher ranks?
>>
>>483614823
I feel you. I don't understand why every sale has to be different. I don't want any of the bundles but was hoping for premium time/GE.
>>
>>483614823
They never discount GE.
>>
>>483614815
for me i cant use the german 37mm cannons, the velocity throws me off but i can use the wirbelwind and the kugelblitz very effectively
maybe i should use the ostwind some more and get used to the velocity, it just never clicked in my brain though
but the hvap, at least last patch on the mk103 used to light planes on fire quite often for me, but it did like to just pass through quite often too
its a mixed bag for me
>>
>>483615125
>They never discount GE.
Yes, yes they do.

summer sale is packs/bundles only, pretty sure it's been like that since the beginning
>>
>>483615125

I remember distinctly, buying a pack that gave you GE at a discounted price and also gave you bunch of premium time. was called flowing gold or some shit.. i have an emblem from it.
>>
>>483615096

again, either talisman the squadron Sea Harrier or just fuck around and find which TT vehicle you enjoy the most at higher ranks. i personally found the Harrier GR.7 to be fun to grind with before they moved it up in rank.

it has about the (if not better) performance of every other thing in 10.0 - 10.3 at least on my pc. If you cannot make it work it's your fault, not because the T-80 is krok magic to you. I bet you never ever played a T-72 \ T-80 in game. A M1 Abrams can react WAY MORE effectivly to what happens than those tanks

Not much. The lock range should be longer, but it's artificially nerfed for pretty much all MANPADS for balancing reasons and only matters against helicopters.
Regarding the overload the bug report is completely worthless as it doesn't address Gaijins line for reasoning for the currently chosen average overload at all. Guidance algorithm and if the control surfaces are actuated gradually or only in bang bang mode does not at all affect the ratio between maximum overload in the maneuvering plane of the missile and maximum average overload. In fact you want bang bang controls for maximum average overload, or at the very least control surfaces that are actuated fast enough to get close to it. That however does make the missile bleed more speed.

I've never seen that big of a coupon, and iirc the P-47s are relatively cheap already, so I would. I scooped up all the GE P-47s during one of the last anniversary half off sales and don't regret it. The premium razorback German one they phased in is kind of a piece of shit but it's still a monster with the teams you get. The Russian one is even better.

If you have any trouble with the early P-47s, get used to turning on MEC and using 0% radiators(up to 10% on desert maps), 85% pitch, 90% mixture and it becomes like 10-20% better and never overheats. The auto control for that particular line of planes sucks balls.

>>483626168
hmm ok man
do those sales come often?
>>
>>483630894
Set dates are around May, game's birthday around October, Christmas and New Year.
You can get coupons for 50% and 75% by playing but they're rather rare.
Unconfirmed but I've only had them drop for the more expensive prems, so you'll still drop a hefty amount of eagles if you do end up using and buying with them.

That shouldn't matter since it's reporting individual player losses rather than reports of teams containing USA. The chart suggests that the USA players are deadweight while the presence of other nations is a stronger indicator of success.

Granted there's also something fucked up with the thunderskill data since it only seems to be reporting old planes that were upgraded with Fox-3s rather than newer ones like the 27SM.
>>
>>483661564
It absolutely would matter because those players are what make up those teams. Thunderskill US player draws the short straw and ends up on the bad side of the F-14 missile wall that’s a loss in the US column through no fault of anyone’s. Two thunderskill US players end up on different teams and automatically that is a US loss added to the tally. Remember the red here is largely in the 50-60% range, a perfectly even wr would register as one of the worst performing brackets in the entire chart, anything that draws it to 50% will make it look terrible

I’d say they aren’t really. US at 11.7-12.7 and 12.-13.0 sits at ~55-60% based on the chart. It’s about as high as it gets and would very probably be much higher if it weren’t for mirror matches dragging the win rate. If 1/5 US matches in that dataset is a guy on the wrong side of an F-14 mirror match it is going to drop the wr by 20% when it’s recorded. The more US players queue the closer it drops to 50/50, well into the red, even if the F-14 is completely unbeatable

You're still stuck up on team vs team. Not each team is going to have an equal distribution of american players or will result in an equal number of american wins and loses.

Example: A 10 american+6 russian vs 4 american+12 french. No matter which team wins, it's not going to generate an equal 50:50 win:lose for USA players on thunderskill.
>>
>>483666349
It won’t, but it will certainly drop a solid green 70+% wr into the 55-60% bracket which is colored to be read as bad, and will ensure it does not leave that range as long as mirror matches exist

>>483667870

bait used to be believable dude.

>MiG-23 dominates for years

You mean how the MiG-23M was so bad on release, they had to give it R-60Ms to compensate? or do you mean the MLD, which only dominated for 6 months before the F-14A got added to wipe the floor with all of top tier

>Su-27 dominates for over a year

Su-27 was added in december of last year. it has only been 6 months dude. And a competent F-15 player can kill beat it any day of the week with almost no effort

>R-27ER is still the best SAHR in the game by a large margin

and the platforms that launch it are limited. The N019 and N001 radars were dogshit, thats why gaijin gave them R-27ER to compensate. Also the MiG-29s can only take two R-27ERs, while you had US planes with 4-6 SARHs for years before that. USSR gets their first plane that can carry more than two ERs, and its instantly screwed with a borked flight model, underperforming radar, and subpar competitiveness against competition. You couldve just hugged the deck and negated the ER like any other radar missiles. Also a few months later Fox 3s got added.

>BVM still the best overall MBT at top tier

lol. lmfao even. it had decent armor until recently and thats about it. Other MBTs have better reload rates, better mobility, and since the 2A7 and 122+ got added, better armor as well.

>2S38's damage model being fucked to shit for two years

1.5 years. it was added November 2022

>Pantsir still the best SPAA by a large margin at top tier
>2S6 is 10.7 while the fucking OTOMATIC and type 89 are 11.3
>A T-80U at 10.0

>Ka-50/52 dominating for years with its still broken damage model

gotta incentivise players to buy the 6 different USSR top tier ground premiums. its the same thing gaijin does with US top tier air and their 5 top tier premium jets.

You're just ignoring how THE top dog was the swede grippen which didn't have 73's or even any SARHs of note?

The 27ER would have been dominating the meta if we would have had today's multipathing for the past few years. But we didn't. So all radar guided weapons were cucked and everyone fought with fox-2s'. The 9M and its relatives were always better than the 73 and magic 2 because their IRCCM actually works at ranges greater than ~1.5km, which made them ideal for farming kills in the furball.

Don't forget the Radkamfwagon that can actually turn its turret or the missile on the flakrad that it doesn't actually have irl.
Germany is easily the biggest beneficiary of imaginary things.
If this game had started in 1950s and there were never ww2 tiers then East Germany would be a subtree of USSR (if even that lol) and West Germany would be a subtree of the US

>or do you mean the MLD, which only dominated for 6 months before the F-14A got added to wipe the floor with all of top tier
MLD was better than the F-14A until literally this patch
>b-but AIM-54s
Gimmick missile that never killed anyone but the dumbest gorilla niggers alive; the MLD was faster than the F-14, accelerates much better than the F-14, could not wingrip like the F-14, had a slightly better instantaneous turnrate and significantly better sustained turnrate than the F-14, and has a better gun than the F-14 albeit with less ammo. The most significant advantage that the F-14 had was that AIM-9G/H were and still are much better missiles than R-60Ms, but typically only two are carried.

- f14 had ARH

The Kron was never remotely close to existing as modeled and never would’ve been built as it is in game, both due to soviet industrial shortcomings and the design having changed from what is shown before cancellation
>>
>>483672028
All of this is wrong of course except for the R-60M/AIM-9G comparison. MLD rated about 2 degrees per second better, (it rated as well as the F-16A did until the F-16A was buffed), and is still faster today. Also phoenixes, like every other missile in the game, do not explode when they hit the ground, they disappear without exploding; it has always been this way except for a period that lasted about a week earlier this year.

>MLD has better gun than F-14

lmfao.

also you are gonna casually ignore how the F-14 had better radar, better SARHs, and overall better kit for its missiles and avionics, which was the main cope US players had about the MLD, since the F-5E back then could still dance on anything at top tier meaning dogfight performance was irrelevant until we got things like the Mirage 2000 and later the F-16s. Also the F-14A could one circle the MLD and win if you used manual wing sweep. it just ran out of energy after doing that and was a sitting duck to any other planes nearby. Remember, the F-14's AOA was overperforming for a good year until we got the F-14B and gaijin decided to nerf the F-14s a bit shortly after.

The AIM-54s may not have gotten kills but they were still meta-changing. i have clips of the F-4E vs MiG-23 era and hugging the deck was literally not a thing before AIM-54s. mutts will get a plane that literally redefines the meta and still cope that its somehow irrelevant.

>F-4S
teaches you radar kinematics, missile employment, and BVR combat (reading your RWR, working the radar, longer range defensive techniques, etc.) Its a missile bus tho and dont expect to learn anything about WVR combat
>F-5C
teaches proper dogfighting, energy retention and conservation techniques, how to aim guns, flight performance weaknesses of enemies, and how to be a monster at close range. Dont expect to learn anything outside gun range tho; your IR missiles are subpar, you have no radar or radar missiles.

Generally, if you just want to grind, the F-5C is the way to go because even the dumbest gorilla nignog using his dick on a laptop trackpad can do well in it because its BR is more favorable and the plane in general is one of the most handheld vehicles ingame (fictional flight model, overperforming damage model, almost no heat signature making any missile easily flarable, fictional flares and AIM-9Es it never used, and more)

Which tank girl would Utena molest the most?
>>
>>483677293

MiG-29 was added in the same update as F-16. the MiG-29 was the better dogfighter in most regimes but its missile selection (R-60Ms and R-27R) made it subpar against the US missile spam of AIM-9Ls and AIM-7Ms with superior radars.

a few months later it got R-27ER to make up for the shitty radar. still didnt fix the problem since the meta was IR missiles, since old multipath meant you can dodge a ER as easily as any other radar missile. most F-16 players figured out how to use the airbrake to get around the G limiter by now

a few weeks before Sons of Atilla update, the MiG-29 had its radar fixed and buffed finally.

four months later, the F-16s have their G limiter removed, all MIG-29s get a major flight model nerf, and AIM-9Ms and R-73 are added. F-16C becomes new king of top tier until F-15A and Gripen are added in a few months.

>For how long was NiG29 was the kind of TT ARB?
i'd say a month, between the time the radar got fixed until the flight model nerf. There is a reason during the air supriority esports tournament, almost everyone was running F-16s.

The fact Lesta's departure DRASTICALLY accelerated the game's downfall only made it obvious to just about everyone who's still had any doubts before.

wing sweep and thrust vectoring nozzles on a planes which have them. On top tier it can be useful to bind thrust axis to easily turn on first stage afterburner without going full afterburner. But simply relaxing thrust axis control sensitivity would also work good even without rebinding.

Why not if it's true? They'll also forever lag behind the behemoths of the Yamato/Iowa (or Montana)/Lion (or N3)/Sovetsky Soyuz/H39 (or H40-44) with their puny 12 380 mm peashooters on the Alsace (literally just a Richelieu with an aft turret).

>They'll also forever lag behind the behemoths
yeah that sucks, the obvious solution is to go with papershit but im really not a fan of that hackjob solution. i'd almost prefer the tree just stopping earlier than others
then again, we're a long long ways away from the final battleships, Mutsu sparked a little hope that we might be moving up soon but its been fading fairly rapidly. so not something im worried about in the present
given how they've been ignoring high tiers (other than copy pastas and DOA battlecruisers), i wouldnt be surprised if we actually started moving backwards in time
as for the current meta, i could live with a 1047 (assuming we'll get a dutch line in the naval trees at some point)

You are in a unique position where they could actually be useful, if you have no rank IV tanks, you unlock and purchase only the vehicle you want talismanned, then buy the box, forcing it to go to that tank. Usually it's worthless because it'll go to something that you don't want to play.

IS-2 is gud ?
>>
>>483706083
Unfortunately there's no obvious pick there, if it were me I would put it on the T-34-85 or Jagdpanther, the IS-2 is really not that great, but it is playable if you want to. Panther and BTR-ZD would be good as well.

Also a tier IV talisman is not the most useful thing in the world, it doesn't take all that much to get through IV and V, so I would set yourself up to do this again at tier V or VI
>>
>>483706083
6.3 IS-2 has very big and easy to hit weakspot.
6.7 IS-2 is very strong but then you'd only have a 50/50 chance of talismaning it.
Soviet SPGs suck because no gun depression.
T-34-85 can be good if played right but it feels a little underpowered.
Tiger II P sucks.
Panthers are as overpowered as ever.
M109 is fun but I'd rather play it in a nation that gets matched against Germany not with it.
Jagdpanther/JPz are as good but do you want to spawn a turretless SPG all day?

Yes, your hull is undeadable, turret face is trolly, faster than similar BR mediums (T-34 and Sherman), one shots 80% of what it sees.

They added submarines.
Then they buffed submarines to absurd degrees because historical subs get slaughtered by surface combatants. Subs travel at 20-30 knots SUBMERGED, are immune to sonar outside 2km(normal sonar range is 3-5km), take reduced damage from EVERYTHING, can spot as far as a destroyer at periscope depth while being unspottable outside <5km themselves, can fire torpedoes even faster than magical 60s re-arming DDs, have acoustic homing torpedoes in fucking WWII and are so absolutely broken that if you do chase them down, their damage reduction allows them to ram DDs to death.

Subs completely buttfucked the game and wargoyming refuses to reverse course so they hemorrhaged over half their stable playerbase and are now forced to come up with more and more ridiculous ways to extract what tiny whale wealth remains(battlepass(shit), auctions of rare premiums, auctions of early-acess to new superships).

Yes I am mad, the game was fun if arcadey and now it's just hot garbage.

Shadowplay, Relive, whatever the fuck Intels option is called and every other recording program offering "GPU encoding" use the video encoding/decoding encinge of the GPU. It's a fixed function unit that can do nothing else and is usually used to decode videos you watch to save on power.
That's why using that to encode your recorded video costs none or at the least significantly less FPS than using your actual GPU or CPU to encode the video. If whatever new recording feature steam has costs little to no FPS it does the exact same thing.

Don't notch. Don't even try to notch if you're going up against the phoenix wall. That's how people are getting blown up. You can't notch multiple ARH's launched from multiple angles simultaneously. Bait them into launching that initial fucking volley of Fox-3's then just do a Split-S and go cold while spewing some chaff in their face. You need to survive that opening salvo before you can turn back around and fight the rest of their team.

You only want to notch if you have a high degree of confidence that it's only one guy shooting at you.

Basically just turn around and run the fuck away. Depending on range to missile you can probably even abstain from using the chaff.

There's 2 ways to defeat an ARH missile. The first is to break its lock via some technique like notching, physically obscuring yourself behind terrain, or using chaff. IMO you should think of chaff as degrading the quality of the lock and that it will only break it if conditions were kind of poor in the first place.

The second way to defeat an ARH is to drain its energy. Defeating the energy necessitates that you're not too close to the missile launch. You don't dare attempt to go cold against close range missile launches such as those made within visual range. But for BVR launches, there is time to just turn the fuck around and run away. This fucks with the missile's ability to keep up with you since its motor can only burn for a few seconds while you have many minutes of fuel. Diving to lower altitudes fucks it over more since the thicker air causes more drag. It especially struggles to keep up with turns once it is coasting.

Phoenixes and 120's are similar in that they give america a first shot advantage that other nations can't match. In my experience the best options to deal with it with inferior missiles are to just play on defense until they've blown their load, or try to sneak up on them like a rat via low altitude terrain masking by hiding in canyons or behind mountains. The risk when going cold is that the enemy plane will pursue you and make subsequent attacks from progressively advantaged positions, but we just have to hope that our teammates threaten any that try that. It also helps that 99% of american players aren't actually playing smart and instead are just blowing their loads by leaning hard on their range advantage to shoot first and collect free kills.

I just think that it is a poor plan to try to notch the first volley of ARHs whether they're phoenixes or 120's. There's just too many missiles in the air, and your window to notch is too narrow to notch multiple missiles from multiple angles simultaneously. Especially since most planes facing off against phoenixes lack quality RWRs.

The phoenix can't pull very hard, so you can dodge them with last minute evasive maneuvers. However that drains speed and you can enter a situation where the act of dodging the first phoenix slows you down enough that the second or third can hit you.

Going cold or diving behind some prominent terrain feature is the only option that will reliably let you defeat a whole fucking cloud of ARH's flying at you from slightly different angles from approximately the same direction. That or successfully multipathing, which is a lot harder to do these days.

Yes, that's a problem. Phoenixes aren't that hard to defeat. The americans are right in that they're not that good at killing fighters that take proper defensive action against them. The problem is that there are a lot of drooling retards that just fly face first into them. Then the they surviving teammates are disadvantaged since they're outnumbered.

That said, what else do you expect anon to do? Run head first into the phoenixes and die too?
>>
>>483732394
Anther thing people don't seem to take into account is the INS, and so get caught out not changing their altitude while notching and so still end up flying into missile then wondering how it still hit them.

Is it? I haven't touched 11.0+ air unless there's a jet I want, since I still prefer ground, I fucking hate USA after how shitty the teams are and granted the sales are on meaning I will have to fly the J35XS, but from what ever since the multipath nerf I can't just hug the ground to beat F-14's and F-16's anymore no?, and I've never been a big fan of missile jousting.

>but from what ever since the multipath nerf I can't just hug the ground to beat F-14's and F-16's anymore no?
Multipathing is still POSSIBLE but it is no longer trivial. Between the reduction in multipathing height and the fact that many trees are still mega-trees, the margin for error between evading the missile via multipathing and colliding into trees is thin enough that it is often impractical to multipath if there is any variation in the terrain level caused by rolling hills.

If there are big enough terrain features then you can try to sneak up on the F-14's by hiding behind mountain ranges or within canyons.

Single player game, not a direct competitor like DCS is. And you're just assuming they didn't pay.

Because that's not actually what happens in WT, you move your mouse left and the instructor rolls, pitches, and corrects yaw all seamlessly (mostly) that's the system that is patented, and it's the reason mouse aim actually works.

They hold a patent for THEIR mouse aim system. DCS can implement their own (better) solution.
And if Gaijin accuses them of copying they'd have to open up their code to prove it in court.

It's also an American patent which is totally meaningless to Gaijin's Russian competitors. They made this patent probably to prevent MicroProse from re-entering the space, because MicroProse could blow War Thunder, Il-2, and DCS out of the water if they chose to, Falcon 4.0 with the BMS mod is still the best modern sim you can get and they released it in 1998.

>(better) solution.
And that's the sticking point, a better solution doesn't exist, others have tried their own mouse aim systems and it's always trash. If you've got an idea I'd recommend you patent it quickly because it'll be worth plenty of money to some dev somewhere, but until then Gaijin owns the simcade world.

To add to the discussion, patents need a degree of specificity to them. You can't patent general ideas such as a 'plane', 'joystick', or 'mouse aiming'. It can't be simply 'I point my mouse and the planes rolls, pitchs and yaws in that order towards the cursor'.

What Gaijin holds is a patent on their code (which is only one way to program the airplane to roll, pitch and yaw towards the cursor), but, as it happens for software, there are many ways of achieving the same results with different algorithms.

To pinpoint on this, many games that had their source code released had to had proprietary libraries and algorithms removed because.. well, those libraries weren't open sourced. The solution was simply releasing the source code on the game with alternative algorithms. For instance, the sound system and stencil shadow volumes were patented on Doom 3, John Carmack simply coded an alternative solution (which iirc was better than the original).

If you took that to court you'd need to show that the competitor used your system, thus infringing on your patent. This isn't so trivial as the court would get access to both codes to compare them, besides all the money on lawyers, you risk leaking your code, you can even lose your patent if it's found to be too 'bland'.

My take on it is that Gaijin's code isn't so trivial as just a control system, it's prolly lenghty code and quite ingrained with the whole flight physics system, which I'm guessing you also get access to if you decide to use their system. Besides, it has years upon years of fixes for weird glitches and the likes. If you want a quick solution, it's the path to take, I suppose.

We already knew this though, it's the instructor and its flying your plane for you using a joystick you can't see. That's why it's not as simple as "make plane go to mouse pointer" and why nobody else has done the same thing.

Aimo Allan Koivunen (17 October 1917 – 12 August 1989) was a Finnish soldier in World War II and the first documented case of a soldier overdosing on methamphetamine during combat.
>Koivunen had trouble pulling out a single pill, so he emptied the entire bottle of thirty capsules into his hand and took them all.
>He had a short burst of energy, but then entered into a state of delirium, and lost consciousness. Koivunen remembered waking up the following morning, separated from his patrol and having no supplies. In the following days, he escaped Soviet forces once again, was injured by a land mine, and laid in a ditch for a week waiting for help.After skiing more than 400 km (250 miles) he was found and admitted to a nearby hospital, where his heart rate was measured at 200 beats per minute, triple the average human heartbeat,and weighing only 43 kg. In the week Koivunen was gone, he subsisted only on pine buds and a single Siberian jay that he caught and ate raw.
>He spent time in a Foreign Legion training camp in the town of Sidi Bel Abbès.[8] From there he was transferred to Fez and fought in several battles against the Berber rebels in the Atlas Mountains.[8] Because of his service in Morocco, he was called "Moroccan Horror" by Finnish troops
>Juutilainen wanted to encourage his men to keep fighting and to be brave by being an example. so he carried a rocking chair into the frontlines and led the fight from it while grenades were exploding all over. later on he admitted that he was scared as hell but that "someone had to be an example to my [poor] sinners".
>He served as the division's commandant for a year. After that, before returning to the field army, Juutilainen served from May 1944 as commander of the 31st Prisoner of War Company. The transfer to that unit was due to "continued drunkenness and the beating of a man under his command in April 1944",

That's... not quite what I wrote though. The patent describes quite lengthy diagrams for a specific flow of control. You can't do the same, but you could just program it differently, if you felt like using the resources for it. Just like it happens with real Fly-By-Wire systems. We have plenty of those, each calculating controls differently but still ultimately controlling the aircraft.
But alas it's just easier to license from them rather than deal with all the hassle from all the bugs that'll come out. Especially if you can't afford years of ironing out your own code or just want to make a quick buck.

I don't see much of a case for Gaijin desu, unless it's exactly their code. Solutions for controlling aircraft digitally include real fly-by-wire and other games using both AI controlled inputs and cursor movement. I'm quite certain those would be brought up, as well as showing that the 'roll, pitch, yaw' order are not something Gaijin invented, but rather the way airplanes naturally fly. They can't patent coordinated fly, they can't patent input order, etc.

tl;dr planes are niche and companies don't care.
