  1. TL;DR : SPO-15 "Beryoza" With the russian rwr system you lose all SA of potential threats, which is horrible to begin with. You only see a single threat at all times which direction and signal strength. When you are locked you lose all other potential threats, this makes you vulnerable to be ambushed from a different direction and even spoofed by pressing tactics. You never know if the missile behind you is same one that made you go defensive in the first place. Having flown the SU27 extensively, I find the system in the Mirage much more capable in keeping me alive.
  2. Yeah because in terms of BVR blufor always dominated with better weapons and SA. Redfor always craved datalink just to be on some equal footing with blufor, when it comes to air engagements, but we were never given datalink. It seems that datalink works in MP without any problem, as shown in by the 104th and the recent mistake made by the buddyspike team, and we still are not getting it. Why not is beyond me ... there is no good reason not to test it out how BF would behave with datalink. I used to fly the SU27 only. Now, because I learned to fly the M2KC I only fly that machine because it is superior. The only downside to it is the limited load it can carry. It plays like a sniper. You can engage long range and you missiles are deadly AF. Where as in the SU27 you get killed so much easier, due to loss of SA when you are engaged and by the fact that your missiles are as effective as spitting against the wind. This is a typical mindset of most players, "why mirage?" "cus it works!"
  3. Above and beyond ... you do not understand what that means. Datalink is not an "I can win"-button. It gives a plane with poor performance, poor structural integrity (lol @ vert stabs), poor missiles, and poor situational awareness a small benefit. Just reducing the numbers of Mirages will not fix the problems that the SU27 had even before the Mirage was even a thing. Why don't you guys get it? Datalink was always an issue, in an 80's setting the SU27 should have Datalink, period. It is always this way: "Don't buff the SU27 because mimimimimi blufor" seen this pattern since round 5. Even when there was no weapon restrictions the flanker did not have datalink. Why not turn it on and leave it on for a week, is that too much to ask? This is still the testing phase. So let's test it!
  4. Bring back Datalink! Why was it disabled again? The SU27 needs it to be competitive against the Mirage-Ball that blueflag currently is. I just did some testing with EWRs on blue and red with the EWR 1L13 unit. I would be totally okay if the blueside gets the AI-GCI calls due to this unit, as long as the SU27 keeps the datalink. If no datalink for the SU27, at least let it have R27ER, or R27ET if the ER is too. Remember only 2 ETs per SU27.
  5. Um, there are no airfield defenses ? I just took a spin over Sochi and nothing was attacking me.
  6. I was there, I know. But that was during the testing phase, now its 'serious' u know. Would be hard to get anyone who isn't busy trying to keep the blue steam roller in check ;P
  7. You are trying to undermine RedFor's defensive efforts by keeping away all of its fighting force. I see through your tactics :o No seriously, how we gonna do this while everyone is foaming in their pits trying to gain the upper hand? ^^ Call a truce? :D
  8. Says the guy evading 14 missiles by wiggling around :megalol::doh: Jester you are the gift that keeps on giving :lol:
  9. Blue seems to be available during the entire 24hrs. Of course it is not the registered ones. BUT put an end to people joining blue while red is heavily outnumbered. People join, they see the number difference, and type blue. "Fight back with what you have." 4:1 odds are ridiculous. At some point there is no use to fight back and if you have nothing theres nothing you can fight back with. Red has been outnumbered from the get go. The round started with 18 vs 36.
  10. Yes it is easy. Stop Blue from accepting any further players. I am getting sick of this stacking. *joins* *sees numbers* *types blue anyways*
  11. When will there be SOME FORM of balancing.
  12. Basically everyone in SimpleRadio :)
  13. Yes we did because they are our bases to begin with. The CAPTURED bases get only Mig21 ... like you get only F5s if you capture Nalchik or Vody or Maykop. Before BluFor got 2xM2k's for every captured airfield, while RedFor only got 2xMig21's.
  14. I wonder if there any ArmA players in here ... I am used to navigate by compass and map without any way to verify your location like a "you are here" marker that the F10 map provides. And I love it.
  15. Has nothing to do with being harsher. Its getting people out of their comfort zone and making them learn something and also deepening the experience in general. If you can't be bothered with simple navigation in a plane that does it basically for you ... well
  16. buy me a Mi8 or Gazelle and I will :D
  17. I think you are overthinking this. You are making it sound like as if every flight plan must have a sophistication like one IRL. I disagree. I don't even think that most people would need a flight plan at all. Only ones that would are Ka50 and A10C pilots. And their nav systems are good enough that it is rather easy to plan anything and the nature of the craft basically forces you to anyways to some degree.
  18. Yeah man tell me about it, but nobody is joining red it seems. Only a handful. At least that is what is feels like to everyone on red I think. In the last days people were talking a lot about which aircraft should be on which side and so on. I will try to make a formal suggestion to be tested at some point in the future. Which will hopefully be deemed fair by most people ^^
  19. Wasn't there T_T has to study for exams ._. Yes we had that a couple of times, because everyone will just go CAP in order to hold off the attack. Problem is, people are coming in and out like the wind and it really hard to get anything pre planned. We dont have a dedicated squad of 5+ people on red. Just a collection of lonewolfs and two ships. :P
  20. We cant even have 5xSu27 in the air with our numbers. Not to mention strikers or helis. A handful of people wont really change the 4:1 steamrolling.
  21. Maybe play 104th then? It's pretty laid back and casual over there and you don't have to worry about being a tryhard or needing comms. lol. :doh: +infinity.
  22. THIS. Some people really need to get this in their heads. Without proper communication you cannot have effective teamwork, PERIOD. This shouting match with 10+ people in a single TS channel gets annoying rather quickly. We have seen what happens when we try to impose order on the TS, it falls apart quicker than a house of cards during a hurricane. SR gives the opportunity to do this with MUCH LESS effort. People who are stating they outright refuse to use SR at all (because of reasons) baffle me they seriously do. You are not teamplayers at all.
  23. Train as you fight, fight as you train.
  24. ^ THIS SO MUCH. THIS. How can I give an award for that post? If any team wants to be effective, you better have comms down. I don't have it yet, but I see the potential and the benefit from this. That's why I use SR with my flight instead of TS. You cannot communicate effectively with your flight if you are in the same TS channel with 20 other people. Whisper groups and different channels help, but no one is ****ing doing it. Everytime we tried to enforce it after BD_Tibet brought it up in round 5 it failed miserably. Not because it is flawed, because people do not care. Basically it used to be at nighttime structured comms and during daytime a comms-blob. Because at night we had a very dedicated small group who was behind this concept and it worked.
  25. Exactly. There are freqs that not every plane can tune into, but you have THREE independent awesome radios. Use them. I for one will not partake in the all in one TS channel BS anymore. I think we should make a brevity guide and stuff like that. And if someone doesn't go by it we be like Stewie
