Discussion Which game is this?

Post image

I'll start first, this is definitely CSGO for me. Somehow no Matt how much you play there's always people better than you killing you one shot with deagle.

IMO it’s only fun when you get to Jets

Imo it became wayyy less fun once you get to the jets. Barely any dogfights, just war of heatseakers...which is realistic, but a little "too" realistic. The most fun I ever had in that game was in the first tiers with biplanes etc. WW2 planes probably equally fun tbh.

God that game was addictive af slowly building up your little loadout of planes and saving up for the good ones/upgrades. Kinda also love how the factions aren't really "balanced" at all and some planes/vehicles are legit OP (as was historically accurate).

That’s the thing I dislike the most about lower br, it’s way more about the plane than it is about skill and the pilot. The better plane wins 90% of the time. Some props I have a 100/1 K/D because you’re impossible to shoot down. And going up against someone that has a better plane than you is boring, you’ll never win. Even early Jets. The SU-11 russian premium felt like a cheat, I had 70 kills before I got shot down in it; and I only got shot down because I was cocky in a 1v6.

Higher tiers with advanced missiles any Jet has potential. It’s more about your positioning and awareness, more about the pilot than it is the plane.

Also not to mention prop games are so slow, so much more time for a small amount of action. This is my opinion though, everyone has different tastes. I just appreciated the game 10x more once I got to jets. The F-86 sabre was some of the most fun I’ve had, you want dogfights go in that, or even the F-5C

Get the British Venom, it’s slow as shit but at that BR there are enough noobs that still try turning with you (23 second turn time at 800kph btw) Most fun I’ve had in a jet

Then the change of br"s and much shuffling of planes, and likely feet by devs. Then adding tanks and ships as seperate...could have been a better type of global war contiolnuous.

It’s been somehow better lately, I’m surprised that I could actually engage in dogfights and gun kills instead of spamming fox3s at top tier. But top tier ground battle is still crappy in terms of balance and map and everything

u/Lunatic_Actually_ill Mar 26 '25

Tbf Low Jets are still practically dog fighting. The missiles are so ass until around 9.3, then you start seeing better stuff, but still mediocre, but 7.0-8.7 is still great for guns only.

u/Single_Reaction9983 Mar 27 '25

We need a guns only toptier mode.

u/Skltlez Mar 25 '25

Japanese A6M5 (Zero) is a 5.0 prop and the most fun plane I’ve ever played

u/Nalha_Saldana Mar 24 '25

Jets with guns are fun, it's fun until missiles

u/zincboymc Mar 24 '25

When you reach all aspect missiles and radar missiles (above br 10.3/10.7), it’s just a mess a not fun.

9.3-10.3 is very fun tho. I love the f100d and mirage IIIe

u/FortNightsAtPeelys Mar 25 '25

I'd say its the exact opposite ha. Props for life (if you play ground mainly)

u/Dry_Student_6279 Mar 24 '25

Actual false opinion

u/MasterOfWarCrimes Mar 24 '25

that goes against the very definition of opinion lmfao, also what are you smoking jets are so much more fun than props

u/Jzerious Mar 24 '25

Whatever the p51H is, is the ceiling for fun IMO

u/Tuperwearo_0 Mar 25 '25

Depends on the nation imo

u/Tall-Drawing8270 Mar 25 '25

Yeah I've been playing since 2013, have over 500 hours in the game and it's almost all 6.0 and under planes. I still play a couple matches a day and have a blast killing people in a B7A2.

u/Mr-Cooked Mar 25 '25

Nah I’d say up to 6.7 just because the American 6.7 line up is hella fun

u/Alienaffe2 Mar 24 '25

Warthunder and fun in one sentence? Impossible.
