Ah, well in that case I agree. That 3m is a massive differency.
Except theres two (2) of them
Dunno, I dont consider myself as very seasoned pilot either but never had issues against tanks with meteor.
Sure, il grant that I dont hit every time but due to speed of meteor the resupplying doesnt take all that long.
Thus, I doubt the bomb placement on planes makes a massive differency when bombing tanks.
Especiatly with bombs this big.
LOL!!! GOOD ONE!!
Do you see 262 being an attacker? Yet it has 500kg bomb with 4, i repeat FOUR mark 108s with HE rounds for CAS. It is the absolute best plane for CAS now in br5 yet it’s a fighter plane.
I don’t expect you to realize your own bias though. It’s seriously affecting your critical thinking skills though
“METEOR IS TOO STRONG, IT OUTMANEUVERS PROPS”
alright we’ll nerf the bombload
King tigers (which is the most common tank you see in br5) would eat the 1k bombs from 5 meters out all day. You still had to be extremely accurate with it. I also love how you just completely ignore the ease of use with 262 108s and much stronger bomb. What happened to needing some skill? Lol german mains are equivalent to the whaling liberals.
Everyone thought nerfing the turn rate was fair from the start.
Welp. At least now the “fighter” tag is appropriate.
I would have prefered it to be made attacker though with less maneuverability.
Jabo is literally an attacker variant. Su-9 is pretty much the same thing. Should be changed
Kikka is also an attacker (anti ship)
where did I mention the 262? remove bombs from all fighter jets from all factions, I’ll put my money where my mouth is
ATTENTION TO ALL ALLIES’ PLAYERS
Camp the german air spawn with your meteor to make them regret taking our CAS abilities away. They want it to be a “fighter”, Let’s give them what they asked for.
USA still has HVAR rocket spamming planes? you act like the allies didn’t have any CAS power before they added the meteor. I don’t expect you to realize your own bias though. It’s seriously affecting your critical thinking skills though
go play low br if you want to subscribe to this logic buddy.
because please explain to me why a fighter has 2 less hvars than attacker p-47 if this is such a problem.
Really if it was up to me, I’d rebalance fighter planes to have little or no suspended payloads. In an ideal world, I think aircrafts should by fighter pilots should ONLY be used to secure air superiority and not as an option whenever somebody takes the attacker pilot slot in your team
see right it’s not a problem with it’s on the japs.
Really, it’s not up to you and fighter planes in BRV are clearly supposed to be strong if not better than the attacker because of maneuverability and were until this crusade
you can have your own ideas… to me that would just mean now on top of the idiot in the plane let’s say in beaufighter when there are two tigers assaulting us i now can’t spawn in the other option to kill him.
fighter pilot class should be strictly dogfighting and attacker pilot class should be strictly CAS, i dont know why thats such a radical take that offends you. If that would make vehicles shitty and less appealing to use across the board, then good, the less vehicle spam at BR5 the better the game is
Because that same logic doesn’t apply from low br to high… rifleman squads are usually semi autos and bolt actions but in high br they are fully auto battle rifles.
Funny… the meteor is the only thing that made german tank spam bearable which everybody seemed to have so much of a problem with when they were whining for super pershing
we have completely opposite opinions clearly i disagree wholeheartedly with this
i’m assuming you also don’t think rifleman squads of full auto prototype rifles are cool… then as with this suggestion id welcome you to play like BR1 where all the fighters have no ordnance if this is really such an issue to you
I’d play BR1 if it wasn’t the baby player zone where nobody has engineers unlocked.
How clever of you to complain about the Me 262’s fixed armament
The blast radius on the 1000 pounder is only slightly less (14m vs 14.5m) than the SC-500K
There’s is absolutely and utterly no excuse for the Meteor to carry 2x1000lb bombs. Singular would be fine but 2? Abysmally overpowered to a point I cannot even believe that it got a green light
You mean the ‘absolutely dogshit velocity’ cannons? Yeah good anti infantry capabilities if you manage to hit. Not to mention that they suck complete ass in air to air. Furthermore the 2x1000lb bomb has better damage than the 500kg AND the Jabos entire cannon belt combined even if it shot only HEI-T/HEI
Not to mention Jabo cannons complete inability to do anything against armored targets because it lacks APHE shells
Also the much stronger bomb in question has 10% larger radius, 20% less fragmentation and 1.5% more damage… For total of … 1.1*0.8.1.015 = 0.8932 power. So much better!
And the anti armoured capabilities are funny because Jabos bomb has ~9% larger radius but since Meteor gets 2 of them you have 47% weaker anti tank capabilities
So in the end Jabo has weaker anti infantry capabilities, weaker anti armored capabilities, has worse flying characteristics BUT! It’s slightly faster (which just means it loses 1 circle flow because the maps are too small to gain any meaningful distance and flying upright is out of the question because Meteor has better speed retention and climb rate on top of turnrate that outclasses even prop planes). Also let’s not forget that Meteor has 20 mm cannons and lots of spare ammo
Putting ‘Meteor’ and ‘Weak’ in one sentence is crazy. Saying that this thing didn’t outclass every single plane in the game by a large margin is insane. Now that it has 500lb bombs it means that it’s not the best in anti tank capabilities and it’s anti infantry capabilities get a hit - and honestly it’s still not enough imo since it turns better than prop planes that get none of the power that Meteor has
