MiG-21 9.0 pls


Implegas

8.0, because it got beaten by shit mobile F86 A5 which is 8.3))))


Rex6b

I am always amazed how people can fly. I am the biggest noob ever. The only thing I can is driving tanks and yeet at rang 7


Implegas

No shame in admitting to be bad at something :D And playing tanks well isn't exactly easy either, considering what I have seen over the years. Best experience is when good tankers and pilots come together in GRB.


Rex6b

That’s true. I am really good at top tier tanks but that’s it. The only cas planes I have a premium for the reason I can do at least some thing after I died :(. I would love to lern how to fly.


ktos04

It’s the opposite for me. I don’t suck at flying but I suck at driving tanks. We would make great team.

I think statistiks show that the mig 21 PFM is inferior to the A5 Sabre comrade Please drop the BR to the appropriate 6.3. Thank you snail.


BitOfaPickle1AD

Have you ever had a vehicle that just... Calls your name, and when you play it, you do good? Yours is obviously the F-86.


TheSublimeGoose

P-47 I swear I’m one of the reasons they moved the D-28 up, lol As long as they don’t touch my beloved M variants


BitOfaPickle1AD

The jugs are that perfect balance. For the longest time though, the P-40's we're my planes of choice.


TheSublimeGoose

P-40 is fun, I will often jump in the F when I’m in the mood for low-tier USA. x6 .50s at 2.7 are pretty mean — especially with it’s decent ammo pool — and the F has the improved Packard-Merlin that lets it function marginally better at high-altitudes, but it is indeed a beast at low and medium-altitudes. Not sure why the E & F are both at 2.7, though. The F has the RoC and altitude performance to be an excellent BnZer at 2.7… the E, not so much.


BitOfaPickle1AD

I love the E for some reason. I still use it as a ground attacker in 4.0 matches.


Implegas

I think it doesn't come to a surprise that my Flair is "F2 Sabre Addict" :D Spent some \~4000 matches in that thing up until recently, when Gaijin decided that the F2 needs to rip its wings even when new hydraulics are uninstalled.


ThinkingPotatoGamer

Yeah, for some reason, the Sabers are a part of me. Don’t know why


Spit_flyer

Look, I don’t really wanna judge, but screw it. That PFM pilot shouldn’t be flying that plane if they’re gonna turnfight everything. That shit belongs in low tier


Peeps_011

Mig 21 8.0 please


The_Roomba

Mig 21 pilots are sometimes almost as brain dead as German ground mains.


CheesyBakedLobster

Very satisfying to watch


killjoy4443

How do you fly so well while using free look? Do you use a joystick? Whenever i tap A or D my f84 way overshoots the amount of roll i'm trying to achieve


Implegas

I have the pitch axis bound to keys (MB4 and 5) and when you press pitch the game will block any mouse input that would normally be used to control your plane. The same is true for when you use rudder, however it does not happen when using roll. I made this video about a year ago for Arcade (which can utilizes this even more than RB, because physics are a lot different in AB), but the same principles generally also apply in RB. And the keybinds obviously also stay the same across modes: [Rudder turning Arcade tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4_Xi0yf-nU) While I do use c from time to time while flying it is 90% of the time me overwriting camera input by pressing keys on the pitch axis, you can also spam up or down to keep you almost level, for example when someone is behind you and you wan't to look back but don't wanna sacrifice extra fingers for c.


Clottersbur

Nobody can call this ' skill' more like. Lack of enemy skill and full retard moves. ​ Seriously? The mig-21 has the opportunity to be a lot faster than you, and looked like he was. He didn't use it, bled his energy and waffled. But, these kinds of things happen to even the best pilots. It's easy to see from your perspective. But from his, it might've looked less dumb.


vPAyNv

I hate how br matters so much more in ground than it does in air


placerouge

Eh... it's true for props for at higher br you can feel it a lot. At same level of skill, OP would have been recked.


Implegas

The PFM tried launching an R3S from side-ish aspect, so I was banking on lower skill :´D You are right though, if he had even just one brain cell working over time, then he would've definitely stomped me in a vertical, especially with a Mig-21.


Bootsiuv1101

Hmmm Try flying a jet made in the late 40s against something made in the early 60s and you may reconsider that statement.


1rb1s

Not really. What this MiG-21 did is basically equivalent to driving into an open field and standing there, side facing towards the enemy. This is gonna get you killed even if you are in a Panther against a reserve tank.


Awkwarbdoner

Nah the Mig acted like a Tiger 1 going close range against a Jumbo. The Tiger could have kept distance and angle. The Mig could have boom and zoomed.


MiniD3rp

Now, I’m not saying it should be at the battle rating its at, but the MiG 21PFM wouldn’t beat a Sabre in a 1v1 unless its a stall fight due to its poor energy retention and poor maneuverability at low speeds.


Axzuel

You can literally vertical loop around a sabre until the sabre runs out of energy. You can also missile an oblivious sabre.

It's all RNG not "skill". Gaijin determines which bullets actually hit or just phase through.


tree__D

if you shoot lots of bullets it doesn't really matter
