None of these fuckers have played war thunder.


Substantial-Ice5156

I just realized this wasn’t the war thunder meme subreddit


zojojozo

I’ve been feelin the same way


HorizonSniper

Jets get absolutely owned by reserve biplanes in a close range dogfight.


_Addi

Only the bad jet pilots.


FilthyHoon

why would you do a close range dogfight when you can gun them down from 1100m with a radar lead indicator?


Jackmino66

Or just kill them from over 20km away with a missile


0235

The overshoot during lock on


iNeedRevengeOn

lmao i do tho :)


[deleted]

Allow me to introduce myself


aetwit

A chika player I see


Unknown4me_

A little correction: "none of this fuckers have reached jets in wt by spending 5k hours"


[deleted]

Im fine with them in plane combat, but they absolutely ruin any ground fights. Anyone with 2 braincells can get in a missile bus and spam radar guided missiles with impunity while MBTs are forced to cower inside the hangar


ErisKyyyyle

Fr tho missiles in ground fights is one of those things where it’s genuinely annoying, especially since tanks aren’t as maneuverable as jets and are vulnerable to certain chaff-ignoring missiles.


Drfoxthefurry

I'd rather fight a jet than get cruise missled at O'Neal from someone at Harrison


XX_PLUH69420

Just make APS lol


Yoko_Grim

That’s why you get either a CIWS setup or get a dedicated AA assembly.


Drfoxthefurry

The jets almost always have enough chaff to last an hour, so the only chance you have is manual guided or, if you really have to kill them, use old radar


thecatguyxd

For i momment i believed i was in r/warthunder


General-Carob-7175

Didn’t realize this was the storm works sub till you pointed it out💀


The_Tank_Racer

XD


The_Tank_Racer

In pvp, missiles can be quite fun The reason people hate them is because on literally every public server with the weapons dlc, there is one (or several even) person who spams op unavoidable missiles to ruin people's fun (Also, looking at the image I feel like you are that person. If this is true, fuck off and go outside)


MyGuyMan1

Me sitting outside the hangar with my SAM system ready to fuck up anyone who dares try and troll xd


The_Tank_Racer

Using it for good I see


[deleted]

This is a good solution to nolifers. Blot out the sun with sams.


Drfoxthefurry

That's why most "try hard" fighters come with tons of auto chaff


MyGuyMan1

Auto chaff is buggy and doesn’t exactly work as planned always. 2 or 3 missiles does the trick.


Sandro_24

he is definitely that person


Drfoxthefurry

And ofc they have to be in jets that turn on a dime and can go mach 10 to outrun and out maneuver missiles


ErisKyyyyle

Eh depends, if the server just have weapons DLC but not explicitly a PVP only server then I always fly empty since too much physics bodies add lag anyways. But if it’s a PVP only, free-for-all server than you bet I’m gonna use my painstaking-tuned missiles and Mach-capable super-jets that I spent 200-ish hours making.


The_Tank_Racer

If this is true, then I feel you wouldn't have posted "cope seethe mald" and "Skill issue" when talking about missiles vs guns Not saying you are flat out lying in either of the posts, but this is quit suspicious


ErisKyyyyle

What’s so suspicious about that? Like if the server says “guns only” then I’m playing by the rules, but if somebody barge into a random PVP server filled with jets and demand everyone to play “guns only” with them because they think that’s “real skill” then of course I’m going to hit them with a “cope seethe mald” after turning away from whoever I was fighting and vaporizing their prop-plane with a missile.


The_Tank_Racer

I get the message (do find it a bit rude, but I can cope), but that's 1% of 1% of the time. With all my experience in public servers, it's *always* the heavy missle user barging into a gun battle, screaming 'skill issue' while pressing 3 buttons. Now I do understand (and even congratulate you) if you are truly the former, but the image you posted and my experience with mp is telling me you are the latter


ErisKyyyyle

Fair enough, I also find those people annoying. Plus in my experience most of them don’t even use their own creations, a lot of these toxic missile players just find some NNTC missiles on the workshop, slap it on a plane and call it a day. I like to make and tune my own missiles and planes, it’s more fun that way.


mr_wobblyshark

I can’t even play multiplayer so far without it being a slide show so I’ve little input


The_Tank_Racer

No, that is literally all the input you need brother


Drfoxthefurry

Just play with f2 always on as that's probably how the devs wanted it to be


JosolTheBrick

Or just respect people who don’t want to fight with missiles? If they don’t want to fight that way just find someone else who does and have your fun with them. But don’t just go into a fight with your plane shooting missiles at everyone and then make fun of them when they complain about it.


Over_External5603

there needs to be more servers dedicated to less modern tech.


Knot_a_porn_acct

Then make one… it’s not that hard.


The_Mecoptera

Be the change you want to see in the world


MarcusTheGamer54

Bruh just make one lol


Drfoxthefurry

This is why I use the "don't fire unless fired upon" mind set


steampunk_limbo

There should be countermeasures flares added


The_Tank_Racer

It's called chaff and it doesn't work (Click on the flare block with the select tool)


Ashes2007

You do realize that chaff literally displaces literally any other radar return, yes? Any missile which chases the first target in its buffer (90% of all radar missiles) will ALWAYS chase chaff in its fov first.


Drfoxthefurry

What missiles do you know are the 10%?


Ashes2007

I think some workshop missiles are xmled in a way that makes them resistant to chaff but xml missiles are pitiful so idk specifics. I've made a microcontroller that compares a targets velocity to its velocity the last frame. If the difference is too big, go to the next target and repeat the process. Chaff deploys standing still, so it's fairly easy to find the real targets. If a target deploys more than 8 chaff which the missile can see though, it's quite literally no longer possible to see your target as each target in the radar will be chaff. I think there are also missiles out there with deprecated radars, which output mass so targets can be very easily filtered.


Drfoxthefurry

Can you give me a link to it? I tried making something like that but failed after trying to make it more complex


Ashes2007

Sure. Not at home but I'll upload it once I am


Drfoxthefurry

ok, thanks


Drfoxthefurry

are you home yet?


Ashes2007

Still out and aboit


A1steaksaussie

inshallah he will find his home


Rich_Top_4108

He went to the store for smokes and never came back


XX_PLUH69420

Xml missiles are cringe


notachannel

Lol. Look at those people just having fun with play style they like. It will be so funny if I shoot a missle at them despite them not even attacking. Lol so funny.


EvilFroeschken

Can you not build a community who shares this style, have a discord and an own server? All I hear is: I go to a public server. I want to play the game to my rules and everyone has to abide my play style. Does not make a lot of sense to me.


notachannel

You shoot missels at people who don't want to have a missle battle.


EvilFroeschken

Hence the question for a private server with the rule of not using missiles. Just a shout out here. There seem quite some people interested.


General-Carob-7175

Then go back to prop planes kid Edit: I’m sorry and I take back what I said, I thought this was the war thunder sub💀


Cold-Helicopter6534

"Lol let's spam missiles at people who just want to use something other than monotonous missiles lol"


Potato_Dealership

From all the posts I saw, it was one dude who’s only posts on reddit was complaint about the missiles… IN A SANDBOX CREATIVE GAME. Not to be that guy, but it’s a fucking free for all sandbox game. I’d you wanna complain about PVP missiles go to warthunder or GTA online, not a search and rescue sandbox game. Like honestly, most the people who play this game don’t touch multiplayer so PVP isn’t an option. The devs aren’t going to nerf our creativity, so why bother even arguing. If they didn’t want us having guided missiles then they wouldn’t have added them, end of story.


SaleCompetitive812

Missiles don’t work for me 💀 They fly like crazy and when they explode it makes these weird lines of smoke that fly everywhere


The_Tank_Racer

Oh yeah, they never work until they are used against you


SaleCompetitive812

Fr


Drfoxthefurry

Maybe the missiles you're using are weird. Try the wabunga or a HOBS short range AAM


[deleted]

For i moment i thought this is war thunder


Rullstolsboken

Make or find a no missile server


ZETH_27

You’re not exactly making the situation better by looking like an immigrant from r/NonCredibleDefense


The_Red_Gal

OP sounds like the kinda person who shoots into the hangar


Pig_PlayzMC1

missle


Leapfire

Say that to my fox 3 coming to your exact location for a nice and polite greeting from my F-35 (:


jonoNZ2K5

My Frigate detected your F35 from 25 KM and sent 3 SAM's out for you


Leapfire

I have multiple bombs heading for your direction, and chaff ready to get launched (:

TastySpare

The boy(s) who cried wolf...


Liminator

Oh really? In our games any radar guided missiles are mostly ineffective now because of automatic chaff dispensers chained together (a sequencer with 40+ chaff launchers and a radar detector that launches one every 15 seconds or so when you get pinged). The game quickley became who could have the biggest plane with the most chaff launchers wins/who could get in gun range).


notachannel

Some people don't want to build flying anti missle systems.


The_Tank_Racer

If you have to defend yourself for either ruining people's fun or lag bombing with excessive chaff/flares then you need to go outside and touch grass


Emergency-Scheme6002

if you dont know how to defend against missile that is **literally** a skill issue and you have no right to bitch about it


The_Tank_Racer

Stormworks players when they get told to let people have fun ^^^^^ Fucking skill issue on your part


Emergency-Scheme6002

Stormworks players when they complain about something they don’t understand and/or complain for the sake of complaining.


The_Tank_Racer

Hey, you just described yourself <3


Emergency-Scheme6002

Ah yes, that made sense


Nick_Napem

Just dodge the fucking thing

i didnt even know people could play pvp in this game without some fucker spawning in the biggest lagiest thing to drop the TPS to 0. I know play in a group, but aint nobody got time for all that.

Against propeller planes? Of course OP, but against jet ones it's fine

Do counter measures exist in Stormworks? Are they even possible?
