this is such a stupid decision by Gaijin, their reasoning is totally braindead. the flakpanzer 341 was also given it’s better cannons and rounds and they had to bump it up a lot in br. so why not the arado 234?
Most players don’t have the Coelian and will never be able to acquire it, that’s the difference
I’m not saying it’s valid to sell those, I’m saying it’s valid to criticize them. My bad
Oh, aight
Fair
many premiums are copy-paste of TT (or vice versa) - Plaigis Spitfire and M-10 Achilles (17 pdr) come immediately to mind without checking the game for more
1000% agreed. This is disappointing. Gaijin, if you are not aware, both the Waffenbehälter 81 & 151 are already available in your game FOR FREE on the Ju 87 D & Me 410 A/B (Images below). Despite this, you now arrogantly expect people to hand over $49.99 to equip the same weapon system on the Ar 234 B? This is a scam. The WB 151 should have been a free modification from the outset of this game’s release. Will you now start charging actual money for bombs, repairs, extinguishers, barrels, RATO, & APCR next?


I thought that the errored Tiger Pack, which is still not fixed was bad enough, but this is an entirely new level of grift/scam
It was a waste of time…Anything with a Schloßlafette 1000/500 or ETC 500 could potentially be fitted with a Waffenbehälter so one would never expect that gaijin would have the nerve to start paywalling these pods, especially since they are freely available on the Ju 87 & Me 410. I regret helping out with this as they corrupted the suggestion into a pay to use, premium/gold weapon:
You will have to pay $49.99 & wait for another new separate variant called the Ar 234 B-2 (RATO) or Ar 234 B-2 (Hs 293)
Only because of GAIJIN’S artificial nerfing. On the old forum, how many times did I mention/report the rear periscope sight & the missing rear weapon rüstsätze for both the Ar 234 B & C? Perhaps gaijin requires an additional $49.99 tribute (not from me) in order to implement these missing weapons?:













Like the last update. All the German additions are just Premiums. Thats sick. Especially air…
Last BR adjustment cycle. I tried to play it, but got massacred by jets. Its quite interesting. It was 5.7 as they added it. Instead Gajin should be BR nerfed the Yak-3U.
Hey @Smin1080p_WT looking at the feedback here maybe the devs could reevaluate this topic?
Since the devstream will be later today it could be adressed there as well
Unlikely I would guess that remains exclusive to the event He 177 for now but might ofc be possible in the future.
Is there a suggestion for it yet?

Yes
We’re talking about the Arado though :)
Also you have to make a suggestion not bug report afaik
Tbh, there are too many Prem additions for Ger. Last patch we had that Argentinian striker, the Focke Wulf and now again an Arado. Almost nothing for our TT.
Then the price tag. I could imagine to buy a low BR WW2 around 6.3 BR for a certain amount of money. But the price of a full priced A-game release for just another low BR jet?
Oh, I thought you were talking about the HS293 of HE 177.And, this report was not written by me; I simply conducted a direct search
Only looking at regularly obtainable premiums around late WW2 BRs, you have:
Tiger Ost (5.7), Tiger West (5.7)and Pz.Bef.Wg.VI(P) (5.7), and Tiger II SLA16 as heavy tanks
Jagdpanther BFW (6.3) as a TD
Ostwind Ost (5.3) as SPAA
Do335B-2 (5.7) as a heavily armed strike aircraft
Fw190D-13 (5.0 but easily holds its own up to about 5.7) as a fighter-bomber (using custom loadouts you can have 4x SC50 and 1x SC500)
Ju288 with big funny bomb (6.0/6.3)
Adding fomo premiums and event vehicles:
Tempest Mk.V (5.7) as a pure fighter (no bombs)
Elefant as a heavyily armoured TD
VK4501(P) (5.3) as a heavy tank
VFW paper canon TD
He177 BP bomber
What gaps do we have here?
A late Bf109 as a premium would probably be welcome since Germany lacks a regularly available premium prop fighter above 5.0. Lots of sub variants missing so plenty of chance to add one.
Panther premium? All the tank premiums are heavies. Would be nice to add some variety.
Me262 premium variants would be welcome… but better to fill out the tech tree since we don’t have anything like as many variants in that as we should.
I think the new arado fills a niche for a premium strike aircraft that can perform in the 6.3+ range, perhaps not the biggest gap in premiums but doesn’t seem totally redundant.
Plus not every addition to the game needs to fill a gap, and having more than one option in the same niche is OK.
Won’t happen because it would be in competition with the two fronts pack.
Imho the next BR to get the “new starter packs” will be around 6.7. For Germany that’s gonna mean more premium Tiger IIs imho.
Probably wouldn’t sell that well. 109s (apart from perhaps the F-4) require a LOT of skill to use effectively due to their characteristics and weak armament.
Also late 109s are very much inferiour to the undertiered allied props that are also compressed into this BR
They seem alright in GRB with gunpods. Especially the 30mm ones if you can aim
Oxy just said on the devstream that the TT version is getting the gunpod too
Edit: Nevermind. He has goldfish memory
but only on the premium since we need to block everything cool behind a paywall
