you can at altitude as the air is less dense there and so induces less drag force.
IIRC most tests are done at like 10-11km or something like that.
Note that effective range, and max range are two different things and i think you and the other player discussed different things at some point or another.
The event vehicle Smin mentioned has been announced! The Boxer MGS for Germany.
That’s good news
Don’t you want to create a system that separates semi-active and active missiles?
lol silly me I misread the title and for a short moment i thought it was “Update for Sim”.
But seriously when are we going to have some attention to WT best mode “Simulation” I only play Air Sim EC which works very well till rank 6 but Rank 7 and up are in serious need of adaptation to the more sophisticated weapon systems that are now available.
GDR was a part of the Soviet Union… 😂
We always see what we want to see…
Cool feature! Shame it doesnt work…
@Smin1080p_WT Sorry for being late to this, was not allowed to participate sooner.
My question/s:
Could future Lootboxes please be adjusted so Players no longer get vehicle duplicates that get replaced by a useless one million SL? Technically the player did win a vehicle, so an actual vehicle should be added to the Account. A million SL is not very adequate as compensation in my opinion.
And could there be more options for making past vehicles obtainable besides gambling? As someone who spent around 800€ on the Travel Suitcase to win the Ka-Chi and still failed to get it, this RNG approach can be very dangerous and unsatisfactory.
€800 on lootboxes to try and win 1 vehicle is downright worrying. People should be able to spend their money how they like but I mean €800 is frightening.
But seriously if this is true then you have a real gambling problem please seek help
I want the Ka-Chi, and thus I am forced to use the means that Gaijin gives us. You think I want to spend so much on Boxes? Also, aside from this instance I never do any gambling. Just a Gaijin lootbox that has what I want and is aviable for a month or so per year.
The al khaleed is in no way better than the 2A4 or M1, both have better reload and mobility, better depression, the only difference being turret armor.
No single vehicle is worth that much. There’s vehicle I want that I can only now get from lootboxes but I would never spend that much just for a chance to get it
I am a collector. I saved money on the market for months leading up to the 2023(?) Summer Boxes until I hit 1300 GJN and obtained the IS-7. Currently I am at 1500 GJN on the E100. So vehicles are definitely worth a lot to me, but I find it a shame that Gaijin are exploiting me because of my way of play.
Yes, no vehicle should be worth hundreds and thousand of bucks, tell this to Gaijin. Not me.
I mean it’s a double edged sword. Yes the market is in an interesting state right now, but you also care a lot for things you won’t even ever own. Iirc you don’t own the vehicles in game, you just pay to use them.
When the servers eventually get shut down (whenever that may be) or if you ever end up getting banned you’ll lose all vehicles forever anyway.
While you are not wrong, it is a rather negative approach to existence and doingness. We should all take a step back and focus on the now rather than the then. Because when you only think about and believe in the future, you May lose your focus and drive on the present. For the future to exist the actions must be taken in the present. Sure WT may shut down one day or I lose access, but right now, I am here and playing. So we should be allowed to make the best of every Moment.
And Gaijin does not allow it.
You are leaving these Al-Khalid’s advantages vs Leopard 2A4 and M1, apart from turret armor (and hull armor too in Leopard 2A4’s case):
-Better thermals (3nd gen vs 1st gen)
-More thermals (includes CITV)
-Better shell (577mm pen vs 410 and 372 respectively)
And, if Gaijin even bothers to fix MBT-2000/Al-Khalid, they would receive spall liners, as well (VT-4, ZTZ-99A and WZ too).
@Smin1080p_WT is there any rework of the JA37C and JA37D planed? there are numorus reports, which proof that the JA37D was mainly made to carry rb99 and also there have been reports showing that the JA37C was able to carry BOL POD. the rework would make the existence ingame of the JA39D sensfull because the JA37C was reported to carry the RB74. so it seems pretty strong as Gaijin used them to get more top tier planes for sweden but has no intention of giving them the loadouts besides other gen4 jets carrying fox3, looking at you germany, which does seem like a shame
And the massive LFP where you just blow up and nothing can be done, or the non existing turret armor where you have massive weakspots around breech. I would take 2A4 any day over Al Khalid.
Hello again @richthofen122 🙂 I will continue to advocate for a system where you are able to get your Ka-Chi via a reasonable method.
For anyone who hasn’t already seen my previous ideas/suggestions for possible changes to the duplicate vehicle drops from “toolbox” events:
Change to NO duplicates, but lower the odds of any vehicle from 0.5% to something like 0.05%. The company would never change to no duplicates without also lowering the odds. (I do NOT advocate for this as you would now need ~2,000 boxes to HOPE to have a chance, instead of “only” ~200 boxes. Spending 120 Million SL instead of 12 Million for a chance at one vehicle.)
Change to NO duplicates with the same odds, but only allow it for those with 180 days+ or even 365 days+ of premium time. ( This would be my preference, allows a reasonably priced route for collectors to get NO duplicates, while also generating more stable income for Gaijin. A true win/win imo.)
Change the 1m SL for duplicates to 12m SL, which by the odds, would give you enough SL to “get” another vehicle. (I think this route is bad though, as it would flood the market with other prizes which would dilute everything even more. I do not advocate for this option.)
Changing to DIRECT CHOICE of vehicle is UNTENABLE as they would lower the odds to be like the main prize odds @ 0.001%. NOT GOING TO HAPPEN, just NO.

You can do exactly the same as the Al-khalid to the Leopard 2A4/M1 Abrams. None of their armor will do much against DTC10.
