Dance of Dragon - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

Yeah, I’m assuming Smin didn’t mean Barham is Britain’s Rank VI ship, in this context. Fingers crossed it’s a different QE in the tech tree in the next couple patches.

if they try to say that is our ship im gonna be completely honest I give up on trying to play british naval with how completely mistreated it is

Any chance this new update addresses the horrendous state TOW-2Bs are in?

In the pilot cockpit, only the round map on the MFD has changed. No?

AFAIK Mk.103. As on ALL IDS TORNADO IN GAME EXCLUDE GR.1

But we’ll still have a 20km limit, so what difference does it make?

If the gaijin give them. You probably know better than anyone how much stuff the gaijin didn’t give to the British planes.

Do you mean on HUD? I VERY strongly doubt that this will ever be added, but gaijin knows how to surprise. True, most often in this case we are talking about the US or Russian tech trее

This is the main reason for adding it. From War Thunder’s point of view, the difference between GR.1 and GR.4 is that GR.1 is a “truck” and GR.4 is a missile carrier. But if we take into account that gaijin do not differentiate between suspensions by mode, and also that they are afraid of offending tankers, then the chances of seeing air-to-ground missiles with an active radar homing head tend to zero.

I made a report concerning the C-701 missile, 400 view, 342 signatory and still no modo to answer me… T-T

Im not sure the exact changes, but I thought it was more than that.

Yes, I am aware that all Tornados other than the Gr1 use Mk103s already, but as the GR4 would be the direct upgrade from the Gr1. The better engines would be felt for us.

TIALD Is currently modeled as Gen 1. If we got Litening III instead. That would give us a Gen 3 thermals. A significant upgrade over the current Tpod. Regardless of the 20km limit.

Yes… This is true. But they cant restrict us forever

Dead tanks supposedly triggers the warheads of the 2B and Bill on the dev server, so i think that is a wishfull thought

question, does enyone else have a issue where warthunder will say chat conected often?

For the pilot that is pretty much it, behind the hood there was a fair amount of digitalisation
top GR4 fore cockpit, bottom is the same but GR1

Since the “fours” were not built from scratch, but simply converted from “ones”, it would be funny if the Gaijin added the GR.4 with the Mk.101

Well, maybe to humiliate tankers, but I use it in ASB, where without changing the range little will change.

Well, with the J-10 and JF17 we have confidently entered the territory of 4.5 generations. Let’s see how long we will wait for our main toy…

Then it would be massively historically wrong. Considering that, as far as I am aware, by the time the GR4 upgrade program was started. all the GR1s were using the MK103 engines and had been for years. The only reason we are stuck with Mk101s is Gaijin.

Yes, I know. It was just a sad joke.

Unfortunately… Probably one that will come to pass. Just watch the Gr4 be stuck with Aim-9Ls, Mk103 engines, Gen 1 TIALD and No Brimstones

But the ASSTA3.1 and A200C will get every single bell and whistle whilst being at a lower BR

whats that?

DLAA = Deep learning anti-aliasing

It’s similar to DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) but for anti-aliasing. It offers better performance than SSAA while providing similar levels of quality. In short, it allows you to achieve the quality of SSAA without as significant a performance hit, making it a great option for lower-end PCs.

Also now you dont have to deal with TAA which sucks. Generally it adds another option which is nice, now the ranking looks like this for most quality:

  • SSAA (4x)
  • DLAA
  • TAA
  • HQ FXAA
  • FXAA

I am wondering if we also get it build in on the next gen consoles

fsr is basically amd’s version of dlss which downscales your resolution then upscales it again with ai. Its great because unlike dlss which can only be used by newer nvidia graphic cards, fsr can also be used without an amd graphics card

I disagree. She’s fast, but the added length and the 5th turret make her look lanky and gaudy. And her armor is just a flat downgrade. An okay ship, not bad by any means, but they made the right call inventing the modern fast battleship instead of building more of… this.

I disagree here, at least in-game terms. Tosa (not Kaga, because she was converted to a CV, and…) will be the top dog until Yamato. Extra turret, armor is close enough that anything which can penetrate Tosa will do the same to Nagato.
You can, and should point out that Nagato has much thicker turret armor, making them extremely resistant to gunfire at in-game ranges. However, this really cool thing I learned after looking at the Amagi blog again, THEY PUT NAGATOS UPARMORED TURRETS ON AMAGI. THE TURRETS SPECIFICALLY UPGRADED FOR NAGATO AND MUTSU AFTER THE REST OF THE 8-8 FLEET WAS CANCELLED. MUCH LIKE THE SEAPLANE THIS SHIP WAS MODELED BY SOMEONE WHO DIDN’T CARE OR AN AI. NO RESEARCH WAS PUT INTO THIS MODEL. Plagiarism is an F-, no points are awarded, automatic 0, see me after class.

What a joke. This chicanery must end. Unless these painfully obvious issues are resolved I can’t bring myself to try and get her. Not unless the tech tree AI is allowed to place her in the tree haphazardly, thus roadblocking further progress. At least the rest of the naval additions seem okay. Shame my ~$120 put into the French tree is being wasted. 6 patches and no 7.0.
