"Firebirds" Update Teaser

Why are there no Swedish vehicles this update? There weren’t any tech tree vehicles last update either.

I swear some people are just blind and lazy.

It was shown on the stream, there is at least the BMP-2MD coming as a squadron vehicle
(For reference its a BMP-2 with no ATGM but gen 2(maybe 3) thermals

he did say “tech tree” vehicles :P

Sweden has in the last 4 major updates goten one jet and one light tank in the main tech trees, the rest have been premium, event or squad vehicles.

ah right fair, all I read was this:

When DEV Server? ;-;

Dude you managed to quote him and still lie about what he said.

Laser guided brimstones on a freaking tornado are in no way “the most OP CAS”.

You can’t make this shit up…

That’s… Not how any of this works at all… Lmao.

They are completely different platforms with completely different weapon systems.

Basically “I don’t like bicycles.”, “Oh so you don’t like motorcycles either, got it.”…

I swear you make everyone here dumber with your insane takes and ramblings.

Edit: Also touch some grass, as you seem to live on this goddamn forum. Live a little for a while, as this is just sad.

Most likely, he works here.

should is the key word there. Based on early dev server footage we see a range of just of about 12-15km
Brimstone should be top attack so its pen is irrelevant…yet it will likely hit the armoured front plates and turrets

Yeah, that’s the thing. ALL my statements were on its correct ranges.
If it doesn’t have that… then yeah it’ll just be on-par with the other CAS.

Thanks for proving my point.

Use the same measure when comparing things.

Is WT changing its direction from somewhat realistic game to action shooter ?

@Stona_WT :

When will there be another economy re-work since the previous RP and SL reductions have been wiped out with the addition of the new top rank vehicles over the last year and a half? Also, please answer what is the expected grind length for an average player.

my blue balls still haven’t healed from when I found out the Patriot was only in the trailer

With the current state of non Russian SPAA/AD, it is essentially the only effective counter.

I have probably killed more SU-25’s with my OH-58 than I have my Chaparrel, Roland and Lav-AD combined.

Oh brother we’ve already jumped that shark

This game is not about historical balance or accuracy, otherwise this game would be dead.
Some countries had advantages in different times.

War Thunder Devs. If you are reading this, I think that this is a fantastic update, and I’m very impressed at the fact that we’re only in the dev server and it appears that we have a more sophisticated stealth mechanic than DCS does, which touts itself as the better simulator.

I am largely happy with the update, but there is a problem. On the dev stream is where I believe this was said, but the reason given for the use of the F-100 PW 220 engine in the F-15E is unsatisfactory. It was stated that the reason was because if it received the 229 engine, which is in the nearly identical Israeli vehicle, then there would be no reason to grind for the other American Eagles.

The reason that this is an issue is because the US tech tree has become by far the most bloated tech tree in the game, requiring more hours to unlock the hundreds of aircraft in it than any of the other tech trees do, which is incredibly fatiguing. I fully understand that if someone can just grind the bomber line to get an aircraft which is good at everything, Gaijin will not make as much money from premium time/GE sales. It is distasteful to many, and many people whom I have spoken to about this decision feel insulted and that this is a blatantly unfair representation of such a popular aircraft.

I understand that the Strike Eagle does not need to be stronger to be good at air to ground, but l think that this is the wrong choice considering the context being that we are getting a stronger aircraft in another tech tree in the same update, when performance should be the same. I also don’t think that it’s an entirely historic representation of the aircraft either.

Please, Gaijin, I and many others would very much like to see this fixed or at least addressed before the patch day.

Gaijin: The patriotic food in the Russian Federation is really delicious!
