That’s the point, it won’t be meta/good or something.
It’s a unique option.
An event vehicle doesn’t have to be good always.
Ex.
Look at the IRIAF Tomcat. i wasn’t/am not against it, however at the time (and still) it was implemented and without ANY fixes to AIM-54s or TT 14s, it damaged more the TT 14s , than anything else in the game.
With the correct fixes or later, it could have been better as addition not as meta.
Events, should be unique vehicles… not TT tier ones (Block 5).
In general they show in every turn that they don’t care and even without similar games in the market.
Forum is more interesting than the game itself.
The F-16XL had the space for flares to be fitted if it ever went into full production. This is from NASA’s Elegance in Flight
It was also planned to be given the avionics and equipment for the F-16C/D which would be the Block 30/32 kit which included AMRAAM.
(Also from the NASA book)
Since it was planned to get Block 30/32 equipment if it was to go into production then it should get that equipment. We have seen it before with the Yak-141 getting equipment it never had but would have if it went into service.
Gaijin ruining their own game is becoming hilarious.
There’s plenty they could do to improve the game. RB and SB, but instead, they continue to add more useless vehicles rather than improve cockpits, gauges, FM’s, various bugs, improve maps, objectives, and AI behavior to name a few.
These boxes always have the same vehicles. In these, i.e. in February boxes there will be, among others: 38 cm Sturmmörser, T18E2, Lorraine 155 Mle.50 , AMX-50 Surblindé and BA-11.
That’s great, I’ll be able to skip this event. It’s just a copied F-16, and the F-16 is a very ugly plane, and I don’t even have time, I’m always working.
despite all the criticism towards copy-paste. The plane is very interesting, since this is the second F-16 at 12.3 (unlike the thousandth version of the T-72), and using it as a weekend collector’s fighter during discounts on equipment will be a lot of fun. So I’ll be happy to leave it, but I need more details about the characteristics.
The bad thing. They always plan something big and it always backfires because the game need fixes in very small parts here and there that get bigger than the biggest they can bring to the table anyway.
With that balance they have here, the best thing they can talk about is minimal vs the problems the game has.
Yes. Then don’t give any vehicle and focus on …fixing the game before you get into ^something big^ ?
You know what gajin should actually do? Make a BIG ITS FIXED update, meaning, spending countless houres in the forum, fixing evreything, and then countinouing adding stuff.
There’s few words do describe the incompetence and disappointment Gaijin has displayed with the French tech tree. You guys take a nation with a wall of suggestions with several successful export vehicles, several test beds, and unique upgrades to native vehicles, and 3 times in a row you fumble. NF-5 premium instead of a III NG, this over a the MF2000, the Squadron instead of the 2000B 501 or the Mirage 2000-9
