Just really anticipated games, so it was a rather good prediction.
I personally do not play Baldur’s Gate, you can tell from my misspelling of it initially.

@Mysto
Well, I must apologize for not naming Separate Ways specifically. I did provide an “and so forth” for other games people are enjoying.

I am about 98% certain they will pick the XM-8 hull because its already in the game and easier to implement/balance, but I personally would love the humvee version with the XM-8 in the TT at some point. Balancing wise a car would be harder as you need to account for inability to turn, masively more likely to die to arty/light mg fire/a sneeze, etc.

IDK why but I love the idea of trolling with the humvee version more.

If we really get mgm166 to this event,(i know we can’t) i don’t know what to say.

I can’t remember the specifics; however, the shell is designed in a way that makes it difficult to detonate when hit, and for a comparison with the PSO, look at the 2A6, and there’s your comparison.

The 2A7 is a 2A6, not Strv 122, with better thermals.

It would be hilarious, if event with Japanese name, would have super bad , not unique and useless asian vehicles and one US unique vehicle. Truly Gaijin moment

US already got a 3rd gen targeting pod, the Litening II on the F-16C, which should really be renamed to Litening AT, which I bug reported already but seems that it will just stay forgotten. Russia should hopefully get a FLIR pod soon, the SMT could have one I think…

No, Sniper Pod is 3rd gen, LITENING II is 2nd gen.

I really hope we get Harrier Gr9A will sniper pod ASAP. TIALD pod sucks

Dont think it can, pretty sure the t-220 pod only became available to mig-29m forward.

The base Litening II might not be, but the improved version such as Litening AT and Litening III are 3rd gen, or at least I’ve seen it referred to as 3rd gen. F-16C really has the Litening AT, as it has 3rd gen thermal quality already on the pod, unlike the Litening II on the ASSTA1 for instance, which shares the same resolution as other gen 2 pods.

MiG-29M came before the SMT.

Anyone knows if the roadmap continues next year in 2024? If so can you link or screenshot of where it was said please sorry for being off topic

Mig-29M First Flight: 2005.
Mig-29SMT Serial Production: 2004, first prototype 1998.
So no, 29M came after.

That’s the MiG-29SMT 9.17, I believe the model we have is from 2009-2010, but ofc is in a very nerfed state.

I dont think they’ve released a 2024 roadmap yet, Im guessing they will in the new year. I know a lot of stuff they’ve said they want to address in the past wasnt on the this years road map. So I assume there will be a 2024 roadmap

Should be, the 9.17 I believe had even a larger hump than the 9.19, the in game model suggests it is a 9.19. And then of course there is the fact that the SMT is named “mig_29smt_9_19” in the game files.
