Kings of Battle - Rumor Round-Up and Discussion (Part 2)

Japan, and nations like britain, france, germany and italy would have platforms and/or missiles that wildly vary in terms of performance
The better assumption would be that they are waiting for the late 4.5 gen era to introduce those missiles, but people really wouldn’t want to wait for that

how about no we don’t need more mig29s

For the record, I don’t think there’s a gap. I’m not saying I need any major changes. I just honestly hate looking at the MiG-29 without the R-73, it’s just not how it’s supposed to look.

Frankly I don’t care if the BR’s change all that much, minor nations do huge gap leaps down the lines at times.

I hope not because it’s already a fantaisy plane they give us with the -5F wich was not supposed to use either 530s nor ground capabilitys like that…

Wish we quickly stop having only 4 missiles max at top tier…

Says you lmao

I wouldn’t see a problem with adding another MiG-29 at 12.3 or 12.0 depending on their approach to fulfilling that wish, but russia having 2 12.3s or R-73s at 12.0 would start so many problems with the US players again

Looks at the scroll bar 400 more

Yeah. Well, minor nations need additions too. I’m not complaining really about anything other than the aesthetic of the 9.13 being ruined by the R-60M.

Plus, IMO, given most western planes have a higher CM count, and that you only get 2 R-27’s, with the new flight model you basically dump your best two missiles and get stuck in the furball where if you don’t leave quickly, you transform into bait for some F-16 or another enterprising plane.

I don’t feel like 4 R-73’s would muck it up all that bad. I think it would in general make the 9.13 slightly more competitive than it’s peers at BR, but it’s a slight advantage, not some Object 279 level seal club.

But hey, US mains seem to get pissed if anything is even close in capability at BR to their planes so I guess I’ll crawl back into my hole lmao.

Ah yeah, I feel for ya, france is in a rough spot

Does someone know when the update gets released? Is next week realistic?

Yeah, I don’t think there is a proper solution to make everybody happy.
It would help a lot if they reduced the playercount for ARB top tier or added a setting to choose between the lobby-sizes.
Would probably also have been better if they added R-73s without the IRCCM to give you guys a step up from the R-60s. This IRCCM/ECCM stuff wasn’t really needed anyways

the problem with r73 is there still a bit buggy

I wouldn’t be able to tell, I only use tea-fuelled missiles

The October/November Sale usually drops around this timeframe, it would make sense for both the Sale and Update to drop next week.

They changed the blog. It’s confirmed that it was just typo, even though it would be nice if Israel gets Black Hawk too

Yeah, already read about that, shame that only the US and USSR get to have that many helis
Why are they adding the Black Hawk anyways? The Apache not good enough?

Man i miss old TopGear. Oops im going off-topic ;)

Sales starts between 28-2 but i doubt they will come before the update, so update day and sales

Wait you can run out of heart? Oops another one ;)
