Major Update “Air Superiority” - Rumor Round-Up and Discussion (Part 4)

I think he is specifically referring to squad vehicles with the same BR.

Yea only 11.7 vehicles went to Rank VIII (and the Merkava folder but that is even more laughable), why would the 2PL

can someone whos Chinese help me track down the original source of this document? We need it to guarantee that the VT-4 receives modern turret movement speed’s!

the only place i can find the document from is this video at 6:30 : 【斗兽场】VT4A1 VS K2 谁是东亚陆战之王 上_哔哩哔哩_bilibili
but there is no link or source on where it originated form or how official it is, so i cant use it in a bug report…

heres the broken up link to the video since it dosnt seem to work here: https://b23.tv /G4mZlO3#up

Ha, perhaps… That’s true you guys have squadron vehicle x’)

SEP v2 TUSK is all real. So is point and click. 2A7 is a legitimate tank, and the modifications that account for it’s proposed variants serve in some other European militaries, whilst the Bundeswehr has tested the variants as well. 2A7 is going to be a good tank, I’m not sure how you could complain. Strv 122+ too. Chally 3 may be a prototype, but it is represented with the smoothbore 120mm as it will take. OES is real too.

T-90M is well documented by Western standards. It’s Relikt ERA is the best in the world. If the T-90M could actually reverse, maybe there’d be something to complain about.

@tripod2008 if the M270/ATACMS now appearing in the files are intended to be able to interact w/ player vehicles it might be related to the World War Mode iconography recently added, such as " artillery ready "
image
and the implication of more modern objectives, example " helicopter carrying infantry "
image
( Unused assets of War Thunder )

The Giatsint-B and M198 howitzers, and the Grad and Smerch MLRS also appearing would be equally related to this possibility, since at present WWM only has WW2 static artillery available for the mission types which feature them - the 6-pdr and 17-pdr, PaK 42 etc.
And there 's the expanded WWM maps from 2.7.0.55 to remember too, such as " flat fulda "


( 2.7.0.55 new maps - Album on Imgur )

If these new assets are entirely unrelated to WWM though, expect them to replace the ancient low-detail towed gun ground targets in air modes - and not have any serious modelling of their warheads or shells.

I think they were talking bout the armour. and how is weaker the wet paper.

How do we even know that the DU isn’t being accounted for on some level? Have you considered that they haven’t bothered to model it, and have given appropriate consideration to what it can do, in light of also keeping the game balanced?

Is this a bigger Fulda gap mission? Looks fun!

not the only ones that did it uwu

Anything would be a bigger Fulda now that they’ve shrunk it 😔 but the major difference abt this one is that it 's flat Fulda - no more steep grades to climb and descend.

The really big Ground map leaked in 2.7.0.55 was this, Norway Fjords, apparently a higher detail version of the Air Arcade map " suitable " for tanks.

The Advance event ( [Event] The “Advance” Event - News - War Thunder ) was a creative way of expanding on the unused space between Port Novo 's regular variants, I hope we’ll have similarly setup maps appear in future - it 's not like we’re short on capture point icons for them:

Fulda itself could, and should be it’s own update. Sprinkle in some classic West German, French, US, British, and USSR vehicles, some tanks, some jets, something to fill an update with. It should still have a little bit of a valley but I digress. Would be cool to see Gaijin max out the environmental effects, like artillery barrages in the distance, flights of distant strike aircraft flying by. Maybe some medium range ballistic missiles landing once or twice per map, all in the background of course.

I can’t speak for all the nations, I’m sure there’s some Chieftain or Chally 1 variant that isn’t in the game, likewise with something French, but this would be the perfect patch for the Alpha Jet, BMD-1, Zhalo, Nona mortar, Scorpion AFV, and others I’m sure people can think of better than me.

Chieftan mk 11 would be nice

we can see that most of the vehicles have been implemented in the game since
image
note certain vehicles like the Bulgarian BMP-23, the Slovenian M-55 are not yet in game but could arrive during an event or in the next update

For the biased experts against Russia here, it would be ideal if Russian tanks were made of paper and NATO tanks had an armor value of approx. 5000 mm.

of course germany was for girls und panzer

meanwhile me having the GUP panzer 4 premium in WOT being one of my most played tanks
