Major Update “Firebirds” — DEV Server Changelog (25.10.2024) - Dev Server is closed

Yeah man, the four leclercs with the second worst NATO round at top BR are super strong, very equal to Leopard 2A7V.

I don’t want bloody Leopard 2s to invade the French tree either, but don’t try to pass off the Leclerc as a Leopard 2A7V competitor lemao. They barely keep up with the Leopard 2A5 as is.

You can keep your big cats to yourself, they’re not welcome in France.

I might have missed it somewhere but has it been confirmed that the Patriot system is actually coming to top tier airfields as the new air defense? Or was it just a cinematic bit to sell an airplane that’s been downed by it at least five times in the last year or so?

Just a cinematic because of an video of audio when an SU-34 dodged incoming Patriots.

I knew it was based on an audio bit, just wasn’t sure if it was actually coming to the game or not since the Roland’s are actually quite terirble at protecting airfields.

Now we just need to see a cinematic of Major Emmett “ET” Tullia dodging six SAMs in the F-16 o7

No, youll have the in riots if gaijin ever gave us the 140mm as apparently, if a German company upgraded it on a loan chasse it means its German.

Maybe they should put pantsirs, considering they think they are fit to be in the game. Would allow them to not bother with the m247s as well as the pantsir has its own cannons.

no boingy sproingy thingy= boring I’m afraid.

You’re mad because Germany’s vehicles aren’t exclusive.

I’m mad because these additions means France will likely be shunted with this band-aid. I certainly did not want to see them either, France needs support vehicles and a native top tier AA (say no to the ItO).

Latest dev is crashing on Linux.

Pilot “eyes camera” looks placed to low as on many other jets.

Was there a bug report for the Su-22M3’s to receive the SPO-15 RWR again?

Common issue then.

This can be adjusted with configurable controls, but is a) not persistent (has to be redone every spawn) and b) can only be activated by holding a key. This is fine if one has e.g. a controller (like my Thrustmaster Warthog) that has toggles on which that function can be configured, if not it’s very cumbersome.

Please don’t add Leos to France
Just add original French vehicles, nations became less unique because of changes like this, it’s just slop now…

Moving camera to correct position is easy, real problem is loosing “half” of the HUD.

The “ammo-box” for rocket vehicles finally works

The cooldown works, the build mode works but the crate isn’t actually created
It doesn’t actually work for rocket vehicles, only for AA

I enjoy about up to 8.3. I’m able to play a bit higher, but really my favorite ranks are start to about 8. What I’ve played of the higher BR, I dunno, just don’t enjoy the feel.

3.7 through like 6.7 is a lot of fun for me. 7.7 is also interesting. But yeah, full on modern just doesn’t draw me as much as Interwar through mid Cold War.

Honestly, I really wanna see more bizarre interwar stuff at the bottom, more of the silly or experimental designs as well as more WW2 Weirdness.

Leos everywhere because reasons. Nah I’d love to see more unique stuff, or continued unique stuff. I don’t mind Leos in addition to unique stuff but it does feel like they’ve been giving out Leos like they had been giving out T80s for a bit there. I get why, lotta places use em, just like a lot of countries used shermans, but it still feels like more unique vehicles alongside them would be better.

Works for TDs aswell

Is there even a working flight path marker on any of the plane HUD’s in the game?

Not a single one that I’m aware of.

Ironically though, in the so called HUD-view, when you have gear down and a certain low speed, a small white FPM marker is not only indicated, but works perfectly correct and even has the proper design (circle with three small lines, “aircraft symbol”).
