I still mean issue. Out of a game design perspective, we are revoking meaningful information from a player which can determine his decision on how to approach a risky situation.
If this is done for historical reasons, that’s in line with game design. If it is done to “simplyfy” for some other reason, it is removing a level of mastery from the game, just like the first order ammo rack mechanic did with reload times and working with the information advantage.
And I wish to add something really important here: The argument you made, albeit a reasonable one for a general strategy is a very two edged sword in this context. Because depending on the subject matter, a lot of people may join you in this case and accuse me of “doing something wrong”. Meanwhile my critique is based on a nerf that I have not heard any reason for and that removes a great layer of depth from the gameplay right now.
By your statement alone, you can strawman the argument into something it never was which legitimizes the decision of Gaijin to remove this layer and call it a day when they really should not have simply gotten away with a nerf like that without any clear reasoning.
Considering there is a VERY strong chance the Premium WTD tornado, is actually the ASSTA2 upgrade variant, it still would lack guided armament which came on the ASSTA3 upgrade.
Now implementing the ASSTA3 as a TT would’ve been a PERFECT addition this update, but instead…
Has there been any official statement on why there’s a big nerf coming to Western/NATO RWRs? I know they just posted the change but any official “Here’s why we are doing it”?
General Lee did a fairly good job explaining why this is a terrible decision, but don’t know if Gaijin has said anything.
I have updated the comment to be more specific in both of our favor.
Thank you for bringing those issues to my attention.
Yes
And the reports for many RWR are up or will be up soon.
Viggen shows up as F-16 on RWRs, you will know it’s a Viggen/F-16-like vehicle coming at you.
All PD radars are still identified on at least AN/ALR-56 onward.
I have not checked AN/ALR-46 however, though it appears ALR-46 only got missile warning changes [not removed].
Oh Jesus I’m gonna have a stroke. I have no way to help with Gripen’s RWR but I can already tell the players are getting shafted with this “Make a report”.
So any chance at a dev response on this? Judging by the response of likes (14 and counting) it seems to be a major issue to us naval players. At what point, in any of these dev servers, will the concerns of naval players be addressed? It’s not even asking for something NEW, just to NOT implement something we were never asked about or asked FOR.
Looks like a good update so far.
What I like:
What I don’t like:
In general I don’t like how subtrees are evolving. I like a subtree like South Africa and to a lesser extent Finland as they have unique vehicles or don’t detract much from the character of a tree. But I don’t like Benelux at all so far. Yes, it’s good for line-ups but C&P Leopards and F-16’s in every tree with almost no unique vehicles is not the way to go imo. It only seems to get in the way of more interesting additions (of which the French have plenty) so far. Maybe it’s time to revise how subtrees work, there is a nice proposal on this forum that would improve things.
I just want an abrams with armor tbh
Still no sign of new SPAA for Israel
A message to the devs: we hear your silence on the by far most popular forum poll right now. The F-15E deserves the PW 229 engine. 88% of people, almost 1000 votes says so.
You have been giving this poll the silent treatment, you’re posting updates without addressing it. YOU HAVE TO ADDRESS THIS. It is the largest complaint you have received and you have to say something about it.
Why can’t people care that much about non top tier stuff, it’s extremely annoying.
Why isn’t the largest complaint about the RWR changes, which affect a ton of planes instead of just a single plane.
You don’t even know lmao, the Flanker is 72 feet long and the B-17 is 74. That’s some real perspective.
the player’s opinions aren’t always the most balanced way to make the game
Neither are gaijins.
new gbu-54b will stay like gbu-38 or like new paveway 4 with capabilities to laser guide?
Give me mode 3 Brimstones 😜
why not 9?
