Major Update "Firebirds" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

If we’re just tossing coins in the wishing well, I “wish” that Gaijin would just add the Su-30M and Su-30MKK for some more multirole fun in both the Russian and Chinese trees. :)

Ah! In my mind I was still thinking of a world where the AJ didn’t get added, but now I understand. Thanks

I just want them to keep adding modern aircraft for everyone at a faster pace so that we can all enjoy the goodies

That´s not what I meant in my original comment at all and I don´t blame you thinking that since Hyrikul is able to twist words so nicely.

What I said was that every time Germany players ask for something, vocal minority haters of Germany gets upset and actively fights against it. Then Gaijin listens to this vocal minority (see Smin´s comment) and denies addition of those vehicles to Germany.

This double standard is what upsets me.

its an interceptor

need I say more?

Noticed how he ignored this question of yours

Never gonna forget the request for the Indian Rafale for UK, still gonna remember this act of war for the next decade ! :p

Ray tracing, vapor trails, etc.

At the very least some good stuff for sure.

Yyep.

+They can always get F-16ADF “late” with AIM-120, AIM-9M and upgraded radar.

I still apologise for that…

I mean… it is fair game :p

I actually enjoy the pace we currently have, but some additions could be better timed

and to be honest

last Time I saw an Italian complain about their air tree was the pre-starfighter G.91YS age

More Leclercs, more domestic support vehicle, BIG UNNERF of the Leclercs and they could be meta without problems.

Also fair but I know theres quite a few who would like another Spanish vehicle

And itll get added eventually anyway

From my perspective. Germany got the Mig-23MLA 6 months before the Harrier Gr7 and a year before the Tornado F3.

Germany got the Mig-29 in teh same update we got the Tornado F3 which was so broken i dont even consider it added until the following update.

Before Britian got a single new aircraft, Germany got the Mig-29G which was the meta aircraft until we finally got a counter to the Mig-29 which was the Gripen C. Which they then nerfed quite badly and still held a notable disadvantage vs the Mig-29G as it had Skyflash DFs vs R-27ERs.

I would say Germany has maintained meta status just fine up until June this year. Far more so than Britain has done so at the very least. and even since June, main ARH carrier i’ve played is the FA2 and i do just fine in it. ICE should be easy in comparison.

Spain technically counts under minor Axis, so that’s the justification for Italy getting it.

And would allow for a total Hornet update with any nation that could get one getting it. Although the Spanish Hornet is the one I’d say is least likely to come out of the ones I’m sure could come right away.
