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

Is there any change for what you’ve said before ‘Every nation would get Rank VI ship for update ‘Dance of Dragons’ and upcoming update’? Or we can expect four nation(Germany, Italy, Great Britain and France) could get at least one Rank VI ship.

Are the UK getting the F-117?

Because the Vickers MBT is an indigenous design.

The F-117 had fuck all to do with Britain, nor is Britain in a situation where we need to stretch the rules of implementation in order to fill in some hole.

Event vehicles are not supposed to fill gaps though are they? Its like people just ignore the point I am making and replace it with what they WANT the point to be…

It’s also not going to be an event vehicle. Leaks indicate it’s going to be a squadron vehicle, and if it were to be an event vehicle, Britain never needed it anyway so they shouldn’t get it. US loses enough of its vehicles to copy paste as it is.

Where did I say the leaked F117 was going to be in the UK, or an event vehicle?

He did say subject to change.

We just need to keep our fingers crossed.

So where do you want it? The tech tree? That’s a terrible idea, it’s subsonic, lacks any A2A capabilities, has a pitiful bombload, and the stealth capabilities won’t be applicable to ground rb. There’s a reason why it’s going to be a squadron vehicle, it’s less practical in War Thunder then the Sturmtiger.

That would be ridiculous. But we don’t know yet.

My hope is no but with gaijin who knows.

It is the kind of vehicle that would more often than not appear as an event vehicle not SQV.

SQVs tend to have a higher use case within a line-up, but events can be purely to test something (like Su-25BM with R-73s or even Jaguar IS with Magic II) and won’t necessarily be good otherwise.

Also event vehicles can reach more people generally and if it is Gaijin test-bed for stealth, then that would also make sense.

I don’t know what I’m fearing more.

That it’s going to be delayed till next year or that our new rank VI would be rendered obsolete upon arrival by other new additions, maybe even Rank VII like Bismark

That’s not what the leak indicates though, and so far it’s been on the money. And while yes, Gaijin typically uses events for testing features, they only give a couple weeks of experimentation at most. They can’t exactly iterate on it like they can in the live game.

I don’t disagree it’s such a niche thing that it shouldn’t really take up a slot and a tech tree without being in a folder so that It can be bypassed

Didn’t you say before that Japan should have SK sub TT and that gameplay should be a priority than politics in video games?
Now that it’s your business, you’re saying something different.
It’s really funny : )

A leak also said the event ship Britain was getting was HMS Warspite despite everything else on the list being correct. HMS Barham was never mentioned.

They are never 100%. Until it’s added. We won’t know. I’d bet on event personally. That is all
