Major Update "Firebirds" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

That is fair, I think we both want Gaijin to run out of stuff for its current top-tier focus.

But unlike your gameplay want, I want them to run out so focus could be put back on WW2/low tier.

Tho I wouldn’t mind gameplay so things like self-propelled artillery could be used as artillery.

That, and also a crazy number of cold war stuff to add.

I think both could be done simultaneously. I imagine right now they are spending a lot of time and resources developing all these new mechanics for top tier weaponry and radars etc. Once all this is done, and once top tier has most of its mainstay additions. The vehicle addition focus could divert alot more towards low / mid rank stuff, and the backend type work could divert alot more towards overall gameplay QOL.

Man WW1 stuff would be so cool. I wonder how they would go about adding it though.

Do they make this stuff reserve / tier I and push everything else up a rank ? Do they make a separate tree like Coastal?

Hey, it seems we have a good pretender for the “DF105 dickmove 2.0” !
That would be illarious !

Some additional changes related to AC 's in the latest update.

They would have to make it a separate TT with a separate MM in order to keep the balance. It’s either that or they push everything else up by atleast 3.0 Brs. Plus, even the worst reserve aircraft are miles better than the best WWI fighters.

Not OSA-AKM, OSA-AK-M, different variant.
Besides other variants they got are also older OSA-AK

The SA-25 VERBA 9K333 uses the missile 9M336 with a new multispectral optical seeker which uses three sensors - ultraviolet, near-infrared, and mid-infrared - as opposed to the dual-waveband infrared used in the Igla-S system.

The SA-25 VERBA 9K333 uses the missile 9M336 with a new multispectral optical seeker which uses three sensors - ultraviolet, near-infrared, and mid-infrared - as opposed to the dual-waveband infrared used in the Igla-S system. This allows getting more information about the purpose which makes the portable anti-aircraft missile system more selective and sensitive. Increased sensitivity rises the range of the real target lock. The multispectral sensor enables faster discrimination between appropriate targets and decoys and decreases the chance of disruption from infrared countermeasures, including high-power flares and lasers. Its reaction time is within 8 seconds, and its warhead has gained 1.5 kg more weight – an increase of 20 percent. Three sensors are counterchecking each other, neutralizing aerial decoy systems. The seeker is picking out the decoys, selecting real target, which has the smallest thermal signature. The seekers sensitivity has been increased by eight times. As a result, the range of acquisition and elimination of aerial targets has been expanded by two-and-a-half times (compared to Igla-S MANPADS). The missiles jamming resistance has been increased by 10 times. The Verbas missile maximum range has been increased to 6 km due to the installation of a new jet engine. 9M336 missile has a flight ceiling of 3,500 m. Verbas full ready-to-shoot weight (including the launching unit, SAM and battery) is 17.25 kg (38 pounds).

Thank you very much. What is the GE cost / convert cost? Just tell me how much GE is one mod from each tier pls.

GBU-12 is now the stock weapon of the F-117, replacing the Mk 82 500lb.

Is the modifications on Ra’am (Besides AGM65’s) identical ?

Also, Why are we still giving top tier’s AIM-9L as a modification lol. Serves absolutely no purpose other than grind inflation.

It does not seems right. F16C Aim9L is 9000RP but it is 400GE

Just put the cursor over the mod?

You can’t do that if you don’t have the vehicle unlocked.
