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

Well Cyberpunk 2077 is £25 on steam right now, a much better purchase

While I disagree with the pricings of gaijin these are unironically not the best comparison.

Think about this for a second.

China will get ASEAN.
Which means Indonesia as well.

Indonesia mostly operated Dutch vehicles for their navy, ground and air, especially during WWII.

Which means, we will get Dutch vehicles in the Chinese TT.

Honestly considering it closes at 7AM they could release the Update at 8 and be done with it. Thurs or Fri would be more reasonable though.

what does this stuff do

I would like a scimitar.
On the other hand, even when thinking about Pakistan, most of the western designs it owns can be found in Taiwan as well. SEA is similar on this case.

I disagree that Gaijin only cares about their one time buyers, then about their long playing playerbase.
Like me.

I’ve been playing this game for over 8 years now, playing every single nation, while having NO voice in the community.

I really think that players like these, like me, and so many others who have over 5000 hours in this game, should have a slight say in this game.

Because at this paste, they will lose more and more long term players, who provide a steady income for the game.

Instead of a one time purchase with mommy and daddy their creditcard and then leaving the game forever. Indirectly ruining the game for us with one-death-leaving, terrible vehicle stats resulting in a lower br then needed - like the T-72 turms and 2S38.

where?

I’m going to need a lot of context here. Like ALL OF THE CONTEXT.

Also what is this?

Why do they all come under soviet banner?

Boy, I wonder why they’d think that when their competition uses those prices:

“But, but! DCS has advanced radar controls!”
And they don’t have the free vehicle selection of War Thunder, or decal/decoration/skin collection of War Thunder.

my bad i was looking at some stuff, its some changes to the Su-27 specifically, though the other variants were also changed.

How they are grouped in the files is pretty much meaningless

Yeah I’ve been doing the same thing.
I main Germany with 8.3 Ground, but I’ve also been playing 5.7/6.0 Chinese Ground which has been loads of fun.

Germany is my main, but I do play other nations to try different playstyles and to also take a break from a specific nation if need be.

If I had to compare both China and Germany at 5.7/6.0, they’re both great in their own aspects.

It’s kinda hard to give a proper assessment.
Germany is incredibly strong, but German team mates are the bane of my existence, but they focus on long range and sniping at that BR.
Where as in China has the M18, T-34-85s, M36, and the Chinese Bulldog, which that lineup alone allows for either Flanking, Sniping, or Brawling if you want to.

TLDR:
It’s nice to be playing different nations at the same time in order to experience different play styles and recognize weakspots

It’s just my personal opinion only

If gajin add AIM-120C-3, AIM-120C-5 & AIM-120C-7 AMRAAM

Might be F/A-18A+ or F/A-18C+ for USA tech tree

Su-30M2, my guess.

EF-2000 T1 Blk 2 or Blk 5 for germany & italy

But gajin could add swiss F/A-18C U21 or U25 before EF-2000 Trance 1 ?

F-16A ADF 12.7 → 14.0

  • AIM-7M replace with AIM-120B & AIM-120C-5

JAS39C EBS HU 13.7 → 14.0

  • AIM-120C-5 & AIM-120C-7 replace AIM-120A

Typhoon DA2 or F.2

Gripen C (SAAF) increase max BR to 14.0, IRIS-T instead AIM-9L & AIM-9M Sidewinder but removed R-Darter

Another fighter aircraft 13.3 ~ 13.7 from IAF or SAAF before Gripen C

Rafale M F1, maybe

Mirage 2000-5F change BR to 14.0 and add MICA IR but removed Super 530F & 530D

Belgium F-16AM MLU to 14.3 if add AIM-9X

JAS39E (Early) because equipment like JAS39C Gripen but different radar. My guess.

JAS39C Gripen C change battle rating to 14.3 and RB 98 (IRIS-T) instead RB 74 (M)

F/A-18C MLU 1 or MLU 2 (FI)

J-11B at 14.0 and located after J-11A, but J-10B would be 14.3 BR

Add PL-8B on J-10A (Early) and change BR to 14.0

BR 14.0 ? Ah yes

AIM-9M (stock) and move to tier I modification instead AIM-9L, add Python 4 and AIM-120B replace with AIM-120C-5

F-2A (Early) (J/APG-1 AESA radar) or F-2A Late (J/APG-2 AESA radar), I’m not sure

F-15J (M) battle rating to 14.3 and AAM-5 instead AIM-9M

That’s where you’re wrong; you’re comparing the games and not the models.

Yeah, you’re paying $80 for an F-4E, or F-16C, or an F/A-18C, but you get a well-detailed, highly immersive, and authentic model of a vehicle that you like and that you’d like to fly out in a simulator.

You mean the radar set, which was already addressed.
The flight model will be on-par.
And DCS forces you to use controls that aren’t mouse and keyboard.
You can see how much I own on DCS, and War Thunder’s already adding a more immersive F-15E than DCS, War Thunder’s will have better engines too.
