Smin is not required to answer every single question especially when they are questions for the devs, he gets pinged like 200 times a day, he moderates the forum from all you hooligans who go offtopic every 3 minutes.
i dont see why they dont just do the same thing they did with the magic 2 and just gimp it and slowly add its features over time
Why get F-16V when USAF F-16C have been upgraded to that standard and more? Same weapons you said but from USAF
Well I guess it depends what you ask about
You gotta see it from their perspective, is this something Smin knows the answer to, and if he does, is he allowed to say?
And if he doesn’t know, is it important enough to warrant chasing a dev for an answer? It could also be that there simply isn’t time to do this?
Maybe because those silly questions are very easy to answer
I agree decompression is an important issue, but again, Smin is not a dev. He probably doesn’t know. In all likelihood, the best he can say is “wait for official news”.
It may feel like that, but I almost guarantee that’s not the intent. I believe Smin is trying his best.
My advice would be to be persistent but polite. Maybe try again some other time of day. You will get an answer eventually.
Opinion. That is why.
update when?
when all the bugs are ready
But there’s genuinely no point to add f16v to tech tree, maybe as a event squadron or premium, but for tech tree there is a USAF equivalent which is what should be added to tt.
As for F-16 block 60 it could go between f16c blk50 and f16c PoBIT (BLK 70 equivalent) or come as sqv/event/prem
That’s an issue, not an issme.
Why do you specifically want f16v as US end of line f16 anyway?
A better question is why are you so vehemently against it?
Need the F-16z surely to be the end of line. Unless the US adds more letters to the alphabet so they can make more F-16 variants :D
I’m not against F-16V come to US just not as a tech tree or if it is tt, then foldered. The USAF does not operate F-16V, HOWEVER, we have upgraded some of our F-16C to f16v standard with an even better EW suite on top of that
That would be much better fit for the United States air tree than like a ROCAF F-16V
F35 replace F-16C, but F-16Z will replace F-35
The F-16V is more unique than the F-16C, and I dislike “early” and "late’ names.
They could call it F-16 PoBIT or F-16C PoBIT
They could have called the F-4F Peace Rhine and Tornado F.3 AOP by their names, yet they didn’t, so there’s not much reason to believe it’d be any different here.
Fair enough, if the V does come it should be a folder under than PoBIT so the main tt one is USAF but anyone who specifically wants the V can get it for half the RP
