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

I often see critics of adding Pereh cite the immense range of Spike NLOS making it too unbalanced to add.

As if our maps aren’t like… 3.6 x 3.6km at max (so when were you even going to use more than a fraction of that range anyway), and as if Spikes don’t have a weird obsession with aiming for the Roof MG and doing nothing lol.

Would be legit useless on Urban maps, but hilarious fun on open maps.

Reason why I don’t think the Pereh will be good is because Gaijin likely won’t give it NLOS stuff anytime soon. So it’ll just be a big slow Magach that has inconsistent missiles as it’s only defense.

Gaijin has already seen the effect that NLOS and LOAL spike style missiles had on random battles. Let’s just say it’s one of the experiences that stuck with them.

F-16C PoBiT (upgraded F-16CJ Block 50/52 to F-16C/D Block 70/72 standard) it probably separate Vehicle at new rank after F-16C Block 50, and equipped AN/AAQ-28 Litening Large Aperture (LA) targeting pod

I wait AIM-9M 2 sub block for air force and naval aircraft rank 8 in the winter update 2024

  • AIM-9M-8 (USN & USMC)
  • AIM-9M-9 (USAF)

Eurofighter when?

I think if we ever get NLOS, they will just make it functionally identical to how ER / LR currently operate. No LOAL, no man in the loop etc.

Would play like a gun-less Namer lol.

When the leaks says its not coming this year it probably meant for the december update which was delayed. I heavily doubt this however, its probably there are too much trouble on the current patch.
Notably it shouldve been out when the shooting range features the PLZ05, which quotes one of the newly added vehicle in the recent patch was the PLZ05.

You can pretend to be a magach. Thats why the pereh is based on a magach in the first place.

Roll around the corner, people think you’re a regular Magach and expect you to be useless.

But hah! You fools! The gun is fake!

I’m actually even more useless! 😂

I really hope there is a simulator mode update sometime soon. The maps are way to small at this point :( I hope there is stuff in the works to make more dynamic sim maps AND larger maps.

I’d bet four and half silver lions that we get the maintenance notification tomorrow, and update on chewsday.

I bet you 3 and 7/32 silver lions it’s Wednesday :3

Id just be fine if they delay the content until the next patch lol. Again, I think gaijin puts too much on the plate for this update, which is not supposed to be the big one. A lot of them are C&Ps but it can be said for every existing patch, and there are a lot of unique stuff especially for naval. Raytracing is probably the biggest problem, the game needs to maintain its status of being able to run any computer or not that knows how video game codes works.

Against my better judgement :

I think they should delay ray tracing for next update and give us the meat but tbh I also want the next update to just be a back end update where they fix a lot of bugs, fix fundamentally issues with different game modes, and update parts of the game engine from rendering tanks and planes at further ranges and stuff like that and large scale balancing changes in both air and ground. (increasing br caps again :3)

not everybody can handle this update whit limited cpu or pc…

I couldn’t handle this update and I have a very good computer ;-; I went from averaging 150-200 fps to getting no more than 70-80 and having bad frame stutters with only changing the settings to DX12

I will be very inclined to turn on raytracing since my new PC is much better than the old one. But on the other side, I do think that gaijin is making a bit of a blunder to go with raytracing, since most people who really wants to tryhard will still run ULQ even when they have RTX4090.

Gaijin is probably working on the Chinese sub tree

Just like other games I have played that have ray tracing its really cool… for 5 seconds then you only notice it every once and awhile. The only thing I would personally care about is increasing the resolution of the mirrors in aircraft.
