Cant Smin deleted his posts and many of my own from that forum because if you read it. Its basically a sharks pool
Theres a few where you see us reply to him and it leads nowhere. Again he had to delete stuff because it made him/gaijin look bad or led down rabbit holes.
Too late monkeys paw effect. The US complained about the F15I and so now gaijin may be looking at essentially holding back everyone else instead of just making them on par. Its just a poor decision all around. Already told people if you want a good Finnish F-18 just go download a skin on the live and play the US models.
Well since I haven’t seen them you will have to understand why I won’t comment on that part.
But saying that imho all variants should be added tho it would be like missing some variants of the Spitfire.
I mean 139 people isn’t the most but thats not a small amount and considering the nordic TT has a very small amount of people who actively talk about it id consider our opinion should hold some right to at least make the devs reconsider.
Understandable, again its a ****show every time he talks because he dodges our questions and blatantly tells us the the devs dont care. If we were to have him talk about it again like that day you’ll see him delete posts because he has to. He says one thing and it leads to more anger. Ask most of the active members in that conversation and they’ll tell you the same thing. Smin had to delete stuff because the entire thing is clearly a terrible decision but the snails gonna stand by it regardless.
Its again a pool of sharks and nothing except what we want to hear would actually make people happy.
Again for right now the only non deleted info is my questioning asking about both MLU 1 and 2 and Smin stating only one is planned along with his older reply that the next model will be one with A2G. You cant put MLU 1 between the MLU 2 and the 1994 model because theres no room without either the MLU 1 being the same BR as either the MLU 2 or the 1994
To be fair most of the deleted posts are him referring to the unique options are placed whenever possible which immediately turned into a cesspit of people calling him out.
The Mig 21 bis on Finland is just a basic Mig 21 Bis(without bombs for historical accuracy but other nations get bombs for balance… idk lmao)
If this whole logic of we try to add unique vehicles when possible was true we would’ve gotten MGBT with ECM pod/CM pod (just let it have extra CM’s and it had the ability to use AIM 9E. Yet again that wasn’t chosen so i get why he deleted his post because it was just a flat out lie lol.
Realistically gaijin essentially screwed Finland over because of compression the F-18C current should be 13.7 and the MLU 1 should be 14.0. MLU 2 could come later and gaijin could add foldered versions of the MLU 1 and 2 with and without 9X and late Fox 3 so that multiple gaps could be filled if they were actually worried about running out of vehicles for Finland. Since Gripen NG/E and F-35 are all thats left.
This is why I support Sweden becoming a regional nation rather than one country one sub, but it does seems like Norway is being on track to becoming a sub
Eh norge and danmark would only fill the (and a actual 5.x fighter for once in the entire TT god i would kill for a spitfire since it gets boring using 4.7’s at 5.7 in a full uptier) 8.x-9.x bracket which is regarded as essentially hell by most who’ve actually played the TT. Outside that we both use essentially the same F16’s with the Norwegians using Penguins. If sweden were to get a 5th airline a united line like Benelux with danmark and norge would make the most sense. Combine our vehicles and give both nations camos so one isnt left out. You would give sweden decent 9.x fighters and the beautiful CF-104 from Norway and the 13.x bracket would finally have an option between CAS and CAP since Gripen A only has AGM 65A for CAS and skyflash for CAP with 9m whereas the C has AGM65G and Aim 120. Would be a huge benefit but i see many people disliking that.
Realistically its more likely Sweden will get F 35 from Danmark and CF-104 from Norge as those are the more unique vehicles that fill gaps and a penguin firing F16 would be hated on by the US players. Ill take whatever honestly.
