Major Update "Hornet Sting" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 4)

Hence quotation marks.

seems like a preference in tech trees to me honestly.

when the devs were researching the RS to be made they cant not have spotted that Britain was in greater need of that British made vessel than the russians. This was a deliberate choice which would have obviously caused controversies and ignored the tree inbalances

I know, was just adding to it.

Burnt update lmao

yea but the hopkins is an obscure tank. the Rapier system and especially the tracked rapier is far from being obscure as it was a major part of britains air defence for decades.

like I said :

Eh. A waste, the words “Quality of life” are again being used for something not a single sentient person asked for and instead of some love for the old existing stuff and maybe a solid balance patch we get omega trash ( in general, probs the only things i like r the low tier additions).

Tbh, this is kinda pure cope from you. Your just making stuff up and whenever I point any of it out you just say “what would you know” or some stuff like that.

The MLU 2 will not be the higher BR than a late USMC hornet that I would assume it would come with.

Unless it gets 9X and AIM-120C-7 or D, it’s not being F-22 BR either

New boats are huge steps up from their original models so definitely a plus. But yeah this update is essentially pandering to the US and Russia while giving the middle finger to basically everyone else. Couldn’t even nodel the 50 cal on my Rapier, unless its been change since last i saw.

We don’t only focus on the fame of a given vehicle as it’s criteria. There are plenty of examples of famous vehicles for a given nation that came after thier BR was not at the top.

Was more so making fun of the fact that gaijin essentially refuses to add higher BR’s for vehicles unless the community screams loud enough. I mean we have multiple examples of times where the .3 BR change was not enough for that statement to be entirely true.

You also forget how likely it is for gaijin to leave the US Hornet late C model at 14.0 and add the E model to fill the role while the MLU 2 sits at the same BR as the E or a Late C with AESA because the MLU 2 will likely have 9X

@Smin1080p_WT it’s 2 in the morning and it’s Tuesday. How can you do this 😭

That’s precisely why HMS Rodney was added in the same Major update and Warspite the update after.

Not to mention, as already stated, other Revenge Class ships are possible for the British tree. Let alone further BBs in general. Russia has a much more limited pool of Battleships.

Would be boring to only have the most famous examples. We wouldn’t have fox or T77e1 if that was the soul focus. Taking the better part of a decade to fill gaps in trees with the vehicle the playerbase has asked for to specifically fill that gap is a strange order of priority.

That’s precisely why we don’t just have the most famous and why many other vehicles from all over are given their chances.

A playerbase can have many different wants and requests that also change over a long period of time. Vehicles take long periods of time to work into plans and make a reality.

Sadly other players just can’t seem to respect that here, btw I’m stealing that

Ok, fair enough

I know it’s gotten busy here, but would you mind answering this?

Is this planned for all US aircraft that can use it (F-15E, F-16C, AV-8B+, A-10C) or just the hornet?

Also, do you guys plan to give EGBU to US? Iirc, we did use them, and they are also apparently compatible with F-117.

As always, thanks for all you say/do

why was warspite an event vehicle if it remedied the issue we both see, what is gaijins game plan once every ship has been exhausted on being an exclusive event vehicle nobody can later acquire.

that’s cool for them, they’ve still got a more fleshed out tech tree including a vehicle which is needed in its native tree. 5 battleships vs our 2 at 7.0.

RS is the most notable after the class nameholder HMS revenge. The placement just comes off dodgy

The hornet report is currently the one under review. But it can be suggested for all types that used it if / when it comes to the game.

Similarly with EGBU, suggestion reports are welcome for any aircraft that can use it.
