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

I heard people said arietes getting fixed, no idea though, they also said smin said so but I cant be bothered to scroll a million posts

Playing British battleships(you know, most of the scores came from secondary guns), aircraft with BOLPODs and FPS games with battle rifles built peoples ability to spam clicks

Just tested the 18C with new counter count…they are single deployment! Even better! :)

While this is extremely offtopic most of the people that might find this interesting are here so I might as well. Mods don’t smite me.

single deployment even after bringing both flares and chaff?

Yes, one counter of each type is deployed if you have them set to deploy both chaff and flares

Gaijin is now considering having administrative buildings and other civilian infrastructures as viable bombing targets in the game, is this an ethical choice in the face of what’s going on in today’s world?

Factories and Oil refining are valid military targets in a war, especially if your talking abour ww2, the Allied bombing raid of the Romanian Oil fields comes to mind as a pretty historic example

If it’s being used for a military purpose or it is supporting military operations.

It’s a legitimate target

Factory/oil - sure

Administrative building - ummm not sure… sounds vague and a bit too civilian-esque

Residentials has always been a part of airfields in sim. After all, there are no civilians in this game.

Maybe the administrative building of the factory/refinery? I wouldn’t interpret too much into it as long as there don’t appear buildings like e.g. hospitals…

Airfield WW2

for ages now airfields had a living zone which was an objective you could bomb, so nothing new.

Hello! Sorry for bothering you; but, since this is related to an issue you’ve addressed, I figured it was appropiate to ask you for this;

Would you mind forwarding and pumping up this report? It’s the second part of the double-report which had its first part acknowledged, but not the second.

Since you instructed to re-make the report only with the second part, that’s what I did here;

hey there, sorta unrelated question to this but are Carriers getting back into top tier Air RB? i miss so much taking off and landing on them. now that we get the Hornet, are they making a return?

and can you also answer on why they where removed from top tier in the first place?

No, it isnt ethical. (Administrative building)
Eventhough its a game, its unethical in the IT-Ethical part.

Oil is ethical

They could have given US one BOL, so clearly intentionally withheld

Heya. I don’t know what will come to the future. It’s best to ask Smin about this
