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

Why do the US and GB always receive so many vehicles per update…
Like, 4-5 on average.

There are nations who need the additions more then these already very good nations.

That is basically what we’ve been arguing for so it seems pretty confirmed

Its not currently planned to add AIM-9M. The aircraft will have AIM-9L + AIM-7P.

No HMD worked so well for the OCU that gaijin needed a part 2 electric boogaloo but at 14.0

Yeah, not april, i meant between april and june update. The summer one.
I’m not entirely trusting the info though. Something on the lines of Sherman pack or a russian t-34 three pack.
But that wont even be needed, so i dont really think that will happen

If it doesn’t get HMD it would be stupid to keep it at 14.0. Hell the Su-34 is 13.3 with almost a similar missile load. a HMDless 18C should at least be 13.7.

Remove flare, limit to 9L, limit to AIM-7E-2, 11.7 or 11.3

Smin has already stated it will only go down in BR if it does poorly. And if we want a F-18 with HMD they are going to skip MLU 1 and just add MLU 2 so the same BR as the F15EX because its more likely gaijin will add F18C with Aesa radar for the US at the same BR as the MLU 2

You’d like to think, but Smin basically said if it underperforms it can move down, which means its going live at 14.0 and if they eventually notice that it isn’t doing so hot, they might move it down to 13.7 whenever the next BR change is

The F-16A OCU should have shown them already that a jet without HMD will just perform poorly at 14.0, probably even 13.7.

You are clearly dumb clearly HMDless aircraft are on par with vehicles with HMD hur dur logic here^

Seeing how it takes forever for BR changes to happen, it’ll be unplayable for months.

The problem is the people who tend to play these horrible vehicles tend to go and get good KD’s where as in a vehicle with the better upgrades at the same BR can pull double or triple their worse KD. Its a trash system that needs to be reworked.

Yup, that is if the already starved Sweden player don’t do well in the first half decent jet they’ve seen for over a year

Are the devs considering to add the Aim-120C to match the R-77-1’s range capablities?

I pulled a positive KD with the SK-60 when it was 37k SL to repair at 7.7 air when the Su-11 was 7.0 and better in everyway. Ill manage with these horrific dumpsterfire just like the rest of the tree.

The problem with that logic is, if nobody plays it then it doesn’t change. There are like 7 swedish air players they don’t have the numbers to impact the BR’s
