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

I can’t recall, will F/A-18C Late have HMD at least?

Another terrible update from gaijin, Idk why I even expect them to add anything decent… britain gets another 10.0 spaa upping the count to 5, Israel gets legit just 1 copy paste premium, japan gets some boats and no 14.0 jet, Italy gets a copy-paste ariete and new aphe rounds… what the hell…

I wish it was also the case for stupid event.

Angry look at the Strasbourg

If i ever read another soviet cope comment about the Su-30 or the R-77-1s struggling after all the care they’ve been given in this update, they in fact start to deserve some bullying.

China nas has 4 vehicles not foldered in a single line, wasn’t that supposed to not be a thing anymore?

@Smin1080p_WT here are the following associated bug reports on this issue:

Reported: (in English)
https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/4H8FzrJQIPvn

Accepted Suggestion: (not in English)

Please don’t let it be this way, this would easily be the worst updates ever for the Israeli tree if so. They’re supposed to be the same, don’t sell the bug fix…

im not that new but i know your meaning
the su30sm is the most russian bias even seen,before this op aircraft NATOs are able to fight against russians fairly,or at least not undefeatable.
su30sm enables russians can be brainless kh38 thrower in su30sm and su34,coz one is fighter one is attacker this could be deadful and durable
Imagine there is one guy launching 12 kh38,why not just letting NATO surrender at first before they battle?

oh but dont worry America and Russia get new top tier jets and Russia can club even harder in top tier ground with the Su30SM now getting KH38MTs and a thermal pod, what was the balance reason behind not giving us brimstone 2s again?

Welp, looks like the Harry Hopikens and the new graphics for the maps are all there is for me in this update.

I’ll be back to see if the Russian stream has something interesting else, eh.

Alright thanks!

I like how “U.S mains” are bashed over AIM-9M and AIM-120 or getting lots of planes, but RU players are the ones who actually complain every time.

They claimed R-60 suffered against AIM-9E.
They claimed R-60M suffered against AIM-9J.
They claimed R-27ER suffered against AIM-7F.
They claimed R-73 suffered against AIM-9L.
They claim R-77 suffers against AIM-120A.
And just like that, I’ve already read complaints that R-77-1 will continue to suffer…
They even made a huge drama about AIM-9M for “being way better than R-73”!

Somehow, their missiles are always the worst and most suffering ones while American ones are always the best ones; and somehow, no matter how many or how much better missiles they get, it’s never enough.

The same way they claimed that T-80BVM suffered against even base M1A1, and that they needed Object 640 because “even T-90M was trash” and “Abrams were OP”.

Russia always suffers, and U.S is always OP. Yet the ones who always get trashtalked are “U.S mains”.

The update is so annoying that I can think of 4 or 5 different immediate changes.

F-18s to the attacker line
Israel getting the F-16 fixed
Do not remove G-5 boat
Naval BR to 7.3 or 7.7 (assuming leaks are real)

Plus the Germany somehow getting the AMD.35

What do the developers consider, “comparable aircraft”?
