Major Update "Ninth Wave" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

any news on Rank 9 for Research Nation Isreal? There was a lot of speculation before december patch especially with inclusion of Greece (blk70?)

Not this major update. As we mentioned, Greece was a longer term consideration.

You know, I’m curious about that. What exactly is the issue with having both Royal Sovereign and Arkhangelsk in-game? Is there a technical limitation that means we can only have one and not the other, or is it just a dev decision? Just curious, as I know other games like WoWs generally tend to implement ships with similar situations (including Arkhangelsk and Royal Sovereign themselves) at once, with seemingly no issue.

Russia gets novorossiysk, Italy doesnt get Giulio Cesare. its a dev thing.

Since the beginning of Naval Blue water there is a rule that there can only be one version of a named ship. So there cannot be multiple versions of the same ship. Sister ships of the class sure, but not an existing named ship.

problem is, there isnt one.

america jumped straight to stealth fighters, once raptor and f35 are in game things will be more even

Royal Sov being placed in the USSR tree when having a much more notable life as a british ship compared to when she was neglected by the soviet navy will never not be a bad choice by gaijin.

As naval is mixed nation battles already it really isnt a huge deal if captured and loaned vessels appear in a couple trees.

what’s a dev server?

??? I cant tell if this is a joke or not lol

Just a server for the devs, not us lol

Arkhangelsk is one of the few battleship choices the Soviet tree can have. Meanwhile the British tree has no shortage and has many future options open.

Hey just an additional question relative to the topic, are there any plans to move GRB airfields on certain maps that have flat terrain, back from top tier SPAA range? There are some that allow an aircraft spawn directly in AA range, just curious

Btw, is it planned (or at least considered) for Rank IX aircraft to be given a better stock experience (like stock chaff)?

Smin is there ANY possible big buffs for my beloved challenger 2 this update

Also been playing the f16c 52 I’m a fan, however as always its good at what it was designed to be capable of so when in 4v4’s or 1 v3-4’s it works brilliantly but sadly when transitioned to live I see it being an unenjoyable hellhole to stock grind and play for fun, if playing solo at least.

None within this update, but its best to report those that are so they can be reviewed for consideration.
