Major Update “Tusk Force” - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

oh yeah i followed that one from up close

Manpads article-type of “explanation” and “reasoning”

Can’t wait to see what they’ll come up with for Asters, i’ve got my salty pop corn ready

Surely 1 day the devs realise that there answer makes less than 0 sense
Max Range 40km
Target has ro be 64km away for the missile to get to Mach 3

Also don’t understand why battle-passes aren’t made permanent since it would be new continual revenue source for Gaijin and a way for players who missed them either because of finances at the time, lack of time, or are just new to the game can still get the vehicles.

I’m sorry but Arrowhead figured out the recipe. War Thunders battle-passes could easily be condensed down to:

2-3 x vehicles (only one premium).
2 x profile pictures
2 x wallpapers
2 x titles
2 x 500% RP boosters (no expiration)
2 x 500% SL boosters (no expiration)
1 x 100,000 SL (for crew and module costs of said battle pass vehicles)

That’s it.

Costing anywhere between $25-45 depending on the highest BR of the vehicle. Or you can spend 5,000 to say 25,000 warbonds (by adjusting the limit). But they’re permanent so if you’re short on cash this time around, that’s okay, you can always come back to it.

I’ll have to take your word as I’m not familiar with Warframe’s system. But yes if so.

Because of the whole coupon marketplace.

even the buk is struggling to intercept missiles/bombs atm.

Let me guess Diehl advertise the missile speed as greater than mach 3.0 but they don’t give specifics.

With it’s made up missile variant it should do

funnily i feel like a sarh buk would end up being more accurate. with how badly they have modelled arh seekers for sams.

It would but can’t spam fire them all at once

Welcome back SACLOS.

even the sarh variant can be used on 12 targets at a time iirc.

my guess is that gaijin gave it ARH seekers (which are easier to defeat) so that they dont have to model multiple SARH missiles being guided at different targets

i wont be surprised if thats why they gave it 9M317MA. like we dont even have 2 variants of the missile like camm , camm-er. they just skipped straight to 9M317MA without 9M317M (when they kinda try their best to make stock grind worse) .

yeah, it is kinda weird that they didnt give the BUK more of its missiles

like at least the base SARH missile

Agreed. 9M317M and 9M317MA as the tier 3 mod

ig they will skip to arh/ir missiles for every sam if they cant find a solution to properly model the ability to have multiple hard locks.

We know that from the community update blog, developers are focused on adding more ESA aircrafts to every tech tree where possible.

But according to some Russian speakers, on a previous dev-stream developers have said they would like to add more MAWS aircraft to the game (presumably for every tech tree) before they add IIR missiles.

The only ones without a top tier aircraft fitted with MAWS in-game presumably are:

  • Russia
  • US
  • Japan
  • Sweden

What can they get that utilizes maws?
