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

Helicopter cockpits are still in progress. Those that dont make it this major will likely follow in future updates.

well, its not a no. satisfactory to me.
thanks mate

Got it

So…during its beta? And I disagree. Even when using premium vehicles and premium time, the time unlock most mid to top-tier takes entirely too long. Modification progres is also terrible.

What was/is the reason or explanation for adding two SPAAs that effectively double the range of everyone else? You have vehicles like the IRIS-T SLM and CLAWs topping out at 40km and the Buk 3M and Aster 70km and 100km respectively. Unless Gaijin is planning to raise the ceiling for ground vehicles to 14.0 and put those are the absolute max BR? The addition of those two vehicles doesn’t feel like the concept of balance was included in the decision.

@Smin1080p_WT Any chance we could see AGM-114K replace the 114B on the RAH-66 or see the BR dropped a bit? Currently it’s the same BR as the MH-60L DAP but with only 2 less Hellfires that have worse performance and no CM’s. The only thing the Comanche has going for it is its better FM (which doesn’t really make a difference in gameplay) and it’s slight stealth features. Not to mention 114B was not in service during the time the Comanche flew making it ahistorical.

The same thing was said about bomber cockpits.

Most nations received thier more modern platforms last major update. Those that didn’t had to wait until now. Range is not the only factor in the effectiveness of the platform.

In some cases, these were the closest equivalents for the nations receiving them to existing multi vehicle SAM units. For those nations much behind the top SPAAs, where its possible, other vehicles may feature in the future too.

Much like the previous generation of SPAAs, its never possible to have ranges be 1:1 as nations dont make direct equivalents in all cases.

Its not something currently planned for this major.

It wasnt actually. We were very clear why bomber cockpits would be mostly placeholder.

Naturally some may still come in the future. But it was not said in the same way we have for helicopters.

Can I just say please don’t give into the Chinese petty demands, you mentioned that once a sub is announced it’s assets can’t be moved. I’d would like that to stay as it is as it won’t be fair to other sub owners if you have a special rule for one community.

But going with this massive jump in range, could have seen more additions for those being outranged that are closer. Not to mention the Buk 2M has a range of 3km-45km which would have been in line with everyone else. Not to mention the ability to stay active on the battlefield after your control unit is destroyed. It seems like Gaijin is setting up another lopsided era much like when the Pantsir dominated for two years. Odd that its the same nation is it not? Not to mention most NATO or Western nations have or utilize a MIM-104 variant with 80-100km ranges that could have been added.

I’m just saying, if they want to play ball with these kinds of things then don’t cry when the lid pops off.
I’m sure the Americans are watching with great interest

its fine i doubt Chinese players made up a large part of the japanese in game players anyway so meh?

totally not as if most of the playerbase is sick of their consistent inconsistency lol

tbh idk abt that.

considering most chinese players ive talked to seem to despise japan i doubt they are a large part of their player base

given their… tragic history.
japan is to chinese what germany is to jews

but lets not bring up politics

Do I need to remind you about US aviators captured via the Japanese and their horrid treatment ?

That’s you bringing politics into the game. Most people don’t think about that. They play any tree that has good vehicles. I don’t like the actions of the Israeli government, it hasn’t stopped me playing the Israel tree.
