Yeah I was talking about the CM disclosure when I was saying we would get “it” this week, since my last comment was me hoping for the CM disclosure.

Cool, Hoping they have addressed the things people were talking about in the last test.

It is all still WIP and subject to change, so hopefully they keep the 1980s bracket split between 11.3-12.0 and 12.0-13.0 like last time.

Because they state it as the “event” BR and specifically in the notes you see there is because they change AI vehicles , different set from 11.0 and below (from 10.3 ?) and different from 11.3-13.0. Theoretically they will make another era 13.3-14.7 (of AI vehicles , which will be 2 brackets in player vehicles) .
Not for player vehicles , but for the AI vehicles sets they will be used in the maps.
For player vehicles it happened once to have 13.0 to 14.7 , but in the next phase they had 4 brackets , split in 2 eras (of AI vehicles) . Now you’ll have 3 eras of AI.
Now from 11.0 and below you’ll have a '70s preset , and probably they will split 10.3-12.0 to 10.3-11.0 (70s preset AI vehicles )and 11.0-12.0 ('80s preset AI vehicles) . And from what i see from this “9.7 and below : M163” means it will probably go lower…

I don’t like this 70s version. Setting the dividing line at 11.0 would be a disaster. The Russian aircraft have a large amount of 80s ammunition, while the NATO forces even lack 11.0 aircraft. 10.7 or 11.3 would be a better option.
Day 18 of asking for: (i) the next steps update following the end of the test run & (ii) an accurately scheduled return of Nuclear Escalation :)

I can’t believe it! Finally it’s back…
I just had an idea, gonna put this in the survey but I wanna share it here as well:
Escalation levels should be linked to losing tickets.
It would work by giving the losing side access to nukes first based on escalation levels, so once they lose x amount of tickets, the next escalation level should be unlocked.
The opposing side would unlock that escalation level once the equivalent nukes have been used by the side who originally unlocked them, instantly upgrading them to the same escalation level, and/or once they themselves lose a sufficient number of tickets.
This way, it feels more like an actual escalation, and not just different phases of a game mode.

Let’s voice our interest fellas :)
So you everyone gets a free nuke because they’re playing bad? I don’t like that.
The current system works well and rewards you for playing good and also gives a single individual a lot of importance.
Now I noticed that in BR 8.7-11.0 (BR range of next nuclear escalation) we have (USSR) only planes with 2x ARM. We should start pushing for the MiG-25BM with 4x Kh-58U. :D
