He quite litterally said “chance for a dev blog is low, but not/never zero”.

Where exactly did you read that there definitely wouldn’t be any dev blogs this week?

The only thing you can consider as being overtuned is lack of AoA limiter. In the environment where every jet pulls more Gs than it could IRL having F-16 with realistic G limit is completely out of place honestly.

I mean it’s pretty much the best ratefighter IRL so why should it be different in the game?

Its itr should be limited yet it outperforms m2k and mig29. The real f16 is limited to 36° aoa at maximum and only within specific circumstances, yet in game it pulls just north of 40° of aoa and has zero stability problems.

I’m not a “russia-boo” I have the entire u.s. tree and have like rank 2 in ussr. I’ve simply played both and the f16 is overperforming massively in the aoa department. Unless the f16 can just out aoa the m2k and mig29 irl, oh wait It doesn’t even come close. Meanwhile captian freeaboo over here is defending this bs fm. Idc about the turn rate, its the aoa that’s the problem.

He said “don’t expect any dev blogs this week, but who knows what happens. And if there is one you can be happily suprised” between the lines.

Which is far closer than your “yeah not going to happen” description.

Smin saying the chamce is never zero, is covering his ass if by the off chance a dev blog gets ready and released and people would “call him a liar” if he completly denied them. Just basic business talk

Yeah if there is a dev blog he can tell people to be pleasantly suprised.

Not that people will be pleasantly suprised of course, because the blog will be about a boat, or a tank, or a plane, or about a low rank vehicle, or about a high rank vehicle, or about a map, or about a mid rank vehicle, or…

Im a Germany and Sweden main and I do not want the MiG Buffed or the F-16 Nerfed

I just want it to behave like it should

besides that it’s not like a slightly worse Manoeuvrability will make it absolutely unusable

Low, if not zero.

We have just very recently received the Hungarian subtree for Italy, so another subtree this soon is unlikely. Also the only current indication we have of a Thai subtree is the suggestion being passed, which if it even means anything, would also mean that Gaijin needs time to get it ready, which wouldn’t be this fast.

Japan will likely be the next nation to get a subtree and I personally think Thailand is most likely, but it’ll probably be a few updates before we can start expecting to see it.
