Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

Ive seen a lot of monday blogs though afaik its fairly common is it not?

My two cents for a first Dev Blog is USS Maryland;

Both a strong Dev Blog (in the sense that those interested on it will love it), and a weak one (since the volume of interested people would be lower for being Naval).

Perfect way to start the season; not too underwhelming, not too strong either.

With how little time between now and the expected release, I think its possible. Especially if we assume that the December update is the “big” update of the year.

If nothing else I can see something small, like a gameplay devblog (like changable fuses for HE-VT, I dont think thats been added yet but they said it was coming)

I thought they said it was coming with the last update but I tried to see how to swap them but didnt see anything (though didnt look that hard either) and I dont recall seeing anything about it in the patch notes

the complain is real, but I don’t agree the entire ASEAN tree removed part. I think gaijin mean a necessary addition from ASEAN to Japan, like Thai F-5 for CAS. because ASEAN is a huge area, with lots of different vehicles, it’s not possible or necessary to add/promise all these things and block others getting these. even not considering Russian, Chinese and US exported things, there are also some Israel modified vehicles which should go to Israel.
The whole thing is a bad decision of Gaijin, not knowing the player’s requirement and do things by an easiest way.
and most of the Chinese players didn’t ask for this, though this idea was proposed years ago, but never attracted attention before the leak.
The interview may have something to do with this. As far as I know, since China TT’s former data provider was impeached for been anti-nationalism(deliberately made Chinese vehicle worse), the position has been empty, and the information collecting job is done by random epiboly, means Gaijin actually can’t hear what Chinese plays want most of the time, so any personal voice that seems represents Chinese players can have some influence.

Allow me to introduce you to the Austrian Eurofighter

Clean and respectful with a little roundel flair, they also know how to take pictures so it doesn’t look like a beaver

If making more variants meant more variants in-game, we wouldn’t have 1 Super Etendard, no Mirage F1A, a small handful of Mirage IIIs and far more early jets than exist in-game

acting like im not happy about the E (one of my favorite jet ever), F111F (which i like), A10C (dont like it much personally but still a nice addition), and F-117 (love it even though its useless).

AV-8B (NA) is nice to see but only makes US high tier situation with premium spam worse.

its pretty unfair to compare a late 70s/early 80’s missile to a 90’s missile, same situation with AIM-120.

yeah they usually save the best for last

the only thing should be compared is the missile or vehicle’s ability in game, if they performance similar, then they have same br, not age

  1. the discussion was about japan putting better missiles on their F-15’s than US, which was pretty true for a while from 1991 to 2003 for IR, but they were equal in ARH missiles.

  2. the AAM-4 is pretty held back, its more of a 120C counterpart but is limited to perfroamce more in line with the 120A

Naval as well?

The only chance for the Red team to get a decent HMDS for pilots is probably through the Chinese Flankers 😭. Doesn’t look like Russia will be getting it anytime soon. Correct me if I’m wrong.
(J-16 pilot helmet)

I’m excited about how good Eurofighter Typhoon and Rafale pilot helmet will be? like Mirage-2000-RMV and A-10C or will be like JAS-39C? would love to use it in Sim mode.

Personally I’ve always preferred the earlier BoB livery, it doesn’t have the invasion stripes that imo kinda ruin the D-Day livery

Doesn’t look like for naval, unsure if the ground hotkey shares to naval.

Na this is the best looking camo for it, not into the flashy camos

Doesnt look like it works for naval, so thats a real shame, the main gamemode that would have benefitted from being able to swap HE-VT/HE-TF shells into regular HE wasnt added
