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

I love the pink tornado and it is the only reason I might grind the UK lol.

I just had to look the colours up, because I couldn’t believe that it could be a shade of pink.
Apparently it is “Desert Pink Sand”

It was used in dessert storm as a form of camouflage

Isn’t that the same shade the Desert Rats used since like WW2 on the Land Rover Gun car things?

Not sure, I was just remarking on how the colour doesn’t look like a pink at all to me

It’s a very saturated pink, but still a pink matcha the sand perfectly and was one of the best camos in dessert storm

Want infantry? Play Enlisted. The AI staying on the point ruins the game.

Lmao xD
Offcourse its for the premium Version xDD

But thats also interesting since tje Skin has an spanish Flag on it hehe

Who’d have thought, playing the objective helps you win, lmao.

Also artillery barrages would be way more useful now, imo.

Some more of Black Bess

I am in love with this skin. Absolutely loved her Battlefield 1 and Through Mud and Blood story.

Yeah, playing the objective wins. Having bots stay on the point does nothing but encourage camping.

Because guess what, if you only have a Conquest game. First person to the point automatically wins, because all they have to do now is spawn camp you and you cannot do a thing about it. At least before you could attempt to flank and save the game last second. Now you have to spend your sweet time machine gunning, and by God if the game glitches out and there’s an invisible AI soldier. Congratulations, it’s an instant loss, you might as well just return to hanger. Same thing with Domination: without the bots, you have the ability to save the game last second. Now all we need to do is capture the point and spawn camp, and you cannot do anything about it.
Oh, and let’s not mention how useless most tank destroyers are going to be, especially since ISU doesn’t get a machine gun, neither do most turretless tank destroyers/self propelled guns. Oh, and what about SPAAs that could potentially flank and capture an objective in time due to their speed like the ItO 90. Now they can’t capture objectives without wasting all eight missiles. Same with the Tor and HQ.

There is absolutely zero need for AI soldiers beyond some “immersion” which is absolutely absurd. Want realism? Ukraine needs your help, boyo. America is on the brink of revolt. Israel needs you to fight their wars. I’m sure the African warlords would be happy to have another soldier oppress a village. Plenty of real war stuff going on, so pack your bags and get the Ground Realistic match that you surely want.

  1. It’s an event, they’re going to work that out.
  2. This is a dynamic change to the game. Maybe more people will decide to push caps, and try to take caps back, and perhaps focus on using other resources in the game such as artillery barrages, or maybe even using the vehicle’s hull as a weapon (if you catch my drift). It also makes HE even more useful, can bring in a reason to have canister rounds, and allows tanks like the BMP-2M to use it’s grenade launcher to actually be useful.
  3. However it affects the game, it affects the game. No point in crying about it. Tank destroyer doesn’t have a MG? Stay away from infantry. Easy.
  4. Further, they will likely have segregated game modes, so you can play without the infantry. I personally will probably play both modes, but infantry will inevitably make the game much more protracted, and I’d rather choose if I’m going into that or not. Difference is, I don’t want to download a second client unless it’s for an upgrade to Enlisted that brings modern infantry.

LASTLY. I’m an American, I’d never serve in the Ukrainian armed forces (gross), nor would I join any army at all (I have a wife and kids), including my own (US). Sure as hell aren’t dying for Israel, and neither Africa.

Me saying you should get used to the change and be creative and count on the devs to implement this in a way the community likes hardly warrants your vitriolic spat about serving abroad because we have a difference in opinion.

this is a separate issue unrelated to infantry. We don’t have a BF1 style operations dynamic map like we see in enlisted which (until endgame) removes spawncamping from really existing.

load HE or use your coax MG.

Enlisted is a good game but it doesn’t quite hit the notes it ought to. Ai staying on a point doesn’t ruin the game. It means you have to actually work for a point instead of sitting still for 30 seconds

this is a big reason for why I like the concept of infantry being in WT. make IFVs and infantry tanks more worthwhile.

The idea that I could play almost any IFV, dump infantry, even if AI, and keep moving sounds exactly like what the vehicles were intended for, and makes the game that much more interesting imo.

agreed. I want my CVR platforms and battle taxis to actually be able to work as CVRs and battle taxis.

It doesn’t need to be in the game, I don’t know who the hell wanted such a stupid idea, but they need to be studied because I haven’t heard an idea that stupid since they decided to allow CAS into GROUND battles. It’s pointless and is going to ruin the game. “Oh just machine gun” yeah, brilliant idea, if only Tank Destroyers, missile carrying SPAAs, and SPGs thought of that. What a great way to make them even more pointless. What’s the meta going to be?

I seriously don’t understand how you don’t realise how stupid this idea is. I seriously don’t get it. There is no reason for AI to be in the game. But hey, anything to make this game die faster. It’s not like people are already mass quitting because of how ineffective Gaijin has been with implementing a stable game. Oh, and I know I’m going to be reported because I dare called out how unstable War Thunder has been. I can’t question the Snail nor call out their stupid ideas as exactly that: stupid ideas. Soldiers don’t need to be in GRB. Soldiers don’t need to be in Sim. They don’t need to be in the game.
