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

Eh…

I know they ahve a major backlog of approving pending suggestions. Ive got one up for improving air spawns in ARB so that people dont spawn inside each other. thats been pending for a few weeks.

But I asked a Suggestion mod about some of my old suggestions and was told that when they get forwarded is entirely subjective.

But even forwarded suggestions from years ago rarely actually make it to the game.

Yeah, that would be interesting.

Yeah was speaking a a suggestion mod the other week about some suggestions and they said there’s a backlog due to a few mods being on holiday and stuff.

Hopefully it starts to get sifted through soon. Got 13 suggestions pending with one being made back at the start of June.

I’ve got a few ideas for things to submit suggestions for but im not sure if i’ve got the motivation for it.

I’ve had a few that I thought were well written and similar to other suggestions i’ve seen (like new ASB objective ideas) get denied for no apparent reason. I wish suggestion mods had to give a reason for denying a suggestion.

Like I want to make a suggestion for A2A and A2G modes for aircraft. Being in a selected mode would limit you to radar, weapon and cockpit sight modes for that mode.

would make A2A combat a lot easier if you didnt have to cycle between a load of A2G weapons if you are running a mix.

But I just dont have the motivation to do it at the moment

Id start playing more WW2 props if they overhauled damage models.

Just really wierd being able to cut a heavy bomber in half with a few 20mm rounds.

It has always been quite easy to do well in the typhoon even long before the radar buff.

There is a reason why it was instantly and easily the second best top tier fighter after the Rafale at release.

In ARB, you could make the radar work by just using ACM and HMD modes. Sure.

But in my main gamemode, ASB, it was likely trying to fly blind. It was stupid. I spent 75% of the time just trying to get the radar to work. The only saving grace for those first 3 months was that redfor was entirely blind Typhoons as well. Though you were DOA vs a Rafale and fighting Su-30s sucked when they were added.

But I dont really see why that matters? It had a buggy radar that didnt work as it should. Just because it could use ACM and HMD Modes to mitigate the terrible TWS performance doesnt mean the TWS performance wasnt terrible.

Not actually tried the new radar out yet in ASB. I really dont see the point these days. Its a dead gamemode. But been playing it in ARB and its a lot better. You now officially have a radar in the Typhoon. Only took 8 months. Though, despite that fact. Its still got more buffs needed. especially if we are stuck with an M-Scan for a while and everyone else will have E-Scan

Protesting does work, despite Big Windmill lobbying war thunder they’re destructible again.

finally i can have some peace and quiet from the wind

(I do gotta wonder why they even did this change to begin with also TIL they were even destructible at all)

What are those 7 candidates?

Here

I wish updates had a bit more consistency, like knowing what country has priority next.

Ah I had been going through hundreds of messages

It’s so butchered and useless in its state I don’t blame you, even as an Israeli main I forget it exists now sometimes.

I love how you left out the arguably more interesting other half of it.

Wouldn’t one of these planes be disqualified due to lack of CMs? Can’t remember which one that is.

Hello, F1 had tested TopSight helmet and F2 had used AASM and GBU bombs, I’d be more than happy to share the evidence of this so hopefully it can be considered as future potential additions!
