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

Double the rate of fire though.
Badger has the same/similar fire rate as the Warrior

It’s poor against aircraft and low damage against everything else. It also has far too much dispersion for the firing mode it is in.

As i stated before yes fire rate is horrible but id prefer mobility myself. If i cant get a good spot or angle fast enough my fire rate means nothing anyways. Both the Badger and 9030 have no right to be in the 9.x bracket imo as they lack any real capability to warrant that BR. Now does the badger have the ability to track aircraft? I know the CV9030 doesn’t l, just another reason to avoid it. Not that 100 rpm with the badger is gonna be as good even with air tracking (if it has it.)

Also just gonna say all the 30mm bushmasters have horrendous dispersion for a gun thats well known for its accuracy. Again from what ive seen the Badger has the same dispersion that the rest of the 30mm Bushmasters have but i could be wrong.

While you are continuously heavily under estimating it. So I guess that balances out.

Is replying broken?

I will say if they fix its Radar it would be amazing but there have been so many time where I cant detect never mind track a jet flying straight at me its ridiculous both at ranges like 20km even all the way down to 4km

They just need to revert all the top tier radars to their pre TWS- release state and redo the EFT radar from scratch like people already said.

What?

That’s what we need but it’s probably not going to happen

You know what else is massive?

Your mom?

So. I wonder how long we need to wait for Soyuz level paper ships to be added to all other nations. Top tier naval is now officially dead once again, because the devs added an OP ship to a single nation.

When will they ever learn how to actually add balanced additions


@Smin1080p_WT , I know this is a topic that’s been talked about a lot over the past 7 months, but since there hasn’t been any improvement, it’s worth to refresh. Do we know if they’re fixing or developing the Captor-M radar soon? Because it’s by far the worst top tier radar right now. The fact that it takes 5 seconds or even more to lock with HMS PD and ACM PD is disappointing for the technology the Captor-M should have.

Hello

Several reports concerning Captor have been fixed since the aircraft launched.

Its best to report specific individual issues separately and with any clips or evidence auch as this so they can be passed to the devs for review: Community Bug Reporting System

Any issues already reported with thier own seperate report thats been accepted are naturally not in need of duplication.

After 7 months, I think the devs should just admit they cant fix CAPTOR-M (Heck they tried for a second time to give it GMTI and it completely gorped the radar so much so they had to remove it entirely again) that they should just replace it with CAPTOR-E.

Still no Priority Track
Still no GMTI
Still no functional TWS mode
Players forced to hard lock everything using HMD and ACM which has now been broken

Suffice to say, the Typhoon can hardly be considered to even have a radar anymore.

And if CAPTOR-E is for some reaosn too good. (not that the Rafale or Su-30SM have any issues with AESA) Then can we just get Blue Vixen please

This mode doesn’t exist in game for any radar set. Thus is a suggestion, not a bug.

Not present on many radar sets, not captor specific.

Please ensure a report is properly made. Nothing can be done with claims alone.

It is currently present on all AESA radars in game.

And many have the GMTI without issue (F-15E, Su-30SM, F-2, etc) but 2 out of 2 attempts to add GMTI to the Typhoon has failed.

Reports have been made.

Flame made this one for example 4 months ago

This is not the same as what is suggested for Captor M, which is not an AESA. This is an oversimplification of the comparason.

Then its logged and under review. An off topic discussion isnt needed again on it here.

The code exists and the Typhoon already has a nerfed scan rate to accomodate P-track being in operation.

It could very easily and rapidly be applied to all M-Scan radars that have P-Track IRL. And again, if P-track is a game limitaiton. Then CAPTOR-E or CEASER could be given to the Typhoon to replace the CAPTOR-M

Actually as an update, that report was fixed internally two months ago with the deployment of TWS+.

So a new report will be required with fresh files after this change from the previous major.

I have updated the report: Community Bug Reporting System

A global TWS report is open here: Community Bug Reporting System

Other specific issues with Captor should be reported separately.
