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

huh only thing I could find was that it was for the EK (wont stop gaijin from denying it I would imagine)

Im really trying to understand how they deem a glidebomb with IR a problem cause of “super long range” (which doesnt really matter when you can lob most other glidebombs already at 40-50km), when we have the spice, can ANYONE try to explain it to me?..

I’m sorry Smin but we already have 3 weapons that fit that description (Hammer, spice 1000/200 & KH-38MT) yet all of a sudden their GNSS capability completely disappeared in the middle of the devserver, nowhere to be seen again, so i don’t think it’d make much of a difference as of right now.
The report’s been open for months now and I haven’t heard any feedback regarding it to this day; so im sorry but it feels like seekers are completely gimped for the sake of balance, so i don’t know why it couldn’t be the case with this one

That is exactly the only reason why the Spice 250s even appeared in the first place, because without them the F-16I would be such a sad addition with nothing they could hype up about it.

If they ever add another non-AESA EFT for some reason I wouldn’t be suprised to see it get more of these A2G weapons.

For the early ones its fine, but later on its going to be even worse to balance. Like you get to the 1990’s and unless you have an Arleigh Burke derivative or a Russian ship you’re completely out of luck.

In the Naval department, at this point, I look forward to more to König than Musashi, Littorio, Nagato, or Jean Bart.

I used to be a Top Tier player, since I’m a WW2 BB enthusiast. I really was.

Then Soyuz happened. And even to this day, it still hasn’t been fixed…

So I just see any ship within Soyuz’s matchmaking to be pointless.

Besides, the grind is just way too ludicrous. Each and every single Rank VI ship required to unlock Rank VII. Can’t skip even one…

And let’s not even talk about PT boats finishing matches in <5 minutes by capping the PT caps before BBs can even actually engage.

All these fine additions mean nothing as long as these issues persist…

which is so dumb as it still leaves the EFTs handicapped for CAS, but im sure we will get SOMETHING at some point hell who knows maybe they will throw us a bone and just give brimstones an imaginary IR seeker until mmV is added

Would be the easiest thing they could do to “simulate” the MMW

So naval is dead and cannot be fixed then. What about more modern submarines?

We’ve answered many times why it was removed. There were technical reasons and conflicts with the functionality. We also do not intend for FnF + LOAL. As we made clear in the Tornado GR.4 blog.

I mean in the past they added stuff before their main features were technically in the game, the phantom FGR2 was added before PD radars were in the game so it sat for months with a place holder radar

Guys, we appear to be going further and further off track here. There are open topics to discuss the EFTs and their equipment.

Would be a fun gamemode. Would need to be done similarly as part of an enduring confrontation mode I think.

I still think they should add a mode called ‘fleet operations’ that starts every 30 minutes or so like this.

I do think people underestimate the precision and time and difficulty it takes to torpedo someone effectively though. Particularly as the average ship will be faster than you are in your submarine.

However I very much think as part of ‘fleet ops’ it would be super fun to have wolfpacks on both sides, a few large capital ships, cruisers destroyers, anti submarine frigates etc. And you could easily work you way up even to the modern day with aircraft carriers.

oh yeah smin you never responded to my question the other day, is there any chance in the future we might see more of these anime style skins for other nations, like for the a premium Challenger 2 or Type 90?

Hopefully Gaijin will fix it in the next update :) Community Bug Reporting System

We have nothing to announce right now or speak of currently.

fair enough was just curious as this is kinda a first for the game so didnt know if the devs maybe had more planned

Mr. @Smin1080p_WT , can I ask when the Japanese P-51C and BF-109 E-7 will receive their bombs, and when the Japanese FW-190 A-5 will receive its missiles? All three of these planes were identical to the production aircraft, but they still lack their underwing armament. I’d like to remind you that this should be the same as with the Thai Alpha Jet, which received the Musser cannon, because it’s compatible with it.
