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

we are talking about an incomplete Russian ship waiting for it to come out and dominate its br

I am so looking forward to South Dakota…

Second favourite ship in Battlestations Pacific, only second to Iowa- and they are basically the same functionally, except Dakota looks like the compact version and is a bit slower.

Guns may have a bit less penetration, but still; knowing it will have the same armor and survivability as Iowa is lovely! Finally U.S is eating well in Naval, with a lineup of 2 REALLY good spawns after years of barely functional ships.

it has 305mm guns that cannot be built with a Penetration they couldn’t achieve if they were built

the mere existence of this ship in game wouldn’t be so bad if there were similar ships in other trees

It won’t due to two factors:
–>It’s tech tree, not premium
–>See reason above ( they’ll put it to a BR way too high due to that)

I’m not gonna say that “hur dur only premiums” because that is not true

I will, however, say, that I am deeply dissappointed that it seems everything pre-1990 is either being neglected, or seems to only be of value to the Snail is something we have to spent money on.

Thank you, Gaijin, for your humble kindness towards us WW2 and early Cold War enjoyers…

I keep forgetting how much copium people have when it come to later russian ships.

2nd devblog possible today?

you mean Unbuilt hulls or actually Postwar Soviet ships? which we don’t have many of rn

I’d be happy to see some more Postwar ships

Another premium for sure.
Back to coma I go.

Id say reasonably likely, might not be a vehicle though.

Still to call the US the most fleshed out air tree within this area is to be ignorant to what is actually there compared to other tree’s. The only tree’s with less than the US are the most minor of tree’s and even then only 3 are significantly less

it is the tree with the most vehicles in game

it’s not a tree that requires prototypes either as there are still very many Service Aircraft that can be added at all BRs

Krohnstadt/Sovetzky Soyuz/Stalingrad/several Sverdlov class cruisers/Neustrashimy class DD.

All in all we have a big chunk of the postwar Soviet fleet, both build or partially build, in game now.

That doesnt mean it cant have vehicles where it actually needs something

See QnA where the guy says they add a whole lot of WW2/Cold war stuff every year.
( How many of those were actually paywalled is not mentioned for obvious reasons, we can only expect that part to get worse)

needs?

it has 12 Vehicles in that area

Nations like Sweden and China need something there

And im not saying they dont need something. I am saying that the US also very much needs stuff there as well

Now the ones who dont need anything within the 5.0 and 7.0 range, is Germany since they have the highest amount of stuff there in the researchable part of their air tree

So, you are saying that the US doesnt need any more rank 8 aircraft for a good long while as they have the most researchable options?
