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

Also, just a thought I have. I am extremely disappointed at the addition of the M10 booker over other light tanks the US tested. I hope us getting the Booker doesn’t mean that the other interesting light tanks, such as the XM1302 or other upgrades of the M8 will be locked behind events, although, history shows quite the contrary. But surely the XM1302 wouldn’t be an event vehicle right? It’s one of the US’s only light tanks equipped with an APS.

I would have expected a jeep with at least a recoilless rifle to have come a couple years ago. I’m not sure if there is some sort of technical issue regarding how to model crew members or what. No HMMWV with TOW yet is just inexplicable, especially considering the US doesn’t even have a TT missile carrier.

Mind you, the US is known for their TOW systems, yet it is the only nation in the game to not have a dedicated missile launcher in its TT. Bonkers.

hope we can play 8 r60m

G’day to this thread, first question what’s with the bread between comments 8400 - 8700?

In other news, what’s the chance’s this is either a DDR Volksmarine Project 133.1 or Indonesian one sold to them after decommissioning from German service after unification? The forward CIWS seems to be an AK-230 while the mast doesn’t have the large radar dome of the current soviet one in game.

Also it has its own colour scheme which would suggest it’s a premium.

Could easily be one of the 6 ships sent to the Soviet Baltic fleet.

Gonna be crazy if at some point I can look through my Night Force NX8 2.5-20 in game!

I can’t wait for the AJAX this update (yes I am a British main)

While true, it’s odd to essentially add a further one to a tree that already has a Project 1331M corvette, unless it’s an as built one.

Only possibility if it was a soviet one, is if it’s premium as it does have a unique scheme by the looks (green, grey scheme).

Just praying its in a good state. Not like the half finished messes a lot of our recent additions have been or the CR2s are

If they go off the half made up suggestion post it should be fine, we also both know people who can get enough info on this to get changes

Yeah, though the issue isnt usually sources.

Its usually Gaijin actually reading bug reports

Its the fine line we walk. I do find it funny however is that we are getting 2x ASCOD 2 derivates (Ajax and Booker), but ASCOD 2 is nowhere to be seen

Cant give us too many IFVs in one shot. They need to be spread out over the next 10 years or so

It’ll be a war for the placement of the ASCOD

So why is adding playable infantry a good investment but adding new game modes not? Very disappointing and I don’t believe it fits the game but as long as it is made a separate game mode that players can choose to play and its not ham-fisted into GRB I suppose I can tolerate it.

Forget about new gamemodes. Just updating the current ones would be a huge start

Did they say that was off the table too though? I agree that is would be better than nothing but its very annoying to see this trailer after gaijin said they did not want to add new game modes or whatever. I really don’t see how playable infantry fits into this game, like I have said before they could have added deployable infantry squads with MANPADS or ATGMs but even that is a stretch.

Also I hope we get new Eurofighters with AESA but the super hornet is cool too.

The Q&As attitude towards that aerial warfare gamemode of being “we’ll pick it at when we get a chance” combiend with their attitude towards Heli PvE has destroyed any hope I might have for gamemodes like Air Sim actually getting remembered. its clear all they care about is queue times and the “most played” gamemodes.

So whislt we are getting an entire new FPS Game, ive been waiting 3 years for a new Air Sim map. Its just frustrating.

Me too, hopefully it will come with a few new goodies as well and maybe a second honeymoon period where we can FINALLY get a few bug reports fixed
