yeah ? spice 250 mockup next to Ef2000 has been added.
I don’t think that this is a tin foil hat moment, they really are running out of modern content because they skipped a lot of non-modern content while rushing towards modern day equipment. They can’t keep that pace up anymore because we already have state-of-the-art variants of a lot of vehicles, so they now have to spread modern additions as thinly as possible.
This probably is the main reason why they are adding infantry, it’s another branch of military to use as update filler. It seems pretty likely that future updates will include fewer vehicles than we are used to (or even more copy paste) and they’ll probably tell us that the amount of content is still the same because they added a handful of infantry weapons.

A real weapon added as a placeholder for our actual FnF weapon that has been denied is different to a completely fictional weapon ebing added despite being significantly more powerful than anything anyone else has, but sure, replace the 8x Spice-250s for 18x MMW Brimstone 2s. Sounds good to me

It’s very sad. Especially since, as you said, there is still a HUGE lack of vehicles from the Cold War and WW2.
I hope Gaijin will revise their content addition strategy because it’s really starting to get boring, I can’t even remember the last update that really hyped me up.
And the “funny” thing is that the infantry weapons will all be taken from Enlisted, which means it won’t even require any concrete effort from them.

wont happen any time soon, no matter how much people ask for it.
but like i said, radar missile will be added to everyone. wont be so good as most of the time will lock dead body instead of actual target.
Unfortunately yeah. KH-38 would no longer be Meta and therefore its banned. At least hopefully Brimstone 1s will be half usable
and if we start getting into things such as having 28 F&F missile in 1 match, expect counters such as these.

I wouldn’t even mind getting fewer interesting vehicles per update, IF Gaijin was putting the effort that would be required for interesting vehicles into improving the game in general.
There is so much they could do with the existing game modes, so much that could be done to improve the gameplay in general, but apparently infantry has become a high priority addition instead of anything that would make existing game modes more interesting and gameplay more engaging.
Imagine if they put more work into co-op modes, the campaign modes or the world war mode…
Or if they put some actual effort into new mechanics rather than adding them in the most barebones way possible…
Or, god forbid, if they added mechanics that have been missing for years, like proper ECM, regenerative braking or literally anything to make IFVs IFVs and not just light vehicles with a bunch of empty space.

I LOVE POWERCREEP!!!1!
The CAS/SPAA arms race truly is the best thing that ever happened to GRB!
Spoiler
Proper balance measures like buffing/nerfing certain specs/values is not an option, because “muh realism” and “muh historical accuracy”
Surface to air hellfire ?
Honestly we have just reached a point where i would consider the current state of things more or less kinda balanced. KH-38s, LMUR,JAGM, and SPICE 250 and such do actually have fairly decent counters in the new SAMs. There are certainly still moments where a plane can get up and absolutely wreck a game for people of course. but its nowhere near as bad or one sided as it was like half a year ago now.
so its genuinely funny to me when people ask for something like MMW Brimstone because i know for a fact they aren’t doing it for “balance” reasons no they are just doing it because they are a single nation main who wants their preferred nation to stomp.

Yeah, I’ll have to agree with that. GRB definitely is a lot more balanced than it used to be.
Personally, I think anti air is at a disadvantage again, but there isn’t much Gaijin could do to change that, now that they opened the can of worms that is long range FnF missiles on helicopters.
Absolutely. A lot of people seem to be stuck with the “I suffered for x amount of time, so now the other side should suffer” and that approach is not healthy for the game balance at all.

Haha, this is hilarious
KH-38MT vs Spice-250 = balanced?
You do know that Spice-250 is a glide bomb right?
have you played top tier?
Also calling for actual balance is apparently wanting “OP things”. But alas, major nation bias.

JEEPS WITH RECOILLESS RIFLES. HMMWV’s as well. More oscillating turrets for US, except in the TT. It’s also time for the goofy Cold War projects. More wheeled vehicles as well in general, where’s my LAV-25?

Here is a balance idea that I have been wanting. US is the only nation without a missile carrier in TT. The US literally created the TOW launcher, and doesn’t even have a vehicle whose designated role is to operate one. TOW HMMWV, Jeep with TOW?
