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

Yes, TOW HMMWV and Jeep with TOW would be good start.

I’m more of a ATGM Stryker type of guy, but all ATGM carriers are good additions in my book

They have those?

Who, the US?
The M1134 is the TOW launcher variant of the Stryker, isn’t it? They operate those.

LAV-AT and LAV-ATM are good options as well. The Stryker one would be cool. Speaking of Strykers, Sgt. Stout and Dragoon when? Hell, when will US get a wheeled IFV?

I have always found ATGMs annoying to use so I have no reason to ever play any ATGM carrier when it releases, but yeah the M1134 is probably the coolest looking option for the US.

LAV-ATM seems fine, but LAV-AT seems very meh.

You can find such jeeps with atgms or recoilless rifles for basically every nation. UAZ for USSR (and WP nations), Fiat Campagnola for Italy, Willys for USA, Mitsubishi Type 73 for Japan and etc:

Not sure how to balance them though)

Problem is, can you find any with both?

ATGMs and Recoilless rifle simultaneously on a single vehicle? Not sure.

I just had a thought, could the introduction of rank IX air be a good opportunity for them to rework the tech tree ?

“We would like to draw attention to the fact that the F/A-18E Super Hornet and other jets for USA, USSR, China and Sweden that are coming in Line of Contact means there are four vehicles at rank VIII vertically for these nations, which is something we said we would not do. This will only be temporary as we would like to confirm that in early 2026 we’ll be introducing rank IX for aircraft, which aims to solve this problem by moving some rank VIII aircraft to rank IX along with some economic changes. However, until then, you can still use aircraft at rank VII to effectively research the new top-tier jets released in the Line of Contact major update. Stay tuned for more news coming in the next few months!”

I mean think about it Rank IX, Tech tree rework and Swiss Ground forces and all of this to be planned for early 2026

I remember Grov the store guy told us a while ago that Germany was the most played nation in game so making a reworked tree around them first along with an introduction of a ground sub tree could make sense

I don’t expect much from rank IX ground at all lol.

Do you remember rank VIII ground?

Just an opportunity for them to sell more expensive premiums.

Oh yeah I do get what you are saying, however I still don’t think they’ll put any significant effort in any way into rank IX ground.

In terms of the swiss line, a lot of their MBTs at least can still be placed in the Leopard 2K. And they can reshuffle Germany rank V-VII in such a way to make it both more efficient and make space for Switzerland at those BRs.

I mean sure but that’s rather a lot of work, it would be easier to add a horizontal scroll and add that 6th line. But given we don’t know how many tanks will be added we just have to see
