Hopefully this means they’ve changed their idea of making infantry modern exclusive.
Hey speaking of WW1, have you seen the series WINGS ?
rafale C already had ESA, rafale M was literally pointless, as did Su-30SM
Top notches like 2A4M, UE-1, Clickbait(+anime variants), khalid and type 90 etc may get moved up, others like raam segol and RGO may not, and replaced with new ones instead
The SM2 does have better engines so that is neat, still, not worthy for a whopping 420K RP
I do consider the attracting point of WT infantry mode as its ability to include 10 nations and potentially subtrees, hope that gets implemented
4.5 gen and 4.5+ gen fighter aircraft moving to rank 9 for the first quarter 2026
After the second major update, maybe
But I suppose gajin ready F-22A (early service)
Gen 5 and stealth would involve a lot of work, but at the same time, since there are likew 3 trees that isnt using F-35s exclusively the balancing would be a lot easier
SM2 is one of the few that’s an actual massive upgrade
The J-10C seems bleak, new missiles are neat but after all the real upgrade was the AAMs - I do think it would be better for this aircraft to be renamed J-10B or even J-10B TVC with added TVC; Rafale is just there; IDK about Golden Eagle
golden eagle is totally worthless junk, just forget it exists
I see. Old scenario with some rank VI moved to VII. Rinse and repeat. That means purchasing 65 EUR premium tanks is pointless now.
at least better than F/A-18e which is already forgotten
Apparently the older weapons only exist in the files because they are still used a lot by post WW2 militaries.
Also, from what I’ve heard Gaijin is planning to have infantry start at the Korean War era, no plans anything before that.
yeah mostly WW2 stuff there. some postwar equipment but not much. I wonder what CAS will be since they barely had armed helicopters
But that’s my problem with starting at Korea with infantry, if we have tech modelled all the way back too WW1 then why not start the tree then. Sure modern weapons may have a bigger appeal which is properly way gaijin has started the CBT in modern era but far too many games are being made for that era, I can count at least three ArmA, Call of duty, Battlefield. If gaijin want to make Infantry worth it then they gonna have to make it inline to what we already have in other trees.
i think they want to have at least semi automatic as the basic infantry rifle. bolt action for snipers maybe and anti-tank rifles but nothing else
Yeah faster pacing seems to what they want to gain people’s attention with, I’ve seen some of the footage from the WT team and other youtubers and like I’ve said before it just tapping into the wrong market by starting in a era where most if not all FPS already are.
I doubt so, they plan the F-15SG for that purpose
I usually divide the game into roughly:
1.0-5.0: props
5.0-6.7: superprops
7.0-9.0: low tier jets
9.0-11.0: middle tier jets
11.0-13.0: high tier jets
13.3+: top tier jets
But of course the lines are more blurry than that
1.0-5.0 Famous WWII BRs
Required Player Skill: Low-Medium
5.0-6.7 Late Prop age
Required Player Skill: Medium-High
7.0-9.0 Jet Dogfight Era
Required player skill: High-very High
9.0-11.0 Transition to Missile Era/IR Meta
Required Player Skill: High-Medium
11.0-13.0 Transition to BVR Meta
Required Player Skill Medium
13.0-14.3 Pure BVR Meta
Required player skill: Low-Medium
High Skill requirement = Hard/Frustrating to Use aircraft due to Performance or Airframe Quirks or Compression
Low Skill = Easy to use and learn, even absolute Newcomers can Score kills without much Frustration
Examples:
A-21RB Very high skill requirement due to: Low wing rip speed, little acceleration, low top speed for th BR
Su-30SM2: Low Skill Requirement due to: AESA TWS Radar, 12 R-77-1 Missiles + 2 TVC IRCCM R-73 Missiles, Forgiving Airframe, Usable Engine acceleration and top speed
