Oh yay, I’ll have to watch it. His decal was one of, if not the first, I ever picked up, as I loved his cinematics.
same here.
i just loved his character with the zeros /F-1 behind him and is my most favorite CC Decal.
Considering that they want to add strategic bombers as “collectible vehicles”, I wonder which one they’ll add first. There are so many options!
Vulcan

Victor

Valiant

TSR.2

XB-35

YB-49

A3D

B-45

B-47

Mirage IV

Myasishchev M-4

B36 Pacemaker???
how could you forget the Single biggest one of them all`???
Su-30SM2 has a faster spawn speed than other top tier aircraft like F-15, EFT, Rafale, J-10C, and Gripen. This was somewhat understandable due to its flight performance, but now that the flight performance had received buffs yesterday should the SU-30SM2 still retain its faster spawn speed?
- Yes
- No
I left a bunch out
B-1, B-2, B-32, B-36, B-50, B-52, B-58, FB-111, Tu-16, Tu-22, Tu-22M, Tu-95, Tu-160, H-6, M-50
personal favourite of the 3 V bombers just because it looks cooler then the Vulcan or the Valiant
It should be a % of some parameters (ideally there shouldn’t be airspawn at all) for everyone, but yeah it looks like it’s just purely something that is meant to make the life of the players of this plane in particular have a better time.
also a shame they didnt go for the wing pylons to allow an additional 28 1000lb bombs would have given it a larger payload then even the B-52 70 1000lbs vs 76 1000lbs
I feel like since they aren’t likely to be the main focus of an update (going by BVVD saying they are going to be more to collect rather than play) then they should sprinkle them into the updates alongside other additions.
Like how they seem to be doing with the armed trainer aircraft (even though they had the perfect chance to do an armed trainer update with Alpha Strike but fumbled that update hard).
Same, the Victor is gorgeous.
It looks like an upscaled Buccaneer
Spoiler
I think I had a pic of a Victor refueling multiple Buccaneers at once saved somewhere, but I can’t find it right now :(
Hopefully they’ll do an update that adds more advanced fighter/trainer aircraft (FA-50, M-346FA, and ofc more hawks.)
Edit: Almost forgot about the Yak130 :p
I want the Nimrod :)
there is so much wrong with this image I hate him so much
Yep, we could have had a basic trainer update with Alpha Strike with the:
- Alpha Jets
- Hawk T.1/100
- Gnat
- F-5F (early version in-line with the F-5E)
- L-39ZA
- T1
- AMX
- MB-326B/K
- SK60F
And then a modern trainer update with stuff like the:
- Hawk 200’s
- FA/T-50
- MB-346
- YaK-130
- F-5F (late version with modernised cockpit and 9L’s)
There’s also plenty of other aircraft groups Gaijin could make an update out of like COIN and Strategic Bombers which would no doubt be good updates but we just keep seeing them push for more and more modern tech whilst forgetting about stuff that isn’t right at the top.
Gaijin would rather add infantry
i dont get all of the hate for infantry if you dont like it dont play their mode its just that simple lol, its like the people that hate naval dev blogs, like sure its not interesting for the vast majority of the player base but naval does have its players. I imagine infantry when its actually open to more people will probably be a pretty fun game mode from everything ive seen
If infantry ends up bringing some stuff into other modes like AI infantry insertion/extraction objectives with helicopters in Sim EC or even WW1 I’d be all for it.
But seeing as it will just most likely be a further drain on their resources I have to agree that it’s a bad idea.
Although after playing the CBT I can’t say it wasn’t fun. Very rough but it has potential however it’s not the right time for it now.
I don’t really care about infantry itself
What I care about it that Gaijin apparently has a lot of resources to spare and instead of using those resources on improving the “main” game, they use those resources to add an entirely new branch of military
