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

They should just finally add the Challenger 1 Falcon to the tec tree. Idk which gaps it would be filling but I want it nevertheless.

The same one that the Arjun would apparently fill. But would be waaaay better

i think gaijin instead of adding another 10.7 mbt that we dont need as britain has imo the strongest 10.7 lineup in the game they need to

1: add an spaa for the 7.3-7.7 br

2: implement the many accepted bug reports for the challengers to make them competitive

3: fix the cheiftain mk10 as it went up to 9.3 for some reason

4: give britain and ifv for the 11.0-11.3 range (please blackjax)

5: add APHE to the british 75mm (this is historically acurate i believe)

6: Spear 3 or fnf brimstones (i beg)

7: cr2 streetfighter (personal request)

i think this would be amazing

i garuntee they would make it an event vehicle or a premium

oh 100%. The chances of this being a regular tec tree vehicle are extremely low

Yep, that would be the most sensible course of action

More than likely would just be a CR2 with a dozer-blade so I just want Dozer blades for most/all current CR2s

It should have been the 10.7 SQV over the T-90

This post was flagged by the community and is temporarily hidden.

Yeah, but it likely wouldnt do anything and I would be kinda annoyed to grind out an entirely new CR2 just for a dozer blade

it also has a .50cal (like every other cr2 also should) and im pretty sure the side armour is supposed to be slightly better but i just want it for the “hell yeah” factor

Also gaijin has said they don’t want to add KH-38s to premiums, when it was bug reported for the MKK and MK2

why would it be 12.0? its an ags style turret but on a bigger slower chassis

STOP SAYING THAT!!!

You are also forgetting that the AGS is stuck with M833, which is a 9.0 round.

Lets summarize what we have with the Falcon, gathered mostly from the suggestion:

  • Possibility of firing rounds like KE-W (also the round Gaijin would likely give it, which is already better than almost any of the 11.7-12.7 Challengers.
  • 4.5-5 second reload for the first 2-3 rounds, 7.5 second reload. (similar to the existing CR2s)
  • CR1 hull means it’s lighter and thus more mobile than the CR2s in game. Hell The smaller turret and reduced need for a lot of heavy composite on said turret means that it should be even lighter than the CR1.
  • Crewless turret, which have shown to be extremely potent in WT.

So compared to the CR2, which is 11.7, the Falcon trades a little bit of hull armor for better mobility, sidegrade firepower and much much much better survivability.

I would love to know what kind of weight reductions they achieved with the Falcon turret on the Chally 1 compared to the normal Chally 1.

I would rather have the new Challenger 3 with EPSOM than a CR2 with dozer blade, ngl

oh wow. i need to do my research that would probably make it 12.3-12.7 then considering it sounds not much worse than a black night or a cr2E

i want a cr2 with a brimstone launcher because “hell yeah” the EPSOM would be nice though

But it was long ago deemed by the devs that the brimstone launcher was a mockup and not functional thus not eligible for ingame implementation, sooo

Also, would that launcher even be effective anyway if implemented, or would it just be a reskinned gambling missile like the Spikes?

And EVEN if the missiles were good, it carried only two, so… I don’t know hahah

“was a mockup and not functional” hm… sounds oddly familiar


there is a lot of things in this game that arent real this would just be another one to add to the pile and would be a cool unique thing for an atgm on an mbt

I think with KE-W 12.0 as a starting BR would be fine, if it is too strong it can always move up.

However if Gaijin really wants to slightly push the lines they could make it 12.3-12.7 and give it KE-W A2, which is already on the M1A2T and is about on par with M829A2.
