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

I can’t see them doing that, we didn’t get RB75T until the Gripen C got AGM65G which was after AGM-65G was already in game.

RBS 15 still isn’t here and the J35XS is still missing its missiles. It’s clear Sweden air isn’t and hasn’t been a priority that’s not even including Penguins which have been gutted to being a worse AGM65 which isn’t how they should act anyways. (Though I’d argue gaijin just doesn’t care about any anti ship missiles though given the performance of them in game so not really exclusive but the Penguin is the only anti ship missile that literally doesn’t even do the basic ship missile behavior like sea skimming.)

Additionally if the A32A and AJS aren’t selling it just further incentives gaijin to ignore them rather than correcting them or making them balanced. See Strv 103 armor, hull aiming, and dual engine getting removed. (Seriously idk who at gaijin looked at the AJS and said yeah that’s a good vehicle to make a premium. I’m sure we’ll get a lot of money on that. Same with the A32A which only got a BR decrease after the premium brought attention to it being one of the most mid aircraft.)

It would need to make a decent amount of money first for gaijin to bother correcting them. Look at Elde and NOMADS, I’m just waiting for the next 12.0 slop vehicle to replace them because nobody is playing them and gaijin is sitting there wondering why nobody is playing the worst SPAA in game

I assume Gaijin wanted a Premium bomber like the Tornado WTD because those always sell well

now AJS isn’t that, AJS is a Smart Anti ship weapons carrier that’s missing it’s smart weapons (RB04, RBS15)

It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see the AJS isn’t a bomber lol, if that were the case then gaijin would’ve added another F-35. Gaijin stated they wanted a prem strike fighter for ground which the AJS is alright at but that’s about it, it’s alright. Its trash at anything else.

The AJS is incapable of taking a base in a full uptier with its payload while also being the most vulnerable bomber at and below its tier. No guns or countermeasures

it’s the only explanation I can see for them adding A32A instead of J32 and AJS instead of idk JA37A

Guys, i know when sl crates is gonna be announced.
Tommorow! Why? → Becouse to day is the weekend, nobady works in the weekend, and yeah thats why

Well tbf neither of the AJS or Lansen are good in air and really are mediocre in ground and there’s nothing else they can get. Well they could but gaijin doesn’t have the stones to add the XT lol (suffering from success)

That’s a pitty, France has lots of unique and fun things to play, you’re missing on a lot

French 7.5mm guns are nice

they’re really fun until you reach early jets

then fun again after you get to Mirage III

All the French thing I want to play are the ones Greece and Cyprus used so now I am waiting, also in Isreal they are a lot of French tanks that I loved, and a lot of aircraft

I enjoyed ranks 5-6 a lot too tbh, some are mid but still fun to play

I hate 99% of early jet gameplay

I personally much more enjoyed flying a Spitfire at 7.0 than any jet below 8.7

To each their tastes, I really don’t enjoy late props and I get tired of high tiers very quickly (but this probably has something to do with the fact that I spend a lot of time spading things and stock grind is unbearable at high tiers)

7.x jets take 8 hours to accelerate. That is the problem. Luckily, France has none.

But yeah, 20mms are not the best guns and what makes France special (goofy mechanics) are not there at rank 5.

Maybe the recently suggested NF meteor or a R.511 equipped local Sea Venom would help

I can make use of any 20mm gun tbh

.50s are bad past 4.7

but 20s are fine

the acceleration and lack of energy retention is what gets me

Weren’t the SL crates supposed to be today following the riddle they posted?

Depends which answer is correct, but the answers which were on the weekend are to 99,9% wrong, I saw some answers with 10.08.26 or 20.08.26
(My SL are on the 10th August)

Agree, the answer to the 4th question was most likely first quarter of december.
