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

its no joke, reality cant be overused

yeah those are the special gimmic ones, which are a rarity fair point, but they realy arent “great” in the sense outside of being funny i guess, besides that i guess thats what the sales are for

I think smth leaks from my 59 ton Ariete 🤔

  1. Yugoslavia has enough for a coastal tree, and 2. why say “you could add Serbia” when Serbia in an integral part of the tree? Without Serbia, there is no Yugoslavia, and it is the most prominent post-Yugoslav nation.

Serbia would be the main continuation of the Yugo tree too, it by far produces the most unique post-Yugoslav vehicles that are also functional for the game.

Real talk, I think Iran could get its own tree, make it higher tier since in modern times they have diversified vastly due to sanctions. Good thread on it in the forum with a full tech tree :).

Freccia is nice (only compared to other Spike carriers) because it has a better placement of missiles (+quantity) and a cannon with higher RoF, which allows for more aggressive gameplay, though it lacks in terms of survivability a lot, idk maybe spall liners for Hitfist turrets will make it a bit better (report is acknowledged).
KF41 is more of a scout vehicle, which though allows to more reliably pen sides of any mbts, it also has a better survivability.

It would be remodeling for every tank then.
But I would rather all ammunition go off at bigger rate, I don’t remember whats the percentage RN but I would like it to get higher.

well yeah to be fair it’s a quite conservative tree, more high tier stuff could be added

The voices in the walls reliable sources have informed me MiG-25PD will be in the next patch or I will cry

I’m just huffing copium because we have F-15 but not the funny extremely fast troll plane. I don’t care how impractical or weak it is but I want to go fast. I hope we get MiG-25 or MiG-31 before the game descends into total SPAMRAAM hell.

But I’m generally mostly excited to see the roadmap. I’d really like if Gaijin focus all possible resources on paying the technical debt first and foremost, then adding additional realism to basic mechanics like armour penetration and damage. New shiny is nice but I really believe fundamental improvements will bring old players back and promote the game to new players by word of mouth.

Are we talking about Yugoslavia here? I second this. Not only that, but they also inherited some of Austria-Hungary’s navy, therefore they also have enough for a bluewater tree, and they also have more than enough for air, ground (we know their ingenious hybrid tanks and want them) and even indigenous helicopters.

Would be really nice…

I have here a collection of stat cards I photoshopped for Yugoslavia before they decided to switch to basic. Some are as old as 2019.

What would be nice is for German air and French ground to stop being intentionally gimped in order to not overshadow Russia. If Germany had gotten all its top tier jets at the same time as Russia got theirs, Russia wouldn’t have been the special boy, so instead, they were held back, sometimes upwards of half a year in the cases of the MiG-21bis-SAU, which came out in the same update as the bloody MiG-23MLD, and the MiG-23MLA, which came out much, much later. The 21bis-SAU is a literal copy and paste of the bis, and the 23MF could and should have been added to the tech tree in the same update as the 23M, since it is also just a copy and paste, and the 23MLA has extremely few differences from the 23MLD, and thus there is no logical reason other than greed and bias for it coming out later.

Rant over.

heard something about all top tier tanks having their horiz and vert speeds nerfed to about 5°/s-10°/s

All non-Russian ones, you mean.

no…? all top tier tanks are you blind

I’m curious about this one.

German air seems gimped for mostly historical reasons, like BD relied mostly on NATO (US) Air support in the fulda gap, DDR conversely on OVD (SSSR) Air support.
Secondarily by the schedule of additions.
Take rank 7 premiums for example, MiG-21bis Lazur-M seems bad until you compare it to J-7D at the same br… I’d even take WTD61 over J-7D, probably better to grind by bombs than struggling with a pathetic 6750kgf engine at 11.0.

MiG-29 (9-12G) is still really powerful, it’s just not a missile sled.

French ground, what’s wrong with it?

I implore you to learn what a joke is.
