Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

Game Discussion General Discussion
7576

Basic math shows that 256km x 256km would be tight going edge to edge (and they are never truly edge to edge)

An aircraft traveling mach 1.5 (not exactly hard these days) would only take 8 minutes to go edge to edge (256km distance)

Assuming an aircraft does the same in the other direction. Then thats only 4 minutes to pass each other. Let alone release weapons. About 3 minutes 30 by my reckoning for both sides to get and fire a 40km AMRAAM shot at each other.

Though diaganol angles do help a lot (362.04km from corner to corner)

Yes so US gets two premiums and a boat. And Germany and Sweden get additions that should have been in the last major. What a great update.

Praying for that J10B/C

maybe a new seaplane

7582

Another scout plane that probably won’t be researchable 🥀

7583

Doesn’t mean there’s no aircraft

And still has no 14.0, same as Japan who are getting the F-2 now.

USA / USSR get aircraft nearly every update, China has just as many options so it’s surprising they only get so few in comparison.

bc it isnt a major nation

That’s not a real thing though, it’s just used to describe nations that have more content than others.

When it comes to modern air China very much is a major nation competing with the US and once we pass into 5th gen even surpassing Russia in what there is to add.

It’s a decent vehicle at 11.7, but already seriously outclassed at 12.0.

If it has the VT-4A1 and Black Night curse the B3A will be added at 12.0 and thus easily be one of the worst MBTs at that BR.

Please please please let us have it in SB! We need more carrier/shipping focused maps that aren’t denmark!

We havn’t had an update for sim in years outside of a small Sinai change.

To be honest I don’t understand why they don’t focus more on the simulator mode, with a little more effort it would become the best aviation simulation game, well ahead of its competitors

I haven’t any issues with it at top tier with it, would be fine facing top tier vehicles.
