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

The su30mkk dosent get tvc and dosent get a PESA radar and also dosent get the r-77-1

It doesn’t ruin the gameplay and for earlier missiles it definitely is realistic, in certain cases even much less of a factor than it should be.

This is why China should get the J-10C first

Yes, but it may not be done “as in real life.” Moreover, this is how it is done in many places in the game at the moment. Once again, the only realistic thing in the game is the 3D model of vehicles, the rest is game convention and attempts by gaijin to make it “as it should be.”

How does it ruin gameplay? It’s incredibly easy to get around multipathing.

Tbh I don’t care what they get as long as it isn’t a Su30mk variant because they are going to be absolutely useless and at best only a side grade to the J-11a

They could also get a J-15 or a J-16 as well which would probably be way better ingame than the Su-30mk’s

meanwhile I’m just chilling at higher altitude getting free kills from all the people who think multipathing is some sort of magical forcefield.

Hey. Any new weaponry and ordinance in a major update of any kind is most likely to be shown off in blogs or the dev stream.

The answer about the next gen of air-to-air missiles however still stands.

Realism is only important when it comes to deleting certain vehicles from certain nations, other than that it’s isn’t.

Imagine playing smart instead of brainlessly spamming Fox-3s willy-nilly at the first radar signatures you can find

  • people that think 16v16 with a clustered airspawn on relatively small maps is realistic and fun

the only time I’d accept realistically modelled (and bug reportable) multipathing is when we get properly sized maps (if current is 128x128, maybe 256x256), and use it near-corner to near-corner to get the most milage out of each map, the standard air RB match is too small a map and too concentrated a player count to practically remove multipathing, and to also have stock Chaff,

even going corner to corner on our current 128x128 maps would be a nice improvement, or the age old concept gaijin seems to hate, Air RB EC, like SB but RB controls and hopefully with ground RB spotting

even on our current maps, top jets don’t need drops tanks or even cut burner to make it to one side and back, with fuel to spare,

So can we expect dev-blog today?

Still in the air fryer, needs a bit longer.

Trees also need to get trimmed to realistic sizes and maps should offer more natural cover, so flying low actually lets you fly somewhat stealthy
