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

I doubt it, rank IX is hardly a rework. It’s just continuing what the game has always done.

Also iirc at the time rank IX was already pretty much confirmed, since last update they said that the rank VIII lines with four vehicles would see one of them moved up a rank once it comes. So it’s be a really weird choice to only call it a “possibility”

But it was more than just Rank IX, they also foldered a load of stuff and moved things between ranks.

Is the new preorder the “Unique Howitzer” or can we expect more?

Better than the F-22 and F-35

I’m willing to die on that hill

True…

A rework of the trees would be nice, even more so if it involves sub-trees, tho I wouldn’t mind if it was the era split, just not care as much. Wasn’t there a sub-tree rework on one of the 2026 guess lists?

Teaser when?

Which is also nothing new, it didn’t change anything about research trees, just reorganized a few vehicles into folders like we see every other update anyways. I’m still holding out hope that there has to be something more in order to motivate anyone to put it as a point on the 2026 guess list

This was it, anything more was speculation from me when the list first came out

I guess we’ll see, but im not expecting much

whats the new american jet odds looking like

I would think so, but sadly this devblog did not solve my Hummel hungryness, and If I had to guess the same thing could be said about you.

Either F-16C PoBIT, F-15EX, or F/A-18E/F Block III.

Best odds are for the F-16C PoBIT since we only just got the F/A-18E Block II last update and the F-15C GE the update before that.

There’s really no telling what it means from the clue alone.

It could be anything

Yeah… but this is Gaijin we are talking about, so I cant really think of what else it would realistically be

I partially want to believe that too, but I also fear that they will just set 14.7 as the cut off BR for AIM-120Ds to appear. Same as 14.0 seemingly being the cut off BR for 120C-5 to appear, which really cucks the F-16I.

I have a feeling that the F-16I situation will repeat itself with the PoBIT.

Well they did say they want to give US top tier air a boost (and a proper 14.7 indirectly hinted), the PoBIT would do neither.

f-15ex would be most ideal overall i feel

lets say if were were to get either jet what would be the main cas weapon?

Knowing Gaijin? probably what is currently available already for US top tier.

Maybe GBU-53 locked to IR seeker only if Gaijin feels like it, so no MMW.

What is the other one?

Yeah, but people asked for increased HOBS capability which they’ll get with AIM-120D on a “technically true” basis.
