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

[exeisdefeatable]

Ohk, thanks for answering!!

@Code_649

iirc only anti ship weapons have mmw, but they’re mostly harmless

Nice, didn’t know about that

@Rzi4628-live

doubt we will see them because its a buff for the typhoon which isnt allowed

Lol

[Morvran]

Exactly, but they should be FnF. They should be treated the same way, they arent. Thats the issue.

Gaijin has determined that reskinned AGM-114Ks are a competitive weapon for multiple aircraft and that is very frustrating. You might as well delete them from the game and drop the BR down of said aircraft in GRB. Tornado GR4 for example could go from 12.3 down to 11.3 alongside the RET8

[Mreowdako]

This is going nowhere guys just drop it already

[MightyBaozi]

@Morvran

Exactly, but they should be FnF.

You’ve been answered as to why we don’t have FnF Brimstones.

[Morvran]

Yes, which means I could fire a Spice-250 from 50-60km away, at a target point designated via the map (like a cap point or the enemy spawn) and then pick a target after its been fired Right?

Not with the pgm 500

Pretty sure you can’t do that with SPICE 250 because the target would be so far outside the seeker’s FOV by the time it gets to where it was initially going

Of course, if it’s meant to target spawn sitters that’s another thing entirely, but that’s mostly SPAA and they’ll see it coming anyway

[Danzig_A11]

Is there a chance for a second devblog today or is that all?

[Gunjob]

Yeah however far the current seeker point target limit is, then you could retarget in flight.

[aldemor]

Will there be a possibility to capture a ground point instead of the enemy tank when selecting a new target?

[Morvran]

and the reason for it have basically been eliminated

• Can carry too many. Well we now have 16x Spice-250 and probably just as many if not more GBU-53
• No LOAL. Well this mechanic adds LOAL
• No counter. most nations have counters in the form of top tier SAMs, especially the new Pantsir
• Bnrimstones would cause friendly fire. Not via mode 2 as proposed

There is only one reason not too add it. Gaijin doesnt want to

@Rzi4628-live

Yay kicking the eurofighters in the dirt again you guys really are amazing

What?

This impacts SPICE. Which the Eurofighters have?

[Mreowdako]

guys its in the walls

[Morvran]

Which are on the Tornado GR1… At 11.3 and are quite frankly. a waste of SP

[Smin1080p_WT]

Once again, you are not reading the blog at all. This isnt about FnF. Its about TV and IR seekers with a MITL system.

[TD_SEB]

Im getting super tired of this game, if it was a russian system it would have all the bells and whistles. Like compare the BMP-2M being able to fire its missiles on the move however stormer HVM uses a very similar systems but cant do that

[Morvran]

Which gives them limited LOAL, a mechanic specifically stated to be too OP to add to the game and was directly stated as the MAIN reason as to why FnF would not be added to the Brimstone

@Stona_WT

The primary reason is that this seeker utilizes the “lock-on after launch (LOAL)” mode, this mode allows the weapon to be fired in the general area of a target without needing any actual precision from the operator, who can remain at long range in complete safety.

So why is giving a KH-59 LOAL not OP but a Brimstone get FnF is very OP?

[Pipimer]

even the Spyder isn’t 12.7 material, and a nation as the Israel that is famous for the AAs to have nothing in game is weird

[Morvran]

Yep. It would have done.

[magach]

tor is much better than the spider. spyder is barely 11.3 worthy
