Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

you would think gaijin would hire more designers after warthunder gets more and more players and more money in general due to higher priced top tier premiums

Why do that when you could instead do the bare minimum and pocket the difference?

Ofc I agree with you, but the above is probably what’s going on.

Maybe the bare minimum is too harsh, I respect much of the work the devs have done, but what I really mean is not expanding. They should invest more in creating content.

The late service F-2 would at least give us J/APG-2 and finally some proper CAS.

8x L-JDAM using Sniper Pod hehehe

would be interesting to see the revenue and winnings over the years but I don’t think gaijin has public numbers

I hope we get sniper pod sooner rather than later. If Britain is stuck with Gen 1 TIALDs for all eternity. Its gunna suck

Aren’t the F-16C and MiG-29 SMT both from like 2006?

planes like the F-4 Ice, mig21 (if it gets fox 3) and Harrier will get fucked. At least we can hope they are not the same br (although they probably will get dragged up to these)

Yep, FA2 is gunna be a hell of a lot of fun, if its Br 12.0 and no higher than 12.3.

If its the same BR as the Su-27SM…

Top tier is dead for me and i’ll be in the FRS1e, if playing the game at all

which one was the first one?

I think that’s fine? F-2 late would also give us L-JDAMs (finally good CAS) and at that point we’d have some parity with the US F-16C which is also getting AMRAAMs, most likely.

They could add the early variant later either as event or maybe even premium way later down the line. It feels like at this point an F-2 early is kind of a missed opportunity, just like the XF-2A.

Also what they said lol.

I think also one big thing that isn’t talked about enough is, even with AESA, since it’s not on a mechanical dish, there’s a limited FoV compared to other radars, so there won’t be 3-9 maneuvers while also keeping target radar locked. What are the odds you’re going to stay looking onto a target with TWS while their radar missiles close in on you and they start defending while you can’t do much without losing lock and hoping your ARH is pitbull and not defeated?

Maybe if you grind it fast but after sometime you will get dragged up aswell.

Considering the Leo2a7V and Leo2A5 are still the same br I fear for the worst.

AESA TWS is LEAGUES better than the crappy mechanical TWS we have in game. Its basically impossible to confuse even if its tracking 20+ craft at the same time.

Britain already has a tank with active protection.

that tank isn’t one of the best ingame atm

Yea, but in terms of WT, the advantages won’t be that big. Especially if they’re also notchable and multipathed because Gaijin said so for balance.

Yeah… Im ready to power grind it. But I can see it going like the gr7. Reasonable Br to start with, massively over BRed and in need of buffs within a month and those buffs wont come for another 8 months

We got our own
