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

I just realized, @Shin_Kazama (when you’re awake, or if you are currently), what do you think about the idea of the beautiful Tigershark being a squadron vehicle?? (Might be a possibility… although unlikely… I still feel like they would have announced its preorder by now if it was one)

honestly don’t know how I’d feel about it if it was one, might be better than it being a prem imo, likely less F-20 spammer to give it a bad reputation, but idk man, whatcha think?? Just a random idea that crossed my mind…

(I’d prob purchase it with GE tho anyway haha)

Smin stated they are WIP and we will see on the dev stream so im guessing it will work how it does IRL which will be interesting

Today is the 29th of Feb, any sight of a devblog? devstream?

Thank god. Would be a totally gaijin thing to do, is make the Martels basically useless =

WIP which im guessing its gonna be something new so how it should be IRL

Unless its a leap-update

Yep, we’ll just have to wait and see. Though WIP does also mean it could be rather buggy to use for the first 6 months. I just hope its actually usable in SB and not a total pain in the butt to control

Yeah, also other premiums were correctly marked as pre-order in the leaklest and the F-20 not. Maybe it’ll be a pack but no pre-order but am hoping GE premium. TBH, GE is worthless for me since all the high tier premiums are packs… Atleast for aviation. Been hoarding GE for no use with all the packs I got :/

Of course the leaklist can be wrong and it could end up as whatever but am personally not expecting it to be a pre-order.

We should find astronomical justification for Gaijin to add a leap update now.

Similar thing with the Merkava, really feel like they gotta be GE or something…

If by November/December they don’t add any worthy GE premiums I’ll prob get some random GE tanks on discount to pair with my aircraft. Got pretty good jets for most nations and loosely browsed ground, which I don’t really play, and saw tanks do get high tier GE premiums.

here’s to hoping the F-20 will be GE though.

He confirmed that they will work on ground targets.

The question now is how it will work.

A random update with 29 arbitrarily chosen vehicles that have nothing to do with each other would be nice.

That is indeed the most important question. I’m assuming it’ll just be the same as AGM-65s, however we’ll have to wait and see.

That would be the worse case scenario now I think. I was worried about the wording in the Dev post that hinted at it being ASM only. but Mytho shared Smins reply that they can be used vs ground targets.

IRL they were remote controlled by the navigator and were guided onto target manually.

I think it should feature the recoilless rifle mounted on a Vespa and the technical with an inclined sneb rocket pod.

Ah, yes. The vehicle that wasn’t entered into wide scale service because they couldn’t find anyone with big enough balls.
