Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

I am okay with functional, complete prototypes if they are a necessity, but I draw the line at :

  • Things that were never complete / never functional.
  • Imports that were never obtained beyond a trial.

Depressingly real.

I don’t remember them ever saying that. Even more so because of the ability to suggest unfished prototypes.

Which means they are at least considered to be added. The OI is the example as it was passed to the Devs, so it is fully possible to be added, as it has been sent for them to consider.

Stupid question, how can something incomplete be functional? In addition, there are a lot of planes in the game that have never had weapons installed, so the lack of turrets is not a problem in O-I

im assuming based on the length and that its in the naval section that 3rd one is most likely A. a trophy ship or B. a ship sold to another country and under a new name

If that is true, they really should edit this part of the suggestion rules…

the flackpanzer 341 was removed as the turret was only a mock up and plenty of other tanks have been denied for not being in a completed state (Emil 3 for example)

I want more.

WT isn’t a simulator first. It’s a game first. I’m obviously against unrealistic, crazy paper vehicles like the P.1000 ratte.

But why not give a mockup vehicle a chance it never had irl?

That is a mock-up. Not an incomplete prototype that had at least one part work(no matter how short that time was).

Cope moment
The middle one of the middle picture perfectly fits G6-HVM

I mean both, not one or other. Maybe my use of ‘/’ was confusing, apologies.

G6 HVM

Hell yeah, les gooooo!

Let me ask something; since F-18 is likely coming this December, how would F/A-18A compare to F-15E, in a nutshell? And F/A-18C?

I have all of AV-8B+ and F-15C’s modification bonuses ready to be spent; but I wonder if I should save them for F-18 or if I should just go for F-15E, for which I have to grind for half its line as well…

The prototype O-I, while driving under its own power to the training ground, got buried in the mud. Then he fought to get out of that mud until the end of the day. This fight resulted in the failure of the suspension linkages on one side of the vehicle, which was a fatal blow to the I-O tank program. So you can’t say it didn’t work. The suspensions of the Tiger I/II, Elefant and Jagdtiger tanks were also constantly breaking down, so this is not a good argument…

Pretty sure the F-15E wipes the floor with the F/A-18C

From what I understand the only thing that superscedes an F-15E is the EFT with upgraded engines?

F-18A/C seem a bit like sidegrades and more closely related to the F-16C.

both would be worse then the F15E as the E we have is a later version with far stronger engines

the issue with the F15E is it has kinda immediately made stuff like the F18A DOA at least compared to the F15E

Honestly, a game with paper vehicles/mockup vehicles with the level of detail of WT models would be fun.

Italy can have a similar helicopter - AB-47G and/or J

Spoiler

Agusta-Bell AB-47

18A is limited to sparrows, and honestly should have been in the game ages ago. It’s already obsolete as far as top tier is concerned.

18C has AMRAAM’s so will be viable. I still think F-15E is better ASF though.
