Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

or get a friend on, and run ASW battleship combo? which honestly sounds pretty fun

See, this is the issue.

You should never need to depend on counting on bringing in friends to be able to have an enjoyable experience- that should come as standalone the moment you queue up for a match alone.

That’s leaving aside the fact that maybe there wouldn’t be many people who would want to be a dedicated ASW, the same way only very few people would want to be a dedicated SPAA, except it’s even more extreme in Naval’s case, since each spawn has the potential of lasting for much longer than a spawn in Ground Battles.

Not to mention that most ASW vessels would just be exterminated on sight by larger vessels the very second a match begins, just like all lighter vessels already are.

if they added a greater variety of objectives, which could only be done by destroyers and lighter ships either by just capability or some feature like scouting, then more ppl would want to play destroyers.

they could also add maps that use terrain to protect smaller ships

Not gonna lie, I’m mostly here at this point for the modern stuff. People will argue, but the WW2 stuff especially, is fairly adequately represented in game.

In general, we’re mostly at the stage of the game’s development where everything left to come is going to be hairsplitting over what is basically cosmetic differences in form or in function.

Top tier air is the last place where major additions can really be made. There is no SEP v4, T-14 Armata is hardly in serial production at all, most Western European tanks are about done as well (aside from the Leo 2), ground is about finished without going full paper-tank mode.

Yeah, whenever Top Gun 3 comes out, lmao.

the solution is only 1 imo, made each vehicle “class” have it own game mode, you want bb vs bb battle? here surface ship only mode, you want to play with or against submarine? here naval combined mode, be ready to spawn asw ship tho

the same with ground, you want ht vs ht, or mbt vs mbt battle? here ground only mode, you want to play with or against cas? here ground combined mode, be ready to spawn spaa or cap tho

i have heard its in the works. but imo, a US nuclear powered carrier shouldve come with the F-14A, specifically the enterprise class since they used a few enterprise class carriers as filming locations for the first movie

Su-27K and F-14A should’ve come out at the same time, tbh. The Top Gun 2 move was a cash grab (I get it), and no one will convince me otherwise.

eh su27k is like 20 years newer than the F-14A iirc, theres definietly a tech difference, but su33/su27k shouldve come earlier

it made sense as the first 4th gen but yeah there was definietly a monetary incentive

Less than 20, but sure. Su-33 and F-14B absolutely should’ve come out at the same time.

if pheonixes were done right id agree wholeheartedly, even in their current state they shouldve come out at same time (minus the r73 though), and with one of the better AIM-7 to balance against the r27er

Only production tank I know isn’t in game yet would be the T-14 and SEPv3.

Edit: let me correct this now. Production tank that is in-service.

The Su-33 is much better than the F-14B.

Possibly, but the AIM-54C’s kind of make up for it.

People shouldn’t have to wait an entire year to get the things they want. Knowing Gaijin and how they operate, this will just encourage more drip feeding than is already present.

No, there is no “possibly”. The Su-33 beats out the F-14B in almost every situation. AIM-54Cs make no large difference.

I disagree, only thing that really makes it unfair is the HMD+R73. AIM-54C is a wash against R-27ER’s.

And you say that you’re not biased.

Likely someone who hates the notion that older periods should get their additions.

To be honest I find the forums have an issue, that often leads to the ones interested in WW2 (like me) being attacked over wanting the missing stuff from then.

“You have plenty, why do you want more”, “You get additions. points to BPs, Events, etc” (note never count non-TT additions as part of stuff 90% of the time as they are considered unattainable)

And other ways to tell these WW2(and even early Cold War) interested players then shouldn’t get anything anymore.

I haven’t played the F-14, but I’ve seen a ton of Phoenix spam. And the N001 is really a crummy radar. Just speaking my honest opinion. I’m sure the truth is somewhere between yours and mine.
