Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

Good god, don’t say that to a US main otherwise Chernobyl would of looked like a picnic lmao

Isreal has it’s own set of challenges and given the feedback on that and developments since, we don’t plan to add every possible seperate nation unless they have a decent chance of standing by themselves without themselves needing multiple sub trees of their own.

We have already been working over the the last year + on sub trees to help fill the existing major nations, both to gap full and provide variety. But most importantly sub trees also provide these nations a chance to exist in game where they would otherwise struggle as a standalone nation and be impractical.

Though could I ask, how many subs could a nations get as depending who you ask people say France got 3 subs while others say they’ve got one.

Those were not Israeli planes. A French air squadrons were temporarily based in Israel to support the Israeli invasion of Egypt. The French aircraft were painted with Israeli Air Force colors to hide French involvement in the war. The French pilots continued to fly the aircraft, but the roundels on the aircraft were repainted with David Stars after landing at Lod airbase.

Alright then, put India in Israel. One stone two birds. The content is more compatible than with Britain, and it makes more sense technologically, diplomatically, politically and, arguably, historically

BeNeLux is one.

Oh god

Which is why I have such issue with both South Africa and especially India. Not a single gap has even been looked at.

OSA and Strela just came at the same BR as the Stormer AD, Stormer HVM and Now Tracked Rapier. So no Gap

T-90 came at the same BR as the Challenger 1s, which are quite frankly pretty good, especially when fixed, so again no gap. When things like the Jordanian Callenger Falcon exist, its a real shame a C&P T-90 was even considered

Mig-21 came at a BR where you have the Tornado F3 and Harrier Gr7, which I consider both superior as it is. but there are loads of other options for this BR range as well from both Britain and South Africa

Jaguar IS is just a straight downgrade over the Tornado Gr1 in most practical gameplay because of its BR.

There has yet to be a single Indian vehicle that actually does much for our TT except make the grind worse.

Even with South Africa, you have the Bosvark and ZA-35 at BRs where you already have SPAAGs but nothing between and its a major gap in the tree

The majority of Indian vehicles in game are British in origin and there are many others of that kin. Those that are not provide gameplay alternatives to what Britian itself offers.

There are no plans to introduce India to Israel.

That means no Tejas, no Su-30MKI, no Rafale EH, no mirage 2000H, no HF-24, etc. And I find that really sad

It would be nice to tackle the German aviation research tree, wouldn’t it?

Capability gap. People wanted them, asked for them and wanted alternatives to the Stormer at one of the most popular BRs for Britian.

Gameplay alternative. Provides a different gameplay to what Challengers offer. This was explained in detail in the blog. Also not a copy and paste. It’s a unique model variant.

Neither the Tornado or Harrier fill the role the Bison fills as a more lightweight and agile fighter.

It’s not intended to be a peer to the Tornado. The Jaguar IS is very good in the air to air department and an important development of the Jaguar that is logically connected to the British tree.

You have made your opinion on this very clear multiple times. It’s not needed to restate it every time someone mentions India.

Conveniently this seems to have entirely missed the Gripen, which filled a very big gap for the British tree.

Nowhere have we ruled out any aircraft for the British tree that are Indian. Simply we have said that sub tree is not an indication every single option may come.

Though that beg’s the question, since BeNeLux is class as one sub could future nations be regions too, say “The United Arab Federation” be possible as it would be classed as one nation ?

I just to clarify I’m not wanting this nation nor pushing for it, I’m just using it as an example.

Only because certain alternatives were hard denied repeatedly.

But if I had known the cost of the Gripen, being the total and complete destruction of BOL and any semblence of historical modeling for them. Id have wanted it to never ever come and now we have the Typhoon, it serve no real purpose anymore, especially as it has the weakest ARH missiles

That begs the question in the future if / when a need arises. We are not at that point right now. BeNeLux itself is still quite new.

Then I can’t think about any new standalone nation, all of candidates are on similar level to India in terms of options and/or require multiple nations in a single TT.
