Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

So Gaijin C&P the Thai M60A3 TTS from the ROC M60A3 TTS wich in itself is just a C&P from the American M60A3 TTS despite bouth Thai and ROC having diffrent models in RL due to not possesing the ERA packaged like the American does.

Would have been a C&P from Israels Machbet (- Stingers) not even been closer to what Thailand operates instead the base M163?

Ban in 3,2,

how long does a CM Update usually take to Manufacture?

The same thing with Hungarian and Israeli Shilkas, both had export ZSU-23-4V1 variant, which is slightly different visually. When I tried to report Hungarian one they answered: “prove that they didn’t also use the variant we have in the game”.

Yes, I am whining about a nation getting a vehicle they never had for no other reason than Gaijin being too lazy to have a model for it made. Especially if it accounts for 1/4 of the subtree that was added in the update.

This is the M163. Take a good look at the radar and sideskirts, they will be important later.

This is an M163A1, note how the radar and sideskirts changed

And here's a few images of the Thai M163A1s

They are apparently still on the internal system,

Gunjobs been asked before about Buc S1/S2 & Sea Vixen Napalm bug reports which were submitted on the old system. They are still active reports. Which is actually worse, since they must just be ignoring 3+ year old reports

Yes and no for GB.

Whilst I agree in terms of vehicles, we may have more in terms of quantity. In terms of quality, I would disgree

For example:

Air, most of our Rank 8 aircraft have major flaws (the biggest one being the totally fake modeling of BOL) which limits their performance to an annoying degree. Most of them are okay, but a chore to play right now with several still with game breaking bugs that do actually render them pointless to even touch.

Ground, we dont have a single rank 8 worthy vehicle at this time, and half our rank 7s barely work.

naval… is actually okay… but the top tier is unplayable to due to having 10.0 ships at 8.7 rendering 7.7 unplayable which is a real shame. Those were fun ships.

So whilst I agree we dont need anything new specifically, we really need older stuff actually finished and I would be more than happy with having 20+ vehicles overhauled instead of anything new.

(That having been said. Would love for a new game mechanic like ARM or CBUs)

I wonder if we will get more information on this in the next CM Covert Disclosures 🤔

I wonder what gaps they plan to fill. I dont think i’ve seen many filled yet. Only one that comes to mind is the M163 for japan to bridge the gap a little they had in their SPAA line

I mean it is the update for it and their not that many new things they can show off.

The “big” options for this update I can think of:

  • ARM (Plus SEAD PvE Gameplay)
  • ECM
  • Subs
  • Sweden Coastal?
  • New TT?

Isn’t Swedish naval off the cards ?

Subs I don’t think it’s really that Christmasy sure for the next huge naval update in June but not for a christmas one.

I don’t even know that ECM and ARM’s are lol

I dont see why it would be. If nothing else, they have plenty of coastal options and at the very least enough bluewater till about 5.7/6.0

ECM stuff like Jammers and electronic warfare (they hinted at something that might be this in the last CM chat)

ARM, Anti radiation missiles. Things like AGM-88 and ALARM

I dont really think that matters all that much. and its october update not decemeber update

No, that would be way too much work for them, we have let the unpaid intern get at least 1 hour of sleep a day :P

True

All previously passed suggestions from the old forum were already archived.

And the same with any existing bug reports. If it still existed, the internal one would remain.
