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

I just hope a Premium KGV-class eventually makes it to the game; it’s the only way I would ever bother to grind British ships, hahah.

After playing with the American Standards, I vowed to NEVER AGAIN touch ANY ship with such abysmal rates of fire, which is why Nelson just doesn’t do it for me.

It’s not the American 46 second (expert) reload, but 36 seconds (expert) is still slower than most. No gusta.

Hell, even 30 seconds (aced) feel suboptimal when Bismarcks and Gneisenaus reload in 22, Mutsus in 24, and Nagatos in just 21.

But I would still give 30 seconds a pass, just as I do on the Iowa. 35 is just pushing it a bit for me, hahah.

Very much enjoying the Black Prince, having finally bought it this year.

@Smin1080p_WT will the single-shot ESS for British tanks ever be added? Even if balance dictates it will never be rolled out to the full tech tree, wouldn’t it make a non game-breaking selling point if it were added to other UK Premiums, same as it is for the Ram II?

A series of reports for missing ESS systems were made some time ago by the excellent @nathanclawfish eg. Black Prince currently missing its ESS smoke dischargers.

Edit; added reference to Ram II, which does have ESS.

I’ve been thinking the same thing about jeeps and HMMWV’s, and to no avail.

Lol, looking at the full message, it did not come with ESS like the premium one. But probably should as the hull is the same, it’s just the turret that is different.

thats a bug report for the doing then

Sad. Russian need some 11.3 to fill spaa line. People may call bais at this point

They could just move the 2S6 up to 11.3.

Crazy how they will add higher BR vehicles but won’t fill the gap between the vehicle they add and the one before in the same update (or even several after). Then they decompress because they rushed to too high of a BR before fleshing stuff out and then it just leaves more gaps. Or in their infinite wisdom, they’ll add something to fill a gap at too low of a BR without foreseeing that it will be moved up eventually, and then that just solves and then recreates the problem (XM800T moment).

When Ariete C2 with Vulcano 120 ammunition?
@YaSen

They will add it when other nations get electromagnetic cannons and laser weapons.
