Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

Ha ha as long as AJAX comes with Javelin we will be happy. ;)

Even though I haven’t played Naval all that much lately because of the issues, I can’t say I’m not excited about South Dakota…

Spawning Iowa and then having to jump into a 17 year reload Standard was one of the least fun parts, hahah. South Dakota will provide the U.S a good second spawn.

I would look forward to Prince of Wales, but unfortunately I don’t have U.K, and I wouldn’t purchase Nelson, as I don’t like slow reloads xD. If they released a Premium KGV, things would have been different…

I am also looking forward to Japan and China finally getting proper SAMs, Ajax, and BMPT.

Also, Eurofighters with potentially functional radars!

I’m sad to not see M1A2 SEPv3, but this is just the first list after all. There’s still time…

ah yes no 640 for ussr but abrams for china. honestly that is just a joke now.
Especially with another T-72 based abomination that is added to USSR instead of proper top tier tank.

I mean has the javelin actually been integrated in the RWS on the Ajax or is it still in the prototype stage?

As i said doubt it

Ofc, though I hope its complaints that a Indian lineup got added or something xD (not copy paste, actual local vehicles or UK based versions, because theres going to be groups who complain about that too).

That dedicated update came 2 years ago, in December 2023, when Rank VIII Ground was introduced…

Ever since, they’ve only added like 3 Rank VIII MBTs, and the rest are just former Rank VIIs that were moved into Rank VII.

Probably want to give the chinese playerbase something so that the J-10C isn’t instantly made DOA by the arrival of the AESA EFTs.

Maybe after 5 years of even more air focused updates.

There are 2 questions about this Freccia:

  1. Will it get an access to INGWE and Kornet as advertised or just Spikes?
  2. Will it have the same amount of additional missiles in the hull as a regular Freccia?

Cool… and how exactly does that contradict my speculation that new rank 8 MBTs wont come in a wave? Like update 1.87?

Yes they could always trickle in 1 or 2 top tier tanks every now and then but for many nations a big leap like APS is still missing on their MBTs.

And what is speaking against the addition of rank 9?

I just find it sad that they’ve added like 3 Rank VIII MBTs in 2 years, while they’ve added like 25 Top Tier jets… and it appears this update will once again bring twice as many jets compared to Rank VIII MBTs.

This is precisely what I fear. More and more new Ranks just to add 3 new vehicles on each + whichever vehicles they move up from the previous Rank.

It almost feels like a strategy to make Top Tier Premiums obsolete and requiring newer Top Tier Premiums.

My friends recently purchased Rank VII Premius to grind Rank VIII… and if they now make Rank IX just to move VIIIs up once again, all this stunt would do is make the Rank VII Premiums useless to grind, as they release new shiny Rank VIII Premiums.

They’ll prolly just get the c-5 treatment. Not like range will ever really matter until they fix mutipathing or make notching more realistic.

There are images, it can use it…
The problem is AJAX is very new and so unlike Jaguar/KF-41 and Puma it is not in service.

But without an FnF missile it’s 10.3 at best
40mm CTAS is not a great at killing tanks compared with the 30mm dart on the BMP-2M

My guess is that Gaijin will implement the Ajax as a Cv9040 in a way. 10.0+ with just the CTA40 and no missiles.

All except J-10C are RP pits that will have at most 0.5 in game differences compared to existing Typhoons

Well, as far as I know, AESA radars are the best, while Typhoon’s radar is barely functional.

That alone will make it feel like a whole new game hahahah.

Still embarrassing that it’s stuck on AIM-9Ms and nerfed 120s, though. In a meta where crap like MICA and 77-1s dominate.

It is kinda weird having to play 70$+ for a tank that will ultimately be obsolete when it comes to grinding the future top tier tanks. But for a while now I have been questioning the future motives of gaijin and I personally think that they will expand the rank system to an even 10 (X). they have been doing a lot of tec tree reformating in the recent updates, nothing major I know. Tbh i dont even know if they could do sth like this / if there are consumer protections against such a move (like u said with the premiums becoming less valuable)

No planes or tanks for WW2 Japan.
