Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

I can’t only but imagine the awfull experience at top tier when Rank IX arrives.
We haven’t gotten RP reductions the last time, more top tier premiums and more expensive premiums.

When it comes to the whole Su‑47 or F‑16XL debate, I’m honestly not bothered. As long as whatever they add is balanced properly, they could throw in the Wright brothers’ flyer for all I care. Content is content. At some point they’re going to have to introduce new nations or start dipping into rare and prototype aircraft anyway, because it’s only going to get harder to find fresh additions for the existing tech trees.

In my view, the more content the better. Variety keeps the game alive, and I’d rather see them experiment and expand than let things stagnate.

WTH, i leave for like 4 days and there 1200 new messages, what info came out for this lol.

Which debate?

basically people are mad because Su47 that was never armed and never intended to be armed wasnt only accepted as a suggestion it also passed for the devs when they have constantly shot down the EAP for the same reason, obviously it being passed doesnt mean it will come but its still fair to be annoyed about

For the ARB EC wanters (chads) or the people waiting for the aerial warfare mode, this thread might be a great inside on how it might turn out

Yeah, but Gaijin is predictable right… Everyone knew this was going to happen. Same thing happend with the Yak-141.
It’s all bad untill Russia needs it.

There was a whole thing about the Su-47 potentially coming as it was said in the “2026 guess list” and then passed to the devs. Problem with that is the Su-47 had no provisions for weapons, a radar, or RWR and seemingly no plans for any so if added it would have entirely fictional equipment and if it was added it should mean other tech demonstrators should be added too like the EAP.

And then the F-16XL was teased in the 2026 decal and it was argued that it too wouldn’t be suitable however this one did already have F-16A Block 10 avionics, carried AIM-9L and carried dummy AIM-120’s in preparation for including more advanced avionics from the F-16C’s (Block 30 most likely) if the program didn’t lose out to the F-15E.

@Rowiek

The main reason this reply is late is because I actually wrote it a few days ago, but it ended up sitting in my drafts. I haven’t played the game for a bit, so I couldn’t post it at the time.

It never had mobility like that. What in the copium is this lol.

This is also false.

Gaijin can you hire this guy to do the VWS and RWR’s instead of just making them all sound the same?

His work is incredible (especially for the British Typhoons since instead of giving them their own VWS you gave them a C&P of Bitchin Betty which you’ve used for all the western aircraft you’ve given VWS).

Speaking of asking the world with Indonesia, I really find it hilarious that in the past US mains trying to claim the Commonwealth Hornets even though they would be dead weight and actually worse than the premium one in terms of loadouts especially with the early Australian one being the worst early Hornet due to the loadouts, air frame wise they’re completely the same, same speed, same weight, same everything.

I’m sure with this information now we can finally stop with the ridiculous back and forth about how the US should get them because it’s not only getting old but ruining the forum experience for all. Some of you suggested Canadian skins for the early Hornets well I got news for you they’ve already done that via the moments of valour pack so that’s already been done and gone. However on the question of C&P some of you still don’t like C&P and that’s fine but when nation pride blinds people to have a bias outlook up to the point of not the seeing facts that’s when you need to stop.

At the end of the day gaijin has made their bed it’s now up to you to either man up and accept that or if you don’t you know how to find the exit, I’m sure most forum users now would like this endless bickering to end so my question to the people who don’t except gaijin decision regarding the Hornets, do you have what it takes to pick those two options ?

I’d like to personally thank Smin and the forum moderators for their kindness and extremely high patients, I know things can get messy on here at times but at the end of the day anger can get the better of us sometimes. I hope with this long statement we can finally close this debate once and for all.

New Datamine.

Another Russian Ace.
Apparently, Dutch, Belgique, Luxembourg, Italian, Finnish, Swedish, Hungarian, Japanese, Chinese, Romanian, German, Israeli, etc… Aces and heroes don’t exist.
It’s always Russia, US or Britain…

M1E3 will come before SEPv3

thx

What I don’t get is just blocking out these nations even after WW2. They could just not add anyone that fought for those nations during the war but instead add some people from well before / after the war who didn’t have anything to do with it.
