Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

@Smin1080p_WT Any chance we could see the TALIOS pod replacing the DAMOCLES pod on the Rafale C F3 now that the pod is in the game?

@Smin1080p_WT
I am gonna rephrase my inquiry

This is the bug report in question

Here is what the issue is with the vehicle


How can they say that the Ammo is external when it clearly is internal?

How come absurd reports like the one to asking to buff the BMPT not only get a response within an hour of posting them but also get accepted while providing no sources whatsoever or anything of substance when other reports sit there unanswered for months?

Money bias

May i ask what the case with BOL is because doing a fair amount with sweden i have some sources on it
Bol went from a chaff only launcher that at first produced the chaff strips used in the KB Pod found on the AJ37, a smaller more efficient chaff was developed into the 90s and at the dawn of the 2000s the BOL IR was developed

If you have any issues with the chaff then that is likely the reason, the fact it originally used Large Chaff strips as opposed to the more effective smaller chaff

As for IR to my knowledge only the one from Chemring has been fully developed so there should be little issues as to the BOL IR capabilities

Now ive no clue when the Large Chaff was swapped out for the other chaff but it was prior to the introduction of the Typhoon and JAS39C just maybe not the Shar or JA37

I think you do not understand the difference.
Here is how a example of a internal belt looks like

@Smin1080p_WT Is there any reason that we’re not seeing the AAM-4B being added for the F-2A in the Japanese tech tree?

At the moment its planned to keep TALIOS on the Rafale M. However in a future update it may come to the C also.

ah I understand…
So this is internal, right?

It very much looks like one, but we would need an expert oppinion to know for sure.

the atgms would probably rip apart the turret and perforate the ammo when they detonate
the hull 30mm stowage has nowwhere to go when it detonates as either the tank has 0 mine resistance, less than a fiat 500 even, and the explosion is entirely directed to below the tank and probably burning away rubber as it does so making the tracks useless if theyre rubber but it’d look sick as hell.
or the ammunition has nowhere to go but everywhere so into the crew

I hope whatever br changes they do arent done till the new year because i am really enjoying playing 9.0 with near constant downtiers or at worse at tier battles.

Can’t wait for “Ammo belts are doused in low flashing point Diesel for wet stowage” - not a bug.

BMPT can be killed?

Clearly a marketing lie

I mean diesel in fairness i think has an ever so slightly lower chance of going boom than basic petrol due to the nature of it
but it also must combust at some point soooooooo
idk, im no expert on diesel and petrol but there is a mild amount of logic to it

unoffical Dev response:
“we believe physics are a lie and the manufacturer fell for it. not a bug”

It makes no sense whatsoever, why would the crew willingly ride in a vehicle full of diesel fumes lol.

isnt that every russian tank anyway?

Maybe they like the smell

tbf when i smell diesel im happy bc i know theres some form of combustion engine nearby and thats well wicked
