Next Major Update - Rumor Roundup & Discussion

@Smin1080p_WT

Hey smin I was wondering if theirs a limit to how many variants of vehicles that could be added and could vehicles like the NF-14A,late model f-14A, and f14D(r) still be added. not asking if their soon to come im asking if we can still expect to get more or is their a limit?

Highly unlikely these would be tt variants

There are 32 Spitfires and 29 Bf 109s in-game, I think it would be safe to say that there is no upper limit for how many variants of a vehicle can be added

We don’t have any more plans for further F-14s at the current moment in time. The additional TT F-14D was already an additional one added to plans later as per feedback.

So at least for the foreseeable future, we don’t plan more.

Oh okay thanks for you’re time

@Smin1080p_WT I dunno if its asked yet but will the B-33 feature the Polish modification of a bigger fuel tank under the fuselage? it’d be a shame if it were just a basic licensed IL-10 without that “Polish-ness” to it since Indonesia received the polish-modified versions

the fuel tank would be bigger basically

On here, the reaction is pretty tame compared to Reddit, where the entire comment section is filled with angry French mains complaining that it’s either C&P or supposedly not what the tech tree needed. But that seems to be the reaction whenever a Benelux addition gets announced. Meanwhile, the Netherlands went over a year without a new ground vehicle, with the last Dutch ground addition being in June 2025, so I’d say it was more than fair for them to finally get something new.

Then you have people complaining that it’s a 35 mm Oerlikon platform based on the Leopard 1, making it too similar to the Gepard to be added to the game. But if that’s the standard we’re going by, then we might as well remove the Type 87, the ItPsV 90, and any potential OF-40 with a PRTL turret as well, since they all fulfil essentially the same role as the Gepard. as the type 87 is almost identical gameplay wise, and the OF-40 was even designed to fill a similar niche to the Leopard 1 in the first place.

Most ground additions until now didn’t fiull any capability gaps. The Gepard thing is the only vehicle that doesn’t really have a french equivalent (since AMX 30 is “only” 30mm and lost its APFSDS).
I myself is pretty stocked that it’s added to France, even if I feel that 35mm SPAA are overall terribly balanced still (especially since only the Falcon and AMX 30 lost their APFSDS belt)

Will we have a trailer for the new update today?

No.

In what world does Gaijin drop trailers before the first dev blogs?

Well, then you seem to be in the minority, because from wat i’ve seen most people seem to be furious that the prtl got announced, despite the Netherlands having gone over a year without any new ground vehicles.

Most likely not until the 29th of this month at the earliest. The trailer usually does not come until about 2 weeks after the first dev blog, and those will (hopefully) start next week

In a world where I don’t spend my entire day keeping up with every little detail about some game—a world where some nerd comes along and says something as if it were just so obvious.

Thanks for the information, my friend.

@Smin1080p_WT Hey, I have a couple of questions for you; I hope you can answer them all. Let’s begin: About Cluster Munitions, will all NE Br jets get some, or is it reserved for top-tier only? Second, about Submarines, will the big Nations get them first, like the US, Japan, UK, USSdR, or all nations at once? It would be lovely if you could answer this! Or should I wait for details?

Now I’m wondering if the BP german td can be another variant of the waffentrager, the Krupp-Ardelt one.

cope for tomorrow

I actually have one more question regarding The TT F-14D(VF-11) why was this variant added and not the F-14D(R) that has a suggestion even before F14D(VF-11) was added witch doesn’t have suggestions thread for it?

Something something, “all will be revealed in time”

(Or something, idk. They just dropped it a couple hours ago)
