Next Major Update "Sky Odyssey" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

Should be, they use the same autoloader iirc, only difference is the turret being an XC-8

10.7, but anyway you gotta uptier that poor christ to 11.7 unless you wanna play him alone

should and premium don’t go well together heh

XC-8 has a 5s reload, the Harimau also prototyped the turret iirc

Weird, feels like they could give the Harimau worse ammo and have it fit on the 9.7 or 9.3 Japanese lineup

it would be a good solution as it is an all in all worse/sidegrade to type 16 (9.7)

@Smin1080p_WT With the recent missile-range updates and the addition of more standoff weapons with launch ranges exceeding the ~128×128 km size of some of the largest current maps, I was wondering if there are any plans to develop significantly larger maps in the future.

Would Gaijin ever consider a broader size overhaul for Sim/EC maps in particular, such as Afghanistan, Denmark, etc., to better accommodate the increasing engagement ranges and capabilities of modern aircraft? A number of top-tier aircraft now have radars and weapons capable of operating well beyond the practical confines of some existing maps.

I’m also curious whether there are technical limitations involved, such as rendering/performance issues, that make substantially larger maps difficult to implement. With some aircraft being capable of carrying over an hour of fuel, especially when using additional drop tanks, there is potentially quite a lot of endurance available for longer-range gameplay.

Do you think larger maps or an overall expansion of the Sim/EC map scale is something that could realistically be explored in a future update, or would the technical challenges make this impractical?

I’d say tracked vehicles currently are better than wheeled because of the more close quarters environment maps we have.

It’s why the CT-CV never really is seen to often when players own the CV90105, besides it slow and massive lol. Terrible combo

Okay so it’s not fully over for Poland then

also is it the same with the 120mm version or is it longer?

@Pheonix_RX01 doesn’t it have the same autoloader as all the others? so 7.5 secs to him too?

Does it not use the same autoloader?

Hm, well then, is there a brochure or image that shows the 5s reload for the XC-8?

@Zulizia do you by any chance have a source for it?

Btw do you have any docs for the multi wheel turning function on the Patrias?

nope

Cockerill man says so and I believe him
