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

@Smin1080p_WT

Can you provide any information as to what the NE brackets are going to look like on live?

Is it going to be random MM like ARB
rotating brakcets like ASB
Periodic event like brackets where it changes every few weeks like we’ve had so far
or something else?

We’ve seen no information as far as I am aware regarding what the MM will be for NE

On dev it’s just a toggle and you jump into matchmaking with any jet just like ARB.

So its probably gunna be random MM then. Thats a shame, still at the mercy of uptiers

I hope they do go for the rotating brackets like in Sim. Atleast then most BR’s will get a chance to be on the top and you won’t be at the mercy of the random matchmaking.

Yeah, that would be my hope too

Smin can you tell them to write the F15EX dev blog a bit quicker? getting a bit tired of waiting

rumors says that J-16 wont be dead on arrival because it is dead before arrival 🫩🫩🫩but we will still grind it 🫩

Is it actually that bad? Ive seen absolutely nothing about it, other than chinese mains complaining about PL-12.

I have no idea how its FM performs relative to something like the F-15C GE, what its CM count is (which was the big issue with the J-15T) or how the radar is looking

no

they are just being overly dramatic, like always

Ah, figures

FM is better than the F-15 GE

Yeah, it will do fine then

I was already excited for it since it looks cool, but after the slight engine buff and weight reduction it looks really fun now.

And an added bonus is that it’ll likely be considerably better at multirole/CAS than the J-15T and J-10C.

Flight model is not the problem when the missiles are bad (can be out rolled + only turns like 25g) and the radar is copypasted from the j15t last time i looked on the dev server

How different should the radar be then?

they absolutely don’t know what should be different

(speaking irl) China has extremely tight OPSEC, so we don’t even know the name of the radar of the J16, let alone his capabilities, some people are angry that it has copypasted stats from the J10C and J15T (which is not bad per-se)

So it’s a mixture of copium and what is gaijin even meant to do? because we lack even basic info about it

Basically, if Russia has it, then China has it x100

more missile changes coming soon

Well of course, have to fix old gen before new gen tilts everything on its head.

I predict at least 2 BR decompressions happening before the year is done.
