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

Changelog my dude 😎

man if there was only a place where they list changes

I think the change is big enough to warrant a devblog, especially since they are asking for feedback.

In a Br where only 2-3(?) other tanks have LRF. It will be extra useful in a full uptier tho

With all due respect, it’s only on the dev server dev server. For all we know it could still considerably change before release, which makes them tricky subjects for devblogs.

So are the regenerative steering changes? That will completely change gameplay in ground, just as these missile changes are set to completely change top tier air. Just feels too important to not have an official thread explaining the changes.

If properly implemented (which can be a big if when it comes to Gaijin) it won’t do much for overall top tier ground gameplay.

It will only significantly change top tier gameplay if they botch the implementation, like they did with the Leo 2’s regenerative steering. However killing off a whole series of top tier MBTs isn’t what I would consider a positive change to top tier GRB.

No, it will completely change ground no matter what. It will be a good change, as you won’t be able to instantly change direction at top speed anymore/drift your tank, thus making blind rushing much more riskier. This is a good change (like the ARH buffs) but it is still a change.

is the r77-1 overtuned? or fine as is? I know it is the devserver and everything is “subject to change” just look at the clip

it achieves 80 degrees of AOA, I’d say it way too much.

I have used it in the Type 10s and properly implemented RS is not the game changer you make it out to be.

Looking at your profile I assume you have only tried RS on the Leo 2s? Which currently have a severely bugged implementation of RS.

^^^^^Another example why these changes likely aren’t getting a devblog (yet).

I haven’t even tried it. But I know that you cannot drift your tank at top speed anymore. That is a big change lol

Yes it is likely still overtuned. But I think a devblog should be posted, if not now then early next week.

Welcome to the new age, gonna miss all old War Thunder missiles, thankfully I’ve lived through them!

All of the missiles currently reach impossible AoA on launch

That checks out.

Still seems plenty quick to me:

(Untitled - Clipped War Thunder with Medal.tv)

The video wouldn’t load directly on the forum, so the link to the clip will have to do.

Totaly balanced

My prediction is :
IIR missiles next patch, Stealth fighters December patch, and long range ARH somewhere between next patch and like June update next year

super highly enjoyable MCM gameplay on 3x3 millimeter maps

IIR would be pretty fun hoping we see the Harrier GR9A with ASRAAM, but more then likely the only british jet to get ASRAAM will be the EFT as they wont give it to the Tornados so they dont get up BR and I dont imagine we will see it on the early EFT

(AESA) specifically
edit: nvm i didn’t read fully
