Nuclear Escalation - Development update from BVV_d

What? . . . you mean this part?? . . .
“P.S. I’ll be honest right away, I won’t be able to constantly monitor this topic and read all the comments, much less reply to them, but our CM team will be monitoring and collecting valuable information and feedback, which we will then analyse and possibly adjust our plans. Therefore, I ask once again to be constructive and stay on topic.”

I guess it is not strictly concerning “top tier”
but everything else in the post is . . . and I asked the question because of that.
And yes . . . I read the title . . . lol

I was just curious, not everyone that plays WT foams at the mouth over top tier,
or nukes or BVR or guided/automated weaponry . . . it’s not a “sin” . . .lol
. . . that’s all . . . it’s a legitimate question(prolly won’t get any answer, but . . )

Why did you remove CCRP from the nuke carriers? Do you think tossing the bombs is too easy?

What are ya gonna do about the current state of the grind. With premium time and vehicles it takes months just to get a vehicle or two (at brs higher than 6.7) and it’s not just me, it’s many others. I’ve talked to a few people and they (and I) wish that the grind was like the lower tiers in the sense that the vehicle that you just got would be spaded before/when you get the next vehicle.

When will we be getting the older anti rad missiles as the the shrike and starm with the air craft that can use them. Plus the ones for other nations.

now with the BUK nerf my only complaint is that the AI 2S6 tunguskas dont have their search radars on so it makes it hard to be aware of them and to fire missiles at them since most ARMs dont cover J band for their tracking radars

The biggest issue is AA intercepting your munitions. When it takes all 4 of your ARMs to take out one AA system, only to then die and lose 15k SL there is no point to doing SEAD

Asymmetry is ok, and encouraged. But currently the game mode is not asymmetric. It’s just imbalanced. The difference in AA have already been somewhat addressed. The issue is the Redfor has incredibly more effective means to deal with AA and players at the same time. A suggestion would be asymmetric battle ratings to force certain vehicles out? Although it would not work in the long run.

I love the idea of helicopters in this mode. Especially if the economy is adjusted (buffed), it could effectively be the best to use their full potential and grind out modules

Only if there was an ARM carrier with more than 4 that we could take into this gamemode

Vulcan confirmed

This is great news and im glad to hear it, especially for the other new game modes. Thank you for actively trying to make the game better Gaijin.

Can we please add the big bombers back and also the BR’s below 13.0 like we had originally in April it was amazing. Can we also maybe for top-tier you could have a B1 B I know that would be a lot of work to model but a TU 160 on the other side would be amazing. Far the best part of the mode in my opinion. was the big nukes as childish as that sounds also, I would recommend replacing the samt with a patriot to make somthing comapreable

knowing these devs their gonna nerf both as if they were on the same level.

personally the mode should be PVE centric, like Heli PVE (Heli mode rework when?), but with PVP as an aspect. Also, WW2 time period for Nuclear Op- I mean Escalation?
As for the other types of vehicles, it would be cool if you could play as a multi-vehicle SAM and if you decide to move the other vehicles could follow.

This has nothing to do with nuclear escalation mode though

The BR brackets need to be better. To me from 13.0 to 13.7 or 14.0 as the limit and then 14.0 to 14.7 because even the 13.7s like the F-15J(M), F-2A and Gripen C, F-16C Block 50 and F-16AMs as well as Su-27SMs, Su-30MK and MiG-29M and SMT have no business facing monsters like the Rafale, Typhoon AESA and Su-30SM/SM2s, it’s not fun and I cannot play my favorite BR because I’m pretty much ineffective against all those true top tiers.

Nothing for GRB? 💔😭🥀

A few things I think would be beneficial for the gamemode:

  • up the spawn point reward for killing aircraft, I feel it’s too little
  • bring back the thing from the event where you get the free planes to use (f4,a10,mig23,etc)- these could also be rotating and change every day/week/month
  • add an airfield spawn protection mechanic, now i know this doesn’t happen as mich, but the easiest way to prevent the strat where people rush to airfields and kill the planes there to get the nuke could be fixed by just giving spawn prot to the airfield and/or adding a mechanic where you can’t spawn camp airfields

others please let me know if you agree/disagree
