We need to get more people to vote for this. Spread it throughout the entire community. This laziness from the devs cannot be tolerated anymore, and we should keep pressuring them for a tech tree F-14D.

It’s not laziness but pure ignorance and greed by the devs. But yes this should be spread more.

Are they going to fix the HUD for the f14D ? And also the cockpit

the problem is the sea of intellects that we have to swim against to convince gaijin that they need to implement the f14D to its full capabilities.

The devs only do what they are ordered to do.
Its either develop what the marketing team or whoever else wants or work somewhere else.
The Devs are doing a really good job.
Its the management that is damaging the reputation of the company and harming the sanitiy of the moderation team here on the forum.

Again,
Devolopers 👏 develop👏
Its not their job to listen to feedback.
The devs and the moderation team are not the ones who should get the backlash for descissions that were propably made internally by the marketing team or someone else.
I know its not a big deal but the devs do not deserve being draged through the mud like that.

That would kinda make the F 14 D less special and more complicated to balance overallnif the F 14 B were to get the 54 C+.
I think a correct implementation of the normal C variant would be more than enough for now.
The F 14 D can be 13.3 that way, while the B stays at 13.0.
If the B still underperforms while the D does not, then it would make sense to give it the C+
*Can the F 14 B carry the aim 54 C+ at all ?
Gaijin did show pure hatred towards its player’s during the April fools event so, yea like wise
Yes this is true, but it’s not like they cant say something, they absolutely can say “ hey, marketing team, maybe this isn’t the best route to take in the long run, we could make a tech tree F14D” or even “maybe we should make the F14D and put it’s actual armament on the aircraft so we keep a realistic game”
They are allowed to have a rebuttal and yes I think the F14B was capable of carrying the 54c+ even though I don’t think it had the software to.

54C+ was dedicated for the 14D, it was never equipped on the 14B nor is it capable of using it. Part of this goes back earlier in the thread when there was talk about the 14D being outfitted with software to use the Aim-120, part of that is probably because the seeker on the 54C+ also used components used in the Aim-120 which required the modifications to the FCS.
Additionally the pylons are a bit different as well since the 54C+ is internally cooled while previous models required external cooling from the pylons.
Navair also states that the 54C+ was only for the 14D.

where does it say they have to
Here’s the thing - if the Dev’s came here, with a good explanation, as to why A: this plane is being made a premium that is just absolute Su-30 food when there are seriously another half dozen options to give us for a ARH premium and put this in the tech tree, and B: why they won’t give us a tech tree version with AMRAAM’s - I’d have no problem.
The problem is - and why I called them out on it in a mile long post, is that they aren’t coming back with anything good. Like basically saying ‘but see, your own thing shows they never made the upgrade to them’ - at which point sorry, I’m gonna put them on full blast when the F-15C GE exists - cause it’s in the same place as the F-14D AMRAAM upgrade of ‘set up but not followed through on’, maybe less so not sure they funded the project, and other vehicles never armed - but armed in this game because it was ‘supposed to’ or ‘considered’ - even though there is material showing the AIM-120 approved and for where on a F-14D, to say nothing of the fact the AIM-120 was literally designed to slot in where Sparrows went on all existing aircraft like F-4’s and F-15’s.
As someone that actually took courses in game design, I have a certain amount of respect for Devs, but you try and pull something like that, as a player - I’m gonna lose that respect real quick.

It’s kinda more amusing when you think about the fact it was a software upgrade that they didn’t want to pay for.

Honestly I don’t know why this company has as many Simps for it. They continuously lite fires that didn’t even need to be made.

F-14D can’t receive 54C+ because it still needs cooling , that 14D can’t provide.
14D used ONLY 54C ECCM/Sealed for that reason, because among the upgrades was the cooling not to be provided by the aircraft.
54C+ can be used by both 14A and B though.
