Noticed there wasn’t a topic yet specifically talking overall for the new update. But what do you guys think of it?
Personally, I don’t think theres really anything worth really checking out besides the new french jaguar. Also don’t like that the ah64E is given to basically 4 other nations.
The optional changes they made to the SEPv2 just don’t feel right. Like disabling the TUSK kit leaves half of it there and for some reason they just did a lazy and said ‘we’re leaving the panels there, fuck you and your side armour’ to the final tank in the US GR line, a neglected as all hell area, like they’re busy finding another minute modification to a T-72B to add to the game as a whole new tank for USSR top-tier again. Bar some neat QOL the update just… feels mid.
I like the fact that camo net on the Leopard2A4 NL Premium now has some dynamic movement. Or that the chains at the rear of the Namer now has motion too. Nice gimmick. I’ld wish they had done this too all camo nets.
I like the visual improvements of the Tiger II. Again, only gimmick, but i think it nice to see the visual model improved.
Dissapointed thet the Mirage IIIS C70 still did not get the correct Sidewinder.
Dissapointed that the Netz (Mod) is at BR12 without IRCCM, while the F-16A OCU Squadron (France) has AIM-9M and is at BR12 too.
BTR-82AT looks like a ball of fun to go with a fantastic lineup. New KT models are great to see. Britain has their 9.0 lineup bolstered. All and all, things are fine.
It’s no gimmick. It’s a quality of life change, the most important kind of change. For those of us not chasing new toys like some crack addict, anyway.
Some good nuggets here and there but was annoyingly few bug fixes, Including several that should have been sorted months ago (like the GBU bug) and there was a notable lack of new maps.
STILL no m735 fix
STILL no trophy fix
soyuz STILL dominates naval
NO new modes
maps still SUCK
bombers are now even more useless lmao
naval being dumbed down to the lowest denominator AGAIN
guns still dont work on wooden aircraft
Very bad. The su30mk2 is a bad plane. And why did Russia not get any new IFV? Why is gaijin being purposefully ignorant? Why hasn’t there still been implementations of the spall liners to the ZTZ series of tanks?
Air RB 13.3 for both is too low with the armaments they carry. Yes, they are weak against 13.7 and above but the number they carry compared to battle rating equivalents such as the Mig 29 SMT, F16 D/ADF/MLU only carry 6. The radar strength gap between 13.0-13.3 vehicles isn’t substantial enough. Additionally, a lot of the 13.0-13.3s don’t even have an HMD which is the main source of target locking mid match, if you aren’t throwing yourself in BVR.
Ground RB Su-30MK2 (12.3) and J-11A (12.7) doesn’t make sense at all. J-11A has no guided ground ordinance vs the SU30mk2 can carry 8 guided munitions (ex: 6 KH-29s + 2 Kab1500krs). An argument for this difference for ground and air above could be due to the fact the J-11A has a MAW, but the Su-30MK2 has a better rwr in the radar detection bands, more defined direction, and ID of the source.
I can understand why the J-11A could be low due to its rwr sucking, but I don’t understand why something with that many armaments should be that low.
Also is it just me or did something happen graphically this update? I’ve seen a few ytbs downscale their resolution to ultra performance and for one of my matches I was stuck at 12fps with native and 33fps with ultra performance.
*I’m no graphical expert, just something I noticed.
I think something did happen since I went from ~220FPS to ~190. I accidentally disabled VRR and the FPS counter got enabled and that’s how I noticed. Might have been just a one time thing. I haven’t really paid attention to it.
Other nations have a 11.0 or higher IFV. Except for Russia. And there’s plenty of options gaijin can choose to add from, but they just ignore player feedback.
Then buff both of them. What’s that have to do with adding spall liners.
Yeah, I too wish they got something more unique down the BMD, instead of another BMD-4, like something more ancient: BMD-2/1 and their various upgrades… On the topic, what exactly do you wish to get? BMD-4s do have the capability to push past their existing br alone with their speed, gun handling, and ATGMs. Look at some other 10.0+ ifvs only sitting at their place there due to their un-reliable atgms: (spikes, other ir atgms, tow2b/rbs56).
