SPYDER - General Discussion

For sure they will.

I can’t understand Russian, but supposedly they said something about it on the RU stream.

Starting to make the first bug reports, I’ll post them here once done (as well as other peoples bug reports if they are made)

no matter how many times youd say “work in progress” people will still say things are wrong…

DERBY missile on it doesn’t seem to work yet.

The current Derby has been confirmed to be a placeholder. I hope this means it will get it’s 40km range I-Derby ER

I’m sorry, but when you say placeholder, what does it mean exactly? English isn’t my main language and I sometimes mess with vocabulary.

A weapon/system/vehicle thats already in game to be a “filler” for something that is added in a very early stage to “visualize” a part of it’s capability. It uses something that it mostly doesn’t have until what it actually has is made/modelled, in this case the I-Derby/I-Derby ER or Python 5 for the SPYDER AIO.

Glad the Derby is a placeholder. Also glad to see y’all already on top of the reports!

Wonder if they will zoom its 3rd person perspective out a bit. It’s so huge you’re just blinded by the launch rack taking up the whole screen lmao.

Yeah, it was said so in the stream. Missiles are beautiful but no need to see them from so close 😅. Chances are though that giving more FOV or reducing zoom ‘would’ give an advantage according to Gaijin so…

The “gunner” and “binocular” viewpoints are wrong (too low). always seeing just a gray wall when using them.

well, the spyder is very much WIP, so we will have to wait

All of the multi-vehicle systems bar the SLM seem to be very WIP.

The SLAMRAAM is Australian and has a poltergeist residing inside it.

To the guys on dev, does Spyder have access to any other camo’ then default yet?


nope.
but gaijin would probably add camos, even tho its unrealistic,
like for example the Israeli “winter” camo, doesn’t even exist in real life

Can’t get over how good it looks

Can’t get over the fact we’ve finally got it

Man I’m so happy.

Derby-ER’s and an all black camo would just be the icing and cherry atop the cake

Are we getting pythons 4 and 5 or just derby?

Hello everyone, I am aware this is just the first wave of the dev server and the vehicle is still W.I.P, However i decided to make a list of things i would love to see in the next patch of the dev server or the live server, Feel free to add stuff if i missed any!

  • Camera angle: Probably the most obvious but i think we’d like the camera to be a bit further away from the vehicle so we can see where we drive

  • Missiles: Currently the missiles used are the type 81c and the Derby, I am hopeful they will change the Derby to the ER version in the near future as it is the one the AIO uses, And of course replace the Type 81c with the python 5

  • Radar: currently the radar seems to spin around rather then working constantly across all sides, The whole point of this specialized radar is avoiding blind spots at all time, Each of the radar screens is looking in a different direction to provide 360* coverage at all times

I did not mention bugs such as the locking issues and changing targets with this vehicle as it is a bug across all vehicles at the moment

Currently we have the type 81c as a place holder for a secondary missile type, I am pretty sure that second missile will be the python 5
