SPYDER - General Discussion

according to the datamine, yes
i dont think i will be able to differentiate

and toplite, while still missing more than half of its true capability, has very nice zoom now

just based on a test drive, the python definitely feels better, at least for those close-mid ranges

To anyone here who knows how to make an official suggestion - It’d be nice if we could get one going to give Spyder an all black GE camo (As its depicted IRL) - Sort of like how Chally Black Night got one.

Currently it just has the same old Desert/Winter/Tricolour.

regardless of how we receive the spyder, it is the best vehicle we couldve possibly get for ground,
i am very curious about the following israeli vehicle they will add
putting aside another variant of the magach, tiran, f15 f16…

the normal camos are fine, i mean
regular camos are well, accepted,

Spoiler

regular camo (olive)
Merkava-Mk4m-whiteback01

desert camo (yelllo-ish)

“snow camo” well, not really a camo, since only 2 camos exists in the idf, but you could add it as a merkava covered in snow.

and the forth one, the tricolor camo, which was experimental

but spyder doesn’t have a lot of camos,
only the regular dark navy / black color,
the only thing I can think off that can be close to a camo is a, spyder with a rafael logo.

ofc there can be a lot of marketplace skins, since rafael was exported to many countries,
but there can be only 1 regular camo in my opinion

So, with SLM getting major buff to flight model, SLAMRAAM getting C7 at least in name only for time being, if you sniff enough copium it might mean Spyder will get Derby ER to keep up with them.

I’m still waiting for a SPYDER buff.

Can anybody share a short video of the changes? How the python 5 behaves now and such

After 10 days I still got no response on the bug report about the Phyton 5 beeing smokeless.
Would appreciate it if you could click “ I have same issue“ so it gets seen by the devs.

Yeah i just saw Mat’s impressions of it and it looks terrible. 9.7km already Mach 1.01.
Terrible stuff honestly.
And it still seems to wobble erratically.
I hope its still, as they like to call it, “WIP”, but we will have to wait and see.

And is that recent ie this week statement, or previous one when new SAMs were castrated in general?
