The successor of the F-104 is the F-16... Just sayin.
Thanks for improving the performance of the lightning f.6 gaijin
The Other Mozdok (Battle which is with A and B cap point) map part for ground should be fix, since there's much campers in that map.
why are we not getting the tier 1 Italian prem boat for free for completing tasks? you stopped at the jakobs J8A plane. Why have you stopped doing these free premiums for new branches of the army?
Dear Gaijin, please add Campania to the locations for the British medal ITALY STAR. Thank you in advance.
I don't want to look ungrateful. I'm REALLY happy to finally have Japan helis, BUT that UH-1B.... with NO loadout, only 32 FFAR and nothing is a really big disappointment. I wouldn't have minded to have it on the techtree, but at least give it its vesitality and more loadout options. MGs, more FFAR, ATGMs and their combination. Please so it can be as competent as it should be.
Gaijin people, thank you for your work, we always enjoy at least some part of every update. But one problem that many of us still have is the shrinking of maps to almost pure urban ones, like you've done with Campania in this update, Sweden, etc. Please take into account that many players have an average ping above 200, what turns every close encounter into a guaranteed instant death, that's one of the main reasons we should have at least mixed maps to play reasonably fair battles. Thanks again.
Can we expect t-90 in next major patch?
tell me why the italian F104 that was supposed to have better engine with more than 8165kgf thrust has the same shitty engine than the german and the other f104g/j... why do you have to scam people every fucking time? don't say the "spade excuse" cause they are the same fucking airplane while the italian shoud have sparrows ASPIDE MISSILES aim9L better slats and aerodynamics better engine and BETTER RADAR/WEAPON SYSTEM.
Thank you so much for fixing ps4 controls in latest patch they are perfect better than ever
