S3ntry Posted September 25, 2024 Posted September 25, 2024 (edited) We have 45 naval assets in the game as of September 25, 2024. Most of the newer ones look very good (i.e. Chinese and South Atlantic assets, all carriers). Unfortunately, most of the civilian and Russian models look extremely outdated. Any chance of a model/texture update for the following ships? Battlecruiser 1144.2 Boat Zvedny Bulker Yakushev Cargo Ivanov Corvette 1124.4 Corvette 1241.1 Cruiser 1164 Frigate 1135M Frigate 11540 They do not have to be 8k and every bolt is modeled, just bring them into this decade. Also, is it possible to remove the old Kuznetsov? Finally, I would like to plead for a few more ships. For naval warfare, this area is extremely lacking. There have been some great additions in recent years, and I look forward to more. Maybe some more American ships from the Cold War era (battleships anyone???)?

S3ntry Posted September 25, 2024 Author Posted September 25, 2024 @draconus Ok, I wasn't aware the Kuznetsov (2017) was only for the SC owners. I thought that had changed already a while ago. Thanks for the info

That's way long before the SC release. 10 hours ago, draconus said: This is currently the only option for users without Supercarrier license, so no. I'm sure ED could do with the Kuznetsov what they did to the Stennis. I'm sure no SC owner would mind.

It was released with the SC.

S3ntry Posted September 26, 2024 Author Posted September 26, 2024 That's so weird that it got released in 2020 but ingame it says 2017. Maybe that is supposed to be the year it is depicting though? Either way, I agree with @MAXsenna to have that released to everybody. The "older" Kuznetsov looks like it is from 2005 (same as the other models mentioned at the top). 1

And the old model dates back to Flanker 2.0 as the other ships. Win10 i7-10700KF 32GB RTX4070S Quest 3 T16000M VPC CDT-VMAX TFRP FC3 F-14A/B F-15E CA SC NTTR PG Syria
Ramius007 Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 TBH, even "new" Kuzniecow doesnt look great, and keeping non SC model, IMO is bad for ED buisness, it's terribly outdated, it's a shadow on overall game quality, same can be said about some more old models, but Kuzniecow is actully a combat ship, used in missions , and definitely will see more action on new Kola map 1
