Sorry, I can't hear you over my quad bike horn 📣📣📣

[Hangry_Hungarian]

That's awesome they added a horn, but it's silly that its client side only. Just disable horns in staging, and allow others to hear it!

[timelymedal]

Map voting, sub factions, ATV’s, reduced weapon sway, increased turn radius for MG’s..

These all seem like wins to me?

Now I just want my CAS helos! 😂

[Chosinn]

Pretty cool that 1st Marine Regiment and 1BCT, 10MN DIV are in the game. Both units I've served lol.

[hitman_zulu]

the voting is a huge breath of life for the game. So you dont have to get the same layer or play fallujah 20 times in a row

[ivantheterrible]

Didnt even mention the mortar m1131 that snuck into the background of one of the screenshots from the devblog

[lostpeople]

I'm super excited to see what faction could possibly come this year e.g. JSDF (Japan), and maybe even the French mod could become a proper faction in game similar to how the Australians became a faction.

[Trve_Kvlt]

I feel like the combat units and map voting is going to cause a meta to develop, which I don't think will be healthy for the game. People are only gonna vote for whatever the best combat unit is, making it hard to experience the rest of them. Just by looking at what equipment is going to be available to each unit it's readily obvious that there are good choices and bad choices. Doesn't sound fun from a gameplay perspective, despite sounding like a good idea from a surface level.

[chaithethai]

Looks like I’m taking a break from hell divers this weekend! Excited to check this out, thanks for the update breakdown 🙏🏼

[shaggnar]

The asymmetry brought on by the unit system has the game feeling super fresh.
You have to actually be conscious of what your factions strengths and weaknesses are especially when combined with the map.
Last night we have the enemy team pick a light infantry unit on attack on Mutaha invasion and they got absolutely decimated by INS mechanized. If they'd picked something heavier it would have been a different story

[BirbarianHomeGuard]

It’s funny how the MGS gets added when it’s being retired IRL

[joeferris]

Noo!! I was a huge fan of the scope bob while feeling the sway could still come down a bit.
The way you could see the sides of the scope if not holding it perfectly straight was very real and immersive.

[LaikaTheG]

MANUAL BOLTING IS HUGE! I remember complaining about two things with ICO, ADS being unusable after ICO Play test 2 and snipers needing manual bolting to be effective. OWI, despite their lows with Epic Games Services, have come back in a huge way!

[mauticom]

For the voting I just hope recently used factions are blocked for at least the next round so you don't play the same units over and over. Also @MoiDawg does the last winner or loser pick first?

[KaiUndMoritz]

You know this update is crazy good when you only have 100 hrs from a year ago, played 10 hrs in the last few days, and complained about fixes that were introduced here. Like the swaying in binoculars or the overall sway of some of these scopes. or the atrocious looking sight innards. Looked cool but felt weird.

[StarGAMING-kjve]

I played squad yesterday and i hadent played in about 2 weeks and i did not notice the update while playing until the match ended and i got to experience the map voting. And i have to say it just blew me away and i love it. all in all great update.😀

[jpow]

Over 1100 hours and TIL that you could adjust ranging on the Leopard sight.... I always hated using that tank for having to guess range!

[kevingnomen]

The sub-factions look awesome! Looks like it’ll create a lot more interesting matches!

[jmm]

So excited to play vanilla again. Was stuck on mods due to a host of reasons and now I have a reason to go back 🤟

[W.o.lv.e.ri.n.e]

Maybe scopes should be affected by FOV changes should be implemented as well as more tweaks to the ICO would be great, maybe take a look at Project reality and how it works, it's mechanics are awesome
