Thank guys for listening. Welcome to episode 14 00:00:49.600 --> 00:00:51.719 eight of the thunder Buddies. Thank you guys for being 15 00:00:51.759 --> 00:00:53.840 here once again for another week. Thank you guys for 16 00:00:53.880 --> 00:00:56.399 hanging out. I think we're starting to get excited. There's 17 00:00:56.399 --> 00:00:58.000 a lot of dev blogs coming out and a lot 18 00:00:58.039 --> 00:01:00.320 of cool things that we're gonna talk about today. We 19 00:01:00.359 --> 00:01:03.240 have a big update coming out in the next potentially 20 00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:05.640 three weeks, so we'll start seeing a lot of cool 21 00:01:05.640 --> 00:01:06.599 stuff and stuff like that. 22 00:01:06.680 --> 00:01:08.879 So this will also be like the first episode and 23 00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:11.280 I think like a month where we won't even mention Nabel. 24 00:01:11.319 --> 00:01:13.280 Besides the fact that I just said the word neighbors 25 00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:16.040 content in this episode. 26 00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:18.920 Either nobody said about that riff just saying no one, 27 00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:24.920 no one's upset it is, you know, trouble. Is that 28 00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:28.920 what you're talking about? What's that from the Holy Boomer reference? 29 00:01:28.959 --> 00:01:30.640 Okay, something from a long time. 30 00:01:31.159 --> 00:01:33.680 I don't even known. 31 00:01:35.079 --> 00:01:36.959 I think it was one of those old you remember, 32 00:01:36.959 --> 00:01:39.079 the old like Disney movies of like Robin. 33 00:01:38.760 --> 00:01:39.480 Hood and stuff. 34 00:01:39.599 --> 00:01:39.799 Yeah. 35 00:01:39.920 --> 00:01:42.480 Man, they were like they were like animated foxes. It 36 00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:44.040 wasn't Robin Hood. It was like a fox. 37 00:01:44.120 --> 00:01:46.799 Yeah, it's something like that. But I feel like I 38 00:01:46.840 --> 00:01:47.959 remember from my childhood. 39 00:01:47.959 --> 00:01:49.480 Okay, as long as it's not like the Song of 40 00:01:49.519 --> 00:01:51.640 the South or something, we'll be okay. I don't know 41 00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:55.319 where we were going with that. That's an animated Disney movie. 42 00:01:55.319 --> 00:01:58.359 The fact that you jumped straight to that comment section, 43 00:01:58.480 --> 00:02:02.159 let me know if it's not about Gail Well the 44 00:02:02.280 --> 00:02:03.760 new vehicle comeing in. 45 00:02:04.519 --> 00:02:06.120 It's an air vehicle. This one. 46 00:02:06.280 --> 00:02:09.120 Actually, you were talking about it before we started the 47 00:02:09.199 --> 00:02:12.840 recording of how originally it was planned for the Welcome 48 00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:16.080 to have a premium variant, but one that is coming 49 00:02:16.120 --> 00:02:21.240 in a new twin engine high altitude fighter with a 50 00:02:21.240 --> 00:02:23.199 lot of cannons to be honest for the br that 51 00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:27.560 it's going to be a but a high altitude British fighter. 52 00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:30.840 This is gonna be the Westland Welkin and did have 53 00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:33.159 premium version. This is gonna be a tech Tree version, 54 00:02:33.240 --> 00:02:36.639 and apparently they pulled the premium version and didn't say why. 55 00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:39.719 Yeah, but yep, I saw I saw one of my 56 00:02:39.800 --> 00:02:43.400 news guys talking about it and they posted on the 57 00:02:43.439 --> 00:02:47.000 forms that it was gonna have the Welkin f Mark 58 00:02:47.080 --> 00:02:50.639 one and the late version. Which it's interesting because the 59 00:02:50.639 --> 00:02:57.319 devlogs title still says it still says the Late in 60 00:02:57.360 --> 00:02:59.719 the title, but it's not in the dev blog anymore 61 00:02:59.759 --> 00:03:04.360 because I guess they pulled the premium version for unforeseen circumstances. 62 00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:06.199 They said it might come back at a future time. 63 00:03:06.319 --> 00:03:09.360 So interesting. But yeah, there is a new tech Tree 64 00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:11.360 plane coming out and it's a unique one for the 65 00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:13.039 British and I think a lot of British people feel 66 00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:15.319 a little bit left out sometimes, so I think Rev 67 00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:17.439 is more excited about this plane than I am, so 68 00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:20.000 I'll let him run about. Well, it's about but it 69 00:03:20.639 --> 00:03:21.479 looks all right to me. 70 00:03:21.879 --> 00:03:25.240 I will say Number one, it's coming to the era 71 00:03:25.400 --> 00:03:28.120 of the game that I'm always the most passionate about props. 72 00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:30.680 Right if you're a jet guy, does nothing wrong with that. 73 00:03:31.159 --> 00:03:32.879 There's a lot of people who enjoy jets. I just 74 00:03:33.080 --> 00:03:36.039 I've always enjoyed the prop era of war Thunder, and 75 00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:38.879 that's where it's getting thrown in. It has the same 76 00:03:39.159 --> 00:03:42.759 four to twenty milimeter cannons as the Whirlwind does. For 77 00:03:43.000 --> 00:03:46.280 twenty millimeters cannons that anything at this br range is 78 00:03:46.639 --> 00:03:50.280 very good firepower, so it's got great firepower. The drawback 79 00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:53.039 to this is that it's got a seventy foot wingspan. 80 00:03:53.560 --> 00:03:57.080 This thing is made for high altitude flying. If you're 81 00:03:57.120 --> 00:03:59.919 down at two hundred feet you're trying to make some 82 00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:02.840 dogfight turns, good luck, you're either ripping the wings off 83 00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:06.280 or you're getting shot down. Yeah, there is a play 84 00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:08.560 style that I think this really fits in. 85 00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:11.080 I would argue it's a very niche play style, but 86 00:04:11.120 --> 00:04:12.000 it's still exciting. 87 00:04:12.039 --> 00:04:15.360 And the reason I'm into this a lot is Number one, 88 00:04:15.960 --> 00:04:16.800 for the size of the plane. 89 00:04:16.839 --> 00:04:17.560 You got a lot of rounds. 90 00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:20.240 It's almost six hundred and twenty milimeters rounds, which for 91 00:04:20.360 --> 00:04:21.000 you air. 92 00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:23.279 RB guys can be big because that's not a lot 93 00:04:23.319 --> 00:04:25.120 of having to reload and reland. 94 00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:29.079 And also just the fact that it's different stylistically to 95 00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:32.279 what you're used to. Again, this is a high altitude 96 00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:35.040 style bomber made to go thirty five forty up to 97 00:04:35.079 --> 00:04:36.240 forty four thousand feet. 98 00:04:36.480 --> 00:04:37.480 How often do those. 99 00:04:37.319 --> 00:04:39.879 Scenarios come up in war Thunder really depends on what 100 00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:40.639 you're playing. 101 00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:42.879 But I think the main key that I get excited 102 00:04:42.879 --> 00:04:44.480 about is this isn't a copy and paste. 103 00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:47.240 People said, hey, we don't like the battle Pass Spitfire 104 00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:48.279 because it's a copy paste. 105 00:04:48.279 --> 00:04:49.959 Well, you have a unique. 106 00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:52.199 Style plane for the British Tree now that you can 107 00:04:52.279 --> 00:04:54.560 chase after and play and explore. That will be a 108 00:04:54.560 --> 00:04:57.120 different experience from other things in the British Tree. 109 00:04:57.240 --> 00:05:00.680 Mm hmm, yeah, I agree. I think it's unique. I 110 00:05:00.680 --> 00:05:02.879 think the best way to compare it if you've played 111 00:05:02.879 --> 00:05:04.639 the British Tree before is it's gonna be kind of 112 00:05:04.639 --> 00:05:09.040 like the Hornet, but even more a tune for higher altitude. 113 00:05:09.079 --> 00:05:11.879 So what I what I'm imagining is kind of like 114 00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:15.279 those later fock wolves. The dog knows fock wolves, but 115 00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:18.480 the but the ta, it'd be like moving the fock 116 00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:20.160 wolf to the TA would be kind of be like 117 00:05:20.199 --> 00:05:23.199 moving the hornet to the welkin. So yeah, it's a 118 00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:27.319 high altitude good for intercepting. Not great for maneuvering, especially 119 00:05:27.319 --> 00:05:30.560 low outtude, but high altitude if you like intercepting bombers, 120 00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:32.639 if you like being that play style where you're high 121 00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:35.639 in the out, you're high and like high altitude, and 122 00:05:35.800 --> 00:05:38.040 you want to use those frontal twenty mills that really 123 00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:41.240 bring people pressure. And I think it'll be good. I 124 00:05:41.319 --> 00:05:43.759 don't know. I'm interested to try it. I like props 125 00:05:43.800 --> 00:05:48.319 a lot, the British props I've always slightly enjoyed, but 126 00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:51.439 I don't never love the spitfires. So I like the 127 00:05:51.480 --> 00:05:54.879 hornet a lot. So I'm more excited than I think you. 128 00:05:54.879 --> 00:05:57.319 You think I'm putting off, But it's all right, I'm 129 00:05:58.120 --> 00:05:58.399 why are. 130 00:05:58.360 --> 00:05:59.160 You projected on me? 131 00:06:00.040 --> 00:06:00.160 Oh? 132 00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:02.959 Rams more excited and then like, oh now it's my fault. 133 00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:05.959 You're not excited. What the hell, man, do you like 134 00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:06.720 the welkin or not? 135 00:06:07.279 --> 00:06:08.600 It's alright, it's all right. 136 00:06:09.000 --> 00:06:09.639 It's the reason. 137 00:06:09.680 --> 00:06:11.639 It's one of the first week of dead blogs. Okay, 138 00:06:11.680 --> 00:06:14.279 because they know it's not the most exciting aircraft, you know, 139 00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:15.560 like it is what it is. 140 00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:19.439 This is the type of meat and potatoes vehicle that 141 00:06:19.480 --> 00:06:22.279 I think makes warth under fund though, right. This is 142 00:06:22.319 --> 00:06:23.920 the type of vehicle that if you have enough of 143 00:06:23.959 --> 00:06:27.000 these Joe Bob over there and Billy Sue over. 144 00:06:26.920 --> 00:06:30.199 There, they love this. Right, And this does have to 145 00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:30.600 be clear. 146 00:06:30.680 --> 00:06:33.040 This isn't just like if your dogfighter has no purpose 147 00:06:33.519 --> 00:06:36.360 with almost any twin engine aircraft, which the Welkin is, 148 00:06:36.839 --> 00:06:38.920 but this one in particular have an advantage, is going 149 00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:42.319 to have much better early battle climb rate. Right, So 150 00:06:42.399 --> 00:06:44.560 you get up top, so you talk about can it 151 00:06:44.639 --> 00:06:48.279 fight the fighters? Yes, in that early portion of the 152 00:06:48.279 --> 00:06:50.879 game where you can get to fifteen twenty thousand feet 153 00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:54.480 way before they can. Yeah, you don't have massive, massive 154 00:06:54.519 --> 00:06:58.600 frontal armament in combination with way more potential energy stored 155 00:06:58.639 --> 00:07:00.959 up because you've got way more out through them, you 156 00:07:00.959 --> 00:07:02.160 can do a lot with this. 157 00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:04.319 It's is gonna come down to playing that type of 158 00:07:04.319 --> 00:07:04.879 play style. 159 00:07:05.079 --> 00:07:07.600 If you are someone who is just really used to 160 00:07:07.639 --> 00:07:10.519 a six you know, zeros and spit fires, you're doing 161 00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:14.040 low turn rate dog fights. I guess my rate dog 162 00:07:14.079 --> 00:07:16.240 fights at low altitudes. Yeah, this could be a very 163 00:07:16.240 --> 00:07:19.040 different experience to you. But that doesn't mean it's useless either. 164 00:07:19.079 --> 00:07:21.079 There are ways that this could be a very fun, 165 00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:24.160 very effective plane. And I expect to do this when 166 00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:26.560 I'm deciding to go chase those B twenty six's and 167 00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:29.480 AM two six four's and I want to go bomber hunting. 168 00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:32.199 This could be a really nice addition to that. And again, 169 00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:34.439 like you said to the British. 170 00:07:34.000 --> 00:07:38.040 Tree, yeah, yeah, I we'll see how it is. I 171 00:07:38.040 --> 00:07:42.680 we'll see when the stats actually come out, how it'll 172 00:07:42.680 --> 00:07:45.519 be climb rate wise. If if it has some of 173 00:07:45.560 --> 00:07:47.399 the best climb rate at this br I think it'll 174 00:07:47.439 --> 00:07:48.639 be it'll be a lot of fun to use. So 175 00:07:49.120 --> 00:07:51.279 we'll see. We don't know enough about it yet. Just 176 00:07:51.319 --> 00:07:54.519 a simple dev blog from guidgen this week, just in 177 00:07:54.560 --> 00:07:57.399 their in their schedule of deav blogs talking about what's coming. 178 00:07:57.519 --> 00:07:59.639 You know, it's it's just it is. 179 00:07:59.639 --> 00:08:02.519 Worth noting that they said that the speed and things 180 00:08:02.600 --> 00:08:04.720 like that and the turn rate are not good, but. 181 00:08:04.639 --> 00:08:06.879 They they did take the note. 182 00:08:06.600 --> 00:08:10.839 That it has their quote impressive climb rate, which historically 183 00:08:10.879 --> 00:08:13.160 translates in war thunder to it being in. 184 00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:15.759 The upper echelog of that category. 185 00:08:15.279 --> 00:08:15.720 But maybe not. 186 00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:18.639 So Yeah, it's I don't think it's going to be 187 00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:19.759 the best, Like. 188 00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:21.879 Well number one, Why don't think it's gonna be the 189 00:08:21.879 --> 00:08:23.519 best because they took the premium out, because if we're 190 00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:24.879 gonna put the best anything, they're going to try to 191 00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:26.519 sell it right, So I still think. 192 00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:30.399 It's weird. I don't know what the difference was because 193 00:08:30.480 --> 00:08:33.200 I I quickly skimmed the dev blog when it first 194 00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:36.000 came out, so I don't actually know what the premium 195 00:08:36.120 --> 00:08:38.720 was different than the tech Tree one. But it's interesting 196 00:08:38.759 --> 00:08:40.440 that they're adding the tech Tree but they pulled the 197 00:08:40.480 --> 00:08:43.399 premium for the updates, so who knows what the premium 198 00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:45.240 was different and why they pulled it. 199 00:08:45.440 --> 00:08:46.399 Yeah, it could just be. 200 00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:50.320 Economics with Guigen. They might just have decided that the 201 00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:52.960 British didn't need another premium right now and they wanted 202 00:08:52.960 --> 00:08:55.240 to save it for a later date or something. I 203 00:08:55.240 --> 00:08:58.120 don't know, but there you go. There's there's your another 204 00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:00.320 new vehicle coming in the major update and it's not 205 00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:03.399 a boat. Thank god. We actually got some insight into 206 00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:06.080 something else that was coming out, so it'll be interesting. 207 00:09:06.200 --> 00:09:07.080 I will see how it goes. 208 00:09:07.240 --> 00:09:10.399 I told everybody, like, get through and the boats will 209 00:09:10.440 --> 00:09:13.519 start to dry up? Am I so impatient? In twenty 210 00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:16.480 twenty six, can you people calm down? Like, give us 211 00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:18.919 few boat people thirty days to have a freaking boat. 212 00:09:19.120 --> 00:09:21.159 Yeah, my Atlanta. Good news. 213 00:09:21.200 --> 00:09:22.840 By the way, if y'all are here, if you do 214 00:09:22.919 --> 00:09:24.480 want to spend money, you're just in here, like well, 215 00:09:24.559 --> 00:09:24.879 damn it. 216 00:09:24.919 --> 00:09:25.519 I wanted a. 217 00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:28.080 Premium welcome stay towards the end of this show. We 218 00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:29.919 got a premium for you to buy don't worry, just 219 00:09:29.960 --> 00:09:30.679 coming out soon. 220 00:09:30.879 --> 00:09:34.000 And and one quick, very small thing for all my 221 00:09:34.039 --> 00:09:36.440 top tier airb players if you didn't catch it this week. 222 00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:39.399 They also made it so there was a there's a 223 00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:42.559 meadow right now and top tier where no one really 224 00:09:42.600 --> 00:09:46.080 knows how to notch or BVR, so that the there 225 00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:48.720 was all these tiktoks going around about just shoot down 226 00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:52.320 the enemy missiles. We were hoping they would fix that. 227 00:09:52.360 --> 00:09:54.720 They didn't necessarily fix it, but they did make it 228 00:09:54.799 --> 00:09:58.919 so if you fired your Fox ones or Fox threes 229 00:09:59.080 --> 00:10:02.480 on an enemy air it will not proxy on a 230 00:10:02.559 --> 00:10:07.000 target smart smaller than an aircraft, so it doesn't really 231 00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:10.279 change anything. All that someone can still fire their missile 232 00:10:10.399 --> 00:10:13.320 at your missile because if you fire a missile on 233 00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:16.360 a missile, then the filter is looking for a small target. 234 00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:19.480 So it didn't really fix anything, but it does seem 235 00:10:19.559 --> 00:10:23.120 like there's a trend to guideen. They've been actively shooting 236 00:10:23.159 --> 00:10:27.759 down these like unplanned metas that have been coming out recently, 237 00:10:27.840 --> 00:10:30.480 so it seems like they might be pushing towards that 238 00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:33.720 meta to be removed. But it's a first step. You 239 00:10:33.840 --> 00:10:36.480 might notice that your missile doesn't get hit by as 240 00:10:36.519 --> 00:10:39.320 many missiles now, so it is what it is, you know. 241 00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:44.080 On that topic, I'm particularly curious of how these type 242 00:10:44.120 --> 00:10:47.559 of changes will affect and this is just pure conjectured 243 00:10:47.559 --> 00:10:50.039 time lazy and gentlemen, welcome to to the conjecture segment, 244 00:10:50.679 --> 00:10:53.879 but we know that they're working on it won't do eventually, 245 00:10:53.919 --> 00:10:54.919 get too stealth. 246 00:10:54.639 --> 00:10:56.000 Aircraft with JIM fighters. 247 00:10:56.120 --> 00:10:59.279 Yeah, out of updates like this end up affecting things 248 00:10:59.320 --> 00:11:03.039 like that, talking about those having extremely small signatures for 249 00:11:03.159 --> 00:11:05.840 radar and everything. And will these be the type of 250 00:11:05.840 --> 00:11:08.240 decisions they have to reverse or change again or are 251 00:11:08.240 --> 00:11:10.600 they purposely planning long term for these type of things. 252 00:11:10.840 --> 00:11:14.159 I'm very curious because to my knowledge they're still going. Obviously, 253 00:11:14.240 --> 00:11:17.519 infantry being the focus that is absolutely still right there 254 00:11:17.639 --> 00:11:20.000 being worked on on the table, is working towards fifth 255 00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:20.720 gen fighters. 256 00:11:20.960 --> 00:11:23.039 So I actually didn't even think of it like that, 257 00:11:23.120 --> 00:11:26.320 But yeah, you're right, that's a really good point. That's 258 00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:30.799 why I keep you around. RIV. Everyone thinks of this, like, yeah, 259 00:11:30.840 --> 00:11:33.720 you're firing on a plane size signature. It won't detonate 260 00:11:33.759 --> 00:11:36.879 on anything smaller than that now, But yeah, you're right, 261 00:11:36.919 --> 00:11:40.080 if they add fifth gen or they add stealth fighters 262 00:11:40.120 --> 00:11:43.600 like they plan to. Sealth fighters have a smaller radar 263 00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:47.159 signature than like an AIM one twenty does, so will 264 00:11:47.159 --> 00:11:49.919 it detonate on us? Will always just sail right past 265 00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:53.039 a stell? And well, I don't know. I mean, I 266 00:11:53.039 --> 00:11:55.399 don't know a lot about this is what stealthy. 267 00:11:55.159 --> 00:11:57.080 Questions, Like, how are they going to get the math. 268 00:11:56.919 --> 00:11:58.519 Right exactly exactly? 269 00:11:58.679 --> 00:12:02.000 You jump going from worth gen to fifth gen on exactly. 270 00:12:02.720 --> 00:12:04.360 Yeah, So like if you fire on a fifth gen 271 00:12:04.360 --> 00:12:06.840 that has its bomb base open and the signature is huge, 272 00:12:06.879 --> 00:12:09.879 but then they close their bombbays, it's still tracking a 273 00:12:09.960 --> 00:12:12.399 tiny ass like signature. Is it gonna go off? I 274 00:12:12.440 --> 00:12:15.960 have no idea, And that's you know, I stand by 275 00:12:16.000 --> 00:12:17.759 my point. I've been saying this for two years. If 276 00:12:17.759 --> 00:12:20.120 they add self fighters, I think it's gonna be hardly broken. 277 00:12:20.399 --> 00:12:23.960 That's my opinion about that. But interesting, it's an interesting thought. 278 00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:25.879 They might have to reverse this change eventually. 279 00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:29.559 I always definitely prefer to err on the side of positivity, 280 00:12:29.559 --> 00:12:32.720 but I will agree with you that the scale of 281 00:12:32.799 --> 00:12:35.759 going to Gen five when it comes to aircraft is 282 00:12:35.799 --> 00:12:38.679 not like going from Gen three to Gen four for aircraft. 283 00:12:38.720 --> 00:12:41.360 I mean, it's a totally different way of how they're approaching. 284 00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:43.639 You know, when you went to the early gens, you 285 00:12:43.679 --> 00:12:45.799 can look, you can tell what they were focused on, 286 00:12:45.840 --> 00:12:47.519 and for the most part, they were focused on all right, 287 00:12:47.519 --> 00:12:49.120 well we want to go first one to mock too, 288 00:12:49.120 --> 00:12:50.679 who could have the fastest jet out there? 289 00:12:50.720 --> 00:12:54.559 And things like that, and that structure has changed a lot. 290 00:12:54.759 --> 00:12:58.080 And could argue that, you know, Gen four and Gen 291 00:12:58.120 --> 00:13:00.399 four point five, and people have had this argument the 292 00:13:00.399 --> 00:13:03.120 war under community. Should they stick to just that because 293 00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:06.679 going to that fifth gen adds so much complexity. At 294 00:13:06.679 --> 00:13:09.679 the same time, as somebody who likes exploring things, I 295 00:13:09.720 --> 00:13:12.639 wouldn't mind giving it a try, but it's it's absolutely 296 00:13:12.679 --> 00:13:16.000 something I understand. Everybody out there being worried they're going 297 00:13:16.080 --> 00:13:17.600 to screw it up because. 298 00:13:17.360 --> 00:13:18.240 It is complex. 299 00:13:18.799 --> 00:13:22.039 Yeah, I understand that. I agree with that. It's we'll see. 300 00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:24.039 Only time will tell. I guess when it comes. 301 00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:25.960 I'm waiting for them to say that the Felon and 302 00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:29.039 the Raptor have the same you know, radio center and stuff, 303 00:13:29.080 --> 00:13:32.080 and they performed the same go ahead guide and make 304 00:13:32.200 --> 00:13:35.840 my days. See how much anti communists propaganda and do. 305 00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:41.159 That we're too close to the Fourth of July. You're said 306 00:13:41.159 --> 00:13:43.440 communists people might actually believe you. It's nuts. 307 00:13:44.559 --> 00:13:45.919 Hey, I'm ready for the Fourth of July. 308 00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:52.720 In the years of being the best, I'm ready for 309 00:13:52.759 --> 00:13:54.120 all of our non American fans. 310 00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:56.320 And well we've made it to the eye Roll Ports 311 00:13:56.320 --> 00:13:56.879 another show. 312 00:13:57.080 --> 00:13:59.759 Yeah, well, Reff, we know what your favorite thing is 313 00:13:59.759 --> 00:14:02.240 about America. Now tell me what your favorite thing has 314 00:14:02.320 --> 00:14:06.320 been recently on your stream. What have you done recently? 315 00:14:06.360 --> 00:14:09.799 Rev that that that really wets your whistle? And tell 316 00:14:09.840 --> 00:14:13.639 me something to talk. Let's just break from the news something. 317 00:14:13.720 --> 00:14:15.879 Just give me something to give me something other than 318 00:14:15.919 --> 00:14:18.360 talking about the fourth of July right now, please. 319 00:14:18.120 --> 00:14:20.679 But besides the fourth of July, Well, we wanted to 320 00:14:20.679 --> 00:14:23.919 do this segment because I think it's important for everybody 321 00:14:23.960 --> 00:14:24.759 to remember that. 322 00:14:25.039 --> 00:14:25.519 At the key. 323 00:14:25.600 --> 00:14:27.799 And this might sound simplicitic, but this is a game 324 00:14:27.840 --> 00:14:30.399 and it's supposed to be fun and one thing that 325 00:14:30.559 --> 00:14:32.840 you know, not just to self promote, but partially to 326 00:14:32.879 --> 00:14:35.919 self promote. I hope other creators like this. We genuinely 327 00:14:36.080 --> 00:14:39.639 enjoy the game. We have some really fun moments, you know. 328 00:14:40.559 --> 00:14:42.600 For me, it's not even the games where like I 329 00:14:42.679 --> 00:14:46.960 perform necessarily very well. Right, you know, the best match 330 00:14:47.000 --> 00:14:49.000 I've had in the past month, I did a match 331 00:14:49.279 --> 00:14:52.120 and again very rare for this to happen, but had 332 00:14:52.159 --> 00:14:54.720 a match where I got over twenty kills, no deaths. 333 00:14:54.720 --> 00:14:56.840 I'm sitting here on my high horse. That did great. 334 00:14:57.080 --> 00:14:59.480 Of course, the next match I go like three kills, 335 00:14:59.519 --> 00:15:01.279 six death type deal. 336 00:15:01.519 --> 00:15:03.919 But those aren't the ones that are the most fun 337 00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:04.120 to me. 338 00:15:04.200 --> 00:15:08.960 For me, we recently had a streak of best squad wins. 339 00:15:09.000 --> 00:15:12.320 My favorite wager in the game is the best squad. 340 00:15:12.960 --> 00:15:15.080 Now keep in mind that if you're listening, one of 341 00:15:15.120 --> 00:15:16.799 the reasons to hang out with people like me and 342 00:15:16.840 --> 00:15:18.759 Gail and anybody else in a squadron is because I 343 00:15:18.799 --> 00:15:22.200 do believe for Silver Lion purposes, the best Squad wager 344 00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:24.159 is the best wager in the game and the easiest 345 00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:26.919 one to complete. Just get three of your buddies, and 346 00:15:26.960 --> 00:15:29.919 if y'all are even halfway decent at the game, y'all 347 00:15:29.919 --> 00:15:32.360 are gonna get best squad every time. Because almost nobody 348 00:15:32.440 --> 00:15:35.600 runs four players deep, it's very rare, so your ability 349 00:15:35.639 --> 00:15:39.240 to get that high score is simply quite easy in 350 00:15:39.279 --> 00:15:42.240 almost any game mode, whether it be air ground.
