Rifle seen inside the M117 is an AK with after market parts rather than a M4 style rifle. Can see it from the front iron sights and the gas tube as well as muzzlebreak location
it most likely wont get fixed significantly, cuz the games only uses one cpu core which is the main cause for the shit performance. And apparently its complicated af to program a single core game to run on multiple cores.You need a cpu that has good single core performance if you want to run squad more smoothly.
I'm all for CAS but we really need a much better flight model already, all factions to get some dedicated AA (MANPAD, emplacements, and/or vics), and get rid of bullet-proof pilots (but add functional co-pilots!). Essentially the skill floor for heli gameplay needs raised significantly.
It just does not fit squad to have weapons that lock on. If air to air combat is reduced to guy on ground just looking at the helicopter and pressing shoot and the pilot having to time countermeasures, that's going to be lame. I think the current IFVs and APCs that factions have can deal with choppers just fine.
@@McSniffle Squad is supposed to be set in 2010+ era of warfare. The fact that they've somehow made it play like early cold war so far isn't justification for keeping it as such. Countermeasures aren't fool proof, so pilots would have to use maneuvers for more than just getting from A-B. HAT role could be changed to have MANPADs as a loadout for factions that get them and only allow one per team and limited ammo. Helis that use the terrain and properly flare/evade could and would still be a major force to be reckoned with. But the flight model would need updated so those ridiculous maneuvers we see now aren't viable. If helis are going to start being equipped with A-G weapons they need to be more vulnerable and it's time for Squad to start feeling like an actual modern combined arms game.
If it's like real life, people will be able to ride on the step boards of the PMC'S SUV. Pretty standard way of getting guys around in film, spec ops, etc. when you only have 6 seats.
@@A_Honcho Ye it sounds cool on paper, I admit it's curious. But I can't imagine that not having armored vehicles would leave them any chance. What kind of anti tank launchers they are going to have? Would it make difference? I'm concerned that the faction will end up not looking authentic, unrealistic, just so it able to keep up with others.
@@blacklight4720 I’d say rifle men auto rifle men double as LATs in their squad. Rifle men also not losing the ability to carry their ammo bag. The HAT kits also has access to a NLAW with the 2 fire modes. Also their grenadier class could come with anti tank grenades like the ones insurgents get. With this much fire power (and a bit of preparation and planning of course 😅) I’d think a competent team might be able to pull it off. However the no Armour not even an IFV might be a deal breaker if enemy armour decides to harass your teams logistical lines. Also I’d suggest giving them ATVs to boost mobility and strike capabilities. People don’t know how easy it is to roll up behind a tank or an IFV when they’re idle engine on and turret or track them before hopping back on the ATV and repositioning. At speed it’s is extremely hard to be shot off one of these in my experience. Especially on a RWS gun. Perhaps playing the PMC like any other of the conventional fighting forces would be a mistake. Not strong enough to withstand head on encounters but able to employ hit and run tactics with great effectiveness.
I think that if there isn't something to balance the combat against vehicles, it will CERTAINLY be the least played, just like the FACs that have logistical doctrine, support, etc... People always choose the armored doctrine.
Honestly id hate to see a free weekend because most people with COD mindset just click and shoot, waste assets, and wont care to help downed friendlies or listen to the squad
@@FrankStallone42squad used to be good a year ago. In the last year the game has been filled with new players. It wouldn’t be so bad if they’d be willing to learn the game.
The M1117 is pretty cool to see. It was one of first US vehicles specifically designed for mine-resistance. And although you could call it an MRAP predecessor it is more accurate to call it the Cadillac-Gage V100/V150 Commando's cracked up younger brother.
Didn't they mention that anti air and countermeasures would be added in this too? I distinctly even remember them mentioning that the wire/laser guided missile and counter smoke system rework was also a necessary change to build the foundation, for a proper anti air system. I could be wrong about it being a 9.0 thing, but it's for sure coming, right?
Myb in 2-3 years if ever. Dont expect anything from devs... they are years behind schedule on promised stuff. Myb moders put some short range AA missile systems in game sooner or later. Also IMO maps need to be larger and more complex for stuff like SHORAD and attack helicopters to balance properly.
@@novinovic298 Well, I'm going based off of what they literally said 2 months ago, in their developer Q&A. They are "actively working on CAS helis, countermeasures, and Anti-Air," and apart of the 8.0 guided missile rework was to untangle/rebuild a lot of the old guided missile system, to allow them a better foundation for them to implement anti-air properly. But you got to understand there's a big difference between comments OWI has made in the past when they say "they plan to add X content," and when they say "actively working on X content." When they say they plan on doing something, then sure, I can agree with you that content just in the "planned" state can take anywhere between 2-5 years before we even see it. I mean, the direct use of words like "planned," "eventually," and "in the future," should obviously imply that. But the huge difference with the anti-air content is they made the distinct comment that it's being "ACTIVELY WORKED ON." To the point where they even already rebuilt and implemented the tech of the missile system in 8.0 to make it happen. I get that many Squad fans feel jaded and burned by OWI's previous promises, but it's a bit unfair to just toss EVERY single bit of content you hear mentioned from them, into the empty promises content pile.
@@novinovic298 You said, "Dont expect anything from devs... they are years behind schedule on promised stuff." This is what you base your entire argument on. Content that they promised from years ago, back when their approach to being transparent with the community only ended up shooting themselves in the foot, because their roadmap was not easy to deliver on. they admitted to that being an issue. Since then they have changed their stance. They have made a public statement about wanting to shift their transparency to making it more clear with the community about what they are currently working on. Sure, you can rant all you want about OWI's way of handling promised content from 5-7 years ago, but can you honestly say they have been handling Squad in the same way in the just the recent past 3 years? Just admit you are jaded and burned by indie devs for too long, and it has tainted your optimism on things. At some point you have to judge things individually, case by case, rather than using a broad brush approach of "every indie dev is a liar and won't deliver."
oooooooo I really love the new end of round screen, it's pretty simple to start but I can def see where it's going and I love it. But that little bird takes the cake for me, I have been waiting for years for a little bird since I began flying. I loved it in bf4, I loved it in arma 3, and I can't wait to fly it in squad. Here's hoping that the addition of the extra helo doesn't result in a return of the slideshow teleporters lolol
Seems like OWI wants to make small test before full CAS heli update. I'm worried, because even now it's effective to camp logis, but with rockets it should be very easy and there is no good counter for that.
Good Kornet operator and IFV/tank gunner can eliminate enemy CAS at beggining of the round and save entire team from trouble. That strategy works against CAS in Global Escalation mode.
Hoping I can hold my rifle a bit sturdier while shooting since we are PMC's considering how much work and effort IRL it takes to be one..... And I Hope they work on performance. Threw a ton of testing the blur around your scope while ADS hinders frames massively compared to when you aim in modded and dont have that blur you get no frame drops. I hope they look into it.
Ooo that's a good shout, Insurgents already get worse handling due to a "lack of training" Would be cool if PMCs get better handling due to being higher Skilled
Thanks for the update, I like that Squad is supported for so long and there's already so much content. Curious to see how attack helis will chang up the meta!
People who call this small additions to game "big update" or "major update" are part of the reason Squad gets very little content updates.If this is big then i don't know what to say.... Community and especially Squad youtubers should demand more from devs.
IMO that looked like a an AK varient with an aftermarket muzzlebreak on it. Reason being the front ironsight looks very AK varient adjacent and the muzzle device looks like a Zenit brand DTK that is in tarkov and the only reason I recognize it so perfectly. So i can only assume its an AK varient over a short barrel M4
would be sick if they would upgrade the VDV to make them be using the 6sh122 ratnik suits and also you can choose between ak-74m and ak-12 and add the BMD-2 / BMD-2M into the game for the VDV. for americans bring the Boxer and more airborne type stuff and bring in the m320 for the US army.
I would like them to work on vehicle combat in the same way they reworked infantry combat! The ideal in MY opinion is to leave the vehicle combat like that of Squad 44 where the positions on the vehicle, vision, armor, ammunition EVERYTHING is more realistic.
I d love to see shared voice chat someday in vanilla. Short range combats are frightening when they can hear u. And sadly mods are not better than vanilla cause they removed the stamina factor
The gun seen in the hands of the guy manning the m117 turret looks to be a modified ak not an m4, looking at the placement of the front sight and gas tube.
Sad to say that was not an m4. It's an ak based on the barrel, iron sight and the front zenitco muzzle brake. Though I am not sure what caliber I did not see the mag. The gas block is covered by the handguard as well so I cannot tell wether if it's an ak100 series or an old ak with mods. I believe that's a magpul zhukov handguard though.
squad devs need to implement flairs on all helicopters, to create a new squad member: the anti-air with a stinger for the US and 9K333 Verba for the Russians. I don't even understand why it's still not in the game.
I would like them to present the PMC's with the Wagner Group plus Ukraine together. It would still be possible to add several maps from recent combats, Bakhmut, Mauripol, Hostomel airport, etc.
yea and ignore optimizing it.....Idk man, Every time They come Out with big updates the Performance Gets worse, I have a Very beefy system, squad for some reason Performs worse out of all my games i play.... a smooth experience is best, its a shame really, also the map Upgrade looks nice but how bad will that change the Performance? the community wants it so bad, thats the number 1 complaint i see about squad, they need to fix this. sorry for the rant, just the performance has been getting worse, it should be getting better after all these years, maybe sell me some more emotes so they can hire a specialist to Optimize there game , lmao
They need to get rid of the horrible scope shadow and recoil. Cant even double tap without the guns going crazy and scope picture jumping all over the place.
You posted a section from a clip titled "SQUAD 8.1 PREVIEW: After Action Report" and the completely ignored that and instead decided to go with "9.0 LEAKS" clickbait thumbnail.
Oh god, PLEASE give us MANPADs if they give us attack helicopters.. If you think about how annoying a decent pilot with a ok gunner is when circling and suppressing I don't want to know what a free roaming Littlebird will do
Have any of you seen the SDK? I don't see how any dev can sniff through the jumbled up mess they have going on. Yet, adding more content before optimizing is their goal. Straight whacker.
This update looks good on paper but feel it will flop hard. 1. Helo Gameplay needs to be overhauled, the flight model sucks and choppers are way too tanky, especially in ICO with Mg's being inaccurate. Rockets are inconsistent on choppers as the hitboxes for weak spots are so small. Fixes? Flight model to be updated, have 7.62 or .338/.50 pen the cockpit. The argument of "heli's wont be able to rush points" its bloody stupid, helis should be risk reward, fast movement with little armour. If you want keep the ability to rush add in paradropping like we see in GE mod. 2. Another Blufor faction to fight the Russians. They need to add in more Redfor factions that don't suck. Russians are getting stale as hell, update them to the modern standard or even glorify them a little. The Fact the brits get a not even in service vic and the most modern tank the Ruskis have is a T90A, not even the M. They redesigned ATGMs with counter measures in vics but didn't even let us use the Shtora. 3. Armoured vics are in a weird spot where they can be dominating or just outright useless. The AT having a 10m arming distance constantly is an odd choice and makes close range play with inf very unrewarding, but vics at range dominate, so ifv's role aren't IFV's but as big armoured snipers. Adding in CAS makes the inf life even more annoying in those matchups. I agree with the sentiment of adding an AA class that is an addition to HAT, so you can have 2 HATS or 2 AAs or 1 of each on a team. Trade off being reducing Firepower on vics or on helis. The freedom vics at range have and now CAS will have if nothing is changed is going to make the ICO feel even worse, there are no proper counters.
What are you the most excited for?

Cannons?! On a Little Bird? What is this, Ace Combat?
It’s a joke
That hydra pod better took 10mins to load otherwise I'm calling OP.🧐
3:05 "goat dweller"?
Does Squad have track IR and hotas support yet?
dammit, GC only just came back online
The cycle continues
3:18 ITS AK
Enjoy your break.
Thank you
Thanks Honcho
6:48 dont we need atleast one or two maps which are armor fight intended? It would be good if we get atleast an only armor mod
When are we gonna get Stingers?
OWI need to add in Enemy voip it's just too much fun not to considering the popularity of it now with GE
Really curious how they will do AT
Man they just need to add multi input support. I want to be able to use my flight sim for this game without using third party software.
This is my swamp.
little bird with miniguns? Well i know hat a buddy of mine is playing once the patch hits.
They need to get rid of the horrible scope shadow and recoil. Cant even double tap without the guns going crazy and scope picture jumping all over the place.
Squad hasn't even peaked
Briefly:
- We added unnecessary crap
- There will be no optimization
Its 8.1 FYI, they said it in all their posts, 9.0 holds other stuff
You posted a section from a clip titled "SQUAD 8.1 PREVIEW: After Action Report" and the completely ignored that and instead decided to go with "9.0 LEAKS" clickbait thumbnail.
5:00 damnit, now I can’t learn how to do a barrel roll in a live lobby anymore.
I just want basic melee for every weapon and tool in game.
Oh god, PLEASE give us MANPADs if they give us attack helicopters..
If you think about how annoying a decent pilot with a ok gunner is when circling and suppressing I don't want to know what a free roaming Littlebird will do
WE NEED FRENCH ARMY WITH HK416, GLOCK 17 FOR EVERY SOLDIER QND MARKSMAN WITH SCAR H AND SCOPE
The Heroes of Wagner Group should get their own faction for the liberation of Bahkmut
i was waiting
🙌
Have any of you seen the SDK? I don't see how any dev can sniff through the jumbled up mess they have going on. Yet, adding more content before optimizing is their goal. Straight whacker.
Yeah.. I wouldnt like little bird to be so op like that murican mortar vic shooting across whole maps.. no more I yield
I hope they are gonna fix SMG recoil
They need to make them all like the Turkish SMG, that things nasty in CQB now
new faction better have some neat AT tech, or they will become a laughing stock
This update looks good on paper but feel it will flop hard.
1. Helo Gameplay needs to be overhauled, the flight model sucks and choppers are way too tanky, especially in ICO with Mg's being inaccurate. Rockets are inconsistent on choppers as the hitboxes for weak spots are so small. Fixes? Flight model to be updated, have 7.62 or .338/.50 pen the cockpit. The argument of "heli's wont be able to rush points" its bloody stupid, helis should be risk reward, fast movement with little armour. If you want keep the ability to rush add in paradropping like we see in GE mod.
2. Another Blufor faction to fight the Russians. They need to add in more Redfor factions that don't suck. Russians are getting stale as hell, update them to the modern standard or even glorify them a little. The Fact the brits get a not even in service vic and the most modern tank the Ruskis have is a T90A, not even the M. They redesigned ATGMs with counter measures in vics but didn't even let us use the Shtora.
3. Armoured vics are in a weird spot where they can be dominating or just outright useless. The AT having a 10m arming distance constantly is an odd choice and makes close range play with inf very unrewarding, but vics at range dominate, so ifv's role aren't IFV's but as big armoured snipers. Adding in CAS makes the inf life even more annoying in those matchups. I agree with the sentiment of adding an AA class that is an addition to HAT, so you can have 2 HATS or 2 AAs or 1 of each on a team. Trade off being reducing Firepower on vics or on helis. The freedom vics at range have and now CAS will have if nothing is changed is going to make the ICO feel even worse, there are no proper counters.
THEY ARE ADDING 2005 BLACKWOTER PMC
I wish they would bring back the attack Huey 😢
Some cool stuff is coming but I want the game to run better and maybe get ported to unreal 5
Finally a decent looking multicam
I'm looking forward to seeing more of it!
