WHAT'S NEW IN Squad Version 8: Gameplay Updates & Vehicles!

So many new toys! I'm glad they are further diversifying the load outs of the individual Units/Battalions

mk19 fires 40mm grenades, they have an arming distance similar to rpg launchers, you can see some of the shots not exploding because they are being fired so close because of the muzzle velocity being faster than the regular 40mm grenade launchers they also tend to have a larger area of effect

Great video! Did you play against the RGF Mechanized last night on Kohat Toi? I got the opportunity to use the BMP-2M that match and it was an interesting experience to say the least

If you are in the gunner seat of the mortar carrier, dont lean back

the fact that they alluded to dedicated aa weapons in the patch notes and said mentioned that 8.0 is a foundation for the future of squad my hopes are high for an ico style update for vehicles. theyve been the same since launch and at this point driving them might be the most immersion-breaking aspect of the game.

I think we may have a sleeping dragon on our hands with china. Amazing armor and even better tows plus their infantry just got better with upgraded rifles and more Hats.

They’re definitely gonna nerf that mortar up, those airburst rounds are no joke. 😂😂😭😭

0:55 You didn't mention the Airburst rounds! 8:01 That wire animation on the TOW is great!

Wonder if the new bradly will get a active protection system that blocks missiles which honestly would be awesome hope turkey gets more ifvs in the future glad turkey got mortar carrier's aswell lol

The FIST is a curious addition, Imo either its going to be getting the ability to lazer designate for commander abilities or it might be a test bed for specific vehicles having Thermals? Just a guess though. I dont mind them adding 'cosmetic' varients for specific Units/Battalions to make them more realistic. Speaking of, id like to see some of the Slat armour come over to Strykers and Abrams on "Insurgency" maps.

We want a video about the T90. I think its armor is not stronger than the T72b3

They need to fix the M1064, the 120 doesn’t point forward like that at all.

i hope that recon trend is gonna be a thing, id love to see the FV107 Scimitar Mk 2 on the british side.

Slay3K des not dissapoint. Thank for this!

I'd have to scroll back to release day but Virus was asked in the discord if the BFIST will have some sort of interaction with mortars or commander call ins, something to that effect, and he responded with "no further comments folks" so that's promising! Seems like it's a bit more than just a balancing addition then, hopefully they can be used for more precise call ins or something. Unit specific commander abilities would be fantastic! Also as someone who's only ever heard them called "M-One-Thirteens" I was constantly very confused as to what the M11s you were talking about were lol not like there's a "correct" way to say that just made me laugh. Looking forward to finally trying this out this weekend after being stuck at work all week!

Dude my favorite thing with this update is they upped the duration of your stamina bar for sprint to 20 seconds with regen taking 12 seconds stopped and crouched, its been 10 seconds of running since the ico with a 10 second regen, but they changed it! I literally counted out my mississippis after noticing and double checked with a stop watch. Playing infantry might become fun again! Instead of masochistic punishment ;)

best thing they added was m113 with 120mm mortar

just played against rgf mech yesterday and we had british comb arms. we got absolutely rolled by the bmps. russian mech is so op

We need upgrades to Blue anti-armor weapons.

i have an rx 570 8gb of graphic card, 16gb of ram and intel core i5 9400f do you think this game can go well? i dont cara if i had to play ion low or medium settings
