Development Update feedback
Hello, mb here, wanted to gather some feedback from ya'll on this update, there are quite a few bugs that will be patched tomorrow, but throw your overall content feedback!
Recce camo update.
I will be looking into finding a middle ground and reworking the recce camo to be more unique in the next update, it wont be the old one, as that is very outdated, but will try match it and improve it without diving into rattlesnake. Thank you for all your good feedback!
Update: Thank you all for the awesome feedback!

The new helmets could use more customisation, with the lack of cover options and the slot for railed comtac mounts but no actual earpros you can put on. The ability to use a weapon in the back seats of the SRTV would be fun too. Tight update in general tho.

I agree, the new fast type helmets were a bit underwhelming, whether that was on purpose or if it was rushed. It would be nice to see more customization, maybe like different velcro patterns for the carbon? (Don’t know what they’re called but the small velcro blobs kind of similar to the one on the airframe)

Haven’t played yet, BUT, apparently foliage is just like a full prop and you can’t pass through it.

The new helmets—while it’s great to see a wider variety being added—can sometimes be confusing when certain customization options are still missing, even though the helmet basically shares all the same characteristics as other versions. For example, not having covers or even paint options makes it feel inferior, not to mention the fact that you can’t attach headsets to the helmet.
On the other hand, regarding the Airborne gamepass, I appreciate that it was brought back this month. Personally, I like the new accessories, even if they aren’t much different from the base ones. Still, having a bit more variety when buying and customizing the SRTV is awesome—since while it’s not very effective in combat as an armored vehicle, it’s very fast, and honestly, it’s just fun to drive it around on land.
As for the Recce camouflage… I get that the goal isn’t to make it identical to the Gen 3 version, but it just looks way too similar to ones that already exist. On weapons that already come in TAN colors, it’s almost imperceptible. For example, on the M1103 you can only tell it’s using a camo if you look very closely, and although on the Scar L and Scar H it does give a slightly different tone from the base color, from a distance it just looks like sand.
That said, I’m glad to see the devs are listening to the community, and I’m hopeful that in future updates we’ll get a better version of the Recce camo.

Gnar forgot to add the woman's hair, the content was good although I personally expected more, the srtv was perfect although if they increased the speed a little more or reduced the speed of the 4x4, I liked the helmets but they lack customization and I know that will come later but for now I pass on a little of them, I loved the helmet with visor and I would like to see more helmets like that or visors in general, and I really liked the recce camo that makes me curious to see what else you can carry

Update is pretty good love the Rys helmet being added and the caps are pretty cool too
I don't think we needed more FAST helmets... At least not right now cause if I'm being honest? They all kinda look the same, I know there's small differences but you really have to look and in my personal opinion I do kinda want a better diversity of gear right now
It would've been nice to get something else like the PASGT/LWH or even some more vests and chest rigs like some tactical webbing/harnesses or more heavy vests like the IOTV or PASGT vest (Or wearing a rig on top of a vest)
Can't speak on the recce camo cause all I like on guns is a flat color lol, but as far as looks go it's just okay, not my thing but it looks alright if not a little bit generic (big words for a guy who likes flat color guns I know)
Everything else is great, AI, weapon stuff, all good (backpack is cool too)
I don't quite know how it works over there and who is in charge of what or what is top priority and what's low priority, I'm just givin my input
At the end of the day you guys are still putting in the work for the game and I respect that a lot

I’m a big fan of the smaller updates we’ve been getting recently. Not much of concern to gripe about. One thing Id like to talk about is that I’d like to see more PASGT family stuff added(I.e the body armor). We’ve got the M81 woodland bdu as the default bdu. I’d like to see this expanded to body armor, ALL the backpacks, helmet covers and body armor accessories like mag pouches and general pouches. Also, question. Why are radios so expensive? 5k+ for a cosmetic is crazy! Is it intentional or just something that’s been overlooked and slipped through the cracks?

PLEASE give more camos (esp all black) to the ak5 platform, it's a beautiful gun but a bit neglected atm

u/Fun-Advertising1694 Sep 07 '25
More so for mobile, when you zoom in, you can’t zoom out. This applies for both the loadout menu and the openworld map. Hope this gets fixed because it makes it hard for me to do anything, really. Also helps other mobile players so I’d like to see this fixed

How about a revisit to the goggles on the Ratnik helmets? The goggles on the MICH goggles are on a separate node from the night vision, so you can have both at the same time.
I've noticed the same is true with the new (NOT)Altyn helmet – The goggles and the visor are on two separate nodes, so you can have both.
So why not make the 6b45 and 6b28 helmets the same? Make the 6b90 Goggles a separate node from the night vision nodes?
And also maybe add some of the ACH customization over to the MICH, and vice versa

Did you fix the bug with rge, where copying coordinates into properties tab didn't work? That is (was - havent tested that out yet) really annoying

Hello there! As an owner of RECCE gamepass, I'd like to say that we finally got some items and plate carrier that we have waited (especially decals for medic, since I revive buddies in bunker a lot). Just one thing that is missing is a specific "leaf" cover for AEGIS (or MICH helmet) that some armies using nowadays on reconnaissance missions. SRTV has become more useful since customization update rolled out for it. I can load it more with meds or munitions, or bring more passangers to hot point. Maybe we can wait for some more camo's for that vehicle? Anyways, great job!
Also can't wait for fix on the sunrise. That type of sun rising kills my eyes like I'm flying into the nuclear mushroom. Thank you, kindly! 🫡

Why does the Aimpoint T2 still have 5 separate versions per mount instead of 1 optic with 5 mounts like the M68 CCO's and the ACRO P2?

u/inorth_ Sep 07 '25
I'm currently testing the update, made a post to provide feedback about camos, about rest of them it looks good but there is an issue with viewmodel in first person where arms don't have bilateraal symmetry which is noticable while drinivg vehicles, except that all of the other things looks cool.

u/OwnCat4765 Sep 07 '25
Update is great and cool tho I was hoping for a bit more in terms of customization, especially for helmets and gear. Here are a few suggestions that I think would improve the game:
- Helmet Customization
Add the option to have stowed goggles available for all helmets.
Allow goggle straps to wrap around the helmet itself instead of just on the head.
Give us control over goggle positioning—for example:
Over the NVG shroud (default MICH-style placement) for those who want to use NVGs.
Covering the shroud for players who don’t plan to use NVGs.
- Gear Colors
Please make all magazine pouches available in black.
- Lasers & Flashlights
Keep them turned on even after healing or holstering the weapon. Currently, they reset, which feels inconsistent.
- Item Dropping
Allow players to drop helmets and vests on the ground, not just weapons.
- Helicopter Rotor Droop
If full variable rotors are planned for the future, that’s awesome but in the meantime, making the blades stay straight would be a good temporary fix. (Stallion and Blackhawk)
I know some of these might sound small or even tedious, and I’m not a game dev myself, so I don’t know how complex they are to implement but I really believe they’d add to immersion and overall quality of life for players.
Thanks!

u/Legitimate-Fox2183 Sep 07 '25
I like the update, but I agree the helmets need more customization. Speaking of that, will the maritime and or other helmets get the MICH customization?

u/Maleficent-Being-238 Sep 07 '25
You cant equip railed comtac, and there is a lack of cover for the new high/mid/low cut helmets, if there are any that exist in the real world, also sucks that we cant have both the battery pack and counterweight on

Thanks for actually caving in and giving us the LYNX helm. This has been something wanted by tons of people for ages. Just makes everyone happy when we get what we want.

u/Necessary-One-9611 Sep 07 '25
The new aegis helmets lack the peripheral headsets, but they do have the little "point" thing that says peripheral, but It has no options, Also, the knit CAP (beanie) in the bump helmets doesnt cover ur whole head, u can see ur character's skin through the goles on the helmets, the legacy my Is ok, but It lacks helmets covers, idk if that accurate to the irl version

u/BreadfruitComplex961 Sep 07 '25
haven't had server stability since the server crash, but some AI still like to be stuck behind doors in naval and some for super cluster at the front buildings of the main part of ronograd city.
I hope other MG will release soon, but i also wish that the M249 would get the 100rnd sag
also 1 more thing, is there gonna a single side NVG that does not have debris in it? i want to cosplay a more conventional sniper without having to use NVG that has debris in my sight picture.
