Game states I can't research the OS2U-3, it's in the listing but I can't choose it. Heinkel-51 Ausf. Float is apparently part of a special pack. They're part of the event but not available to most players?
i see what you're doing gaijin. release the BV 238, the by far most well defended float plane, then immediately have an event for it. everyone will want it (even more) after seeing how well it does. I approve actually. Good marketing and it will give a good idea of how good (or bad?) this plane is relative to its peers. now I'm going to see if I can land on one with my good ol PBY.
OS2U-1/-3??? Why are those in the list, weren't they removed from in game? I had a forum post about them not too lang ago and I was told they were removed...
what the hell is wrong with war thunder at the moment i can't play tank battles and i can't play this
Please!!! Gaijin Developers and War Thunder Game Designers and Builders... ENOUGH with the new "AIR DOMINATION" style battles. They are nothing but time and Silver lion wasters to people who are in the middle of the grind with bombers and other similar slow, poor air-to-air combat capable aircraft. The Random Battles in Arcade Mode seem to be opening with an approximate 35- 40 % rate of all battles. This game seems to be very similar in detail to the Air Dominations. Thank you. ZarkenVentret
