War Thunder presents
Update 1.65 "Way Of The Samurai"
Dear players! We are releasing the long anticipated 1.65 major update with which our game has also released and so are happy to introduce “Way of the Samurai”! While your launcher is downloading files and our most impatient players have not yet opened the full list of changes, we would like to show you the most interesting features of the update.
New Locations
Pilots and tankers will get new experiences as they play on the new locations “38th Parallel” and “Abandoned factory” whilst driving or flying new and updated vehicles!
“38th Parallel” | “Abandoned factory” |
Aircraft
A big change for aviation - we have created 3D cockpits for all aircraft in the game - including attackers and bombers.
New game mechanics: Hydropneumatic suspension
Behind a complex definition, hides a very useful combat ability to change the angle of the tank’s hull in all directions or the ability to ‘hunker down’ the vehicle, seriously reducing its height. Of course, only on vehicles that use this type of suspension.
Japanese ground forces
And of course the main heroes of this update - the Japanese tanks! Armoured vehicles of the Land of the rising sun have arrived! If you want to be the first to try them - check the news about the beginning of testing and how to join the testers team.
Type 74 | Type 61 | ST-A1 | Type 3 Chi-Nu |

See you on the battlefield!

Will both premium US and Plagis's Spitfire LF Mk.IX get the 12.7mm mg like the regular one got on this update? They used to be identical and now you buff the regular one while players who bought the premium ones keep them less powerful version while still having the same BR.
Great work on ignoring questions about this update changes from players that always supported this game!
any fix for lack of AA players in sim tank battles???
what vehicles have the new hydrolics?
Japanese high tier tanks.
is this a joke? haven't been able to play more than 1 map and got insta killed by a pesky brit SPAA straight away. how come seceral hundred waiting for battle, and 1 hour long qeues? couldn'tr you have anticipated this and made jap able to fight each other in aswell or something, atleast initially ? really bad planning of Gaijin.
ANd no i play RB, nothign else is really fun, Aracde is for noobs and kids, historically inaccurate, bad mechanics and rush CoD kinda playstyle, no realistic driving, aiming, and other noob stuff.
You did not wait 1h in queue. Japan vs Japan in RB is possible if queue is longer than few minutes.
gj gaijin
my launcher continue to crash 4 hours already ...WTF gaijin ???
done ... after 4 hours deleting downloading updating .. ;d
Amazing work, guys and girls of Gaijin!!! As an enthusiastic modeller, professional pilot and amateur programmer I am very grateful to you for your wonderful work, for making this historical gaming gem so brilliant, and for your constant dedication to improve it. I always read the whole changelogs, watch videos and test models: you are geniuses!!! My support is and will be with you. Congratulations!! And thank you very, very, very much...:))
Thank you! BTW, are you fan of that old TV Series? ;)
Stona_WT, Ha ha...!!! Yes, I am, and I am "old" too, 52 years old here... but "gaming seriously" WT :)) Congratulations again!!! And as I told before, I've been watching many of your production videos, music videos, and "googling" a lot after that, and I must confess that you guys are "responsible" for my increasing curiosity to visit Russia some day. One curious thing: when I was a child I liked very much the song "Do not hurry" but then I lost the records... and now is a main music of WT!!! :)) Thanks!!
Honestly after driving japanise reserves for a while they are worse than brit reserves.
COMPLETE thanks too for the Bomber Cockpits, BUT FIXX THE RANDOM shells changing direction and the unreal shrapnelling and killing crew.. PLEASE PLESE
on last 200MB transfer hit 0Bs :(
