Dear players!
At 17:30 GMT February 27th we will be launching a testing of the new event, where you can choose for yourself which battle you would like to join. Moreover after the battle ends you may still stay in the chosen room to join the next battle with the same team lineup.The mechanics are the same as in Custom Battles.
Mode features:
- Besides an option to join a random battle players also has an opportunity to choose a specific room for themselves.
- The available room list shows only those battles that have vacant places to join.
- A player is able to enter a room only if they have the required vehicles in their hangar slots. They also have an option to choose a specific battling party in case there is no significant advantage in the number of players by the opposite party.
- After the end of a battle, the room remains open and the next battle will start after a period of time automatically with the same participants.
- The next battle won’t start if the number of players on either sides does not meet the balance requirements - In such a case, a countdown will begin and if the teams do not meet the balance requirements before it ends, the room will be disbanded.
- The room description shows the time passed after its creation. A player may join a room any time as soon as they meet the requirements.
- Battles created in such rooms provide the same rewards and achievements as in any other events.
Features of this test:
- Pacific War battles (British aircraft vs Japanese aircraft and American aircraft vs Japanese aircraft)
- Several different events available
- Respawn mechanics are the same as in the Air AB
- The following vehicles are available: 1st - Aircraft of BR 3.7 - 4.7, 2nd - Aircraft of BR 5.0 - 6.3.
- Battles will be held in Simulation mode
- Choose "automatic repair" option in the hangar so that aircraft are available for fly-out in the the next session
- Carrier spawns have been temporarily changed to air spawns
The test may be stopped at any time!

"Battles will be held in Simulation mode" Meaning that it is accessible only for less than 1% of the playersbase, guys who owns both a joystick and a TrackIR. Nice. Well played, Gaijin. Meanwhile, realistic players cant play it.
You don't need a joystick or trackIR...Yes, I play RB most of the time but I also play sim and I did just as good as other with a mouse and keyboard alone. I have a joystick now and it is hardly any different.
You know why Sim gets to test this? How many sim players do you see who come onto forums and complain, "whaaaa, (insert thing here) isn't available to me" and instead get dedicated players who give honest feedback. Sim players are focused on improving themselves as pilots/tankers, don't waste time complaining. We have achieved zen. But since you are on the topic, it's about time Sim got some love, ESPECIALLY for Naval Air battles.
i dont like this it will take for some players ages to yoin on spesific maps and it wuld decrese the number of players on war thunder
LOOKS LIKE DEDICATED SERVERS ARE COMING.
That was soo cool, i hope there will be more events with these "room" 'system'.
So what? When are the rest of the maps going to go into rotation? Getting real sick of playing the same old tired maps over and over and over and over. Get with the program Gaijin. We want more diversity, No, we NEED more diversity.
New Japanese jets. When.
GAIJIN!!! HELP! I need my daliy devblog!
I wuld like if gijin removed this feature becuse its boring and it will tramke much more time to finde a match
Frig man, I saw this in class today and was hyped to try it out. How long till the new mode is stable again?
