Dear players!
The event, which we started for the 1st of April has come to an end, but our work on War Thunder continues.
We thank you for your feedback, it was very nice to read them!
This testing was successful in the first place because many of the mechanics in War Thunder have already been implemented before: X-Ray view, ATGMs, different types of shells, their distribution in the vehicle etc. War Thunder was ready for modern vehicles. New mechanics, which were implemented specially for the event will be tested for main game modes in War Thunder.
Implementation of such a mission was only possible with support, which you give us every day. Thanks to all the hundreds and thousands of people that helped us to test IXth rank. It was an absolute record among all of our 1st of April events by the number of players alone.
See you on the battlefield!
The War Thunder Team

WT FOR THE WIN!
the event is great the idea is great too and for real thou i wish there could be a training area for helicopter
Very unimpressed with the April Fools events since Gajilla (which I couldn't work out how to get into at the time anyway - I have a feeling it only ever made it to the test server as I couldn't see how to get into it on the real server - would have really enjoyed to have played that one). Since then they have all been tank or ship related - I have no interest in driving tanks or ships. Looking forward to the introduction of combined forces mode where I can fly against tanks, if it ever happens.
That "combined forces mode" is called Tank Realistic Battles, where those who dare getting a tank gets instantaneously raped by a plane, what is exactly what you want to do...
Thank you Gaijin for making this awesome game and improving it everyday!!! I will support you guys as much as I can.
This brilliant event shows the way.. -Equal Tanks (no more this unfair +/- 1,0 BR Matchmaking) make happy players who really enjoy the game. Devs must decrease to +/- One Step the Matchmaking BR. e.g. at BR 5,0 must be 4,7 - 5,3, at BR 6,7 must be 6,3 - 7,0 etc.. -No kamikaze planes. Use similar code & rules from Realistic Ground Forces. Using planes from player's slots with cost of repair-damage-ammo etc..
The thing I loved about this event was that everyone was equal, because they had the same machines . You didn't have the ridiculous BR spread you have in the normal game, and this made it enjoyable to play. There were no "Pay to Win" tanks like the T29, so it was all down to skill to determine the outcome. I hope Gaijin learns from this, but somehow I doubt they will.
More modern tonka trucks!
''new mechanics, which were implemented specially for the event will be tested for main game models in War Thunder''. Smoke launchers confirmed?
are u going to add smoke for existing tanks? like leo.chiften etc?
