It's time for another round of Questions and Answers!
Ground Forces
|
You have chosen not to implement dynamic weather change. So here’s the question: will we be able to see rain in ground (combined) battles? I recall having rain in ground battles 1 or 2 times in all the time I’ve been playing WT. In air battles one may see rain quite often but in tank battles all we see is snow - not enough weather diversity. |
The chance of rainy weather in tank battle is very low since the visibility is really bad and it’s uncomfortable for players. It also makes aircraft almost useless in such battles.
|
SB question: do you plan to change line-ups in order to make them more historically accurate? |
SB line-ups are kind of controversial - we want to use the maximum number of vehicles, maintain balance, and, if possible use vehicles that could actually meet each other in real life. This is how current line-ups are formed.
| Currently destroyed tank tracks bring a moving vehicle to a halt as if braking, however track wheels have no brakes and a vehicle should keep moving a little further and turn a bit. Since wheels have no brakes a tank should still be able to move around the destroyed tracks in a circular fashion. Will you implement anything like that? |
Tank movement with destroyed tracks depends on several factors - especially on the terrain parameters and suspension wheel diameter, transmission type is also important. A combination of these factors may lead to various results. E.g. smaller suspension wheels and soft ground will lead to a turn around the damaged track. Wide suspension wheels and rough terrain will lead to a movement within a small radius. Also we should remember that tracks could be completely jammed after they had been shot at - this is what we have in game and that’s how it would look - immediate braking and turning round the damaged track. We will think about a more detailed implementation of track damage and tank movement, but there is no ETA at the moment.
|
Will you improve rangefinder performance? At the moment it works only with fairly short distances? |
Currently rangefinder works at a distance of 2000 m. And yes, we plan to increase it.
|
Since you added ammo with radio fuses for destroyers, can we expect something like that for the ground AA? K-29, 8.8 cm for example? |
Yes, we plan to introduce distance fuses for ground based AA as well.
Aircraft
|
Will you add 1800 kg bombs to German aircraft that were equipped to carry them? |
It depends on how it will affect its flight characteristics - e.g. will it be able to take-off from airfields that we have in game.
|
Do you plan to introduce new aircraft from 1936-1939, especially bombers? I really enjoy the Hampden and it would be nice to see the Ju-52, Fairey Battle, Armstrong Whitley or Whitworth etc. |
Yes we plan to add some late 30’s aircraft.
|
Will you add strategic bomber prototypes for the German tree? Ju-89, D0-19, Me-264, Ju-390 etc.? |
We have similar aircraft in our general plan.
|
Do you plan to implement wind generated movement for the “lighter” objects? What about movement of shadows from clouds? |
Trees already move and cloud shadows move if the clouds move.

Oh boi I wish the german bomber tree has the He-177 :D
Edit: and important other versions of the He-177 :D
M4g1cK0w, im not 100% sure, but iirc they said the He 177 will be in one of the next updates
"We will think about a more detailed implementation of track damage and tank movement, but there is no ETA at the moment." NICE!!!! Your thinking of it coz Like my Suggestion like a couple of years ago, like here: https://forum.warthunder.com/index.php?/topic/283796-tank-turning-movement-of-tracks-sound/ u will see the reaction force from the tracks how the way it goes like kingtiger
Free Event Vehicle Giveaway!*(*if you live in China Komrade!)))) pbs.twimg.com/media/DHVmu0MXcAAHNMI.jpg Seriously I'd like to ask why China get the E-100 for just LOGGGING IN, whilst the rest of the world has to do the S.U.M.M.E.R. tasks? )))) xaxa
Tiger_x_Wood, Well it's kinda hard to mention since the Chinese server is behind the Great Chinese Firewall, so you'll have to forgive my ignorance on the exact details; yet to still get the E-100 compared to what we're offered is a slap in the face to the rest of the world in my opinion.
Will you ever decompress the BR brackets ?
Timed fuses for muh 88mm halftrack?? Awe yes time to airburst shells over M18s :D
Will there be an option to mirror decals etc on vehicles, rather than having to manually line them up, for example when adding eyes/ mouthes it looks odd if you don't have them properly aligned and the same size.
Can we get a few updates towards the Ju-87s Jericho Trumpets? Such as a revamp of the sound, allowing other players to hear it. And the ability to add them to other models besides the B-2?
and for other players to hear them in both planes and tanks
Will there be anytime radio-controlled bombs or rockets in Navy Battles (since Germany used the Hs-293 for anti ship combat in the atlantic) for planes of course which had used them?
Where do we ask questions? I would like to know if APHE will ever be fixed to a more realistic standard, rather than the magic uniform explosion it now is...
gib HE-177 pls
