sorry guys, but im getting headache from those new sounds of engines, they roar and are too bassy, i ´d prefer old sounds :/
They said “keep your eyes peeled” about Italian tanks, does this mean that Italian tanks are coming in this update as well? I mean more than just the 2 premium ones.
Hey people that stole the snail gods can i haz the gold birds
is there a specific reason for the Narval only have 450% silver lions?
Awesome hangar design, I LOVE IT!
Maybe the real tank's sighs instead of custom ones? and forcing the players in RB/SIM to use the real sighs of its respectives vehicles for example the one with triangles on german tanks. it'll makes it feel more realistic than the generic we use at this moment.
Awesome patch! Just to let you know, there's kind of a typo in this patchnote, I'd say it should be mechanics instead of mecanics...
Everything is great but YYYYYYYY ISSSSS vautor 8.0 wtf?!?!?
yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sauf erreur de ma part, la cocarde à côté des modèles d'avions (plus haut sur la page ) est anglaise .... À bon entendeur ;)
