As per usual, the War Thunder development team is amazing. Everyone working on War Thunder, regardless of role, should get a pat on the back. Keep it up, lads.
would had enjoy more to see the S.35 hull armor fixed, the MB.157 finally receiving his LMG and see a few low and middle rank vehicles for the Japanese, french and British ground forces.
And yet, Ground battles are swarmed by air. Every game theres atleast 8 planes in sky...and even one game where enemy team got destroyed fast and next spawn was almost all planes..... Plus thanks to planes there is alot more lost games - like where enemy team capping bases and our team 5 out of 7 players are in air and we lose by cap. They should better rework all plane crap in GROUND games - restrict 2-3 planes max per game, or lower income for air in ground games by x3.
trrprrprr, i dont think thats gonna happen. i belive devs think thats too harsh my opinion atleast for realistic 2 ground spawns and 1 air and massively increase income on the ground.
waiting for the CBT of naval battles.
Soon tm
Same here.
Japanese ground forces and air forces got love as always... not that the suggested vehicles on the War Thunder forum provides any detailed info and pictures...
Detailed info and some pictures =/= enough for implementation. Months of work go into each machine for a reason.
Problem is that Japanese documents in general are hard to come by
Kaanfight, True that
XM-1, XM-1 Spam everywhare!
No worries. You can kill them with the IAR-81C :)
All answers (1)Jaws, The problem is not that they are difficult to kill or anything but this thing is mostly play by noobs who have no high tier tanks but only one XM-1. Once they die they have no vehicle to backup and it affected my team because not only they are useless and die freaking fast but after they died they just left the game leaving those who already researched through high tier fighting against enemy team that still is full of players! This badly affected in AB.
But it's so bad...
when we will have the Xbox release?
lots of X's not Xbox though, maybe later today?
All answers (1)FltSgt_Maus, it would be nice, but i feel like we will have to week a bit more
A bit later! We're focusing on 1.79 right now, Xbox in a few.
All answers (2)Ouiche, Chuck Norris give you 24h
"The ability to ‘mirror’ decals on vehicles has been added." - biggest highlight in 1.79! :D
Took long enough
The new update is lovely, great job! But why did you ignore everyone saying to give the DM33 to the Leopard 2A4? The Type 90 got it, and that tank is even better than the Leopard, while being in the same BR.
We believe the 2A4 is already very strong! We'll see how it's doing in the future.
All answers (1)Ouiche, Yeah with like all the scources of the world about its armour and stuff its mere useless in games. Pretty much every game my gun and breach gets broken. Cause 1. the gun trunnion is missing and 2. it has the wrong thickness it should be made out off titanium and should be 420mm thick
How about this: Instead of giving DM33 to even more tanks, think of the possibility of taking JM33 from the type 90 and giving it DM23 instead The Leopard is already powerful enough, and doesn't need anything more to compete at top tier.
