Year 2018 in War Thunder
Dear friends! Tankers, pilots, and captains! We are pleased to wish you merry Christmas and happy New Year!
2018 was very special for War Thunder: we broke the sonic barrier, discovered helicopters and combat vessels together and we keep on discovering new eras of the combat vehicles and technologies. We obtained vehicles of the new era, got new locations, improved models, graphics and sound.
All these become possible thanks to your contribution, and we were happy to see you in War Thunder in 2018!
What else happened in 2018?
Check your achievements in War Thunder!

but Gaijin please, don't you think it's time for larger top tier maps? I'm not playing in Italy with my T-72 against Abroomz and XM-1's.
The 300 cheaters that are banned every month are a drop in the ocean. And as long as you don't do anything about it, next year I won't pay for anything in the game anymore. A happy new year...
GAIJIN...PATTING YOURSELF ON THE BACK AGAIN? WHEN I STILL CAN'T ACTIVATE ORDERS FROM THE LOADING SCREEN? WHEN I CAN'T AIM THE COMMANDER'S MG ON ANY M13? WHEN I CAN'T DEPEND ON RELEASED MATERIAL ACTUALLY BEING GAME READY? GET OVER YOURSELVES AND GET TO WORK.
Truth brother.
Can't wait to see this all over the live page and reddit
2018 is ending and the linux client is still stinking
"Happy New Year! From Canada!
A very outstanding year for War Thunder,. Thank you Gaijin. Here's to another stellar year for the game, but could you guy's also look at the repair costs for certain tanks ( RB and AB ) and especially SPAA in AB ground battles. Maybe just maybe 1 patch that has some major bug fixes and adjustments to make the game just that much better.. Happy New Year to you Gaijin and to the whole player base.
I find while I have a wish list it is very small compared to all WT has added this year. In the coming year I'd love to see the repair costs rebalanced on the B-29/Tu-4, some adjustments in BR separation in Squadron Battles and Full-scale size Carriers. Perhaps in 2019 , I'll be able to grind for the F-7 Corsair and F-8 Crusader US Navy Jets? Otherwise, I find no other nations could be added, we need only expand existing maps, and need no subs just yet. To all, Happy New Year. JustWill
Oh, and if you get around to it, we could use tanker and sailor icon pic's in both genders, available to new and long time players, just to be fair.
Damn, it's sad, last year we got our most destroyed tanks, and more things to look at other than our K/D in our most played vehicle and some achievements, come on :(
Happy New Year everyone, hoping for much-needed postpen buffs to HEAT(FS), APDS, APCR/HVAP, historically correct pen on many kinds of APCR/HVAP and APDS, nerfs to APHE postpen below 120mm in size, and an appropriate BR reshuffling based on all this stuff. Also Air RB desperately needs an objective structure overhaul. We also need to see EC opened to RB on a BR basis like we have already in Simulator, opened full-time or at least every single weekend. Give the nonfighters a place to call home.
