What the hell happened to this? This was the one thing you actually needed to do!!!! Planned changes: Reducing the RP costs of researching vehicles and modifications. Reducing the SL costs of purchasing vehicles and modifications. Reducing repair costs. Reducing the cost of ammunition. Reducing crew training costs (including experts and aces). Increasing reward multiplier The War Thunder Team
It's not gone, we have still planned to do this in an upcoming economy update as we wrote in the news : https://forum.warthunder.com/index.php?/topic/444333-economy-changes-in-update-187-%E2%80%9Clocked-on%E2%80%9D/
All answers (7)Ouiche, I hope the economy update is coming soon. It's painful to research vehicles and buy them knowing that they are going to cheaper soon. Maybe we could get a date? Is it a major update?
I like how everything you just said was the part I was most excited for because there is no way I'm going to get any of the vehicles they've added any time soon, but they just apparently thought to not put those changes in this update? I don't want shiny new toys, I want the game to actually be playable.
Nice to see some new mechanics. But i do hope 1.89 brings some new WW2 vehicles. There are a lot of aircraft in the files that you could easily be added. Some of them might not bring that much new to the game. But they will at least be WW2. And top tier vehicles for those nations that don't have any(AND NOT MORE TO US/RU/GER!) And why is the RP cost for Parts and FPE so high for the new Rank 7 vehicles?
Seems they were more interested in ruining heli EC.
PiRa, Ok, it's not WW2 but this is a front page post and I really want the Folland Gnat. More so than the electric lightning (not quite as much as the harrier though). Also, what ever happened to that high altitude heavy fighter that was supposed to follow the hornet?
Wow there is one plane I may be able to get without killing myself grinding it.
Amazing job by the dev as always!!!! Yet again, the update is purely focused on top tier... Why not add one or two ww2 vehicle per updates so players who are still grinding or enjoy WW2 vehicles can have a breath of fresh air? Right now, this update brings nothing new to a lot of players and this have been going on since 1.71. I miss old top tier...
I concur.... lower tier gets your interest back in the game after the high tier camping and stress drives you away
Britain ,japan, Italy and france still need a full ground tech tree like the other 3 Britain missing the cruiser line ACs, france the D1 and 2 ,The bdr ,all trees have more ACs to add so on and so forth
THANK YOU GAIJIN AND ALL WAR THUNDER DEVELOPERS! THIS IS THE BEST PATCH EVER <3
Thanks!
All answers (2)Ouiche, no supersonic for the british :( Ouiche will it come soon?
YES! THANK GAIJIN !!!!!!!!! :) I am going to fly my premium helicopter right now!!!!!!!!
Where's the B-26 ?
There are so many ww2 aircraft's missing :'(
All answers (1)Wolf_89, and Tanks
I'm really curious about this too.
All answers (3)ScudWMarley, because - i guess - the americans already have a lot of bombers. you need 12 bombers to be researched to get to the last B57.
Let me guess. Even more unbalanced matches at a tier I will never reach.
yeah it plays exactly like that actually
Please t14 armata in the next april 1 joke we need it!!!!!
