Chinese Air and Ground Forces - Become a tester!
Attention! Outdated news format. Content may not display correctly.
A large army needs a major debut! China’s aviation and armoured vehicles arrive in War Thunder! We are beginning the closed beta testing.
During CBT the possibility to research and purchase the Chinese vehicles will be limited. Players that achieve a status of tester or purchase the packs specific to this CBT will be able to research and purchase new vehicles.
How to become a tester
From 11:00 GMT on the 11th of September until 11:00 GMT on the 20th of October.
Get 12 “Tester stars” of one of the forces types to get unlimited access to the Chinese research tree in aviation or ground vehicles. You can obtain 1 star per day for each force type (ground and air).
“Tester star” for tankers
- Win 5 times with a game activity of 60% or higher whilst controlling ground vehicles of rank III-VII.
“Tester star” for pilots
- Win 5 times with a game activity of 60% or higher whilst flying aircraft of rank III-VI.
For example, by getting 12 “Tester stars” for pilots in the “Chinese aviation CBT” you will get access to the research and purchase of all Chinese aircraft.

If I bought the packs before the release of 1.91 would I get the Forums badges automatically?
Yes.
they nerfed the ho's 229 trun time and aceleraition it was bad already
did you just say the ho229 turn time was bad
I'm a ps4 player and i want te become a tester bij buying a premium pack, but i can't buy it in the ps store. Please help?
They will be available soon!
Stona_WT, the main reason that people could buy a bundle is the instant acces, whats the point soon, epic fail once again gaijin
update needs improvements
uh per forza devo guadagnare delle stelle per avere la stessa roba? nah, non ci tengo
WOW this is stupid soo we all waited all summer for this update thinking we were going to get like Sweden or India or some shit and you give us China... I think I saw a total of 3 vehicles in the air and ground that are "new" and now after the update comes out you tell the public they can look but they cant touch, until October 20th. Last time this happened you released NAVAL BATTLES and I spent 50 US dollars on the premium German ship to be a tester yall got me all excited, heres the thing...
i ground out my German naval tech tree spent hours of my time grinding spent an ungodly amount of silver lions and research on all the new German ships only to have my tech tree reset because it became public and i never got my research or silver lions refunded to me! Im not falling for this one again. I hope none of my fellow PC or Console friends here are dumb enough to fall for this money grab just because its been a year dosent mean we forgot your bull shit.
*kingstevo420, WHY WOULD ANYONE WANT TO TEST VEHICLES THAT WE ALL READY KNOW OR HAVE ACCESS TOO??? WOW YOU PUT A 50CAL ON A T34-85!!!! YOU GAVE CHINA CHAFFE AN M18 AND THE T34? Damn you forgot to give china the r3 car!! I think a made up country with made up vehicles would have worked better, or a tech tree full of PROTOTYPE vehicles with no specific country, or you could have spent all this time and energy making all the current country's a new support branch under the existing tech trees. Repair, ammo, men.
New audio sounds great everything else was a waste of my money that funded it
but in all seriousness this update only truly benefits people who are high level and far enough into the game to research things like the F4 or the mig21 us regular people who are only $1000- to $2000 dollars invested in the game (with a few premium vehicles and premium account) don't have enough time in the day to grind out to those top tier jets and tanks, so this thing happens where everyone defaults to M-18s and P-47 spam because gaijin ignores mid tier everyone's bread and butter.
hey gaijin explain to me how the hell we cant unlock these planes yet but i somehow see them in matches like what the fuck
Its because they added Chinese players
Hi i like to be tester
So when do we get the Hungarian,Polish,Czechslovakian,Romanian,Finnish tech trees gaijin?
