So are we gonna get a Mirage when everyone else has F-16s and Foxbats? Thanks for the Etendard, but at 9.3 the uptier is gonna clap hard, especially since the Etendard doesn't get magics. What is so bad about giving France competitive missiles and planes?
Also, why is losing so much speed in a turn such a French-specific thing? I'm not complaining, I'm just asking questions.
Mirage is still in the works, and I would rather get a well done Mirage and not a plane that comes out completely broken and ruins top tier, again.
Jag vill leva jag vill dö i norden!
nice i guess, just a shame that Germany got even more broken. now they have the best tanks, jets and ships. . . only the Heli bias is still with Russia but meh. for the next update, could you rework tanks maps cuz there are way to many spots to fire into spawns, new ones in generell, team balancing ( cz its really fair having UK US and Japan with UK and Japan beeing some of the weakest nations to fight against Biasland, Russia, Italy, France and China ) can i have a US UK vs RU only mode ? xD
btw why did the XM-1 GM get a BR raise but the Chrysler didnt ?, how does that make sense or did you just forget to include it into the changelog ?
just checked the Migs, thats really fair that they have 4 AAMs with 18G -.- so another update where i cant play anything above 8.7 cuz its unbalanced as fuck
MIG-21 for Germany yyyyessssssss!
Players can finally change from "when mig21" in all comments to something else :'D
Ouiche, when T90 >:/
this update is not that big.
miniscule in fact
Looks like we spoil you too much. New gfx updates, plenty of new vehicles, new mechanics, bug fixes and at the end of the day all we got is "it's not that big". PS. I can imagine face of Michael Scott reading your comment.
Sooo... More sparks....
But now they are physical objects!
Stona_WT, Stona_WT i have a question so when you shoot a typical round for example when i shoot a apsfds at a tank that it can pen right through will sparks at the back show from the round coming out? also if they fire a HE at the tank will it spark like crazy?
make a modification for BT tanks so they can run without track lol
Funny enough someone suggested this in the War Thunder forums and it was passed for consideration. Either they're working on it or they just put it there to get us to stop annoying them, your pick.
Thanks for the update WT ! New things to test and explore :) Pity that some spoiled kids seem to take everything for granted... Keep up WT Team ! You're doing a great job
Thx for adding Sweden :) Pls let Denmark and Norway be part of the Swedish/Finnish tree in the future. And i can't wait to see what the Future might bring to the Swedish/Nordic tree :)
You claim accurate historical models yet you nerf the Skyrockets climb rate to just over 1,000 FPS when historically it was 4,000. Did you even think about the fact that I paid money for something and you gave me less than what I paid for? I have backed your company, defended it against scrutiny . and put 1,500-2,500 dollars into the game and I will not spend another if you continue to lie and cheat us. You can ban my account, but you will not silence me. It will only further fuel my anger.
Hey, i don't think we touched the XF5F this update. If something is wrong with it, make a bug report with historical sources and we'll have a look (or send me the topic if it was already done). You have to remember we have 1500 planes in the game, it might be a bug, it might be correct - hard to say right now. That being said, if the performances were incorrect, being a premium or not won't change much.
Ouiche, Thank you for your response, No it was not this update that it was changed, it was just yesterday I noticed the difference.
