"in-depth" view on new tech? as the camera comes out to surface.. my guess is some submarines!
yeet
Rather disappointed about that French plane. Nobody has been asking for it so why bother?
O.o?
Pros: War Thunder has been in constant development since it started as beta. Cons: The cry baby kids who sleep in mommy's basement will never be happy.
You could definitely file that Con, under Pros :)
Anything new or easy to unlock for us dudes still in rank 2 or 3? Stuff's getting a little boring down here
You should check full changelog. We have many low tier vehicles to unlock :)
Stona_WT, Hell yeah. Sherman.
love how I cant even try a Premium plane with its Secondary Weapons now love this update
More than 60? Are you guys have conscience? Sherman and sherman and stuat and hellcat.
I like how you ignore majority of totally brand new machines and decided to name only few you know from the past.
Stona_WT, "More than 60 new machines!" I like how you ignore fact that this the update include: 19 tanks, while 8 are just copied from other tech trees; 23 planes, 4 already existing in other tech trees, and 7 versions of the same plane; 4 helicopters (don't know about them exactly, so you have let say point in this field); 25 ships. Let's summarize: 71 "brand new" machines, while I only can clarify 50 as new. Meaning machine has been copied doesn't mean it's new in the game. 50 + 7 (F-104s) = 57. 57 &...
Fix the Scimitar rudder
Please submit bug report. Thanks!
Great update Just one thing, on ps4 the multi functional menu doesn't freeze all other functions of the axis/stick it is assigned to and I found no way to change this. Which makes it impossible to use
Yes same problem.
i hope that "in depth video's about our new tech" with that giggle and shot coming out of the water mean sub-chaser will have subs to chase next major update silent thunder 2.0?
Awesome that we get the F-104, but are there any plans to add the F-105 in the future? In addition are there plans to add SAMs to higher tier jet combat? It would be awesome to run Wild weasel missions in game if that's the case
