Happy Birthday Warthunder, and thank you for all your hard work
Cool. Now who cares. How about you fix things like your servers, or spawns in an event for a plane people wanted. Thanks to your pathetic spahghetti coding i watsed 14 hours for the po-2 which i wasnt even able to get thanks to an entire day of server issues, repsawning and hitting cliff faces/INSIDE cliffs, snow smoke trails, and breaking of gears giving + 50kmh speed. Im pissed at you guys right now
Hope you're doing alright, Stona. Have a good one
Cheers mate
No matter what update comes out, I always come back to this game, sometimes its a miss, sometimes a hit, I can't deny how unique the game is. o7 comrades.
happy biryhday war thunder : > love you all
<3
Little did i know in 2013, that when a friend suggested the game i would still be playing in 2021, imo the most addictive and fun game i ever played for those interested in combat vehicles of any kind, to 9 more years of warthunder!
we are on ups and downs but still here we are for the love of the game, im level 100 now playing for about 5 years on this game and still learning more everytime i play...not to mention some of my teamates cursed me for not taking objectives lol..enough of my words i just want to thank WAR THUNDER and HAPPY BIRTHDAY BUDDY
Happy birthday War Thunder. If I could make a wish when you blow out the candles on your birthday cake, it would be to see you go backwards in time, as well as forwards, by adding WWI planes as a new tier. I would be great to be able to fly the S.E.5, Sopwith Camel or Albatross into large battles taking down Handley Pages or zeppelins, with premiums like Richthofen's red Fokker Triplane. There would be many new opportunities for vehicles and create a whole new genre... please xxxx
<3 <3 <3 LOVE <3 <3 <3 THE POSTER! <3 <3 <3 Those April Fools events are the MOST FUN!! Never forget the Inflata-Tonks and Pony Force!
I love the T-90 and Apache in the April fool poster, and how they are no longer top BR units anymore. Really shows how far this game has come.
