In this digest we would like to tell you about our continuing work on improvements and fixes in the game. You can find information about all updates that have been released in War Thunder on the website special section.

Improved the Visibility of Decals and Decorations

We continue working on the UI to make it even more handy and helpful. This time we’ve changed the look of the achievements that grant you decals and decorations. Previously, icons of customization elements that you didn’t have were darkened, and that made them less readable.

In the new UI iteration the items that haven’t been unlocked yet will have icons of locks on them. The keys to those locks are your battle merits.

Polished the VR Experience

We’ve fixed a few errors that occurred when playing War Thunder in VR headsets. If you’ve encountered black lines on the sides — rest assured, you won’t see them again. Tank sights now show correctly. And finally, we’ve increased the field of view in the gunner’s sights when turning the gun of the vehicle: after all, in a virtual reality headset you especially need an ability to look around.

From Dusk till Dawn

If you’ve played an air mission during dusk, you may have stumbled upon a weird sight where the ground darkened instantly, even though the sky was still bright. You’ve guessed right: such an occurrence was an error that felt wrong and got in the way of admiring the landscapes.

We’ve fixed it! Now the battles during dawn and dusk will look as romantic as they should.

Burn Brighter!

Incendiary bombs are now even more useful! The damage that bombing bases take from a flame mixture was notably increased, and now incendiary bombs are more effective than HE bombs. After all, flame mixture is supposed to work on buildings much better than on vehicles.

That’s Not All

You can find the full list of improvements in a separate patch note. Check it out:
