Dear players,
Firstly, we would like to extend our sincerest apologies to each and every one of you. We deeply regret the fact that our actions have let you down, and that we have failed to adequately address the concerns you have voiced over time. We share your passion for the game, and it pains us that our decisions have not lived up to your expectations.
Over the past week, we've been diligently analyzing the feedback you've provided. We acknowledge and agree with your concerns regarding the balance of the economy (Silver Lions and Research Points), as well as modification research. We have therefore prioritized addressing these issues as our immediate concern.
We are in the process of creating a plan to tackle these problems. While we have made some initial progress in understanding the scope of these issues and potential solutions, we anticipate providing a more detailed roadmap by the 14th of June.
We understand the urgency you feel for changes to be implemented, and we assure you, we share your eagerness. However, given the scale and complexity of a project like War Thunder, some time is required to ensure that any changes we make are both effective and beneficial to the player experience.
We are also continually reviewing the vast array of other feedback and suggestions we receive. Rest assured, these are important to us and will be addressed, but at this moment, our first priority remains the game's economics and progression.
We are truly sorry for the disappointment and frustration that we have caused. We commit to you that we are doing everything we can to improve the game, and regain your trust.
Thank you for your understanding and patience during this time. We value your continued support and your dedication to the game we all love.

Comments will be premoderatedThank you Gaijin
Im sad it had to come to this but the result will hopefully be worth it. THANK YOU OH GREAT SNAIL.
Don't thank them yet. Wait for something to actually be done.
Now thats a proper way to apologize, not like what Kirill Yudintsev response was.
Finally, there is hope.
I look forward to give feedback on the changes with the road map. Hopefully everything gets sorted out for the better.
Arguably in the future Gaijin can prevent such a massive backlash by first listening to why people are extremely dissatisfied with changes instead of putting out a completely tone deaf statement that exists to insult and further enrage the community. Economy is a touchy issue, notably the sheer grind and income issues any average player will have if they do not pay, let alone the sheer premium spam found at any rank if not having teams of solely premium players and basic issues like compression.
Now we need to see the changes actually come into effect to know if it was all talk or not.
This is understandable. We're working on it so we can bring you more details.
This looks promising, I'm exited to see what you guys come up with on the 14th.
Looking forward to the roadmap. Gaijin, you have a big chance here, dont waste it
I appreciate you used "don't waste it" instead of harsher words ;)
Thank you for posting this. This is what the community expected initially and this will absolutely help to calm people down. It would be very nice if a representative could speak to the playerbase with a live Q&A on or around the day of the roadmap being published to answer any concerns the players may have.
