Comments will be premoderatedIn conclusion after watching the teaser. Another SU-XX plane and rare ground veh for Soviets... yikes... another great update
Is this a Sukhoi Su 30?
that was!... the worst update teaser i've seen in years...cool another top tier jet to fire a missile at from 15 km away whenever it's spotted, where is the cool older stuff?
@ Stona_WT this year on May 9, is the 80th anniversary of VE day. How can players request that WT developers release M4 748(a) and T-34 Prototype for limited sale? It would be a great way to celebrate.
Very underwhelming as gar as these go, we saw 2 planes, a pretty cool AA and another arty piece?
mb339 ?
Pretty sure those hornets will be balanced right? XD
cool...so you're buffing top tier air again and buffing light tanks for the thousandth time with a new rat.....I'm getting sick of the fact that you have yet to fix balancing issues at top tier between air and ground, as well as sitting on bug reports on vehicles that are nearly half a decade old or older. Why can't you fix your game instead.... many of these reports would fix performance issues with certain vehicles as well as build goodwill. It sucks waiting multiple years to wait for fixes...
Glad to also see that the f 18 is getting added. I pray it’s a premium or something cus I have not grinded air yet. Also I can’t wait I’m so close to the war thunder partner ship all I need is more views n I’m good. Thanks y’all
Nice to see the Tracked Rapier make an appearance finally...
