Can you guys please fix the amphibious vehicles in the game like the BMP two or the Strella? Or even just fixed the water physics because I highly doubt a 70 ton tank would be bobbing up and down in the water like a fishing bob. Can’t even use some bodies of water to try to flank without drowning in my BMP2

It’s so goofy that tanks have 0 effect on waves and ripples.

Yeah, it would sink straight to the bottom like it does in game (xD)

I just went in the water today with my Italian AUBL/74 HVG and OMG you are right. The amphibious vehicles are SO bouncy, even in calm water. I could barely keep it going in a straight line, and even less try and shoot anything. Even though it has a fully stabilized cannon.
I do not remember the amphibious vehicles being so bouncy like this before. Imo, this is a bug/glitch, though I do not know at what point/which patch this started happening.
Does anyone know if there is an existing bug report for this? I am going to check really quick, but please post a link if anyone already knows of one. Thanks!

Ok, I think this is the most recent AND open ticket:
https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/vNAXOB81boIg
@侍KAMIKAZE侍 do you have any updates/extra info to add? I clicked “I have the same issue” on this report. I will see if I can get a video replay to add to your report, though I had issues trying capture a video before with my Nvidia app. Will see if it works later today. (I added a new comment to this report to try and bring more attention to it.)

This happen because, I believe at least, that water in War Thunder isn’t a fluid you can interact with but rather and static mesh with constant animation.

The only and I mean ONLY map where a tank can swim without performing 16G manouvers due to waves the size of sparrow’s turd is Kuban, with it’s flank lake near A. I tried on my Ka-Mi tank and managed to have a smooth ride.
But gaijin doesn’t care about amphibious vehicles, they don’t even tell you they can swim, they lowered the river lever on eastern Europe to “facilitate” it’s traverse but only made it so tanks can no longer get out and of course the “waves” are still there
