CM Covert Disclosures No.4: Information & Q&A with War Thunder Game Director, Viacheslav Bulannikov!

read the chart agian pls

the line that literally shows the point youve demonstrated is in the upper 7000s (7800kgf), your taken value is in the lower ones with 7300kgf.
500kgf per engine missing (or 1000kgf in total) is a lot for a plane that only weighs 11.000kg.

And to the ADV-29 system:
The chart says a thrust of 8000kgf at 0km/h - your picture at 310km/h with open intakes says 6930kgf
thats a whopping 1 fucking thousand kgf per engine missing

So 2000kgf of thrust missing on takeoff - shurely thats within margin of error
(its 1/5 of the aircrafts weight in thrust)
I hope you recognized that that last part was sarcasm

Well, only you, as devs have real data. So maybe share with us.
Or you trying to convince me that my eyes lie to me?

The general point still stands though. 8 minutes is VERY short for the standard game mode. It leaves no room for anybody who doesn’t just want TDM.

I really dont understand why EC isnt worked on and brought back to RB. EC is a great concept for a War Thunder Sanbox.

I imagine Gaijin would have to nerf the rewards into the ground before they brought it back. I think they know it would be the most popular game mode.

Edit: spelling. Struggle busing something fierce with this new phone.

no problem, I may be a little biased in the definition I give due to my activity.

At this point, i would honestly be fine with it. Cut the Air RB rewards in half and give us RB EC back or reduce them down to Sim EC levels.

Its not ideal but it’s a compromise.

Dont you dare touch my Sim Battles EC. They already nerfed the rewards in it.

Q: War Thunder is constantly expanding with new vehicles from other nations, which are implemented into nations already in the game. But are there any plans for separate standalone nations in the future in addition to the 10 already present in the game?
A: Yes, we have plans for separate new nations. But next year, we’ll focus on filling the gaps in existing trees, including adding subtrees of other nations to them, and adding new types of vehicles.

Tech tree suggestions might finally be put to good use : )

can confirm not true max it would be like 40% end in 5 min, and even that’s a high estimate

I didnt say anything about nerfing sim ec anymore than it is. Sim EC should be expanded upon too.

More objectives. Better AI. More stuff to do.

Its a great concept for a mode. Its just under developed.

This isn’t a bug report, this is a discussion.

Better late than never

I do not have access to such data or any communication line with the devs, i just looked at your replay history on the main website and did an eyeball estimate.

I do not know what you have seen, but the numbers on the website that shows the server replays show times closer to previously stated numbers, at least for today, i admittedly did not look further back than that.
What could possibly be happening is confirmation bias in combination with the fact that all humans are programmed biologically to better remember bad experiences compared to good ones.

Please consider bringing back roadmaps! They were a great way to engage with the community, keeping us informed and letting us give feedback! Even if the roadmap schedule ends up being inaccurate (delayed) as roadmaps almost always are, it’s great to see what ideas are in store!

about 1100 per engine different, so 2200 overall

Even if other 55% is 6 or 7 - wont change much.
Especially while ~3 of it just sraight flight without actions.

Top tier Air RB is too short and completely disappointing.

1- I can’t verify your document, and I don’t comment on things I can’t verify.
2- Zero-speed thrust objectively means NOTHING in matches [as much as I want engine performance to be as accurate as possible] cause dogfight speeds are mach 0.4 and faster, and thrust mach 0.4 [technically ~0.35] and faster is correct.
3- DO NOT, I repeat: DO NOT be angry. You and I are on the same page, just different paragraphs.

Its the aerodynamic handbook of the MiG-29, ill send it if you want

No excuses

the thrust at 0.4 is still not correct

7300kgf =/= 7800kgf

Its not the same number, use a calculator it will tell you the same
its simple math, how do you even create an account here without knowing that 7300 doesnt equal 7800.

Saying its equal is like saying 5 is the same as 8, its simply wrong
