It is september and stll no fix ? Having the same problem with different LINUX Distros and diffent hardware.
Shortly after joining a gound battle the game hangs with 1 FPS for about 5 seconds returns to normal for about 5 seconds hangs for about 1 second and with disabled V-sync runs with 500+ fps till the next game starts.

I have this same issue as well. I normally only play Realistic Ground Battles and accidently played some Arcade battles and noticed, this issue didn’t appear at all - Strange how it’s only in the realistic battles.

Hello everyone,

This issue should be fixed with the latest update (2.49.0.25) so could you all please let me know if any of you are still experiencing this issue?

I’ve done a couple of GRB matches and haven’t gotten the 5 second freeze so it seems to be working for me at least.

Hello, I can confirm that the main freezing where my OS usually ask me to kill the game is no longer present. However there is still a smaller freezing at the start of the game of around half a second, much better experience overall, thank for finally fixing it!

Right, Thank you for confirming it’s been fixed for you. Could you please submit a bug report regarding the smaller freeze you are still getting?

Nope, the issue still present for me. Ground rb start of match and 5-10 sec freeze if lucky only 2-3. Im using steam to access the game, since recently warthunder launcher also fails to boot on linux for me.

Could you plese post your system information from the inxi -F command? The freeze that was fixed was a very consistent freeze around 5 seconds long so you might have a different issues.

looks like they finely fixed it (there is still a single freeze but its extremely short so i could live with that)
