ok i thought this was 100% april fools,
but apparently not?
if this is serious this is massive for the future of War Thunder, i just hope when implemented, it is a separate mode, if not War Thunder Ground Battles as we know it will cease to exist
from a brief read through it kinda sounds like they might try to intergrate a mini-enlisted clone into War Thunder?
i think it will be a separate mode for sure.
War thunder and Inlisted could merge they run on the same engine
This would be such a nuisance.
If I wanted to fight infantry,
I would go and play Enlisted.
By the same logic Fortnite and, idk, Stalker 2 could be merged because both run on Unreal Engine 5. Game engines dont work like this (including even within own model, but different generations or local variants)
Diffrent Owner you goober Also Inlisted vehicle are Copies of Warthunders same models and damage simulator
the difference between your analogy and the current status is:
Also they could just copy paste everything from enlisted and that the reason why we got only Post-world war and modern guns leaked because there re using enlisted material
According to StatShark, the ground mode is up in terms of popularity 50% from February. Ground RB alone is over 50% of all games now. That kind of growth in a single mode in a 13-year old game would be quite remarkable. Maybe that fact changes some things.
I really do hope they scrap the squad mechanic from Enlisted.
Infantry would need to be able to enter buildings/vantage points. Pretty much all maps in war thunder do not account for that. We would either need extensive map reworks or they add a new game mode with its own respective maps for infantry gameplay
I did random groups for multicrew vehicles all the time in squad and HLL and most of the time its fun, biggest problem here is lack of voice comms.
As for more boring roles like driving, most groups would swap around and share roles after deaths.
They should just pull the plug on enlisted, scrap the vehicle trees, and add infrantry battles to the menus played on enlisted maps with inf tech trees and let you pull vics in from the current trees in warthunder.
How in depth do you think infantry will be? Like if it isn’t its own mode and fight alongside tanks
Think they’ll be able to take control of tanks that were crew killed? Will the last guy in a tank leave it after their other crew are knocked out? (Men of war style repairs?)
Sorry but I am not a fan of infantry, it is one thing to get ride of tank models and planes, but infantry is a bit like battlefield and counter strike.
When will this be added?
Probably next year if i had to guess. (Maybe)
We’ve had 2 test’s of infantry iirc.
1 for player controlled (When they could jump around everywhere. forgot the event.) and one for a.i. WW1 Event.
Unless we count enlisted with it’s multitude of matches, Might be one of the “minor” major updates this year.
With that I am starting to think there could be something interesting with IFVs where they can carry infantry who are sort of ‘escorted’ to capture points and stuff. Could be quite fun.
Has this person had reliable leaks before? Are they a good source?
It’s Olivia, so yes
