Infantry in War Thunder: Third Testing Phase!

Massive planes that are also a massive target. In the current state of the game, they would be pretty much defenseless even in infantry mode.

Either put them in the helicopter tree in their own line or they could be in their own section of the air tree but just not allowed to be taken into air battles.

Multicrew, with tanks and combat?

nah I’m just curious

their was ifv but the spaa change is better

In the topic for the second testing phase you said the infatry CBT should be available for console players during this testing phase:

War Thunder Infantry: The Second Testing Phase! - #106
War Thunder Infantry: The Second Testing Phase! - #187 by Stona_WT

What is the reason for not inculding console players in this CBT phase?
Will console players get acces to the CBT, if yes do you know when? Or do console players have to wait for the open beta testing?

they said that for the second testing phase not the third (current)

They said this in the topic for the second testing phase and this third testing phase is the next test window is it not?

oh mb didn’t see that

I guess it is

Yes, 12 guys with M16’s shooting down MASSIVE planes, very realistic

That’s how the US lost Vietnam . . . . . lol

Oh wait, sorry I forgot . . . this is MODERN warfare, only takes one
peasent with a RPG(on a moped for good measure!) . . . . my bad . . . .

My point was(is) I think adding more “foot” to foot soldier/infantry
would be a more realistic approach and also improve gameplay, for infantry.

If they want to develop a Full On mode for “Combined Arms” utilizing ALL
military aspects/assets the game has to offer . . . that would be a different thing
altogether . . . to me anyway.

What is wrong with Infantry just being that, infantry? . . . all I am asking .
Please WWI and maybe some later eras as well(Korean Conflict, Vietnam).
Mashing all these modern weapons into a close quarters infantry style
set up seems pretty silly.

There are a lot of people that like the earlier ranks/tiers in all game modes
more than the high tier modern stuff. It’s not a sekrit or a sin, just personal
preference. The game’s dynamic was set up early on for ranks I - V, worked
pretty well. As time went on, more vehicles, ranks and nations, things changed.

No big deal, was to be expected. But when everything else was added to the game,
tanks with tank CBT, naval CBT and even helis . . . they did not add the highest
possible BR and tiers first . . . never not once. Why do you suppose that is??

My guess is it’s the same carrot on a stick they have been dangling the past
6+ years . . . . modern warfare.
carotte

It has been the business model for a good long time now.
All I am asking is maybe for some more options of different eras
that have more of a focus on game play and less on Whizz Bang!

Does that make me a terrible person? . . . if so, then I guess I am.
I don’t think fun game play and some more variety is a big ask . . .

So did you forget about MANPADS? These gun ships do not have a very long range

Key word: “Should” .
Plans can (and evidently do) change.

I hope the console players get to join in testing soon though :)

No, not really . . . the comment - “only takes one
peasent with a RPG(on a moped for good measure!)”
was a very broad & generic reference, nothing specific.
But the fact you go directly to “MANPADS” just proves my point.

@Stona_WT Is the idea of adding aircraft to infantry mode no longer being discussed, or is it still possible to hope that aircraft will be added to this mode?

A game so bloated that every addition introduces 2 bugs and 2 historical inaccuracies, maps, br system and game modes decade old and incredibly in need of massive re-work (Also naval, that is a horrific abomination of a game branch). What does Gaijin do? add a new massive game branch that will basically ensure the game will die before anything actually gets better. Great job Gaijin, keep adding half assed slop until the game becomes too big to even function and then kill it…

sorry to hear that but too busy having fun with Inf

Yeah i know, i did not mean to imply it was some kind of promise. I was simply wondering why the plans were changed and if consoles will still be able to participate in the CBT or if we have to wait for open beta testing.

i hope so too, hopefully next testing phase.
