Maybe bug in awarding battle awards? (Actually no bug. Turns out I am just stupid.)

Question…

This is the definition of “Thunderer” award:

This is the score board of a game:

… a game in which I did NOT get the “Thunderer” award and I do not know why.

The “can’t be less than 18” condition is fulfilled because 10 ground units in RB (x2) count as 20

Am I overlooking something?

Answer:

Missing awards / rewards happen quite often.

Positive:

  • Gaijin support is quite friendly (you need to create support ticket) and will grant you the missing 5.000 SL.

Negative:

  • They will ask you to create a bug report
  • They will not create any progress in special tasks; they are not able to do this and you will have to wait 2-3 working days for their first reply.
  • It might take some time (~2 weeks) before the issue is solved.

An example:

I was forced to create this bug report. And i had actually the same issue 3 times within a few weeks (“Mission decider”, also 5.000 SL) - i simply refuse to invest time in such actions.

Have a good one!

Off-topic regarding SM 92:
  1. It looks like you got a cooling leak from aaa and you continued groundpounding - and died later because u cooked both engines. In case of any oil/water leaks you have to abort mission, plane is extremely sensitive.
  2. You need MEC for using the full potential of the SM 92. You can fly the SM 92 without overheating with both rads at 50% and by adjusting prop pitch to 75/80/85% on Hot/medium/cold maps - and use WEP the whole match.
  3. Even as this map is tempting to ground pound: SM 92 is an excellent high alt and BnZ fighter - and able to beat most fighters in a turn fight.
  4. Seeing this match as a whole you might have won the match if you would have sideclimbed at the start. Their last 3 fighters (XP-50, P-38 and P-38) are not only worse turners - they were also flown by average US pilots; you had a clear experience advantage.

The answer is simple:
Red player had 11 ground kills.

Pardon, which red player do you see having 11 ground kills?

The guy who had six on your picture. Can’t spell him here.

… that means the values I am seeing are the snapshots from when I left the match, not the final values?

That… makes a lot of sense…

You linked a replay ^^

I never claimed that I was particularly bright…
