Some good stuff UI wise & bug fixes, plus the P-16 is great and player made.
However, seeing again more map neutering like Eastern Europe (and no, just because the change is now only showed down the throat of defenseless low BR players doesn’t mean it is acceptable there either) makes me no longer want to play the little tank games I’ve played.
The thing that broke the camel’s back and made me just turn off the game after updating it, without even playing a single game is something very minute, but is another indication that this game is losing the last bit of its adoring soul of what started it and what made it grow. The minute thing was seeing the Dutch Sea Fury suddenly in the full French Tech Tree line, instead of the just recently established and proper Benelux sub tech tree line. Like, wtf is the need for nation tech trees then? If even the annoying, though acceptable, compromise of having sub-tech-trees as separate lines in a nation is no longer observed, you can just stop with nations completely! There was no need to push the Dutch Sea Fury in that line. There are enough planes in that line already, while the Benelux line still needs a ton of planes.

What does the asterisk and clock mean? Does it mean that its still coming but not yet implemented? As it doesnt currently appear to be. @Stona_WT
Was there graphical “improvements”?
I went from 210 fps on average to max 75 since that update released, cockpits are all “blacked out” (refer to screenshot below) and my game started to freeze/crash every 15-20 minutes.
yea they changed some stuff , my game used to run smooth 60 fps without the old gpu thingy and now can’t go past 30 not only that with the old gpu support thing makes the tanks low poly asf for some reason (wasn’t like this before btw)
I have the same issue i was running smoothly 160 fps now its like 90 fps and all the cockpits are blacked out i also noticed a problem with tank battles as well it shows to be low poly or something! I have an I7 13700HX and didnt had any issues before! My settings are maxed out!
my bad i guess, i stand corrected.
it just… compared to what i’ve seen on the internet of the jf17 cockpit, mainly from dcs, it feels like most of the reflector glass is like hidden away behind MCP, and knowing already that stuff like a10 literally is like miles off, i thought for sure it was a bad placement, but i guess its just a weird feeling im getting.
War Thunder doesn’t like angling down the head [neither does DCS for that matter].
It’s easier in WT air sim with HOTAS where you can bring up your head then angle down a bit with controls, something I can’t do in DCS cause it doesn’t change the zero position.
i use trackir so its literally impossible to manually move my camera, unless i do it in opentrack, and you know, i also kinda find it quite useless since you cannot really adjust your hud in the game
but anyway, i found something even funnier about this update!
F-16A (Belgium) Received STOCK JDAMS, and on the test drive, you cannot even drop them!
but like seriously, are we supposed to get a camera for jdams to guide them, but code fucks up? or did someone by mistake applied the JDAM to A and AM at the same time?
Another major update and sounds are rubbish once again. Do the community a favor and reassign whoever your sound engineers are to another project or department.
