What is wrong with the PzH2000 reload time guys? It was clearly as day that it has at least 4.0s reload, 6.9s in dev server was fine for me but 13.0s in official??? Gaijin please be honest, are you taking money from China or something?

No, they’re taking money from Japan to make the Type 99 look good. ;)

In all sincerity it’s likely just a mistake.

I believe in the flight manual it says that the inner pylons can mount the AGM-130 but not use them. It’s for transport or something, but I’ll need to take a proper look at it again.

Why is the radar of the Typhoon still so bad

Could be worse, the new Microsoft Flight Sim 2024 has Bisons stampeding Zurich Air Port in Switzerland, I’ve heard…

Cool updates, though its a little disapoiting to see another rank V 155mm HE-slinger with faster (manual) reload than any of the IS-tanks with the 122 D-25T

That would be a fair reason to not include them on the inner pylons if that’s the case then.

are you sure its an upgrade if you only need 26 rounds

The namer 30 supposed to be one of the most protected ivf in the game yet it can die to a 2.0 SU-76M with and heat shell that has less than a kilo of tnt equivalent


same thing for HE but you can shoot everywhere on the right cheek and kill the whole crew no mater what

all because the commander hatch is 4 mm thick

very disappointing and it still doesnt have the armor its supposed to have

The wiki got better, and the profile page will get better. How is the profile useless?

Just wait a bit and both be better.

It isn’t deleted, and it’s still available at old-wiki.warthunder.com.

IMO, the Typhoon and Rafale should have been added alongside a 4.5 for each nation, and/or moved to 15.0 with some of the 4+ being moved to 14.0-14.3 and the F15E/I going to 14.7.

Game needs decompression, still. An F-14B/J8/AV8 B+/SU27S shouldn’t be seeing a Typhoon.

It’s not fun being significantly less capable.

They simplified them both ie. Dumbed them down and made them more social media like.
How in anyone’s world can that be better?

Apart from the fact that the most used information (just read the community reactions) is not included in the wiki anymore, but might come later “and you can just use the old version”. The actual text on the wiki is now only about a quarter of the screen width, and most of it is hidden by a “see more” link you have to click on before you can read the text. The rest is blank space and fluff.
I’m pretty sure you’d fail your design exam if you handed in something like that.

The player profile is even worse. The design is seemingly made for a mobile phone and again, the information you’re interested in is either hidden or gone.
The profile has two uses: checking your own or others’ progress/skills in the game. Your favorite vehicle or mode is infinitely unimportant and unusable. You want the stats for what you’re playing atm.

They didn’t simplify either of them. The profile card is just a bit unfinished, and it could’ve been done better in some ways. The new wiki is better, but information still needs to be transferred over from the old one.

I think that depends on monitor resolution, but I agree that it needs to be a bit wider. The new UI is also so much better when using a mobile device.

That’s just an opinion. And why can’t a profile do both? It can show all the important statistics, while also allowing a player to highlight vehicles they enjoy, and other achievements they have.

Before if you wanted to check your own KD or someone elses you literally needed 2 clicks for it. Now you have to open the profile, click onto Statistics, then click leaderboard right lower corner, then change it to what gamemode you want and then you can see the KD.
