Any idea why they didn’t fix the MIM-72E/G when they updated the smoke trails?
Which isn’t really an issue with this game, also I noted if the game recommends anything more than ULQ, which means at least “low” in which case you’d be able to tweak the settings for the lows to come higher and what not.
144hz is NOT all that. I promise you it’s not that good
If you can get 144FPS on ULQ and 60 on low then I hate to say it but your hardware MAY need to be checked
Eh there’s not a massive difference between 60 and 144hz, and I promise you that there’s not a tactical advantage or anything in my case. I’m just as trash as I was when I was playing 20 fps lmao
Yeah, it’s so much better now! Your pc sounds pretty good, my new laptop has a 4060 and a I7 13something
So nice to finally being able to play without being jelous of a potato XD
That’s how I feel! Only $1400 and I was able to play max settings

I’ve tried it and yes it is.
If I can’t hit 144 FPS I’ll try to hit as many frames as possible.
100 is still better than 60…
There’s a massive difference.
Even just scrolling on your phone something like 120Hz feels much better than 60Hz and it’s actually insane how much of a difference there is.
If you perform as well with 20 FPS and with 144+ FPS and Hz I’m afraid to say but you’re the bottleneck here, which is fine but don’t run around telling people higher refresh rates are useless.
No sorry, Game Masters only handle in-game chat and name bans. We have no insight into development and no contact with the DEV’s. If there is a report on an issue you can message one of the Technical Moderators to ask about it’s status.
Info on how to contact the Technical Moderators
You can find all the teams and the areas they handle listed here: (Who is who and Reporting Procedure). If you don’t get an answer within a few days you can add more moderators from the list to the original message instead of sending a new message (that way you preserve the date of the message and it doesn’t look like a new request), adding one of the moderators to the message every 2-3 days or so until you get an answer.
Please do not to add the seniors until you have tried all other regular moderators, the Seniors likely won’t answer unless they are added and pinged by the regular moderators but if you’ve added all the regular moderators with no answer then you can add the seniors.
Otherwise if it’s a more general question you can ask one of the Community Managers if they have any insight/answers to give.

I play on it and no, no it isn’t
yes clearly, but at that point it can be seen as exploiting ULQ which is the issue we’re trying to avoid
The difference is not worth it, I use 60hz and the 720p screen to get as much battery life out of it as possible.
I’m not saying they’re useless, just if you have 60 at low settings then you shouldn’t be on ULQ, and yes I know I suck :)
There is, it’s quite the big difference actually (at least in a majority of cases). But some games benefit from it more or less than others, usually depending on the need to react quickly and have pinpoint aim or not. War Thunder is some weird middle ground as being able to aim weakspots in tanks fast and accurately can absolutely help in some situations but in others it wont matter at all. in Air it will mater way less as there are very few situations where fast reactions and pinpoint aim matters (your not aiming for the pilot, you’re aiming to hope to hit the enemy plane at all)
Well sure, player skill will also play a role of course, but i think it would be foolish to say that there is little to no benefit as even worst case scenario you still get some benefit and best case it can make a rather large difference.

I use it and yes, get your eyes checked.
I’m just trying to get better experience.
Yes it is.
Sucking is fine but having more than 60 frames is a definite advantage, especially with higher refresh rates.
Just a dumb little question i just have to ask (i’ve seen it happen to may times to count and it doesn’t hurt to double check). Have you activated the higher refresh rate for the screen when you got it? all the 144+ Hrz screens come with a 60Hrz default setting and need to be manually changed to the higher refresh rate options.

It’s entirely possible my eyes are too shot to notice the difference
You clearly haven’t played with French 7.5mms XD, if you don’t kill the pilot you don’t kill the plane
I did, broken cornea and crazy astigmatism XD
I’m guessing you aren’t playing on 720p then are you, nor are you playing on a potato, especially since you play at 144 fps
Not on a phone
There isn’t really a noticeable situation in which having 144 will save you
Yes and I use a compatible HDMI cable :)

I’ve messaged a few technical moderators, just a case of hearing back from them
Yeah, all the moderators teams are volunteers with regular jobs/school/families/hobbies/etc so not all of us are able to respond every day, the teams are international so there are time zones to think about as well. Which is also why the general tip is to just keep adding moderators to the same original message (don’t spam though, one every 2-3 days is enough) as eventually one of them will log on and respond :)

thanks, it’s annoying because whoever updated the code for the new smoke trails could have fixed the MIM-72 issue then and there, but they instead decided to just ignore fixing it.
I don’t mean to go on and on, I just feel that devs as a whole should be less dismissive, ya know?
I don’t think that is how it works. I’m just guessing based on logic here but i would think they have different dev teams focused on different areas of the game and the team that works with generalised effects aren’t going to be the same team that work on specific vehicle/munition settings.
While i understand the feeling i don’t think this is the case, more likely a case of having more important tasks prioritised. So not dismissive but rather to much on their plate already (and again, just guessing here as i have no actual insight).
It’s been a year and all they need to do is change the one line of code:
(Note that the MIM-72E code was copied from the MIM-72C without adjusting the smoke trail)
And you can see that the change should be on line 1495
That’s my findings anyway
Sorry to hear that but it might affect you. 144 vs 60Hz is huge for me and probably for many more people.
I upgraded but a few months ago I was turning down settings left, right and center just to get stable 144 FPS.
Just tried to show how it’s very noticeable even for the most basic actions, let alone in fast paced games.
It will definitely provide you with an edge that surely can be the difference between living and dying.
are there any plans for proper Chinese cockpits? as the helis still only have placeholder cockpits and the jets are dumbed down with everything after the j8f having the same hud
Yeah I’ve been suspecting whether or not its imparing me too much, I’ve never actually been able to tell a difference in FPS over about 80, I’ve always suspected thats just because there’s not really a difference though
I upgraded 8 months ago ish, best decision ever (thanks for reminding me to clean my pc), went from 720p 25 fps ulq to 1080p 144fps max settings (minus ray tracing, I have a 3050 lol), significant increase, but I found that 25 - 30 fps is completely playable personally, maybe I was enjoying it because from 2018 - 2021 I was playing this game at 10 - 15 fps lol
Just saying I didn’t notice a difference, not trying to be rude but I might be coming across a bit harsh, sorry man :)
Ehh not in my case (well, 0 skill with a 1.25 high refresh rate multiplier is still 0 lol)
