Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

i love customer protection

Not for 5 years now, since 31st January 2020.

America.

Finnish Hawks would more than likely be skipped as MK.51A carries 9M’s with no countermeasures and as gaijin have stated they want unique options and the original MK.51 bought from the Swiss would be too similar to the Swiss model to add. MK.66 would also follow the trend of being to close to British models as we’ve seen with the F18 for Finland. Gaijin can’t add Finnish Hawks or Gnats.

We’ll be bringing even more in-game benefits for Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass members regularly. Starting in April 2025, players will get access to in-game benefits for the following titles:

Cool

This interests me

That’s either gonna be extremely lame or extremely interesting.
Probably not going be as massive as the benefit they offer for League of Legends and Valorant

Spoiler

Gotta wash my mouth now, disgusting game names came out of it

F-14D coming next update. The supposed leak is really just an inside guy teasing it coming next update!

What leak?

Aces of Thunder has released a new gameplay trailer:

Some new details have been showcased.

Aircraft carriers and ships are now the high-detail kind, instead of the older low-poly models seen in the previous trailer


Comparison Images


It seems that the WW1 aircraft and their missions scenarios will be separate from the techtrees of aircraft from WW2 and beyond

Much of the WW2 singleplayer campaign looks to be based in the Single Missions available currently in WT


Though it 's possible that there are missions scenarios unique to Aces which were simply not shown in this short trailer.

I noted above that the aircraft carriers and ships were the more modern type; if ( some unknown portion of ) the singleplayer missions in Aces are simply the existing ones from WT upgraded to use player-modelled high detail vehicles as AI, similar to the upgrades we saw of the Pacific Campaign missions after new aircraft carriers were added at the end of 2022 ( incl. the IJN Shokaku seen in the new trailer ).
Then it might be possible that those same upgrades might be applied to those same single missions here in WT.

Apparently the F-14D Flight Manuel was leaked recently while being marked Export restricted.

That sounds more like regular WT forum activity than like an update related leak

Everything but a release date. Looking forward to it still.

Hopefully we do see some improvements to the single-player missions come to War Thunder. They are in a dreadful state right now.

I’d prefer if they just dropped the single-player missions idea (keep the ones that already are in the game tho) and work more on co-op modes and missions

I think some single-player missions and some co-op missions would be nice to see. Or we could just get co-op missions but have the option to either fly with other players or AI.

Btw another bug, the OF 3.7 RAM when going commander view the tank disappears

Clearly that’s some experimental stealth. Couldn’t be a game bug. /s

Just annoying to see how buggy the game is now, normally I’m not the one who look for bugs but with this new update I can’t help it.
