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

I think I’ve used it in a context that is valid…you keep making very CRAZY comparison and being disingenuous to the back and forth we have been having. I changed it to good faith though because it seems less snarky to me.

I can already see the posts a year from now from WT Infantry mains, complaining that a ‘Vark just torched their entire spawn with Napalm for half the matches duration.

Maining infantry in a game with 3rd person mouse controlled tanks and jets is not a smart move tbh

Running a Javelin Hell Divers two style would be SICK with a squad reload! Carl Gustave with Hell Divers two game play in War Thunder…Honestly WHO would not like this…LAME people that’s who!

Imagine if they did WT/HD2 collab like Atomic Thunder

Honestly they could get a Big Boost in players if the Infantry were added with HD type functionality! Would be AMAZING!

Imagine if stock grind would start with a single crewmember now, including for aviation and navy)

Naval starter bote: Here’s a rowboat and a rifle, use it wisely and return swiftly, you only have 50 rounds of ammo and there’s a small leak.

I don’t know. Depends on the maps and kit they get access to. Games like BF demonstrate infantry still has a place when 3rd person AFV / CAS is about.

Infantry is always going to be absolute hell to deal with in urban / CQB maps for tankers.

Also depends how they handle infantry damage models. Are we gonna be telling grunts to hold this DM53 and hear over coms “You’ve got a hole in your left thigh!”, or are they going to get domed by singular MG rounds as you’d expect.

That definition is the opposite of my responses.

I’m not pretending to know nothing. I am stating with Gaijins history I am EXTREMELY doubtful infantry will be coming to war thunder permanently.

If you a looking for a better term for my responses look up skeptical.

I think they did the damage model of infantry pretty well during the mobile infantry event a couple years ago.
from what little I can remember from what little I played, you would take a single round to the arm or leg and be considered “ded”

Or just a paddle XD

M1911 with 3 rounds in the magazine and 1 in the chamber

Starter bote: here’s a leaky rowboat and a single paddle, return swiftly, or don’t, which ever works, we have 5 more recruits lined up and 10 more botes.

Starter tonk: here’s a rusty bicycle and a knife. try not to die.

starter plane: here’s your F-35B armed to the teeth with nothing but the most modern weaponry

(I wonder where all the budget went…)

There’s not a single change infantry is actually getting added to war thunder.
