There’s no other game as War Thunder. That’s basically the main reason. It’s hard to just leave it after investing like 8k hours and a significant amount of money.
And i can’t say that i don’t like it. I’ve learned my own ways to make this game somewhat fun and enjoyable. But it’s something a new player just can’t do.
I just can’t recommend this game to someone new without enormous amount of time or money. This game has vastly changed since the time i got into it. And this change was not in a good direction.
i took a month long break and I enjoy it more now.
Alright, maybe not when I flew the sakeen, I hate that horrible thing.
I have to applaud the restraint on this fake leak list. A lot of them just go wild, this one is almost too conservative.
Almost every major update at this point has at least one big, flashy vehicle that pushes the meta in some way, but this list doesn’t have one. It’s like whoever wrote the list deliberately was trying to avoid it.
I would make a fake leak list of my own or a “predictions” list but at this point I’d just be repeating things that I’ve speculated before. But I think it’s safe to say that the next major update will include a big new mechanic or vehicle type (one or both) and 1-2 new top tier vehicles for each mode.
It’s worth pointing out that we’ll likely be able to figure out the theme of the next update before any real leaks once we get the next Community Disclosures post sometime in August.

The Gripen E probably would depending on what they did and did not model
I’m on the fence too, it’s just seems too real to be a fake list most just add one or two meme/wishlist vehicles but this, this feels like a gaijin update to me
you can easily see that that list is fake
just look at the ammount of light vehicles/ IFVs
gaijin would never
Who says we can’t have a IFV themed update, think we had air, we had naval so what’s next IFV’s ?
Given it has a British vehicle for Israel I would say its likely fake lol.
FV432 30mm RCWS was to upgrade British FV432 fleet and was partially done (the armour upgrade IIRC came from this) and was part of the mk3 bulldog program afaik with the only part not taken being the 30mm/spike combo for the RCWS as it got downgraded to a machinegun. Its odd to be in the Israeli area.
Didn’t spot that but yeah but yeah idk since it’s a good one
When should we start seeing blogs for the next major actually? Around the middle of August right?
Mid to late august so about a month

Smin recently said we should expect the next Community post this month too, probably with a similar timeframe. These are basically devblogs by another name at this point
Well not really devblog but more of a here’s the plan and what our thoughts are
They did reveal things like Fuel dumping and Falklands map (despite both being a major let down), as well as give a riddle for the major additions coming (all the battleships)

yeah we all forgot the read the fine print on that
that said that only the F-111 will get it
There’s too many side grades, for all gaijin’s faults generally they not to add to many similar things at once, unless they’re line up padding that is,
e.g. FV432 30 is literally the same turret and vibe as the Namer 30, Leo 1A6 VT-2 is a slightly more armoured 1A1A1 L/44, AMX-10PAC is a mars 15 AMX-10P hybrid, etc
Yeah… that has to be one of the most stupid decisions they’ve ever made
like it cant be that hard to add the flames to the other aircraft
Not even that much. Realistically speaking, that is a novelty, but not really the main functionality.
Sure, only add the flames to the F-111s to begin with, but why not add fuel dumping to everything else (and I mean every single other aircraft in game that had it) and then just add the aesthetics of the fuel dump mechanic over the following major updates piece-meal like they;ve done for fuel tanks.
It would have been an incredibly useful mechanic in aircraft like the Harriers (and basically anything else that does carrier landings at a bare minimum)
it would also enable you to take more fuel
and if you have to dogfight you can just dump some of it to get lighter
