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

Here we go again… I’ll just copy-paste my response every time this is said:


They stated that the infantry developer team is completely new and separate from the rest of the game, so it’s not mutually exclusive.

They earn millions and millions every year, most of the money goes straight int their pockets… do you think they don’t put more money and manpower into the game because of infantry, and that it would make any difference…?

There are bug reports that have been ignored for 5 years now, some even more, long before they could have started working on infantry.

Believe me, infantry or a lack of budget isn’t the reason why they aren’t doing better with the main game…

What I love about my birthday being today is that I always get to enjoy war thunder’s April fools events the day after, can’t wait to see what gaijin cooked up this year! What do yall think gaijin’s gonna do this year, haven’t seen too many guesses

For april’s fools they’re gonna fix every bug and issue of the game, balance everything and decompress, and then they’ll revert everything the next day

I cant even laugh at this anymore because this is far too realistic of a scenario

Or remembering the CDK exists. (Hasn’t been updated since November 2024 and is pretty much unusable)

Yes. But imagine that, but instead it’s SAMs with missiles with equivalent performance to the Buk-M3’s missiles from the 70s (at least, that’s the era I think it was in the first SEAD event?) or later.

Of course, the first SEAD event was centred around dumb bombs and rockets. The next could feature ARM missiles like HARM, Kh-31P, etc.

Jsut recycle the 2021-22 events. They were fun

allows for top tier CAS or jets in general to have a chance, since the bmpt update they gave everyone a free spaa so its made just flying any sort of air-vehicle, helicopter, drone, recon drone, cas, fighters, is a death sentence so ARMs, ECM and other SEAD/DEAD weaponry and electronics would aid a lot with aircraft survivability and it would help a lot in ARB and ASB, as a lot of top tiers like gripen e and typhoon rely on ECM and jamming to survive

Im afraid that the addition of arm will make ground revert back to pre-multi vehicle aa, where cas will truly dominate with no equivalent threat from ground, not that currently ground have truly equivalent (current ldircm implementation, no radar return on heli rotor, no iir, and no esa for top tier ground radar(except pantsir for some reason))

Skill issue, bomb should’ve been directly on top of the SPAA. Even 1mm next to it is complete skill issue on your part. /j

That is indeed my fear also.

I understand that ECM would help ARB and ASB a lot, and hence I’m not really opposed to ECM being added.

But SEAD/DEAD and ARM? Right back to “GRB is just ARB with player-controlled targets”

not so big problem, sead missiles will take a position, and only be able to attack SPAAs with radar on, in other condition, they are just useless payloads.
for example, when you use a F-16, you will exchange 3 AGM-65s for a AGM-88.
also, when the spaa just respawn, they can still fire at you before you fire SEAD back, and they can still shoot your SEAD missile down like currently in game. I don’t think they can be so useful in current game situation.

So bored,
when does the April Fools news usually drop?

Most likely sometime within the next 6 hours or so. Last year the news dropped at 5:03pm BST so most likely around then.
