You know what, it’s a VR game but plays so much better on flatscreen. Decided to get my HOTAS set up and it feels so much better than in VR. Will try VR + HOTAS next to see if that’s an improvement.
And yes for anyone that will be playing it in flatscreen mode and tabs out from the game this issue is now present across both WT and Aces. Game freezing and completely unresponsive when alt-tabbing. How they managed this I have no idea.
The flight model is butchered and the whole reason it’s using R-60Ms is because on launch R-73s were unbalanced for the game. Now there are AIM-9Ms and a plethora of aircraft that are more than a match for it. Why not revise its weaponry and flight performance?
It’s such a weird loadout to begin with, it rarely used R-60Ms in Soviet service. The R-73s were one of its trademarks.
Ah-64A peten should get the µDIRCM irl soon.
Instead of MiG-29 K/KR, we get upgraded Yak-141 huh. Wonder if they take away the R-27Es
this topic has been beaten dead so often that I really dont understand why people still argue about this
if Gaijin changed their mind about this then some MiG-29s like the German one would lose all reason to exist in the game
they will never change the IR missile choice for them, they never planned to and they’re now in a position where they dont see a reason to do so at all at no point in the future
there have been many proposals for how to go around this, getting rid of R-27ER on the early ones etc but that doesn’t matter because theres neither intent nor reasonable pressure to change this
am I seeing the perfect opertunity for a shameless plug?
Maybe the fact there are far better planes at same BR? I mean this is pure compression but there is no denying the F15A is far superior than the fulcrum in every way possible, kinetic, electronics, missiles, everything.
And the crowd goes… boo.
The WW1 is fun except for the AI not being bound to the laws of physics and pretty much noclip around in fights. (Especially when they are flying the SPAD.)
The WW2 feels awful again due to the AI being super human. And it’s not like you can just fight other players since there just aren’t any players. In 3 hours I’ve seen 3 people. Also the loadout options are extremely limited and have to be grinded through kills which are impossible for some.
This should have just been an update for WT not a standalone game.
To the surprise of absolutely, well, noone.
Need to milk war thunder more it seems, prepare for more handheld premiums lol
It feels like it’s got the same level of commitment as air sim. Absolutely none.
They could turn it around but I doubt it. My hopes now is for them to just salvage the WW1 planes and put them into WT.
They could just ditch air sim at this point.
By the state of it they ditched it a long time ago.
They’re gonna, just like they did with Active Matter.
Arc Raiders did it better so they just threw a hissy fit and gave us “infantry”.
I meant get rid of it. It’s pure torture to get someone to play it. And for sim I was really expecting something more mission focused like that anti-SPAA game or some sort of CAS + escort mission. Sucks RN.
Yeah, I always found odd that they went on to make a separate, paid game out of this.
I hope this move won’t have a significantly negative impact on War Thunder’s development…
And then they wonder why tf IL-2 is still so damn alive ( cuz it’s just better)
You have to grind in a game you paid for XD
So war thunder’s copy of war thunder is doing badly than the slightly better version of War Thunder lol
Yep, grinding for camos would be fine but they decided that you have to unlock them through the 3 daily challenges which give you either a camo or one of the hundreds of decals. So chances of getting what you want is slim to none since you can’t just go for what you want.
Isn’t the best plane in the game also behind a paywall?
F4u-4 seems to be a late war model corsair while being stuck behind a dlc…
