Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

Game Discussion General Discussion

At this point, i would like an actual effort from the matchmaker to put me in my own BR, the majority of my matches are just uptiers and the BR difference for aviation past 12.0-ish is so volatile with the types of missiles available with greatly improved stats

Does not help that for some reason a large amount of matches are flat maps, giving you no protection to avoid missiles unless your chaff actually decides to work for once (after you’ve gone trough the pain of researching it that is)

like i’d be willing to wait an extra minute or two if i can actually fight planes that are my BR or 0.3BRs difference
It just seems weird that the majority sometimes tend to be uptiers since everyone seems to getting uptiered at most BRs at this rank, if the 11.0s are constantly fighting 12.0s but the 12.0s are constantly fighting 13.0s, it just makes me question if the matchmaker even bothers with putting you in the same BR or just throws you into the first option it gets

@Smin1080p_WT Any news on Radar fix? Game is unplayble right now

go play mechanical radar like eurofighter one or gripen C. Under like 30 km radars don’t pick up any target

I’ll be GEing it because I’ll be busy Skiing for 70% of the grind period, but it certainly looks interesting, especially as a means to spawn the newly buffed AH Mk2.

I just wish we could change the wheels/rims, they’re just so ugly 😭

531

@Smin1080p_WT hello, when can we expect new skin crate to hit the market?

532

I was kind of dreading it but it seems like a pretty easy grind so far, 4 games and 12k score into the first mark for the boxer.

Ash River and Arctic maps have been removed from rotation for bugfixing purposes:
Update 2.53.0.19 - Updates - Game - War Thunder

Am i the only one that wants the next update to not include anything vehicle wise, and just focus on the massive quality of life issues that war thunder has at the moment. An over haul of BR compression, bugs and desync and a much needed update to matchmaking is so needed.

535

My quality of life would greatly increase if Gaijin would just add the damn TOW HMMWV and LAV-25, maybe some jeeps as well.

Na man imagine if you could use those vehicles, on a fixed matchmaking system against people with similar ping and no desync bs and potential cheaters, with missiles that actually work instead of the inconsistent shenanigens that go on with missiles rn.

While it sounds like a great thing, are we really expecting that to happen? Hell, it’s more reasonable to ask for TOW HMMWV than a functional game with the way things are going.

538

What was the bugs for these maps? Arctic was a fairly new addition, and Ash River was updated not long ago, wasnt it?

539

No idea. It might be multiple bugs, or overlapping ones, since it/they were apparently serious enough to warrant removing them from gameplay.

I dont know who thought the BMPT was a good idea at 10.3 but it wasnt

Fr, it’s pretty broken. Especially when you can swap between the premium and the tree one which has nearly the same capabilities.

I called the bmpt was about to make the PUMA on launch look pretty balanced.

Nah this is a great change just needs some fine tweaking having a damaged/destroyed jet able to just vomit off 10 missiles as it spirals down was and is terrible for gameplay
