Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

Since the bug reporting forums just… dont work. ima add things here.

as a singular excample of a single very ignored plane even tho it was featured in the promotional material for the last update.

the jas 39E still

has incorrect flare count in pre flight menu Community Bug Reporting System
Displays showing the wrong artificial horizon. literaly everywhere. Community Bug Reporting System
belly pylons are still the wrong kind and uses weird rails on drop pylons for some reason.
Landing gear still clips through the side Community Bug Reporting System
and the instructor is broken and limiting the aircraft even more than some planes that wingrip at slightly higher performance Community Bug Reporting System (fixed but poorly communicated)

all issues gaijin has just not seen or ignored or not fixed

Note that the clipping issue was accepted 6 months ago but nothing has been done. yet they featured it in marketing of this update (even tho it had zero updates done to it) and avoided any angle that would show it

And this is just ONE SINGLE PLANE and issues that mostly have been here since its introduction

Don’t forget it being absent the spherical RWR 😵‍💫

Oh yeah. forgot its RWR and MAWS isnt spherical in game. there is so much wrong with this plane istg

And again. this is a single plane. there are so many more issues that they refuse to focus on with so many other vehicles and mechanics. and instead of older upates where they add many more tech tree vehicles than premiums they add almost a 50/50

(this only goes up to last year. istg its worse this year)

EDIT ONLY FOR THE LATEST UPDATE. from my drunken count of this update 19 tech tree vehicles 5 premiums. not bad. but a LOT of the tech tree ones were copy paste so its not that impressive. Still on par or a tiny bit better than the last years average

To add. i do like many of the smaller changes, ilove that they are testing variable BRs as thats something ive been wanting for a long time for example

but yeah. decent ammount of smaller quality of life changes. cant wait for the variable br stuff to apply to more planes.

This major update had many significant QoL changes and a multitude of fixes, improvements and changes from player reports: War Thunder "Eagle's Shadow" - Changelog

Appreciate you may not have seen the spesific ones that matter most to you personally and the vehicle you are interested in, but that doesn’t mean they didn’t occur at all in the first place.

Constructive criticism is always welcome, spamming a topic, not so much.

Feedback on the major update is welcome in the official feedback topic for the changelog: War Thunder "Eagle's Shadow" - Changelog

hey Smin, good evening, i’d like to tell you about this tiny tiny problem regarding the “thunder beast” skin for the T34-57 as it cannot be exchanged for warbond tickets unlike the 3 grand finale golden skin from the soon ago twitch drops if you have them duplicate, here’s the link as the forum doesn’t let images post for now

I have seen many quite good fixes. but so many easily fixed ones are ignored or acknowledged and left unfixed. i sent 3 messages with IMO constructive criticism (1 as a reply to someone else) and a positive one. hardly spamming. And my SINGULAR criticism of the jas 39-5 which im overall positive about that was deleted was not spamming.

And sure. feedback is funneled to a single place which can be seen as good if most of the genuine feedback wasnt entirely ignored.

I only write feedback here cause here staff actually sees it even if its only seen to be deleted. in other threads its ignored entirely

and like. i know you and the rest of the CMs and GMs have basically zero input on the game itself but where else can i put it where my criticism and feedback is actually seen.

Looks like all they did was copy-paste the already bug reported AMRAAM-ER stats for the ESSM Block 2 @Smin1080p_WT

Hey. It would be best to contact support about this. We cannot exchange it here. Perhaps it was a technical issue.

As one of the people who directly goes through the major changelogs, dev server sections and all other sections of the forum to collect feedback for the majors and everything else, that’s just not the case. For example we’ve already been through the entire changelog topic as of today, to pass the devs everything of importance for tomorrow.

I appreciate not everything may come as wished, or not every suggestion may make it, but everything is seen.

Speaking of bug fixes it’s been a few months since the devs added the NOMADS and then proceeded to stop caring. Any chance they’ll finally add the RCWS gun sight so the thermals and laser rangefinder can finally be used?

So. 6 months for an ACKNOWLEDGED very simple clipping issue is not something to criticise?

8 months for a simple UI issue that was fixed in one update and broken the next.

and 8 months (over a year since plane was added) for an in cockpit ui issue.

Genuine question but where am i ment to turn for this? only 1 of them has been accepted and still nothing has been done for 6 months since it was accepted

Yes a lot of bug reports are fixed. its great. but it takes MONTHS for very very easily fixed things to get fixed. That is not sustainable. Im sorry but that is the truth, if you cant keep on top of things that have been an issue for over a year but use said vehicles in promotions there is an issue

Im not sure where it was said that nobody can be critical. In fact, I said the opposite:

I cant find were clusters are did they get cancelled or something guys

All there:

Very well. i will put my same criticsim in the update post and see. Ive done it many times. nothing have happened. I do appreciate the work you guys do. its a very volatile forum and the issues are not your fault, imo all the issues is with how the snail does it

i do appreciate that you have been more reasonable than other moderators where many of my light criticisms have been deleted.

(also to add, my criticism mostly focuses on one vehicle to show the depth of the issues. i could add more but it would dilute it by adding newer vehicles with issues that may be more game engine deep (even tho game engine issues are a whole other can of worms of why a vehicle shouldnt have been added))

I thought it was all vehicles NVM

Worth mentioning that just because it isn’t replied to, doesn’t mean it isn’t seen. You’ll see Smin a lot in this thread because a lot of people @ him in here.

There’s quite a few clusters that are missing so hopefully we see more in the future
