Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

No clue… Haven’t seen anything about it TBH.

The team are currently focused on reports relating to the major update and any immediate issues of concern.

Is this a final decision or will this be changed when / if the security concerns can be fixed?

Also what about files already uploaded here, do I have to change images used in suggestions and other previous discussions?

It will depend on the outcome. Right now its not possible to say. Existing files are ok.

guys, we still have jpg…

@Smin1080p_WT crazy question: Do you know if parts of War Thunder are going to be rewritten in Rust anytime soon? The performance boost would be amazing.

(PNG? In 2026?!)

If these are being acted on now, is there a possibility to receive a follow up on the targeting report of the GCS-1, which is currently unable to lock on to many of the smaller ships it was meant to be used against?

https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/lljidZUYgh8z

In the datamines it seems it got a 60m size gate, which seems to match in-game testing done on the dev and now live server. However nothing like it exists in reality, and it is known to have achieved good hit rates against a far smaller (~4m) target vessel.
The targeting should only be done through the necessary IR contrast, not a hard limit on target size.

About "ground targeting concern"

If this is an intentional issue, then I think it is probably reasonable to assume Gaijin wanted to prevent ground targeting. However I don’t think this is necessary, as the system still has it’s limitations here .

  • Compared to the sea surface, which gives a flat 8-30°C background, the ground is more uneven and on hot maps exceeds the temperatures of the sea around Japan that GCS-1 is intended to be used in. This means that ground targets, depending on the map, could be more difficult for the seeker to pick up.
  • Since it has no controlled lock on, it can be difficult to select targets. It might go for a completely different player than intended because they were picked up first, or even another heat source that would be present on the map.

If this is still considered to be too powerful, Gaijin also have the ability to adjust GRB BR of the carriers, only allow the weapon in air battles if necessary, and even adjust BR of the weapon individually with custom BRs if it’s still a concern in Nuclear Escalation. I don’t see a need to artificially limit the capability when all of these balancing tools exist instead.

Hi Smin a question about this Update.

Since it dropped I wondered how come the Audace sits on it’s own branch line all alone?

Is it on purpose or it was a mistake from the Devs?

But what is the reason png files are no longer accepted

About when can i expect the start of the next DEV season in december?

On purpose, I suppose they did not want to return to destroyers after Attilio and Etna, both are light light cruisers.

Bunch of post war Italian ships are ready to fill that line

Thats quite bad. Especially for summary topics, such as mine with ammo, with drawings and photos. :c

My guess is either the end of the last week of november or the first week of december for the blogs to start.

The F-15JSI would only be a top tier counterpart if they give it MRML, which while not impossible is absolutely not a given.

Yeah, only direct mention of increased missile load comes from Boeing in 2022. Aside from that Japanese sources say 8 MRMs, which could simply mean the use of AIM-120D on the existing LAU-128 wing rails in service rather than a new technical capability (considering we do know it’s planned to use American missiles with it).

My guess would be in about 2 weeks, then 3 weeks of DEV time (including dev server) and update on the 22nd.

But that’s just my guess
