Nuclear Thunder!

We all play WT, we are used to the pain and suffering.

Nor when the Tu-95M was in service either, it’s very odd to have chosen the very first Tu-95 model, an aircraft that actually fits well in the tech tree, and then pick the penultimate B-52 model that doesn’t. Should have been the Tu-95MS which is much more comparable to the B-52H!

Feels very underwhelming. Get insta-pinged and have S-300s and Buks coming down range right off the bat, and then have to deal with the magical “I can track you no matter what” OSAs, all of which is guided by the Eye of Sauron. Trying to actually hit mission objectives is painfully unfun.

Great concept, poor (not terrible) execution.

I really wanted to like it, but it fails short…
I dont even know how much points I accumulated, cause no battle ended for me since the event start.
Every plane that doesnt have 5000 chaff seems to be dead on take off due to the number of SAMs…

You think my Agm-88 had a chance ?

Why is there no ground combat in this year’s April Fools event, and why are ground vehicles only controlled by AI? It’s very unfriendly for players who aren’t good at top-tier air combat. I get shot down right after taking off, and I still have to pay for the repair cost.
Even the World War I event was better—at least you could play tanks. Isn’t the April Fools event supposed to be for everyone?

In most cases, the event is to test stuff.

Well. ARM is interesting, decent amount of LOAL, so looking forward to 9x ALARM on the Tonka, but god damn this event is boring by virtue of limiting it to such bad aircraft

  1. remove the option to bring own aircraft
  2. nerf how frequently ARMs are fought
  3. at least make the carring aircraft of ARMs similar geared on both sides. A7E old rwr no launch warning barly mach 1 vs mach 1.5 rwr, maw suchoj what ever is just no it

Everyone played one game and decided it was crap and was not showing any reward for the SL cost…
The players have spoken. lol

Yeah. Exactly, why are all these events always the same half dozen aircraft. Would the US mains really have that giant a panic attack if they werent the centre of attention

Cant wait for my HARM to go for B52 rear gunner radar signature

When I read the devlog, I could already picture myself unlocking both bombers, but then… When you see what you can do with the bombers in-game

The ideas are good, but it’s too chaotic

At least give us another option to earn points through ground battles

In my opinion the event would be MUCH more fun if you couldn’t take your own vehicles into battle
