Nuclear Thunder!

Do you plan to do something to fix queue times? Maybe let players grind out both vehicles playing on either side?

Take your time and improve it. Thank you for transparency bvvd.

I hope we can see the results used in ground battles as well:

Could be interesting to see tactical nukes as… a huge advantage, but not quite end of the game, especially on larger maps.
Same for navy, although, not sure if folks would be too happy seeing their precious ships getting nuked.

Thats nice to hear :)
Cant wait to see the progress on it :)

Surely the SAMs which fire on the move are known, right?

You can grind in lower BR. I think to BR 12.0 is separated quene where you wont met 4th gen. I tested it to BR 11.3 so I cant confirm to BR 12.0.

If it does return is there the possibility of the nuclear armaments returning?

Also if this does become a permanent mode is there any chance it could be expanded to lower BR’s? Obviously with some tweaks but it could be modified for the use of late WW2 → early Cold War with stuff like the B-29 and Tu-4 taking the part of the B-52H and Tu-95M.

Also No.2 is there any plan for the nuclear explosion visuals to be added to the game ending nukes in ground battles? I know you don’t see it much but it would be a great use for the technology.

i think it would be awesome if after you get the B52/TU95 you get the option to switch the nuke plane out in ground battles for the strategic bomber and try drop a nuke but instead of ending the game it just kills everyone (maybe other than team mates cause that wouldnt be fun)

yes please give me the victor aswell

War thunder is saved. Can’t say I didn’t lose hope.

But bvvd brings the light.

Something like that, yeah - basically, it eliminates pretty much everything in affected area.
But battle goes on, if spawns and tickets are left on both sides.

ok dont go to far we still have the “balance” in top tier ground
aka the challenger and ariete for example performing way worse than they should and a lot of nato tanks for that matter

(and the pantsir SM-SV MI28NM SU30SM2 and the infamous BMPT ruining top tier)

yeah i think that would be such a cool feature cause its not just another number on your profile and 15k sl for an achievement

I gave up on that years ago lol

Thanks BVVD. Bless your soul.

Looks like I’ve created the Tu-95MSM suggestion at the best timing haha - Great news.

I just noticed, my April Fools suggestion is technically valid now, damn XD

This mode has been a lot of fun, the SL reward is worth the play time, very cool event reward, much better balancing than the previous F4 vs Mig21 event, and you guys added layered anti-air defence extremely well! Extremely cool to see in War Thunder.

The only complaint I have is that the “free” F4E is rather bad when compared to the free Mig23MLD since F4E radar is near useless and I suggest that the US should get F4J instead because the radar actually works below ~1km and would be more competitive. But like I said, this event is much better than the previous ones. Overall, an amazing job from the dev team, good job!
