The Dev Server is Opening with Major Update “Tusk Force”! — 05.09.2025

I am not sure if this is the right place to ask this but since it is a WIP update discussion thread; are there any plans for the Linux version of the game to ever get proper Wayland support? The launcher itself runs on Wayland but the game runs through x11. The workarounds like using proton and launching the windows version or using gamescope to force the game into running through Wayland are not solutions, these are cope outs for not paying attention to the Linux client. We know the majority of the player base is on windows but that is no excuse for treating the Linux player base like second class citizens, might as well drop the facade if they don’t care and remove Linux support at that point then.

Oh boy, this seems fair and balanced.

Since the Gang have been reworking the muzzle flash on some behind maybe its time to finally fix the comedicly annoyingly large muzzle flashbang that the 40mm Bofors has i mean its darn near impossible to See anything ur Shooting at when you have a constant strobe light on your screen.

Aswell as that mostly all Bofors guns in war Thunder except the m/42 gun Carrier has flash cones! So there shouldnt even be any visable muzzle flashes to begin with!

(Swedish public showcase)

As for example.

The new SP mechanic should be reconsidered.

The new SAMs, and the exclusion of AAs from the general spawn point pool makes the disparity between cost/benefit extremely high.

It also makes lineups less interesting as fielding lineups with suitable aircraft of both types less relevant.

If AAs were tied to the general SP pool, this change would be more understandable, as there would be more risk involved for everyone in what vehicles to choose/spawn.

But now someone can go 0-3, and still be able to spawn 1, often 2 AAs with the ability to (this latter part is more relevant with MANPADS/ARH SAMs), counter aircraft that costs ~700-1000SP to spawn with at best nominal input from the SAM player.

This is on top of the new system increasing the number of purely A2A aircraft already threatening the aircrafts.

Again, I understand the need to take actions against the prevalence of especially high tier CAS, but this is not taking action, but rather stripping a core part of lineup building.

Preferable action would’ve been reducing the benefits from scouting (not adding drone scouting, which is a whole other issue), adjusting the SP costs in general.

@Stona_WT Sorry for the ping but if we see any aircraft similar in game to this Mosquito that was flown under a RAF squadron with another nation say an RCAF squadron within the RAF can we make a bug report in order to change the operators flag if there is evidence it was under a RCAF squadron ?

Is the Oplot’s APFSDS still gonna be good? From what I’ve heard it has 550mm of pen, which is the lowest out of all of the 12.0 mbts. Sounds a bit rough

they love screwing us over i almost forgot i wasnt watching hentai

isnt oplot just a t-80 with kontact 5

Not really the point as that is a genuine skill vs ability issue. A good pilot can dodge anything. But only three nations can fire ordinace that far?

I use the Swedish T 80U at 12.0 with 450mm pen and its still good. Sure.its not great but i dont mind it.

From what I have heard, it should have significantly better mobility than most if not all other T-series tanks, especially the reserve gear.
