Update 2.41.0.26

Grateful for what? For placing a massive ghost cockpit on my screen via DLSS and distort my image by oversharpening or blurring the image out to the point it makes me sick?

Spoiler


Actually it affects even 3rd person. This is unplayable.

Thanks to this, I can now use Ray Tracing, more or less!

I still get very low FPS, 60-70; and there are still some drops down to 50 when changing cameras or when there are effects on screen… but at least now it’s mostly stable. Until now, I had around 55-60 FPS with drops down to just 25-30 and that was unplayable… now the experience is much more stable!

I will look forward to further optimisation and stabilisation. I’m sure you guys will be able to improve it even more! War Thunder’s high performance-to-visuals ratio is one of its signatures. It always gets a bit messy after a graphics update, but you always manage to make it better afterwards.

This was that nerf. Gaijin has the tendency to bunch up several consecutive smaller updates into one changelog, which are you are seeing here. Gaijin themselves have not disclosed a nerf to the F-15E/I prior to this, all of what you knew from before this is from datamines (the nerf happened itself in 2.41.0.21, with no seperate official changelog).

I cannot permanently apply my game mode of choice in the main page of new “improved” player profile. It keeps defaulting to Ground Arcade every time I log out of the game.

Disappointed that half the Ja37 bug reports are still not added

This made me so angry. Grinding the F15I wasn’t possible with this bug.

Or any of the harrier bugs.

Was the XM-1 (C) included with these pack removals as well?

I remember chasing something with the Radar in my F-14 IRIAF and then it was a missile gliding right by my side. I was so baffled that I kept staring, then it nudged closer to me and blew. Only light damage thank God.

Something like this:

Not that i know of, as far as i can see it’s still available?
(Buy War Thunder - XM-1 Chrysler | Xbox)

Unless i’m misunderstanding something?

Radars we have in the game should not really be able to see ordnance, let alone lock and track it. That´s just ridiculous. Sure, the F-14 and its Phoenix was specifically designed to intercept cruise missiles launched at naval fleet, but then again, cruise missiles have waaaay larger RCS than a bomb or a Sparrow.

Of course it was not a Cruise missile, just used it as an example. But I did somehow track something and ended next to a gliding missile.

I think you underestimate the abilities of even semi recent radars.

Think of it like this:
If a radar can detect a fighter jet at 200+km it really shouldn’t have any issues detecting a missile at like 30-40 km.
(compare it to holding your arm stretched and using your thumb to cover a distant car, both look the same size to your eye)

Community Bug Reporting System - Puma tracks blowing off

Could we get someone to look into this?? 2 months since its been forwarded to devs and the tracks still blow off, should be a very easy fix as its been applied to Vilkas and regular Puma.

I cannot get this answer anywhere? Do you know why the new Player Profile does not accurately reflect your actual statistics in whatever favorite mode it may be? My Player Profile has one set of statistics, but the actual Statistics Tab does reflect the correct statistics in that mode.
Are the statistics on the Player Profile during a certain time period? For instance, I have approx. 2780 Air RB airkills, but the Player Profile says approx. 1465 airkills. I am not getting this, is it a bug?

Uhh, why is the game overly sharp now? I went into the Post Effects tab to check if anything changed, I even lowered it to 0, and the game is still getting sharpened with sharpening artifacts (ie white pixels around corners) is now happening

When I switch on Raytracing, the Game gets a blurry Film, especially in the distance. And close objets seems to lose their sharpness.
