Patch notes reflect only key changes, meaning they may not include a complete list of all improvements made. Additionally, War Thunder is constantly being updated and some changes may not require an update. Changes reflected in patch notes are formed by taking reactions and requests of the community from the bug reporting service, forums and other official platforms into account. Bug fixes and changes are implemented in order of importance, for example a game-breaking bug will be worked on and implemented sooner.

And you guys STILL have not added back in the ability to change between unit types from the crew skills screen (Land, Sea, Air).

Why do you guys consistently make things worse with many of these “improvements”? Seriously, what the actual heck are you guys doing?

I think the graphical changes to the crew skills screen are fine, maybe even good (especially for newer players.) But TAKING AWAY features and options is just beyond dumb. And it has been MONTHS and you guys still have not added back in a very important and highly used mechanic.

Yeah, the fact this feature is missing over a mere UI rework is mind boggling tbh. It’s a simple toggle that was very important to manage XP throughout different vehicle categories.
