Updated War Thunder forum

Which means if true gaijin killed the forum over 249 bucks a month XD

Well given that all the recent “armed forces day” decals look like they were done by someone’s eight year old and they seem to have stopped paying anyone who can actually draw too, I’d say cutting corners on the forum seems pretty consistent. Money be tight.

for some reason, even if they sell a billion 50 buck premiums, based on the line ups i am fighting at basically any br with premuims that cost teh same as a triple A game.

You guys really deleted a whole forum with unlimited amount of useful information?

Literally Alexandria libary fire.

Now is there any news regarding the suggestions?

i really hope that the suggestions we made on the old forum, will be reserved for us on this new forum. i cant afford otherwise.

you apporved many of my suggestions the week before the change, even 1 day before! and i also had a lot pennding. i worked so hard for those… all i ask, is to make the suggestions reserved for the creator…

no news yet, looking like we are going to have to just copy paste them over ;(

Yeah, i am just worried

I dont have time to transfer ca 140-150 suggestions in a couple days, and i have spent too much time, creating those on the old forum for anyone to take them, i want my work there to be safe

If i knee this would happen, i would have waited by creating the suggestions… Heck we should have an “open beta” of some sort, where one could try out the new forum, mabye start to transfer the suggestions or start on the new ones…

I never ever expected the forum to be replaced, after being safe for so long lol…

this just shows that “hurrdurr we pay less money this way” isnt the real reason

A feature that really needs to change is the hard requirement to select a nation when creating “machinery of war” posts. Some posts are not about a speicifc nation or aircraft and instead may be about “aircraft” generally. I just created a post regarding 2 stage afterburner and was forced to place it within Britain as it does concern the Tornado. But it would be better suited to be within the “general” area

How do tags work in the new forum? I can’t create a new tag?


I want to post a topic concerning helicopters, and I want to tag it “helicopter”.
But it won’t let me create the ‘helicopter’ tag.

Oddly enough, the forums let me create anything else except helicopter. Is there a sense to this? Is it because there’s a category out there called helicopter? But why does it show “No matches found”?


Am I supposed to be creating tags in the first place?

agreed, its terrible. And not needed. Again worthless decisions on where to spend their development time.

communicating and cooperating isnt gaijin’s strong side. They still have a lot to learn.

kind of does, as if they are already licensing it for enlisted the change was free

Added “other” and “few nations”. That should solve the issue.

bloody hell, they did this for a couple of thousand difference? taking such a step backwards while doing it. pfff. I cant even edit my posts…

is this change related to the Gaijin Marketplace change wich was done quite a while ago?

Considering that it has the same layout/dark theme and such?

It would be so much better to rework/renew the old forum

So, fun fact, I can’t edit my posts. Clearly this is incorrect.

“Create tags” is TL3 by default.

Got to get to TL 2 for that.

so get posting and reading noob 😁

Nope, just TL1 for can edit during 2 days.
