War Thunder "Line of Contact" - Changelog

It doesnt show on the leaderboard thing.

And your highest vehicle must be over 9.3 or 9.3

SO the already toptier player gets free respawns in a full downtier but everyone else not? sure makes sense…wtf…

Free respawns was a system dedicated to people who buy a high rank premium vehicle and have nothing else to run with it. It incentivizes new and existing players to keep purchasing high rank premiums without worrying about a line up, because they are now given one. Gaijins shoddy fix for one death leavers, if only it actually addressed the core issue.

It’s not top tier

Is anyone having horrid server Packet loss for the last 3 ish days?

So, how do you like the 14.0 air combat game, people? Isn’t it great that the team with the most Su-30s always wins?

Who is motivated to buy a prem without a lineup when u get STOCK free backups that have no premium benefit? Thats defeating the point of buying a prem in the first place no?

What that system was for is nothing more then advertising a new feature, same as atom bombs, shovels, tree damage system and every time they change the sounds back and fourth. Not more, not less. It was never supposed to improve anything. And you find proof in the comment section of that update, as even the officital gaijin mods told everyone that is was never supposed to do anything and that they dont give a damn if u onespawn or not. And with the limitation to high tier it makes even less sense alltogether, as the higher the BR the less people want to play non prem stuff.

Please refer back to this:

Yes.

It is what happened when I play the R400 I get Stinger Gepard for free some times.

Don’t feel like the free extra vehicles are really helping at this point, guessing most people don’t care for using stock vehicle, especially if it has the research efficiency penalty and HEATFS is their standard round while fighting ERA covered enemies
Hell, lots of them can’t be bothered even using backups

We have lot of ground vehicles while the ’ Location and mission updates’ demolish the whole maps concepts, thats a fact. However it’s fancy and nice new view, the object re positioning, new shapes of objects, new addition and removed objects, changed ground terrain, removed flora, destroy the whole concepts and convert each ‘revisited’ map into a layer map or a RAT playground… but how i am … just a not satisfied customer…

every update makes the game worse remove the bmpt and bmpt72 the pay to win bias is unbelievable

A question for the snails - this is the same player, in the same battle.
I have two different tanks. The first time, it didn’t care about a HEAT round hitting the turret, the second time, I couldn’t penetrate its thin side with an APCR round. Is this some kind of premium vehicle magic?


Sabot rounds have very poor angled performance.






E=mV*2/2

If i recall correctly, the F-15C GE should’ve gotten the legion pod this update, no?


There’s a 20mm sidewall, and an 82mm mortar shell dropped nearby would completely destroy it. There’s absolutely NO armor there.
By all the rules of ballistics, if the armor thickness is less than two projectile calibers, a simple breach occurs without any ricochets; you can even fire BBs. This is as old as time, dating back to World War II.
And even assuming that, how did the HEAT shell manage to hit? If, again, it penetrates the armor in any direction, and that’s precisely where the gunner and commander should be heading for the land of eternal hunting?

This update has ruined the game for me, the BMPT is too overpowered for its br. It is the reason i do no longer play ground. And the reason i did not extend my premium time. The in this state does not deserve my money. the BMPT should be at 12.7 it is one of the most modern ground vehicles in the game and should not be at the same br as tanks from the 1980’s. it should be at 12.7 with other tanks of the 21st century.

You should copy+paste your reply in the “main” BMPT thread if you have not done so already friend: BMPT/72 Should not be 10.3
