Put in about 15 games today and still haven’t gotten it
are we ever going to get sever side clouds instead of client side, i getting really fucking tired of not seeing a aircraft that’s up my ass because the could is only there for me
The Greek Leo’s crew currently speaks Hebrew. Hopefully this will be addressed soon.
I also have a feeling Gaijin vibe coded a lot of this update.
Very pleased to see the AIM-120 series get some love!
I cannot find any posts on this main update thread about the changes to how a used crew slot is displayed during battle (how backups are shown, after using a vehicle/crew slot and being destroyed).
I do NOT like this change to how backups are shown. Previously, they would turn yellow so you could easily tell which vehicles you had already used; now they are just all white. This is a totally useless and negative change. There was nothing wrong with how the used crew slots where displayed previously during a battle (able to be reused with a backup.)
This is how it looks now after being destroyed, and available for respawn with a backup:

Big 👎 Please revert this change, thank you.
Can someone show me what are these specific position that are now supposedly “blocked”, like i went into a custom match to see how different they are since i play around those areas in attica and tunisia and i see no difference in that gridzone
unrelated but either my internet is acting funny today or the servers are severely overloaded
With German Stug 3 G getting smoke grenades, are they going to raise the BR to 4.3 to coincide with the Italian version? IMO they should be the same BR.
is it just me or what??
the game not even loading after the update it immediately crashes on the loading screen
been trying for 4 hours to fix it but it keep giving me this message

Ok, first, have you done a file check/verify with the War Thunder Launcher or Steam?
There are further steps to try, but that is always the first step if you are having an issue.
Yeah - you guys forgot to add the AIM-120A’s that are ‘technically compatible’ with the F-14D, and to which we have provided documentation on - multiple times, when you’ve added the F-102A with a missile it did not use, even could not use, because it was - to again quote the guy on your bug reporting team that shut it down ‘technically compatible’. Other nations have 13.0 ARH missile planes in their tech trees in terms of Arcade BR’s- including Japan with a MiG-29 that slings 6x RVV-AE’s that are better than AIM-120A’s, to say nothing of the lack of vehicles, let alone competitive ones, from 12.3-13.7, or more realistically 14.0 in Arcade given that basically every F-16 is now 13.7 save PoBIT and original with IR only (which is way over BR at 12.3) and even the MSIP II F-15 while at least getting 8x ARH missiles is still only packing 120A’s is still going against other planes with R-77’s or equivalent export/foreign copies that are carried in the same number and still a better missile. So why can’t the US have one in the tech tree?
Please, for the love of anything - take all the sub-5.0 aircraft, and put them in rank freaking 3. The fact that you haven’t added any of the remotely possible aircraft that are Ranks 1-2, some of which are copy paste options, is mind boggling, but at least throw us a freaking bone by making the Sakeen, SB2C-5, the Spitfire Mk IXc, and the P-51D-20 all Rank 3 to not only lower the cost of purchasing the aircraft and crew training/qualification but also lower the threshold of crew skills needed from 15 to 10 on these aircraft allowing players to more quickly get them more combat effective, and easier and faster then to train crews for ranks 4-9 having planes that can perform better sooner.
I’d also remind you that the SB2C-5 is only a Rank 3 in both the French and Japanese trees, and that the SB2C-4, of which the difference to it from the -5 is that the -5 has more fuel, a frameless sliding canopy and a fixed tailhook, is only Rank 2 in the US tree (meaning it like some other aircraft likely needs to move up to Rank 3 for the US such as the Hellcat back to Rank 3). The 4.3 BR Spitfire Mk IXc is in all reality the same as the one in the British tech tree - albeit that is labeled as Spitfire F Mk IX lacking the addition denoting the wing type while maintaining the one that designates it as a standard fighter, which sits in Rank 3. And P-51D-20 in the Chinese tech tree also sits at Rank 3, though the premium version in the US tree is for whatever reason Rank 4, when all it has over the -5 is a different gunsight and slightly more stability from dorsal fin changes introduced on the -10. Aside from of it’s 3.7 BR, the S-199/Sakeen is just pain as it is, and having to only get to 10 crew points in stead of 15 for expert qualification bonuses at least makes it slightly less suffering. Be consistent with the ranks of vehicles, and in this case - make our lives and the grind a tiny bit easier. And it’s not like you haven’t had gaps like this, or low numbers in a Rank before - and even still do much as you’ve thinned them out some in nations like Japan and Sweden, but hey - you could always put a LF IXe copy in the tech tree after the P-51D-20 or the clipped wing LF IX if you want it to stay consistent till you find other things for Rank 4. But for real, you added Greece, that opened up options even below Rank 3 from what I can find so we can actually progress are crews through the lines better.
Based on my own testing, there are way more things like gear ratio and neutral gear ratio that needs to be tweaked to make it work.
the sidewinders don’t clip with the aim120d either, it shouldn’t have been removed and hopefully this will be fixed with a patch
it got fully removed and should not be as the aim9ms do not clip with the aim120d on the dual mount pylon. hopefully this part gets rolled back

Nah, the italian should move down if anything.
@Smin1080p_WT @Stona_WT Are there any news about J16’s max speed and some new load outs(IR KH29/AKF-98A)? I noticed that these issues are accepted but not yet implemented.
Lots of nice QoL improvments in this patch
- Nuke event becoming permanent
- ARH buff
- Bomber damage models
- bonus for new NATO/USSR icons, although it does not change a lot it’s still bice to have
enjoying it so far, especially the nuke mode
Definitely a better patch than the last one imo
No, not this update. As we mentioned, the Rafale was the launch aircraft.
This is its intended designation.
