War Thunder: The Great War!

YOU CAN’T HAVE THE FT-17!

The event has issues in split matchmaking (there should be 1 matchmaker that auto assigns people to sides for balanced queuing) and traction.

However, it’s pretty enjoyable for what it is.

My major wish is that I wish they added a simulator battles option. I wanna cut my teeth trying to fly a WW1 plane without any of the luxuries my beloved corsairs and spitfires and mustangs afford me against people dealing with similar challenges. I’d probably fail terribly, I need my ability to trim.

By the ned of the day we were able to read the Central powers by the book, I won three games in a row first place, and got close second place, the Triente is my favorite and the Char Saint Chamond is a beast!

Gaijin please reconsider the fighters. I would LOVE for them to be in the game and I don’t have a VR headset for that other mode. Their beautifully modeled, why take them out of the game if their already in?

Mate, the only toxic people are the Realistic Elitists who go on and on about how people who play Arcade have zero skill.

Ok, this event has been the most fun I’ve had in a long time.

I’m loving the WW1 vehicles, only dislike two of them, being the Russian truck and the Zeppelin.

And despite me not playing some nations anymore, I’m 100% going to get everything. I do hope they add more WW1 vehicles/let us get what we couldn’t from this event at a later date.

I want SPAD SXIII as reward

Hey everyone I need some help, just noticed that when the Handley Page is pitching up, the elevators pitch down and vice versa, shouldn’t it be the other way around? or am I just stupid

Edit: you can also drop bombs upside down?

Edit 2:


??? should it be able to gain lift at 20 KPH on one engine?

It should be an auto-team picker but the challenge then has to be just 10,000 score in any nation rather than 5000 in each

This event is amazing, Gaijin! Outstanding work!

I really wish the aircraft could be earned, too, though. Also, I know I’m not alone when I say I still want World War I era vehicles and battles to be properly implemented into War Thunder. Please?

Wouldn’t be balancable unless it was a separate matchmaker from 1.0. All the 1.0 planes would demolish the ww1 planes

The BR system desperately needs a complete overhaul, anyway.

arcade as gamemode existing alongside realistic for people who like it takes nothing away from you

Garford is not bad in arcade.
Unplayable in realistic. Big silhouette, very slow, can’t go up any hill.

So, the Germans steal another vehicle from the British?
(Joke)

Man, I hate Gaijin when Germans afford new commonwealth stuff while Tommy can get none of the German-built things as a whole. :P

In the meantime, I’m glad to see two of Mark V instead of one.

they stole the russian truck too, only german vehicle is the a7v lol, guess it makes sense cause they didnt have much

i wish we could get fiat 2000 or fiat 3000, i think there is some potential for WW1 mode in the game (like a permanent addition)

like I said earlier to somebody else, it wouldn’t work unless they decompressed BRs greatly because the planes would be useless against 1.0 planes

no, like a separate mode from grb, like leaving the april fools gamemode in the game

with ties to progression or no?
