I think it’s WalvisYT.
Looking at his replays he is using it quite a few times in ARB matches outside of the event.
I think they were added to publicize the other game they mentioned, and, to be honest, they’d be probably useless even at 1.0 (even more so than the tanks) due to how painfully slow and underpowered they are, but I understand your sentiment. Maybe we’ll get them too someday.
Did anybody notice after playing the same map and even the same vehicles over and over , how much this game is down to pure luck? Just seem to be awarded kills in one game while every shot just bounces off in the next. Real lottery, made me question War Thunder overall in terms of my own skill and whether skill is even what gets you a good game or whether its just the algorithm kicking in and out.

Yeah but aces of thunder is just such a different game
Hello
This was a bug, it has been resolved now.
The only aircraft obtainable from the event is the H.P.12.

I wonder if the balance issues can be attributed to optics and rangefinding.
Namely, you can get precise on the dot range measurements up to 800 meters within ~3-5 seconds in a world war 1 tank with terrible optics and land precise shells on that dot.
This opens up spawn to spawn sniping.
Also commander’s bino gives very good magnification.
From my understanding, early-WW2 british tanks during france struggled with 200-300 yard shots and these WW1 tanks land 800 yard ones with ease.

Is this an April fools event with an element of testing for possible full time inclusion? If it is then a few bugs is understandable.

I agree, but for now, it looks like they’ve made up their mind about not expanding this event anyway.
Perhaps we’ll get them in the future in a similar setting. Hopefully.

Bugs don’t care about the intention of the coded software
Let’s hope :(
I just found I was almost “granted” easy kills in some games then denied them in others ,like its out of my hands , I’m firing at the same shell from the same vehicles in the same places in every game .Its the out come of those shots that I can’t decide and feel like pure luck.

if anything it’s a blessing seeing as how all the no skill players mostly gravitate to it, keeping them from rb
The full time inclusion is already part of the event. There are 7 obtainable vehicle rewards.

Bugs are part of the territory of gaming sadly and I did hear that this may be partly a test ground for future WW1 inclusion. I’m just asking the boss if he knows. You have to cut Gaijin some slack sometimes.
Which is great wonderful it’s amazing and I love it
But the but the fighters not being part of it is a little sad for me (mind you I’m not saying anything is your fault I don’t want it to come across as that) and the fact that they’re going to be in aces of thunder being the reason isn’t a very good one because aces of thunder will be first person VR only. Aces of thunder looks great by the way especially if it can use hand tracking with the VR headsets for the intractable cockpit and I can use a flight stick for throttle and stick.
