War Thunder "Tusk Force" - Changelog

Tanks should be able to revert to manual drives if the power traverse system is damaged, I wonder if that has been implemented…

When i had the battlepass heavy metal hero challenge, i thought it was 12 kills in grb, I did this very easily at 8.7-9.0 with good tank gameplay, then cas, then use more tanks if it was not enough.

Then i learnt it was only 6 kills because grb has 2x multiplier. 12 kills is not an impossible challenge, try at lower brs.

Thx

Only played a few prop AirRB games, but loving the new gun sounds

So the Pantsir-S1 radar is still broken, if not even more than before. I stopped playing War Thunder after previously reporting the faulty radar, and now it’s even more broken. With the release of BUK-M3, is it even worth researching as I am afraid it might retain the same broken-radar features?

Sadly nothing in changelog indicating it was fixed, does anyone know if it uses the same radar?

I saw a video where a lot of the guns just sounded the same, is that still the case or was that just a bug?

This reduction of max speed seems a bit high😎

I mean it is highly unlikely that an aircraft with a straight line speed of 430-450 kmph has now a Vne speed of 462 kmph.

So either you refer to the speed limit of the landing flaps or there is a typo regarding the maximum dive speed…

Edit:

Based on the test of a fellow player the 462 kmph is actually the rip speed.

This new value fails the “common sense” test. I mean the plane was all-metal and not as fragile as planes with wings made out of wood - and the new rip speed is less than 10% of the fastest version in a straight line.

im pretty sure the description is just missing

I’m not sure as I’ve only played a few games of similar aircraft/guns

There’s a small bug ongoing atm.

Scorecard during the match isn’t tracking kills, assists, deaths in real time.

there was no need to limit the usage of planes in naval battles - the aa in this mode is totally overpowered so cas is no issue at all.

soyuz is fully balanced … ;-)

It is in the patch notes:

Now it really is flabbergasting as to why this functionality together with the turret basket “functionality” was enabled when the leos and abrams got them immediately but now can’t be enabled when it is modelled for these tanks (unless and i guess what that means is that other tanks in game have the models for fire control systems already and on those it also does nothing as of now, just weird what it is then thats blocking the turret basket and disables turret traverse), but honestly, i stopped wondering about stuff in this game a couple of years ago. makes life easier.

One day snail does this, next day snail does that. One day some metal sheets block turret traverse, next day small 20 mm metal sheet blocks all spall created at the hull but not the turret traverse.

One day tank cant lower its gun at 90° sideways of the hull and back, next day other tanks can depress their gun over the back clipping into the engine deck.

yes, but you must also have the most kills to get the reward - I don’t understand why these rewards got harder to obtain - an game should provide fun and some challenge

The .50 cal from a tank still sounds good, loud, good bass, but the same cannot be said for .50 cal sound from a plane, which sounds like gravel hitting a tin can. I’ve heard these changes before and then they were later eliminated. If it’s not broke, don’t “fix” it. I thought my plane had 7.7mm’s instead of .50 cal.

Nerfing the “Heavy Metal Hero” award is lame !

As a French and German main, I find this “major” update appalling…

Only (Belgian) M55 added to both tech trees + SAMP/T.
Dutch Squadron F-16 that’s gonna take ages to unlock.
No new TT planes or helicopters otherwise.

Disappointment would be an understatement !

Is it just me or did Gaijin secretly buff 3BM60? Because I do NOT remember it penetrating 580mm of armour…

You forgot to mention the MiG-29 getting single pop countermeasures as well as F-14
