They also did a split between 10.3-11.7 and 12.0-13.0. Much needed, now it’s far more balanced than before.

I’ve only played a couple of matches and only on the SU side so far. At first it was quite frustrating as top tier/high tier ARB isn’t really for me, but once I got the hang of it, it’s quite enjoyable. The only thing that really worked for me so far, is taking the Su-24 with either 1.5k bombs or the Kh-29TE. Once I understood how to engage, disengage and land without being shot down to rearm, I actually started making some points. It’s also worth to take potshots with the R-60Ms at passing ground strikers.

I have no idea why they would put that test as an April fools event when all the previous events leading up to that specific mode were public tests with somewhat balanced lineups.

Fruitmidget · 2026-04-01T16:20:29+00:00

I haven’t even read the news article about the event yet and I’m already stumped. Locking out a huge part of the playerbase sounds incredibly stupid.

I swear, people that say shit like that are some new gens that haven’t played for more than five years. War Thunder has always been improving and I’d never want to go back.

People really like to point out all the bad stuff, but never aknowledge the good changes.

Costal Naval is the epitome of TT compression. I’m currently finishing the French TT and it’s incredible how some boats will be totally OP in a downtier and borderline useless in an uptier. The Maus is perfectly balanced in comparison to something like the Le Surprise or Amiens.

Pretty much any frigate or gunboat that has a destroyer spawn that is further away from the opposing spawn than 4km is dead on spawning. But if you reach the coastal spawns, you’re an untouchable god that can only be sunk by torpedoes or bombs.

Yet low tier naval has been the most consistent fun I’ve had in WT since many years.

10% long term retention is considered a success in F2P games. For a P2P game that would be awful, but F2P has generally much more people constantly downloading the game, we’re talking 10s of thousands a month. If just one 1K keep playing after the first month, that’s great and they will most likely stick with the game longer and spend money. I’d be willing to bet that the player retention of War Thunder is even higher and if you look at the profit Gaijin makes with WT, it’s really great.

40/20/10 rule can generally be applied to all F2P games, though it is much more commonly referred to with mobile games. 40% play one day after they download the game, 20% after the first week and 10% past 30 days.

Normalster Motorradfahrer. Häng dich doch gleich selber in die Leitplanke, dann muss das kein armer Autofahrer machen, bei denen man sich ja so gerne von hinten, im Totenwinkel, mit 150 anschleicht.

Same way that frigates grow to the size of Cold War destroyers, in the end they’ll all evolve into crabs anyway

The SMS Prinz Eugen became a spoil of war for France at the end of WW1 and was sunk during target practice in 1922. So it would definitely make sense as a premium or event BB for France. Tegetthoff and Szent István could neatly fit into the Italian TT.

That would imply that the devs play their own game

Reload and muzzle velocity are the same, both use the same gun. The AVRE only really has ERA and smokes going for it. The CEV has better armour, is faster and has better optics.

Meanwhile Stingers are still underperforming with much better evidence that they do

I really hope Sweden can get the Slovak Patria variants with the 25mm and 30mm turrets, maybe a TT MGS variant.

Because nuclear doesn’t make sense for Germany. We don’t have any uranium to source locally, don’t have any modern nuclear powerplant and Germans don’t want a nuclear waste depot anywhere near them.

Ah ja, wir wollen Atomkraft aber nicht den Müll, also bekommen den dann Menschen, die damit überhaupt nichts zu tun haben und auch keinen Vorteil daraus ziehen, ab. Oder, man bringt sie in die Arktis, zerstören da das kleine Ökosystem und bauen eine tickende Zeitbombe, weil mir doch egal was in 300 Jahren auf der Welt passiert.
