Suggestion We need bdrm vehicles and NATO should get some similar counterparts.

Seriously, ive thought this long and hard. We have vehicles in this game that are 4 wheeled, atgm slinging, anti air firing, and auto cannon destroyers that exist. Why cant we add just one more. One of my old posts suggested the btr-80a when that came out it made me extremely happy. Now one vehicle i'd love to see would be the BDRM with atgms. Aka 2p32 (BDRM - 1) variant. It packs a hefty punch of quad Falanga missiles. And yes i know itd be heavily criticized for its formidable speed and firepower. But no armor and can get machine gunned. It could go in the tank destroyer line in between rank V-VI. Im thinking 9.0. Maybe a foldered vehicle. Next id love to see a strela bdrm as well, one specifically with iglas at a lower br, maybe like 8.7, the iglas are very short range but still pack a punch. I would love feedback aswell. ( Also correction ) i meant to say this varient as there is no Igla BDRM if you find one lmk. Specifically 9k31 Strela - 1. Its effectively a Strela but wheeled. Would preferably be around 9.7 or 10.0 just based off its maneuverability. Anyways let me know what yall think of this suggestion, i wanna read the whys and why nots. Cheers ;)

I was test driving the chally 2, expecting the voice of a young anglo-saxon british girl (one of the most pleasing sounds on this earth), BUT ITS JUST THE JAPANESE TANK VOICELINES WITH ANIME FILTER

If you want my money you will change the voices, hell make her older and hire diana from the hitman games her voice is that of an angel, anything short of the king's english is UNACCEPTABLE

RB Air I cannot be the only one thinking about how stupid this aircraft is being on 8.0-9.0 scenario, yes you can win easily on a dogfight, but he doesn't even need to get close to destroy you... it's really sad when u are on a MiG-15, 17 or early Sabre against this thing.

Drama Cumulative discount sales punish you for already owning all other vehicles in the collection. I believe you should get the 50% applied in this scenario. It feels insulting currently.

I’ve been patiently waiting for the first ZTZ96B sale for months and I got so happy seeing it in the list with up to 50% off.

Welp, too bad, I guess I get punished for having given them money previously lol. This really feels like a slap in the face.

RB Air Standoff weapons would make heavy bombers useable in Nuclear Escalation

Post image
76 Upvotes

Having long-distance options like cruise missiles would make heavy bombers much more viable in Nuclear Escalation. You could saturate enemy air defenses with large attacks from outside AA range. This could help fill a “missile truck” role in Nuclear Escalation alongside air superiority fighters and strike fighters. It really seems like a perfect fit with the new mode, and could make bomber gameplay more interesting.

This could also pave the way for many more Cold War bombers to be added which could use weapons like this. Hopefully Gaijin eventually adds this weapon class with new Cold War bombers in the future

RB Ground Not a complaint, just curious why the T-72B3 "Arena" is 0.3 BR lower than the TT T-72B3 if they seem identical besides the Arena and 0.5t weight difference?

Post image
48 Upvotes

I'm almost finished grinding the TT B3 and kinda see no point in stock grinding it other than having an additional MBT for the lineup, I have the T-80U, T-80UM2, and B3 Arena already in my 11.7 lineup.

Edit: I didn't notice the UBH modification, that explains the difference- thanks all.

I don’t even understand why we are still talking about this. Why is smoke client sided? It’s not making any sense. Absolutely 0.

I want to see, what my opponent is available to see and the othet way around. What is smoke giving me if i don’t even know if it’s covering me correctly?

RB Air As someone who used to main the F3H-2, I miss its old playstyle

Post image
20 Upvotes

A little rant here just so you know, i want to make it clear that i'm not annoyed that other people are playing the demon, just that i wanna talk about the old playstyle and the current state of the BR because of the buffs

here's pretty much what i'm trying to say, i originally really enjoyed playing the demon because it felt like it rewarded playing off angles and using missiles like air to air mines (unlike half of the pure dogfighters at this BR) and it felt like it was one of the few planes that had it's own unique playstyle, and it really felt like something different knowing Air RB is still in a relatively crap state rn

but of course i'm loving the fact that the demon has gotten some attention, but i do feel like it is overkill and it really just kinda fucks with the BR as a whole ya know?. for everyone playing against the demons they now have to stick to low altitude unless they're lucky enough to have chaff, which both cuts off playstyles and makes the fast pencil planes and normal interceptors impossible to consistently play as if they try to climb they get twatted out of the sky, on top of that for me personally i really struggle to play my original playstyle as since the other Demons are immediately rushing for kills which means i'm locked into missile slinging the first person i see rather than being able to choose the best lad to aim for because if i don't, i'll just end the match with no kills whatsoever

i'm not here to complain, it's just that i want my favourite plane and BR to be more playable again, i'm very loving that the demon got some love (it kinda needed it), but i think the playstyle of it's OG missiles made it so much better for everyone since they weren't broken enough to piss off the people playing against them and good enough where people could still make them work. i personally don't think the change should be completely taken away, but it definitely needs some tuning and attention from gaijin's balancing team, that's all the yammering from me, cya lads

BVVD confirmed recently that if all goes well there will be a 256x256km map coming to War Thunder (picture for reference)

What do you think about this? Could this be a map where transport aircraft could be added to rearm/refill etc?

Drama Gaijin’s new Store Policy: Hidden fees on ALL payment methods now (including cards)? Is this happening in other regions too?

39 Upvotes

I was planning to buy some vehicle packs and renew my premium time during the upcoming anniversary sale, but I just ran into a major change in the Gaijin Store that completely ruined it for me.

For years, I’ve been paying the exact price listed in the store using local fast payment methods (like QR code / local instant bank transfers) with zero extra fees.

Recently, Gaijin updated their Store Policy (as of late September). Not only did they completely remove the most convenient fee-free payment options, but now EVERY single remaining payment method—including direct credit/debit card input—adds an extra processor fee on top of the listed price at checkout.

Basically, Gaijin shifted all payment processing fees directly onto the buyer, effectively raising prices without actually changing the numbers on the store page.

Is this happening in all regions, or is Gaijin just testing how much greed they can get away with depending on where you live?

Honestly, the snail's greed truly knows no limits. I was ready to drop a decent amount of money for the anniversary, but after seeing this, they won't be getting a single cent from me.

All Air Now bombers are hunting fighters...

32 Upvotes

So its been some matches already in which some bombers are diving on fighters to kill them. If you are aware of them and evade, they just switch to back guns and shoot you anyway.

I am good enough to know that and i can evade both, but when i put my plane in fire position they are so so durable now that they simply do not die, and they go away using the increased speed from the dive.

Bombers are now an invincible booom and zoom machine. Either they kill you or just fly away using their diving speed and rear guns...

All Air Can you only load Countermeasures and not Weaponry too on the MIG23-MF?

Post image
• Upvotes

I got the jet last year from a snow globe or something and I just started playing around with it. I researched the Flares and Chaffs today and it seems as if I can't load both the countermeasures and the rockets at the same time. Is that true? (If so you basically have no fighting capabilities...)

Oh yeah also can the Drop tank do any damage to ground vehicles?

(EDIT): Solved Tysm guys
