Because probably 1-2/3rds of this thread were bombarded with it purely as a wishlist and no actual rumor or fundamental basis to talk about it on other than the very loose aspect of the fact we said more BVR missiles are coming in future (not even in the next update, simply that we were working on them).

We know for certain it wont be within the update, so their is no point in allowing the majority of discussion in a topic carry on so other people get mislead into thinking its coming when there are relevant topics you yourself created where it can be discussed.

If you and others had not have discussed it so many times here when we asked for it to be done in the correct place, we wouldn't have needed to burst that bubble so early.

We never claimed the Maus was a paper tank and thats why it was removed from research. We also made it clear it would make a return for special events.

The Flakpanzer 341, Kingtiger 105mm and Panther II in the configurations we had them in, never existed.

These tanks were also removed because they have replacements, whereas other examples still in game do not.

They have had 2 back to back in the last 2 updates ))))

Just because there are no rumors to discuss at any given millisecond, does not mean this topic just becomes wishlisting or whatever you want to talk about.

If you want to Wishlist, we have that here:

If there are no rumors, then its quite simple. Dont post in this thread and use the thousands of actually dedicated topics.

We are not here to provide rumors to keep this thread alive.

We shared out outlined plans for the year all the way back, they were not guaranteed as things to come and this is exactly why we dont like doing it, because when we try to provide a broad plan thats still very loose, naturally things change and when they do, people take it badly and treat it as broken promises. We still have 2 major updates to go indeed, thats certain.

We dont have a usual schedule. Its something people are inventing it by simply comparing to previous years. But as other updates have shown, it doesn't work that way.

Thats exactly the point. Who said they need "more" time? Who said the blogs are late?

They are not. They come every year when they are ready to come. Nobody said they must come by X date or things are late.

Your missing the point. We are not going to say anything, until we know for sure. We are not going to make blanket statements about a week/month etc when things can change.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Points up until this have been passed along.

Every day you ask, they get pushed back another day ))

Other entirely different games can do that as they generally have much longer lead times and have on 1 large singular thing to do like that. We are not going to take that approach, because as we have already explained, active development is a fluid thing. If we put a countdown on the first dev blog and then suddenly the day arrives and the model is not quite finished or there was a last minute issue that means it needs more time, there will be outcries of "you mislead us!" or claims we broke promises. The fact of the matter is we dont want to promise of even give any form of solid timeframe for things before we know for sure.

Experience from the past shows that whenever we give early intel and then plans change, its us thats to blame and we personally get called "liars" and "untrustworthy". So we are not going to do that. It may not ...

As has already been said, that interview was talking about our general plans for the year. Not things that are 100% set in stone to come. Plans and schedules sometimes change.

Thats exactly the point. If there are no rumors to discuss, you use the rest of the forum. Not just start random discussions here.

You use the whole other forum that is outside of this topic.

This topic is not just a dumping ground. There are countless threads and areas that most people are more than capable of using.

Its no excuse to constantly take this one off topic.

1) Im not sure why we are discussing any of these aircraft as none of them are coming in this update

2) No it doesn't. All 3 of those aircraft are entirely different. The fact that they have swing wings is about the only thing that unifies them, but it has no baring on when they come.

Please stop with the off topic guys. None of them are coming for now.

Fixed

This is indeed the feedback area.

There are a range of different objects for all ship classes to perform. You dont have to go toe to toe with cruisers and have a range of target options.

Both of us have already said that we cannot give any details yet. Asking us every day isn't going to change that unfortunately.

Dev Blogs start when they can start.

If you are having issues like this, please make sure you correctly report them with your files so we can check it out: https://forum.warthunder.com/index.php?/forum/587-connection-and-update-issues/

In general, we are not getting reports of issues like this. So it may be limited to you or a smaller group of people. None the less, we need to investigate.
