On July 14th, 1789, the Bastille fortress, a symbol of absolute monarchy, was taken over by rioting Parisians. It was one of the most important events of the French Revolution. And so, when at the end of the 19th century the French government decided to choose a date for the national holiday, they picked July 14th.

From July 14th (09:00 GMT) until July 18th (07:00 GMT)

Play 3 battles using French vehicles (rank III or higher, with an activity of not less than 70%) to receive the “Bastille Day” decal.

Commanders! You have probably already seen fireworks that War Thunder celebrates important dates with, such as New Year or Victory Day. We have changed the way they work a bit.

Firstly, the fireworks will no longer be displayed on the battlefield: that bothered some players. Now they will only occur in your hangar. Secondly, for worldwide celebrations like the aforementioned New Year and Victory Day we’ve added national holidays for each nation in which War Thunder is translated: for example, Independence Day. And thirdly, now you can define when the fireworks will be displayed just for you.

We’ve added an option for players to set their personal holidays. You can learn how to do that in the wiki (... Read more

War Thunder is a HUGE and in-depth game. We have approx over 2,000 vehicles in the game and we've just had a major update. Naturally, with a major update, issues can arise. With that amount of vehicles and the major update, there is bound to have problems occur.

The community reports many bugs on the bug tracker: https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder which are often passed back to the developers and when they are located, they are fixed and patched to the game alongside patchnotes. I hope you can understand this.

Cheers!

Originally posted by Mr. Black: Besides the battle pass, does Gaijin really think that such small rewards encourage a player to be farming 20,000 points under certain conditions?

Lets be honest, most player dont even have time for battle pass, this game is already very time consuming, the simple fact that the reward is ONLY ONE of the following items:
-booster
-replacements
-a few eagles
-a day of premium
-a skin
...(normally the bad booster always comes out)

it's insulting how little gaijin encourages its players to complete these types of tasks.

AND I KNOW THAT THIS KIND OF THREAD IS NOT GOING TO CHANGE ANYTHING, gaijin doesn't read these forums, even if a fellow reads them he doesn't care and nobody is going to move a finger, but I want to know if I'm the only player who finds this type of quest and the gaijin practices that treat their players with the tip of the boot ...
