Sound The following sound changes have been reverted back to how they were before the Seek & Destroy major update due to feedback surrounding them, and some will be reworked:

• The changes to ground vehicle crew voices, and the clarity and audability of commands, in particular due to the echo when viewed from the gunner.
  
• All explosion sounds due to the updated nature of the sound.
  
• The sounds of artillery shells falling due to the annoying nature of the sound.
  
• All long-range shots from ground vehicle cannons due to their monotony and “dull” sound.
  
• The M61 Vulcan and GAU12 mutli-barrel guns, we realise the updated sound was not seen as an improvement.
  
• The volume levels of all sounds, there are no changes now compared to what they were before the update.

Other

• A bug that caused Squadron Activity points to not be given has been fixed. (Report[community.gaijin.net]).

Patch notes reflect only key changes, meaning they may not include a complete list of all improvements made. Additionally, War Thunder is constantly being updated and some changes may not require an update. Changes reflected in patch notes are formed by taking reactions and requests of the community from the bug reporting service[community.gaijin.net], forums and other official platforms into account. Bug fixes and changes are implemented in order of importance, for example a game-breaking bug will be worked on and implemented sooner.
