War Thunder Dev Tracker

After WW1, France was clearly among intellectual leaders in tank design. Renault was still pretty much an apex predator in the industry, but there was another interesting entity eager to take on the challenge — Hotchkiss!

Thank you for all your feedback! Your suggestions and ideas were passed to the development team. They will continue to work on it and when ready, we will again share any news with you.

Today there was a BR update which we have every few months:

The German Churchill was one of the vehicles changed.

All vehicles in game are subject to Battle Rating changes. Not a single vehicle has a fixed BR, nor has any vehicle ever been sold or advertised with a fixed BR.

A refund is not possible, as there is no case for it. You purchased a vehicle. You were not sold it with a fixed BR and nor was any promise made that its BR cannot change. The dynamic BR system has been in game since 2014. All vehicles in game can have their

I think this is just a case of confusion.

We do pass suggestions and feedback from this topic, as it very often links directly to suggestions / bug reports etc.

The topic itself is not a suggestion, more a hub that directs to them.

Planned BR changes..


For 20mm armour-piercing ammunition on ground vehicles, the parameters of the expansion cone of secondary fragments have been fixed. Earlier, this ammunition gave a cone of expansion of fragments corresponding to the armour-piercing shells of larger calibres. After correction, secondary fragments hit targets behind the armour in a narrow cone along the trajectory of the ammunition flight, damage of fragments more closely matches the energy of the projectile.


R3 T20 FA-HS - stabilizer use speed is limited to 25 km/h. Fixed (reduced) unit rocking whe

Fixed a bug on helicopters where, when leaving the camera view from the gunnery position, selected NVG mode was reset (report 1, report 2, report 3).


Fixed a bug where in some cases low quality textures might be loaded for vehicles in the hangar with higher graphics settings (report 1, report 2, report3, report 4).


Fixed a bug where in rare cases an aircraft kill with critical damage might not be counted (report).


Fixed a bug where the standard camouflage might be replaced on the same vehicle.

Very soon. Devs have just been very busy.

G.91YS BR was a perfectly valid suggestion, just its best in the BR suggestion topics as thats where its all collected. As the recent changes showed, it was changed based on feedback there and will be 9.7 in the next update.

The changes you refer too with the skins for example is part of a larger solution and eventual fix to resolve the bug that has been persisting where similar vehicles or same vehicles in different nations show each others skins incorrectly. So yes, I think the Sim community in particular will be very grateful when that issue is fully resolved in due course as a result of this first step and thats also a prime reasons why datamining and assumptions are also not a great way to go about things.

You also assume that because those things were changed today, that took time away from othe

We don't use valid criticism to dismiss anything. Whats really being said in the posts I responded to, is misleading, out of context claims that are incorrect and don't reflect the overall puicture. They are also personal opinions on subjects not related to this topic at all and best kept out of it to keep this on topic.

What you assume to be "easy" changes dont often translate into easy and quick to do in an already very busy landscape. Again, suggestions come from all corners. This topic is one and there are countless.

Nobody was calling out passion or conc

If this was backed up by enough evidence to prove this is the case, then it would indeed be forwarded and have a high chance of being resolved in the future. Model corrections take time (particularly on older models) but are generally always dealt with once enough information and evidence has been located to solidify the change.

Changes dont always need a big amount to be done. Its also the same with feedback. Celere Sahariano is a good example of that. In the grand scheme of things, it was not a massively requested tank from the whole community at all. Even among Italia
