As mentioned in our previous Roadmap post 3, we plan to condense and revamp vehicle branches across all trees. Following discussions and feedback collection, we noticed that several new groups and the placement of certain individual vehicles sparked a lot of questions. As we said 1, we would update you with more information. We’d like to answer the most pressing questions here and describe the principles that govern the new changes in more detail.

When creating new groups and transferring vehicles between ranks, our primary focus is on the Battle Rating, rather than how similar vehicles are to a certain family or operating country. As a new standard, groups are formed with a BR difference of no more than one step (0.3-0.4). However, groups with a larger BR difference are present and in these instances, the larger BR gap is a result of our aim to keep ranks condensed. Our goal with this approach is to allow players to continuously expand their lineup with similar vehicles (... Read more

Armored and mechanized forces played a pivotal role in the USSR's victory in World War II. In their honor in 1946 a professional holiday of tankers and tank constructors was established. It is celebrated every second Sunday of September, commemorating the breakthrough of the Soviet armored forces during the East Carpathian Strategic Offensive that took place on September 11th, 1944.

KV-2 (ZiS-6) available temporarily for Golden Eagles
To commemorate Tanker’s Day, Soviet heavy experimental tank KV-2 (ZiS-6) will be available for purchase for Golden Eagles from September 8th (13:00 GMT) until September 12th (07:00 GMT). It’s pretty impressive: six crew members, decent speed and passability, and, of course, the ZiS-6 gun with shells that easily pierce the enemy armor and do a lot of damage.

Before you start to edit them, it's always best to save them to file (there is an option in control menu).

Thanks for the help! Also I will take the chance to shoot another quick question if you don't mind, I have some replays saved where I did some cool stuff, but now I can't play them because it says there they are from a previous version ...

Today, we’d like to share with you some of the new features and effects coming to War Thunder in the upcoming “Sons of Attila” major update!

New trees and wind effects
We’re introducing a brand new technology for the trees present on Ground Forces battlefields. Now tree branches and trunks will sway and move with the same wind forces that already impact smoke and weather during battles. In calmer situations, trees will be still and motionless. However, with gusty and stormy winds present, trees will move and bend depending on how strong the wind is!

Shots and explosions
In our efforts to make tank battles even more spectacular, the game will now have new effects for the discharge of powder gasses after every shot. Prolonged bursts of machine gu... Read more
