In this digest we would like to tell you about our continuing work on improvements and fixes in the game.

Vehicles in the sight disappear at distance

This was the complaint about some individual helicopters where the described bug may occur. We found the cause of this issue and want to invite you to verify the fix in the battle.

Accelerated the turn for the M4 Sherman series

The entire series of American medium tanks became slightly more dynamic when turning on the spot - and there is nothing else to add about it. Better to check it out for yourself.

Continuing to set up the anti-aircraft defence

The helicopter pad air defence has undergone a new tweak. We noted your comments on the anti-aircraft artillery range that reached the battlefield of the ground vehicles and interfered with the battle. The range of warning fire has been reduced by 500 metres, the number of anti-aircraft guns has been halved and anti-aircraft guns themselves now only provide warning fire. The enemy will no longer be able to hide from your attack under anti-aircraft guns located at the edge of the battlefield. We continue to monitor and improve this.

Fixed some bugs in the flora

Several notable fixes regarding vegetation. We have removed the effect of the dust that appeared near trees when a shot or explosion happened nearby and left only beautiful falling leaves. Fixed the animation and voiceover for falling bushes that sounded like big trees and also left big clouds of dust behind and our staff of lumberjacks uprooted trees from the runway in the Sicily location.

We have also added a small reward in SL to the Children of Arachis event for actions that are also rewarded with Lions in random battles. You still have time to participate in the Battle for Arachis and its trophies!

More improvements

For this digest we have prepared a large set of useful fixes and game improvements. Be sure to read the full list below - there are many interesting things. Once again, many thanks for all your bug reports that you submitted using our special service.

Available DLCs

War Thunder is a free-to-play, cross-platform MMO combat game for Windows, Linux, Mac and PlayStation®4 dedicated to military vehicles used in and around World War II and the Korean War. In War Thunder, you can take part in major battles on land, in the air, and at sea, fighting with real players from all over the world in a continuously developing environment.

War Thunder already offers a highly detailed experience in military aviation and ground forces combat, giving players access to a Guinness World Record breaking number of aircraft, as well as an abundance of tanks and other combat vehicles - and the number is constantly rising.

You can feel the unmatched intensity of aerial dogfights in a fighter, the decisive power of commanding a heavy strategic bomber or the heat of battle in a ground attacker, delivering precision strikes against your enemies. Alternatively, you can join the spearhead of armoured vehicles, fighting for dominance over the battlefield on the ground: Man a heavy tank with impressive armour and firepower, use the maneuverability of a medium or light tank to your advantage, or support your team by screening the skies with your anti aircraft vehicle - the choice is yours!

In the future, the game will also allow players to ‘set sail’ by commanding a variety of warships in the fight over the control of the world’s oceans, giving the game a truly epic scale.

Master your vehicles through both upgrades and personal experience in an environment that is constantly expanding and rewarding the personal skill of the player. Organise your efforts in one of the countless player squadrons and become an ace pilot or tanker - or both! Our thriving and welcoming community of millions of players is also actively participating in the game’s ongoing development, offering custom content through War Thunder Live, such as skins, missions and even vehicles.

War Thunder has something for everyone. Play cooperative games with your friends on Windows PC, Linux, Mac or PlayStation 4 against AI, or squad up for a PvP battle in a difficulty setting matching your play style, ranging from Arcade to Simulator using Mouse and Keyboard, Gamepad or Joystick.
