Container auto-drop

Any suspended container reduces flight characteristics - this applies to a container full of unguided rockets, it also applies to an empty one as they all affect the resistance of oncoming airflow! Previously we introduced the ability to get rid of some empty suspended containers. Now we are making that mechanic automatic! Depending on the type, containers can be dropped separately or after one type of ordnance is completely used up. For your convenience we have left the setting to enable or disable this feature: Automatic dropping of empty weapon containers.

[strike]Stationary [/strike]Moving target

UAVs are great for everything - they are great scouts, they help your whole team and your squad mates and they give you a nice opportunity to annoy the enemy by buzzing in their ear. But the trouble is that once you have launched your scouting UAV - your vehicle has been left motionless waiting for a lucky hunter. That was the way it used to be. Now you can control the UAV from a moving vehicle if you set the direction of movement and turn on cruise control before launching the UAV. Dont be like a rock. Keep moving!

Saving your rear!

We have fixed a bug with the incorrect display of the chaffs counter when firing them separately. Also, one flare and one chaff will be dropped in one shot. Good luck dodging that missile.

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.

Features include:

An entire arsenal at your command - Over 500 highly detailed aircraft, tanks, and other combat vehicles crafted carefully from historical documents and surviving sources.
Right into the heat of battle - Intense PvP experiences in full-scale combat missions on various difficulty settings for all play styles and degrees of experience.
A single bullet can make a difference - A realistic damage system for aircraft and ground vehicles involving individual component durability instead of an overall health bar.
The true free to play experience - Download and play the game for free as much and as long as you like it. Support the ongoing development entirely at your own leisure.
Crossing the platform border - Seamless cross-platform gameplay between Windows PC, Linux, Mac and PlayStation®4 (more to come) with tens of thousands of players from all over the globe online at the same time.
