Today, well be going over the bug fixes and improvements that weve made to the game over the past 2 weeks. Lets take a look! [quote]Have feedback? Feel free to leave it in this thread here or in the comments of this news post![/quote] If youve found a bug that youd like to report, you can do so on our community bug reporting platform.

New Naval Loading Screen Tips



Loading screens are not just for loading the game, but can also be a source of useful information. Weve added a bunch of tips dedicated to naval battles now. Theyll remind you about mines and depth charges, situational effectiveness of high-explosive and armor-piercing shells, features of early battleships, the ability to capture points with reconnaissance aircraft and many other things thatll be useful for new players.

Sound Fixes



Some helicopter pilots took advantage of the ability to adjust the volume of their own engine so that when they were in cockpit view and opened the doors, they could orient themselves to what was happening around them by ear. This gave them an unintended advantage, so now with the doors open, the sound of the helicopter rotor is independent from their engine volume settings and enough to mask external sounds. We also received a handful of feedback from players about the engine sound of the CV9030FIN, CV9035DK and CV9035NL being unrealistic, too harsh and lacking the diesel engine howl, so weve improved it. Have a listen to how they sound now!

An Additional Tutorial Mission for Testing Weaponry and Equipment



We recently added tutorial missions for ground vehicles, allowing you to get to know various weapons and equipment better. In todays update we added another one! This new mission allows you to train with the Strela-10M2 and its surface to air missile with a multi-channel optical homing head. As with all tutorials, you can access these through Battles > Tutorial from the hangar.

Optical Thermal Tracking Fix


The optical and thermal imaging capture should not be distracted by chaff, but due to a bug this happened when playing SPAAGs and IFV vehicles. Weve identified a problem here and have fixed it.

Thats not all!


You can find the full list of improvements in our main changelog! Heres a bit more: the TNT equivalent of HMX-based explosives has been corrected, the torpedo aiming marker no longer disappears after each launch, and target markers have been added to AGM and Guided bomb tutorial missions.

Today's update: Update 2.39.0.83


Ground Vehicles


  • Vilkas engine power has been reduced from 815 HP to 720 HP.
  • ZTZ99A a bug that knocked out the crew when the lower frontal plate was fired at with medium-caliber HE shells has been fixed. (Report).
  • A bug that caused optical thermal tracking of IFVs and SPAAGs to get distracted by chaff has been fixed.
  • Reduced repair time and decreased durability of commander sights.
  • The TNT equivalent of octogen-based explosives has been changed. Octogen (HMX) from 1.59 to 1.656, Okfol from 1.59 to 1.62, Okfol-3.5 from 1.325 to 1.598. Sources: . , . .. , . .. .
  • A new ground vehicle training mission that allows you to familiarize yourself with weapons and equipment has been added. This mission can be started through the Battles > Tutorial menu from the hangar:
    • SAM with multi-channel optical homing head

Aircraft


  • F-5E (FCU), AIDC F-5E a bug that caused the drop-tanks to not display in x-ray mode has been fixed.
  • Mi-28NM the 9M123 Khrizantema ATGM has been replaced by the 9M123M Khrizantema-VM. The range has been increased from 6 to 9 km. The maximum speed has been reduced from 550 to 400 m/s.
  • A bug where the sunrise or sunset time would cause the sun to appear below the horizon, visually turning the time of day into night has been fixed. Please note that some cloudy weather may also appear as night, but the sun will be above the horizon. This update does not fix this specific issue.

Naval Vessels


  • A bug where there were no waves and the water surface was mirror-like and looked like it was calm in any weather has been fixed.
  • A bunch of new gameplay and control tips suggested by players have been added to the loading screen.
  • Pr. 206, Pr. 206 (Germany), Pr. 206-M a bug that blocked torpedo firing when the bridge was destroyed has been fixed.

Sound


  • CV9030FIN, CV9035DK, CV9035NL the engine sounds have been adjusted and reworked in accordance with feedback. Previously, the sound was considered unrealistic, too harsh and lacking the diesel engine howl.
  • For all helicopters when viewed from the cockpit with the doors open, the sound of the external rotors is now independent of their engine volume settings. Their volume is set to an acceptable average level and is designed to mask external sounds. This is done in order to eliminate open cockpit doors as a way of orientation by hearing.
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, 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.

  • 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.
