Gaijin is this year looking for suggestions and ideas for the next year. Survey will close on December 25th 07:00 GMT!

I'm looking into buying a premium to grind German ground(and German air but I'm pretty settled on the Ju-288C for that.) And the RU 251 seems like a decent choice.

My german lineup is only up to 5.3- I have the first proper Panther and the first Tiger so it'll be awhile before I have a lineup to back the RU 251 up.

After buying it I'll only have like 300 GE leftover, and pack vehicles aren't an option.

Gaijin released yesterday the trailer for the new update, Kings of Battle. New vehicles such as F-111 Aardvark, Object 775 and AMX-10P are being showcased in it.

The Vickers Mk.11 is a prototype wheeled combat vehicle developed by British company Vickers as part of a private venture in response to an Australian requirement in the 1990s, this vehicle will arrive in the game with the next War Thunder update!

I started playing WT in late 2013 and nearly daily played since 2015. I play mainly arcade but also realistic ground and 8vs8 squadbattles. I prefer mainly low tier, ww2 tanks but very rarely play cold war 7.0-7.3 stuff.

For some reason, I never tried simulator battles in all my years. Maybe it's because I am burned by realistic, which I absolutely do not enjoy. Maybe it's all the cheaters or ULQ players, but I die 80% of time by enemy hidden behind buildings some 700m away from my spawn.

But holy shit is simulator battles different! Here you don't get any labels, have to actually use your knowledge and brain to identify targets and I feel like only genuine players play that, for fun. Seeing Sherman's running around everywhere then use logic and binoculars to actually see the marking is satisfying.

What are your thoughts about realistic Vs simulator? What do you enjoy more?

Hi I'm an old-timer who have played some WT several years ago. I wanted to try it out again, but heard that there was a controversy because Gaijin is a scumbag. Was this problem solved?

😂 😂 😂 😂

(report from other war thunder community + other account because vlemmy went dead)

It seems like I can’t view, or can’t see any content on this community on any other instance, only my account on Lemmy.world. Does anyone know why that is? I know the other instances I’m using are federated and I know Lemmy.world is too so I’m just confused why it doesn’t seem to be working.

Not a direct War Thunder post but I've migrated to Lemmy, I look forward to seeing thia grow!

We need more than 24 people here to make a functioning community on this site. Gonna be hard to compete with r/warthunder but I think it’s doable. Reach out to different players in game or discords your in to grow the user base!

Wanting to help promote growth in this community on this site so I wanted to start a discussion. What are your opinions on the latest batch of changes Gaijin implemented 2 days ago? Positive? Negative? Why?

Welcome!

This is the first post and i just want to highlight a few things for where you can find additional information about the game, but also some other stuff.

• War Thunder wiki: https://wiki.warthunder.com/Main_Page
• War Thunder CC / Streamer Decals & Twitch Drop Items Table: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fV6e_mRz1dfRBTlGEzoIsyRSPK-DBKJp1XnWXwfWz8g/edit#gid=0

Feel free to tell me if anything else should be added to the list.

Small snippet as to why Reddit is going downhill:

On July 1st, 2023, Reddit intends to alter how its API is accessed. This move will require developers of third-party applications to pay enormous sums of money if they wish to stay functional, meaning that said applications will be effectively destroyed. In the short term, this may have the appearance of increasing Reddit’s traffic and revenue… but in the long term, it will undermine the site as a whole.
