The Mach cone effect reduction does actually greatly help if you're flying a plane that likes to "straddle" Mach 1.0 - planes like the J-7E, F-4s with bombs or on stage 1 afterburner, A-5C/Q-5s among many, many others. The change makes it actually reasonable to aim your guns without being screwed over by the mach cone effect constantly, and I would really say it's a massive QoL change for the planes affected heavily by it.
I agree, as someone who is grinding the American air tree with the F-5C it was super annoying trying to fly and then having that mach cone in my face all the time because it stays at like 700-720 mph and I would have to slow down slightly but now it's fantastic to fly I don't get super annoyed flying it as much anymore
About the modification animations - on top of the mobility upgrades being visually identical, all animations for add-on armour are identical, even though it's really useful to know what sort of protection you're getting in return for that extra weight already displayed on the stat card. Some tanks don't have an animation for their add-on armour at all!
The bush changes really only affect someone who has the time to shoot off a bunch covering a weak spot. Otherwise, it's a useless change in regards to wallet warriors using bushes to their advantage. It still does nothing if you can't get the first shot into a weak spot, and it still does nothing against people who camp in bushes or hedgerows on any given map, making themselves damn near invisible to most people until they're already shot you or someone else.
The thing with the trees is that, yes they do move like that because of a strong wind, but real life you're mostly facing strong wind for several seconds before it goes back to normal, while in wt it's a constant
The bush change is actually usefull for me and my Sim mates. Sometimes you forget a bush in front of your optic and now your homies can just shoot it away :)
Due to the fact that the seeker was moved higher on helicopters, it became impossible to aim at the SB since the zone now does not coincide with the sight and it is absolutely not clear where it will be able to lock the enemy
@@rexxmen This is very stupid because while you tilt your nose down, you don't see the plane behind the beam, and at this moment it can fly away to another side, plus because of this it is impossible to launch missiles from low altitudes because you will constantly crash into the ground.
Because of the reactive trees my pc couldn’t handle WT anymore. I had to drop $500 and swap from a nvidia 1050 to a 4060Ti. Wish there was a way to turn them off in the settings, it doesn’t help the players with lower income or pc power.
on what resolution do you play. l am using gtx 980m and it still gets 60fps on high 1080p only map that is exception is Karelia becouse jesus christ there is enough moving threes to drop your fps to low 30 when flying a plane very low in ground RB.
@@seekerpro486 yeah, Im running an old web design desktop from like 2010 that I’ve been gradually upgrading from time to time. Guess more modern games just take more than I can give.
@@derpfin5145 As a "main feature" its REALLY low on the list in the patch notes post. It was literally on the bullet point above the 3D decorations which was included in this video. In fact it is not even mentioned in the TLDR section Gaijin has. "A vast amount of vehicles, fixes and anticipated Roadmap additions have now been implemented! Flagship jets: F-16C Block 50, Barak II and MiG-29SMT, plus jets for other nations. Italy has gained the Hungarian branch, which includes 11 ground vehicles starting from the Csaba and ending at the KF41, as well as 3 helicopters. The first South Korean vehicle, the VIDAR - which arrives as an export variant used by Norway - also comes to the Swedish tree! The visual effects of wind, smoke and ammo detonations plus more have also been improved, as well as a rank VI Bluewater and 3 premium Battleships have arrived. Two new maps, including the return of “Test Site - 2271”, are also here." They talk about smoke and ammo detonations there, but only about visual improvements. Not about being able to detonate the smoke cannisters on an enemy tank.
I don’t like the ability to shoot off decorations. It would have been fine if it worked for bushes only. As it stands if I get strafed by a plane my Tigor plushie falls off my cupola 😢
most stupid change in the update is that with the bushes. it is a punch in the face to everyone who purchased the bushes. now they are just useless instead of helpful.
Does anyone know what keybind it is for the missile camera? I've never managed to figure it out and there doesn't seem to be anyone else with the same question
Am just wait for the rp earn fix they doing the grind in the game is killing me so much want start a new country but just know it going to take me years to unlock it just kill the grind for it. But one day i will make it to top tier
I hope they improve the bushes again. I found that in matches, it takes way too long for bushes to be shot off and the enemy with said bushes has lots of time to just kill you. The time it takes for them be shot off should be a lot quicker if not nearly instant.
classic gaijin move, make people pay for a cosmetic only to "take it away" from the player base...just like nerfing premiums and other sleazy and honestly very low effort money grabs by this company...
tbh i think the camo unlock speed change is too easy. instead of 5 points per kill, it should be like 2 or 3. vehicles that required 300 kills before, now only require 60, which is just a handful of matches. (i also said this in the partner server, but it got downvoted to hell and back ..... maybe this is just a horribly hot take)
I actually hate the new tree animations so much that I am practically incapable of playing the gam. It's nearly impossible to see enemy tanks if they are near an area with a lot of trees because the extreme unnatural movement makes tanks basically invisible, especially if they have camo bushes on.

Ngl I feel like that T-2 “””buff””” was pure spite on Gaijins end
are we supposed to ignore how scuffed that kill at 3:25 was?
Yea I saw that and I was extremely confused as to how he ammo racked the infantry optics.

some animations are different tho, ive seen in some top tier mbt having different animation for each vehicle for their own armor add-ons

Yeah I was thinking the same. It's just reading patch notes.
Thank you for this. Since they changed the "image" on the stat cards from a picture to a 2.5D model, I haven't really played the game.
I'm sorry, but can we just look at the killcam at 3:26 please? That is the saddest ammo rack I've ever seen.

And then you realize you're in a bush rat and now all of your crew is gone

Missed talking about how you can now shoot the smoke cannisters on an enemy tank and set them off.
that is literally one of the main features of the update which like everyone knows it wouldn't make sense to put it in a "Things you missed" video.

Babe, babe, wake up, about thunder just posted
Are you ryanberry
He is
@@ballz6363thanks
I visibly saw the like counter go up, this has never happened before. What this is insane.
Now it just looks like every match is happening in the middle of a hurricane
My favorite part about these vids are the sarcastic tones. Overall good videos, keep it up.
Trees now look like dancing baloons. Really annoying when aiming and they keep getting in the way
The tree effect isn't too good looking but it add one good thing in WT : not all moving object are ennemues to nuke, you need to really open etes now
Even while being the dataminer, i didn't noticed some changes, like the mach cone effect.
very cool video
Hey thanks for using my T2 Swedish bomber detail :D
would be nice if the reloading checkpoint was actually freaking consistent, gaijin just can't make any shid consistent
Question.
Does About Thunder have different voice over people?
If so, who owns the channel?
Ryanberry
me crying with the F14A getting dogged on by evrything and not being able to do anything anymore.
0:40 Very bold assumption
Hope we get the 40m Nimrod and the Toldi (know its in the game but I wish they would make it as a non premium)
ngl, the camo unlock took me by surprise, i played a single match and unlocked some 400 camos lol
3:28 we not gonna talk about that ammo rack you got on that bradley??
Cant wait til they add the J21 ejection seat and wing drip tanks/incendiary bombs
If they can give us accurate helicopter huds and better gun fixes, they can give us updated tank sight reticles
Or atleast customizable tank reticles
yea... gaijin giving you watered coffee again. what about the grind?
trees look creapie.sholud be removed that wind efect
Trees be looking like they going thru hell
A few weeks? the next update is already in the dev server, that's a cupel more than a few
Not really no, it’s just that the new update came ridiculously quickly
The tree thing seems like the fish AI thing
Only missed the T-2 thrust upgrade...
Soo..I don't play WT a lot. What happened to the whole economy changes drama that happened a few months back?
good job mate!
I hate that they broke Drop bomb series. When you are in Weapon selection, you can't drop bomb series. WHY?
Lmao they actually fixed the sidam mistral! I made a bug report about that and was told it wasnt a bug but guess that was a lie
I don’t like the ability to shoot off decorations. It would have been fine if it worked for bushes only. As it stands if I get strafed by a plane my Tigor plushie falls off my cupola 😢
Bro when did they add the overheat effect of the barrels like those motherfuker were almost melting 0:19
if only they also made all the non market place camos unlockable with points
most stupid change in the update is that with the bushes. it is a punch in the face to everyone who purchased the bushes. now they are just useless instead of helpful.
I never noticed the Mach clouds mainly cause I can't see them
Does anyone know what keybind it is for the missile camera? I've never managed to figure it out and there doesn't seem to be anyone else with the same question
You have to hold down the button you use to fire your weapon, not exactly sure tho
Missile, bomb or agtm they all work for one its called bomb track camera. Search in aircraft controls
U is by default the weapons tracking cam. doesn't work / disabled with mclos missiles for obvious reason
wait so is war thunder adopting a new update cycle or is this just a one time thing?
they aways have an october update that coincides with the birthdate of war thunder, which is november 1st

User fixable scenario. Set your camo to default only an wait and extra 100 kills or so. For the rest of us it's wonderful.
