THE SHOOTING RANGE 288: Winged Lions Breadcrumbs / War Thunder

[@Snowaxe3D]

I like how they did Panzer of the lake, Nice.

[@philippey4918]

i wasn't expecting that lol

[@merkavamkivm3373]

Fun fact: the S-199 was infamous for shooting itself in the propeller.

I like all the historical improvements and realistic details on vehicles.

[@TheMetalheadQC]

There shourld be a game mode Warsaw Pact vs Nato .... or Axis vs Allies .... PLEASE War Thunder :(

[@Mystic-Midnight]

@@TheMetalheadQC There is Ground Sim for that but it's a bit scuffed for WW2 with Lend Lease

[@stevenhussey9228]

i love when Bruce or any one else talks about german or japenese planes cause i had a family member who flow in a b-17g and his plane was shot down 1 but he made it back to britian to get his second plane and he survived till the end of the war and thx war thunder for putting in the b-17g sincerly halojumpers

[@capable_secret4664]

I don't know why but Bruce's voice calms me down when suffering in War thunder

[@leinad3305]

Will we at some point have the ability to remove side-skirts, storage boxes, and generally customise everything that can be shot off, from tanks in the hangar as a cosmetic choice?

[@capable_secret4664]

This is good idea I want to remove Tiger 1/2 side skirt because it's look cool without side skirt exposed track

[@vinimtlegal7802]

Now you are a weirdo those provide extra protection

[@Razielmn]

Thank you Bruce, and tell the Gaijin Entertainment crews, you guys works so hard and thank y'all

[@TKSubDude]

Love the EC maps at high tier. Good to see you back Bruce!

[@slipperywhael1367]

Q: are there any plans for the near future to add more mid tier SPAA for the US tech tree? There aren’t many good options right now and there is a drop off from 5.3 I think? To 8.0.

[@ThaRealRizzo]

Still glad you’re back and feeling better Bruce

[@MechaG2]

Fan-freak'n-tastic! Loved this episode! ❤ I have a few questions I'd like to ask: -Back when the P-61 Black Widows were announced for War Thunder, Gaijin mentioned they plan on implementing a modification to allow players to lock it's turret forward as an offensive weapon. It's been quite some time since then, and we still haven't received it. Are we still going to get it? -Will the Type 2 Ka-Mi ever receive a modification allowing players to mount/dismount it's pontoons the same way the Type 3 Ka-Chi does? -When the S-199 is equipped with it's 2x MG 17 7.92 mm and 2x MG 131 13 mm MGs, it's unable to fire them independently. On the flip side, the Ki-44-II Hei Shoki is equipped with 4x Ho-103 12.7 mm MGs, but it's able to fire the pairs mounted in the cowling and wings independently from each other despite them being all the same type of weapon. Will both these issues be fixed? -Can we _PLEASE_ finally have the Ki-43-III Ko Hayabusa added to the Japanese Aviation Tree (as a Researchable Vehicle)? 🙏

[@sirbowserfelix9293]

I work with audio, so I'm a Huge Fan of the sound updates we always get, the new RWR sounds are fantastic and the tanks engine and suspension sounds great too. I just hope that we can get new lines and voiceovers for more modern vehicles. It sounds a bit odd to me to hear WW2 lines in MBTs, Jets, Helicopters and even Frigates. I can't wait too see when we will get an update on that, that's one of the things I'm looking forward the most.

[@alphanomad511]

Ya new voices would be awsome

[@theupsiloninitiative8894]

BRUCE, my friend, you’re back!

[@meesdoetregie]

Yeees, bruce is back.. we love you!!

[@PaveWayMA]

Bruce is back!

[@panthergaming7501]

It’s great to have you back bruce

[@DaleksInc]

Q: When are you going to let the Radio Operator/Gunner in Shermans, Panzers, etc. operate his machine gun?

[@DaleksInc]

I'd like it if you lowered repair costs in the upcoming updates. As it stands, they're ridiculously high.

[@vinimtlegal7802]

Good idea

[@nicholasleon7819]

This game has a lot of problems that are constantly pointed out by many people but I feel Gaijin doesn't get any praise when they do nice things. Thanks for the stock RWR, and what's more, thank you for fixing flickering thermals! I haven't seen anybody talk about this but for me at least, my thermals dont flicker on and off anymore.

[@Open_Pack]

*slams table* THANK YOU!

WELCOME BACK BRUCE!

[@benjaminbuchanan7151]

I like these videos but at the end they always answer questions that very few people actually care about and completely ignore the ones most people want explanations for.

[@jakubwyszynski570]

Happy to see that you've got better

[@dyllonhp_1026]

I hope in the future, war thunder Dev actually add aps (active protection system) or trophy system.

[@CloroxBleach0]

in case you haven't heard, it's getting added in the next update!

[@tomasdobias4897]

Well there are few things I would like to see being inproved for example textures with trees in longer distances look like a wall even when I am close and trees dont load Well then trees look like a pancake second thing is waves in ships battles those waves only look like those are moving but it should really look like small tsunami pushing to the side of the Big ship. This should turn a ship to the side so the ship will start to drown although nearby teammate should help that player to get back to the game. 3rd thing is to have better textures but I am not talking specifically. It is simply better to have better running and looking game. Helicopters in simulator and realistic battles should have their bases at longer distances so in higher BR with helicopters players will come when battle is in the highest Pressure. In lower BR of the helicopters players should be able to get to the Battlefield when IT IS most needed. Sorry for my english.

[@mobilegamereviewer.1936]

5:03 Meme time.

I'm glade your feeling better Bruce, I'm glad your back...

[@chargemannyn2918]

good video and good update, thank you snail :)

[@ImAFatCheezIt]

6:56 I have a question, what is that piece of metal on the front that raises up when soviet tanks swim supposed to do? Please explain

[@edwalmsley1401]

It disrupts the wave at the bow that could otherwise force the front of the vehicle down

[@pipsqeak7104]

I think it's stopping the tank from digging down into the water and drowning

[@ihac4568]

Bruce Is back!

[@pauljensen5699]

Welcome back!

[@SilverStarHeggisist]

Wait did I hear the snail actually gave golden eagles back? I'm guessing their bean counter got shot lol

[@439sparky1]

Q: Do aircraft bullets fly faster when shot from a moving plane compared to one that is stationary? And does it affect penetration?

[@l0rdcroissant]

more interesting and informative than some of the lectures I had to attend back in the day lol

[@samanaj3864]

I would like to see you guys add an option to choose what kind of ammo u want to load when you are in a captured zone and choose when to stop getting ammo

[@militaryhistory3872]

oh panzer of the lake, why is this game so good. Panzer: i think Bruce tops it off.

[@s.davidtrout3056]

With the hit mark change on your tank, I think it would be a good feature to alloy HE to get into the penetration hole left by AP. This would let you use AP to make a hole then finish with HE using over pressure

[@LaCostaNostraManoNeraKCMO]

Is there any chance to try out Submarines, in the near future? Sub-on-Sub battles and Fleet sinking. Thanks guys!

[@hunterwhite6845]

They had it as an April fools event way back, but I’d love to see them added along with modern ships.

[@IgorCh-j9u]

why don't they add more GDR machines to the German tree because so far there is only the BMP-1?

[@shuhratkessikbayev8886]

Nice to have Bruce back. Glad he's feeling well now.

[@granmarbg]

Hi there, Shugrat kessikbayev, I am really enjoying being back, and I am slowly recovering to my full potential, which is expected to be about one more month.

[@Mr_Burke507]

Q: Any idea of a masive map rework? A lot of maps are unfair for one spawn and too small for high br

[@jeffdunham4854]

Great idea

[@type_x_atm_092]

A question: How often do naval planes get matched up with maps with carrier spawn points??

[@sherlocksinha2435]

Quite rare but if you play props in air rb then you have the disadvantage of carrier spawn while everyone gets an air spawn

[@ODST_Parker]

Extremely rare, in my experience. I've landed on a carrier in Air RB maybe five times in all my many battles with naval aircraft like Corsairs and Zeroes.

[@birchtree334]

First game, F8U-2, no carriers Second game, P-38, no landing strip, just carriers

[@type_x_atm_092]

@@birchtree334 Lol that's Gaijin logic for ya.

[@pandoranbias1622]

Thankfully they never modelled the absolute worst part of the S-199, that fact that the synchronization gear was not designed for the Jumo 213 engine and would sometimes shoot off one of the propeller blades.

[@janoshvondach5866]

some ideas for effects: 1.tanks that have been destroyed but the engine is still functional should keep on driving/making enginesound for a cupple of seconds. 2. more wrecked looks when tanks are destroyed (more debris around the tank, hull maybe ripped apart) 3. updated cookoff animations 4. tank gunbarrel becoming a physical object after the tank was destroyed 5. only hatches where there was still crew inside should open when the tank is destroyed 6. more armor parts/other pieces falling off when a tank gets hit (some containers that are placed obticly or bags for crew/decoration parts) this is not critique, theese are just some ideas. ur game is allready really good. that would just improve it, and make it more immersive to look at.

[@Pekarbulka]

PLEASE put Scharnhorst to 6.7 BR, playing against it in lower or same BR ships is almost impossible. And battleships same, make them 7.7 BR and not 6.7, naval battles are almost unplayable these days.

[@AxelKuno]

I get what Bruce meant but dude you have to go for the leopard not because it is way better than the m48 (which it is) or has anything to do with your playstyle, but because it lets you unlock all the other leopards in the future which definitely only gets better and better. You gotta think long term when grinding the trees, trust me, I learned it the hard way when I as a rookie thought "pfft, I don't need the panthers the tigers are heavier and have bigger guns" suddenly I was stuck I couldn't research any leopards because they come after the panthers in fact I couldn't even get to the next rank because I hadn't unlocked enough in my current rank which meant I painstakingly had to play 6.7 (the suffer br of germany) until I had opened the first panzer 4's and almost all the panthers. I'm glad it is over :D

[@AsPlayBox]

Will crosswinds in War Thunder exist in the future updates, like it affects aircrafts performance and landing in a battle, naval and tank shell trajectories, and many other stuff?

[@BuckyBuchanan]

Question is the 57mm gun on the PT-76-57 the same gun on the T-34-57 and the ASU-57?

[@freddiejohames8332]

[@zsoltliszkay5922]

The S-199 gives me PTSD when I try to play RB

[@elfiebasic4870]

Panzer of the lake... what a marvel

[@ArsenyPro]

Can you give more planes overweight loadouts, like torpedoes for P.108A? I know that Soviet planes already have such things, Pe-8 for example.

[@cuttlefishrampant5241]

Are you guys planning on adding South African planes like the Cheetah or prototypes like the Carver? The Cheetah would be easy to implement, its very similar to the Kfir, which is obviously already in game. This would give the British air tree a better dogfighter, which it sorely needs.

[@matias.l9329]

Q: do you have any plans to introduce the Finnish CV90 variant (CV9030) as a premium or possibly as an event vehicle?

Why cant we unload shells from the breech yet?

Q: When will we the intro tank change? It feels like it's been the same for far too long.

[@madryczowiekwinternecie2145]

Hello, I have few question 1. How long do we have to wait for a full Israel tech tree? 2. Is there a chance for the WT community to get a better grind system? The current one is very slow and hard and I think making it easier would attract more new players and encourage the return of the older ones. 3. Why did you decide to add Israel to our game and not Poland, for example? Poland already has a lot of its decals that come from time to time with a larger or smaller event, but only 5 or 6 vehicles that we can actually play. I know a lot of people who would like to play such a PT-7 or TK-3. I would also like to add that Poland would not have as many copy + paste vehicles as Israel now has and that it could start from the first era, as every other country did so far

[@cillersbadass7590]

when will the repair costs be fixed?

[@diesel_man99]

The battle damage disappear after a few minutes. Fix this

[@lucasrodrigues2288]

We going to have SPAA on America BR 3.3 or 3.7

[@NotAbbyNP]

Why wt website are down They can't even load

[@Red_Four]

A common problem with tracked vehicles is that they can become mired in softer ground, and if turning too hard or pivoting, they can throw track. Since we saw in a recent update the ability to manipulate the terrain through use of dozer blades, will we see the terrain be developed more to react to other stimuli such as the weight of armored vehicles and their tracks?

[@CaptainRex5011]

Q: it says the ikv 91's are amphibious but they don't seem to be able to swim at all ingame? Why's that?

[@josjas7025]

It was able to swim but the feuture got removed from the game without any words from gaijin.

[@tigor2441]

Q: Why are there semi modern aa on air maps? Whenever I try to ground pound on the map bourbon island, the second I approach ground targets I die to the M163s. Btw I'm flying WW2 props

indeed the new jet engine sounds are amazing
