Q: When will we see the Soviet and the German ship branchs:

A: Currently in development.

Q: Why does the timer to reconnect the battle is two minutes? It’s not enough.

A: At the moment, there is no restriction for a premium ship in ranked battle.

During World of Tanks “Heroes of Siberia” tournament in Tyumen, the developers stated that there might be a Player versus Environment (PvE) mode with 50 vs 50 for each side.

“The information is subject to PvE mode development – Works on the battle concept is not only at historical battle, but also to create battles with 50 vs 50 or even more.”

The developers refused to provide additional information as for the next further development.

So, I just recently found something interesting when searching for multiplayer military flight arcade game, especially with combat helicopters.

HELIBORNE

Heliborne is a tactical helicopter multiplayer arcade game developed by JetCat Games studio, based in Vilnius, Lithuania. Currently, it’s still in Alpha development, so only invited players can participate in the early development.

Even if it’s still in Alpha stage, JetCat devs have already introduced the early gameplay of the Heliborne on 29-7-2015.

There are currently 2 game modes introduced in the game: Skirmishes and Best of Five Rounds.

2 Maps currently available in the game: Afghanistan and Vietnam.

3 types of helicopters are present: Recon, Transport, and Attacker.

Various bases scattered around the map and must be captured to gain victory points. You need a transport helicopter to capture, loaded with airborne troops, instead of a standard attack helicopter.

There’s also a gameplay review explaining the total gameplay of the Heliborne by eNtak:

This game is still in Alpha stage, so expect many changes during the development.

P.S.: The good ol’ days when playing arcade combat helicopter on PS1 and PS2 reboot 🙂

There is a serious complain by War Thunder players right now (especially American and German ones) about one of the recent updates released a few days ago, the Update 23.09.2015 (Server Update).

Update notes:

• Quantitative Matchmaking as described in our Developer’s Blog has been enabled for the following BR brackets:
  • Tanks: 6.7 – 7.7  and  7.0-7.7
  • Aircraft: 6.7 – 7.7  and  7.0 – 8.0  and  7.3 – 8.3
  • There is a limit of 4 top vehicles per team, except for the BR 7.0 – 7.7 bracket, where it is 6.
• The Battle Ratings have been updated to work with Quantitative Matchmaking. Details in the forum.
• Similar Premium and regular vehicles will now share the same Battle Rating based on their combined performance data.
• The Economy has been updated. Details in the forum.

• The shell type BR-471D has been added for the following vehicles: IS-2 “Revenge”, IS-2 Mod. 1944, SU-122P

The update notes were simple, yet so stronk that it can send a whole Tiger Army returning to their homeland. (lol)
