War Thunder’s major content patch “Red Skies” was just released. While there are many new additions to the game, some bugs have become quite prominent, and those needed fixing. Fortunately, developer Gaijin Entertainment obliged with a new update.
Update 2.7.0.35 (09.06.2021) is now available for all platforms and it fixed a lot of bugs introduced in Red Skies.
First of all, the driver skills have been improved dramatically. You see, there was a bug where the driver could forget to switch to the right gear, making the vehicle move slower than it should. That has been fixed now!
Many users have reported frequent crashes after installing the Red Skies update, particularly when downloading additional content from the hangar. Fortunately, the devs were quick to respond and addressed these crashes.
While the aforementioned fixes were retroactive, players can expect new things from the update as well.
