Infantry confirmed for War Thunder

[Omega Sirius]

Today. IGN has published War Thunder's trailer for infantry. This alone confirms it.

We don't know how infantry will be implemented in War Thunder, but it's here to stay.

The question is not if, it's when and how. So the debate is over.

Let's start discussing how Gaijin will implement it in War Thunder. Honestly, this might be a deal breaker for some people. Depending on how they implement it, it should be a separate game mode. Could you imagine if they gave infantry squads available to stuff like BMPs and BTRs? What if you could actually deploy them from compatible vehicles?

Very interesting topic indeed.

It means you're going to get RPG-7 spam.

That doesn't confirm anything. That confirms a website shared the same video Gaijin already did.

6 Days of April fools for you huh?

So all the misinformation and incorrect articles doesn't dissuade you from believing this...

They got their beta test claim from the April 1st announcement that says this. So no, its just someone at IGN not paying attention to the date.

I hope it's a real Squad style infantry instead of merely controlling ai bot

you are in Minnesota going by your steam profile mate…

Steam is showing that in your local Timezone, which is a not insignificant amount behind more than half the planet

the same post shows 1st of April for me

I find it absolutely hilarious you are hanging your hopes on the timestamp of a post in your local time being a few hours before April first

Even if you were right do you actually believe that if they somehow posted the same thing a few hours earlier on another platform it magically makes it legit… despite their own website saying that news came out on April first

IGN also gave Concord and Snow White a 7/10. I wouldn't call them a reliable source. Rather wait for the Snail to tell us directly.
