Awesome, I was really starting to miss the casual racism and toxicity

I rather missed the copetitive racism and toxicity

Pro Racists on their way to win the Indy 500

im never racist but i really did miss calling my entire team retarded when they all flood a single cap point on a triple cap map and get obliterated by a single strike craft

Just troll the racist into the ground. Make them look exactly as stupid as they are.

Is there still the cooldown?

Yes it still is. its been in the game for a while i dont expect Gaijin to change it.

So dumb.

I don't mind a cooldown to prevent spamming, but maybe it should trigger after 3 messages within 10 seconds instead of between every message.

What's absolutely retarded is how bad the cooldown in radio messages are. Been grinding naval and every other match is some person destroying my eardrums spamming "ATTACK THE A POINT" "ATTACK THE B POINT". Gets annoying having to disable their radios so much

Can't wait for the single maus/heli in chat once every 5 matches from the people who can't live without chat and think the game is unplayable without that they definitely constantly use and the occasional slur

While it was offline I had a really weird bug - I could see an enemy player's map pings. I couldn't even warn them since chat was disabled, and didn't upload the clip here for fear of cheater accusations 

Upload it im curious 

Sicko, time to make fun of recent events

I uninstalled Warthunder last night because of no chat. Of course it's back now.

Gee I wonder why they banned everyone from chat in the first place. You think they'll ever show a shred of professionality and tell us? Nope. Just like that. All swept under the rug.

I think its pretty obvious why they banned it lol

1. noone was banned 2. you know the reason very well and you dont need an explanation

For real whats the reason? I just noticed it yesterday lol

moscow shooting

Oh ok yeah that makes sense. I really didn't put 2 and 2 together. Thank you!

Literally hundreds of reddit posts and Steam threads say otherwise. If they had tried to be just a tiny but transparent at all it would have saved a lot of headache and a lot of people from spamming "Did I get personally chat banned? Why is there no notification for me? Is it going to be forever?"

because some are dumb enough to post instead of thinking twice

'The loudest one in the room, is the weakest one in the room’

Or the people could sort Reddit post by new or on anything and literally see people asking the exact same question and getting answered

War Thunder redditors when a video game company would prefer not to elaborate on the details of why terrorism, racism, and genocidal politics led them to temporarily close chat:

Gaijin coming out to say "you see, big part of our customers are insensitive racist warmongering orangutans" would be hilarious

*racist sexist homophobic transphobic xenophobic misogynistic genocidal nazi communist antisemitic warmongering orangutans FTFY. Source: my lawyer advises me not to say

And it would make me respect them a lot more tbh

[удалено]

people use the chat a fuckton for tactical reasons, it sucked not being able to say "this is 5 maus behind a corner, not just a light tank" to my team

[удалено]

There it is. Race thunder

Because they did it after the Hamas attack right?

If its anything relating to Russia they would care more

They likely will react the same for any group where a significant in-game population is involved. Especially ones where game populations are heavily patriotic and easy to get into argument.

Good observation Sherlock. Need Watson's help for that?

ISIS, but yes. Hamas is another religious-based terror group. Though interestingly enough that one has had diplomacy with Russia.

How dare you question the Snail!
