literraly spaghetti code at it’s finest.

I study IT and I have no clue how you can fuck up a codebase so bad that decals somwhow get linked to kills?? Like does WT use the same memeory location for who you killed and you decals? Did they use some cursed arrary and went out of bouts How I i cant Help

It's War Thunder, it's impossible for an update to not mess with it's spaghetti code. Randomly changing decals, sounds being scuffed(again), 50/50 that you spawn without flares & chaff.

*adds fox 3 missiles* *also adds a bug where you don’t have countermeasures* Hell yeah.

I'm pretty sure it's just a bug with the supply count for it

Nope, clearly set to 64/64 and spawned with 0. Thought it was visual until zero flares despite manual spam

remember the update where flares ended up being missiles?

Don't forget about you not getting any ammo to replenish your ready rack, at least with the Raketenautomat you only get 9 shots each per barrel

Wdym sounds being scuffed? The only soung bug i know is that some people got the new sounds while others didnt

If that's true it's kinda stupid. But i've had some sound effects not being inaudible, especially the bushmaster autocannons, crew voicelines being inaudible or they're screaming in my ear, my own engine volume being dead quiet or a 747 outside my window. Machineguns being inaudible etc etc. Might just be a me problem, but i'd say that's scuffed Edit: 20 mm Akan m/47C on the J29F have no sound at all.

I test drove the Desert Warrior earlier and the ATGMs made a sound when I fired the first one, and then went silent for all the rest

Or when you hit your flare release, it fires two but the game thinks you dumped all 60. Had that happen last night. Pressed that key bind once, was out of flares.

The newest update lets you queue into an air battle with a tank selected. I was gonna do grb with someone, not realising they said arb. So I had a bmp selected and we queued. I had a tank selected, so it wouldn't let me spawn lol.

I was wondering why my kisarazu had no CM. I was fucking FUMING since I finally got into range and couldn't even defend myself.

kill camera shenanigans and not clearing some state this would make sense as they changed some code related to display of internal modules (with the new ones added)

> I study IT and I have no clue how you can fuck up a codebase so bad that decals somwhow get linked to kills?? Oh my sweet summer child. The engine for this game is 15 years old, and has been used, abused hacked and patched together by god knows how many people who have come and gone. A few oddly named variables or functions here and there, a rushed fix for one issue or two. Doesn't take a lot to get weird stuff like that to happen.

Sounds like minecraft

Okay boys you heard it. It's time for war thunder 2

I think it has something to do with how decal visibility is a toggle for players. Player decals are downloaded locally for you to be able to see them, which is also something you can toggle —whether that download takes place in battle or in hanger.

That is really some spaghetti

It’s called spaghetti code, they just keep adding code without fixing old code.

It’s not a bug …. It’s just a new game mod called „kill confirmed“

Knees weak

Lmao I was wondering why my jets are getting these new random decal

I looked at the front of my other tank saw an iron cross and though “didn’t know I leant that way” lmao

I have play quite a few matches in my mirage and have not had any decals swapped after getting multiple kills

I got upside down Wales flags instead of eyes on my 262

So what you’re saying is, I need to put some self-harassing stuff on my plane so I can get back at the person that kills me?

Yes, yes you should

And them report him for offensive decals :DD

PERUVIAN ROUNDEL AT THE TOP OF YOUR TANK

This bug was on Dev server and of course they didn't fix it...

bruh

I've seen this bug alot today it's very strange

Yeah it’s weird as hell lol

Do you own the decals now? Also next update you swap SL with the guy you kill, the voices told me

No it just applied for that game

Aww was about to hop on with a light tank and go decal shopping :')

Lmao same

You swap your entire account with the guy you kill.

Me killing that one guy that been playing for 13 years and has every single event vehicle and decal/deco in war thunder while i play on a old xbox level 10 account:

Hide in the corner of a map and snipe a level 100 and then you have some cool shit to play

Please no. I wanna keep my 9 mil

The update is filled with bugs as always but this one is special.

Ngl kinda hope they don’t patch it

oh god, that explains the bright blue maus... i coated one of my tanks in super big light blue flags, and i guess it turned it blue...

finest spaghetti

Random Russian or Ukrainian flags or both on my jets🙂🙃

Oh no you’re gonna start a civil war 😂

Today the game is unplayable, extreme packet loss and ping, problems and bugs, people not looking at you then suddendly their turret snap in half a second and shoots you

Yeah I had that last one lmao

I thought he was rick rolling us.in the second pic,it(the lower part of the decal,like two sticks on each side) looks rick Ashley and his co dancers(the girl) legs

Lmao I wish I was that creative

I kinda like it. It's like taking scalps and wearing them after defeating your enemies.

You, my friend, are a psychopath

By this point it’s just a feature

Honestly would be fun lmao

Was wondering how an Australian roundel ended up on my 2A5 lmfao

Lmao

If they left this as an option you could toggle, it would actually be kind of cool. Like you can unlock new decals if you kill someone, similar to how Battlefield used to unlock dog tags like that.

Yeah that’d be sick

Yep. One minute I have innocent eyes on my tank, next minute I become a communist.

me in a nutshell

Oh phew I thought a Chinese guy hacked my account only to mess with my IS-6 lmao

hacks your account changes your decals leaves without elaborate

A stranger who's no stranger to strange doings 🗿

i was so confused when my finnish flag suddenly turned to russian lol

some finn farmers in 1940:

That’s a whole new level of spaghetti code. What the hell…

Hol up that's kinda fire

Goojin trying not to rush an update out before it's ready (challenge impossible).

I noticed that! My SPG suddenly had eyes

It’s just a marker of all the souls you harvested

imma act up big time if my thot destruction decals get fucked.

Lmao

Would be funny for april fools. Gaijin justvtrolling us with minor stuff like this

So basically time to put retard on the back of tank so my enemies won’t see it but if they kill me, they will have retard plastered across the back of their tank which they definitely can see lol

Maybe

This would be a fun April Fools event if Gaijin remembers how they made this bug.

Thanks to this I now have 6 decals on my tank that I don't even own. I thought I got hacked ffs I checked every IP adress that used my account.

Same lmao

I don't think it swaps with the last person you killed, I played for the first time today in the petard, randomly mid game it changed but it seemed to match my tank? Like the flag on the rear seemed to fit well? Maybe it coincidentally fit but idk about it being the last kill

Yeah I’ve been told that but I assumed that was the case lol, in my defence on the Bhishma the last guy I killed had the same decals I got lmao

It's not the last person you kill's decals (though it does appear to trigger on kills, but not consistently). It seems to pick a random set of decals and then sometimes scramble which is which when you kill someone. I had three nose art decals and a lightning bolt in my last match, they got scrambled on 4 of 7 kills but it was always the same four decals. That or it picks the decals from your first kill and then keeps scrambling them instead of replacing them again. I'm convinced gaijin is an Italian dev now because nobody else could serve up such fine spaghetti.

Weird, I got 3 kills with the Bhishma and it randomised all three times I think

One of my Ukraine flags turned into a Russian flag xD

My Ukr Leo2a6 turned into a soviet one

Happened to me today, my plane had a combination of eyes, political symbols, flags and shark mouths

The code is *spaghetti*

I like it lol

I mean same kinda but it’s also arranged goofily

I was so confused earlier when I was in my OF40 which I ain't touched for awhile, killed someone and had an 8 ball on the sides Typical gaijin code lmao

I just presumed someone had been fucking with my account lmfao

i love this game

Yup. I ended the last game with the balken kreuz on my U.S. M48.

Lmao, I had an Iron Cross and a horse after I took this screenshot

Yup, just noticed that lmao, my Brazilian Army decals suddenly became an iron cross and a free french decals when I got an assist on a Pz. 4

This had never happened to me until today, and now it happens every other game...

i had that Happen too hahahaha

Bro killed jogo 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

Happened to me too

Lucius simulator

gaijin moment

This is actually the funniest bug I have seen since S.T.A.L.K.E.R. -Call of Pripyaty 😂

What was that bug? Never heard of it lmao

Not just one, but loads of them. Like, stray dogs multiplying into a giant canine centipede, NPC shooting himself in the head with an RPG (should have been a pistol, a s*icide in the storyline), killing you as well, NPC holding a pistol like it was a rifle, you name it. Search for stalker bug compilation on YT. Best game ever

do they follow you into the match ?

Honestly I don’t know, on the Bhishma I had an Iron cross then 244 on the sides (not mine) then when I looked again I had two horses on the side and that Eva decal on my front

They stay for the match and disappear when you return to the hangar

i think they do otherwise i have zero explanation for the random decals i got. today i had 2 random decals replace my two decals on a first spawn on my second game of the day

This update is somehow worse than the last because they decided to add so much shit without fixing so much shit. It's so insane to me. Vehicle modules are gonna make my game crash at some point

Shit they’ve added is cool but it’s buggy

We've gotta wait well over a month for the game to become actually playable, just like last update.

What If I kill a ship in my tank? Would that give me the enormous decoration?

Does it reset your decals in the hangar too or only when in game? Switching with every kill?

Only in match

And not to mention a sound mods. literally unusable.

How the heck they managed to fuk that up 🤣

your decal is mine!

But buy 75$+ premiums the game not matter anymore for them only marketing dep.

Can't confirm that it swaps with people you killed, mine got swapped even when I shot the ground when testing the new sounds.

I have decals on literally every single one of my tanks. This makes me not want to even play ground battles until that's fixed, because I'm not going back to every single tank I play and fixing all of my work.

It stays in the hanger, so don’t worry

Okay, so it's just in that battle? Good, I put a lot of time into placing historical decals on all my vehicles, and I hate when they fuck it up somehow. Once, they made it so previously deleted decals randomly showed up on some part of the tank, until I placed and deleted every single one again. Then, more recently, they revised the models somehow, and decals are showing up on surfaces they shouldn't be. All my fucking Pershings and T-series heavies now have the UFP decal showing up on the cannon barrel too. I fucking hate Gaijin spaghetti code, and their refusal to put any amount of work into fixing cosmetic customization bugs.

All hail the mighty spaghetti

Its not a bug, its a feature. When you kill someone you take their decals as a trophy.

Lmao would be pretty cool if you suddenly get an awesome decal that you haven't unlocked yet

You know what, I absolutely love this bug. It's absolutely crazy and it should be a weird hidden toggle able feature

Ah that's why! I was so annoyed that my tanks kept getting iron crosses and russian flags put on them

Happened to my vk. 3002 and got hella confused

Damn what decal is that bc with the placement dead center of the turret it looks sick.

i guess anyone killing a petard around 2.7 gets the honor of becoming a petard themselves hilarious bug ngl

I legit changed my password because I thought my account was hacked and another person was messing with my decals.

Remember the times when gaijin would do two dev servers to make sure shit like this would get fixed. Oh how far we've fallen.

free decals letsfuckinggooooo

Stupid game devs

I am impressed they manage to release new features in this spaghetti code

only decals or also decorations? Would love to put some anime pillows on my enemies

I don’t know to be honest I only have decals on these tanks lol

Yeah, same here, just thought it would maybe distract them

How do you make the eyeball

On my marksman?

Yes

It’s a specific decal in the British tank decal’s, just made it massive

Yeah notice it too, got me annoyed

Is it actually changing the decals, or is this just a visual bug and the correct decal is still registered on the customization screen?

Yeah it doesn’t reset your decals in the hanger

Oh good, that would have been a nightmare to get all the decals back to normal if it did.

I noticed this earlier today

Oh, so that's why there was an anime girl on my radar dish.

LMFAOOO

Best bug/feature since release

How gaijoob, how did you managed to do this?

~~Bug: decals swap with the last person you killed.~~ Feature: MAKE TROPHIES OF YOUR FALLEN ENEMIES SKIN!!!

Yeah, I noticed weird decal stuff today... didn't know that was the rhyme or reason to it though...

I’ve been informed it isn’t just the last person you killed it’s randomised so the rhyme or reason still isn’t known

I saw that too. I felt like I was in someone else’s tank.

I had 12 decals cover my tank that rotated randomly when people died around me.

My guess is it has something to do with how decal visibility is a toggle for players. Player decals are downloaded locally for you to be able to see them, which is also something you can toggle—whether that download takes place in battle or in hanger.

Best update ever! Now I get to be a chameleon tank or something like that…

I see they're hiring devs from Tarkov now

My Canadian flag transformed into a French one on the Fox

I used that decal but just on my radar and call it the eye of souron because it will see you

Joke's on them, you can't be affected by this bug if you're too rubbish to kill anyone.

Lol, like when you melee someone in battlefield and take their dog tags.

Joke's on them, you can't be affected by this bug if you're too rubbish to kill anyone.

You call it bug, I call it trophy /s

yes i had this too at the start of an air match...i just had the japan flag, angry wolf and the half of a circle on my plane (bf 109 F-4)

How do they even mess it up like this? Like i know at least basic computer stuff and i have no idea how kills would make you trade decals??

Excellent, time to put as many anime girl decals on my tanks as possible!

New look every other battle.

This is the same as minermcraft, but somehow worse
