War Thunder

Update 2.33.0.161

Posted by Blitzkrieg Wulf on



  • A bug where severely damaged enemies finished off by allies did not count towards progress for tasks, wagers, challenges and battle tasks etc has been fixed.
  • Severely damaged enemies finished off by allies have been added to the “Destruction of aircraft” item in the battle results. In the “Finishing off” column, the value “By another player (no reward)” is indicated, making it easily distinguishable from your own destruction of enemies.
  • A bug that caused the client to crash on Ubuntu 20.04 when running via Steam has been fixed.
The current provided changelog reflects the major changes within the game as part of this Update. Some updates, additions and fixes may not be listed in the provided notes. War Thunder is constantly improving and specific fixes may be implemented without the client being updated.
