War Thunder Update 2.57.1.67 brings a short set of fixes for Ground Battles, map layouts, and vehicle audio. Gaijin Entertainment posted the details in its Steam announcement. The listed changes target problems that could hide the nuke-aircraft switch, block a runway, remove a spawn marker from the tactical map, or make certain autocannons too loud.

The interface issue affected the action bar in Ground Battles. The button used to switch to the aircraft carrying the nuclear weapon could sometimes fail to appear.

Location fixes cover [Alternate History] Spain and [Domination] Palau Islands. On Spain, a tree and a house blocked the eastern team’s runway. On Palau, one eastern spawn point could disappear visually from the tactical map.

The audio change applies to the M61 and GAU-12 rapid-fire autocannons on both allied and enemy ground vehicles. The notes describe the adjustment as a response to excessive volume levels.

For context, the earlier 2.57.1.60 sound patch addressed Ju 87 siren audio and stability problems connected to sound modifications. Version 2.57.1.67 keeps the focus on bug fixes while reaching into the interface and battlefield locations as well.

War Thunder Update 2.57.1.67 Patch Notes

The biggest changes affect access to the nuke-carrying aircraft in Ground Battles, runway clearance on Spain, spawn-point visibility on Palau Islands, and the volume of two autocannons. The official notes are reproduced below in their original order.

Interface

A bug that sometimes caused the button for switching to the nuke carrying aircraft to not show up in the action bar in Ground Battles has been fixed.

Locations and Missions

[Alternate History] Spain — an issue where a tree and a house were blocking the eastern team’s runway has been fixed. (Report).
[Domination] Palau Islands — a bug where one of the eastern team’s spawn points could visually disappear from the tactical map has been fixed.

Sound

Excessive volume levels have been adjusted for certain rapid-fire autocannons on enemy and allied ground vehicles, specifically the M61 and GAU-12.

Gaijin notes that the patch notes cover only key changes and may not include every improvement. The developer also uses its bug reporting service, forums, and other official platforms when reviewing and prioritizing fixes.
