War Thunder Auto Cannon Nerfed - Update 1.29.57.0

Hello all,
While I was away Gaijin introduced a large update. Most of this is small fixes, with a reduced magazine loadout for some planes, etc. But the most important element, hidden at the middle of the list, was that they have nerfed the auto cannons: New heating parameters for large caliber automatic cannons M4, M10 and NS-37. Long bursts of more than 5-7 shells now lead to gun jamming!
I've only got very limited game time at the moment so I havn't really noticed this change, but I hope it is for the best.

 

The rest of the changes are as follows:

• Fixed: Air kills and assists counter malfunctions in some situations
  
• Render efficiency was improved
