I tried to run the game myself and I have no problems at all, but I am running it with a nvidia card and not amd. It seems that there are issues with amd cards at the that game.

Seems you did not run it, with the suggested fix:

VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/radeon_icd.x86_64.json %command%

Add that to your startup options of this game.

Or run it with steam:

VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/radeon_icd.i686.json:/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/radeon_icd.x86_64.json steam

also add there AMD_VULKAN_ICD=RADV to switch from the default AMDVLK vulkan driver. Sometimes it has better performence and work better, but it depends on the game.

If that does not work, then consider to file a bug report here: Linux - War Thunder - Official Forum

VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/radeon_icd.i686.json:/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/radeon_icd.x86_64.json steam

this one worked.

VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/radeon_icd.i686.json:/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/radeon_icd.x86_64.json AMD_VULKAN_ICD=RADV steam

and the second one also worked, with better results ( no hiccups and freezes during the game )

Over many years I only had this happen once, and the reason was because steam was outdated compared to some libraries on the latest update in manjaro, so setting steam to beta solved it.

unfortunately the solution only worked for one day. steam would crash the moment warthunder tries to authenticate through it. sometimes i am able to use the web based authentication to play the game, but steam is effectively dead, both flatpack and native

Well, then report it to the devs of war thunder on the suggested forum. I would rather say it is a problem of the game…
