Very cool black-screen crash after a game, Gaijin.
I just think it's neat.

>>483393174The direct Pershing derivatives are some of the best looking tanks imo
>>483393458They are.
Did they smooth out some of the hills on Campania?
If the Soviets had anti-gravity technology's in their Yaks, why were the earlier models getting BTFO so hard during WW2? Surely, Gaijin wouldn't incorrectly model the flight path of a russoid prop, right?

>>483395991here>>483395115
>>483395115>why were the earlier models getting BTFO so hard during WW2unironically because the soviet air force had garbage pilots, just read up on how the finns fucking slaughtered them just by knowing basic fighter maneuvres and tactics, soviet pilots were like headless chickens
>>483395991>>483396067I was playing the J26 though? Fucking yakgroids never make a fucking sound until they're already shooting you. Kill yourselves.>>483396281That makes more sense I guess. I still think they perform way better in WT than they did IRL, but that's true with a lot of planes probably.
How come the Zero has a significantly higher rip speed and locks up far less at those speeds than the Yaks?

>>483403359racism is only allowed on /b/
>>483403359>>483403525when are they tuning severe damage? surely they've noticed by now that almost every plane can enter a death spiral with people only getting hits and crits creditedsame shit with fire completely disabling someone but you only get an assist out of it because a chink chased it into the earth from 5km up there absolutely are times when someone catches a fire that WILL not go out before the plane is dead, so how aren't they coding that to consider it as a kill? this game is atrocious a lot of the times and it takes way too long to get fixed, if ever

>>483410965The buildings are fine, you can join any custom battle on an Air map in a tank and see for yourself. Some trees are fine too, as seen on the left of this screenshot, but a lot are severely oversized for whatever reason. If they're too lazy to alter the tree assets, an easy way out would be to just count trees as ground for multipathing purposes so it works over trees just as it does over flat terrain or water. The pinnacle of laziness though would be to just disable collision with trees but I don't think they're THAT lazy.
>>483411392I'll laugh if they disable collision for SOME trees

>>483419593>60 m multipathing should stay BUT trees should count for multipathing or their height should be brought in line to a more reasonable 10-15 mI think you vastly underestimate how much work gayjin are willing to do.
>>483419593>And the sucker punch to all the mutts gloating about their superiority:>>would you have liked 60 m multipathing in the R-27ER meta?yes I would have because I also have Russia grinded so I would have just played that instead
>>483419882It can't be that hard to scale down trees.
>>483420104Making them count as the ground is probably a lot easier since you don't need to alter the actual assets in any way.
>>483420185Sounds like it would be quite taxing on CPU to add all those variables for ground level data to the average thirdie chimps laptop. Unless you just had a bunch of trees all neatly at the same height then you could just increase the ground level to that.
>>483420523>Unless you just had a bunch of trees all neatly at the same height then you could just increase the ground level to that.That's what I was thinking of, if you align it to the height of the tallest tree in a given forest. Not the ACTUAL ground level but the ground level that the radars see.Besides, it's just boxes, can't be THAT taxing since only the immediate surroundings are taken into any given calculations.
>>483419593I agree with these bullet points
suicide bombing just isn't satisfying if the bomb isn't mounted on the centerline
>>483419593>would you have liked 60 m multipathing in the R-27ER meta?Americans worship niggers and can only think in the moment. We didn't have 60m multipathing during the AIM-9M meta, so they'd be confused by the question from the start.

How do crew skills apply, if you have less crew than normally.i.e. radio operator is a thing only during ww2
>>483441760It always takes average
I've spaded and aced the F-15C, I really like it. But I was surpised on how much I loved the AV-8B+ this patch. Honestly, ACM locking targets and slinging AMRAAM's at people, then dropping GBU's on people is amazing fun. I can't wait for the Hornets to arrive, if the AV-8B+ is anything to go by.
it's tied to the radio station module, not a specific crew member
>>483441760Average for Agility and Field Repair. Everything else only applies for the individual crew members the tank has, so skilling vitality for the radio operator is pointless if your tank doesn't have one. Skills of crewmembers that are not present in the vehicle (for example loading without a loader) are taken over by other crewmembers and are still important to level up.

They wouldn't add such a marginal upgrade as a separate vehicle, what's more likely is that they'll convert the SM into the SM3 like they converted the 9-17 into the 9-19, especially seeing its lackluster performance this update.

>>483453195Just because they look the same doesn't mean they aren't massive upgrades, specifically F-16A ADF to F-16C and MiG-29 (9-13) to MiG-29SMT (9-19). And it's exactly why the SM3 won't be added as a separate vehicle - it ISN'T a massive upgrade, it's just a pair of pylons and slightly stronger engines, a 15-minute tweak in the files.

>>483372446it actually way overestimates the F-15's performance, the F-15 absolutely cannot sustain a 12g+ turn at 22 degrees a second at 1,000km/h, that's beyond fantastical. I don't believe for even a second that the Su-27 can either because the claim is just so outrageously absurd.

FUCKING WHEN?
>>483458275>No, why the fuck should a hundred or so KG of HE going off directly below you not kill you?Because it's designed to blow up mid-air, slamming into the ground at Mach 3 won't produce the same results as a controlled proxy fuse explosion specifically engineered to target planes.

>>483459697yes, but what radarif it is a rangefinding radar, there is no display for it and it just adjusts the gunsight
>>483456608have this f15c-msip v3.2 with the completely new aim120a-1a-1/a1, it turns 0.27 deg/sec faster and is 0.2 km/h slower than the normal a version. that will be 450k rep, 1.2kk silver, and another 6 months of your life waiting for the patch itself
>>483458028Every single planes performance is overestimated, in real life planes (and pilots) can't go over 10gs even for instantaneous turns, in WT everything from Zeros to Gripens can hold 15gs all day.
oh Anton...
>>483459289its either a rangefinding radar, or in the case of some of the later aircraft (MiG-23 family especially) the soviets opted to stop using cockpit radar screens and instead have this very advanced (for its time) integrated radar display that shows you all your radar modes, selected missiles, ranging, and firing solutions right in the HUD. This was in the mid 60s, back when the Phantom still had nothing but a gun pipper on its HUD.
>>483460976>Soviets did it all on fucking vacuum tubes>mutts couldn't do it period before the crutch that is microelectronicsgrim
>>483461903the vacuum tubes were for a reason.Even after microelectronics, certain high powered soviet radars (such as the Smerch) continued to use vacuum tubes due to their sheer power volume (microelectronics of the time wouldve been fried) and as a safety measure against EMP from a nuclear blastone unintended side effect was how much more powerful than intended these radars ended up being. Export Smerch systems in Syrian and Iraqi MiG-25s were reportedly able to burn through the ECM on Israeli and US F-15Cs with bruteforce raw power alone. The US had to upgrade the ALQ-131 specifically to counter the MiG-25's raw power.

>>483464964My understanding has been that it’s generally service date used for these sort of comparisons, which would peg the MiG-23 to early 70s
>>483464709sure, but it's also higher rank and looks less bad because the fuselage doesn't have that weird shrinking after the inlets.looks matter to me, and the f5 series lacks it.

If someone is saying that China ground is better than USSR ground, they are probably a coping retard and it's best to ignore them, correct?
>>483468579USSR ground is effectively dead and Gaijin will add a billion prototypes with fantasy performance and irrelevant sidegrades like ERA on the mud flaps to copeChina will grow to be the largest ground and air tech tree in the game
>>483458353>it was so good the US barely put them into service and dropped them as soon as the P-47 and P-51 were available
>>483468579They say so because they're already familiar with most vehicles and their concepts, naturally performing better as they climb up the chinese tree.
>>483468579having played chinese top tier, I don't understand why people think it is so good. their tanks feel very fragile. getting one shot from the front is very common, I don't understand why to ever play them over japan, at least with japan you have a crazy autoloader while getting 1shot by everything you see

>>483502571What do you mean what?

>>483509094I took a hiatus specifically around the times of the two events you could get the PakPuma.But I got the PakHanomag
>>483509203it started at 2.3 or something similarly criminal, it was just WRONG and felt so right
>>483509094it belongs at 6.3 since it's a better M18
>>483509372>open top with a gun fixed facing forwardsdon't you have the same thing at 4.3
>>483509349>it started at 2.3The fucking pakpuma was that low before?
>>483509513I don't think so but it was 3 point something. It was always a higher BR than the regular puma.
>>483509513it wasnt that low but it was criminally low, yeah
>>483509608>>483509647It's crazy to me that the normal Puma was 2.7 for so long. That's the same BR as the fucking Italian AB 43, and was lower BR than the 6pdr SARC.
>>483503883how bad can you be
>>483509816now just hold on, the AB 43 is an absolute beast if you know how to play itit's even moreso now that the puma got bumped up
>>483509886The AB 43 is good, but it's not and never was Puma tier good.
>>483510021it's extremely good AND fun, it's just the puma was excellent
>>483509816When it came out, gaijin's code for wheeled vehicles was kind of ass and it was squirrely as hell to drive. That held it back a bit at first.
>>483510431Gaijin still doesn't have wheeled vehicles down today, can't imagine how bad it use to be.
>>483510567>touch steering>spin out of controlPuma was especially bad because of the all-wheel steering.
>>483510567i'm fully convinced they didn't even touch anything regarding the R3s besides giving them a top speed
>>483510567>Grinded all of Italy last year from start to finish>Freccia came out>Got Freccia>Spaded it from stock playing nothing but it because spike meme was new and I got a LOT of spike kills because people didn't know what the fuck they were>Around that time Gaijin fucked with wheeled vehicle traction>To this day, the freccia feels like absolute garbage because I had already played hundreds of battles in it before they fucked up wheeled vehicles>Now I hate playing it even though it's undeniably fine, just feels like trashWheeled vehicles will be outsped by russian MBT unless you're going downhill in a straight line it's crazy. They over value top speed and undervalue acceleration and steering when they consider things because people miss one shot and go WAHHHH IT WAS GOING 20% FASTER THAN MY OWN TOP SPEED THAT IS SO OVERPOWERED

Which is better, AIM-120A or AAM-4?120A can pull a few more Gs (35 vs 32)But AAM-4 has 20 seconds more guidance time and more explosive.
>>483516078AIM-120 continues the trend of american bias and blows all of the other Fox-3's out of the water and it isn't even close.
>seconds away from losing the match>get hit by bluenigger spaaggot>j out 19 milliseconds before the round ends
>>483516183and it's underperforming (no smokeless motor)
i4w?
>>483518095uptier is going to be roughonly 60 countermeasures and 2 AIM-7FI had to resort to base rocketing after the recent patch to grind towards the F-15J(M)
>>483518095Fantasyshit
>>483518292I heard that 12.0 usually gets downtiers now tho. I already have the F-15J and that thing is rough right now.
>>483519789I've been playing the F-16AJ for the past few days, you'll get uptiered to see 13.0 AMRAAM flingers over half the games you play. At least that's my experience with it.Before the patch the AJ was the king, now it's either you're still a god in downtiers or you might as well roll over and die in uptiers.
>>483518095air past something like 6.3 is basically unplayable so probably nothing great.
Things should be only realistic when it suits me.
>>483520042Kinda funny how they add one fucking weapon system to already existing aircraft and it completely ruins top tier.Crazy that the F-16A variants don't even get AIM-9Ls stock, just 2 AIM-9Ps. I cant get a single kill, how am I supposed to get RP stock?
>>483521045You can still play assault air (for now)
>>483522128Yeah but that is full of non-stock players with full missile loadouts making it impossible to get a single kill with my two rear-aspect only missiles and 500 cannon rounds.Also its AT LEAST 10 minutes of queue time. May as well shoot at AI in real RB games.We need another chimpout to make Gaijin make the stock grind at top tier easier. This shit is impossible. AT LEAST all aspects by default at 11.0+, preferably at least two radar-homing too.
>su-100 still rips shitThis little nigga has carried me so far, one of the oldest and best talismans I've got
>>483522690I don't think it's that bad, I played a few games yesterday and the day before with the F104A. Had no problem getting kills, came in first 3/4 games. 30+ air kills with just the cannon. Lots of assists. It's arcade, don't think so hard. Charge head on, you're fast.
>>4835230523.7 to 6.0 is such a fun range compared to topslop
>>483523272And btw, head on 100% for air assault. That's the one direction the AI won't fire. You'll be on top of the whole group if you get there first. Cannons rip everything to shreds.
>ruin mig-23s flight model>make MTI half broken>fucking flares don't even make a sound anymore when deploying What was Gaijin thinking
this patch is just another Red Skies, isn't it? bless you Anton, what a wonderful patch.
>>483524602the MTI was actually just made to work as it’s supposed to, instead of massively overperforming
>>483525081So you agree the mig-23 should go to 11.0 then?
>>483524602>What was Gaijin thinkingpush update out as soon as possible must stick to update cycle or hype diewe can fix it later
>>483525164mig-23 is already 11.0?
>>483525518the good one
>>483525606why would you want to uptier the mig-23bn from 9.7 to 11.0??

>>483527630>Literally the main tool for killing tanks for every strike aircraftThere comes a point where Tanks would cease to exist.

>>483527630does rassia have cluster bomb? no? then not needed/not work/useless in game
>>483528097they do actually, they were the first to use them. Something like 10,000,000 PTABs were dropped in WW2
>>483528097Retard, not only do they have them but they get them WAY before everyone else with PTABs.
>>483528298>>483528310this of course means the simultaneous implementation of contemporary Abwurfbehälter for which there was a 91mm 4kg charged HEAT submunition, droppable in clamshelled clusters of 40 from a 250kg bomb shackle, right?
>>483488331It might get HOT-3s and go up in br so it can be used in top tier
>>483529617No, neither will ever be added because they're the only two of their kind in WWII and gayjin don't like adding brand-new weapon system to only a few nations, let alone permanently leaving everyone else empty-handed.
>>483529617yeah I'd love that, this isn't a "gotcha" I want them for all nations
>>483530030>I want them for all nationsThat's the problem and the official stated reason they still haven't added PTABs: no one other than the Soviets and germutts made them before the war was over.

>>483531275Those are extremely limited in capability/quantity and virtually inconsequential overall. PTABs would instantly become by far the deadliest ground attack weaponry before standoff munitions while being absolutely ubiquitous.

>>483545502Ok, bad wording on my part, should've worded it differently from the start: "literally no one said the R-77 would be better than the AIM-120 in the current multipathless meta". That much IS true as all of your examples (only two of which are mine and all of which are now void because the context that led to them being made was flipped on its head) are dated to when multipathing WOULD, in fact, have made even the current-state nerfed R-77 better as range and energy retention mattered a lot less than raw maneuverability and instantaneous pull in an environment that featured nothing but furballs and sub-10 km range engagements.>inb4 "cope" and no arguments
>have a really good game>next few games radar fails to pick up clear targets, missiles do random turns and don't kill enemies on a hit, if they ever hitthis is so fucking rigged

>>483460976>>483460030>rangefinding radar do they do anything other than tell you how far the enemy is?
I hurt the feelings of the Chinese People :((
>>483552470They don't even do that.All they do is adjust the piper to account for the time of fight of the Shells to the range of the target.So now all you need to do is both hold the piper over the locked up target, and maintain constant G loading. if both a "true" the shells will hit.This is an improvement over the earlier system since you don't need to input a known reference wingspan, and set a fixed on the gunsight to get accurate predictions.

>>483552851
>>483555982None of this has ever worked in WT btw, at first the rangefinders weren't implemented period, then when they got implemented the sights were never properly calibrated so the rangefinders were essentially worthless and now the sights are back to not reacting to the rangefinders again.
>>483556209It definitely worked for some period of time with the F-86A-5, I haven't flown it in years. But it was only implemented in first person.

>>483551762>only mentions the "better pull", which still holds true.>trusting statcards>everThat's not enough handholding for the gluttons. In game the AIM-120 pulls harder because the mutts absolutely positively need every single advantage handed to them on a silver platter.
>>483557679
Is the AAM-4 underperforming? They just seem worse than AIM-120s, and I don't see many people using them.
I still remember when the slavtranny said the tranny-90m would give rasha 100% winrate and then it turned out it had 43% lmao

behead all sweden players
>>483558171Everything is just worse than the AIM-120. By a lot. The competition isn't even close. It's like R-27ER vs Sparrow disparity except this time it actually matters in the meta because we don't have strong multipathing to cuck all radar guided weapons.

>>483559995Meh only thing I might be interested in are black shark and apache but I don't know how to chopper.
>>483559701I'm waiting for late hour AI lobbies, unless i roll some comfy dailies when they reset in an hour or so.
>>483560138I would consider the PG02 nigger crok. It takes me like 1-2 hours depending on if I want to try or not.But I remember doing one much earlier with US boats like the Tucumcari and the tier 3 PTs and it takes about 3 hours.Boats is fast and all it takes to do good is get one of those 8 bots two player matches.
>>483560105you can grab my pp
>No GE vehicle saleIt's over.
>>483559995mehA-6 TRAM worth it or should I just wait for a tech tree one?
>>483559995packs only?
>>483559995Surprised the tornado is on sale so quickly, though there's nothing to look forward to in the germutt air tree right? Exception of the eurofighter of course.

>>483560708You get the A6E for its GBUs at 10.3 , if you just want the A6 because it's a A6 than just wait. I fucking despise gaijin for making it a pack prem
Has anyone ever gotten one of these that's not complete garbage? There's even a sale going on right now.
>>483560867Planning to get both of em too, the J35XS even nerfed is still pretty good from what i heard and the mirage works somewhat? And that's all i need really. Also it carries magic2s which is nice
>>483561234Isn't it 10.7 in GRB now? Either way, the AGM-123 Skipper lets you outrange most SPAA you see at your own or lower BR now.
>>483561234No not really, I've caved in though sometimes when it's some shitty low level meme vehicle and I've got loads of GE
Shit, this >>483561427was intended for >>483561027
>>483561284>the mirage works somewhatNot really.>dogshit flight performance>SARHs that are more hungry for chaff than non-IRCCM IR missiles are for flares>can't even replace them with another pair of Magic 2s
What is my strat in the 9.0-9.3 G.91 for Italy? Just grind until I get aim-9's? I feel like these jets are way too high in BR.
>>483559995>ka-50 saletime to bring my ITO up
>>483561694Don't play them. They're complete garbage and get an unfavorable matchmaker. You have the MiG-17PF in the same techtree which comfortably sits at 8.7 and shits on everything it sees in terms of flight performance.
>>483561623just base bomb then collect 2 free magic 2 kills
>>483561027>>483561427yeah I was more wondering how well does it handle the current br and such and if it was worth the moneyI tried the 123s on the dev and they didn't seem that impressive (they were probably just broken at the time)is it any good in air battles? worth using as a grinder?
>>483562138>just base bombNo, never outside SB.
>>483559995Getting the Challenger 1 DS. What else should I buy?I have 132GJN
>>483559995Worth it? I need to grind the Soviet tree and the only planes I like are Su-25 and 27. and IL-2
>>483562219>is it any good in air battles? worth using as a grinder?It's workable because a lot of your opponents are lobotomized, but it obviously does significantly worse than a dedicated fighter.
>>483561427>10.7fuck i forgot about the new ratings, but yeah it's still good.>>483562219>air battlesWouldn't recommend it but you can make it work somewhat, you'll prob be food to fighters though. You'll also be competing against A10s / SU25s for bases. Really i don't see this plane used much in ARB, people get it mainly for CAS.
Which flavor of purgatory do you guys recommend for rank 6 Japan ARB? I just got the sabres I don't know where to go next.
>>483562227Depends on what else you want to grind. My other fave premiums on sale include, Mig 23ML, T-55AM1, T-72 Turms, F-5C, A-5C. Click bait is on sale too and is good but you'll get retarded team mates. If you want to grind out Britain air to go with your challenger I found the F-4J(UK) to be very good as a base bomber and you earn shitloads of RP and SL doing it, but the gameplay isn't great.
>>483562906F-5E FCU and fucking FORGET these and the F-4EJ exist at all.
>>483562906Spade your ladyboy.
I think I'll just get the first two, I still haven't committed to France or the UK but I have to both Sweden (long ago) and Japan (recently with the F-5E FCU talisman, which I got over the Sea Harrier one). Besides, there aren't any more options for a Swedish premium jet but there certainly are for a Belgian/Dutch one.
>>483562221that's on you for leaving RP on the table then
>>483562906The T-2 is pretty good but the F-104J and F-1 suck ass. If you want to suffer (or don't want to purchase the F-5 or wait 3 months for squadron research) you can use the F-1 to research the F-16AJ since there's no research penalty. You can also use the T-2 to grind the F-4EJ but Phantoms are notoriously shit so you'll probably spend your time bombing to the F-4EJ Kai, which is better, but still a Phantom.Basically, get the Thai Fighter.
>>483563051>>483563307>>483563661I thought squadron vehicles were all bad? But I guess compared to these anything is great? I think I will shill out to avoid no flares I seem to need them even with baby mode retard missiles.
>>483563463>Belgian/DutchI just got the mirage, with how gaijin treats france i think it's going to be awhile before they drop another prem jet for em. And then theres the matter of waiting even longer afterwards for prices to be halved.
>>483563753The F-5 is amazing.
>>483563753>I thought squadron vehicles were all bad?Some are but some are great, the F-5E FCU specifically is an absolute godsend for a tree that desperately needed it by far the most (TWO unplayable ranks, ZERO playable premiums).
Japan is going to be the next sweden aren't they? Once SEA subtrees and maybe even korea are added of course...don't think the gooks will be too happy though.
>>483563661You can make both the F-104 and the F-1 work.The real ass pain begins with the F4EJ and becomes unboreable with the Kai
>>483562275It's extremly good in air superiority role, grinded almost all the tree with it and it was easy. But now they are changing the BR of strike aircraft so it might change. I would pick it up
>>483564101We still don't have Jap rat cars, O-I or the TKX APS prototype.We will probably see Thailand next year. Which besides generating chink screeching when the Jap VT-4 get's added won't change much for the Japs. Maybe it will fill some gaps at 4-6 BR.
>>483564293It seems much better than the A-10 in ARB, plus funny nuke rockets in 10.3 GRB
>>483564205The EJ Kai is actually really good now that it doesn't see top tier, and 12.7 is eternally stuck with 13.0. Worst it sees is F-14s. It has a good kit and most engagements don't end up in a 1v1 anyway. It is way better as a grinder for Japan than the F-16AJ.
>>483564541The Sparrows are really bad though and the radar set is not that good. And other nations have Aim-9L busses at lower BRs.I found the F-16AJ functional enough to grind 100k this BR to finish spading it. But every match was a downtier against premium tard.
>>483564101as of now it doesn't look like they're interested in adding anything but the bare minimum to make a comically bad high tier at least bearable, so i don't think so
>>483564973Don't jap top tanks have a 4s reload? No armor but still
>>483565140oh yeah nip tanks are good but i was talking about the air tree
>>483565140Japan has the best high BR line up, 11.0 (+0.3 if you hate Kamovs)And an okay top tier.They also can make lin ups from 7.0 to 9.3 with ease.The only shit spots are the 6.0s because the STA is dogshit and 10.0 cause it doesn't exist.
>>483564101Maybe if Japan gets the F-2 while no one else has AESA? I don't really see how otherwise.>>483564205I think for most new players those two will be completely unbearable, which was my experience.>>483564541>>483564825F-16AJ gets quite a few uptiers right now but I think when people get bored of the patch it might go back to downtier heaven.
>>483559701First game of the day.What a joke, should be 300k.
>no 10.0 mutt lineup (ground) >still want to buy the a10fuck
>>483564541>>483564825Haven't actually played em since the update, but I already before it 11.7 was the best br by far, 80% of games were 11.3 premium spam and now that multipath is lowereed, the EJkai probably performs even better against the absolutely cucked Mig23 and F-4s hordes
>>483565487That doesn't stop all the other A-10 owners.
what's a good air prem on sale for mindless grinding and good money?
>>48356548710.3 US is pretty good, but the tech tree A-10 is better
>>483565816None of them. GE low Tier Jets are much better for grinding silver and those still aren't as good as premium ships.These are mostly noob traps and are only good for high tier RP research.
>>483565816a5c
Why does no one buy the Abrams despite being superior to the Mohammed 2?
Premium Mirage F1... already have all of France ground done.. should I bite?
what's good on the salei already grinded out most nations air TT in terms of props I'm not huge on tanks yet
>>483567174No, France is very likely to get a far better premium plane in the near future through the BeNeLux subtree.
>click wrong CC decal/discount referral (I already have their decal)>have to wait an hour for the ongoing referral to time out before I can select anotherfucking why

>>483567445Yeah but even if that isn't vapor I'd still need to wait like a year before it ever goes on saleis the F1C a good grinder?

>>483568938i guess you hate RP
>>483567286Nothing really
>>483569138I hate being useless to my team and completely screwing up my positioning for the part that actually matters - A2A combat.
How bad is the J-7D?
>>483569245>completely screwing up my positioning for the part that actually matters - A2A combat.But base bombing literally puts you in the perfect position, take a wide route and you'll come at the furball from the back, where no one on the enemy team is watching.
I assume this is against bluewater ships, not coastals, right? What a pain in the ass.
>>483569682Any naval target.
>>483569682No
>>483569682Nope, just play coastal in general.
>>483569862>>483569871Oh, thanks, neat. Not bad then.
>>483569245>>483569485So what's the consensus is it a good grinder or not? I'm at rank IV france right now and want to reach top tier.
>>483570000it's alrightthe flight model is not as bad as the bombing retard makes it out to be, the radar missiles are mid and the matra muzhiks are warcrime tierit's alright
>>483569457could be worse, you'll win some dogfights against retards with it but it is a pretty subpar airframe for 11.0 PL-5Bs are still decent they accelerate fast and you can sling them from almost 4km away as long as you aren't super slow or firing at super fast enemies, it only being rear-aspect hasn't been too big of a detriment in my experience, they're somewhat flare-resistant too but not enough to count on but you're pretty much fucked in an uptier, still worth 35 yuroyuan if you want to muck around in it once in a while but probably not a good grinder
>>483569146yeaaawas the sw*dish dorito any good in terms of its BR?there's also the US jet and tankbut I guess us teams are ass
My first Ace, no GEs. It's like KV-1 but better.
forgot to addI did grind up to the 109 >>483570165
>>483570140ah thanks. It would be for grindan the tree, I want russian planes but I don't wanna get a mig-23 and I don't care about german planes much with the lazur
>>483557147Leopard 2a7 is betterT-80bvm is like the 4th or 5th best, what makes top tier Russia stronk is the supporting elements like the Pantsir and Ka-52
>>483420026I'm sure that sounds like a gotcha to you but really you just explained how much you like the taste of penis and what color you prefer.
New.
>>483572161epic fail
>>483565359lmao arcade naval, you fuckin suck dude
>>483570293>like KV-1 but betterit's got far better firepower, but the KV-1 has retardedly trolly armor half the time
did they ever give a reason for sweden getting the strv 121 (leo 2a4) and a strv 121b (leo 2a4) and a leo 2a4 (leo 2a4 but finnish flag)
Did they implement the forward bases for attackers? or did they abandon that idea
>>483572821That's to be implemented some time after the update, it hasn't even been a week.
>>483572083fpbp
>>483562275I already have the TURMS. I might just wait for a GE sale to get anything else Russian ~10.0Not interested in the F-4J(UnK) on principle, as it has no AIM-9Ls in spite of never using older winders in service.I’ve finished bong air apart from the stuff added in Seek and Destroy anywayMight buy the American stuff since I don’t play them yet
>>483572821i missed this, are they gonna give attackers even easier targets?
>>483573314Yeah but they'll be moved 0.3 BR up in return.
>>483573062Ah ok I just double checked the newer roadmap and thought they were trying to hide it quietly or something. Good to know, maybe my Su-7BMK will be good again>>483573314They are gonna spawn at the foward base in ARB, so still no airspawn but at least you can get to ground targets before catching a missile (except it's actually just gonna be a pre-match where all the attackers CQC with all aspect missiles and tons of flares)
>>483573395>>483573745oh, it's a top tier thing?i thought they were shafting the already dead, buried, exhumed and cremated bombers at prop BRs
Didn't ask.
Hold up. What are "ships"? Damage to other coastal vessels doesn't count?
New bread when?
let this be the last one
