so bros will the 70 euro packs go on 50% off in december? If so I might pick em up if I can afford it (depends if i get christmas bonus shit or not lmao) 35 for the prem time + vehicle + 2000 ish GE doesn't sound bad at all
>>503231843Probably yeah, unless they're fairly new
>>503231843golly gee if only there was someplace in this thread where this information could be found
>>503231843>>503232035perfect example of the sharp decline in player IQ in recent years
>>503230968I'm sorry you're a NEEToid virgin
>>503231843reminder that if your purpose of buying premium vehicle is to skip the entire tree it meant that you have to be playing that same exact vehicle for hundreds of gamesso think carefully with top tier air premium it isnt that bad because ARB only required you to bring one vehiclein GRB you basically will be one dead leaver for god know how many games
>>503232734I kinda want it to help grind out the more frustrating part of the US tree much as i like the early shermans they feel pretty bad, armor isnt that great, gun sucks, think the shermans start being good 6+ could be wrong tho
which ground tree should I try next? ive gotten as far as id like in US, Germany and Russia. Not touching Israel or Sweden, btw.
>>503233540>not touching israelwhy
>why wont you grind a tree thats 1/3rd Magach

>have suspicions about naval being rigged specifically against me>dealing 99% of damage and getting no kills>guns on target and range, still get straddle shots because shell dispersion only affects ME apparently>super rare chance most shells from a salvo hitting - barely any damage registered on my scoreboard>spawning late and getting targeted>sailing behind the initial wave, there are blue enemies 3km closer to the enemy than me - still get targeted>AI gunners set to aircraft and never shooting until they're within 2km and the bombs are already falling>on the rare chance I spawn a plane myself I can't get within 5km without getting shredded even by flying erratically>shells rarely hit ammo rooms, I see them get black but no huge explosion, meanwhile any shell that lands close to my shell rooms immediately blows the whole ship apart>matches ending early because the enemy destroyed my coastal speedboat and thus we never got a single cap - the enemy coastals never get targeted by my "team">streak of horrible matches; <5 kills, metric fuckton of assists, constant losses, the works>next match>not doing anything even slightly different>keep aiming and shooting the way I always do>get 3 magazine detonations in a row>all shots landing on hits, multiple modules disabled>AI gunners open up on plane, pilot snipe it - still let it get too close to me but the bomb barely did any damage>blue enemies do their job of soaking up damage but not landing hits which allows me to rack up damage and therefore score>do more damage in this match than in my last 4 combined>still lose because nobody cared to cap even with 2 uncontested and 1 abandoned but it doesn't matterIf there was any doubt about Gaijin not fucking with me for some weird reason then it's definitely gone. There HAS to be some sort of SBMM on top of team and gun rigging on their part for me to get nonstop punishment and then suddenly have one compensation match without me doing anything different.

>>503241863soviets could actually compete with american gear, but idk if thats true for modern russians, fairly sure f-35 mogs anything they have except maybe on paper instead of reality, everyone's buying that shit for a reason
>>503245924f-35 is severely outranged by russian missiles, missile range and speed is one area where russia has an advantageit's also unclear how useful stealth really is in 2024yes it gives you godmode against non-superpowershowever, there's papers published on using multiple low-frequency radars at different positions to triangulate the position of stealth aircraft down to the centimeter scaleas to whether that actually works in practice is unknown, but in principle it canand there are other intangibles like jammingthe only thing you can say for sure is the US can definitely make a lot more planes than russia if it chooses to

>>503249458is that ULQ?don't you get framedrops when using it and looking at trees?for some reason my iGPU handles Low better than ULQmaybe ULQ uses older graphics API calls, who knows
Why do 30mm revolver cannons sound so fucking weak? It's likely they accidentally gave them SMG sound effects.
>>503249620loli is 4chan-core, its kinda classic and its just drawings that don't even look anything like real kids, not a lolifag myself just saying, when u bring real kids into it it becomes awful
>>503249629Yes it's ULQ and no frame drops. I have a decent comp but for RB battles it's required because every nerd is using it. I also like to hit 144 fps for my monitor refresh rate
>>503249773>s just drawings that don't even look anything like real kidsYeah okay you coping pdf fag
>>503249773This holds true for anything 2D vs 3DPD btw. Cheese pizza or not, it's all equally repulsive.

thank you for deleting that shit, janny
>>503249813>it's required because every nerd is using itIt's no longer 2019 sisthey changed the way ULQ works and added a separate "object render" distance slider. You can just play on Movie and have that slider all the way down and you get the benefits as if you were playing on ULQ back in 2019nowadays ULQ objectively doesn't give you any advantage other than worse visuals
unironically we need to bring back gulags/labor camps for those people
this is easily one of the worst generals on this board
>he's still goingguess we mindbroke the burgerc*rd xister
>>503250553ULQ still has better overall clarity. Ultra is like someone spread Vaseline on your screen.

>>503251753ULQ shits shimmers and jaggies directly into your eyes, it's beyond dogshit for clarity>>503253404>turn off SSAAretard, SSAA 's whole point is that it removes all the visual noise from aliasing without having to blur anything, you want it on at all times if you want your game to maximize clarity
>>503253367wonder what is the stealthiest (radar-wise) plane of ww2probably something tiny with very little cockpit exposureso ironically for that pic, maybe a komet
>>503254160Ho 229It being stealth by modern standards, or even just by design, is a meme, yes, but its RCS IS quantifiably smaller than that of its contemporaries.
>>503254160Mosquito, by virtue of having the least exposed metallic surfaces. Ho 229 if you count protoshit.
Why don't more people transition to air sim?ASB EC, >solves BR compression >solves uptiers>buffs bombers>buffs strike aircraft>buffs BnZers>you can SELECT maps when you create a new lobby>you can switch between different planes on the fly>very high skill ceiling due to a lack of an instructor>very high skill ceiling due to not having perfect sight to spot your opponent>PvE is no longer suicidal and actually kind of relaxing (especially the border conflict ground units)I am not grinding anymore. I just play my favorite WW2 planes.
>>503254160Kikkas by a long shotno radar could, or can, detect them
>>503254618>no mouse aim (instant filtering of 95% of players right there)>no markers (it's bad enough in tanks and it's even worse in planes, I play sim but only at top tier where that's barely an issue thanks to radars and RWRs)>forced cockpit view
>>503254618EC is a shit format and abandoned by the devsany popular IL-2/DCS pvp server is better than SBECWT SB's only redeeming quality is that if you're into an obscure plane, you'll probably onyl find it there
>>503254818jesus that sounds awful, shan't be playing that, arcade is the only way to play air imo
>>503254818>forced cockpit viewseeing my plane/tank/boat doing cool shit is 80% of the enjoymenthopping into cockpit/commander view every now and is also very nice, but i want to look at my vehicle
Lads, not gonna lie, luchs kinda assacceleration and hill climbing just fucks it up
>>503254818>>no markersI play Tunisia often because it's small and its lack of terrain features makes it relatively easy to spot planes. I also re-roll my own lobbies until I get clear weather, because clouds just don't belong in ASB.>>and it's even worse in planes,It's really not. Pre-missile era engagements happen at very close ranges and the game marks players a little after you're in gun range.>>forced cockpit viewThat's a good thing. Situational awareness is an important aspect in air battles that ARB skimps out on with its markers and unrealistic visibility.It also nerfs turn-fighters, which are usually the top dogs in ARB, but the underdogs IRL.>>503255358>>EC is a shit format and abandoned by the devsAll game modes are abandoned by the devs.>>any popular IL-2/DCS pvp server is better than SBECASB strikes a great balance between realism and casual PvP compared to DCS.Never checked out IL-2, though.
>>503254818no markers or significantly reduced range of them would make every plane viable in arb
>>503231118
wish this game's DLSS was not dogshit coded by slavsdlss is such a good feature
>>503256921For real, it's literally just free FPS in virtually any game it's in, even in MSFS 2024 (another flight sim with tons of small details). Yet here, it's somehow a pixelated nightmare - the one thing DLSS is NOT supposed to be.
>>503257275DLSS sucks if you have a 1080p screen :(
There are SO MANY tech trees they could have added, yet they added fucking ISRAEL which can't even fill all the ranks.Imagine an Argentinian tech tree, VGH...
>>503257349it's great on my 1080p screen, idk what you meanyou are probably just seeing warthunder's DLSS implementation being smeary broken shit
>>503257368>Imagine an Argentinian tech tree, VGH...Can't have that, Sw*d*s would chimpout.
>>503257349In this game it sucks even at 4K. Like I don't even have to squint or get close to the screen to the the pixels, meanwhile no matter how closely I inspect MSFS 2024, or any other game with DLSS, it might be just slightly blurry or lacking in details (not to a degree I'd care), but never, NEVER fucking pixelated like I'm just downscaling with no filtering whatosever.
>>503257368israel is a country with a huge successful martial historyargentina? are you serious
>>503257576Like wtf is this shit? Just open the pic in fullscreen and it'll become OBVIOUS. How do you fuck up a ready-made solution THIS bad?
>>503257275DLSS is akin to console locking framerate to 30 FPS. Great and fine if you're one of the people that don't notice any problems with that. Dogshit if you're one of the people that notices the artifacts/framerate.
>>503258537I notice the problems with it in no game BUT snore blunder. Why they didn't bother to do anything about it, not even in the very update that all but makes it mandatory if you want to run RT, is beyond me.

How shit will it be?
new UI is good, the UI looked very dated
>>503262451the real question is for how much less than the Jag IS it'll sell
>>503262451gonna get it anyways since it's an actually unique event plane
>>503260531He should be careful of what he cleans it with. Some cleaning solutions can damage monitors screens.
>>503254618For better or worse I enjoy RB controls and flight models. I just wish that we had RB EC. Love the big maps, but hate the deathmatch in a phonebooth format of air RB.Regarding nametags I like the system that's present in ground RB. Enemy nametags are hidden but friendly nametags are visible.
>>503262451>legitimately unique prize>with kinda decent CAS optionsway higher than Jag IS for sure
fuck XP-50niggersa failed plane with only 1 prototype built has no right being that much of an UFO
>>503262451Depends on the BR. In the thread yesterday someone mentioned that the noteworthy weapons that it receives are the R-60, K-13 (an AIM-9B clone), the Kh-23, and one of the mavericks.The A2A missiles and the Kh-23 would be at home in the upper 8.X to the 9.X ranges but I fear that the maverick TV guidance might get the thing banished to where it will be shit.
>>503262717It'll be higher than the Jag IS. The Jag IS is just a tech tree GR.1A with Magics, and a badly made mishmash of Indian jaguar versions because gaijin were too lazy to make any effort getting it right
>>503265615>posted from my 109 that is also in space, nobody else is supposed to be here!

So if the next WWM is the Iran-Iraq war, this is a good list of things to grind?
>>503267338if the next WWM is so, then may it be a prelude to Pan-Arab schizotree, it is needed
>>503267643I do not think that is correct, the last WWM (not the test) already proved they could mix trees for a line up with the (2) AMX light tanks from France working perfectly with US tanks and jewish planes in one line up. However I CAN see the snail being so jewish as to dump a TT right before a WWM so no one but paypigs have the vehicles unlocked in time
>>503267338the Iran/Iraq pages of history challenges are usually things like Chieftains, M60s, BMPs, ZSU-57, Shilkas, T-72A, T-62, AML-90s, F-5s, MiG-23s, Mirage F-1s etc.
>>503267643The Thai and Romanian subtree are effectively guaranteed for next year with Swiss as a possibility for Germany if need be. I doubt we will get the arabs and I don't know where they would go.
>>503268564example
>>503268521>already proved they could mix trees for a line upthey just added amx-13 to US TT for the event's durationthe idea that wwm is a prelude to the shitskin tree is peak delulu though
>>503266585swing and a miss, nigger
>>503268564>>503269308Thanks for sharing. Next time I'll cross reference that when looking for a WWM line up
>>503269460subtree delusions are probably the funniest rabbitholes if you're ever bored on the forum

>look around map>see 16 red names hovering over all objectives maybe 2 blue namesWHAT THE FUCK is happening in these games? It's a red fuck ball and my team is nowhere to be seen. They aren't intercepting enemy bombers, they aren't escorting me as I try and get this 109 off my ass for 3 minutes and dive towards the bombable base seeing fucking nothing, they aren't capping the airfields, they are just... not there. The entire enemy team is though.
did they fuck with the mig-21 bis or r60ms? it just doesnt feel right anymore at all since like 2 days ago, cant do shit anymore when i usually did 2-3 kills per match at least
>>503272934It's not quite as bad as it looks. I swear the game prioritizes rendering red names over blue names at times. So sometimes the blueniggers are actually there in the fight but the game just isn't showing them to you.But yeah, blueniggers are fucking retarded a lot of the time. Sometimes it feels like the voices in the walls are telling me that there is skill based matchmaking and the game is trying to make me lose. I had another one of those games last night where I had a great sortie with four kills. I was returning to base to resupply and checked the scoreboard to see how things were going. Obviously my four kills is a substantial blow and should have tipped the scales towards a win for my team. No my teammates were all dead with fuckall kills between most of them.

I didn’t know it was possible to be this bad
>>503289815I was gonna say he's right about air before I read the delusional naval take.
>>503289815chermany saffers ;_;
>>503290780I just don’t know how you look at something that will run you a free 10 k/d and say it’s weak. Especially compared to a standard battleship. Maybe because Tennessee is the first US ship that doesn’t explode if Scharnhorst looks at it?
Join lowiq we don't discriminate
>>503291485I don't know if there's enough naval players to go around to have people that make it to top tier without having a modicum of understanding of how to play their ship, but the speed of the Scharnhorst compared to the WW1 crap would probably allow bad players to close the distance quickly, at which point the Scharnhorst becomes pretty easy pickings.
>trying new test drive>fly top tier jet over no fly zone with HUD off>try to dodge missilesholy shit, how do pilots IRL not shit themselves when they get a launch warning? most of the time I can't see the missile coming and just use the RWR to try and notch
>>503291851They probably do? Not like we get a lot of recordings of this stuff. I can only think of audio of an F-15 pilot dodging Iraqi SAMs and the Su-34 crew dodging Patriots and those guys definitely sounded scared bordering panicking.
>listening to old CoD Zombies easter egg songs>raping the horde of premium planes with the intellect of insectshell yeah
>>503291648It certainly loses a lot of the scare factor at whatever range the other ship is reliable able to land turret and barbette shots I agree, though if they were half decent they’d be able to leverage their better fire rate and dispersion doing the same back against most ships. It feels like in the last year or so I’ve seen a lot more bad players queuing Germany and Japan especially post Mutsu, similar to how Kronshtadt quickly attracted a terrible playerbase. Italy and to a much lesser degree France seem to be the last nations giving consistently good teammates at top tier, though the latter are really let down by the quality of the ships currently.

>With the camp under fire, Alessandro had no choice but to order, as a last resort, a cavalry charge with drawn sabers and hand grenades against entrenched infantry. Alessandro then ordered the 2nd squadron (over 100 horsemen) to attack the Soviet left flank. Under the command of Captain De Leone, the squadron began a winding maneuver through a gorge, succeeding in engaging the Soviets at the left end of the front, outflanking it and storming it longitudinally with drawn sabers and hand grenades.>Corporal Lolli, unable to draw, as his saber was stuck in its sheath, charged holding high a hand grenade; Trumpeter Carenzi, having to handle both trumpet and pistol, unintentionally shot his own horse in the head Some horses, even though riddled by bullets, would keep galloping for hundreds of meters, squirting blood at every beat, suddenly collapsing only a while after their actual death. After having crossed just about half of the Soviet line the strength of the squadron was already reduced by half, and the commander himself was grounded.>32 cavalrymen died, including the commanders of the 3rd and 4th squadrons, 52 were wounded. Well over 100 horses were also lost. The Soviets left behind 150 dead, 300 wounded, 600 prisoners (including some Mongolian platoons equipped with Italian uniforms, which had been taken from the Sforzesca division), 4 cannons, 10 mortars and 50 machine guns. Shortly afterwards German liaison cavalry officers arrived. They were deployed at the left of the Savoia and they had witnessed everything from the neighbouring heights. They expressed their wonder and admiration for the anachronistic episode to Alessandro, saying: "Colonel, these kinds of things, we cannot do them anymore".>A much-loved and much-honored survivor of the Izbushensky charge was Albino, a horse which, though blinded in the battle, lived until 1960.
>>503310251nta but it’s at least a hair splitting thing when it comes to naval history. Generally the longest hits in history are considered to have been made by Warspite and Scharnhorst, though O’Hara believes Massachusetts may have taken the crown if his research into French records for the battle of Casablanca is correct. However if you consider shells that did not directly impact a ship but landed close enough to damage it after exploding the record goes to New Jersey against the destroyer Nowaki followed closely by Yamato against one of Taffy 3’s escort carriers, I forget which.

>>503311601In March 1944, Hartmann, Gerhard Barkhorn, Walter Krupinski and Johannes Wiese were summoned to Adolf Hitler's Berghof in Berchtesgaden. Barkhorn was to be honoured with the Swords, while Hartmann, Krupinski and Wiese were to receive the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves (Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes mit Eichenlaub). According to Hartmann, all four of them got drunk on cognac and champagne. On arrival at Berchtesgarden, Hartmann was reprimanded by Hitler's adjutant for intoxication and for handling Hitler's hat.

He refused to confess to these charges and conducted his own defense, which, according to Hartmann, the presiding judge denounced as a "waste of time".>In his account, the Soviets attempted to convince him to cooperate with them. He was asked to spy on fellow officers, but refused and was given ten days' solitary confinement in a four-by-nine-by-six-foot chamber. He slept on a concrete floor and was given only bread and water. The Soviets threatened to kidnap and murder his wife (the death of his son was kept from him. During similar interrogations about his knowledge of the Me 262, Hartmann was struck by a Soviet officer using a cane, prompting him to hit the assailant with a chair, knocking him out. Expecting to be shot, he was transferred back to the small bunker.[>Not ashamed of his war service, opted to go on a hunger strike and starve rather than fold to "Soviet will", as he called it. The Soviets allowed the hunger strike to go on for four days before force-feeding him. More subtle efforts by the Soviet authorities to convert Hartmann to communism also failed.>He refused to confess to these charges and conducted his own defence, which, according to Hartmann, the presiding judge denounced as a "waste of time".>Sentenced to 25 years of hard labour, he refused to work, and was put into solitary confinement, which led to a riot by some of his fellow detainees, who overpowered the guards, and temporarily freed him.>In January 1997, more than three years after his death, his case was reviewed by the Chief Military Prosecutor in Moscow of the Russian Federation, after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, and he was acquitted of all historical charges against him.

>>503316453should i even be bothering with aim 7s, this shit barely ever locks onto anyone and when i do they ALWAYS dodge iti figured out how to do this boresight mode or whatever with alt+w and i can look around with that and select specific areas to lock onto at least so it locks onto something im looking at possibly instead of locking onto just whatever random bullshit but 80% of the planes i try to lock onto it just wont

>>503317551yes
>>503316785it's even more complicated than thatsome radars may not even be detected by your RWRthe classic case is of the Mig-23 Saphir radar (J-band) being undetectable by most jets at its BR (including other Mig-21/23s) due to their RWRs not detecting J-bandyou are in for a rude awakening and saffering for paypigging your way up))))) you'll pay the skill/tech debt)))
>>503317551Yes. Get the FUCK out of my thread until you learn how to play, Piggy.
>>5033158631: Your plane does not have a missile approach warning system (MAWS). Very few planes in this game do and most of them are ground attackers. MAWS aren't as useful as you think in the 16v16 clusterfucks that you see in war thunder. 90% of the time the MAWS will shit its pants about missiles that aren't even aimed at you.2: Your plane is equipped with a Radar Warning Receiver (RWR). It will beep at you when you get scanned by radar and will blare a constant tone when a hard lock is acquired on you. A hard lock is a strong indicator that a radar guided missile will imminently be sent in your direction.3: Your only way to detect IR guided missiles is with your eyes. Thankfully in air RB you get a big red diamond around incoming missiles.

>>503316785>>503317642I'm not going to log into the game to check, but I'm pretty sure that the F-4S' RWR can detect J-band. There are three likely cases of what happened:1: He just didn't notice the warning. While all of the information to discern the direction of the threat is present with that RWR, it's a bit easier to overlook that solid tone amidst a chaotic battle compared to the different tone that later RWRs use denote missile launch.2: He was shot down by an IR guided missile and just doesn't which missiles are which in the kill feed.3: The attack came from within one of his RWR's blindspots.
FOR GODS SAKE how do i cancel a lock once i lock on with aim 9just fucking killed a friendly
>>503316668F-4S have PD radar so you can actually lock anywhere, you actually need to learn your radar modes and use them accordingly older planes without PD can only lock against target where the background is empty sky when uptier into gen4 is going to be a pain but its still playablebut when downtier in F-4s you will be the only one with PD so just stay faraway and near ground and you can lob your aim7 missiles at people while no one will be able to shoot back at youthem being able to dodge missiles is normal, so you sometime have to lead your missiles in the direction where they going to turn to make it harder to dodge in this game the real purpose of missile is to make them bleed their speed by dodging then you can finish them up with gun or another missile if you are lazy if your missile somehow manage to land cause they fuck up dealing with it then lucky you
>>503317770ive been playing flight sims for years just not modern warcraft shit hardly at all because its mad gayi thought war thunder might be less convoluted than this but no lol>launch all my aim 9s and aim 7s>"lol dodged">explode at complete randomevery time
>>503317962you should assign two different buttons for your heat seekers, one to turn the seeker on and one to actually fire, since pressing the seeker on button while you’re locking a target will unlock it and reset the seeker, and then pressing it again will turn it offyou can also just wait for the seeker to turn off after a while if you’re too stupid to figure this out, and after reading your other posts, I don’t doubt that
>>503318031half the radar keybinds dont apparently do anything in this jetas far as i can tell ive tried every option of the ones that dostill barely locks onto anything>>503318110*warcraftwarfarefuck i didnt realize how late it is
>>503318245I actually want to beat your head in with a hammer, I bet you’re not even using the PD mode, you drooling fucking pig retard
>>503318205oh ok, didnt know that was possible, thanks for spoonfeeding me nigger, also, eat my ass
>>503318031>F-4S have PD radar so you can actually lock anywhere, you actually need to learn your radar modes and use them accordinglyThey have a HEADON pulse doppler radar. They're good at locking onto targets that are rapidly approaching with a high closure rate. They are pretty much worthless at locking onto targets that are running away.You need to swap to standard SRC mode to reliably lock onto "cold" targets that are running away. SRC mode is very vulnerable to chaff and ground clutter.
>>503317673Adding to this anons post1. Forget about MAWS, it's only a thing you see in CAS bombtrucks and helis.2. RWRs (just like radars) come with different features. Some are basic as shit, some are more advanced. Some may have actual missile launch warnings. I haven't gotten the F-4S so I have no clue what kind of RWR it has but it probably at least detect hard locks and maybe even missile launches. I doubt it's any worse that SPO-152.1. Learn how radar works. There are many in depth guides for you in Youtube. Usually you want a PD mode. Make sure to bind ACM mode and target lock to make things easier for you.2.2 Learn how to notch. A bit more advanced but it is basically how you defeat radar missiles (apart from maneouvering2.3 Learn how to read your RWR. Again, there are many guides in Youtube. RWR got changed a few days ago but so it may not look exactly the same but the basics still apply. 3. As that other anon said, you always need to be aware of your surroundings. Dropping a flare or two even when there's no one around is not a bad idea4. Level up your pilot's G-Tolerance and stamina ASAP, and considering you'll be using the F-4S a lot, consider getting expert crew. Jets past 11.7~12.0 pretty much require expert crew to really perform well. You don't want to get cucked by passing out in the middle of a dogfight5. Don't just be one of the F-4S faggot bombertrucks. The F-4S is a fine platform, learning how to use the fighter capabilities will reward you well since kills give you much more RP than bases. Enemy base rushers are pretty much free kills for you in headons with your AIM-7Es6. Learn the BRs. The performance and capabilities of your jet and enemy jets matter a lot more in ARB compared to tanks in GRB. There are fights you'll never win, and there are others were you have the advantage. You gotta learn these encounters.
>>503318332this?yeah no shit it looks like it has 10 times the range in this mode
reminder: jets, radars, and missiles are soulless
>>503318603the range is mostly irrelevant, what is relevant is that this mode cannot see ground clutter because if filters for objects moving toward the radaralso, go into the options and change to the square radar display
My newfag nigger, go watch one of those 1 hour videos about radars and RWRs in Warthunderit will help you a lotAlso, set your radar in rectangular mode so you can see shit more clearlyHere's one from a solid nonfag CC:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Weghk_2DpfAHere's another good one:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tQ6JzPWEFU&t=1s
>>503318647basedi cant wait till i get the hang of this so i can confidently say its fucking gay and go back to real dogfighting
>>503318486>I haven't gotten the F-4S so I have no clue what kind of RWR it has but it probably at least detect hard locks and maybe even missile launches. I doubt it's any worse that SPO-15I think it's the same RWR that the F-14A has. It's a digital RWR that will tell you the precise angle that the radar is pinging you from. But it just beeps when you get scanned and makes a solid tone when you get hard locked.I don't think it has IFF, so it admittedly is a bit easy to overlook the solid BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP sound of a hard lock amidst the clusterfuck that makes it go BEEEEPPEPEPEPBPEBPBPEBPEBPEBPBE constantly.>>503318603That's pulse doppler VELOCITY mode. It's not showing you range to target. It's showing you closure rates. Returns that are "further" away from you are approaching more rapidly. Targets with a high closure rate are the ones that you'll get the best missile locks against. Targets with low closure rates are ones that are either close to notching or are about to turn away from you. These low and negative closure rate targets are ones that you are likely to lose lock against.
>>503318858i cant make it say PD without the V
>>503318968F-4S only has the PDV mode
>>503318968That's because PDV is the only PD search option for the F4S. I'm not saying that you're using the wrong mode, I'm saying that you're interpreting the display wrong.
>>503319052im not interpreting it at all im just spamming the lock button and never get anything, or i lose it very quickly, no matter how far or close i am or their velocity compared to mine

Missiles can be defeated, you'll realize once you get more skilledYou are kind of in a good time since Migger-23s got their radar and flight model nerfed to the ground which are pretty much your natural enemy at this BR.Stay the fuck away from Su-27s and Mig-29s when they get downtiered to your BR. They will eat you alive, however seeing them downtiered is rare.
this has to be some elaborate bait right? not even mutt mains are this stupid right?
>>503319120you should be using your ACM mode to lock targets in positions that your missiles will have the best chance of hitting against, not just locking whatever appears in your radar scope like an autistic monkey
>massive Su-15 schizoposting since last week>Not A Pound uploads a Su-15 video todayhuh, are the stars aligning or I am NOOTICING too much?
>>503319158>this has to be some elaborate bait right? not even mutt mains are this stupid right?Mutts don't understand the limitations of their radars and just seethe and whine about how they're allegedly broken and lose lock "for no reason" until they finally get to tippy top tier where all aspect PD just fucking locks everything if they aren't PERFECTLY notching you.
>>503319258>>503319127alright sweet thanks
>>503319320watch the radar guide first, then the RWR one and finally the missile one
>>503319297>muh mutt boogeyman when this webm was clearly posted by a newfag who never touched a jet with a radar beforeuh huh
>>503316956only with america
>>503319368alrightthe ACM mode is the one where its the narrow band and has that square that i search around manually with the mouse/HMD or whatever right
>>503319394It's LITERALLY the same problem that this F-4S guy is running into RIGHT NOW. The mutts blame the plane. You don't see this shit from the russians or frogs trying to figure out how to use MEME-TI mode.
>>503319490that's HMD mode, ACM mode will just lock whatever you put the box over, HMD mode is the one that moves with your mouse, you need to press the lock button for that one to lock
>>503319297so the problem here is that the person he's trying to lock onto isnt flying more parallel with him?>>503319551oh yeah, but either way its the little box. why not use hmd mode? because you cant lock onto someone unless they're flying straight at or straight away from you anyway?
>>503319654>because you cant lock onto someone unless they're flying straight at or straight away from you anyway?no, that depends on radar mode, for example some pulse doppler modes are bad at locking people running awaythe difference is that some planes just don't have an HMD mode, the F-4S is one of the few that gets it that early in BRs
>>503319490Air Combat Maneouver mode (ACM) will lock to the first thing in the boxHead Mounted Display mode (HMD) will make your radar look to wherever you are pointing, but you still need to manually lockI don't think the F-4S gets HMD though. Still ACM is good enough at that BR. Be aware that ACM lock range is probably less than the actual range of your radar>>503319654Man watch the guides first and save the questions for later. All of those questions you have are answered in the guides
>>503319490Not him, but yes that's ACM. The F-4S has two ACM modes. "Boresight ACM" that puts a square in dead center in front of your plane, and "HMD ACM" which is the same thing except the square follows where you're looking. Both should be fine, the HMD should be better, but anecdotally I felt that locks acquired with the HMD version were a bit buggy a few months ago and I don't know if it they fixed it or not. Maybe I was just taking crazy pills but I found boresight ACM to be better for inexplicable reasons. But both should work.
>>503319720its says HMS achskually, there is no HMD mode >>503319727yeah see i knew it was boresight
>>503319720The F-4S does have an HMD. It's part of the mutt handholding package.
>F-4S gets HMD at 11.0>mutts still insist on using it as a glorified bomberkek you can't make this up
>>503319817HMD and HMS are the same thing. Head Mounted Display vs Head Mounted Sight. It's like Gray vs Grey or Color vs Colour.
>>503319654PD radars like when the target is moving relative to the radar, so when someone is flying perpendicular it can't see them
>>503319832it's 12.0 cretin
>>503319910alrightnow give me the quick rundown on how different it is in simulation battles
>>503320094don't play sim
game 43 of getting no killstoday is the day
>>503320094I am not sure if Sim gets the same Radar/RWR UI but there are some select jets that actually have their IRL MFDs modeled in the cockpit and using them actually is better than just using WTs Radar/RWR interface>>503320271watch the fucking guides idiotI am starting to believe this is a burgerc*rd psyop to derail the thread
>>503318783>>503318968Let me give you some basic bitch tips to get going with the F-4S.1: Just use the boresight ACM mode to acquire locks when you're close enough to see nametags. You can use the head mounted display ACM too, but anecdotally it seemed buggy to me and I had better luck holding locks with boresight ACM. Regardless if you can see enemy nametags then then either of these modes ar the 2: Pay attention to which direction that the enemy is flying. This is VERY IMPORTANT to determining if you can get a good lock. Your pulse doppler mode is powerful because it filters out ground clutter and chaff, but your PD radar is only effective at locking targets that are flying TOWARDS YOU. If they're flying sideways or away from you, then you probably will not be able to lock them or worse you might lose your lock shortly after launch. More advanced PD radars are capable of seeing targets that are running away. Techinically yours can too under certain edge case scenarios but you should just assume that you can't lock enemies from behind with your PD radar.Your standard search mode is capable of locking enemies from all aspects. However it is vulnerable to chaff and ground clutter. So if there's nothing but clear sky behind the target then you might be able to take that side or rear shot. Side shots are still risky since enemies can still "notch" the missile's seeker.3: If, after shooting, your radar stops tracking the target and instead the lock shifts to chaff that they dropped. DON'T TURN OFF YOUR RADAR. Just HODL and pray that the missile keeps tracking. Just because your radar got spoofed doesn't mean that the seeker got bamboozled. Your misaligned lock can still potentially guide your missile to the target if the opponent doesn't have time to fly outside of your radar's illumination cone completely. But if you turn the radar off then you just throw it all away.
>>5033204234: Your radar will automatically swap between PD and standard radar modes when you lock a target. It does this to pick whichever mode is most likely to maintain a lock. Just be aware that it's doing that. It's the reason why someone might chaff your "PD" lock. The actual chain of events is that they turned in a way that reduced closure rate to the point where your PD mode was about to lose lock, it swapped to standard mode, and then standard mode was chaffed.
In for what? I've never even touched it
>>503320597it sucks
>>503319708>no, that depends on radar mode, for example some pulse doppler modes are bad at locking people running awayThe F-4S is exactly one of those planes. It only has headon PD radar. It sucks balls at locking targets that are running away. It's good at making head-on attacks with its sparrows. But it needs to use standard search mode, with all its warts of ground clutter and chaff vulnerability, to make side or rear aspect attacks with its sparrows. Or use the sidewinders for rear aspect attacks.
>>503320419eh ill do that tomorrow i booked marked them its lateno luck today>>503320423ok yeah i got most of this so far. i dont get the last bit about the missile still tracking despite the radar but i dont really need to i guessisnt there a thing where if your radar is on that makes it easier for other people to see you sometimes or is that just a VTOL VR thing, i vaguely remember that from somewhere
>>503320597Pretty handheld for the BR. You get great missiles, a healthy supply of countermeasures and some of the best T/W ratio and climb rate in your BR range so you can safely lob missiles from orbit at flareless chumps and RTB all game long.

redpill me on the mirage 2000C-S5
>>503320762>isnt there a thing where if your radar is on that makes it easier for other people to see you sometimesyeah, if you can see them in your radar then their RWRs are most likely beeping too. That's why you don't just randomly lock people from 20km away since they know you want to sparrow them.You lock them when you are sure you are in good rangealso that's why a lot of people turn off radar if the jet they are using has a shit radar or if they have a full IR loadout, alternatively they can just turn it on as neededthis is specially true in top tier where ARH missiles ping you but wont start tracking you until like they are around 10~15km away. People are very paranoic of radar locks/pings. Hell, it is no exaggeration to say that in top tier, reading your RWR correctly is what decides your entire match.
>>503320597mid and gets raped in uptiers
>>503319297that pic should result in a radar lock irl thoughfirst coz of the closure rate and second coz at that range anything will get locked IRL at any closure rate, it's a 10kw radar
>>503321148oh i figured that but i thought if my radar was on it made them able to find me with their radar, not the RWRthat was a feature in VTOL VR i think

>>503323072No one ever said this. What people did say is that it would be slightly better at dogfighting despite the TWR and energy retention (much like it is in DCS), just like how most planes around the AV-8A/C's BR are better at dogfighting than it despite the VTOLs' monstrous TWRs, but no one expected gayjin to handhold mutts so hard they'd slap so much artificial drag on Russian Gen 4s and give them such irredeemably dogshit instructors that they'd rate as poorly as an F-4E with sub-MiG-21 energy retention and woefully unremarkable AoA.

>>503324289delete this((!!!!!!!!!!
>>503320762>ok yeah i got most of this so far. i dont get the last bit about the missile still tracking despite the radar but i dont really need to i guessYou need to remember both that there is no direct communication between your radar guided missile and your plane once the missile leaves the rail* and that your radar lock is more like a flashlight beam than a laser.Right before you pull the trigger, the missile and your plane's fire control system are both looking at the same target. Once launched it is the missile's job to keep looking at the target, and it is the plane's job to keep it illuminated. Your plane's radar is centered on the target but is illuminating a large radius around the target. In the event that your radar swaps lock to something like chaff or a different plane, then your radar will no longer be CENTERED on the target but it might still ILLUMINATE that target. Since the target is still illuminated, then the missile might still see it. In a few seconds the target might fly out of the beam, but until then there is still a chance for your missile to hit the target.*The exceptions are the R-27R and R-27ER. These two have a datalink between the missile and source plane. This is the one case where you would want to break the lock and reacquire the lock against the target if you lose lock. I don't think any other fox 1 has a datalink. I think everybody else just jumped straight to Fox 3 missiles.
>>503324289He's literally not wrong THOUGH.
digging through the archive always brings back gemeralds like this
>>503324434Isn't this because dumb pilots leave the instructor on?
>>503322204The closure rate is near zero, so the target accurately gets filtered out by the PD algorithm. Then when he swaps to standard ACM the ground clutter fucks the radar. 10kw doesn't help here.

>>503324359>This is the one case where you would want to break the lock and reacquire the lock against the target if you lose lockThis is just plain wrong. R-27Rs will keep tracking for a while even if you lose lock (around 5 secs of grace period), and even after the lockless "pseudo tracking" ends, IOG will kick in.If you try to relock the same target, the R-27R receiver will reset for a second or two and will unlock from the target and try acquiring it again, possibly losing it out of view if they are maneouvering by the time the receiver unlocks.However, locking another target seems to work fine.If you lose the lock while the missile is close to the target, DONT try to relock it.I have no clue if the "pseudo tracking" grace period is intended or if it is just gaijin krokcoding but that's how it works. You can check it on replays if you want.

>>503324549>he closure rate is near zerono
>>503324771>Nov 23, 2023Back then we had 100m multipathing, so BVR was dead. Everyone and their mother was hugging the ground into the merge and only were using ACM mode to lock people up at close ranges if they dared to climb above 100m as part of a maneuver. The meta was fox-2 furballs and for a while the grippen was the absolute king.The poor search scan rate, and also the at the time 10km ACM range, only became a problem once fox3s were added and multipathing was cut down to 60m. Then engagement ranges increased BVR/long range WVR finally started happening.
>>503325668The scan pattern of all radars was also broken when ARHs were added. Before, the slower scanning of Russian radars was a minor nuisance, but after, it became a crippling weakness. Meanwhile it barely made a dent in Western radars because of how quickly they scan in the first place.
>>503325651>No1: You can blatantly see the afterburner plume of that F-14 near perfectly notching.2: It takes about ~3 seconds for the F-14A to move from 5km to 4km. He's moving at ~1300km/h. That's ~21.6 km per minute. Or in other words ~0.36 km per second. So we're pretty much right on the money for that red F-14 having NEAR ZERO closure rate. The gap was closed entirely because the player was flying towards the target, not because the target was flying towards the player.The F-14A is most definitely not locking that target in that situation. The target is going to vanish into the doppler notch if you try to lock with PD mode, and you're not going to lock the target with standard mode when he's flying that low and is completely back-dropped against the earth.
>>503326345you don't know what notching is and need to stop thinking watching growling sidewinder videos makes you an expertyou can be going sideways at 5km/s it doesnt matter if a plane is coming towards you at mach 1

>>503326779it filters for how fast the ground is coming at your plane, if a plane was flying away from you at the same speed thus 0 closure rate an all aspect PD radar would be able to see it
It doesn't matter how fast YOU are moving towards the target. What matters is how fast that the target is moving towards YOU. These are two different numbers.The ENTIRE REASON PD radar even works is because the ground isn't moving towards you, BUT YOU MOST CERTAINLY ARE MOVING TOWARDS THE GROUND.

my tip is to not be the first one to arrives in middle of the mapcause you will have 7 sparrows locked at you and you will not be able to notch all of them at once
>>503328335I have on occasion notched multiple missiles from different directions by flying straight fucking down at the earth. Bonus points because sometimes the intercept path for the missile can cause it to slam into the earth, and if you survive to reach the earth then you can multipath everything. Unless there are 50m tall mega trees and ground level stormclouds.

so how do I beat people who are like 2km above you?just stay under them making them overshoot in the 90degree dive? but what if they dont dive?
>>503234483>There HAS to be some sort of SBMM on top of team and gun rigging on their partThere absolutely is. I started noticing this on tasks. Anything involving wins and you get abysmal teammates, anything involving kills and you're lucky to be in the top 3 going like 7-1, anything involving something like "base capturer streak" nothing but TDM maps. It's even so insidious that when you need something like "spaa kills" you will be matched against nothing but players that don't even have spaa in their lineup.
IDK about SBMM but i certainly feel like i get waaay more uptiers when i am in a 4man squad than alone.
>>503332346Go back in time and climb higher.

in for what
>>503333447handholding beyond any reason
>>503333491well that I already knew, I play russia
>>503333491That's USA.
>>503333447Being food for the TKX P
>>503333595No that's Russia
>>503333447Nice front armor shit mobility.
>>503333447I just unlocked it a few days ago. It's great but you have to remember you have literally 6.3 IS-2 tier reverse speed. The turret traverse speed is relatively slow too, which isn't a big deal unless you run into someone savvy in a fast vehicle that will take advantage of both of these things.
>>503333447Crushing levels of handholding
>>503334058>6.3 IS-2 tier reverse speedlike 18 km/h?
>>503334249-10
>>503294398welcome to the club i was asleep
>>503292597I'm impatient too, and in my experience it doesn't matter if your aim is superior. If you close the distance you get ganged on by half the enemy team.
>>503334249>>503334297Yes if anything I undersold how fucking slow this thing is to reverse. Gun and armor are absolutely top tier for 9.3 though.

>>503334369It’s wiped enough teams that you will get people in chat coordinating against it fairly often, I was speaking more about experience from when that doesn’t happen for one reason or another, say around C on New Zealand when most blues are by B and blocked from interfering by the big island for a recent example for me. Thankfully other nations have gotten ships good enough to be able to compete enough to mostly prevent the old spawn rushes, though during the last event I was on the bad side of one on I think Med Port
>>503254618> rp rates per hour at 0.5 of what ARB is> just more grind, but now even more mind-numbingI agree with it being relaxing, I've spaded Su-25 in SB and even had fun with that. Not gonna do it with fighters, at least without VR/some head tracker and probably flight stick.For me it's RB EC, possibly without markers/with markers for friendlies at 1.5 km or more if later jet crafts with radar IFF feature.

Japan should get a Su-30MKM, I think
i wonder what made napalmratte absolutely drop air and ground just to focus on naval
>>503337849japan should get their domestic equipment first
>>503338040Fuck knows, but it wouldn’t surprise me if it’s because it’s easier to cherrypick games with how bad compression is. Only time I ever see him in matches he’s j’ing out a reserve three times because he doesn’t think the match will go his way
>>503338040there are a billion other channels that focus on ground and air reviews, it probably makes more sense to "rebrand" himself as the naval guy to get more consistent views, it's also probably easier to make content if you only focus on 1 niche

>>503339134>arcadeOpinion invalid.
Did they change anything about ARB spotting? I'm getting missiled from people I didn't see when looking around way more often at ~10.x, but I don't think my awareness has changed at all compared to earlier. It's confusing and frustrating.
>>503338487I'd rather get nothing over a bunch of garbage I've already played in half-a-dozen different trees
>>503339590>Did they change anything about ARB spotting?nope, they either have their crew vision higher than yours, or they simply just see though from a long range
>>503339838I know things render in at longer range in front of your plane, enemies seeing me isn't my problem. It's that opponents don't seem to be marked at ranges they used to when I'm looking around.
>>503339365i enjoy it :(btw when you guys research the first new vehicle of the next tier, do you instantly equip it so you have it + 2 lower BR vehicles or do you grind out at least another new vehicle with the old ones so you only have 2/3 that won't get downtiered?
>graphicsmaxxed>decalsapplied>bushniggersoutlined
why do I even bother
which ki-84 do I get?the one with 30mm?
>>503339996sticking to lineups tends to work better, unless you know something works at a higher BRfast vehicles with wimpy guns can still be dangerous far beyond their own BR, same goes for slower vehicles with lolpen guns. armor really is the only thing that tends to hold up rather poorly the higher you go
>>503334952There's no application like that.Resend your application by first applying to another squadron then applying again, along with another post.
this thing is actually pretty good in factdidn't really believe it at first
unreal how much i hate krautoid teams
>>503340935american and kraut teams are unironically making me suicidal. Not a game goes by without them either going full retard like stopping mid-flank to alert an entire team. Most recent being a leKpz sticking to me and never stopping moving while I had my engine stopped.
>>503340601I'm just wondering if I should remove the m18 to keep it 4.0 max BR while I grind out the 76 and the jumbo, wdyt? feels like i'm playing in 1.3 higher BR just for the hellcat and it feels pretty bad, I equipped it back in the day just because its a legendary vehicle
>>503339247It can, you just need to be 4kms away.
Happy 2 year anniversary
>>503314340
>>503340517That has like 5mm of armor bro.
>>503341820This is the peak of /wtg/, it will NEVER be surpassed.
>>503341786id leave the Hellcat in the hangar until you've got a couple more 5.Xs, because right now you're just dragging 3.3s into 6.3 territoryid swap it for the premium M8A1 to get the M24, after that its entirely up to you as to which order you're gonna get a 5.3 lineup
>>503341786NTA but when I grinded USA, I went for jumbo as it's armor is extremely effective from the front, then went for M36s as the later M36 has HEAT and it made dealing with heavily armored German tanks much easier. Then I mained walker bulldog for a long time, as its speed, decent gun, scouting, and effective M2 for AA was very fun.
>>503341786also, spade your shit and slap expert crews on your vehicles
>>503341786>remove the m18 to keep it 4.0 max BRYes you should unless you want to just run the M18 and a plane or something. Honestly the only highlights of the US tree are the 6.7 heavies between where you're at and almost top tier. I'm sorry to break it to you. I'm 9.3 max with Russia, Germany, and Britain. I got bogged down with USA tech tree. I'm 7.7 and don't even play any of the vehicles. Only reason I've been playing USA lately is I got the T55E1 in the battlepass and it's insanely fun.
>>503342615>>503342567>>503342473thanks lads I want the M60 one of my fav cold war tanks and just a beautiful tank in general eventually abrams is the dream ig >>503342576>spade your shitwhy? you mean the old shit? for accel research? the m4a2 im still actively using n its not grinded >expert crewdo you mean pic rel? I completely forgot u could do that shit, fuck, thanks for the reminder
>>503343125M60 is good depending on which variant, I found the M60A2 to be really fun with its LRF and rounds available.
>>503343125I was literally using these without an expert crew as well, fuck
>>503343432ah wait u need 25 on the tiger 2s anyway to get it is expert crew a thing you buy separately for each vehicle and it only works if you put the same vehicle for that same crew or do u buy it once and it just works no matter which slot u put the vehicle in in the future?
>>503343520per slot of course )))))and if you find yourself with too low level crews, powerlevelling less useful skills is fastest solution
>>503342473>premium M8A1this thing is a beast even in 4.0 br despite being 2.7, thanks for the reminder, my US tank tree has been largely untouched since the early days of WT tanks when it came out and i took an almost decade hiatus, no idea where I have that thing from
>>503343432Going forward btw if you got a good amount of SL laying around and are DESPERATE for some crew XP (next level will be 35, then 45), transfer your premium vehicles on that slot and grind it out for a bit cuz of ze tailsmen they getKW I C is literally perfect for this since that thing is a great vehicle and all your enemies in this BR are pretty shit. So free kills
>>503344084>good amount of SL laying aroundyou mean because of the cost to switch crews like that? I see, I had 900k just now, but just experting some crews just now cost me almost 500k, rough, can't afford premium account for this month for now so I'll hang onto it but good tip, and yeah the german kv1 when it doesn't get upteared feels invincible

>>503295727PVKV m/43 (1943) is fast, good armor, 15 degs of depression and big gun, the 5.0 one is unironically worse (much slower) at a higher BR, the only problem is being open top. I run it instead of the pz.IV

>Full Ultra HQ client>ULQyep, it's War Thunder time
What plane do I use to get further and what to unlock next? Is F-100 good or should I rather use Hunter? What is the most optimal route to get unlock rank 8 here?
>>503349047Hunter F.6 -> Mirage IIIE -> the first Mirage 2000 (it's criminally undertiered)
>>503345273it’s bad uptiered into fucks 3 land
>>503349047They all suck balls. The Etendard is probably the best bet, but you don't have that. Because of that I'd just use the Super Mystere to grind out the Mirage IIIE. Skip the C, it doesn't have flares.
>>503349047the Mirage F1 is very nice especially with the 2 free kills from its Magic 2'sF1C leads to the mirage 2k which you should always play instead of it F1CT has a better rwr so is technically better than the C but it doesn't lead to anything so just skip it

>>503349787Super Etendard and Jaguar seem enticing given I liked T-2. >>503349371Why not go for Mirage 5 Ba as mainliner instead, seem to be the same 3E but with lower BR in exchange for the missiles.

>>503356963Top tier is pretty amazing if you don't limit yourself to only Italian vehicles for whatever reason.
>>503357191at that point you just replace the 2A7 with 2A4 and have a proper 10.7 lineup
>>503357325Shit, wrong image, that's before I added the Gripen. Either way, it wors very well for top tier. The CAS/CAP is very strong for all three slots, the 2A7 is easily in the top 3 of the best MBTs, the light tanks work well.

>>503362632It would be good if it had War Thunder maps.
>>503362632>is [SLOP CREATED BY GAYJEW] good?Who knows
>>503362708The tl;dr is:>learn how to defeat missiles>stay aware of your surroundings and be prepared to defeat missiles>shoot missiles at people who look like they won't be able to defend in timeBut we can't go into specific details without knowing what you're flying and what you're dealing with. Someone dealing with IR missiles for the first time doesn't need to be ready to employ the tactics that are used to combat Fox-3's.
>>503362632good enough for an instal and about 2 evenings of messing around, maybe a few more if you're playing with a friendnot much more than that, typical F2P grinderUI was kinda funky when i played it and the squad AI was hilariously bad
>>503362867>Flat maps with no cover but it's an FPS
>>503362708you are deliberately started without good missiles to encourage spending of moneyif you don't have AMRAAMs or equivalent its going to be painful
>>503363672Advance to Rhine? Abandoned Factory? Alaska? Breslau? I could go on forever.
>>503363449Got the burger 104a today as the first plane with aams. The speed kinda helps sometimes. Maybe I can bring a full fuel tank and use most of it to flank around the long way and sneak behind people to catch them off guard with the 2 missiles I got. It's not a turnfighter so fighting anything except head ons or from behind is not worth it.
>>503362632Not really. Squad AI makes the mechanic completely useless and every full auto weapon has almost no recoil so you'll die to some ppsh across the map as soon as you spawn in with your shitty WW1 rifle.
>>503362632War Thunder is ""good"" only because it had more than a decade of developement, it has no competitors and, because of ALL those years of contents, it really cannot have a competitors.Enlisted is just WT with infantry, and it has a lot of competitors, and most of those shit on it and its monetization, that can basically only really work in WT.
>likes to spade trees after an update drops>needs to research and spade 4 fucking Osa-AKThis will be worse than the king of battle with the 2s1 x m109 spam
I will play Italy and I will like it.
>>503364070Tried this. Whole team except one other person got wiped out in the first 5 minutes. Meaning everyone was up my ass so no sneaks or chances to fire missiles.
>>503364070>104a>no countermeasures>no rockets to act as poor man's countermeasures>only have AIM-9bI haven't flown it myself but most of the proper fighters at that BR still have shit missiles. Some of the ground attackers have more advanced ones. IMO you should give A-10s and Su-25s a wide berth.The earliest IR guided missiles can be evaded by a hard turn. Later you want to tap some flares to defeat them or fire rockets if you don't have flares. Throttling down to cool your engine can help make missiles chase the flares instead of your afterburner plume.
>>503364668>it has no competitors and, because of ALL those years of contents, it really cannot have a competitors.Wrong, all you have to do is make a combined arms game, make it havs a more generous grind and """IMPORTANT"""" start with cold war vehicles with boom 50% of the playerbase would switch overnight
