I even had multiple 3 and 4 kill games where I didn't actually fight anyoneThis shit is genuinely awful, how do you people tolerate it? It's legit worse than low-mid tier props by every conceivable metricIf higher tiers are actually this bad, I'm starting to believe the Wyvern/B7A2/XP-50 spam at 4.0 is an intentional conspiracy to kill whatever fun air RB still has leftI'm sure you fags already know all this but coming back to this shitshow after not playing for 6 years was a disappointment to say the leastThanks for reading my blog and fuck tank niggers

>>493430574Interesting how that troon calling avatar on every single anime image's been awfully quiet whenever this faggot shows up, not a word, nothing, shit doesn't bother him at all...
I was wrong, I actually love /wtg/
>>493431239I mean it's mexican cuckvenger. He's never been killed through the cupola because he's probably w-keying and dying through the hull. And he's never killed through the cupola because he's too retarded to see the hull-down tiger let alone hit the cupola. And frankly, he's a british main. He can't kill through the cupola anyways.
>>493431239Nah, I distinctly remember one shotting a Tiger E with Tiger H1's Pzgr. in GAB before. You usually have better shots, but in a pure hull down fight it's a valid weakspotAlso, I don't really get the comparison? Isn't the less prominent cupola THE reason for a 0.3 BR difference?
>>493435502Aphe fixed -> h1 goes to 6.0 where it belongs. Problem solved.
>>493433156Just got a 5 kill game on Mozdok (absolutely brilliant map for high-tiers btw)The enemy team had a total of 3 (three) non-airspawning planes, and everyone immediately dove to suicide into ground targets. The last enemy alive was a 288 camping the airfield until 4 of my allies dove on himStill no actual air duels to speak of
>>493433338Reminder that if we get another split vote (like the 52/48 we had) they will NOT go forward with the changes. And since they plan to scar the live service with the change, achieving a 50/50 is the bare minimum.>>493435683Then just killed the diversity of lineups for no reason. Tiger H1 will just be a more annoying (and still worse armorwise) Tiger E, so no you just spawn a backup of the latter instead. I know that compressing every single mid tier vehicle into a single 1 BR range is Gaijin's dream, but it's not really beneficial for us.
>>493435502>Isn't the less prominent cupola THE reason for a 0.3 BR difference?It is, but like you said, the Tiger Es cupola is still a viable weakspot.
>>493435234I don't know how you can play this game for a decade straight and still not known common weakspots of mid tier tanks. I understand he's too shit at the game to hit it, but he should at least know about it.

>>493437810>thinking it's mutt players that will be sperging about APHE changesThis general is suffering from a serious case of mutt derangement syndrome.
>>493435502>Isn't the less prominent cupola THE reason for a 0.3 BR difference?It's more the extra turret armor around the gunner sight. I don't think gaijin considers the cupolas of anything for BR placement.The Tiger E also doesn't have those stupid antipersonnel launchers on the hull corners that just get in the fucking way of your gun when you angle.
>>493434751this post? just a figment of my imagination
>>493436320Well as someone who's played both AP and APHE, weakspots aren't really important to AP outside of cases where it's universally applicable to any ammo, eg IS4 driver's hatch or Tiger2 cheeks. He would probably not be used to even aiming at cupolas or did it with giganiga guns that are unironically too strong and function like AP.What he's trying to argue there is that if you can fight a 6.0 tiger with a smaller and harder to pen weakspot... than you can fight both Tiger's with the weakspot more or less removed.
>>493438273>I don't think gaijin considers the cupolas of anything for BR placement.I don't think Gaijin considers anything other than stats. The cupola weakspot is the thing talk about when H1 is mentioned - I assume that's (along with the annoyance of launchers) enough to bring its stats below the E. It's certainly easier to kill it with low pen rounds than the E, that's for sure
>play CV90105 for the first time in months to finish grinding my BMP>get a nuke first gameWords can't express how much I love this thing
>the conformal tanks on the F-15C improve the turn time???
>>493438639>weakspots aren't really important to AP outside of cases where it's universally applicable to any ammo (...) He would probably not be used to even aiming at cupolas or did it with giganiga guns that are unironically too strong and function like AP.Well, Britain (since he calls himself a main) has guns with very high pen at Tiger's BRs. You don't really need to aim for the cupola when your 4.7 Firefly already has 190mm of pen - enough to slice through the hull even when angled - not to mention the APDS rounds or 232mm of pen on the Charioteer, So to him the cupola really is irrelevant - not so much the US (for instance) vehicles that need to go to 5.3 to even get 150mm of pen.
Now I just need the new SPAA
>>493438639Weakspots mostly don't matter for most vehicles. In the majority of cases everyone can pen everything sans a few "hardspots" that you should avoid. Shoot the crew compartment and they lose. It normally doesn't matter if you're shooting APHE or solid shot. You either kill them outright or maim them enough that they can't fight back.Where APHE pulls ahead are when fighting the minority of memebunker targets where the only chink in the armor is in the middle of nowhere and a penetrating hit with AP would accomplish nothing but a penetrating hit with APHE would still teleport a frag grenade inside of the tank. Cupola weakspots are one such example of this kind of APHE weakpoint.
>>493438118>mutt players have shit to mediocre or average pen outside open tops, mediocre to high filler>germs have above average to great pen with the main workhorse guns approaching the 17lber, meaningless afterthought to giganigger filler>ruskies have generally shitty to average pen unless it's low caliber high velocity or giganigger caliber, high to giganigger fillergee, I wonder which of these will be most affected by a substantial portion of their damage coming from shell weight and velocity versus disproportionately effective pure HE filler while crying bitter tears about not being handcrushed enough from bottom to toptier with stabilizers, instant death on penetration rounds, CAS undertiered by 2.0, not getting to be undeadable niggerbunkers while crying about anyone with a more valid claim to the experience...?

>>493444421idk slavs arent smart so who fucking knows or cares
>>493440357My favourite post on the forum shame I didn't screencap it is where someone unironically said the M36 feels better with the APHE "rework". I tested it and it's worse in every way under every circumstance. I don't even play American tanks and I feel bad for them.The change does something really bizarre which nerfs every APHE round to be functionally identical regardless of filler unless it crosses the overpressure threshold. Huge buff to German APHE in general. Everyone else eats shit.
>>493443128The cupola isn't even the biggest weakness of those shit tanks. Anyone can click pretty much anywhere on the M48. The M60 depends on the version where it's either anywhere around the gun or turret ring which is a way easier shot than the cupola and more consistent.

now what
>>493453827>>493454045do you think the resident P-38 fetishist would do that? just start artificial chimpouts and lie?
>>493454253does shitley take it in the ass?
>>493454157spade it. duh
>>493454253every chimpout is artificial. the last organic chimpout this thread had was when the Iranian tomcat went to the american tree
>>493454157Bring it to top tier and print SL using the rank kill bonus.
>>493454157btr-80 (7.3) gun at 9.0
>>493454479Never happened, it was quite literally just the schizo chimping out about some imaginary chimpout that was never there to begin with... and that was the chimpout, apparently.
>loot crate gave me the HMS Tigerisn't that the worst cruiser at 5.7?
>>493454754>Never happenedlol
>>493454770Not necessarily the worst but it’s definitely in some bad company low on the list
>>493454995how low on the list? because a total of ten guns seems pretty grim for 5.7
>>493455219anything that isnt an american cruiser is pretty grim at 5.7
>>493454860You chimped out about shit that was never posted in the thread, bringing up forum and some website called reddit as if it was here. You seemed quite lost, honestly, hope you find your way back home eventually.
>>493455350what the fuck are you even talking about schizo retard
>>493455519being called out hurts huh
>>493455219Its shell output is decent at 80/min from the primary, and the fcs is post war so basically cheating, plus iirc it’s one of the few Bong ships with AP. What lets it down is really bad dispersion for a 6” gun, probably to balance out being one of the first ships with the really low ranging times. But being a naval event vehicle it was basically left to rot after the event ended, as is tradition since they never made a premium version. >>493455309New Orleans is also comfortably very low on that list

Is it worth trading the speed of the Type 90 for better thermals and situational armor?
>>493455978mmmm seems you forgot about uptiers and downtiersnot the brightest cookie but thats to be expected of /wtg/
>>493455978He’s the skill issue guy from yesterday who was seething about getting stomped by destroyers in myoko/haguro

>>493456196I see they both have JM33 as their only darts, you might be thinking of the TKX
>>493455978if they're so great why isnt anyone using them to grind the event
>>493456780Day one of the event has been the most civil I’ve seen. Other guy says Atlanta was next to extinct. I did most of my star at top tier and saw exactly one Scharnhorst, with me being the soulless nigger who brought it. Saw mostly cruisers and 6.3/6.7 battleships. Felt like bizarro world I’ve never seen high morality event gameplay before
>>493457145Yeah I think at this point it's safe to say we should believe the opposite of what that guy says.Did my star in the ATL and saw at least another 2 in every match.Surprising amount of Emdens too.
>>493456241
>>493457293Too bad then, guess it can’t last. Was nuts being able to play off top tier meta after the one game I nigged up. Felt like a beautiful window into how good the game could be if they didn’t make that retarded series of battlecruiser additions from winter ‘21 to summer/fall ‘22

>>493464361Your opportunity cost, retard?
R-73 has retardedly long range and ignores flares now
>>493465992It easily has the shortest range of all of the top tier dogfight missiles and its IRCCM is only effective at guns ranges.
>>493462873Remember when post penetration spalling was completely removed from the game and the new meta was using HEAT to kill crew one by one?That was unironically some of the most fun I've had in War Thunder top tier.
>casually deletes the enemy team and controls the matchJesus Christ.
>>493466160I remember that one time that you needed to kill 100% of the crew to kill a tank and we had a button for shuffling the last man back and forth between the driver and gunner seats.
>>493464361Lizard brain likey unlocking new bits and bobs.
>>493466152shorter range than a magic?
>>493466210Aim for the rear turret farm if you run into another guy running one, I’ve found it’s a pretty consistent magazine detonation
>>493466312that was only for the first 4 or so years of arcade
>>493466572It was in RB for a week or two. Everyone hated it.
>>493466152Nigger I got hit by one at like 6km range at low altitude while flaring and juking it
>>493466547Can you show me a clip of you getting magazine detonations? I understand the fundamentals of it but it's a rare thing if I actually get one.Pretty please.
>Get banned for pig posting>not around to bully mutts>mutts get out of controlTale as old as /wtg/
>>493466863You pig posted too close to the sun.
>>493466863What does that even mean?
>>493466312Man I forgot about that one
>>493466682Sure buddy
>>493467137It means Gaijin should reverse the fantasy buffs from the Ackbrams because having a dogshit playerbase should have no bearing on how a tank is modeled in War Thunder.
>>493466486Yes. The R-73 wobbles around excessively bad, which introduces a shit ton of drag that negatively impacts range and speed.>9M/AAM3 are the longest ranged ones with IRCCM that is basically immune to being accidentally flared by the opponent defending against a third party, but unfortunately are defeated by the retard's reflexive instinct to throw his mouse across the room and spam every flare that he owns.>R-73 is unflareable within ~1km and can pull off some insane HOBs shots with the help of an HMD, but its range is hurt by the excessive wobbling that all thrust vectoring missiles are plagued by in this game and even are prone to simply spinning into an unrecoverable spin. This problems would probably be fixed within a week once USA gets a thrust vectoring missile at top tier.>Magic 2 is faster than the R-73 and effectively has a larger unflareable sphere because of it, but it can't do crazy HOBs shots.>>493466682At 6km the R-73 is as easy to flare as an AIM-9L. Its IRCCM technique is field of view narrowing. This only accomplishes anything at all once the missile is close enough that it can see your engine but cannot see your flares. Basically the outer edges of guns range.
reminder IRST locks on SPAA still do not trigger laser warning even though you would have to have a laser tracking the target to get the range and a by proxy a lead indicator
>>493466758Unfortunately, I don’t clip gameplay, but the general idea is that if you aim at most ships’ turrets while making sure that your near misses always fall short, never ever long that’s very bad, you will eventually get lucky and they blow up. It’s easiest to do with guns from ~8-12”, but still very possible with smaller guns against lightly armored or armor degraded ships. If you’re using the 5”/38 you may have to aim much shorter than you would think, often between .2km short at mid range to .5km+ short at longer range against quickly closing targets due to the low velocity of the round over distance. There’s also a bug currently where barbette armor just fails to work sometimes and either allows all damage straight into the magazines or somehow just directly transfers it, not sure which, that has made it a bit easier.
>>493467252Gaijin lives to suck western cock. They'll keep buffing the Abrams and give us that trophy T-90A and there's nothing you can do about it.
>>493467274>R-73 is unflareable within ~1kmnah i think i've only died once out of tens of heater dogfights to an r73 in my gripen/m2k. preflare and continue to spam flares until the missile passes you and you wont ever get hit even while full burning (in my experience)
That's it, if I have US on my team at top tier, I'm not even spawning in, fuck this shit
>>493467974I mean if they implement trophies then russia gets abrams, leopards and leclercs soon
>>493436432Nabutso's torn loli fleshlight
dumb question: how do I angle properly? and how do I figure this out for each of the different tanks I use?
i am so fucking sick of golan hegihts and magic chinkland can we have ANY other fucking maps at top tier at all
>>493468989just don't be square lol
>>493467810Is there no way for you to show a clip of this in action? Cropped webm or replay or something? All the video guides I'm using are outdated or don't show ammo snipes.
>>493468989optimum angle is determined by the thickness of the front armor relative to the side armora box hull with equal thickness in the front and side will have an optimum angle of 45 degrees or pointing the front left or front right corner directly towards the enemyyou can figure out the optimum angle by using the protection analysis function in the garage and moving the camera to different angles and comparing which angle gives you the best effective overall armor value at a specific anglesome tanks are designed specifically to be pointed directly towards the enemy, some tanks are designed to be angled
>>4934689891: Identify if your tank is even capable of angling2: Easiest way is to just go like 30 degrees but for some stuff you can do a lot more
>>493468989Something like this.
>>493470080>at 5.3look how they massacred my boy
>>493467303They use a Kalman Filter so can remain completely passive.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalman_filter#Example_application,_technical
>>493468306With the grippen I wouldn't be surprised if you pre-flared him. The IRCCM doesn't work while the missile is still on the rail. If the missile gets spoofed while the player's finger is depressing the trigger, then he's fucked. Using radar slaving can help mitigate this risk but the grippens can just go full retard with flares for minutes on end.
>>493470171It was at 5.3 far longer than it's ever been at 5.7 but also 5.7 was the BR it had at the beginning.Everything that fought it at 5.3 got moved up so hardly anything changes.
*turns on periodic countermeasure release**flies in a straight line**sips coffee*feels good being a viggenchad
>>493469683There’s a couple naval youtubers that still upload if you want to see it. Go for straight gameplay over guides since it paints a somewhat more accurate picture, though there’s still a lot of cherry picking. Cmdr. Tyrael does commentary on his videos last I remember, Kesik123 does gameplay and dev server without commentary. It’s really mostly just a matter of landing shots short of their turrets to hit the magazine. Due to dispersion you really don’t have much control over it outside very short ranges, beyond just getting your deflection right to hit near turrets. Only real tips I have are make sure shots fall short, make sure you use your highest pen round, and that walking fire in with ranging gives you a better chance of getting lucky per minute, while salvos give a better chance of a lucky detonation when you don’t have them exactly dialed in.
>>493470438I'm not really in the naval loop of the past few days (I only posted a few screenshots last thread) but I've been lurking and taking notes.If I post a clip or two would you be willing to share advice on what I'm doing right / wrong?>Cmdr. Tyrael does commentary on his videos last I remember, Kesik123 does gameplay and dev server without commentary.Those are the ones I've been watching, but I don't know if they're reliable. If you mention them I guess that's a good vouch.
>>493471292Yeah sure I’ll give it a go. Probably at least another anon around will catch something if I miss it so shoot.

Thoughts on the QN506i remember it being all kinds of fucked up on launch but is it good now?
Kommyhuct just got sent home from school early because he crapped his pants

I used to be a japan air player and I was damn good at it, but that was a long time ago, how are they nowadays and could I get any good games in realistic battles?
>>493473543Squidley was chased out of an elementary school and shat his pants?
>>493471690Alright so this is an example of what happens on average when I try to snipe ammo rooms.https://streamable.com/y7xxssI see I'm damaging the ammo elevator at least, I can see that much. Also shows the 0% crew bug I mentioned last thread.As a side note, I tend to fire full salvos at around 7km and below. Anything further and I do ranging shots spread so my shells are continuously landing as often as I can.Also sorry if I'm taking too long, have to go through dozens of minutes of clips just to crop the bits I want to post.
>>493473543sneedcord is sneething over this post rn
do you have to actually purchase a top rank vehicle or just unlock it to get the rp bonus
>>493473694what does squidley have to do with my sister kommyhuct crapping her diapey
>>493474054All good m8. I don’t see anything terrible there, I’d just say your aim point in terms of deflection was a bit farther back than I’d put it, looked like some shots were falling off the stern a bit. Not a terrible thing to take out an engine while you fish for magazines since that makes follow on shots easier to adjust as he slows. Other than that it seemed like you were maybe a little too reactive with the range adjustments, I tend to dial down a bit before it updates rather than adjusting after, as that means you’re always shooting at where he was to a degree, not where he’ll be. Otherwise it’s probably just bad luck and/or just not a great range band for your guns to hit the spot. Happens to everyone, if I’m not having luck as quick as I feel I should I generally transition to a crew kill, since some games the snail just hates to let you blow people up. I will say however I don’t adjust salvo vs ranging fire based on range itself. In fact I find it to be most devastating in that ~3.5-7km band where you can very easily make sure your shots are hitting exactly the module you want to optimize crew drain for the sure kill. I mostly only transition back to salvo fire if I lose a shell room which tends to make ranging shot stop working in my experience
actual lmaoboth this developer and the community are retardedhttps://youtu.be/fo0qGNH3ejQ?t=758

>>493473601Yeah tanks like the Hellcat don't even bother. You don't have enough armor where it matters.Beveled edges are the bane of armor enjoyers. I assume you understand *why* they negate the point of angling?
>>493474263You have to purchase it, but when you do you lose the RP bonus for that nation permanently.However, the bonus RP thing is gone for now, it was just a brief test. Maybe the next iteration will not be as retarded.hahahahahaHAHAHAHAH

Its fucking nothing.

PLEASE someone give me some tips on how to start playing a stock almost-toptier jet.I got no chaffs so i'm in a constant 50m altitude notch. I cannot manouver at ALL since i'm a stock shitbrick and i cannot even reach AI planes because everyone is playing fucking ace combat with missles everywhere

>>493492485I'll try that as soon as the crewlock lifts since i crashed for the 5ft time trying to multipath some retarded missles coming my way
>>493492908Lower isn't always better when multipathing. You need to remember that the reason that the missile is freaking out is because it is being confused by your reflection. It views you and the reflected image as being one big return and targets the center of that return, which is the empty space between you and the reflection. Fly too low and you get too close to your reflection which means that the missile will probably fly close enough to you to trigger its proxy fuse. Fly too high and the missile clearly resolves you without any multipath confusion.The multipath nerf really cut down on the size of or golidlocks zone.
it's comingin THIS major updateas a last minute addition, just like they did with the 2S38 :)

>>493512212germcucks btfo
>>493512325>no armour>no aphe>no reverse
>>493512325If you play air then it doesn't apply as the UK air tree is pretty good. If you're playing ground you'll have an underperforming solid shot round until you unlock sabot rounds, which means you need to actually aim for internal components and crew members on tanks to effecetively get kills, if you don't do this you'll end up getting multiple assists per match but no kills. If you get used to playing as Brits, then when you inevitably switch to a handheld nation like Russia or Germany you'll be a god since all you have to do then is get one penetrating shot on anything and the filler in the overperforming APHE will effectively nuke all the crew inside giving you one shot kills all day.

>>493514580>>493513715Not related but next update they are going to let skin creators to paint on fuel tanks so you can also have those part of the skin

>>493516552I don't want zigger stink polluting my tree desu
>>493490975Play air assault pve until you get your chaff. Then play it some more until you get your g-suit and new boosters. If you still want to zomb your way through continue until you get your R27ER1. But Mig-29 is fairly good as a fighter as is, able to reverse most fighters easily in 1 circle since its blended wing-body behaves like double delta. >>493504147Your RP goes to nowhere, so you start another tree to feel like you are spending your effort meaningfully. I don't even finish spading top tier jets to not wast spading modules bonus for nothing, at least until they add new top tier aircrafts.

>>493519248>owns your media>owns your banks>controls your electionsyeah
So I had a War Thunder dream. In it, there was new reward encouragement system.Basically when you finished a match, you were presented with a window.It would show you a vehicle from your collection, presumably not aced, and additional +RP reward you would get for playing it. On the right of the vehicle you would play was also a booster, but I have no idea would it be a booster you get right away, or one you get as an award.Now I think it would be a neat system that would encourage people to play vehicles they never even tried, only rushed past through.
>>493519659sounds fun but does nothing for mei spade every vehicle i unlock and refuse to move on until it's done
>>493509804I recently started playing too; I'm playing America because I'm American. Hope this helps!

>>493526516Play Sweden as well as Italy and you'll get the best of GB as well as a whole bunch of other shit.

>>493528061no i just want to fuck with him in a tangible way. He's so fucking salty about everything and that's my entertainment. It would make my day to see him ranting about gaijin, wanting to do a lawsuit. Imagine being a 40yo bullying people on fucking war thunder
>>493528061You don't get it chudcel, obsessing over random people on the internet is for le based sigma BVLLs or something.
>>493509804unironically japan since the grind is relatively fast
>>493490975Did air assault to get chaff, ground targets to get R-60s and then G-suit + New boosters, and then I gave up and used GE to get the R-27ER1 and the R-60MK. THEN it became a usable plane. Really fun to play but if you play too well you end up being the last one alive.
>>493527713It's for people who were born there who have Stockholm syndrome and probably hum "It's a long way to Tipperary" while playing.I know this because I am one,
>>493527639Got my Evalina from the warbond shop and i enjoy it, use it frequently during events and for daily tasks. It's just a Mustang, but all the braindead muttstangs are on the enemy team.
Will Pasta Osa be coming in the next update? Or was is just leaky leaks?
>>493527639The American one gets a nigger in the cockpit, you don't.That's about the best feature for it I guess.Also since it's an "American" plane it enjoys being below the BR it's supposed to be at.Rule of thumb is that you buy 75% discount stuff. You might end up finding a gem.

Tirpitz before the end of the year. I predicted the Grippy last year
>>493543119Kinda sad that there's literally zero way gaijin can fix this issue unless they remove top tier US prems, though when you do get decent US mains they just shit on everything.

>>493540973Been using the Alcione though and it's actually pretty damn good, decent event vehicle and you grind out events at rank 5. Glad I did the grind last time.
I probably shouldn't give gaijin money, but the hue hue pack is pretty interesting
>>493545981Meteor is a decent 8.0 fighter and has a very high SL modifier. AMX is kind of mid though.

>>493547143Yes, and as a bonus you get to grind out British air rank 1-6!
>>493547297i dont even really need to do sobut its just so much cheaper plus the GE bonus being pretty big too, and the camo you get being pure sexim really thinking about it
>STILL no sapsan pod for SMTfuck gaijews why cant Russia have 1 decent cas?
>>493547556I've got it and I like it, pretty good turnfighter with quite a lot of ammo but you're not as fast as many others around so need to watch your energy. You can earn a load of SL with it.

I just launched war thunder for the first time in 4 weekswhat should I playhow am i still not kicked from shartg lmao
>>493550545idk but momosex (with me)
you gotta be fucking kidding melast time I checked it said that 12000lb bomb needs tier 2 researchnow I have to grind to tier 4
>>493527713Because it came way before and then gaijin rather than making skins just took chunks out of other trees and put them in others, and said " grind it again goy".
Might as well be a sub-tree of India.
>>493548202its been a lot more fun than expected so far
>>493527713Because all military vehicles have a right to exist within War Thunder. Copypasta, papperwaffen, Pervitin fueled collective nightmares of military engineers? I want it all. As flawed as it is, War Thunder is one of the best frameworks for all these things to co-exist and to be preserved and enjoyed by everyone.

>>493558309Jesus.
>>493558362It's actually the low-tier artillery (formerly 122 mm HE) that's been buffed to be the same as mid- and high-tier arty (152 mm HE) a while ago.

>helicoptersYou either nigger rush with rockets and get knocked out instantly, hopefully getting a kill.Or spawn later and sit at 8km+ chucking ATGMs, then landing to reload.It's a nigger loop. It was a mistake. Helicopters should be removed
>>493559624No, they're a sorely wasted opportunity and should be given a proper, well-developed gamemode of their own.
>>493559624>>493559898Give Helicopters a mode like that one PS1 game where you stomp a shitload of ground units and do little missions, and don't make it on a huge map where you have to spend 20 minutes flying to the objective.

>>493566992>>493566873retard here. can someone explain to me why that number is so crazy?
>>493562968should've jumped in the game while it was new, latelet
>>493567545That amount of boost is going to put a ton of pressure on the cylinder walls. Enclosed space+pressure = a bomb, basically. Stands a good chance of blowing up the engine.

I've been running the German tech tree since starting a week ago. I've been playing 1.3 and mincing people with the 20mm cannons for awhile now - I technically have 5.0 br unlocked, I just haven't played them much as I'm struggling to find a load out that feels right.Every time I run into a KV-1E I feel like I picked the wrong nation.What's a comfortable BR to sit at for the german tree?
SimGOATS what's this thing like in sim?Worth a cop?
>>4935771193.7 is really nice for germany, your main tanks are the Pz IV F-J all of which will lolpen a kv1. If he's at range/angled hit the drivers vision port or the flat parts of the turret face.
>>493577119The KV-1E is a notoriously underperforming vehicle for it's battlerating and if you are having difficulties against it then I suggest that you learn such tactics as pinging it as a target for an airstrike, preferbly with a friend playing america so he can kamikaze it with CAS built for destroying warships.

>>493577119>>493578675what this guy said, also bind Squad Marker to ~ or something, that creates a free chevron to place pings by without having to shoot or MG or anything and alert a target, can be done from binocular viewconsider slumming .3 BR lower at 3.3, it's a nice varied lineup that uptiers a bit less than 3.7 in exchange for forcing you to use just 1 long barrel Panzer IV G and diversify with TDs or the late Panzer IIIs. If you research the attacker-bomber tree through to the Me 410 A-1 the list will become viable to do Rank III dailies by clicking to spawn it.

I love how getting a spawn behind an island guarantees you lose since the wood brain niggers the game pairs you with park all their ships behind that island and refuse to play the map
sometimes this game is fun
You know what is fun? Coastal.

>>493594536>You'll now get better rewards for each 100 day interval!
>>493594536>>493594214they should've made it like warframe where daily rewards are cumulative and dont require you to log in every single fucking day for the rest of your lifeyou can pick up the rewards for day 27, stop playing for 3 years and the next time you launch the game get the rewards for day 28
>>493595856One lobby softlock yesterday and today one battle went 999/99 tits up like 5 minutes in.Just event things, it's been much worse during crafting era when market speculants were DDoSing the servers for days to kill the supply.
Maybe I'm just getting lucky but 6.7 Germany is a nuke printer. Even in a full up tier if the enemy team doesn't have a deep bench of 7.7 tanks you do just fine.
>>493600795For me it was 6.3 Russia but yeah that BR seems to be pretty easy to get nukes with.

Can someone explain how to get the torpedo kills challenge done?I've got 1 kill in like 20 matches.Help.
>>493603063I’m not the one posting femboy shit, fucking nasty
>>493603430why are you looking at women and thinking of men?
>>493603506>no tits>bulky waist>broad shoulders>man assYou’re not fooling anyone retard
>>493603718homosexual
>>493603825Ok fag here’s your last fucking (You). Stop being a fag
>>493604029>can't stop thinking of men>calls someone else a fag
>>493600343Ahh ok, mine was luckily only for a couple matches and seems to have fixed itself, but I've almost never seen it that bad before

I need to stop bringing APHE as Japan above 5.0 I keep bouncing off barrels. I just need to take every crew out individually, I never see a target armored enough to use APHE and not so armored that I can't pen with-out HEATFS
>>493604154I've been using the BTD which has 2 of the torpedoes the f6f has and even when hitting reserve destroyers with both of them, it isn't killing them.If I was more cynical I would say Gaijin has drastically nerfed torpedo damage just for this task, but they wouldn't do that surely.
>>493605096It's invaluable for side shots.
>>493605167Torpedoes have always done low damage unless you hit the magazines. Anywhere else is just killing compartment+crew and permanently flooding it.
>>493605446Funny how I always get one shot by them even when they hit my fucking propeller though.
>>493605541The key is to design better ships. I've never been 1-shot by a torp that didn't hit ammo in some way. Even some cuckstal ships can survive torps.
>>493602106nakadashi fubuki
>>493603420Step 1: Get the ShimakazeStep 2: Play naval arcadeStep 3: dump torps on cooldown at enemy spawnStep 4: hide behind an island or something while you wait for more torpsShould only take you a couple matches. You just have to be patient.

I bought the hue hue pack
>>493466758this one might be a bug, struck the barbette
>Basically no armor >20mm autocanon as main armament>Only a machine gun for secondary armament>7.7
>>493466758and mind you these are fairly close range 6-8km kills
>>493606801Not a bug. American ships have ammo stored in the barbettes. It doesn't always happen but most good penetrating hits to the barbette will det a US ship.
>>493466758this one might be a mine kill
?
>>493603420>>493603420Also, I've noticed that getting kills from fires or sinking caused by torpedoes isn't counting for the task. You have to instakill them.This must have been why they added the more detailed kill indicators.Fucking cunts.
