I so like the 9040.
i just peepee poopoo my pants...
>>502498162Then you might be interested in the 9050
>>502498907
r3 t20 should go back to being 3.3
Eternal reminder to fly the harriers~

>>502499734>>502499815look how scrawny the chinaman is
I'm finally back into the game after a several year break. Turns out sticking with your team and not trying for constant aggressive flanks is both more fun and more productive
coming back to this game after almost 7 years, is gaijin still retarded?
>>502502347The update has been delayed for a week because they wanted to implement motion blur.
>>502502529lol
SU-57B fucking SSSSSSSSSSSSUCKS bro.
>>502502347retarded is putting it lightly
>>502502347they banned 25k players because their RNG mechanics make teamkills happen (missles going haywire and tracking friendlies, artillery being RNG, blockbuster bombs)
>>502502347literally fucking nothing has changed other than new slop to dump rp and sl into

daily reminder that you're a fucking retard if you're playing this event.
I haven't played since the F-14 event
>>502505894I already have the IS-7 so why would I bother
im playing air arcade
>arkaden
ive never played an event before how do u even 'play' these 'events' i just click play on the top of my screen
>>502507168this is who's bloating your teams btw
grinding tonks is so slow it's unreal (compared to airshit)
why are m36 players the most unaware of the entire game
>>502508273Furnigger made a video recently how it was the best TD in the game br for br.
>>502508431i mean, even before that which im guessing was fairly recent
>>502508431never saw but how did he explain away me dunking a HE shell into the turret every time I see one?
>>502512854i always carry he but don't remember caring enough to unload my ap into the ground should really stop bothering to take he
>>502515963It's always nice when you come across two tanks and you can load HE for the second, or if you manage to beef your first shot on a lone Achilles, or if it's something colossal and is going to take 2 shots anyway like an Emil
Can I ask you a personal question?What are you grinding for?IS7? I have a proposition for you.I'm grinding for the IS7, we kinda cancel each other out. You know, this dogshit event? why don't we get the hell out of here?>https://youtu.be/Xq7NrTVl9qk?si=iIrVS5hsxKaVuF4B&t=117
>>502517150I don't grind for anything ever.
>>502515963ALWAYS take HE. Use AP as a disabling shot on open tops and finish off with HE. It's also invaluable for taking out light/no armored vehicles hiding behind cover. I've killed countless light vehicles that thought they were safe until I popped them with an HE round to a track, top MG, or even the ground next to them. It's worth the guaranteed kill rather than praying RNG doesn't fuck your follow up AP shots.
>>502507168>how do u even 'play' these 'events'dependsif it's a score/crafting event, then you can "play" it in the normal matchmaking, you just have to satisfy the conditionsusually it is vehicles over rank III with higher rank ones getting better score multipliers. You can find the specific tasks in the challengers/tasks/missions/whatever the screen that tracks that stuff is called (the one that also has the pages of history listed)as for the meme events (like the current one) with separate matchmakers, you have to click on events and tournaments, and there you can find the special matchmaker (this current event also has a special task to keep track of your score/ticket)
>>502515963>see light tank/opentop/SPAA>shoot with AP>doesn't die in one hit>switch to HE to guarantee it dies in the nextit's that simplejust turn on your brain
>>502518796Nothing but largest trucks will survive the 2nd AP hit.
>>502517397yeah doinking somebody in the mg is the most valid one imo but the opportunity arises like once in a hundred matches
Anyone want to fly ww2 sim battles with me?
>>502519521ok install il2gb
>>502519884just remembered that i bought the game and quite a few packs but never really played it beyond testing for an hour or sois it still alive?
>>502519884It's already installed. I'm tired of it. The damage model for .50 cals makes playing as Americans painful. The P-47 is sluggish in that game. I love me the P-51. Flight model in the P-51 is way better than WT's. >>502520095Yeah, there are some active servers.
>>502520095>>502520419i'd play it more but the spotting is abyssmal, staring at nothing until u see a tiny black dot, and that one server spams the fuck out of early eastern front i'm so fucking tired of it, and the other server that spams late war stuff has no map GPS which honestly is more annoying than i can be bothered to deal with
>>502519884I only have 1946
>>502521681based
BRIT MAINS ASSEMBLEWhich two of these three should I use in my 8.3 line up?>vicker Mk1 is a good all rounder>vickers Mk3 is very fast, but the round seems lacking>olifant had good round for the tier, but average mobilityI wanna keep the conq, swingfire, chieftan marksman and eland as the rest of my slots are for air, so it's gonna be down to removing the cent Mk10 and maybe the vickers Mk 1Thought???
>brit gluttons, assemble!
>>502523229ditch the conqueror and take all 3 teebeeaych, there's nothing the vickers can't pen that the conqueror can, and that slow piece of shit is bad even at 7.7
>>502523229>vickers Mk3 is very fast, but the round seems lackingIt has less flat pen, but better angled pen than the MK 1 so effectively it is about the same. Vickers maxxing is the way to go here, Olifant just plays like a slower leo 1 imo
>>502523229Take the olifant and fling smoke shells everywhere.
>>502523363>brit gluttons, assemble!>fish and chips intensifies
>>502523229Do what >>502523609 said and ditch the conq and take all 3, that thing is ass. Also why no fox or warrior?
>>502523609>>502523897>>502524195>>502524502thanks boys, I'll take all 3 for now and see how it fairs o7>Also why no fox or warrior?i swap out the fox the eland once and while for variety, and I don't have the warrior yet, am still newfrog to brits in ground
OH SHIT A FUCKIN STEAL!
>>502525930desu if they were 75% or even 50% it would at least be worth considering
>>502525930never take the 40% discounts
do I need Flight stick for sims mode?
>>502520419>The damage model for .50 cals makes playing as Americans painfulIt what's War Thunder's .50s should be so that they can tone cannon rounds down to realistic levelsNot seeing any damage apart from a plane being blown to bits or dying from a catastrophic fire ripping them apart in 10 seconds is Michael Bay tier shit and is boring as fuck.
is it just me or is the P-51 series Underpowered as shit?>P-40 F4U, Corsair, P-47, will take a punch and boom and zoom.>P-38 will outrun anyone or anything.>P-51 can't turn for shit, can't outrun anything, is generally underpowered, and is more fragile A6M2 soaked in Gasoline with a 14-year-old pilot.why does the snail hate the most legendary American fighter?
>>502527954>why does the snail nerf all the good shit, and leave USSR overtuned planes untouchedhmmm!
>>502527954only the cannon p51 and the D models are slow techically bad at their BRs, with the D-30 being an outlierthe C and H models are incredible
>>502526898you can cope with a controller if you're good
>>502527954>this fucking retard is the reason why we don't have historical matchmaking anymoredisgust doesn't even make justice to what i feel for you animals
what's a good rig to have everything maxed out and looking nice, with the hq models and also good frames? maybe not movie-tier per say but still have it look how it shouldnot really going for ray-tracing unless it comes with the territory
why is it that in 99% of matches my teammates will sit within 100m of spawn the entire match and the enemy team will always push straight into our spawn capping everything completely unopposed?
>>502528830doesn't take much, I have a sit AMD 1600 CPU and a 5700 GPU system on all high settings, shit never drops below 120 fps
>>502528947>why does MY team always losehmmm, seems you're the only common denominator here!
>>502528947because there comes a time where you realize win/loss gives you about the same amount of rewards so there's no need to risk your neck, and personal performance aka playing it safe farming kills gets you the most bang for your buckthe people running around like headless chickens thinking objectives are the way to grind are usually people that started to play recently or havent but are stuck with a weird outdated mentality, and are generally badcamping is the way to go, even moreso at high tier with thermals and drones and helicopters making things easier to spot and find
>>502529090we dont always lose. nice strawman though you illiterate nigger.my team is incapable of pushing
>>502528830everything maxed you're looking at a correctly balanced ~$1500 build for something that'll run at 200+ fps at 1440p with your gaytracing and other mega taxing settingsif you want to just play on the "max" preset, I built a ~$800 a770 + 12600kf rig that runs it from 140 to 200 fps at 1440p but that's with an iffy intel card
>>502528973got a ry3 3100 is that good enough or am i in boomer territory? i dont know much about computers sorry
>>502529526since you're on am4 you could pop a 5600 or any x3d chip in to make use of your current ram and motherboard what's gpu and resolution are you running?
>>502529674havent gotten to that part yet, i'm ordering everything as we speaki think i should clarify, i can confidently say i won't play anything besides war thunder or the odd retro (pre 2010s) vidya so i don't need to go overkill on iti just don't want the game to look like ass, and yes i know it's a heavily modified 2009 game engine refurbished every 4 years to make it seem modern but still able to be played by 3rd world russian pcs
>>502529889what resolution are you thinking of using? resolution would determine your graphics card, which then determines a cpu good enough to not bottleneck the gpu, etc.
>>502497123applied to wartg f_rI resubmitted the application
>>502530412you're in, fart_sniffer
applied to wartgbussy_smasher420
>>502528973>I have a sitI have a shit** FFFFUCK>>502529526the CPU is a lil on the weaker side, should prob upgrade to any of the 5XXXx3d's, but once a dedicated GPU that's gonna be the biggest performance increase
>there are people in this general actually trying to win the IS-7 by playing that stupid fucking eventidiots, the lot of you
I FUCKING HATE SPITFIRES
troled
>>502532038I hate Jap fighters even more.
>>502532038well they hate you, so i guess we're even
>>502523229>Thought???play a real nation
>>502532038total ufo death
blows my mind how many people will teamkill in ground sim, how do you mistake a NATO tank for rus/chink shit
>>502534803they didn't, they were an imposter
>>502528554>>this fucking retard is the reason why we don't have historical matchmaking anymore.lol dude if they made the P-51 historically accurate it would 9/10 battles, but Gaijin gives it wheelchair tier performance.I absolutely dominated in Historical battles, took out the P-40, boom and zoomed the shit out of Japs. and that alternate history Berlin map where you fight the Soviets, Russian bias didn't exist when I flew the Warhawk.
>>502535317how fucking retarded are you?
>kikes literally have a jet called Saarexplain yourselves vile shlomos
>russians crying about german bias>in a fucking 9.3 matchyou love to see it
>>502534803>game is made to be as painful as possible so that you spend money to progress faster>oh hey! theres a game mode that says it has better multipliers, maybe that will help this be less painfulthats how, theres brainlets and newniggers in that gamemode
/sp/ on fight night mogs every board on the site
>patch on 1000th day anniversary
what vehicle have you acquired a nuke in that you wouldn't have thought was possible?I've gotten two with the Falcon.
>>502537523Rakket in an uptier was a pleasant surprise.
>>502537126People that say this about 9.3 and 10.3 seriously need to be killed. BMP3 is one of the most blantantly undertiered vehicles in the game and it's not even close because how fucking good this thing it, I love it>>502537523M60A2, turret armor is surprisingly trolly and playing this chunky boy hull downed is fun as fuck
>>502537523>I've gotten two in a handcrushing vehicle
>>502537523>>502537878Every fucking time I spawn something like a Falcon or Gepard the ENTIRE enemy team is heavies and MBTs who play safe as fuck and refuse to be flanked. No helis or CAS either of course. Compared to spawning first in any lightly armored vehicle and I face nothing but 30+ mm SPAA and get turned to atoms instantly.
>>502537523was once less than 100 points away from nuke only using flakrakrad
>sell horrible bong tank at 9.0>it's the same as the 8.7 tech tree version>literally only a jew would buy this level of scamguys, I think gajin is secretly based
>>502537523never got a nuke in my 12 years of playing
>>502537523I got one in a centurion mark 10, but the match ended right as the nuke hit the ground lol
>>502538631>the goyim knowsShut it down!
>>502538631It has a battering ram. That's worth a br increase.
>>502538631they run scams not buy into them m8
>>502538367>VCC-80/60my fucking nigger, i love that vehicle
>>502539274only the smart ones, the rest will buy it cuz "muh HOMELAND"
I return again to preach to you about the PLZ83-130.Friends, snag it while it is plentiful and cheap.It has a slightly different cannon than the Object279 but it fires the same shell. It fucking wrecks in China's 8.0/8.3 lineup
KV-85 is so fucking good. Needed two heavy kills, rolled it out by itself to get a couple lazy ones and return to hanger. Ended up getting 6 in the first few minutes compared to at most 2 for anyone else in the game.
>>502539495>I return again to preach to you about the PLZ83-130.
>>502538807Honestly just play the same blatantly undertiered vehicles over and over for an entire session. The nukes I've gotten have definitely been somewhat luck based and aided by good vehicles but more than anything I attribute them to just getting in the fucking zone and not thinking about my actions. Being quick is better than being good a lot more often than you'd think.
>>502539812i really do want you guys to experience this thing. It's a dirt cheap lead slinger and it has a proximity shell for aircraft. I just don't want you guys to miss out on how fun this thing is
>>502539495>fucking wrecks in China>ChinaNo thanks I'd sooner play Israel lmao!
>>502539902oh yea totally, I think it's just because I main Japan which has some good tanks but nothing really standout. Staying alive in a tank made of paper (albeit with a good gun) is an achievement of it's own
>get uptier in 5.7 and below >No big deal I can manage >get uptier in anything above 6.7>Literally unbeatable matches How can we have 3 76 Sherman almost full BR apart Meanwhile 8.0 and 8.7 tanks are like worlds apart in term of performance
>>502540016lmao no
>>502540192>I main Japan
>>502540236changes in ammunition were rapid in those times, we went from APHE to HEAT, then to two types of sabot in like 30 or so years so obv uptiers will be drastically more felt around 8.0-10.0 BRgajin should change the full uptier shit to 0.6 instead of a flat 1 and this wouldn't be nearly as much of a problem, instead of manually needing to push tanks up in BR all the time to decompress lol>>502540192>I think it's just because I main JapanGRIIIIIIIM
>>502540192>I main Japanpain
>>502540192>I main JapanI too made this mistake, anon-chan.
>people actually play China lol, completely dead end treethey already have their best MBT and it sucks
>>502540192My highest ranked nation is Britain. Even I can't imagine the pain of playing mostly tanks that look like they were designed in crayon.
>>502528830literally any sort of budget (1000 USD) build will handle WT even at 1440p with 120/144hzadd in 500 more if you want raytracingbelieve or not, warthunder is pretty optimized when it comes to hardware requirements
>>502540192Don't listen to the turboshitters. There's nothing wrong with playing Japan.Except for missing out on all the copy-paste Leopards at top tier. Pre-order your SEAmonkey premium today to get a head start on the new subtree and get all the vehicles you've already played in other trees, again!
>>502537665BMP-3 is good but it's no BMD-4the T-64B is a bigger 9.3 undertiered niggerbunker>3BM42>niggerbunker with krokshit era that will eat darts)))>good forward speedthe only bad thing about it is the reverse gear but honestly it's such a niggerbunker that I never find myself needing to reverse
>>502537523never gotten a nuke but the first time that I was one kill away, I got the majority of kills/points with the ZSU-57-2
>>502540192I got nukes in everything from STAs to TKX. You just suck.
>>502540591>>502540632>>502540760>>502540903honestly the Type 61 and Type 74 lines are a lot of fun, and the Type 90 and TKX are a nice reward for sticking it out to the endthat being said, I'm probably moving on to sweden now
any info in the new BTRs coming? is it confirmed or just>"it's in the files bro trust me">gets added in 2026)))))?
>>502537523I never get a single nuke
>>502541443>moving on to sweden nowYou've earned the hand flattening king.
>>502541407I began playing sim a lot more from the STA's onward so that may explain some too. Hopping back to GRB in the Type 74, I'm gonna go for it

some m&kb controls questions if anyone knows1) in air mode when i press LALT to track the selected enemy with camera, it opens chat and gives me a cursor, which disables my controls. is there any way to disable that? i found nothing in controls anywhere.2) also in air mode, sometimes (rarely) my camera randomly zooms in and there is nothing i can do to zoom it out... what could be causing that? i looked through every camera setting, and i can't reproduce it3) is there any way to turn off the smoothing/interpolation on free-camera-look in air mode? it takes so long to look behind my plane then forward again. ofc i tried turning down all smoothing settings etc but it seems to only affect controller

Is it safe to assume that Russia will get the Tor when the BRs are decompressed enough that it and the Pansir are sufficiently far away from each other? Currently it wouldn't fill any gaps, but if Ground BRs were decompressed to 13.7 and the Pantsir went there while the chink Tor stayed at 11.7-12.7, there would be a genuine place for a Russian one.>inb4 "Russia doesn't need it"It's an iconic, mass produced, kino vehicle so it does, just like mutts need a TT M8 Greyhound they technically don't really "NEED" need.
Such an amazing helicopter held back by its dogshit air to ground missiles...
russia never produced any kinoit's all slop for homos and the mentally reduced
>>502549548No idea since I'm not at that BR and am not a big air player but I've asked similar questions and have been very grateful for the answers, so I'll bump your question.
>>502549548The options you're looking for are under "Common", just select that tab then search for 'mouse' and you should see "Show Mouse Cursor" (your first problem) and options for mouse smoothing and mouse camera look sensitivity.As for the second problem, check what you have bound to zoom (also under common)
>>502551232ah thanksonly one this didn't fix was the smoothing/floatiness of freelook camera, but after googling and seeing other complaints about it, i think its just an inherent thing in warthunder that you can't change sadlyin any case ty

I GOT IT AGAINFUCK OFF GAIJIN
>>502551716gaijin wants you to know that those two vehicles are devastating at that br
>>502551716That’s way better than what they offer most people
>>502551716i never get these "personal" offersits a shame
>>502551974lol no it's not, it's still a measly 40% off when there are at least two guaranteed, predictable 50% sales every year
GAIJINNNNNNN
>>502552032Sales are still the best but they’ve shown me way worse lineups at 30% so at least they’re pretending to offer a good deal
when the fuck is the updateif the game already looks like this atm i need to see what it looks like with even better graphics
>>502552201PostFX settings?
>>502527828lol. Il-2 GB is not your answer. The way HE is simulated is just a big explosion. You can get shot in the left wingtip with a single 131 round and all your control surfaces on both wings can get blown off. Meanwhile, they don't have API for US planes. AP damage to planes causes little to no aerodynamic damage to German planes. You can hammer a 109 with 1-2 seconds of sustained fire and if you don't hit their engine, they'll be able to out turn you all the same as if you didn't shoot them at all. I've actually had both of the above happen to me at the same time and I've never been more angry at a game.
>>502552023I got the exact same deal yesterday and that was my first personal offer ever. Idk what triggers it, maybe spending because I bought a wyvern and the t55 during the sale.
>>502549075>>502549075im not seeing this at all in my hanger, wtf
>>502552781i bought and gifted a decent amount of things on the sale, no such offers though. i think i have gotten one once in 4000hrs
>>502552481it's insane how long people have complained about these damage model issues on il2gb and they have done nothing to fix it. i remember 50cals topics in the forums were getting locked and the devs would just say shit like 'it takes 100 rounds of 50cal to make a hole the same size that a single german HE 13mm makes'i can see war thunder leveraging gameplay imbalance to create sales because of their f2p model, but it makes no sense for things to be so off in a sim like il2gb lol

A few days ago it was proven on video that 120mm DM23 can punch through the ERA and front armor of the T-72B3MFix when?
>>502561123Never, because WT doesn't simulate any variables, like individual quality. Everything is perfect as it's on paper.
>>502561123>I saw sparks, that means it must've been destroyed
>>502561380except there was literal fire coming out of the tank, even the leopard's crew moved to another target
>>502561468they moved to other targets and then later on re engaged because in the end it was most likely fire coming from a fuel compartmentthe t-72 only got disabled once the tank showed its back after about the 4th shot hit it and then a 5th in the engine deck disabled it

I personally drove a T-72B3M (factory spec) into battle yesterday and shrugged off multiple hits from a Leopard 4. Instead of wasting ammo on such a trivial target, I got up close and simply pried off the Leopard's turret using my barrel. The crew exploded in fire.

>>502595815It's only a very marginal upgrade, if they don't model the drag properly it will not matter whatsoever.
is the Pucara still in the files
>>502595815Is that gonna help or will it be just as atrocious as the R-77? Right now the Su-34 is on my go to grind list behind the F-15E and a bunch of low tier crap simply because the R-77s are useless.
>>502596396no retarded grid fins so the drag on them won't be fucking awful anymore
>grinding brit planes air ab without premiumgonne be a ruff month
>>502596569The R-77-1 is literally just an R-77 with localized production parts and a weak sustainer. The fins wouldn't be a problem anyway if gayjin wasn't fucking retarded and actually bothered to model them, but nothing Soviet/Russian is allowed their proper competitive FMs, not the planes and not the missiles.
>>502596396the R-77-1 will be a marginal improvement over the base one. but it still faces the problem of its fins being literal airbrakes once the motor burns out>>502596569retard-sama i kneel
>>502596569Grid fins only have increased drag when transsonic. At supersonic speeds they often have less drag/improved maneuverability over planar fins. The drag modelling in game for them is just whack.
>>502596830>but it still faces the problem of its fins being literal airbrakes once the motor burns outI thought the cause for that was incorrect drag modelling for grid fins, and the R-77-1 has planar ones?
>>502596968>The drag modelling in game for them is just whack.It's not "whack", it's straight up non-existant since the drag value is static across all speeds. It's a fantasy FM through and through, a recurring theme with Russian air stuff in general.
>Grid fins only have increased drag when transsonicI have yet to see any evidence for this claim
>>502597138>and the R-77-1 has planar onesThe K-77M and K-77ME do, not the R-77-1.
>>502597138there is more drag at all speed regimes. especially at lower altitudes. what gaijin does get wrong is that its drag is unchanged at higher altitudes where it shouldn't be a problem. however, below 10,000 feet, the grid fins are a detriment
>>502537523M4A3E8. Germans are just that bad.
>>502595815What is this picture showing? 77-1's have been in the files since fox3s have been added. Gaijin just refuses to add them even though they'd still be subpar.
>>502560829
>>502553479lmao i got banned from the forums for telling jason to go fuck himself. He's since left the IL-2 team and nuked the bridges, basically calling the devteam a bunch of stupid slavs and implying they didn't fix API because of anti-US bias.

>>502603570Notice how for the K-77M it says "conventional fins" while for the R-77-1 it's only "new fins". Clearly that means the R-77-1's fins are still unconventional, aka grid fins.>>502603834The R-77-1 is about as different from the R-77 as the R-27ER is from the R-27R. Better? Yes.

The radar will try to swap to standard modes to maintain the lock but that's easily countered with chaff or ground clutter.

>>502634378you just don't get itI NEED my soviet shitbox that get shat on in its own br bracketyou cant win if you dont play
i had my first crash of 2024 when trying to spawn a plane in grbwhich made me curious, how often does war thunder crash for the rest of /wtg/?
>>502628958thanks anon, i'll look at you and the other anons' suggestions and get whats best for wtmaxxing
>people who bring meme low tier tanks/planes to high tier matches are worthless when you kill them>they get showered with rewards when they luck into a killlegitimately why do they encourage this nigger behavior?
>>502635010Well.
>>502635457>suzunegrodeserved
>>502635010literally at least twice a day in the middle of a match. been like that since I got my RTX 4090 a year ago
>>502633559No I'm just mocking people bothering to waste time in the event and act like it's a big deal, idgaf if you do it, I'm just mocking the waste of time. You're chances of being struck by lightning TWICE is higher than getting one, and people grind it out like "oh em gee gaiz, might get an IS-7!!1 :PPPPDDDDD" lmao>this is the WT version of idiot tax
>want to turn off brain and basebomb>matches full of thirdies, chinkbots, consoleshitter and paypiggiesdid the KV-7 event bring them out of the woodworks or what?
>tank event is the reason why i cant enjoy the plane gamemode :(
>>502623103Nope, they have literal aimbot. The only upside is by getting killed by console shitters enough you can get an easy tell when non-console players are using actual aimbots against you.
>>502634378Reality is maybe 20k people actually complete it but 100k chinks will bot it to sell the account.
>>502633559No, we're just pitying your foolishness in wasting your time on an unfun grind like a rat in a skinner box. We're also in a skinner box, but at least we don't have to play mirror matches against the same casemate TD in arkaden.
>>502636529>You're chances of being struck by lightning TWICE is higher than getting onestill need to see stats for this that aren't made up assumptions about player numbers that at most has 100k ingame at peak.>inb4 assuming every single person who plays warthunder at any hour is grinding the event
>>502636529Your chances are a lot higher than that. Only people with the KV-7 in the first place can play the event, which is probably less than 1/4 of the player base to begin with.
>>502637156it only takes like 15 min to get a ticket plus it's something different than point and clicking in top tierI don't mind it at all
>>502637168there's like 22 tickets max or something
the perfidious anglo stalled me out again
Thinking back to the time I actually tried to main Japan. For the Ki-200.Fucking retard.
>>502637990I miss the old UI.

>>502638713>T 4 6
>>502638713let me guess, un-aced crew?sad, many such cases!
Must have dozens of screencaps of full lobbies quitting the instant they saw sweptwings on the team, kek.
>wish we could turn back time>to the good ol daaays~
>im le oldfag! give me attention!we get it
>>502637168it's not 100k people, it's like 20-30 thousand bots and only a few thousand humans lol
>>502639124Meanwhile Tempest and Typhoon against Me 163s.
>>502639459>newfag sour grapes postingwe get it
why does WARTG still use brackets for the squadron tag?looks dated, why can't we have fancy decorators?
I distinctly remember this period of B-17 cancer but I can't remember why. Think it was when they bumped bomber survivability and they became death stars? Or maybe it was an XP boost.Also,im le oldfag! give me attention!
I'd rather have the oldfag attention whore than suzun*ku and co
>>502639459boy you mustve been really pissed off you're seething at everything today lmao
>>502640001Looking now I think it was the combo of death star DM + airfield bombing insta-winning.Crazy how these couple months literally 10 years ago is the reason bombers are still broken today.Also,im le oldfag! give me attention!
>>502639762most of the fancy decorators are locked behind doing sqbs. which we should fucking do anyways since its free GE if you arent a complete shitter
>>502640556lowiq and ng508 has way better players than shartgfags
>>502640639im in lowIQ, we should do sqbs
>>502640639lol
>>502640287no talkie before coffee
Why is everyone ITT so angry all the time?
>>502640727>>502640556>>502640639the hardest part about doing sqbs would be getting all the autists in a voice chat of some sort, which almost never goes well.>>502640854have you even played War Thunder before?
>>502640925Yes? Doesn't explain the constant rage I see in here.You don't see it as often or even at all in the rest of the catalog.
I'm sorry for being rude, I am trying to basebomb and I keep getting killed by consoleshitters
>>502641060>game is designed to piss players off>players get pissed offsimple as
Member sim battles? Quit the game for 8 years when they removed it/locked it behind the retarded curated lobbies.One of the few things I wish would come back from le old days.I'm an oldfag btw if that matters.
>>502641086but you are a consoleshitter yourself doe
>halfway through spading Su-7B>suddenly start getting oil overheating like a minute into the matchweirdit only started happening after getting Wing Repair kek
>>502641318map with particularly high ambient temp or something?
>>502637363I mean, if you wanna throw away 1:15 for multiple days go ahead, I just think it shows you lack logical thinking about the value of things. Even if you should win, you just wasted a ton of luck on something not that great compared to alternatives.
>>502641401Only two matches since then>Mysterous Valley>SpainSpain does seem to have high temps but I don't think not-China does
why cant wtg do this on the regular?https://youtu.be/TZ4V8GWIl_Q?si=GCH0WWFBWT2opeV-

>>502642659aliexpress soviets, no thanks
>>502642742I'm enjoying it
>>502641710cuz I don't play busted undertiered russkie shit
>>502642659it's about aesthetics first and foremost looking good is the single most important thingbugshit has none of it
>>502641793such raw copium is a rare sight these days
>>502642891objectively falsethe PTZs look sexy, the WMA looks good, all their weird IFVs look better than russias. their MBTs look like more modern versions of Russias. they have great aesthetics.
>>502641793I can play on your war thunder account if your HRT treatment is affecting your skill level :)
>there are people in this thread right now
>>502642659post 3 full china line ups
>>502642659I did. Got a 10.0 lineup and took a break. Now I grind Israel.
>>502641710Surely nobody couldn't have been that retarded and not hear him coming wtf, anyone that tried to pull that maneuver usually insta dies in my games anyway
>>5026435926.3/6.78.09.0 (god tier lineup)10.0everything between 10.0 and 12 is very good
>>502643947I said the LINEUPS, not the BR's you goober
>>502643840You forget that many warthunder players are mentally challenged or playing with speakers/on console so they have no directional audio
>>502644057I know what you said, what I said explains the exact same thing except easier. What dont you understand?
i play on speakers because fuck having to put on headphones for this shit gamei don't have trouble looking around on ulq thoughbeit
>>502634853>>502636981i'm accounting to 1\3 the confirmed and stated DAILY ONLINE playerbase (only pc)

>>502644470>this is your average 10.0 china line up vehicleGRIM
>>502641793sure buddy, padded k/d is the reason why you're shit at the game
>>502644820that thing is genuinely fun though
>>502644390according to?
>>502644820prime example of bugshit having no aesthetics the only bug vehicle i can get behind is that mig-23 copy with fixed wings, that's just funky
>>502645118thunderskill
>>502644820what the fuck is this monstrosity
>>502644820That thing is absolutely dogshit.
two of my favorite China lineups, 9.0 has a bunch of other options besides the premiums.
>>502644820grimnot sure how chinamen are so proud of their papershit when it looks like this>>502645151agreed, literally the only relatively cool looking chinese vehicle ingame

>>502644093that's true, beats having whatever current shitty matchmaking other AAA pvp games are incorporating these days
>>502617338>when is that expected to release? i remember seeing some images of extreme high detail models from that game.I'd guess late 2025, early 2026 at the earliest. >runs like shit, runs even shittier in VRThat's why I've been playing WT so much. It's hands down the best of all these games for VR. >>Microsoft Combat Flight Sim>didn't even know that was a thingI've heard nothing yet, but they can't build that new flight simulator engine and NOT do a combat sim.

Lets have some positive posts for a bit:How have you improved over the last few years of playing? I've definitely learned to have a lot more patience when it comes to doing well in matches. I used to get antsy when I didnt get kills right off the bat.I've learned to appreciate tanks that I had written off as useless due to them having a shell I didnt like that didnt pen much or something like that.
>>502647594I have perfected the act of the goonvke meta.
>>502647594you talk like a fag and your shits all retarded
>>502648056your charts fucked up, and nobody likes you
if you give bans for TKs dont be surprised when we do the work arounds
how come we get protoshit like the Su-9 and Su-11 (1946) and not the actually produced Su-9, 11 and 15?hell add the RS-1U (K-5[M]), the R-8 (or R-8M [R-98) and the R-55 missiles. It would make mid tier soviet jets fun
>>502649031pretty sure you can get banned for that if he bothers to send replay to stona
What's so great about the KV-1 and KV-2? They seem to explode super easy for me.
>>502649320you definitely can get banned for that. "Intentional Ramming"
>>502642535>>502642957>>502643345I was making fun of the lowiq tards landing and quitting with that reference, guess it wasn't clear.Stat padders will eat losses because they're scared of better players.
we are getting closer bros :)
>>502649471They're only good against bads(there are a lot of these).
>>502649031Sent webm to Stona, enjoy your bans.#SLAINBYSQUIDLY#SQUIDDIPPERS#SQUID UNION#JOINTHEUNION
>i was merely pretending to be joking about being retarded u guise!!!>le same stat padder boogeyman copeoutkek you really thought you had something there huh
>>502649031people can still manually report you with a clip, that's how people with single digit TK's get a week ban, compared to people with hundreads lol
>>502649304>wanting more slop filler>not only that, but objectively WORSE slop filler because it'll either be underpowered or overtiered
Can someone explain why this mediocre blob is at 9.3?
>w4rtg
>>502650396to punish brit players
>>502650396Mediocre compared to what at 9.3?I love Gal Batash with all my might, is it better or worse than Khalid?
5k games in both the homare b7a2 and sm.92 and still gets buttmad when you don't let him play aimlabs with his tailgunner
>>502650396sometimes i think lots of tanks between 8.7 and 10.7 have their brs assigned randomly
I love this thing like you wouldn't believe
>>502650301>nooo only america is allowed to have hundreds of interesting mid tier jetsAdd the Su-9 and folder the 11 thenThe Su-15 can be a separate one
amazing how shit the R-23s are compared to the R-24sit's day and nightat least the 23Ts make the Mig-23M usable (got a tali for it so I might as well use it)
>>502651156>nooo only america is allowed to have hundreds of interesting mid tier jetsname one(1) thing this slavslop would do significantly different compared to the shit your already bloated- sorry, INTERESTING MID TIER jet ranks can't do>NOOOO I NEED THIS SLIGHTLY MODIFIED VERSION OF THIS LOW PRODUCTION VEHICLE SO I CAN TICKLE MY TISMS PLEASE>I KNOW I'LL ONLY PLAY IT 3 TIMES AND WONT EVEN SPADE IT BUT PLEASE WASTE TIME ADDING THIS SHIT JUST FOR MEEEE ME ME MEEEEEEEEEEEE ADD IT FOR MEEEEEEEE>*ends up with 11 magachs*
>burgercord melty at the mere suggestion of russia/USSR getting anything remotely interestinggrim
>>502651156Su-9 and 11 would be nearly unusablesame reason we will never get a F-102 in game
*taps mic*AHEMkommyhuct
>>502650819>Mediocre compared to whatleo 1A5's, T-72's, any light rat, hell even the suped up M60's have better firepower, reload and armor than this thing lmao
>>502650396Good gun/round, good mobility, great turret armor. What do you dislike about it?
>>502651462thispurebreed interceptors saffer specially with shitty early missile kitsThe Su-15 is interesting though, can carry R-60s and the R-98s (SARH and IRs) which are medium range (23km, mach 2 [R-98M]]).I can see it being a battlepass or event vehicle
>>502645118steamcharts, MMO charts And (meh) war thunder official forums. Obviously console players are out of the equation
>>502651902Su-15 also could take GSh-23-2 gunpods on the fuselage hardpoints so there is that

what vehicles does he play?
>>502652641exclusively 1.7 US
>>502652641i thought it said "computer water"
>>502651819Round is good that's true. Mobility is only OK for a cheiftain but most other MBT's will round circles around you. Turret armour though is bad at this BR; it's middling in 8.7 at best but at 9.3 you just get lol penned by any apfsds round (not even top tier ones, the mediocre DM23 round just wrecks your turret crew). If you happen to face off against any conventional tank you just get wrecked, but if you wanted to flank instead of doing tratitional hull down, you'd just be better off in a light tank. It really just serves no role in it's current line upThe only reason i even got the thing is I'm a chieftain simp. The better top speed and reverse gear + lazer range finder and the only reason I even use the thing occasionally, but 9.3 is so punishing on this old slow girl I just feel bad for it
>>502651339R-23Ts are shit thoughall-aspect lock range is worse than R-60sMig-23Ms are trash. Radar doesn't even have ACM to at least cope with 23Rsjust use it as a shitty bombtruck
T72B3 nerfed when? 120mm can punch through the front armor and era
>>502651462>same reason we will never get a F-102 in gameThe Falcon / Super Falcon would be fine (better than AIM-9B) the only issue is at low altitude where the lack of a proximity fuse makes killing Fighters difficult.
are there any non homosexual or trooned up squadrons from here to join?>so no lowiq, wartg and w4rtgmine has been dead for a while now, need new frens
>>502653270lowiq and ng508
>>502653048>and the only reason I even useare the only reason** FFFFUCK
>>502653306>lowiq and sh4rtg renamedhe specifically mentioned not those
>>502653270WARTG is the only one that gets 20k sqrp consistently
>>502653395neither of those are gay nor trooned out doe
>>502653439both of those are extremely gay and trooned out
>>502653270the sneed ones are semi active still i think, try one of them
>>502653526wartgroid cope
>>502653234Too bad Gaijin doesn't care. They declared the AIM-4 impossible to add to the game and refuse to change their minds.Probably has a lot to do with not wanting to make a new missile on like 4 aircraft (without mass appeal) would carry when they could spend that time and money copy-pasting the F-16 into every tree.
>>502653270if there was, do you think they'd advertise in sight of the aforementioned?

>>502662203>he needs to prove to himself that hes human every time he wants to shitpost
>>502661993just in time for STALKER 2 to come out so I can ignore this game for a month while I play that
>>502658441Because he is a fag who lifted it from reddit which is something he does often
>>502662380>flopper 2lol
>>502660849literally who and why do we care>>502660595he's friends with ashtroon/runecuck?
>>502662973i dont give a fuck, it will keep me off whore thunder for a month and its at least something different to play when the last several years has been absolutely dogshit for video games
Hi
>>502663358use different bush types, it makes you stand out way less
>>502663358nice try T-90, i know that shape from any bush
>>502663358>plays arcadeWhat now Mr p2w?
>>502663156you are a literal retard
>>502663570so it is one of youthanks for the confirmation
I think european players are just better than NA players based on the simple fact that they have to cope with chinkbots during the dayNA only sees chinkbots at late night/midnight
>>502663839>NA only sees chinkbots at late night/midnightWhen do you think most people play?
>>502663241Sadly KCD2 doesn't come out until February...
>>502663423The point of bushes isn't to stand out less, it's to make identification and weakspot aiming way harder.
Is this common?
>>502664489if you use different bushes you accomplish both things, smoothbrain
>>502662267helps my typing speed honestly.
>>502664553how did you kill him?
>>502665113I don't look at bots names. Probably ZIS-12
>>502664553It's only ever happened to me when I make a business decision (rage quit) after the first death.
>kike tree has better mutt tanks>than the mutts doheh
>>502665385Brits as well lol
mfw I still have this in my computer>2015jesus christAnyway are there any oldfags left
what ammo type should I be using to destroy tracks
>>50266593912.7mm ball
>>502665871I first tried the game out in 2013, played a bit of mudshit CBT in 2014 and seriously started playing it in 2015 for the Hunter F.1 shortly after its announcement but I was never a namenigger, do I count?
>>502665871I already made this post stop being a copycat
cant wait to never play the stupid fucking kv7 again in my life
>>502666237literally nobody ever put a gun to your head and forced you to retard
>>502666034If you weren't in the band of cringelords known as JG508 then you don't count
>>502666237You won't get the IS-7 either. Feel free to cap this and prove me wrong LMAO
>>502661087>>dont want to get up from bed nor sleep with cummy boxersYou get used to it.Besides, dick cheese is awesome.
>>502666497it is absolutely unbelievable the amount of fucking retards that are trying to win that thing. I thought for sure everyone would riot around this event and call gaijin the pieces of shit they are for having such a dumb event yet here we are with thousands of retards still trying to win it
>>502661087Oh man.If only there was someone who does that sort of helping around these parts.Too bad for you, I don't think that's the case.Oh well!
Kill tranniesBehead trannies Hang trannies
>>502666707But how can you hang them if they don't have a head
>>502666594Bro they would literally be better off buying scratch off tickets in the hopes that they win enough money to just outright buy the thing compared to spending hours in a shitty vehicle they hate for fake "Gaijin tickets" that don't guarantee anything.
>pay the poor people tax so you can maybe randomly get $2000 winnings (after losses) so you can pay gaijin $2000 to transfer $2000 fake money to another person to get their pixel tank>play a vehicle for a couple hours and maybe get the $2000 for free randomlyclearly you should do the first thing
>>502666851you should do neither, the IS-7 is a piece of shit that will get uptiered 100% of the time and has a cannon that is absolutely trash
>>502666945the first part is obvious for everything in that BR range but the second part is a flagrant lie
>>502666851You should do neither. That's my point. If it was a tradable IS-7 coupon, completely different story. Grind away. But it isn't, and the thing isn't even crazy OP or anything. You will play nothing but APFSDS slingers.
>>502665871I'm trapped in this hellhole since 2013I think we all died in 2012 and warthunder is some kind of limbo
>>502637990>For the Ki-200.i had to play it to get to jp top tierit was actually pretty fun and was my highest KDR vehicle among japanese jetsyou play it much like japanese props: go to furballs and collect your free killsit rewards good aim more than any other plane that comes to mind, other than the likes of the a6ms and the ki-27
someone please explain what )))))) means, i beg
>>502667663laughing in slav
>>502667663it's how russians write amusement, kind of like xaxaxaxa but more smug
>>502665871I remember the allahu ackbar patch
>>502667812>>502667812>>502667812>>502667812(we're back)
>>502665871this is the literal afk bot that would climb to 15k meters that people seethed endlessly about because they just HAD to chase him up there?or the massive faggot exploiter that would crash land on your airfield and kill anyone coming to land? my first ever war thunder rage was him after he ruined what was going to be my double ace gamei distinctly remember learning to always land on the little side roads of the airfield because of the chance of an IL-28 hiding in the hangars, and i remember how sweet it felt killing his pilot with bombs and him killing nobody on a few games
I'm glad you can now research helis with tanks but boy this is still going to take me quite a while to get to the 12.0 heliDoes anyone happen to know if the same research penalties apply to this when compared to researching tanks?Or can i simply play whatever premium / talisman lineup and get the full RP reward towards the helicopter regardless of rank?
>>502667582I started playing in 2013 too but I broke free in 2017 or so, it's actually my first time visiting this general in many yearsYou can escape too, anon
