Hello saars can the F117 be used in naval? Im not at pc
I really, really dislike red team.
>>539169512 but blue sometimes betrays you kek
catch my vikhr...
genuinely, how would it affect the gameplay if people had one free backup per vehicle? wouldn't that solve one death leavers?
misha lost
>>539170662wow ok racist next you will want free abrams.
>>539170662That might be a good feature to offer to premium players, you should submit a suggestion
>click on red team>funny red text and sound>feel goodmeanwhile>red team hits me>blue team besides me>doesn't shoot back until 1 second after red team has killed me>boundless rage that cuts my lifespan by a year
>>539170956no it goes in the new premium+ feature.
the Obj 292 has clicked for me>good enough armour for 10.7, let's not pretend 10.7 ERA was somehow good>no need to aim, just center mass anything>reload is manageable, you got okay reverse>you don't really need thermals if you are good
>>539170662If you play for any amount of time it's piss easy to acquire a near infinite amount of backups just from playing regularly and doing war bond tasks. There's also the SL crates that shit out hundreds of them and they're frequent enough to amass tons of them.
>Enemy at out spawn immediately>OH NO YOU WILL FACE A FIVE MIN PENALTY ON YOUR VEHICLES.I would rather not play at all gaijin.
>>539171941you do not get that penalty if someone is in your spawn and you exit the battle
>Air RB>you only get to spawn once in 1 plane>Air AB>fuck it spawn in 22 times if you want nothing is stopping you>Ground RB>spawn as much as you want so long as you have spawn points>Ground AB>fuck you only 3 spawns totalThis needed to be reworked years ago.
>>539171941Don't forget that repair costs are minimal when you spawn, and increase in time. So spawn anyway, maybe you can get a frag.
>>539173051Never understood why arcade lets you respawn as many times you have vehicles + backupNot like it matters much, but on paper it makes bigger countries like murica have expotentially stronger lineups on most br's, most notably top tier
>>539170452Imagine the vikhrs.
>>539175714all the time
zbd03 when?
zbd05 when?
>>539176241>>539176560When the chinks move onto their new sob topic
zbd04 aft-10 when?
I don't care if japan gets the vt-4 its probably a piece of shit anyway if they're giving an Indonesian helicopter this update, i'll gladly take a future su-30 as compensation complete with ground ordnance naturally and then we'll hear the chinese scree for real
>>539176241I saw this one at the tank biathlon and it was considerably smaller than the BMD-4>>539176560>a boat
since other countries can't get chinese vehicles, when is the chink Mirage getting removed?
>>539177767Never since it saved me having to grind the actual french tree to have a dorito
>>539177767Along with 3/4 of their low BR. Right now it's everyone else's tanks but better.
>>539177767why would that get removed?
>>539178696I am french and the chinese use of the Mirage 2000 deply hurts my feelings and the ones of my fellow countrymenconsequences will never be the same
>>539177767Hopefully never so I don't have to endure the humiliation that is playing fr*nce to use op missiles
>>539177767Imagine anton getting fed up with the chinese and removes anything russian from their tree xaxaxaxaxa)))
>start new nation>finally occurs to me I have to grind all crew skills againThat has got to be the worst part of this game
>>539180873until you realize how cheap crew points are
>>539177767When are the chink pattons getting removed? When are the chink russmutt tanks getting removed? When are chinks getting removed from this earth with nuclear hellfire?
>>539178964nobody likes the french
Play the M103
>>539182421Why would I play a field target?
howdy
Anton will just add VT4 premium to Japan tree anyway Cause I think he really doesn't care what chink think. More premium to sell mean more money to be make Also mean more real su25 and t72 they can field in real actual war
>>539182713>mfw browsing /wtg/
>>539179286Excuse my question, I picked up the game the other day. What missiles are you talking about?
>>539184372not him, its the op MICA EM's which are exclusive for french planes
>>539184372Fr*gs have some missiles called MICAs that behave wildly different than all the other active radar homing missiles in the game.You see, all ARHs can be defeated using a tactic called notching (works by flying and chaffing perpendicularly to the missile so its radar head filters your plane out because it appears like a static object) and MICAs are no exception but they have a way smaller window to notch compared to any other ARH and they also constantly reconnect to the target plane so notching is ineffective against them. Apart from this they can pull literally 90 degrees immediately after coming off the rail so in close range slinging you're going to lose 100% of the time.
>>539184851Can other planes get these missiles? >>539185315Seems busted, is there no balance in the game?
>is there no balance in the game
>>539186898yeah play france then it's balanced :)
nobody tell him
how the fuck did i fail scouting?
>>539189262Generally you aim center mass especially at close range. Think of scouting like a cone and the center of peoples vehicles what you need to hit.
finally, time for some 5th gen gameplay...
>>539189943Its 6th gen
ability to tell your loader to man the fucking MG right next to him when
remind me why the tomcat instead of time traveling backwards goes forward to fight amraams
9.0 stock grind is suffering Leo a1a1, TAM and class 3 lineup with autoloader df105 and alloutte helo.
>>539190192Only China has 6th gen fighters
any other meat lovers in here
Do335s should get their air spawn removed for no reason except to piss off the people who play them
>>539201268*monkey paw curls* Do335 performance fixed. Now uncatchable by other WW2 props.

>>539207559no one forced russians to write bbc all over their planes
>>539208172they wrote VVS, it's your ignorant nigger-obsessed mind that insists on reading it the wrong way
>>539208248correct me if I'm wrong but I clearly see russians have written BBC poccnn on this su35
>>539208607It's not English, not even the Latin alphabet, so it's not read that way, it's read "VVS Rossii".

>>539209679Yeah and that jet has latin letters on it instead of those weird noodles russians have
>>539209781Noodles are the cursive and it's not used outside of handwriting, the font used on the plane is normal letters.

>your own two eyes are lying to you, pidorvery orwellian mentality, soviet mentality is alive and well
>>539210429Iirc russian cyrillic was created by greek missionaries
>>539210576dont joke about things like that...
>>539210576reported to the FBI
Your eyes are, in fact, lying to you, pidor, because you're trying to read a foreign language that uses a completely different alphabet with the only alphabet you know (the wrong one for the job).
>>539210576same! :3
>>539211003average wartg player
>the rare WARTG shill appears in threadrare, screencapping for my collection
>>539210429Lots of Eastern European kingdoms used the Greek or Cyrillic alphabet. In my case the oldest forms of the Romanian language were written in both Greek and Cyrillic but we switched to Latin so we wouldn't be associated with slavs.
>>539211056no those would be furries
>>539211174reminds me of this
holy fuck i hate centurions so much
>>539213368I love Centurions. Mark 3 and Mark 10, my beloved.
How do the late Spitfires compare to late Bf109s?

>>539213747From my experience, Spitfires get better all around, while 109's get faster.
>average War Thunder player gigachad edition
>>539215312Just fucking don't say nigger, it's not complicated.
>>539186898>>539184372they coincidentially forgot to mention that the MICA is a short range missile, unusable past 15kmAll you need to do is not get into a 15~20km radius of a Rafale and if you do then multipath
>>539215312baby hop on, new moderator's comment type dropped
It's Monday /wtg/been offline for a week, did I miss anything?
>>539215910Anton bought another yacht.
>>539215312but we are playing in a game with literal nazi

>>539221203there are 35 shermans in the game kek
>>539221708>is the Su-30SM worth it?Yes, having a good radar and decent missiles for once is refreshing and TVC can be genuinely useful in 1v1s (less so in bigger fights where you're likely to be third partied).>do I just wait for the 30SM3 or the 35?Those will sit at a higher BR. Also the 30SM3 doesn't exist, the 30SM2 does but that's just a fatter 35S with no MAW so it will likely be skipped altogether.

I love watching streamers who whine about how bad everyone is at this game and how they just sit and camp or drive like a maniac to their death because they're morons and it's not because they don't have literally 80,000 matches/30,000 hours in the game like they do
>>539224528Why do you love watching these streamers?

IFW?
>>539225546Okay-ness
>>539224528>>539225298i only watch the streamers who are good at the game yet dont comment on how bad their teams are every gameyes its funny to laugh at someone who goes 24:532 in a top tier premium but blaming that every time you lose isnt that interesting
Stona is a fucking futa weeb
>>539225684That's good I guess.I needed something to replace the begleit in my 9.3 lineup because gayjew killed it...
>hope in FW-190 A-8>hunt and kill bomber monkeys with 4 20mm and 2 50calsyup, it's based
>>539225725who is that?literally every WT streamer I've seen is like that except maybe botime gaming (which is gay meme shit) and jeffafa oddballs, bpajon, akula are super whiny (although oddballs hasn't streamed in like 5 years
>>539225546decent speed, decent round, bad armour, is fine
>>539225546an average 9.3 tank
>>539225546is the 105 A1 Leo still 8.7?IIRC this thing gets LRF and shitty thermals I think it used to be 9.0 which seemed fine...although i guess most stuff like that moved up to 9.3
>>539226240>is the 105 A1 Leo still 8.7?no
>>539210498He is still a fucking nigger how he doesnt make anyone else a officer to let people in and all his tranny officer friends have not played for forever by now
>>539225985jeffafa has stopped streaming unfortunately piiot is a good ARB streamer and there are a couple of 20ish viewer streamers that are fun to hang around in their chatshonestly it feels like war thunder cc's are just dying out or becoming incredibly boring, even on youtube it feels like just the same content from the past couple years over and over again
>>539226240nah the Leopard 1 A1A1 from TT is 9.0 now.

>>539230561the 35mm SPAA are wild manan XM246 on my team fucking wiped out a T-80 frontally
patch this week or are we getting another dev(oid of content) server
>>539225546Ignoring the limited armor, a definition of "above average".
>>539231024what tank would be Goldship's favorite?
>>539230861>sovlbut as always dont give your opinion on the vehicle till its spaded
>>539231273is it basically just the ultimate form of the BF109 series?and should I use the 20mm when I unlock it or keep the 30mm?gunpods worth it?
>>539230685why did burgers think it was necessary to give an SPAA ten degrees of gun depression, a hull down SPAA melting lighttanks is obnoxious? I can explode gepards by shooting the massive dome but XM246s are so much tankier to me
>>539231407swap for the 20mm as soon as you get it>gunpods worth it?thats been the question since the k4 came outi take them because its fun
>>539230861used to be the best now its kinda shityou will have dog shit teams that are mostly JU288s so it will be you, some guy in a Ta152 who get gang raped by F2G-1s, P51Hs, Yaks, etclast good 109 is the G6
>>539231465because Burgers like to be able to shoot enemies if they're below themkind of like how the soviets in Afghanistan had to start bringing SPAA alongside their tanks because the tanks couldn't elevate high enough to shoot jihadi's in the hill
>>539231913that fucking shilka they added has no business being 7.3it yeets everything out of the sky with a fartthe M163 is like 10000x worse
>>539232170yeah the m163 cant even track targets unless you go into gunner sight first lmao, and it has 1 20mm gatling gun
>>539232276>kugelshits competing with Shilkas for air killsWhen I swapped from slavs to krauts for grind, I learnt the pain
>>539232543yeah lmaokugelblitz is at 7.0 purely because it cant really be strafed
>>539204930The camo for the Spitfire is also from before the Battle of Britain. It's a paint job from Bader's plane early in the war over France and Op Dynamo/Evacuation of Dunkirk.I'll bet they initially wanted to make a Bader skin for the premium Spitfire Mk.IIa, but Bader didn't fly Mk.IIs until 1941, so they made Mk.Ia P9443 from 1940 instead of his Mk.IIa P7966.During the Battle of Britain he was actually flying Hurricanes, not Spitfires.
I think the kugel is pretty OK for SPAAits weird how gaijin started nerfing stuff like kugel, AMX-DCA, Coelian because they 'didn't want SPAA to become potent tank destoyers' yet have now gone full send on polluting the tree with this trash like its their only focus
Am I just using it wrong? I feel like my rolands never actually hit anything. Enemies just maneuver and deliver payload into the vicinity and I die. Would the Osa be better?
>>539232739I feel like a single HVAR on my slow Pz.IV chasis still nukes me>>539232995isn't gaijin buffing the coelian for some reason on dev server by giving it rounds like more pen
>>539221708R-77 are shit but honestly after the 27SM engine buffs you should at least be able to do okay30SM has the stock 27 engines, but it has R-77-1, TVC and a good radar so that makes up for itR-77-1s are actually usable unlike R-77salternatively just use the base Su-27 or 33 if you can't get used to the 27SM, it is still amazing at 12.0
>>539233598Coelian's buff will completely render the Kugelblitz's existence moot. The funniest part would be if Gaijin forgets to adjust its BR.
>>539235347>will render the kugelblitz existence mootbesides the fact that the coelian isn't obtainable anymore?
How do the french leos compare to the rest?Also what makes the MSC so good according to many people I've heard?
>>539235831>frenchDutch.
They're adding loads of new killmark decals in the update by the looks
>>539235831>How do the french leos compare to the rest?Exact copy pastes of the German ones. Only advantage is you don't have to play with German teams.>what makes the MSC so good Good mobility, fast reload, and armor that can sometimes eat shots it probably shouldn't be able to. Helps that it doesn't have a turret basket as well.
>>539235801Yes, but I have it so it's not my problem :^)
>>539235831you get 3 tone CARC as standard, otherwise they're the same as the german/finnish ones
>>539237134then why is the french 2A5 12.0 while the german is 9.3?(>>539225546)
>>539237227Dutch ones also have a MAG58 instead of MG3 (like the Swedish ones) don't they?
so russia just gets access to planes you can't aim IR missiles at?????????????????

just bought the Turm III after being a soviet/russian main forevergenuinely how do people do bad in Leopards? abusing hulldown and mobility is so strong
>>539237485also remember the smoke grenade arrangements being different but they're all the same?maybe they changed it, or maybe i just got irl and wt mixed up
>>539237436Anon... look again, closer...
why are they adding a fourth Kongo
>>539238948they like the country
>>539238050Dutch A4, A5 and A6 have different smoke dischargers to the German ones - 12 on the Dutch one (6 twin-barrelled launchers on each side) and 16 on the German ones (8 separate launchers in two rows on each side)Finnish A6 is virtually the same as a Dutch A6 but with a few mods, while the Finnish A4 is German style with a few mods.Hungarian A4 has a MAG58 like the Dutch one but German smoke dischargers.
>>539238948All the previous ones were post-refit, this one's pre-refit.
>>539237495Yes pidor
>>539237967the Turm III is way better than the Leopard though?
>>539237495These have been shot down by manpads many times already which makes me wonder about the effectively of the ir dazzler

>>539241018You need not to forget War Thunder is just a video game. And every piece of hardware works at 100% efficiency, as intended, as if it as right outta factory.
Japgluttons... our time is NOW.
Camos for the update have been added to files. This usually gets done right before release without going on the dev server.So I guess they'll update on Wednesday, after announcing scheduled maintenance tomorrow
>>539241126One neat feature we used to have was failures in different components like for example carburetor floats if you tried to fly upside down for too long and now all we have is gay fuel starvation >>539241180Those IR dazzlers clearly didn't work when they came out of the factory
>>539239947i was thinking more of this arrangement, maybe not specifically this one but something similar>>539239951ah, i guess that makes it mildly more interesting than the two event ones
>>539240557Eh...it's better, not WAY betterI have a better K/D in the Leo 1 and I play it with the Turm III. Leo is faster than Turm III, lower and easier to be sneaky with.
TRD when?

>got back into shit thunder after like 1 year of uninstall >actually started enjoying it, really getting into Rank VI France, even Rank VI Russia...usually I kinda hate playing Russia but was having a lot of fun with them, especially obj. 685 >wanted a little taste of Britain>last time I played Britain was probably 4 years ago, dusted off Caernarvon, FV4202>whoa, these are way shittier than I remember >grinded out Centurion, this ought to be a lil less painful >easily 5x worse pain than Caernarvon >Suffer through 150 matches grinding out Ratel, Eland, G6, Scimitar, Tortoise, ystvark, Bosvark, skink>actual hell >finally grind out Fox, Vickers mk1, Cent mk10>the most mid af vehicles ever played >I fucking hate Britain with a passion >boot up WT >all I do is pick Britain now >wtf is wrong with me
>>539241307literally me
>>539244929You only hate britian until you start to get good at the game and then they're reliably decent to play.
>Pederast's Spitfire
>>539245420And then you hate it again when you get shafted by the russnigger animals garbage code and retarded subhuman monkey bias that decides your completely flat shot fails to penetrate half the stated amount of armor,
>>539227973that sucks but also good for himhe was probably the best WT streamer imoisnt he an engineer for NASA or something?
>>539245930Should be Canadian, not British
>>539246026isn't HESH supposed to overpressure shit? I've never really used it but there was a BMP2 behind a rock I killed his transmission, i could only see the front part of him, so I loaded HESH and shot it twice, both rounds exploded on him but did nothingI thought that is supposed to be a guaranteed kill?
>>539244929I've been playing bongaloid stuff of late, I played russia for that golden heatfs decorator and was disgusted at how easy it was.
thoughts on sim? is it good or bad? (for grinding sl and rp)>>539244929the only thing good about britain is the south african line. fuck everything else
>>539247571Hesh is modeled to be neither high explosive or squash head, some russian documents from the pentagon on some random blog made 5 milliseconds ago say so))))))))))
>>539247862>thoughts on sim?Ground? Unplayable in the most literal sense possible, as in you can't play what you want most of the time. Air? Actually fantastic, though mostly because it's EC; if I had the option, I'd play RBEC over it.
the issue with HESH is that hull break is no more
If I buy everything I've researched right now (100 vehicles), it'll cost me 39.5 million lions. If I wait for the sale and skip the squadroon vehicles it'll only cost 20 millionI'm going to have so many new lineups when the november sale hits and with the battlepass done it's a great time to take a break
>update not tomorrowwhy?
Gaza map when?
>>539249556that would mean working on a mondaythis concept is alien to the slav
>>539249556>being impatient>not simply stop thinking about it until you are one day pleasantly surprised that the update has dropped.
are they ever bringing back the spicy pasta livery
>>539250543zamn Lucchini looks like that?
>>539250463liesI literally had to stay in the office on overtime today becasue of mr goldberg

>>539251083 yes
>>539251312but did you do any work
>>539247924I saw a video on "buffed hesh" modding WT files and it was still mediocre with the way it's coded. Doesn't this thing nuke anything short of spall liners in real life?
la-11 or la-9?
>>539250390just carpet bomb middle eastern, the map
>>539253204theres a bunch pics of 76mm HESH effect in herehttps://apps.dtic.mil/sti/pdfs/AD0348021.pdfi remember someone posting a bunch of pics from a (larger caliber) HESH test, but that was a russian test so the conclusion boiled down to 'not good at things russian HE shells are good at'
What BR/rank brings the most suffering for the respective faction? I'm thinking rank 1 french or rank 2-3 brits. Maybe israel at top tier?
>>539253204No, it only works on solid metal armorAny amount of spaced armor or composite will stop it working.But the fact it nukes cast steel armor in particular is why gaijin nerfed the shit out of it, because all their tanks had huge cast turrets until T-62M-1
>>539253541Surely the 11 is better because it's 2 higher?
>>539254021so you're saying stuff like the IS-7 and 279 would get gibbed by it if it worked correctly?
>>539254745Yes, thats exactly what the large caliber HESH throwers the Brits designed immediately post war were intended to defeat.
>>539254015none of the 1.0s, not even the french ones once you get good and realize the H-39 is the only one you need.4.7 and upwards is where you start to see the imbalance between nations and everyone starts suffering in equal amount, I'd say.
i like this little rat
>>539255061It doesn't rotate its turret fast enough to be a rat.
>>539241018Are you retarded?
>>539255420rats just fine
another rat i like
>>539258091it's just a spaa with bad pen it can't kill anything above chaffees
>>539258406WRONG
>>539258627how do you feel about killing a locust?
I am 100% convinced this game is rigged in various ways. 1. Damage of shells goes up and down, its not 'getting gaijined' its the cyclical damage that makes you ammo nukes one match, then make ammo yellow the next 2. accuracy/received acc buffs/debuffs 3. contrast of your vehicle buffed/debuffed (Ever wonder how sometimes for some reason there are 10 other players on the field but every CAS plane is attracted to you? Its because in that match your contrast has been buffed making you stand out as a clear little black dot to planes (pretty sure Gaijin even talked about doing this like 10 years ago) 4. using actual bots in game, not noobs, actual AI bots that run on script to 'go to position X,Y, engage enemy if in certain range or ignore, etc.' Gaijin uses peoples vehicles when they are not playing to do this, it just doesn't record in game. Ever wonder why there are all those people that randomly self destruct for no reason in a match? Its because they just logged on.
>>539253978what vehicle did they shoot at?
100% FOR CERTAIN rigging CC/streamers games to get shitty opponents, constant downtiers and good map rotation with high percent of 3 cap instead of domination or single cap
>>539259290daimler armored car and a comet
>>539253978thats just super thin armor and not really what HESH is designed for its made so the shockwave travels through the thick metal and breaks off a scab the size of a dinner plate on the inside which bounces around the crew compartment at mach 2
>>539258783good
>>539259392>literal tin cans
>>539259291Considering Gaijin recently """fixed""" a bug that allowed premium vehicles to get ~20% more points in a match (yes really), I wouldn't be surprised that Gaijin has more secret features hidden in the game.
vulching should be bannable
>>539259792theres also a couple pics on the effects against (somewhat) more substantial armornot soviet heavy tank thick armor, but its also just a 76mm shell so yeah
>>539259291>>539260194considering jewdintsev said this on the matter a couple years ago, 1000% there's hidden shit that skews matches in favor of certain people
hello? where my post?
>>539259102>I am 100% convinced this game is rigged in various waysI'm 100% sure if you're playing above 8.0 at least 75% of faggots in the games are using an ESP hack at the very least. I can say this with almost full certainty because almost exactly a month ago something snapped and suddenly entire teams could see and track each other through buildings and terrain.
>>539231239KV-2 or any le epic derp gun xDD
what does this mean?
>>539261405this, I know 3 different Chinese account resellers who use ESP hacks to quickly level accounts.
>>539262721It means it goes where the laser goes.If the laser stops, it will go where it was flying to.
>>539263052Interesting, so why does it miss when the laser is off but the target never moved?
>>539263210It will hit the target.
>>539263210because you turned off the laser before the final approach so the missile keeps flying forward
>>539259102meds
>>539263210because IOG isnt perfectimagine it like>point your finger at a point on a wall then walk towards the wall with your eyes openit goes exactly towards that point because you use your eyes to adjust it (laser)>point your finger at a point on a wall then walk towards the wall with your eyes closedyour finger will land roughly where you wanted it but because you couldn't see your finger in relation to the wall you were never able to adjust the small differences while walking towards it (IOG)and small differences over a long distance = a big difference

>>539267292What about naval?
>>539268962Naval doesn't interest me until they add submarines.
why does the q-5l have two targeting pods?
>>539267292Air is fine if you're ww2 and get a historical match with smaller team sizes, but even then you notice how the game has barely improved since last decade.

>>539278219I just don't want to read all of their bullshit and I don't want to be tempted to even type a response
If you're not calling chinks out on their bullshit you're just as much part of the problem.
When will we get more trainerslop?I want Hawk, Yak-130, M-346 Master and so onHell they could add one of the trainers as squadron vehicle for shitaly
>>539279093if you know they're there, you literally don't need to do shit to dodge them except get it into a notch even briefly, don't even need CMs
>>539279093AIM-54A and even 54C are not the issue, fakour are the issue since they're basically giganigger fox 3s (not even confirmed they work like this btw just iran propaganda since the things look identical to regular phoenix)
>>539280498They will dripfeed them over 3 years because while they do make for good premiums gaijin is just too lazy to model new planes Each new plane comes with a groan from the ceo as each new paypiggy tank takes half the time to make
>>539280824>>539281509They don't always trigger RWR which is the issue. There is no way of knowing one is coming your way
Other than the leopard and ariete, whats the best line to go down?

>filthy westerners awake>make their lives miserable, engage the DDOS>glorious peoples of china are awake>DDOS off
>>539291456There's already and LAV in the game without the rocket pod, it's called the stock variant.
>>539292312nothing? get fucked zhang
>>539292626Then you don't get an aesthetically different LAV-AD.
just noticed they moved the SU-34 up to 13.7 where the 27SM sits, why? it's nowhere near as good as the 27SM

>>539323228completely worthless for darts, compositethere was a really good interview with one of the engineers who developed the first bunker buster he said they were able to increase the penetration of the bomb by 4x just by working the steel of the casing in a more refined manner, same steel as the stock bomb but how it was manufactured (IE some parts of the steel will be harder, some softer) without even touching the shape of the bomb theres all sorts of details that are unknown in how modern darts and composite armor, these simulation channels just use programs that can model a set metric for DU, or tungsten, or steel, ceramic, etc, they lack all the details that would make the simulations relevant
>>539328090I very much hope they do not bring them backI still have like 40,000 RP left to grind on Maus, I just like seeing it in my tree knowing I can get it and others cant

Nice.

Feels good man.
Please sir, can I have different game modes?

Removal of China without compensation when?
>>539338632If you have room in the lineup, why not?
I don't respawn when killed by 2S38, because it's a blatantly pay2win vehicle.I don't respawn when killed by SPAA, because SPAA are not supposed to be tank destroyers.I don't respawn when killed by self-propelled howitzer, because artillery pieces are not supposed to be tank destroyers.I don't respawn when killed by air without getting at least one kill myself, because tank game.
>>539338076No you will enjoy circle and nothing else.
>>539338632That's the lineup I use for that BR, but with the premium DS instead of the Mk.3The Challenger's a good option to have in your lineup for maps where being hull-down and hill-peeking is advantageous. The T-90's shit gun depression and reverse speed is a massive hindrance for those
>>539339998>I don't respawn when killed by 2S38, because it's a blatantly pay2win vehicle.>I don't respawn when killed by air without getting at least one kill myself, because tank game.ok, reasonable>I don't respawn when killed by SPAA, because SPAA are not supposed to be tank destroyers.>I don't respawn when killed by self-propelled howitzer, because artillery pieces are not supposed to be tank destroyers.!!!

>>539350030It does but it's hilariously garbage since the Rolands have been broken for years and the enemy needs to practically stall out to become susceptible to them. Next update is swapping the Rolands for Strelas so we'll see how much more effective those are going to be.

>>539361876This is something I was wondering about too. Why the fuck are US props filled to the brim with bomb loads seen in bombers? Gluttony?
>>539362805because they could carry those loadouts IRL?
>>539362675That's definitely not a turnfighter, it's a bomber with guns on it that can't even fight twin-engine fighters worth a shit. It's an opportunistic killer.>>5393627741000lb* which is very roughly equivalent to 500kg
>>539363130it's a twin engine "bomber" with the most egregious flight model at the br
How is the Vickers Mk.1 in game? I was trying it out in test drive and it seems pretty decent. I don't have a full 8.0 lineup yet so don't want to use in in game quite yet
>>539362774lolread the bomb again>>539362675fair enough
>>539362805mutts had the industrial capacity and resources to build strong airframes with powerful engines, meaning most fighters could double as strike aircraftmost other countries had to compromise by having attack aircraft (sacrificing performance for payload) and fighters (sacrificing payload for performance)
How can Germany be based if they used the metric system?
>>539362923seems impractical>>539364509yeah so the answer is just because they could
>>539364665look up list of ww2 aces
>>539365051ban this racist
>>539364890more or lessits also pretty efficient cause fighters require a lot less infrastructure to operate which is useful if you're island hoppingand your carriers dont have to carry parts and whatnot for three separate airframes
>>539365051If the superbowl was 1 team vs every other team in the world, that team would get a lot of victories.
>>539365051Number one bread factory killer so what?
>>539363327It's basically a slow light tank as you have no armor and the apds is the shit 105mm one that lacks the good angle pen plus no heatfs. I wouldn't run it unless you have the 8.3 lineup cause there really isn't an 8.0 one. It's an okay vehicle, not great but not terrible either.
>>539365051>Hartmann (hard man)>Dick BongDick Bong wins that one. Next.
Allies wo-
>>539367092typical, you post the one where there are barely any allies, post the friendly fire incidents if you want a fair comparison
>>539366498>40 aces>against Japan>Japan has higher ranking aces>>539367228They're lower down the list kek, Dick Bong is highest ally ace and he's only 40
>>539366302And if you are running the 8.3 lineup I would go for the 8.3 vickers mk3 putting the Mk1 in a really hard point.
>>539367670>muh k/d>muh winrate>we lost Stalingrad holy shit>we lost Kurks wt>why are they taking Normandy?>stop this pls
>>539362923>because they could carry those loadouts IRL?Then why don't all the Ju 88s get the largest niggerbombs they happily shared with the 188 because their airframes were lighter? or the 190 F get the SC-1800, and where's the other ground attack variant(s) that were also retrofittable to such high bombloads? why'd it take around ten years for the Stuka to get it when the requests were ancient enough to have outlived the old forums? why doesn't the Me 410 get any of its meaningful large external ordnance in bombs and torpedoes or even the 1000kg variant that could fit in its bomb bay? why don't they get CCRP Stuvi sights which were in use from the start of B model Stuka production? where are the thickwalled semi-AP fragmentation SD series bombs that either trade some HE capacity or take on more weight to have a thicker shell over the same weight of SC, except on the Israeli Sakeen where the SD70 wasn't even sim'd right I don't think and still might not be now?

>>539372479bigger numbers = betternever mind who won
>>539372479Doesn't matter when the German's main objective was total germ death so that the USSR could grab half of Europe.
>>539366302>>539367753Ahh ok thanks. British lineups are such a mess from the 6.0-8.3 range. 7.7 seems decent but the rest is just a cluster of what are basically support vehicles for the most part or SPAA. specially if it's just TT
>>539373389They've been picked apart every time they do slightly well leading to them being dispersed probably why they are constantly stuck at 50% WR they don't have the strong lineups to influence a match.
>>539328090I hope so, some asshole from Vladivostok stole my old account which had all the German Paper tanks. He also stole:- All my Italians planes in the German air line before the introduction of the Italy tree- HMS Mohawke - MBK-161 early-T14-Panzer II C DAK- KW I C 756 (r)- Pz.Kpfw. Churchill- T-34 747 (r)- T-35- BT-7 A (F32)- T-34 100- Object 279- A13 Mk II 1939- Alecto I- Ro-Go- M13/40 (II)Anyways, be sure to get two factor verification and make sure your email isn't dead. Don't get fucked like me. Upside was I my ground line up on my old account had fuck all in the way of aviation to support in realistic battles. I was flying props in mid cold war battles. Now it's the other way around. If I go back into ground I'm never not going to have the best planes for its tier. I just miss my 279 and my Paper tanks, man.
>>539370212All I want is one (1) German single engine fighter that can carry a torpedo in naval. The Fw 190 A-5/U14 can pack one, but I have to shell out money for it. The A5/U2 should be more than capable of that as well. Trying to torpedo run in an 88 or 111 is near on suicide. Still I've gotten pretty good with the Fritz X, so at least there's that.

>>539375369>>539376231>(1) German single engine fighter... carry a torpedoyour daily reminder the Me-410, although not a single engine, is a substantially lighter twin engine with dive brakes for quickly- reaching ideal torpedo drop speeds and could carry an LT/BV 950 glide torpedo package which is just a licensed Jap Type 91 model 2 torpedo with wings in addition to the parent non-glide LT 850 version- as well as two of the Bombentorpedo 400 which was a long semi-aerodynamic dumb bomb designed specifically to be dropped directly laterally into the side or just into the waterline of a ship, and could probably carry any airdropped torpedo of similar weight to the 950/850 in its torpedo shackle that were also in Luftwaffe inventory.Also, while I'm checking these torpedo designations, why the fuck do all German torpedo bombers except the premium get the F5w, which is just the designation for an Italian version of the Whitehead torpedo as pressed into ersatz Luftwaffe service? Why can't they carry standard F5b class German torpedoes? why is Gaijin like this?

>stupid nigger being mauled to death by teammate>refuses to even dare fucking look at said teammate>nope, will remain staring at me until the bitter fucking endwhat causes this?
>>539415605>Oplot-TIs the Oplot actually good? Seems like it's just a t-80 with better mobility but less firepower
>>539417350It's a T-80 with slightly weaker ammo and marginally weaker engine in exchange for a better reverse gear
>>539416834crab eating corn in a frying pan video
>>539417350Think a T80 with 35km/h reverse gear, crisp thermals and better protection all around
8 months later,700 hours grinding and entire nights learning the maps,track killing with the machine gun,understanding ammo placements and getting constantly uptiered,i finally dropped my first nuke,i'm never playing Ground RB again,i will finally devote my time to what i love,shooting Phoenix missiles with my F14A and pretending that i'm Tom Cruise.

>>539421295what can i say? it is the euphoria of achieving something hard for the first time,surely you've felt it at least once.

>>539421797gaijin automatically rigging all matches with a complex algorithm is a racist conspiracy theory, please ignore Wargaming being struck with the same accusations followed by experimental substantiation of doing exactly that and also ignore Anton admitting they rigged the damage models against tagged 'cheaters'

both of these planes got copysharted in one update after the other, but I've never seen anyone fly themis the ret 8 any good for cas at least?
>>539424935RET 8 is getting MAWS pods in the next update without a BR increaseOtherwise it really only offers the addition of GPS bombs like SDB-I.But SDB is gimped to fuck by Gaijin reducing all GPS accuracy to GLONASS levels of accuracy, which favours all their glide bombs with larger 500kg (1000lb)+ warheads while harming most common NATO glide bombs that have smaller warheads - usually 250kg (500lb) or less
dev server is back open
im sure its loaded with all sorts of new and interesting things
>>539425451>But SDB is gimped to fuck by Gaijin reducing all GPS accuracy to GLONASS levels of accuracywhy would gaijin do this?
