We need more Chinese vehicles. It's not like there aren't many since over 200 have been suggested.
The game is unplayable with oldniggers spamming their Panther Fs and Coelians. Impressive how the Coelian can pen the turrent of a Jumbo
squadrons removed when>kill someone>xhis fellow squadtranny hears xim squeal on discord so xhe hides in a corner waiting on me
>>540216515Yeah, that whole BR range is practically unplayable with the amount of oldtrannies taking out their Coelians.
What's the difference between the Me 262 C-1a and C-2b?
>>540217535Better rocket pods with more fuelBoth are shit

and no the blue enemies did not bother to look over this corner at all, they pressed W into A and died
Anyone tried to switch to IL2? Is it better?
I love my wife AMX...

WHY IS THERE AAA IN GRB

racist blowout panels have finally been fixed))))
unironically, Abrams tanks fucking suck. Turret basket, blowout panels not working, massive gaping weakspot. I'm going back to China and Russia.
so how come the jagdpanzer 4 has perfect armor? not one single pixel weakspot, the ultimate niggerbunker in a downtier, quite literally nowhere to pen in the front
man why does it feel like the brakes on the F-15E don't fucking workI can come in super slow and turn engines completely off and this bitch doesn't slow down at all
>>540227745shoulda lost the war
>>540228090bind left brake + right brake in full controls to the same keycongrats now you have brakes
>>540228195doesn't that only work if you switch to full real controls though? I'd have to set that dumb shit up
wait did they move it back down?
>>540228257noalmost all of the binds in there work regardless of the control mode
>>540228292good to know, also it's already set up that way, guess this boat just has shit brakes
>>540228290You're looking at the mudshit BR.
Is the Game running worse anyone after the update?
>>540228338also realized everyone is talking about the new squadron F-16 which is for some reason a BR lower
>>540228406Just watch as it goes to 13.0 where it belongs the millisecond people start getting it for free.

>>540229470Can't we just mod that?
playing top tier jets with a razer naga is so comfy bros... i finally know freedom
>>540229531yeah probablyalso looking at all the flags in the gameonly one that doesnt follow the rule of the national flag being used is the russian empire navy, they are the only ones that us a ensign instead of national flag
"This was fun"t.Shroud
>>540229531No, there are few things you can actually mod in this game. It's basically limited to>new maps (only in singleplayer)>new vehicles (only in singleplayer)>prop arrangements and simple scripts on existing maps (only in custom battles)>vehicle textures>sounds>music>localizationsUI (and any other non-vehicle textures) and models can't be modified.
>>540229651>>vehicle texturesSpecifically, player vehicle textures. You can't change how other players or, say, AI ground units on Air maps look.
Explain this. The OCU has better missiles even

i like it more when the vehicle tooltip show some mock up dated picture instead of this 3d rendering soulless shit we have now

>>540230291the only "advantage" the TT one has is the flare pod that you have to give up missiles for and GBUs but you have no targeting pod to be accurate

>>540230870>shell shattered
>>540230870its literal dogshit despite being the same gun as the EBR, somehow this one gives me nothing but bounces specially KV1s
The Flakpanzer 341 is the most fun i've had in this game in years. Gonna be such a shame (though deserved) when its BR gets raised.

Man, thought I was missing with my HVARs but it's just the overpressure nerf. Near-miss and a direct hit on the front hull of an open top AA and all I did was turn a track red.>>540231138It's insane; I penned the mantlet of a T29 somehow, I believe through the ports for the 50 cals but I can't replicate the shot in protection analysis.

>>540240528RTB and leave, they don't have a single vehicle that can outrun you. Airfields are guarded by Strelas and ItOs now so they can't touch you by rolling a bit or diving from directly above anymore.
>>540240685It's very easy to evade AAA now
>>540240854Why would it be? Rolands were borderline useless, it literally doesn't get any worse, especially when you compare them to IRCCM missiles with actual pull and the second best SACLOS SAM pre-multi-vehicle giganiggas.
>>540240983Strelas aren't IRCCM (unless on contrast mode which seems unlikely) and Itos suffer the same problem as AI Rolands.
>>540241141>unless on contrast mode which seems unlikelyIf the AI is using the auto mode (which it probably is), it'll be firing in contrast mode in most scenarios.>and Itos suffer the same problem as AI Rolands.Just no. The French Rolands previously used for AF defense have awful vertical guidance limits, and just as missiles, they've had absolutely terrible pull ever since all SACLOS SAMs got gimped a few years ago shortly after the Pantsir was added whereas the ItO remained pretty okay.
>>540240983There is a trick how you can fly straight throught the enemy airfield without AAA shooting back but I'm not telling you
>>540241289It's not the virticle guidance that's the problem. The problem is that the AI is unbeleivably bad at aiming the missile. You could easily fly into a cloud of them fired at you and avoid all of them with gentle maneuvering or just ignoring them completely.
