>>551776668why do i have to turn off thermals to see through smoke?
entire brit tree should be removed from the gamewhats even the point of it existing
>>551777085Because it has vehicles other nations don't.
>>551777085>whats even the point of it existingallows britbongs to be handheld by giving them 4 chally 2s at 11.7
>>551777085This but Swedish
What's the nation that isn't handheld? I don't want to be called a shitter.
>>551776782smoke grenades from tanks are specifically made to limit the effectiveness of FLIR, while ESS can be seen through thermals just fine
>>551777530Germany.
>>551777530By who? Where? Play what you want you dumb shit.
>>551777530Italy, France, Japs, Jews
>>551777756basically this, France can be unforgiving if you don't know what you are doing
>>551777621shit, i mean dust and all the random shit which gaijin has added over the years
what makes the T-80U-E1 12.0 unlike the 11.7 T-80U in the tech tree?
Apparently the Kisarazu was released as a modelThat would probably have been a better use of money
t-thanks anton...
>>551778582luckyyyy!
Do cavalry units count as vehicles?
>>551777530>>551778582Pye :D
>>551778720Yes, horses are the cars of the pre-modern world but elephants[/spoiler ]are the main battle tanks of the pre-modern world.
chally 2s are the most braindead handheld tanks in the game
Reminder that every match is you vs 16 red and 15 blue enemies
>>551780303I disagree.
>>551780303Wrong, some reds are friends.
>>551780303This is false, not every game has 32 players.

crew skills are such horseshit>here's a ~30% performance debuff to your tanks for 1000 hours of gameplay :)
>>551781867this incentivizes the player to work their way up through the tree rather than buy a top tier premium with a level 1 crewthey still do it though
shit gamealsofastest way to do this crap?
>>551781578
>>551776262+1.0 BR tax btw
>>551782539well, it doesn't say 'player' targetsso, try taking a bomber for one match and bomb cars (ground vehicles) in ARB and see what happens. I'm not sure if they count.orUse a tier III aircraft for CAS in GRBfuck water targets.are you fucking retarded?
>>551782539>get a SB2C>done in one matchWow so hard.

Should i?
>>551786301just get the german onethe others are pointlessif you want to play a german tank, play it in the german treeyou can grind the french tree with actual french tanks
>>551786301YESthey all goodits masterwork all
>>551785912i already spade it
>>551785912total dogshit tank. bad round, no stabilizer, takes to weeks to get the crosshair on target
What the fuck happened to HEAT? Shit feels like it does no post-pen damage since the update.
where are the people who said the game was dying?
>>551786735goodheat players are the most cancerous
>>551787001>t. APHE user
>>551786301choose wisely
>>551786301>buying the same tank 3 times
>>551786843Eat shit. Millions of flies cannot be wrong.
>>551786735ZT3A2 works fine.
>>551786301>>551787367>same tank but with 3 different skinsDefinition of slop
>>551787367just goes to show how player skill is the the number one factor in determining a vehicle's stats yet gaijin will set BRs for tanks simply based on the stats rather than the actual performancethe only the reason the dutch leo is not 11.0 is because it is literally identical to the german one and therefore would be too obviously retarded to change the BR
>>551786735smaller heat rounds have been completely fucked since the """"buff""""
>>551788032Clovis is probably my favorite example, frog one has a 20% higher winrate than the german one
so is this something that everyone does
>>551788760I've not done in ever. Meaning, not everyone.
>>551788760I have been honestly guilty of using that a few times.
>>551788760If everyone did it it wouldn't be pay to win
So when MiG-25 finally drops, and the spam begins, what will you fly to bully them?Probably something 11-11.7 right, since 10.7 will be saturated with them guaranteeing downtiers.
>>551788760one of the least-used features, not worth it
>Rare instance of a GRB match coming down to the wire instead of being decided in the first minute>Nuke on my team ruins itNo fun allowed, ever.
>>551789093j7d, j8b, f5s will be untouchable
its just laughable how pathetic the abrams armors are in this game when irl its known as THE armored tank, jokes n laughs for this trash company
>>551787367back couple months ago I would say get the german onecause it only has one mbt there otherwise with it you can have 2 but now with terminator around I would avoid playing 10.7 all together and go play 11.0+ instead
>>551789768How are the most armored tanks doing in the Ukraine? They won the war right?
>>551789768>irl its known as THE armored tankis it though?
>>551789768You were saying the same shit about the Tiger ten years ago.
>>551789768challenger is the one known for it's armor tho
>>551789870>>551789883armor is irrelevant when you're having shit dropped from drones x1000 because ukrops and ziggers are too 3rd world to get air superiority, but for tank on tank sep v2 and such have DU armor which is insanely thick, whats supposed to have better armor, tranny90 that weighs like 30 tons less? or leo 2 which hasn't been in a single war, abrams is the scariest tank on earth irl, its a joke ingame because they gave it 30mm frontal armor, you can't dispute this

>>551789768Real world is not a video game.
>>551789768You're mistaking the real world for this pidor fantasy game.
>>55178980211.0-11.7 tanks are devouring lobbies at the moment
>Helis have an EC PvE mode>Planes don't because ???
>>551791271Because Heli PvP sucked turbo dick
>>551791887You say that like AAB and ARB aren't also busted up shitboxes where 80% of the planes in-game aren't useless
HEAT? more like LUKEWARM PISS
>>551789768It's probably top3 worst armored tank in Real life, right behind challenger 2 and ariete
>>551792021>aren't useless*are useless
>>551791887It was unironically fun on the City map even in shitty helis if you stuck to the actual city, the cover of skyscrapers (which you had to be a bit skilled to take advantage of mind you) negated the advantage of AAMs and Vikhrs entirely.
>>551792140you're a complete fucking drooling retard with 0 common sense

>>551789768So this is what passes as burger education.

Bros help, gimmie a 10 second guide on how to play all these high tier SPAA you now get for freelock plane, point vaguely in location, press missile and keep your mouse on the lock location, that's it?
>>551792310>it's american so it should be very well armored saar!>can be punched through with 3bm42 in turret front>30mm turret ring>20mm hull roof, thinner than most ww2 tanks
>>551790136Not anymore lmao.
>>551792747its common knowledge, heavy as fuck = most of that weight is in armor, uses superior materials like DU vs copper mined in yakutsk, etc etc, just because its classified gaijin decided to invent funny numbers from nowhere just so russians can have a 12.0 tank instead of their stuff going only to 10.0 where it belongs, T-series tanks are known for shit armor, hence the need for gimmicks
What command do I have to unbind to make the CCRP thing never pop up again? It's the most worthless in the way piece of shit of all time.
>jeetptjesus fucking christ
How has Warthunder changed your life? Whenever I need to psyche myself up about something I now shout "Boyo!"
>>551793548yeah schizo ramblings of russians on /wtg/ is a better source
>>551792310it's not unpatriotic to admit that abrams is liquid, abysmal shit and needs to be replaced
>American mains: haha retarded wehraboos, you're supposed not to rely on your armor>several ranks later>NOOO THE ABRAMS IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE MOST ARMORED TANK IN HISTORY NOOOO

tell me about ma gach
i like how american vehicles in warthunder are basically 20-40 years behind where they are IRL, facing russian and chinese stuff from 2020, and people still whine that america is too strong
>>551792075My memory of playing the M51 was that the HEAT shell would nuke everything when I was lobbing it from range, but did fuck all post-pen damage when firing it at close rangeI wouldn't think the shell's velocity had any bearing on the HEAT jet formation, but it seems to
>>551793682Ban evading now?

>>551793896he has many brothersand one american cousin
>>551793682>>551793658the latest abrams variants are by any metrics the best tanks in human history, just because gaijin hallucinated imaginary stats and as that other anon said uses 1980s abrams specs for the sev2 a3 doesn't mean it isn't so
>>551793896Magach 5 is great (M111 on 8.0 + not completely useless ERA for that BR), Hydra is fun, Gal Batash and Sabra GOAT's. Wanna try 7C one day, but fuck 105 stock grind.
>>551792140>tfw ariete should have 650-600mm against KE because it uses a composite armour similiar to the chobham but italian made (and not disclosed)

>>551794937Realizing you were better off just buying the premium chopper
>>551795028That's all vehicles in all trees.
>>551793601It made me paranoid and schizophrenic. My situational awareness has increased, I can keep track of multiple people outside of my field of vision, I check my six sporadically, I avoid looking at people to avoid pinging their RWR, I pre-flare IRL.
>>551795124Yes but it's especially bad for helis with how utterly dogshit their grinding is.It might actually be less painful come infantry
>>551793397>its common knowledge, heavy as fuck = most of that weight is in armorI assume average american can tank .338
>>551795028There's no premium Apache in the Jap tree (yet).Though I imagine one might be coming now that the Kisarzu is gone>>551795124Also true
>>551795139
imo this is the worst tier to grind, you start being uptiered into the OP 10.0+ premium seas territory, and everything takes long to grindo ofcso cancer
>>551793601i have become even more recist. before i only hated arabs and gypsis, but since my whorld has been opened to slav(e)s and chinks, everything has changed
>>5517956829.0 lineup with the TAM and Leo A1A1 is goodthen it's shit until 10.7
>>551795413Oh right they did just remove the only premium jap chopper and replaced it with... Nothing.GE is strange.
Why does china only get 2 decals? they couldnt make it anymore obvious that they hate china
>>551796151The rest of the decals are hidden from the noobs like you.

>>551796338Noob is a state of mind, not age.
>>551777281literally nobody gives a fuck about whats available at the end of a rainbow if it comes at the expense of having to grind dogshit tanks that actively get worse and worse with worse speed, 11 sec reload timers, worse ammo, worse rotation, worse everything for mutliple BRs in a rowthe only good vehicle in the entire tree is a fucking 3.3 br Sarcophagus(get it, its your grave) and a fox that shoots 1 geppard bullet a second with zero stabilizer while that same gepperd one shots every single fucking battle tank in your lineup in 0.1 seconds
>>551796338Have a look for yourselfhttps://forum.warthunder.com/t/war-thunder-decals-catalog/701
>>551796870i dont care what the website says if theres only 2 i can pick from in game
>>551797098I can pick more than 2 cause I'm not a noob.
>>551797098most, if not all, of them were Battle Passwalled or part of events/decals-of-the-monthif you didnt grind/buy them, the game pretends they dont exist
>>551777530China demands skill achieved through cultivation.
pfahahahaha
>>551776132holy shit BMPT destroys everything at top tier toobuy it/research it before gaijin ups the br like they did with AGS (10.3->12.0)
>>551796252>noobsyou just had to grind the battle ass and pay for it
when will the anime packs go on sale?
>>551798750Not all of them were paywalled.
>>551799073you just had to grind the battle ass
>>551798965They will never go on sale, so you might as well just buy them now. They might remove them from the store if you don't buy them now.
The people have spoken and they demand a premium Ajax
>>551780303God damn, this tilts me so much when spawning on the north side.There is literally no reason for more than 2-3 people to go to C as the entirety of the map can be controlled from B.

T..thanks Anton
>>551800115ok?
>>551799945>They will never go on saleSource: your ass.Also there's literally no reason not to wait. They get removed before they get a chance to go on sale? You'll have your last chance. They remain for long and do go on sale eventually? You'll get them for twice as cheap as you would have if you were an impatient retard.

>>551799945>>551800275it makes me sick when i realize how much u can get for the price of these virtual units in WT, like even rn on "sale", christian 2 for example, 35 euros for one unit in a game, steam sale rn has tons of great games, shit, master chief collection thats SIX FUCKING GREAT GAMES for 10 euros (i already own it ofc but yeah just a comparison), 35 euros for one unit and that being the default price is LOONEY, im a big weeb so i might drop 70 for the anime ones but yeah not rn, broke cause of holiday season shi
>>551777530Germany because you're permanently stuck fighting things that were made specifically to counter you, and also that came after contemporaries.Also UK if you play tanks.
>>551800503Buying a top tier premium is less about the vehicle itself and more about the tree it effectively grants you access to.
>>551800420
>>551800192The Ki-87 is pretty nice
Hello everyone
>>551800762still, the game isn't in a good enough (fun enough) state rn to justify some of these price tags. Like another anon said its hard to even get excited about the implementation of a new vehicle/weapon system when you know it'll just be thrown in the same shitty map/gamemode you've been playing for 10 years now.
Norinco VN-11 when?
What's better to play for Britain, 10.3 or 10.7?

>>551801552>It was converted from obsolete Type 59 medium tank. Holy shit.
>>551801552Type 59, yeah.
>>551801552It's based on the Type 59P and there's barely anything left of it except for the base of the chassis, tracks and roadwheels. Hull, armor, turret, engine, transmission etc are all newVN-20 is the same thing but with a VT4 hull and an uncrewed version of the ZBD04's turret
>>551801313any chance for any non-new vehicle related content updates anytime soon? like maps at least?
>>551801552Wait until you find out about the BMP-55
wait until you find out about kharkovchanka
>>551801371Temunator
>>551803456
>>551801552T-54A, actually.
>>551788760I'd argue it's mandatory in naval and in case you start a new nation from scratch because even if you play Arcade with premium vehicles it'll still take forever to get it high enough.And contrary to popular belief, crew skills are borderline broken and OP depending on the tank/ship so the sooner you max them out the easier games you'll have.
>>551789768amazing how the tables turn and the wehraboo muh invincible taiga tank fanboy evolved into the muttant muh invincible ayybraps tank fanboyliteral 1:1 same scenario just a different flavor of faggot flag
>>551793601It unironically turned me from what'd be considered a pre-2016 lefty into an antisemitic racist who always thinks about stereotypes first and foremost when dealing with new peopleI just wanted to play my favorite planes man
>>551785912>slow piece of shit>10 year reloadNo
>>551803893Difference is we actually know the Tiger's armor specs and they at least followed it, with the Abrams its basically a paper tank, its top secret so Gaijin guessed at the lowest possible (or impossible) choice and went with that because of where they're from, only real data they have on the Abrams is from the 1980s models and that's what present in very top tier in the game now, easy to go for the higher fantasy numbers when it comes to T-90s tho))

>>551804904deep down you know its all true you just chose to ignore it because you want your matches easier for your chosen pidor faction
>>551804745>30 tons of extra weight is ignoredbut it isnt ignoredeveryone knows and acknowledged that it's because american tankers are all morbidly obesedid you just start playing this year or something?
what would this updated be like? terminator? vs what else?
>>551805515su30mk2 vs fa18c early
>>551805745ok true
>>551805515Marnes v. Amiens
So the only real difference between the M1A2/M1A1 HC and SEP/V2 is the thermals resolution, does that warrant the .7 BR difference? I'd even argue that the lower weight on earlier models makes them superior in a lot of scenarios
>>551804339It's not like an average Russian can just go to the town square with a ruler and measure the armor thickness of Abrams or Leopard.Oh wait...
gonna try getting into WT. is the tank aspect more popular than the plane aspect?
>>551807473yes, planes are boring as fuck due to the amount of downtime
why are mainline chinese MBTs still taking so long to be addedwhy is it all export variants
>>551807428Challenger 2 trunnion fix any day now... ain't no way it's actually empty, right?
>>551808474>Chinese MBTs>MBTs of any kind I'd prefer seeing anything but MBTs for this entire year.
>>551807473Yes but play whatever you like. Planes are the best designed mode because that's what the game was originally about but ground realistic is the most popular mode.
>>551807428gaijin never did this, and those are literally m1 abrams, avg disingenious comment from a 10.3 ruspig
subtree ships when?I want a cuckstal boat with 203mm guns
>>551809148but it would be an actual new MBT, not just another Abrams or T80.

>>551809148you dont understandsissy autocannons and SPAA win wars look at any conflict! tanks are made of paper!!!
>>551809589And it's still better then GRB

HOLY FUCKING SHIT THE EU SERVER IS OVERLOADED WITH THE CHINESE
>>551810384and people said this game is not historically accurate
>>551809947brits have never lost a conflict(unlike russians who always lose unless they rape white people after others do their fighting for them)yet all their vehicles perform the absolute worst while fake russophile ones that only explode irl, outperform everyone on every tier
video games are not real life

>>551813643Sure thing!Apparently, the anonymous user that posted >>551813630 is frustrated as he can't seem to be able to properly use HEAT tank shells in the historical multiplayer videogame "War Thunder", and he spent premium currency in an effort to balance out his lack of skill in the game!

>>551812075it's painfully slow at a tier where everyone goes fast. Battles are almost over before you see any action. If you have to ask it's not for you.

OHHHH OHOH AHAH
>>551813630>The HEAT jet literally curves around the ammo rack.
>>551803704Personally I find it absurd that lvl 1 bozos can buy top tier jets, where lvl 60 expert crew are pratically mandatory to not immidiately fucking explode and die from first manouver you take since your pilot has no gay tolerance nor staminaEven tier III (premium) planes choke somewhat until you hit lvl 10 crew and can expert them, if anton was less of a nigger the planes would come with some sort of crew level boost

why cant I put a scout marker on helicopters?
>>551815340i personally couldnt use even the uav droneflight models for fpv drones were THAT bad in the cbtit's mind boggling that the devs didn't just copy the heli fms since they're the closest thing and instead hybridized plane and heli

>tanks are just modeled as heavy bombers which explains the wonky driving physics>the turret(s) of a tank are literally just modeled as bomber turrets with armor
why the FUCK is level 100 still the max
>>551823502Because it means 100% retarded and you can't get higher than that.
>>551821373where are your proofsnext you'll tell us the reason that bombers are so easy to kill is because they're still operating on a version of Hull Break concealed by having its triggering projectile instantly fullbreak an irrecoverably large part like the full tail assembly, fuselage half or mid-wing section regardless of the actual objective damage of the impact or any preceding impacts to any of the real airframe components in question
>retarded friend has been seething constantly about things like the gepard coelian xm246 xm800 and za35>never said anything bad about the bmd niggerwagon or tries to pretend he didnt see my question>bmpt comes out>immediately buys it>sounds like the biggest damage controller for this piece of shitHe also claims ziggeria is not the country he mains yet he mostly plays their niggerwagons. I finally managed to get an answer out of him why the Terminator is allowed to be a niggerwagon while things like the Marksman or Coelian aren't. It's because they're SPAA. That's the entire argument. What do you call this kind of mental deficiency?
>>551825180the SPAA ones are fucking 8.3 and murder-rape everything just as hard, if not harder, than the BMPTthe only real difference is the SPAA at 8.3 are easily killed, while the terminator is a literal niggerbunker
>>551826115>the SPAA at 8.3 are easily killed, while the terminator is a literal niggerbunkerForgot to mention he's also fine with the Terminators being niggerbunkers but the AA are still more cancerous somehow according to him.
the BMPT is abhorrently op and would still be op at 11.7
>>551826439I mean, the SPAA are cancerous, they have better APFSDS and better gun handling, and are mostly faster.The BMPT is still fast though, has ATGMS, and as stated is a nigger bunker.Both are cancerous blights on the game.
Why the FUCK can I be this close to their singular spawn and not be detected lmao

How does the game say 200,000 people online but I've never seen more than 300 queueing for a game at once?
>>551833084Why do you thing the queue times are so short (usually)?
>have 2.0+ kda on essentially all the 10.3-10.7 MBTS>Leopard 2A4 kda is barely above 1.0>negative kda in the radkampfwagen 90 and the TAM 2cI cant figure out why this is either...
>>551834263for me, Leo 2A4 is 3.0 KD+ but win rates are at 38%it's about the teams
>>551831682why not use free SPAA generously provided by gaijin cumrade? ))))
>>551834740it's stats are similar or better than the M1 Abrams, and I don't think I play it that differently, but I just cant seem to get as many kills in it

Why won't amerikans spawn claws at 12.whatever matches? I constantly see ruskies spawning bucks then I look at amerikan side there's only 9.something spaas?
>>551838339)))))))))))
>>551838339>Why won't amerikans spawn claws at 12.It's not great, and can't really deal with contemporary aircraft, the NASAM's -ER. isn't any better because gaijin are demanding "proper documentation" to prove that the 10" motor is shared with the ESSM. AIM-9X-2 is shit too.Honestly they would be better of by implementing 200RPM 30mm HE-VT and a hemispheric AESA radar via the Sgt. Stout (M-SHORAD Increment I) to better deal with incoming ordnance. Replacing the FIM-92A / AGM-114L with the prospective NGSRI contender "Quad Star" missile would be nice for balancing purposes if need be, we already have the not even flown ye, let alone type classified JAGM-MR
>>551838268I do that 90% of the time
Why do the Tornadoes have 2 versions of the normal Mk83s (not the retard ones) that are identical? They only show up when you click on a weapon slot, not in the list of weapons.

When is Gaijin going to fix that retarded shit where bombs spawn on top of your plane when you drop them?
>>551841945Cancer Car
>>551842618stop being racist
>>551839878>demanding proper documentationI guess the 'feelings' of US players doesn't matter?but when a USSR player says 'I feel like the FW190 is overperforming' it gets hotfixed in a week?
>>551842618Can't believe you want actual physics and things not behaving in nonsense ways.
When are they going to make bombs skip across the ground instead of immediately digging themselves into the ground?
when you cease your relentless russophobia
>>551842920>but when a USSR player says 'I feel like the FW190 is overperforming' it gets hotfixed in a week?Or when "proper documents" are from a blogpost made a couple of days beforehand where the top secret pentagon documents of a test are for some reason written in slavicrunes.
>>551843614dont forget the nerf to M735 due to a faked report, that Gaijin acknowledged was fake 3 years ago, yet they still haven't undone the nerf!
>>551842780Is this thing even that bad anymore?
>>551843705No racism outside of /b/ please
>>551844885You literally have to hold down 'W' the entire time. You cannot stop moving.

Is it worth the 20 bucks? I want it so badly.
So uh... what the fuck am I meant to do in my Puma if I run into a terminator? Even side shots don't fucking work because not only do I need to get through the ERA, I also have to hope the spall liner doesn't eat the damage.Seems like the only actual way to get any damage to it is shooting it from behind.
>Naval has some of the most egregious balance issues in this whole game but it never gets brought up because like maybe 30 people are queuing at any given timeIt's kind of impressive how mismanaged this whole thing has been for years now
>>551846193the funny thing is that there have been like 10 reworks already
>>551842920>'I feel like the FW190 is overperforming' it gets hotfixed in a week?This is the most egregious thing ever done thus far.
>>551846079just fucking do itI'm hanging out at reserve
>>551846079depends on how much you like cbt. like most pasta vehicles, it's abysmal dogshit but feels very rewarding when you get more than 2-3 kills before getting rapedit's only going to raise in price so might as well get it now desu just like stürm, make sure to raise the sight to about 50 meters when you spawn in or you'll want to kill yourself after a match or two
>>551846190die)))))))))))))))))) what you want us to balance game that's very racist of you(((((((((((((((((((
>>551847538shit like this makes me realize that I am just another run of the mill shittert. 0 nukes
>>551847592of course, my bad, I guess I'll just have to wait until I unlock the Puma with spikes and jam spikes down their buttholes )))
>>551847820Oh woops we have broken spikes for balance reasons )))))))))))))))))))))))
>>551847820the BMPT has a broken damage model that prematurely detonates all missiles before they hit it causing them to do little to no damage, enjoy!

Reminder that the only reason the F-5 has a crazy FM is because Gaijin accepted Russian documents on the aircraft over American ones.

>>551847714I've only gotten a total of like 6(7)? nukes, and only dropped about half of them, and I barely feel better than average.I even have like 500 more wins than losses.
>>551803017lol no
>>551852339I thought only dropped nukes count? (the ones that actually add to your counter)I actually have 2 nukes that I didn't get to drop
>>551795413Thea easiest solution would be to just throw in a radar-less AH-64DJP. Alternatively Japan needs to hurry their asses up and show some prototypes from their armed UH-2 and UH-60ABH studies. Gaijin could go really wild and give us the AH-2, but it realistically won't happen even though it fits in the "unfinished prototype" category since everyone is still assblasted from the F-16AJ being added.
>>551853793Ah, well I might have a couple more nukes then, maybe 10-ish total, from memory at least.I still feel like a total scrub half the time I am playing, while the other half I feel like GOD.
>>551852339
>>551853905I've only got one nuke, playing the VADS in arcade, but it counts

Is the 2000c still worth using now that its 12.7 or should i just go for the rafale?

>>551860046Should be possible if you could track down an older user-skin.Might need to do a basic edit job to patch them together.
when is kate going to be on sales?
>>551859957When Rank 9 is added it will probably get access to 5th gen IR missiles and be sent to a BR of 16.x
>>551859957its worse because its slightly heavier
>>551860103I miss the month after previous patch when ground vehicles stopped moving at all and you could bomb the entire convoy stacked up on the spawn point...
>>551860218Haven't found one that would fix the issue, guess they never touched up on the glass much. Best I could find is pic related with gloss effect of some kind
>>551860046probably yeah, just open up the _n.dds ""normal"" texture (no longer normals since the PBR upgrade years ago but kept the name) and look up which channels go to which and go at it
>>551807347They're all shit anon, best to wait for the SEPv3 with its APS and actual armor. I would've said that the first abrams due to its BR and 10.0 ~ 10.7 lineup but BMPTs ruined it.
>>551861552>and actual armorYou got any proofs?
>>551860103This isnt even a Sim thing. Korea in grb had moving convoys and a load of objectives that you could actually finish and get done to win the match. There was a lot more interesting shit going on in ARB back in the day instead of just ovals of howitzers
why is HATO so bad?
>>551863421Pretty grim, then, that the ovals of howitzers are STILL much more exciting than the literal NOTHING that exists in GRB besides player vehicles (and base AA I guess). ARB might've lost a bit of its scale/immersion, but GRB hasn't had any for 11 years ever since they removed the AI units from Kursk. As well, remember when each team had off-map artillery as actual units somewhere on the air portion of the map? It actually fired when someone called in an artillery strike and you could get to it as a plane and destroy it, denying the enemy team their artillery strikes. Fucking hate esportsshittification and "no fun allowed" sterilization of everything.
>>551864397>5 td symbolslet me guess, all of those are terminators?

I'm glad they released that OP russian terminatorone more reason not to touch this game above 9.3.
>SHITTIN this much BRIXX over a glorified BMP-2glad mutt/germutt players got outted as shitters
>>551825180There is only one BR at which Terminators are and it's soon going to be top tier.SPAA are a constant cancer from like 6.0 above. Also, Terminator is arguably a vehicle likely to fight other tanks, it's just undertiered and badly modeled because ))))))))). All of these issues could be solved by taking away any and all armor piercing ammunition from them all, SPAA will actually need to focus on aircraft and Terminator just becomes another Soviet ATGM carrier on a tank chassis like IT-1 or Object 775.

why doesn't every tank just have a reverse gearbox>inb4 muh complexity
ACK!!
>>551866629>why doesn't every tank just have a reverse gearboxThe tradeoff is that the forward gears would otherwise be halved and so the progressive ratios harder to keep in the engine's power band for optimal acceleration and so degrades acceleration / top speed (depends on how aggressive the profiling of the gear ratios that are selected) significantly. At least if you use the Gearbox to reverse.Otherwise using reversible Torque converter requires a much greater volume to be used.
>>551867164but russian MBTs are slower in reverse anyway, what gives?
>>551867467the reasoning has been all in on the torque until like 20 years ago, since a tank generally reverses only if it can't turn around it better go when required to

Why do missiles instantly nosedive into the ground if I fire them while moving? My barre/gunsights are perfectly stable, so why does missile behave so weird?
>>551869221highly situational and expensive to replace.
>>551871898what nation?
>>551871994>expensive to replaceYeah, it's not like they just grow on...wait a minute...
>>551871898Gaijin has the guidance boresight plane projected from the current gunsight, not the actual optical sensor in order to avoid parallax issues. and with no control surface adjustment to account for this alignment error it immediately commands full surface deflection with no attenuation which causes it to oscillate significantly.The missile dropping is realistic but significantly overstated TOW's for example should only drop ~50ft at 300 meters
