Idk why but this shit is making me tear up
>>563252550Had some fag crying abloos because he couldn't just brain numbingly fly straight, press 2 keys and top score and get a bomber with a fighter anymore kek.He was chimping out when someone told xher it was good since people could focus on the SEAD aspect of the event more.
>>563252787To be fair this guy did get TK'd by a chinese name on an A-10 but it still is really funny
>>563252887The way he types makes me believe he deserved it. Hope he killed the chink afterwards too.Was it even the medium nuke?

>>563254001>>563254294Which airfields should be the first to go?
>>563256053coast are the easiest, mountain pass ones are second easiest, obviously the middle one is the single most importantodds are a fourth of the team will quit once that and the coast strip goes
I Require more abrams, I shall buy the Anime pack
>>563256053if you are on the RUS side, go for the mountain side first as its the safest route for mutts and they will use it to flank all your airfields and AA sitesif you are on the US side, take the beach airfields, its a very safe route for pidors and they WILL spam su-24s through thereyou should also prioritize the bugged BUK site as USA, the others are not that big of a deal, for RUS all the hawks are equally as bad, but the mountainside one has a perfectly open view of the middle valley and starts shooting as soon as you take off
>>563253995>no thermals and mid dart at 11.0is this thing even any good
Do I go with APKWSs or Hydras?>>563258552Doesn't it have like a 4 second reload?
well?
Which ones are gone?
>took out all of the theater level AA>have enough spawn points for Tu95>take mig25 up to high altitude to try to sweep out their campers>team runs out of tickets because our airspace has been completely porous and phantoms have been nuking depots on cooldown all game since our miggers are shit.All of the F-4S and J's on the other team didn't help. The mig is arguablly a little bit better than the ligma boosted 4E, but the 4S and J are head and shoulders superior. Maybe the lineups will be more balanced in the future if/when they bring this mode back.
Why is SEAD way easier with NATO attackers? Why do Rolands take too long to fire to let you turn and run to a safe distance?
>>563256943This but with Arietes
>>563261194What tactics dude? I can't seem to get rid of the convoy AA before the depot AA fires on me, and if I fire on the depot AA the convoy AA fires on me and I insta die because it's at >5km.

>>563261938Have you not tried not being retarded and effortlessly destroying them at the start of a match?
>>563261538For the russian side, since the PvP nerf I've started starting with the Su-24 with 7x Kab500s (the GNSS guided ones). I do a couple of kamikaze runs against the entrenched tanks at low altitude and then popup around 10 or so km. Once the CCRP indicator says to drop, I nose down and fly directly at the entrenced tanks, then swap to targetting pod and quickly spam all 7 bombs at stuff. Then, while the bombs are in flight, I use CCIP guns to throw every cannon round that I have at the flakrakrad. It's suicide but I'll take a few of them out with me and quickly I'll have 300sp. If you're using welfare stuff, I guess Su-25 with harms and vikhrs might be alright.Once I have 300 SP, I spawn a mig-23 with the mini-nuke and start hunting the hawk and patriot emplacements. I haven't decided on the best order to knock them out, but the north and south hawks are the lowest hanging fruit. Might be best to knock out the north hawk and then open up a hole for you to flank and hit the patriots. Normally low altitude approaches climbing into a CCRP drop is best. The middle hawks can be a bitch to approach from the ground though with the new airfield positioning. Might be best to wait to attack them until after the su24s have hit the airfields, or attempt a higher altitude drop. Mig23 should be able to high altitude drop the hawks but it might be suicide if they shoot at you early. You should be able to get the bomb off before death.Once the theater level AA is dead, it's probably best just to spam mini nukes at depots from higher altitudes. I want to drop the big nuke, but I haven't been able to clear the theater AA, earn 2500sp, AND singlehandedly clear out the high altitude airspace in time.
>>563262525i said in a pinch, like when trying to take a more direct route to nuke enemy hawks that crosses between two depots
>>563261742okay, this explains everythingI thought it got stock ERsI knew something was very off
>>563262632Have you tried not flying directly to your target in a straight line and using all whooping 256km of map the devs gave you?
>>563262551>>563261538For USA, it's mostly the same idea except for starting you can use the GBU8s on the F4E. Osas kind of suck at intercepting those. I haven't tried it yet since I'm still spading the plane, but I just unlocked the F-111F and I'm going to try to use the thermal pod to target enemy static tanks from 15km out and then toss 750lb bombs at them with the CCRP computer from 4-5k altitude. They don't intercept dumb bombs, so I'll just be awkwardly bombing things with CCRP.
>>563262687there is no time
>>563262551Can you show which route you take first? Assuming with a welfare Su-25T or an A-7E.This is really useful by the way, really appreciate your tips and help.
>>563262896this for RU side, go for the entrenched tanks with the su-25t with vikhir loadout, wait until the roland fires, fire an ARM, evade, then kill tanks with vikhirsonce you have the MLD with nuke, go for the HAWKs, easy SP, use CCRP toss bombingtake the blue routes to bomb enemy airfields, once again CCRP is your friend, leave the center airfield for last as that one is very hard to reach since its right next to an elevated hawk sitetake the green routes if you really love SEAD
>>563262896I'm actually the guy who made that map. I haven't done enough sorties to definitively say that this is the way to go about doing things, but it works for me. Green are routes that I've taken as USA, pink are routes that I've taken as USSR. I only interact with the saclos clusterfuck in the opening stages of the game by using attackers to brute force some static tanks to pay for my first nuke. Then I just flank and bomb stuff with low altitude approaches and CCRP bomb tosses. I generally have been exclusively using the smallest nuke. Teammates more or less can be relied upon to pay up for medium nukes to kill airfields. There is less competition going for the theater AA. The hawk sites are particularly juicy since there are so many little launchers and radar sites in the nest. I swear it's something close to 1000 score to nuke one.It might actually be easier to attack the s300/patriots than it is to attack the middle two hawks/buks. They're just sort of a bitch to approach if the airfields haven't been knocked out yet. Higher altitude bombing against them is possible, but I haven't succeeded at that with F-4E yet. I have succeeded with mig23, but sometimes it's a pyrrhic victory where they kill me after I drop. But it's hard to tell if higher altitude drops vs the hawks/buks are really viable or if you just got lucky and they wasted time shooting teammates instead of you.Anecdotally hugging the highway or the beach is the safe way to approach tidewater buk. I've had success doing that, but again you might have just gotten lucky. It's probably safer to hit north first as USA and buildup a buffer of SP before risking assailing tidewater.Once the theater AA is all dead, you honestly can probably just side climb on your side of the map to ~4-5km and drop on depots from above the saclos. I want to drop the big nuke, but it hasn't been in the cards.
we did it /wtg/eddit!
>>563262896>>563264394>>563264498I fucking love /wtg/ sometimes.
>>563264519>>>>>>compressorAre all Russian players this stupid or are you the exception.
>>563264541>>563264498>>563262896One more thing. When flanking you probably want more flares than chaff. Multipathing will probably protect you from most F-4S/J sparrows (except the smart ones lofting their shots from high alt), and should protect you from russian mig's 24Rs. If you bump into anyone else, then I like to pre-flare rather than reactive flare. Just pop one flare every 2 seconds or so and they'll have a bitch of a time acquiring a lock in the first place. If you see an Su-25T, give it some space. Don't let it get within ~1.5k or 2km. R-73s can be a bitch up close, so don't let him get close.The theater AA has been a very good source of score for me, few of my teammates are competing against me for it, I don't need medium nukes for it, and few enemies have tried to stop me.Depots can potentially be lucrative if you catch them when a convoy is staging there, but everyone is gunning for the depots, the depots are crawling with SACLOS, and members of the furball might fuck with you.Watch the kill feed. If a teammate nukes some of the theater AA, check the map for the nuke explosion marker and mentally note which one that he blew up.One last thing, I think that it should be obvious but it might not be. I designate the CCRP target for my bombs by clicking on the map rather than looking at the ground. This gives me a point of reference that I can watch from long range. You should be able to get close by looking at the png map and cross referencing with the in-game map (the AA is normally on top of hills, so note those topographical marks). But if the AA ever gets spotted, then you can easily mark the bomb site with perfect precision.
>>563264707came selected by default and didn't bother checkinggonna piss your pants about it?
>>563262896If you're not familiar with how to do CCRP bomb drops, then watch a youtube video about it. It's pretty straightforward but you will need to know how to designate sensor points of interest to target the bombs, and how to grant the computer permission to drop the bombs so that you're not manually dropping them. For the US team, the GBU8 guided bombs on the F4E are surprisingly effective at bypassing the osa's defenses for some reason. I'm curious if they're failing to trigger the proxy fuse. Give them a try if you're struggling to get ground kills as USA.
>>563264394nta but do you ever switch to the su24+nuke? specifically for airfield bombingand do you use that medium nuke for patriot sites or just gun run them? gepards mulch anything flying low at 2km
>>563265623just roll
>>563266675what
>>563265623NTA, but I just keep using the mig23 nuke. It's big enough to kill the patriots. Med is obviously better for airfield bombing, but my teammates trip over themselves to bomb those.>gepardsThey shouldn't even come into play. Use the map to designate the patriot/hawk sites from long range. Approach at ~40-50m. Then when you start getting close, maybe somewhere between 8 and 9km, pull up sharply and use CCRP to drop. You'll never get within range of gepards.
>>563266930Ahhh okay I think I get what you mean. Clear AA first then go for the airfields. All after rushing to get the MiG-23 nuke ASAP.Well I tried it sans the AF nuking and I got to 1800SP really quickly. I'll try going exclusively for the Patriot sites next match and see how I fare.
>>563267198The airfields are important, but what I'm saying is that plenty of people will do it. Why risk the extra SP and potentially be caught watching your airfield explode before your risk it? The cheaper nukes kill the AA just as good as the medium ones.
How'd I do? I messed up some nukes and died a couple of times while flying nuke planes. Got 3 Patriot sites.
You shouldn't be able to late spawn into an escalation 3 match.
>>563268053Eh, I don't mind it too much. One, joining late can give you shorter matches, which can be nice for variety. Two, if Join-in-Progress was disabled N minutes into the match, the games could become unbalanced in terms of player counts by the end, so the minor inconvenience of joining very late isn't comparable to the absolute bullshittery of having to play a 4v16 or something.
If this event has showcased anything is that queue times would be non-existent if Gaijin wanted so, for any gamemode. I can leave, requeue, and join a brand new match that is about to start many times within a minute.Crewlock and queue times are the most disgusting Gaishit handicaps in the game, literally hate their playerbase if they keep them on.
>R2>Losat>MGM-166 all beam riding missiles and can't be fired on the move, why?

>>563269712Does it happen to you? Since you need to hold space bar or whatever button for CCRP bombing.
>>563269810Nope but I'm not surprised it does for you.Make sure you have it unbound.
>>563269678create backup of controls and reset them
>>563269843>>563269848I tried controls from WT Live and it still tracks for holding fire second/drop bomb button. I think my game is just broken.
>>563270265got any extra controllers, pedals, steering wheel connected to pc?
>>563270265Make a backup of your controls, reset them and try again. If it still doesn't work import your keybinds. If it does take a screenshot of everything you think is different and go step by step changing 1 relevant keybind at a time until you get it right.
why is the chinese f104g .7BR higher than the german one despite it not having flares and the german one doesthey have the same missile loadout too
>>563262551>>563264394>>563264498>>563265218>>563267331You guys are genuinely the best people we've had in this thread since forever, just got my first big fuckoff nuke in the Tu-95 thanks to you. I pray your lives are full of nothing but joy and blessings from this day until your last.
>just realized the tu-95 can only carpet bomb with 6 bombs at mostwhat the heck bros? why did the amerisharts have to get the cool stuff?
>>563271170I've never managed to drop the big nuke. There is always a squad camping the bomber spawn.
>>563272002I did as adviced and managed to rake 7k+ score by the time the enemy team was barely breaking 2.5k and the second guy on my team got 3-4k~ from nuking airfields.If I had to guess the key to this tactic is speed, I fumbled a couple of spawns by trying to reach AA batteries sooner so that could be fixed to get it even sooner, when nobody suspects and the forward airfields are still up.Took a huge risk because there was only 1 American at spawn alt but I'm guessing he was an F-4J/S slinging Sparrows at low alt MiG-23s and nobody else was looking my way.Lucked out because the only airfield left was the main one too, so just try to get it ASAP.
>>563272168I'm glad it worked out well for you. I don't think I'm going to be lucky enough to drop the big nuke by the end of the event, but at least finishing the event should be smooth sailing.
now that the dust has settled, which bomber will be better in the usual battles?
>>563273152Unless they give either an array of cruise missiles, they're both hangar queens.
>>563273356what stop them from giving cruise missiles? are they too OP?
>>563273398Probably no, but reddit sperged the fuck out when they almost gave Russia the GROM-1 and this would just be more of the same.>Oh NOOOO. Think of my Ground RB spaagot!!! You can attack me from 80km away with GPS precision. I can't just drive around to a different spot in the intervening 5 minutes.or>think of people just attacking bases in air RB right after spawning. That threatens my ability to bomb bases with my F15. Ignore that the missiles are much slower than jets and won't arrive until 5 minute after the match ends.
>>563273647yeah considering every spaa has iron dome precision, those missiles would be easy to shoot down
>>563275134unc/new player cope

I hate this event so fucking much.
10.3-11.3 used to be my favourite BR to playfor months it's still ruined by bmptniggersso much fun
If you like multipathing, you hate jets.
>>563297806Don't play it then?
>>563290358Someone who knows better can correct me if I'm wrong but I believe it indicates that a round uses the standardized "modern dart" formula to calculate post-pen spall whereas shitty early darts with the chode model still use the APDS formula
>>563298387multipathing is necessary until gaijin fixes the near useless jets if multipathing didnt exist
>>563297806just dont play it lil bro
>>563296476thank you, im always trying my hardest
i want to play the event in sim
>>563271956Because tu95 was a nuke carrier first and foremost, mutts thought of actually using b52 for carpet bombing
>>563300704What makes a jet useless?

Can't wait for the enemy to come into MY team's anti-air death bubble.
>>563301787flight models, lack of chaff, dog shit rwr getting uptiered and facing missiles you'll never be able to deal with
>>563299156Nah, all "apfsds_long" coded rounds have the exact same spall formula (spall depends on residual penetration). Even the M735 is classified as a long rod, if you were to tweak it's penetration values and bring it up to say DM53's levels, it would have the same exact damage as DM53
>>563301827>>563301961Add chaff and decompress problem solved
>>563302551>spall depends on residual penetrationSpall is residual penetration?
https://files.catbox.moe/4axt6j.webmwho was in the wrong here
>>563302639yeah too bad they wont decompress because of queue times or some dumbshit they conveniently dont care about queue times at early jets though aint that something
which phantom is the best to use if i just think they're neat planes?
>>563303162Probably the F-4E, it's perhaps the most well-rouned one for its BR.
>>563303162the ej kai i think
>>563303162kurnass 2k or ej kaif4s is good but your teammates are actually braindead
>>563303327>same BR as the F/A-18A that's the EXACT same plane but strictly, massively better in absolutely every metric imaginableLolmao.
>>563303162F-4J without doubtI also like phantoms
why the fuck is the M26 Pershing at 6.7?same BR as the M26E1 and M26E5
>>563303435he asked for the best phantom, i assumed for ARB, which is still the ej kai regardless of BR fuckery
>>563303162I'm quite fond of EJ Kai. It offers quite a wide skill floor to ceiling range.
>>563303310Seconding this, anything higher than 11.3 and phantoms are simply not fun. The japanese EJ at 11.0 is by far the most fun phantom experience you can have in war thunder, and even that isn't all that fun sadly.
>>563303941>which is still the ej kaiIt absolutely fucking isn't. F-4E (or the Kurnass if for whatever stupid reason you wasted your time on the kike tree), F-4J/S and, believe it or not, the basic F-4EJ are the best ones that don't have just themselves but way better at their respective BRs, in that order. The F-4EJ used to be a strictly worse F-4E but now it gets a more favorable matchmaker that completely excludes it from ever seeing Gen 4s, and making the non-DF Sparrows to work can be a fun challenge since they aren't without their strengths (most notably the supply of the things and the CW seeker). I'd GLADLY take it over the MiG-23M, which it shares a BR with.
>>563303162Kurnass. And FGR.2.
>>563304604>FGR.2There's literally zero reason to play the bong Phantoms over the F-4J/S.
>>563304718the royal navy phantom looks cool

Vitebsk is shit i need my new systems
dircm in this game is a fantasy force field that magically deflects missiles
its like that in real life

Not just an omnipotent 365x365 degree zone of absolute detection. Search radars and IRST's in wt already function like that so why shouldn't heli sensors? That way sensor view would display each sensors view along with its deadzones. Helicopter sensor arrays dont just overlap eachothers right from the get go so launching missiles from their deadzones should guarantee a hit considering that the missile was never detected in the first place.The lower DIRCM turrets also have limited range of motion and their jamming should only affect a missile if it can turn towards it and in sensor view it should also be visible. Gayjew should also apply that exact same logic to ground APS.What i meant by calling it radar was that gaijin should reuse the same mechanics current radar systems already use in wt that we can visibly see within the sensor view instead of just making it ranged spherical killzones On unrelated note, IRCM should if anything increase the possible lock on zone but at the same time make the missile sway and be less accurate the closer it gets since the closer it gets the more of its FOV gets obstructed by shining IR light. DIRCM was specifically designed to counter that limitation of regular IRCM.
only in /wtg/ will you see people hate gaijin and then moments later cock suck their dick if its against someone they vaguely dont like

I only know static sensors.>The lower DIRCM turrets also have limited range of motionwell, full coverage under the helicopter which can tilt up a little and cover the whole battlefield ahead.
>SEAD gives more points than air-to-air kills>but air-to-air kills still give more SP, so you can rush nukes faster and just SEAD with nukesThe incompetency at Gaijin is astounding. Do they even play their own game?
>>563316286>>DIRCM deflects IRCCM missiles like stingers but fails to do anything to more capable missilesDIRCM lasers shouldn't even do anything against stingers because most versions of them use dual-band IR+UV guidance. Stingers look for objects in front of the ultraviolet background light of the sky and infrared lasers would do nothing to a UV sensor.
>>563324320>we need the same for lws then Hopefully. Sensor view is a great tool but the game still retains retarded 2016 era lazy implementations>what do you mean right from the getgo? I only know static sensors.Picrel, The sensors attached on the airframe require quite a narrow FOV when we account for the range of detection in turn creating blindspots up close that are not covered entirely. It may be a few hundred meters or even a kilometer you'd have to do the math but before they start overlapping there's quite a bit of blindzone area. Sure you could assume that those sensors have fov of 0.5 but then resolution at longer ranges would be so utterly dogshit that those sensors wouldn't detect anything.>well, full coverage under the helicopter which can tilt up a little and cover the whole battlefield ahead.Well, i'd like gaijin to make it necessary to tilt the helicopter instead of just relying on static krok forcefields.RWR already works on that basis so why shouldn't DIRCM,IRCM,LWS ?>>563325025>Stingers look for objects in front of the ultraviolet background light of the sky and infrared lasers would do nothing to a UV sensor.Once blasted with UV DIRCM they become vulnerable to flares. Also there are both UV and IR systems. Arms race is called an arms race for a reason.I just want gaijin to implement those systems properly instead of halfassing it.

>>563327147J has 6 9Ps, G has 4.
>>563327449I recall the missiles being very funky with the constant G load from spinning but they were workable. I think they should have left it be rather than limiting possible missiles guided to two.
>>563327707>limiting possible missiles guided to two.its unlimited at least in the ka52 and mi28nm as long as they are launched within 4s

>>563347939It is definitely not worse, what are you smoking? The only thing worse is the height, but it has DM53, LWS, commander thermals and a faster reload out of tge box.
The event filtering all the shitters here proved only one thing, and one thing onlyThat all the shilling about nuclear option is artificial.SPAA is way more cracked, dangerous and "unfair" in NO than was in the event, and yet all the niggers that were saying "I WISH NO WOULD KILL WT IT'S BETTER" are crying about OSAs and HAWKsYou are pathetic

>>563360371see >>563356559
>>563360434I wouldn't have bothered but the star was there and my tism wanted it, the event gives rp anyway, and at the end of the day I think it is better than ARB despite being topslop onlywill mildly miss it, surely it'll be even worse when it pops up again
>>563360434Last shot at an actually "good" gamemode before going back to the barren wasteland of High Tier\TTARB?The star comes automatically after 1 (one) match and it basically gives you 20-40k RPs worth of mods on the bombers
>>563360434You get modifications and you spend time in a more enjoyable mode.
>>563361252>Last shot at an actually "good" gamemode before going back to the barren wasteland of High Tier\TTARB?You think I'll play planes after the event ends?LOL!The mode is just not enjoyable as someone who wants to have fun with air to air combat in it's current stateThere have been exactly 0 times where I could dogfight someone and enjoy it because either he gets shot down by the AA in the middle of the first turn or I get shot down by the AA in the middle of the first turnIt was quite fun the first couple days when the SPAA's weren't literally 10km from one anotherThey need to nerf the SPAA's and drag them back so there's an area you can actually fight other players in without getting punished for daring to do more than die in headons

Not only are the timestamps befitting of samefagging, the posting style is even identical between posts
>>563361712What you are describing is you spawning in the central airfield and headbutting into the central furball, and you did that even after they put the airports back.There's plenty of A2A actual dogfights happening north in the mountains or south near\above the sea. And those are the ACTUAL dogfights niggers who were crying about a "6v6 less people mode" wanted, 1v1 - 2v2 without any kind of interruptions.Boot it up and go try it.You can even play the interdiction role and stop the flanking routes for nuclear bombings.The real problems is that people "don't enjoy" this because they have the star grinding mentality.They get less point by ACTUALLY playing the gamemode, and this leads to frustration.There's so much you can do in this mode compared to ARB.Hell, today i decided i wanted to destroy the 3x HAWKs battery and i did that. I didn't know if they respawned or not but after that i kept launching nukes from high altitude and i didn't get hit at all, so i guess they don't respawn or at least their forward radars don't?
>>563362573I don't want to fly 50km away from the battlefield and circle a mountain for 10 minutes in the hopes I can smack a nuke carrier out the skyThis is a lousy attempt at downplaying how dogshit the air to air combat of the mode is and you know it
>>563360371Well bloody said m8! Us based anons will continue to defend evropean culture and debate any Soros backed parakike shills into the ground.Praise KEK and keep on memeing King.
>>563362397No, its still better than ARB once you get over them making it slightly less fun
>>563362710Flying 10 is actually bombing the farthest airfield and coming back. You'll almost always getting in a fight just by going there and not even getting close to the frontlines.It takes actually takes less to get in a battle against another player in the positions i stated than if you spawned in the central airfield.You just don't want to even try it.

So what or who set off the schizo? was it you, naor?
>>563362973Correct, I don't want to go nuking airfieldsI want to fight peopleThere's not even a furball in the middle, everyone just dies to spaa's or headonsCCRP tossing nukes at depots/hawks/buks/patriots/s300's is incredibly tiresome and boring and rewards me with almost nothing besides score & SPDoing anything but nuke tossing is sure to lead to frustration from the AA. it's a cancer on the mode
>>563363376Yes, and i'm telling you that there is plenty of fair and uninterrupted dogfights in the locations i said, if you want the actual 1v1, 1v2, 2v1 or 2v2. If you prefer the classic ARB shitfest with missle spam that filters 90% of both teams is another matter
>>563363802This doesn't fucking happen manStop living in your headThere is hardly any air to air combat outside of slamming into people head first in the middle
>>563363979depends on the match honestly
>>563363979What do you mean by A2A combat?If you are talking 10v10 in the air shooting at each other, yes you are right.But if you are talking about 1v1 and 2v2, those are ALWAYS going on in these places. I've been playing with this mentality since they shifted the airfield with the "meta" out of my head. I start a match and i just tell myself, what i want to do in this match?>Want to drop the big nuke?>Want to play at high altitude?>Want to play SAED?>Want to play Interdiction against bombers?>Want to tree-skim into the furball without a brain attached?>Want to push them to their last airport?>Want to clear the S300\Patriot batteries for the team?The only role i cannot do anymore is the big bomber interdiction role, because they are so fucking rare now when before the A2A nerfs you could see even 4 of them in a normal match.

>>563379041These AI units don't care if your radar on, but an attentive player might. But in the low tier I'm not sure if any of the russian planes have RWRs advanced enough to fingerprint your plane. Maybe the Su-25t.

>>563381954
Should I bother with this?The US side was easy, they have plenty of good ground attack options and the F-4J is great for shooting down others, you don't even need to farm nukes, to get any score.
>>563388759Once you scrape together enough SP for a mini-nuke, scoring the rest of the way is trivial as USSR. Just equip the mig23 with the mini-nuke and start flanking around the map to nuke the HAWK and patriot sites with CCRP bomb tosses. The Mig23 is the fastest bomb truck.
>>563388759>they have plenty of good ground attack optionswhat are you smoking mate, the AKMs will shoot down anything in the air, and they are conveniently placed to cover each other too, trying to attack ground targets suck, because you can release all you ammunitions and score nothing because somehow the AA shoot it all down
A friend decided he was interested in playing war thunder.I'm a noob myself, still on my first tech tree (china) at rank VI.From what I understand to play together it's best to play either the same or similar nations correct? Could I theoretically also queue with non-allied nations or does that not work?Also if he were to choose china, where I have the vehicles already unlocked and most spaded at the br he'd start at, until I reach rank V (my current max rank -1) I don't gain any xp towards progression, so I basically only do it for spading or SL correct? If so I might ask him to choose any of the other nations so I can at least gain progression xp.
>>563381301Why do they always leave the hatch open, lack of ventilation?
>>563389564move your mouse cursor over your vehicles and look at the stat called research efficiency
It's insane how shit I am with the SU27SM0.75 KD I just can't into TT ARB
>>563389883Adding onto this I think a big issue with my KD is the fact that I was spading it when the 9th wave came out so I faced constant uptiers but that's just me huffing copium
>>563389883what is your loadout?
>>5633900526 R77s, 2 R27ETs and 4 R73sDoesn't really matter since I rarely get to use all of my munitions, I think a big issue is my positioning
i love this dumpster firetoo bad it doesn't get the pidornator treatment of putting out infinite fires without losing all your ammo
>>563389483The suck at shooting down the f4es gbu8s for some reason. They also are oddly shit at shooting down the f111fs agm120 and gbu15s.
>>563389684I am aware that that exists, but I don't quite understand how that relates to my questions.See picrel, a random low rank tank on the china tree. It has a research efficiency of 112%, but how is that relevant?
>>563390101>2 R27ETswhy not ERs?>positioningstay with the pack unless youre planning some cowboy shit
>>563390485I prefer ETs because no RWR ping, might switch 2 R77s for ERs though.
>>563390485Also for positioning I usually just multipath hard and stay with my team but I'm just not good enough with multipathing ig
>Holds WPidor?Yes pidor!
>>563390568>I prefer ETs because no RWR pingits a gimmick, I like to bring 4 77s and 4ers, the latter is the best sarh in game, why not use it instead.speaking of rwr, you can fire r27er and then turn off the radar/unlock the target, the enemy will gain confidence and advance. then you relock if they move too much or when the missile gets close. you can see the er moving on your radar screen.try to avoid shooting at multipathing targets, unless youre directly above them. if youre multipathing yourself, attack enemies 20km away and approaching you with hms. r77s are smarter and more maneuverable, less range though, so I use them for dire situations, and you can play defensive notchslop with them. lastly r73s are pointless they are flared easily just use them as aps - shoot at missiles and use the seeker with hms as irst if the enemy missile goes smokeless>>563390635be smart about your multipathing, map knowledge helps, water is your friend, mountains and pradesh with its 60m trees are your enemies. predict whether your radar altitude will go up according to where youre heading basically. I dont recommend multipathing that much in 12.7 downtiers since f14 missiles are basically a tutorial for notching
>Team gets stomped, die at the objective to tanks from two different angles>Realize when respawning that it's because we have MOTHERFUCKING 4 AA players>Spawn medium tank and drive to the objective>Die to an enemy bomberI'm about to crash out
>>563389564>Could I theoretically also queue with non-allied nations or does that not work?Of course, the matchmaker is racemixed as fuck nowadays, had you asked in 2016 the answer would have been different
>>563391208Thanks for the tips, I'm probably going to take a little break from it for a bit and watch some tutorials for TT ARB. I'll try out the ERs but I think I'll still keep 2 ETs. Even though they're a gimmick, the IRCCM on them is pretty good.
>>563391773I mostly play arcade so I figured that it may be a AB/RB thing where in arcade they don't care about nations and in RB they do.If that friends wants to play RB instead of AB I wouldn't be opposed to it, so I figured I'd ask.
>>563390329>2 agm 130s per sortie>most ground targets under at least 3 anti air unitsI don't know if they have fixed the respawn times so you can make it back with an a-10 before the respawn but at the start the were back by the time you made it back.And you also need to take care of the depot's 3 for most bases, technically 2 F-111 could clear a way for an A-10, but they would get shit rewards.Really the only way to do it is lobbing nukes since they don't shoot those down.
>>563391773>2026 matchmaking
>>563391996>>563390329Also they do shoot down the agm130s too, just less frequently. Maybe they don't prioritize those and they have enough speed to get close before they would get targeted.team work would make it easy, but you won't get rewards for that, classic gayjew.

Doesn't mean they still don't rape each other, but it's really interesting to see Russian drone tactics, vidrelated.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYRjVoo0OyA
>>563396053They sparingly use R77s because Russia burned through all of their good military stockpile really fast and are now left with older munitions.

>>563397572im kind of with him, that place may be behind russia but it still leagues ahead of united states or europe's armies
Did they move the airfields back to the original spots in the nuclear mode?
>>563397534Oh yeah it's just a retarded shitpost I find amusing. People talk about fifth gen stealth fighters, but even with fourth gen fighters, stealth has greatly diminishing returns.>>563397572>>563397667I'm not too educated on the subject, but I think with all of the Western and even Chinese support, the Ukrainian military and its drones are more capable. Russia is still making gains, but at the same time you have to compare economies and population.>>563397739Most Western drones are multi million dollar pieces of hardware, while Russia uses plastic bottles as fuel tanks. And the funniest part is that the Russian drones are absurdly more effective on a per cost basis.
>>563397974>People talk about fifth gen stealth fighters,everyone suddenly knows the rcs of each stealth jet even doe its top secret info that is not even an exact number that you can record once and be done
>>563397974chinks know the drone game better than anyone elsethey're the world's drone factory
>>563398149True, look at the F-35 that was damaged using just IRST. It's a really stupid thing to argue about.>>563398187They have the manufacturing, but the thing is they have no combat experience. They can have liaisons in the Russian military but that isn't even close to real experience. The closest thing they've had to modern combat was in 1969 and it was just a border skirmish. It's always funny to think about the border conflicts they're having with India, but they're only relegated to melee weapons.>>563398334Pidors are pidors and they're still retarded most of the time, but they were one of two nations fighting an actual modern war. It will be interesting to see what happens in Iran and how the US re-designs their doctrines. I'm honestly surprised that they haven't already taken the advice given by Ukraine to implement substantially more cheap drones for troops. But maybe they're working on it, though it has been 4 years and they aren't doing too well in Iran.
>>563398675>I'm honestly surprised that they haven't already taken the advice given by Ukraine to implement substantially more cheap drones for troops.They somehow do but in a very very expensive way like they always do.

>>563398830Hahaha that's hilarious. They really don't give a shit about cost, especially if the military budget actually goes up to 1.5 trillion. I wonder what Taiwan is doing now that it's clear the effectiveness of cheap drones that are mass produced to fight off a much more powerful invading force.
>>563398675>they have no combat experienceneither had hezbollah nor iranians but they've still proven mastery of drone warfare
>>563398918Hopefully we get a true combined arms mode now that we get infantry. BTRs and Bradleys driving the infantry players to the battlefield while helicopters and jets cover them from the sky.Oh and the 3 naval players have a river or something nearby to take popshots at everyone.
>>563398994Isn't the kmt negotiating in mainland china right now?
>>563399073I wouldn't say mastery, it's more like they're preying on very unprepared targets. Hezbollah has also been fighting Israel from 2023-2024, and there was probably some trickle down knowledge from Russia to Iran and to Hezbollah. I'm strangely excited about China invading Taiwan just to see the tactics used by both sides. A shame that it will completely blow up the economy though.Here's a picture of a MiG 29 to keep it war thunder related.
>>563399351those chinese robodogs are mad as hell
>>563399131be afraid mudsuckers, be afraid
>>563399278Oh shit they are, though it's the opposition leader, not the Premier. The KMT has also been doing this for a while while the DPP has always been extremely anti Beijing.
>>563399521They should add those Vietnam War brown water ships that shoot napalm flamethrowers to punish any infantry coming close to water.
>>563399558>The KMT has traditionally maintained warm ties with China, though Cheng's eagerness to visit contrasts with her predecessors' more cautious approach towards cross-strait relations, some analysts say.>Beijing has refused to hold formal dialogue with Taiwanese president Lai Ching-te, whom they have labelled a "separatist".>Lai has repeatedly committed to maintaining the status quo in cross-strait relations. But Chinese authorities and state media have heaped bitter rhetoric against him, calling him a "troublemaker" and "warmonger".

>>563399131Pretty much anything can fit into Nuclear Thunder with not much effort. The open-ended, sandboxy, low-stakes/expendable nature of the mode lends itself well to expansion into domains other than Air and unconventional vehicles like SAR and transport helis, EW planes and anything related to logistics.

>>563400785China doesn't have enough landing ships, ETA on an invasion is probably 2 years. But this implies that any neighboring countries, notably Japan, would not come to help Taiwan.

>>563403003right, but its still subsonic and even if it carries 2 ARH missiles its going to be 13.0
>>563403003Except it doesn't get any guided A2G missiles and only 2 R-73s. Unless you can find an image of the contrary.

T80B or T90A? T90A gets kontakt5 which is pretty busted + better thermalsT80B is a lot faster and gets better reloading but has kontakt 1 which is 'okay'
>>563401407>kab-500Kr is the only guided air to ground weapon available mehdoes it have thermals at least?
>>563403525T-80B much better
>>563401338>thinking they would ever bother with a military invasion, destroying the infrastucture that they actually care aboutit will be like hong kong. political and financial leaning, bribery, installation of pro mainland government officials, soft power, etc.there will never be a bullet fired
>>563403634Only the 130M can carry a targeting pod, I saw someone say its comparable to the SM3s thermals but I don't know where they got that info. The suggestion of the Yak-130 has been passed to developers for consideration last month.
is this a good landing
>>563403525Depends on your lineup BR I guessSince you are considering T-90A, I assume it's 11.0In which case use the T-72 Arena, seeing how it very similar to T-90A, but also has APS. Spikes are very common at this BR, so it does come in handy. Will save you from helis and occasional HEAT shell once in a while too

Why are the server replays broken up into billion chunks and still aren't rewindable?

Add the Karrar.
>>563413041because this game is game is built on a game from 2009
Why does the panzer IV's transmission sometimes sound like it's being raped to death when you change gears
>>563413041>>563413826Due to file size constraints, WT replays are not recorded videos. Instead, they store the mouse and keyboard inputs of each player in some .txt, which are then re-enacted by the game engine during playback.Because of this, the engine cannot simply “rewind” a replay, as it only processes inputs forward in time rather than reversing them.s
>>563414452You can rewind replays (or demos as they're known over there) in Source engine games just fine. Although admittedly those games are far smaller in scope, scale AND complexity.
crazy how it would take maybe a week of work (because you could make the community find the info for you) to just make ready racks actually make sense instead of randomly being the hardest to reach ammo/only 3 out of the 20 ready rounds/not a thing at all
>>563414452Works on my local replay.
>>563415391Yes but you can choose a chunk from which you can restart the simulation, you can't go back like if you are rewinding a video
>>563416158So why can't I do that with server replays which are devided into billion chunks already?

>>563421994No, I wouldn't know what I was looking for. Thanks for the backhanded hint though.
>>563401313The forbidden technique with the yak-38 and 141 is to use manual engine control to set the lift fan to full power while keeping the main engine set to full forward thrust. The lift fan pushes forward of your center of mass and lets you pull ridiculous aoa. Do not slow down enough that your elevator authority can no longer counteract the fan in level flight.

The 27's have a dogshit broken microwave radar that is just as likely to drop its spaghetti when he tries to reacquire the missile lock and waste the entire launch.It's a while since I've flown the 27SM in air RB. Back when I used it the contrail height was 5km, but it should still work.>on the average ARB map, the masses immediately head left and then multipath towards the enemy bomb targets>Sometime around the bomb target, the swarm splits into people that either turn towards the center to merge with the enemy team, or continue on to the other bomb targets>What you want to do is go left and climb on your team's "safe" side of the map. Stay below contrail height. Back then that was 5km, but you can probably go higher now.>you will need to defend against some long range spamraam attacks, but at these ranges you should be able to defeat them kinetically by just going cold or flying in bigass circles on your side of the line.>when the lemming swarms on both teams start turning towards the center to merge, you want to e in a high ground position to fling a bunch of R-77s at them. Try to angle your nose up for the launch to force some extra lofting on the missile.>The enemy is now pinched between missile spam from two directions, and odds are most of them will fuck up, panic, and get killed by someone's missile>the high angle of attack of your missiles makes them harder to multipathFor loadout, for a beginner you should just R-77max. Take as many as you can. Fuck the 27's. Just minimize the mental load on you. Once you are comfortable, I think you should take ~two 27ERs. Save them for situations where you are shooting into a furball where unleashing a pitbull fox3 would risk hitting a friendly, or situations where you judge yourself to be in a safe position and are unlikely to be attacked.

>>563424931>Colombian hangar
>>563427714>>563389883Also, have a "second spawn" loadout ready to go with at least four 27ERs. Fox3 spam shines the brightest in the furball clusterfuck. If you ever survive to resupply, the surviving enemy players will largely be the competent ones that know how to notch radar missiles. The 27ER is the hardest missile to notch, so they're the most reliable at shooting down competent opponents.>>563427861>Stealth launching within visual rangeStealth launching is a BVR trick, and the 27SM's radar's terrible scan rate combined with its garbage scan pattern means that your TWS tracks are often woefully out of date by many seconds. It is not uncommon to try and fail to lock a radar track since that was where the opponent was 4 seconds ago instead of where he is now. It's possible to make it work but it's an exercise in frustration.Once you have a good radar like the 30's, it is far more realistic to climb to altitude and yeet a 27ER into space, let it loft towards approximately the right location with IOG, and then orbital strike some multipather by locking him up and guiding n the top down attack in the final phase of its flight. But a newfag who's struggling to get his footing should be focusing more on fundamentals than trying to learn trick shots or juggling a bunch of different missile types.
