Black out three compartments that are not the very bow of stern of the ship. They do not have to be consecutive. Bismarck should be good at that since it got a reload so fast it broke the ships hoists irl

>>529176031
Doesn’t really matter, dispersion means you don’t have fine enough control outside point blank. It seems to do more damage when hitting less armored parts of the ship but I can’t really say for sure if that’s true. AP seems to do more damage to hull health than HE. Most important thing is to make sure you’re hitting a different section after you black one out. A lot of people waste too much time fishing for magazine kills they aren’t getting and end up losing fights they could win.

>>529175137
Thanks anon, I guess it's pretty much how I expected, so the way to go is just plinking at occupied targets while being annoying and out of the way to shoot at.
Doesn't sound like 8.3 material, especially considering the lack of anything resembling a lineup, and more like a different take on the Mutsu.
With any luck the statistics))) will get it lowered in br.

>>529177395
It’s a pretty rough grind to get there unfortunately. Jamming every end line battleship into one update really put the US at a disadvantage by skipping the other fast battleship classes. Having to fight Gneisenau, Amagi, Rodney, Mutsu, Vanguard and Bismarck most matches with US 7.7 isn’t a great time. Don’t take any HE shells and only bring ~1/3rd ammo for main guns. It makes the constant shell detonations less punishing. On Iowa it also empties most shell rooms and only leaves the lowest magazine space full. Does a lot for your survivability though you can still get overwhelmed and die to breaches fairly easily.

>>529177357
because warthunder is a realistic game

>>529177745
I doubt it. Bismarck doesn’t compare to the 8.7s but is better compared to the rest of the 8.3s. It’s a way better ship than Roma and the reload I think puts it above Richelieu. Every ship suffers massive damage to basically every barbette hit and the hull meta favors dpm over everything currently so I don’t see it going down since the dpm is very good. I’ve seen it top board fairly consistently in most 8.3 matches I’ve had, while still pulling its weight at 8.7. It isn’t a bad ship it just isn’t what Scharnhorst was for the last three years.

>>529179029
you're in, kiddo

>>529179029

>>529178115
I'll keep that in mind. Unfortunately I only have the Alaska crewed (and aced, from back in the day), but playing that currently feels like pulling teeth. I'm considering switching over to the Tennessee

>>529179108
not the squadron, the squad you nigger

>>529179029
how are they supposed to know who you are

did they make magic 1s retarded now

>>529179202
I did the grind in Tennessee first day of the update since I have a tali on her, but I wouldn’t recommend it. 7.7 felt like a blackhole for 8.7, and the ships there will pick you out as an easy target to 1-2 salvo. Tennessee basically cant penetrate the 8.7s reliably at the new combat ranges, especially if they angle. The 1.5rpm aced also means you struggle to get kills and will often have ones that should be yours stolen, guns are just too anemic in the current top tier meta. Alaska isn’t great to play either but the grass isn’t greener at 7.7.

>>529179860
they broke all of the missiles last update, no?

They fucking broke the MK-108 again.

>>529179953
>Alaska isn’t great to play either but the grass isn’t greener at 7.7.
aw shucks, I was hoping it would be better. The Alaska dies easily too, and it honestly doesn't feel like my guns are doing shit. In the last couple matches I resorted to hitting bots in cruisers since at least I could do some damage to them.

need to kill strike aircraft for daily needful but want to keep grinding for F-2 at 13.7 and there's no fucking strike aircraft here

>>529179860
>>529180359

>>529180467
USN has been behind the top tier addition curve since they added Mutsu, and you really feel that now. This update should’ve really been two, with the first having everything up to 8.3, but also including a KGV and either a North Carolina or SoDak, with the second having the 8.7s. With how painful they made the grind I’m surprised they restrained themselves to only two premium battleships, they could’ve made a lot more money throwing in say Washington, Duke of York, and a refit Nagato

Any Maus enjoyers here? What round do you use for the main gun? Both rounds look good

>>529182251
I use the full size aphe for that sweet 500grams of tnt

>>529180867
i dont honestly know why it gets such a poor loadout compared to the tech tree one
it just has a way worse TGP for no reason
the BR is too high in ground battles for no reason (should be 12.0)
and it gets terrible ground ordnance that you cant even use with your worthless TGP

im not sure why an 80 dollar jet gets shafted like that, dont gaijin wanna sell this thing?

is there a tech tree sale coming soon?

>This update should’ve really been two, with the first having everything up to 8.3, but also including a KGV and either a North Carolina or SoDak, with the second having the 8.7s
I don't get at all why they didn't do that. No one's going to be interested in those now (except maybe the KGV) because they'll get demolished by top tier, and now they're out of additions that were actually built.

I don’t get it either, though I think the SoDaks would be very strong at 8.3. The Iowa armor scheme is very strong and basically identical, they only really lose out on speed and gun velocity.

>>529182859
just not enough to one shot T-44's through the turret 8/10 times
yes, specifically the T-44, everything else will eat shit but T-44s will lose 1-2 slaves and get breached

IIRC the 16”/45 would lose ~100mm+ pen at all ranges vs the 16”/50, which isn’t insignificant but would still make a good gun. I’m also hoping we get 1945 Missouri here soon since that’s a fair upgrade over Iowa, I’m kinda thinking it could be the next event ship since it lines up with the 80th anniversary of the surrender

it's somewhat improved, but FSR 3 isn't enough of an improvement over shitass TAA for me to justify going from 60% gpu load at 75fps with ~maxed settings to 100% gpu load at 72-75fps on the same settings

Is there any external resource tracking the acceptance/rejection reasons for ongoing issues with vehicles based on citation type or anything like that?

I have no actual way of evaluating the validity of some sources over others personally, and it seems like there's enough dispute between the developers and community (who are to their own fault, autistic vehicle fanboys probably) that i'd like to see if there is any validity to the tears

>>529185738
A dramatically shittier experience than the T-34-85.

My god this game is actually unplayable right now and there is still 150k people on. Never have I been more assured this game is filled with 90% bots. Guns don't work. Missiles don't work. If you touch a tree you go flying. People are glitching off the map or into rocks. Yah, sure... 150k """""people""""" on.

They reject sources straight from the manufacturer because they THINK it's a marketing lie (unless it's russian, in that case state propaganda is actually a trvke and valid) and the next day approve a nerf to the Fw 190 because a russian thinks it's overperforming.
They literally released a devblog where they said the Stinger can't be that good because the Igla is a Stinger copy and it's ass
There are bug reports STILL not fixed after 3 years, none of which would require anything more than changing an int value (for gunner sight zoom)

most bombers didn't even have bomb sights in real life
it's primarily a game mechanic that's given to all bomber designated planes, and only on certain attackers

given that the p61 was designed solely to intercept bombers, it wouldn't make sense for it to have a bomb sight even if it could carry bombs, and especially with all the other incredibly expensive features that were already given to it, but i don't personally know if it had one

I have to say, I'm slightly bothered by the new update.
Also, is 4chan shitting the bed for anyone else, extremely slow?

It's difficult for me to evaluate the claims some people make without case by case examples.

I'm reminded of how certain strikers with just a forward telescopic bombsight, a floor window and/or a chalked in calculator on the nose- respectively the D4Y and by memory the IL-2s at some point previous to now, they've nixed it at some point I'm not Mandelaing- get or previously got full bombsights on that basis, but aircraft with early pseudo-CCRP dive bombing gunsights like anything kraut that ever mounted a Sturmvisier and probably some latewar muttshit do not nor do they get the arkaden projected 2D bomb ring extending from this exact functionality

unrelatedly is the site shitting its pants or what

>this is what a btr looks like in a modern game
lmao

Everytime i boot up the divegrass we are being clowned

>>529189909
start your own general, btfo

not gonna sugarcoat it, the new spaa for germany is kinda ass

better than the old bus only when shooting past VT1 range
intercepts dont work most of the time
radar information is ass and indicators buggy
bino view jumps arround when entering/exiting
radar is fat as fuck and visible from almost anywhere
you also cant do shit against low strafe runs

give it a week more and cas is back in its pre-levi numbers

>>529188949
Maybe that could help, but don't you get murdered through the belt anyways at the ranges in game?

>>529189637
the game has a feature where it despawns vehicles that you "shouldn't" see, such as if they're behind a hill or in smoke
it makes sense in GRB even if it's shit, but I can't imagine why they'd have it enabled for ship battles which I assume is the case here

So this is the power of the XM800... I kneel, I'm sorry I've put off playing it for so long...

>>529189087
>0-3
it's over

>>529189637
your crew skill was lacking, I presume.
>>529190158
that was introduced to stop cheaters, very early on.

>>529190510
all because ka52 cant handle new spaa

Bombs that follow the laws of physics instead of instantly halting on the first atom of ground they touch when?

get bullied repeatedly until they force me to bring out the falcon and regret it.
>>529190413
it's almost as good as the falcon it seems

>>529190158
I know, and I assume it's the same shit going on in ship battles as well. It's the first time this has happened in ship battles though, and it was fucking infuriating. Don't think it is as bad as having a tank 30 meters in front of me that's invisible until it fires and kills me, though. That's happened maybe half a dozen times now over the years.

>>529190097
Not really. The belt flat on shrugs off most guns in game before this update. If you angle, which you should always be doing, it holds up pretty well against anything in game. If you bring 1/3rd ammo you will only ever die to unsinkability, but that happens to everything because hulls are paper across the board now. I’d say the only reason could be a small upgrade is because a well played Iowa is already just that tough

>>529192295
>0-3

>>529192295
Huh, that sounds pretty neat. Don't think I've ever played a ship that doesn't get shot out under my ass within half a dozen salvo if the opponent aims well.

>>529193329
It’s pretty great. Played right Iowa seems to clown on anything that isn’t a well played Soyuz, which not many people seem to be playing currently. Yamato is probably the easiest one salvo in game right now, kinda tragic. The stock HE is really rough but once you get AP it’s off to the races. I’m running a 7 k/d right now and climbing as I get more mods, and it’d be 10 if it weren’t for a Soyuz killing me twice in one game while I only had HE. If hulls were less fragile I’d say you could probably pull a 15 player right, but as it stands hulls becoming health bars is the limiting factor.

so i saw the BR cc youtuber say missiles are still broken is it true

damn, these forum posters take no prisoners

>>529196586

>>529175073
Yeah. It's reliable enough of tactic to aim for the cupola on T95s/28s cause even solid shot will do a straight 90 degree turn downwards into the crew compartment and either one shot you or disable you long enough for them to do a follow up shot and finish you off. Despite the cupola being well sloped and decently armored for what it is, pretty much every shot to it will go through it meanwhile some things with larger and obvious looking weakpoints for cupolas conveniently don't have this problem yet the low profile US ones do.

really makes you think

Just one more reason to drop that literal piece of shit as soon as possible.

Every single bong SPAA is complete garbage up to the Skink holy shit, why is shit like the Bosvark 5.3 while the Wirbelwind is 3.7?

Confirmed shitter. The bosvark is the best anglo SPAA until the falcon for both anti air and light anti tank work

>>529212820
they are literally not
every single person that plays the game and has any amount of observational skill will tell you how much better the ystervark/bosvarks perform compared to other AA

‘Member Ystervark in the Mad Max event?

>>529212898
It's only viable if your team is getting pushed back and/or have a desperate need for heavy armor with a big enough gun to deal with other heavy armor, but you have to fully commit to every play you do with how bad the mobility is cause your only option is to keep pushing forward because you cannot turn and run away if you run into problems. You can have good games in them sometimes but it's so situational to bring in and you cannot guarantee that the enemies aren't retarded enough to not know it's obvious weakpoint plus the amount of heatslingers that completely negate the things only advantage. It sucks that the T95 is the only way to use the US 105mm on a tech tree vehicle because so many people are missing out on how good that gun is when it's on so much better platforms like the T29 or the M6 Mutant.

>>529212898
You should spawn the tutel when you're being spawn camped, that's the best way to use it

seething chink

Haven't played in a long while is the Ju-288 still able to print SL like before? I took it out in a match with the new napalm bombs and took out 4 bases and won in an around 15 min game and only got like 32k SL. If my memory serves correct it should've been like 3-4x that amount at least. Am I doing something wrong? If they nerfed it into the ground is there any other semi-afk way to make SL like before?

>>529216116
God I wish I was that orange goo

>>529216116
>is there any other semi-afk way to make SL like before?

maybe ships idk

>>529216190
yeah, I don't know about that one
have you seen EoE?

>>529215163
still no answer
anons, do we know which one of these numbers is the bigger number? we need to know

You know I thought the Wirbelwind velocity was a lot lower than what it actually is, was I thinking of the Ostwind I or did it get buffed at some point?

>>529215163
Yeah the number of air and ground kills is way bigger than the bosvark

>>529168401
I don't even consider myself that good of a player. I didn't realize german win rates were so fucked up. Is the average war thunder player just brain damaged?

>>529216274
Yeah. Let me become that stuff.

>>529217494
The average war thunder player is braindamaged yes, but the nig 3 (with Germany on top in their ww2 era) is like a comatose level of brain damage.

So the nip M19 needs to go up in BR then right since it's so much better than the clap one? Clearing they're not identical tanks since the KD and win rate is so drastic?!

>>529217494
my friend who has a sub 1.0 kill/death in his panthers and tigers has a 15% to 20% higher win rate than me on said tanks
my lowest KD out of all the tigers and panthers is the F which is at 2.77
match making and win loss doesn't make sense and is overall a fucking mystery

>>529217896
in general, japan has exaggerated stats for everything just due to who plays japan (and who they fight against)
but if we're comparing skill, then let's factor in that the vast majority of US/UK/USSR CASniggers only know how to drop bombs and die and do so very often, whereas germany/italy hardly has any options comparable and rarely use CAS, so we can gather that it takes less skill to shoot down Allied planes, and more skill to take out Axis, which would mean that german AA performs much worse and US/UK AA is way better

>>529218280
How often are you actually playing the points and helping your team versus holding a safe angle near the spawn? How high is your average kills per life? It's not that mysterious.

>>529217896
46% winrate is still bad

>>529217896
stop being racist to the muttniggers goyjin

Defend this.

>>529220424
tank game

>>529219706
Well in the situation you're stuck having to use an M19/M42 it usually means you're already fucked and the thing is the only thing left you can spawn.

did they fix proxy fuses yet or is it still fucked

>>529220467
And having a 46% win rate isn't even that bad relatively and is far better when you put it in that perspective.

>>529220424
wow gaijin has really fucked HE for aircraft across the board then.

>>529220460
Ok, defend this!

>>529221019
you weren't in a tank

>my ARB team is usually all drooling retards (including me)
>activate booster
>suddenly my team is full of elite gamers who never die and take all the kills
I'd bet all my money that this is by design

>>529220813
Not just aircraft either. SPAA cannons with HE do no damage to planes and plane cannons with HE do no damage to tanks. It's borderline unplayable and yet everyone here is acting like nothing is going on. Makes me wonder if people here play the game...

>>529221327
I play naval and haven’t seen a plane spawn since update day, even with the aa ai nerfs

>>529221327
People here don't play this game it's pretty obvious. Go to lereddit where i'm ripping all the clips from and you'll see how unplayable the game is. 40mm cannons doing no damage to planes is fucked.

>>529221327
gepard and he-vt on the bagelpanzer have been working on my machine

>>529221019
It's hit or miss with the windmill model in game cause last I knew they're able to be shot through and they could've been lucky and had you scouted, though knowing you're at the BR where chinks and other faggots obviously cheat due to how much the game gives players handholding with rail guns with high velocities paired with other things makes it prime for cheat users to get away with their bullshit

lol

I fucking hate the keybind hud that shows up in air RB now. I don't need the unnecessary clutter for keybinds that I've had set and memorized for the past 15 years.

Need a new tree to grind.
Eyeing the Type 10 and TKX seems like everyone enjoys them and would be fun to sling darts every 4 seconds.

>>529221327
How fucked is their spaghetti code that them adding new SPAA somehow completely fucks not only missiles but HE shells too lmao?

>>529227272
incompetence, or deliberate malice?

base AA is so lame, C-RAMs or any other type of CIWS would be much cooler to face in ARB in general.
Could REALLY do without the VEAK 40 proxy fuse where you have no choice but to accept that the invisible rounds were totally hitting you )))
and the base SAM could be whatever multi-radar assembly bullshit they had in the SEAD test so we can actually intercept them and end the match........
this game could be so much cooler and interesting and more immersive but they're making too much money to not follow their current model

>>529227272
>How fucked is their spaghetti code
About this fucked I would say.

>>529227505
>>529227272
what i want to know is how these kinds of bugs can happen and not a single person notices until it's officially released

>>529227731
There is no one to notice. They don't have a QA team. They don't actually put the changes in the dev server for the players to test. They just squeeze it out onto live because fuck it, the retarded pigs will still waddle to the trough to gorge on $100 premium packs anyways.

>>529227731
To gaijin this is not a game to be played but a fancy screen for inputting credit card details, that is the only part that needs to function.

>>529227731
proper developer QA testing is historically viewed by Gaijin as gaming on the job and therefore verboten

>>529222834
OH I'm fucking blind.

>>529227532
and make short fields closer to the frontline but also give them a AAB health bar and some shorad like a third of the main base's range
It's not even hard I came up with that by just riffing just now im not even thinking hard about it like that

the game used to look so good back in the day according to all my old screenshots
did they just remove certain graphics settings at some point? because i never recall turning off whatever causes all this shine and i didn't see it in the options when i checked earlier today

>>529228251
rank 1-2: autocannon flak and fifty cals
rank 3/4: cannon flak and 20mm

how do you do it bros, this one of those landings i can't figure out
this exact damage has only happened to me twice now, and youtube videos on the same subject show more intact tails

ifw?

>>529229358
>mysterious forces point it downward
were you holding the exact same speed the entire time or were you slowing down when this happened?

>>529227696
Imagine how busted it would be if you could reliably hit that tree and get behind the enemy spawn in the first 30 seconds. Shit would be hilarious

>>529229562
i was slowing down as i approached the airfield, with flaps/gear/airbrakes not extended yet

>>529229697
then that's why
speed is vital to keeping a damaged aircraft in the air, ESPECIALLY jets
once you slow down enough, you drastically lose control, like how you lose control in a stall but worse since you don't have the aerodynamics the plane was designed to have anymore

>>529229938
yeah i think there wasn't enough air passing over the surfaces for the controls to work near the end
the gear snaps at ~>350kmh so i might go for a belly landing next time
thanks anon

>>529229636
Look where that vehicle is relative to the rest of his team. He got over there the same way he got back. You can literally do what you're saying. Good luck controlling it though.

>>529230124
>wasn't enough air passing over the surfaces for the controls to work
essentially

>might go for a belly landing
you should always be doing this anyway
belly landing is just way faster and more reliable than a normal landing, except niche cases where you need to quickly take back off or have some weird pregnant plane that will flip over

>>529221798

Don't separate too far from your team, you just want to be slightly off their side like 10km. Keep your speed up. Make sure you take the chaff pod on your loadout and put the rest in flares you get like 200 of each.

Speaking of the Mirag F1C, why are the chaff pods limited to one wing?

>>529252473
there is zero chance any russian heli specifically is viable more than 10% of the time after this update.
Russia has the 6th shittiest top tier SPAA in terms of actual effectiveness.
with almost literally every other nation you can intercept missiles that might otherwise take out friendly helis.

Why can't you unload a round and change rounds without firing into the ground? It's not as if it's not possible to remove an unfired round from the breech and swap to a different shell type.

>>529252994
because in real life it's at least 6-10x faster to just shoot into the ground and load a new round than it is to unload a round.
It's also more dangerous to unload rounds as you're handling an explosive more than you should have to in an area dedicated to the crew.
Real tank crews train to just fire the round into the ground to reload a different shell

>>529252994
It IS impossible in a lot of WW2 tanks and still considered dangerous to do in some modern ones. Rather than do additional research into what can and can't unload its guns, Gaijin just gave everything a blanket ban on it.

>>529253105
I misspoke. real tank crews don't train to shoot into the ground, they train to just shoot the round off in any direction that is safe.

>>529252912
Russia literally has the Pantsir, you have no idea what you're talking about

>>529249594
Yeah, but that's consistently dying without getting a kill

>>529253320
The pantsir is not better than any of the shit gaijin just added. YOU have no idea what you're talking about.

>>529253889
I main russia, I have top tier ground forces in literally every nation except britain.
If anything I am an SPAA main, they are my favorite vehicles. The Pantsir is a great vehicle, but it's AA capabilities are nowhere near as good as the shit gaijin just added.

>>main

>>529253978
>>has fuckall ability to lead targets on its own
Isn't that fixed by the new radar screen, using which unfucks SACLOS guidance and makes them actually pull their reported Gs and hit maneuvering targets?

>>529254085
don't kid yourself, only the SLM is superior to your pantsir
everything else is strictly worse, or will you tell me in honesty that yoour pantsir is worse than the eldhe98 or tansam kai?

i love RNG deciding if my shots will land where my crosshair is pointing

new german tank

>>529254214
it helps, yes. It is genuinely much shittier than all the newer missiles at shooting real players flying fast and/or maneuvering.
If all you are ever shooting is people flying head-on and being retarded at lower speeds the pantsir will do fine.
Compare that to the CLAWS and the CLAWS is getting the tougher kill 10 times out of 10.
>>529254236
what metric are you using for worse? the two vehicles you just listed will be worse against ground vehicles than the pantsir, so i guess you're correct. Both of them are going to fare much better through automated firing at fast movers than the pantsir, I guarantee it.

>>529253390
>>529254236
you have no idea what you are talking about
the pantsir is still the best by a big margin on virtue of multi tracking, intercept and range while also being on the kh)))))) side of the battle

>>529254726
where the fuck are you seeing any of those missiles having a 5km effective range lol
the tansam has a lock and launch range of 14km+ and the eld has 9km in all aspect.
sounds like you have a fucking skill issue.
>>529254789
as I said above, skill issue.
works on my pc.

>>529254689
iris has the ability to kill planes behind cover
and you can hide it behind buildings because vertical launch
and it's not saclos so you don't have to babysit the missile
missile doesn't give out RWR
it is superior, it's only weakness is close range attacks.

vehicles for this feel?

why does ADAD fail to find/track targets just because of some clouds in the distance behind the target?

>>529254930

>the tansam has a lock and launch range of 14km+ and the eld has 9km in all aspect.

You idiot, just because statcard says X doesn't mean it's true
A 14km launch range doesn't mean shit when the missile itself will literally not hit anything, BECAUSE IT'S THE EXACT SAME MISSILE AS THE 81C WITH A ARH SEEKER
The IR 81c literally cannot hit a maneuvring target at 6km range, same thing for the new "12.0" spaa. Let's not forget that it will ping RWR so anyone with a brain will duck for cover making any missile launch near impossible to connect

the truth is that unless youre a huge spike/pars faggot you cant play helicopters at top tier anymore. and I dunno who enjoys that gameplay. on the russian side the meta has shifted a little, some people now prefer the mi-28nm because it counters iris-t a little, however that is a bandaid fix and only like 2 helicopters in this game are like that

you know those little health bar thingies that show how strong your hull still is?
if three (excluding the bow and stern) are black you start sinking
now that's nothing new but they turned down the HP of the compartments by about four trillion percent so you can just batter the strongest ships with puny HE shells for a while and they're going down
which is basically what people expected would happen when they introduced the mechanic, but they waited a patch (or two?) before reducing the TTK through this mechanic

These are infantry games with light combined arms (well, two thirds of it, the air component is entirely missing) elements, barely anything in common with War Thunder.
>Call To Arms: Panzer Elite
That's just WT but without combined arms, its main selling point. Mudsuckers will cry and piss and shidd over CAS but at the end of the day, the presence of tangible air assets is why WT is and Battlefield was so much more popular than those types of games because it adds a whole new dimension to the fight.

Tank-to-tank combat is extremely rare in modern warfare so I can see why people get mad at CAS for stealing the show. It's good that Gaijin is adding modern SAMs to counter them though.

>>529265381

KEK, He's like a bad luck charm for them at this point.

oh no, not again fellow LowIQ troonettes...

Buy an ad.

>>529277193
how so?

because of the slots or the crew level?

>>529276737
I can't believe I'm about to type this, but based chink.

>>529276595
>the only interesting thing about them is they all were alies of nazi germany in ww2
Literally the majority of Europe leaned towards alliance with Nazi Germany. Even Russia wasn't without its share of Vlasovs. The fact that Finland, Sweden, Switzerland, etc. quite successfully leveraged their diplomacy with both the Axis and the Allies just shows that they had high-IQ leadership.

>>529277719
Sure, on top of the 4 talismans he bought for the vehicles.

>>529276182
It's the boost from knowing you're in the better squadron and not in that other tranny one with a *pukes* d-d-discord...

>>529276595

so... white countries

never forget wartg is literally ran by a tranny for trannies

>>529278605
The only trannies to frequent /wtg/ are all WARTG members.

>>529278551
>no u
nigga you started seething uncontrollably because of some shitty flags on a cv90

seriously don't get why every videogame panders to chinese bugmen, just quarantine them to their own servers

>>529278883
money

>>529279017
do you really lose any money by making them only play with themselves
tired of these cheating fucks infesting every game

>>529279213
you lose lots
they don't like playing against eachother because everyone there cheats

>wartg
>requires you to join trannycord and send a picture of you taking estrogen to join the squadron
>members spend 24/7 spamming /wtg/ calling LowiqGODS the trannies
Holy mental illness

>schizophrenic fantasies out of thin air
Is this a side effect of being a lowiq tranny?

>>529276737
>This Plane Is Fine
No, this artificially GIGAgimped piece of shit is ANYTHING but fine, the F/A-18A is miles better than it at everything at a LOWER BR, and so is the Bison (the 29's FM is so awful none of the dogfight matchups change if you swap it for a barely worse 21 FM, except the 21 gets actually good missiles on all of its pylons).

>>529279524
LowIQ has been the tranny squadron since the beginning of time, why are you trying to rewrite the history and reality?

>>529279487
great firewall when

ussr is the gayest tree in the game

>>529278883
World of Tanks actually quarantined Chinese people in Chinese servers but I think Gaijin couldn't get a license with any Chinese internet providers.

>>529279906
...is what everyone would say if sweden wasn't in the game.

>>529278332
4x 3k talismans
4,5k for the crew slots
2k for the ace crew
no idea what the crew levels cost but it doesnt seem that bad

>>529279612
mig29 is shite irl which is why everyone that could dumped it, just give up at this point

>>529279610
>>529279874
>estrogen posts

>>529280131
akshually chud it was great which is why it [checks notes] got shot down by the hundreds

>>529279874
But I am not a tranny.

>>529280131
No, it's shite because gayjin made it so for whatever reason.

why on earth would do this to yourself
do you really spend like fourty godamn minutes sitting in a tub on fields of poland sucking down every AGM-65 the adversary deigns to point at you?
this is an airplane game anon

>>529280757
based dogechad shitting on defaggot playing like a FAGGOT

>muh nig29
get fucked, the saab 105 has it worse and for a much longer time

I like WARTG, but we need to do better, i forgot the last time we got 20k.

no one cares about some literal who swigger trannyier, the mig29 is way more iconic and has an actual following

>>529280757

>>529281716
leave the tranny squadron and come to lowiq, 20k is the norm here.

I like how WARTG became LowIQ's boogeyman, As if they're they only ones capable of hating them.

>no one cares about some literal who rusnigger trannyjet, the saab 105 is way more iconic and has an actual following

...and other swigger delusions no one has ever said

>>529281831
I still don't understand why people think it's the squadron members doing the reporting. I shit talk in game all the time, I'm 99% sure every one of my bans came from randoms reporting me

Is basedvetski soyuz as op as reddit claims?

the glorious nig 29, a plane that participated in the battle of the middle of bumfuck nowheristan and shot down the awesome amount of zero (0) planes
ayy lmao gtfo with your noname plane

trvkvlar trvke

you mean the time when it assraped fag-16s in the 90s in mock combat? or every time it appeared in countless mainstream games?

>mock combat
KEKaroo

>mock combat

>mock combat
>video games

none of its other engagements were indicative of its actual capabilities that would matter for the purposes of this game

>mock combat
way to out yourself as an idiot

>mock combat
>videogames
this guy is actually retarded

>xe doesn't know the story of how aim9x, irist and asraam came to be

>it's good because it appears in videogames

The R-73 is just an AIM-95 copy

said no one ever
the bug reports describe in detail why its good, it appearing in video games is merely the reason said bug reports deserve attention and action

>>529278214
>Even Russia wasn't without its share of Vlasovs.
Vlasov and all his soldiers were executed and even people who hate Soviet government don't like them. So i don't understand your point even is
>The fact that Finland, Sweden, Switzerland, etc. quite successfully leveraged their diplomacy with both the Axis and the Allies just shows that they had high-IQ leadership.
Ummmm.....no. They were dick riding hitler untill it was clear he was losing, then they became "neutral" or switched sides in case of Finland, Romania and Bulgaria. "high-IQ leadership" more like gambler trying to switch bet

>>529270073
Why are rustroons like this?

no armor is best armor
first hit took out the radar so i was just cruising with eurobeat

the us won the war all by itself

>>529283997

russia did it!

also inpenetrable american neck
this shot did 0 damage to the breech and crew

>>529284150

>>529283523
My point is that there were possibly over a million Vlasovs
>It is estimated that between 600,000 and 1.4 million Soviet citizens, including Russians, fought for Germany during World War II
It's extremely ironic to bring up Nazi collaboration and blame it entirely on the butthurt belt

why are war thunderers all addicted to drawings of underage women?

>>529282179
i have yet to see one
then again I've only played 7.7 since the patch dropped but on paper it looks like it should be retarded
gigakrok shells, iirc the thickest belt and deck armor in game, module layout that only make sense if you designed a ship for a video game
but as i said, the MM has steered me well clear of it up until now
