Am I missing something here? Aside from the 4.7 one being impossible to get, isn't it just way better since it's an entire BR lower? The defensive armament hardly matters in GRB, I guess having shittier bombs does suck but being 4.7 instead of 5.7 and having a significantly lower SP cost seems like a huge advantage?

Im getting absolutely assraped in this thing, 8/11 matches im in 11.3, games im not in its just hordes and hordes of j7d. All i get is 2 7e stock.
I have some aim skill issue, but i have no clue how to play this to get kills with the guns anyways.

>>529492632this also happens to me and it is because I am permanently stuck in uptiers I will be staying at 12.0 once I unlock it
I will never change factions either
>>529492632I just got done playing 10.0 and nearly every match is a downtier. 10.3 is fucked because mig21/tornado etc. premiums.

>>529493249Even if they werent bugged im getting raped, every match im either running away or fighting 1v3. IDK how to even approach fights in this thing, hopefully its better with the radar missiles if I ever unlock them.
>>529493324Every match im in I can't find anyone going slow, how do I even set that up is what im wondering. Im lucky to even find a 1v1, idk if im just unlucky and my teams getting raped or what.
>>529493528>>529493359You play the mirage 3 like the f104 except you can actually dogfight someone if there is no one else around, and if you don't finish the fight in 1 or 2 turns you die.
If you are just trying to fight the first person you see and ending up in a 2v1 while you are below 800kmph you are gonna die in any delta wing.
>>529494662So I just spend every match running away from people 90% of the time? That sounds fucking boring.

in fact since the update its felt easier, surprisingly enough
there is no better feeling than grinding for two days straight to unlock a single tank I will use one time and then stop playing the game for 4 months
>>529498654darts feel fine but anything below that level of pen feels like it does nothing

Anyone else who uses a shitton of r-60 think that the update is kinda funny since they were kinda inconsistent before and its only made them worse

fix the fucking missiles anton
>>529502274bombs and missiles sometimes have different means of being connected to the aircraft
bombs can be stacked together because they are simply released from the hardpoint while missiles are launched from the hardpoint
its just not practical to bundle together missiles

Has HEATFS always been unreliable at killing tank guns or something? A perfect hit from the side and nothing happens.
>>529502274I guess a better way of explaining it is bombs are clasped onto the plane and dropping a bomb just requires to clasp to release
missiles are on a rail and once activated will slide forward on the rail
itโs two different systems

>>529502903Yeah, the point of HEATFS is high pen but the downside is unreliable spalling/post pen damage.
>>529502505Don't think it's that easy. The netcode in general seems wonky after the update, so it's probably connected to that.
>>529503060shut the fuck up and fix your shit anton
Missiles work fine pidor, stop complaining.
>>529502903the only thing it has ever been reliable on for me was the m56
but its also easier to hit ammunition withen your heat jet and all the spall doesnt get absorbed by random internals like 5mm aluminium plate or driver

I'm struggling to see how anybody enjoys this, it's just the same shit from low to top tier except the planes spin faster.

>>529505395if the game doesnโt let you put missiles where those bombs are I donโt know why
Is there any reason not to listen to Ace Combat soundtracks while playing jets?
Like do I need any auditory queues that'll be drowned out? I should still be able to hear/see RWR and missiles launched at me.
>>529507805I listen to music during air all the time
>>529484049>>529490127we really need a ww2/cold war split
The zsu-23 really seems worse than the zsu-37 at actually killing jets. I don't know what it is, maybe the reduced range? like yeah if they get close enough the shilka will eat them up, but the radar in comparison seems dogshit.
why are the radar controls on the F-2 totally fucked

Would you rather play gun-only jets or missile buses?
Assume this is before the Leviathan's patch when missiles still worked
>>529510381I hate top tier air combat (despite having everything reserached for most nations), so that's an easy answer for me. Peak ARB was when top tier was Sabres and MiG-15bis/17.
>>529510617was his plane damaged? or just mental retardation
it genuinely makes me sick to my stomach that gaijin has continued to be rewarded for being completely fucking incompetent/outright malicious towards the players for so long

>>529510617-> Options -> Air Battle Settings -> Empty weapon container automatic jettison [yes]
>>529510381top tier being missile slinging is fine because you can just completely avoid it with lower tier jets anyway, even in 12.7 matches around half my kills were gun kills
hello missilesguns fixed?
>>529511032not even close
I love playing top tier without the ability to pen most of the tanks from the front lool
>>529511110>obviously cant do anything from that angle>keeps shooting anyway
>>529510936Thanks I didnt know that
I like missiles because they compensate for my lack of skill and ability to aim or dogfight
I just launch from across the map and get free kills

>>529511360I also like missiles because I suck at using guns. But I like the 9B-era the most. Because it isn't guaranteed kill when launched. It takes skill and good timing, but it's so satisfying.

6x mk84s is definitely enough but idk for 4x/2x, probably depends if you hit the ammo stores or not

>>529513081just tried it on my second trip that match:
first pass with 2x mk84s slightly off centerline took xir down to 26% crew, second pass with another 2x finished it off on the first impact
so somewhere around 2-4 will probably work, but since they use actually shi(t)p damage models it will depend where you actually hit instead of fixed explosive mass like the old ones
unfortunately there's no way to view the damage models in game like you can playable shi(t)ps, technically you CAN view them in the CDK but that has limited utility since it's janky as fuck and there's no weapon simulation

>>529514040anyway, here's the xrays for the forrestal and kuznetsov minus fuel tanks (there's other carriers with full damage models too but I haven't seen them ingame yet, maybe at lower BRs or something)
kuznetsov has a single main ammo storage centerline just behind the island + some aux storage at the back for CIWS shit or whatever, forrestal has 3 ammo stores evenly spaced down the center + aux storage at top rear
Gaijin got shittier servers to save costs didn't they. That's why there's hit reg issues with cannons, missiles, and rubberbanding everywhere.
just realized the aircraft carrier achievement only tracks the old generic carriers and not the new ones

>>529516010I'm planning to run it as a backup in either 10.3 or 10.7
I could run it in a 10.0 lineup with the Desert Warrior, Stormer AD, and then either the Rooikat 105 or Rooikat MTTD (or both) since their guns don't give a fuck about being uptiered 0.3/0.7 BR
The actual pure 10.0 lineup isn't huge but it's not that bad when you consider the Rooikats punch at 10.0, the shitty part is your good helis are 10.3 and 10.7

I've grinded a lot of the USSR tree with the Su-25K and the MiG-23ML when it was playable (now it's not)
If you want to grind the air tree, it's a bad pick. It could be useful on ground RB if you already have a lineup but the RP gains are unexistant. If you want to play RB to grind it... in the Su-39 you'll be just food for everyone, and you'll be totally better off by picking the 10.7 Su-25K.

Is the Viggen (50% off) any good if I want to paypig my way to 13.0?
>>529522735Unfortunately not, you get uptiered to hell every match against planes better than you in every way.
>>529522249Basically they nerfed its radar (you could change manually to MTI radar and use that) that enabled you to shoot the very good radar missle (R24-R) at people with the ground in their background from every altitude, and it was basically it's bread and butter. Now you cannot control the radar anymore and it automatically decides (based on you altitude) its mode, and most of the times is not obviously MTI. Also they EXTREMLY gimped its flight model, before if you controlled the wing-sweep and you put it at 100% you could even go head to head with a F-14A at least... now you cannot unturn even a fucking F-4S phantom, that is a fucking brick...that can take 3x your radar missles.
And the cannon sucks, it's the same 23mm water pistol with shit ballistic and low ammo count. It's just overall bad. What you could actually do with that is load up napalm and bomb bases i guess, but that gets boring real fast imho.

>>529523796top tier is a trap
top tier prems doubly so
you can't paypiggie your way into top tier arb, you're just there to be food for the entrenched playerbase that actually managed the grind

>>529524127I haven't heard good things about the American or German (Swiss?) Hornets and neither is on sale
I guess the F4S Phantom II is?
>>529527670I've played enough to experience most of what the game has to offer, and I can confidently say there's no such thing as a consistent "X nation bias." What does exist is a shifting meta โ battle ratings and vehicle performance vary across all nations, and these trends change every few updates.
Take jet-age gameplay or mid-tier naval for example: for a long time, the U.S. absolutely dominated those brackets. They were only recently overtaken by the Eurofighter trio. That doesnโt mean there was โU.S. biasโ before โ itโs just how the meta evolved.
Another example: I personally think the 3.7 Sherman is the best BR-for-BR tank in the game. Italy has two of them (one premium, one tech tree) at Rank III, while the U.S. version sits at Rank II โ meaning it can't be used for certain Battle Pass tasks or events. From some perspectives, that could easily look like "Italian bias."
Or consider when Japanโs F-2 was released โ it was the only plane in realistic battles with access to the new radar gunsight mechanic. The first implementation was basically just the arcade reticle in RB, and it was completely broken. Was that "Japan bias"?
Stuff like this happens all the time. But it's not favoritism โ itโs just how monetization and content rollouts work. The only real bias is toward players spending more money, and the more nations you play, the more likely you are to spend. Once youโve tried everything, you start to see through the illusion.
>>529528690>>529528724>>529528941those reminds me of the old MMORPG action bars. I TOTALLY dig those to be honest.
>>529526080That's not true, the Sabre can rate fight

>>529523082Its funny when it hits but mostly useless outside of killing zombers
The ATGMs on the Mig-21PFM are fun to use as sarhs
>>529529287I like the Hornets because I like my planes to have a lot of ordinance, they're still very good imo and have a decent battle rating, people probably don't like them because they don't have ARH missiles but you can still do perfectly well with the missiles you have. Get the Phantom then, it's the best grinder in the game. The only problem with it is that there are so many other premium Phantoms around. Do a quick youtube search of how to deal with the ARH missiles you'll face that the F-14 Tomcats have and you're all set, they're pretty easy to dodge with a little patience.
>>529529615>the Sabre can rate fightagainst what? vautours?
>>529529845>F-14 TomcatWon't they be on the same team (USA)?
>>529530265Everyone plays USA, so at those high tier basically 80% matches are USA vs USA with the other nations mixed in between.
>>529530265Because burger air is so popular sometimes you get America on both teams

That has got to be the worst anti cheat in the world. Either that or this game is dead as fuck and those hundreds of thousands of people that play aren't actually people.

>>529535767Bro do you really think the boogyeman exists?

I say that 5k accounts banned in a little less more than a month is basically... almost all of them

Also you're praising easy anti-cheat? The thing that is called 'easy to cheat' by the cheater community?
There's general shills and then there is next level shills like you who think a free to play slavic game where it's extreamly easy to buy an account or make a new one isn't infested with cheaters when every single other online game is.
war thunder is rampant with cheaters and hurtgen forest is the only proof you need

>>529538856We JUST had a Canadian vehicle sale like not even a month ago
What would they put on sale that wasn't literally available to you weeks ago?
Okay got my second wave of warbonds at the ready. What now?
>>529537316I know exactly how cheats work because I used to cheat heavily in games like CoD4, Crysis, PUBG, and Escape from Tarkov. I have seen both sides of it.
These days, anti-cheats do not ban you right away like they did in the past. Instead, they wait and stack up detections, then hit large groups all at once in ban waves. This way they catch more cheaters before the cheat developers can react and patch their software.
WT is a f2p game but it has real anti-cheat and active moderation. It is on the same level as games like Valorant or Apex Legends in terms of security. Of course cheaters exist. They always will in competitive F2P games. What matters is how consistently the developers fight back. Gaijin actually does that. They post ban reports regularly and they have been banning thousands every few weeks. That is proof they are not ignoring the problem.
If you really want to talk about cheater-infested games, look at Warzone, PUBG, or other F2P shooters with little to no account penalty and no real anti-cheat updates. That is where you see blatant aimbots every other match. War Thunder does not come close to that level.
Thinking every good player in War Thunder is cheating just means you have not fully learned the game yet. A lot of what looks like cheating is just good game sense, spotting mechanics, or experience. Once you understand how the game works under the hood, most of those suspicious moments make perfect sense.
Also go statwatch the banned account. MOST of them are lowlvls with a couple of matches onto their accounts, or stolen accounts abandoned 5 years ago that reappeared this *CURRENT MONTH* just to get banned.
tl;dr: no u
Why can't we have a good looking UI instead of niggerrigged html and css?

>They post ban reports regularly and they have been banning thousands every few weeksYah and the past one was 41 days ago and less than 5k have been banned.

Why don't they make a tank where the gun can be lifted above the turret so it can fire from a turret down position safely
then the gun is lowered back into the turret, reloaded, and you repeat
or maybe a thin narrow turret that is so heavily armored it's impenetrable (the surface to be armored is small, so it's not unfeasibly heavy) and then the gun is loaded via an autoloader
The gunner would sit in the hull and remotely fire the gun and it would be completely undeadable in a hull down position

WT hasn't resolved cheating, i'm just comparing it to games that have the about the same level of security, but we have stats for those, so we can assume that the % of people cheating is the same, since we have a lot of data from those games.
I'm NOT saying that there are not cheaters in war thunder, i'm saying that there are totally NOT in every other match and WAY less than you believe, and 5k bans in 41 days is basically MOST of them, at least those without any spoof hardware in their PC. That's the beauty (and the curse) of kernel-level anticheats (that are not infallible, but every update they do they'll catch ALL cheat software users)
This doesn't mean that tomorrow there won't be cheaters. There always will be. The only thing you can do is euthanize them before they kill a game and make them as a little percentage as possible compared to the CCU.

AAAM-4s somehow kinda suck thoughever, idk how anton fucked them up but it feels like they have worse performance at range than AIM-120s despite the way bigger motor

>>529551997on paper pretty much all the base stats looks like it should have better range performance (maybe the higher drag is wiping out motor gains? idk how how the fuck the drag shit works), but there's a bunch of differences in the guidance section and maybe something in there is making them r-worded

>>529552582>wing area is bigger>fin aoa is higher>less fin acceleration but 32/42 isnt that big of a difference for pull
>>529545935most ships have some sort of radar, but only a small number of them actually do anything useful like fast FCS or an air target lead indicator
(iirc neither are relevant to AB where everything is auto adjusted point click)
>>529553858Huh, it does, I didn't know that
why doesnt france get a rank vi premium jet?
>>529553853This, scouting should be removed as well
>>529553541marking air targets would be such a good feature
it's so hard to spot planes below you while flying, and the absolute moron spaagots usually fire at nothing at all, or nowhere near incoming planes, so you can't judge where enemy air is by that, only that maybe there is one
and some people lie about air alerts so usually i have to wait until i see tracers or contrails after they already killed friendlies before engaging

Night battles will fully return for infantry mode. Gaijin wouldn't dare disappoint their greatest customers.
>Not so favorable was the Chinese estimate of the American infantry. The pamphlet said that American soldiers when cut off from the rear
>. . . abandon all their heavy weapons, leaving them all over the place, and play opossum.... Their infantrymen are weak, afraid to die, and haven't the courage to attack or defend. They depend on their planes, tanks, and artillery. At the same time, they are afraid of our fire power. They will cringe when, if on the advance they hear firing. They are afraid to advance farther.... They specialize in day fighting. They are not familiar with night fighting or hand to hand combat.... If defeated, they have no orderly formation. Without the use of their mortars, they become completely lost. . . they become dazed and completely demoralized.... At Unsan they were surrounded for several days yet they did nothing. They are afraid when the rear is cut off. When transportation comes to a standstill, the infantry loses the will to fight.

man, pg87 feels like a breath of fresh air after the slow firing spaags, great turret traverse, great RoF, good zoom to help finding planes. The only issue is the pretty long reload time combined with mediocre mag size, but if you aren't spraying and praying it's more than enough to down planes
I just got the AAM-4 for the F-2, is it better than the usual AIM-120's?
>>529571628How are you playing jets... are guns and missles really fixed?

>>529595017purely because gaijn is russian and they have a hate boner towards germans
we have overtly offensive decals in game directed towards germans, history pages that always have a clear bias in the writing when describing battles with germany
their TOS/guidelines/etc say that "symbols used by groups associated with war crimes, radicalism/fascism/racism are not allowed" which would of course include virtually every single nations symbols in the game, especially for stuff like the rising sun like you mentioned, but the rule only applies to germany, and gaijin even offers a free set of decals to use of the FASCES used by FASCIST italy
i've tried to explain the issue with that to moderators before and they just refuse to respond and go silent
considering all that, we're kind of lucky that they even allow historical skins on wtlive with swastikas at all

>>529597450listen.
because it is personally beneficial to me I am going to explain why that happened. slowly. with a lot of reddit spacing.
the average top-tier war thunder grb match is won or lost in about two minutes.
the average bomb-glide time is about thirty seconds.
as an aspirational spaa-killing CAS pilot person you therefor have about sixty seconds after match start to earn ~700 spawn points and fifteen to thirty seconds after that to pickle your ordnance.
because that is the case you figure out where retarded SPAA cucks spawn and drop it all there and hope it kills them all.
if you would like that to not be the case and for SPAA to have some kind of legitimate role other than being food we will need maps that are not 1km x 1km and matches that are not spawncamped in two minutes.
>>529618698maybe slightly but it is also a total piece of shit artillery tractor with a tall profile pedestal mount 57mm krok'd onto it bearing a fragmentation-only gunshield that the crew often aren't even properly behind and won't do anything to block even rifle caliber machineguns out to ~600-700 meters and a hull that's hardly thicker.
consider instead the ASU-57, a postwar airborne tankette from 1951 that is superior in literally every metric to it except maybe in casemate-only horizontal traverse while shaving an inch of height off relative to the already famously tiny L3/33 tankette, and thus also being perhaps the most perfect crevice wedged passive scout box in the game as a result in addition to being a rapid fire high pen niggerblaster, with nothing but keen vision+audio RNG deciding if your very characteristic putput engine can be heard. It's 4.3.

A better turning plane should just rate fight or bleed speed.

>>529631138the only weaknesses that yaks have is that they can't dive and they have low ammo
however, if the player knows what they're doing, then they can overcome those pretty easily
all you can really do if you're alone is to hope you have at least 3k in altitude in order to dive faster than 650kmh, and hope that they follow you and rip their wings; of course you wont get the kill credit for that (come to think of it, that's probably a large part of why they removed maneuver kills)
and you also have to hope that once you dive you're within range of your airfield, because once you hit the deck, they WILL be able to catch up to you
the only real way to counter a yak is to team up against one at a time, but again if the player knows what they're doing, even that isn't a guarantee

>>529633089It's absurd. I have the J7D, over 200 battles and a 4 k/d on it. Yesterday i decided to spade the F5-E-FCU... in 10 matches i got teamkilled by fucking J7D 3 times and they are the only deaths i scored, and usually they didn't get a single fucking kill in all the other matches. When against those, based on my experience, i used to "fear" and be aware of those.... but man i was wrong... these chinks are LITERALLY retarded
