Huh weird how that works, shame 70% of the time you get flat maps
>>530351003I want to like the M103 but it just can't compete like the other 7.7 heavies can plus the US teams are atrocious past 7.0 for some reason despite having okayish equipment, and uptiers to 8.3 and are almost always losses. It could honestly go down to 7.3 and not be a pain in the ass to counter.

>>530353086you bear the burden of proof, neguinho

>muh new spaa will fix it!!

It never works because the majority of American teams are brain dead retards. Not to mention Germany and Russia (sometimes China, Sweden and France) are always on the same team in most matches, So I don't get why these mutt mains are so smug.
>>530354484Britpill me on the PGM
I'm just spitballing here, I don't actually have either plane unlocked yet
>>530354159i think i know the truth now
brazil monkies are just so historically insignificant that they have to make up for it by proclaiming to the world how great they are, but with nothing to actually back it up
>>530354932nice fanfic retard
>>530353171thanks for shitting up the thread chudley
>>530354932They fought some random wars in South America actually
Don't ask me which ones though I couldn't tell you
>>530354283Yes this is because i basically only play arcade nowadays. To be good in GAB you need to be a caffeinated adrenaline junkie and your only enemy is sensory overload when you find 5 niggers in front of you after a flank.
To be good in GRB you need to find a good position and lock down a sector until the CAS comes
>>530353430If we talk about gains/h
>Mission Score = GRB R1 Event vehicle (if not, handheld R3 vehicle) >CrewRP = GAB>GroundRP = GAB>AirRP = ARB >SL = Naval
>>530355092The empire of Brazil only decimated 60%+ of the Paraguayan male population that one time, nothing too crazy. Also Agentina sent all of it's black population to die in some wars which is why it's the most "white" country in SA. South america has some interesting history when it comes to war.
>this faggot just sat at the end of a road near his spawn
What the fuck causes such autism?
>>530355712the inevitable end result of kda weirdos.
>>530354804They used to be some of the best CAS munitions in the game until AGMs with IR guidance came around, fat and slow but the rocket motors they have that the statcard doesnโt tell you about give them some great standoff compared to glide bombs which you really need for CAS at those BRs
>>530355628I mean the 5+ kills without dying award for the boypussy needful
maybe I should just play shi(t)ps and plink at coastals
>>530355634>Agentina sent all of it's black population to die in some warswtf I love Messi now
>>530355634While I am sure it is impressive to you that Brazil absolutely dogwalked Paraguay, it is not going to be particularly noteworthy to the average American who can't even find those countries on a map
It also doesn't really impress me since my country has fought in much more significant and influential wars and "owning my neighbor" isn't really anything special to me
>>530354283Kind of. Theres still more to it but positioning is a huge part of why good players are able to consistently drop 8+ kill games. Specifically knowing all the power positions on each map. See picrel, each map has at least one position (usually multiple) like this where you can either hide+peek over a hill to shoot or hulldown tones of sight lines. 95% of players just hold W and go wherever feels right. Good players just rush to and abuse power positions.
>>530355915Oh that one.
>Arkaden italian 3.7sherman.Did it in a single match
>>530354283GRB is Counter Strike in slow motion
>>530355997That's just one thing that happened, it's almost like all of these countries have extensive history that has been unfolding through hundreds of years even before their independence. The retard was saying there was nothing, which just shows how ignorant you are. You'll find many people who don't give a fuck about Ukraine and Russia and their history in south america for example. It's all about perspective and knowing there are things you are privy to just because you were born in a certain country.
>>530355628Is Ground Arcade battles really just better? Do I really just need to be "arcade-pilled"?
>>530355092>random wars in South Americahistorically irrelevant
and that can be said about every other SA country, although some of them like paraguay, argentina, and chile at least hold some interesting footnotes
>>530356606>doesn't mention brazil which was the protagonist in anything those countries were ever involved in be it on diplomacy or just beating the shit out of themyou're so salty it's hilarious
>>530356775south america is historically irrelevant you zikanigger
>>530356385The RP/h *SHOULD* be about the same if you DON'T use any kind of planes in GRB and always finish your battles in ground vehicles.
In GAB you spawn planes as a killstreak and the RP you gain in those during the game gets put into the tank you are actually using.
Also in GAB a full lineup is just 3 vehicles, that also matters because the gap between you and a paypig is theoretically smaller.
This said, i also say this because of extensive personal testing:
with the 9.3 Chinkazoid premium lineup (Type 69 IIG, WMA301, Type62n545):
>GAB: Comfy 80.000RP/h>GRB (Only these 3 tanks, no planes): Sweaty 55kRP\hObviously personal preference and attitude matter, i'm an extremly good GAB player.
Talking about CrewRP, GAB is way better and honestly i don't know why.
>>530356775why would i be salty
my country has a rich and impactful history

>>530356119I just pushed here, put myself against the rocks and farmed
I probably could've kept farming but I shot one of the forward red Xs and alerted the orange guy who I knew was there, but I wasn't sure WHEN he would pop around the corner and unfortunately his reaction time beat mine by about 700ms
He actually took like four shots to kill me after I popped smoke but he had all the time in the world because not a single blue enemy decided to reinforce me on C
I imagine if I waited for him to push up I probably could've got him and then the oblivious moron sitting side on to me and holding a useless angle, but I wasn't patient enough to wait for him
I guess I probably need to watch a dozen videos on map positioning to learn all the good positions, I take hulldowns but sometimes they have a whole bunch of shitty bushes in the way that block my gunner's sight and I'm not sure if I should be trying to use my binoculars to line up my gun or just finding a less occluded position to snipe from
>>530356775The thing you're not understanding is that even if Brazil is far and away the most impressive and historically significant country in the region - it's fucking South America
NOBODY cares. North Americans look down on you with smug superiority (Yes, even the Mexicans), Europeans hardly even acknowledge you exist, you're basically a slightly more civilized Africa
>>530357806nobody in south america cares about europoor infighting or random amerimutt wars either, what's your point?
>>530358201it's almost like everybody in the world learns about the great wars real quick then their own region's history for the other 99% of the time in school.
>>530358201My point is a random European country, pick one, has the same GDP as your entire continent
America matters on a global scale. Europe, more specifically countries like Germany and France and the UK, matter on a global scale.
Brazil is completely irrelevant. They're a big fish in a small pond of South America, a Chihuahua yapping at the Mastiff that is America or the Dobermann that is Germany
>>530358475That is literally my point retard
>>530358201>the ant colony does not worry itself with the affairs of greater animals
>having only Sakeen in AAB lineup no longer puts you at 3.0 BR
The worst kind of antisemitism. The kind that affects me.
>>530358686>My point is a random European country, pick one, has the same GDP as your entire continentSรฃo Paulo alone has a bigger GDP than most europoor countries, you're so ignorant it's laughable.
>>530358817yeah europeans are pretty stupid aren't they

So if the Scherenfernrohr-14Z scissor periscope- those funny bunny ear optics you can see clearly mounted to open top TDs like the Dicker Max, Sturer Emil and Nashorn as well as to be raised periscopically from the cupola of closed TDs like the StuG series in particular as well as certain observation tank Panzer IVs retrofittedly using its cupola, with 10x zoom and the ability to go from totally vertical to totally horizontal to be used as a small coincidence rangefinder, shouldn't all of these vehicles objectively have a 10x zoom commander's view and an unlockable analog rangefinder module ala the flakbus, because they were not only mounted standard but for the most part visibly are equipped ingame?

>>530359965like look at this shit, it's mounted to the very early StuG or the Jagdtiger, used even without dedicated mounting on the stubby Panzer IV as well as both the Tiger and King Tiger. The only bad thing is getting Hetzer top MG overpressure syndrome but you either don't put the module on if you intend to get in the thick of it or gaijin bothers to add a keybinding for raising and lowering it or plug into an existing one.

Didn't it used to be possible to fight with only one crew member remaining? You could only fire your gun while stationary, and while reloading you wouldn't be able to move your tank in any way, but you wouldn't be out of the match with just one crew member left

this boypussy is BUSTED and BUCK BROKEN
If you were going to get one of the two american helos, AH-64A or RAH-66 which would it be? can't decide
>>530365952helpful tips of all helicopters:
-set speed to horizontal only, use the altitude indicator on the right side of your hud (open the tutorial for hud by pressing f1 or f2).
-reduce coll to 50% for maneuvers
-use hover mode at -99% to pin yourself down at the helipad for fast repair and rearm (you won't move around)
-terrain is your friend
-don't fly with 100% coll, fly with 94 or so
-focus optics is one of your best tools (press F, most helis have it)
-if youre in sim, press H as soon as you spawn to enable damping mode (easier to fly)
-use close helipad always
-mount extra MGs if you want to kill headon jets
-most spaa won't move away from spawn too much
-practice everything
>>530366418yes saar we are losing so hard in fact we will run out of ammo in 2 weeks
>>530365503>coincidence rangefinders are already in gameThe periscope binoculars in question are impossible to use as such in the configuration present in the german ground vehicles.
Read, nigger, read.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coincidence_rangefinder
>>530356385Yes. Unless you enjoy pixel hunting and getting killed by CASNIGGERS
>>530356385honestly with the current state of top tier grb, it's way more fun, matches being decided in the first 2 minutes of the game with who can get into their missileboat the fastest is aids
>>530366974are there gunners manning roof mgs?
just let us use it.
>>530366928>don't fly with 100% coll, fly with 94 or soWhat IS collective anyways, in relation to RPM?
>>530366689>>530366928thanks I figured out how to simply hover, holy shit this makes it too easy
>>530367785it stands for collective pitch. instead of controlling the rpm, you control the tilt (well, angle) of your rotors. the more they look up, the more lift you have, to an extent. obviously this makes setting coll to 0 in the case of fire totally pointless. I can't explain coll better than the whole internet though
>>530367858you will get shot down if you overuse it. professional and just good pilots only use the hover to slow down to reduce radar signature and perform the rearm trick I mentioned. all helicopters need some speed to fly, like sharks to breathe. they are not elevators exactly
>multiple games bombing without issues
>activate boosters
>enemy starts beelining for me
Really makes you think.
>>530367785wether your rotor is pulling up (angle of the blades)
50% should keep at the same height if you're horizontal, 0% gets you down and 100% lifts you up.
>>530367632You didn't ask for vehicles like the Jagdtiger getting their external machine guns mounted on, which would actually make sense and be a valid argument thougbeit.
>>530367785in simple terms collective pitch is the angle of attack of the propeller blades. more pitch = steeper angle of attack = more air being pushed. in reality it's a lot more complicated than that but that's most of what you need to know for now.
>>530368079>professional and just good pilots only use the hover to slow down to reduce radar signature and perform the rearm trick I mentioned.I stopped using hover mode a good while back and just have min/max collective on right and left click and an axis for making finer adjustments
>>530368269okay, why don't you use it to land faster and not dawdle on the ground afterwards?
>>530368079yeah i just got shot down kek, i gotta learn how to be fast in hiding and positioning for now
>>530368378>okay, why don't you use it to land faster and not dawdle on the ground afterwards?I can do my own brake-turns and get up and down much faster without using it.
>>530368420a lot of that is map knowledge. if you're spawning into shit-maps (poland ardennes etc) in an alouette you'll generally have a bad time. it's not impossible mind you, it's just not much fun.
>>530368420you always have to move. you always have to move. you always have to move. you always have to move. you always have to move. you always have to move. you always have to move.

>>530373925it pays the bills
>>530373884Yeah, KV-2 can't be one shot by anything it faces because of the two guys at the front
Most things can't even penetrate it from the front because of the weird ass angles from the front, and most tanks that can are going to be solid shot or APCR that only take out one crew per shot, with the exception of German Wunderkanone on the Pz IV and Dicker Max being the only things that can kill its entire gun crew reliably in one shot
>>530374608which is why the germ kv2 is the funniest thing ever.
>>530373884>I'm playing the wrong tech tree brosyes, Britain is suffering.
gets a little bit better with the SA stuff.
>>530374810The German KV-2 is unironically so much better than the Russian one JUST because it has a MG and the Russian one doesn't
That little MG means so much when there's a fence or little bush between you and the enemy that would otherwise eat your HE shell
>>530374608It's armor is not that good. A Stuart can frontally penetrate the turret, and 75mm APHE or larger will instantly cripple the the thing or catch the ammo if you shoot right under the gun mantlet. KV-2s are one of the easiest heavies to kill.

>Make a suggestion on the forum's gameplay suggestions category to give aircraft the ability to have alive crew replace dead crew in the pilot/gunner positions if there's crew to spare sorta like how tanks and ships do when important crew gets killed as there's multiple bombers that have extra "gunners" who don't actually do anything
>Post it but it has to be approved by the forum jannies
>Hasn't gotten approved in the past week (Probably never will), yet there's multiple pointless and downright retarded threads asking for things that either make the game worse or are so niche of a thing that nobody would use outside of a small amount of people.
I don't think I'm asking too much to get some kind of discussion going for something I think would benefit a decent amount of players that's been a problem since the game's inception. If tanks and ships can have crew that can seamlessly interchange positions with dead crew then why can't planes with enough crew do the same do the same?
>>530378743they ignored one of my posts too. jannies
>>530378193You don't know that, it could be
did a youtuber make a video on the AU-1 recently? It had been sitting on the marketplace around $140 for a couple months but it's gone up to $190 over the last 3 days
>>530378028The only vehicle I've been happy to receive in the last year or more was the T55E1 and that was one of those random roll old event vehicle gets. (Don't get me wrong it's probably in my top 5 favorite vehicles ever but it still doesn't count.)
>>530378743I don't think it's viable for a lot of planes
It might be for the handful of dual control trainer aircraft, I guess
For a lot of aircraft with just rear gunners it's probably not really possible for the rear gunner to get to the pilot's seat mid-flight
And yes, a gunner could theoretically leave his gun position to fly the plane but you're going to be flying in a straight line for several seconds while he does so and the odds you regain control of your damaged bomber and get it back into good level flight before getting picked off feels incredibly niche
Sure, I guess 1 in 100,000 games you get pilot sniped, your manual gunner control kills the guy attacking you, and then one of your gunners takes over piloting and you limp back to base successfully but for the most part you're going to get pilot sniped, the guy will line up for another run and by the time you're back in control and maneuvering he's tearing your wing off with his cannons

consider lowering your IQ by joining lowiq
>>530368223He's not me, I'm me, and more importantly he's right, almost every single MG in the game is manned by ghosts, the scissor binoculars are already physically mounted on all of the open tops which have more than enough room to splay the things out freehand if the mounts don't periscope high enough to do it manually, and in the case of the StuG or the Jagdtiger or any other closed tops with internal mounting points and hatches, it's raised with the crew fully inside the armor except that you open a little slit hatch integral to the main cupola hatch so it can pop out, or you pop the whole hatch to get it out far enough and your eyes behind the eyepieces to split it into the horizontal configuration.
also who cares about adding an 8mm ghost AA MG to the back deck of the Jagdtiger versus giving the long ranged high velocity gun vehicles better sniping ability using existing historical components they already have?
You know British tanks never do get ammo, do they? You have dogshit solid shit at low to mid tiers that does fuck all, and then you get the L28(A1) shot that is awful for its tier, L23(A1) shot that is AWFUL, L26 shot that is again not very good for the tier it sits at (10.7 with 470 @ 100m) and then you jump up to 11.7 with the L27A1 which is an absolutely fucking horrid shell that you're stuck with at 12.0
Imagine having a dart with 563 @ 100m at 12.0, you literally can't pen anything with armor whereas most of your competition has shit like DM53 (650 @ 100), M829A2 (628 @ 100), even the shitty Russian 3BM60 is 578 @ 100
Like I am looking at every nation and everyone else gets more pen than you. Some are a bit grim/close, like Frenchie OFL 120 which is only 574 but even that is better than your shell and they can just use their Leopards with DM53 if they need high pen
Meanwhile the best you can do is a single fucking 11.7 tank that was graced with DM53
And what do you get in exchange for the worst top tier round in the game? Slow, lumbering tanks with piss poor armor that die if anyone looks at you.
Genuinely what in the world is the point of playing British ground? What strengths does it have? WHY does Britain have to suffer so immensely? I think it may be the least handheld tree in the entire game, if it were any worse it would be trolling your team to play Britain.
>>530379121In larger aircraft with more than 2 crew it'd be beneficial, but anything smaller it wouldn't be viable I'll agree. In the larger long range bombers like the lancasters/B-17s/B-29s/etc it'd work decently since they have multiple crew that could swap into the pilot's seats or turrets and they could add in crew that are currently missing in game adding slightly more survivability for aircraft that aren't super survivable in a lot of cases. I've been playing the Shackleton lately and it's been irking me that the plane has 6 extra crew classed as gunners that are completely pointless to have when there's only 2 sets of guns which can get knocked out fairly easily leaving the thing practically defenseless if the rear turret gets knocked out and there's all these assholes just sitting there instead of doing anything useful, and it's pissed me off enough to start bitching about it since only 4 of the 10 crew do anything with the way the aircraft and mechanics are modeled currently.
>>530381548>the plane has 6 extra crew classed as gunners that are completely pointless to have when there's only 2 sets of guns which can get knocked out fairly easily leaving the thing practically defenselessI think this is a more reasonable qualm - if they're trained as gunners, there should be a short interval where they pull the dead gunner out of the seat and swap in, like when a tank loses a gunner and you can't fire for a bit, and then you can start using the gun again
Not much reason not to model this/have it usable, it would actually be moderately useful compared to trying to swap in a pilot with someone who can't be expected to have piloting skills and pull out of a dive before the guy turns you into confetti

>>530378487he'd fit right in with this general/lowiq/wartg tho.
>>530379663>>530380756it's not hard to do, it's just that it was never worth it until multi-vehicle SAMs became a thing. way easier to get kills on than a tiny little strela hiding under a rock or a moderately better armored gepard. anyway there's only a few helis in the game that can do it efficiently because you need the right HUD elements and S8K0s, hydras are probably not going to cut it. in any case you're still probably better off slinging vikrs.
>operation of IRCM, disruption of missile guidance
How exactly does an IRCM disrupt the guidance of a WIRE GUIDED TOW?
Like I'm sorry, is this system capable of entering the wire that guides the missile and scrambling the signal? It's not an IR, or radio operated missile, it's literally steered via a fucking wire and you're trying to tell me IRCM can disrupt that and make it do loops?
>>530383443It's optically guided and uses an IR beacon in the back of the missile to track where it is. The wire is there to communicate orders to the missile but those orders are given by the confused launcher. Price to pay for early SACLOS I guess.
>>530383443This is racism ))))
>be bad
>blame everything else but yourself
>>530384018If it's IR guided why the fuck even make it SACLOS? Just get rid of the wire and make it fire & forget, it can IR guide to the target and I can fuck off and do something else
If it gets countermeasured, it would've been worthless even with the completely vestigial wire guidance anyways
>>530384269Do you know how to read? It isn't IR guided, it's optically guided and there's an IR beacon on the back for the purpose of tracking the missile's position and feeding that data to the launcher's FCS.
So there's Twinkfemboy in my game, and Twink femboy lover, this game has it all really
>>530383280just tested with apache and rah-66, both work, hydras are fine
>>530383443The signal sent down the wire is calculated based on the IR signal received from the missile, retard, and that's what is being disrupted.
Speaking of racism, when is Britain getting a Brimstone launcher?
It's capable of surface to surface launch and being fielded in Ukraine right now on the "Wolfram" Supacat chassis
There's also proposals that it could be mounted on the Ajax AFV (finally seeing deliveries) or on the Challenger 2
I wonder if a Challenger 2 with a Brimstone launcher would be any good, actually. Looking at the amount of pen it gets, I think it very well might be.
Every british vehicle in the game is a brimstone.
>>530384647interesting. the non-kamov cockpit hud elements were broken for like a solid year, it appears they've been un-fucked.
other good candidates include the chinese mi-35 and the 10.0 eurocopter, which I've done some long-shooting with in the past
>>530385370you really do have only one webm
The fact that the VBCIs transmission can just be destroyed by 7.62 coax is absolutely wild.
>>530385878Skill issue, do not get spotted next time
>Challenger 2 BN package
>with the Export EuroPowerPack engine for added mobility
>and a Brimstone launcher on top of the turret so you can roll up to a hill and nigger Brimstones from a turret down position
>at 12.0
Britain deserves this to make up for all the suffering they've endured
>>530385784I just like it bro
>>530386075Also I'd move the 11.7 Chally 2s down to 11.3 (they should probably be there anyways) and the 12.0 BN/E to 11.7 since this new Chally 2 would be actual 12.0 material

Saars when are they doing the needful and redeeming more Indian vehicles to the Britisher tech tree? I need to make full Indian lineup but we only have the Bhishma and two AA vehicles, the Vijayanta isn't proudy enough for the 10.7 lineup
Also we could use helicopter or something I have to up tier the Bhishma with the Jaguar IS if I want to use a plane or use the Marut which is also not proudy enough for 10.7

this thing is so short that if you sit here enemy tanks cant actually hit you and have to push into a hugely unfavorable scenario
If you ever see a chink with the old guard title or any of the titles for playing this game for a long time, report them for stolen/bought accounts as the chinks did not have access to the game at the time of account registrations for accounts that are old enough to have said titles. Also chink accounts that have the german paper tanks are also worth reporting as I'm pretty sure they didn't get access to the regular game at that time due to having their tencent operated paypig servers at the time those vehicles were removed from the non chink servers.
Is the yamato worth grinding for? Im considering finish my jap naval tree but im not sure if its worth the pain, only have hyuga, ise, and amagi atm for battleships

A few weeks ago I finally got into my first jet with the he163. Now I'm a full rank above and I can say that the best early jet they have is the ho 229. Its cannons are actual monsters and the turn rate it has defies physics. The only thing it truly lacks is acceleration, but when fully upgraded it can still stay relevant in 9.0 br.
Also, either the swiss hunter is insane for its rating or the saber mk6 is just underperforming for its br.

My dearest love, a marvel made of steel,
So small, so swift, how true my heart does feel.
No grandest tank, with bulk and roaring might,
Could ever shine as brightly in my sight.
You whisper low upon the dusty ground,
Before the foe knows you are to be found.
A low-slung shadow, quick and light and keen,
The cleverest machine I've ever seen.
By rotor's thrum, or ramp let down with grace,
You swiftly claim your most unlikely place.
Through trackless wilds, or forests deep and vast,
Your loyal tracks will always hold me fast.
Though humble in your armored, compact frame,
You carry fire, a fearsome, hidden flame.
A steady TOW, a cannon's precise aim,
You stand beside me, whispering my name.
My tiny titan, built for daring flight,
You bring the dawn to shadows of the night.
So Wiesel, agile, brave, and ever true,
My dearest armored love, I cherish you.

Then there's telemetry data, this one is tricky because you can't delete these manually and need to do it trough powershell and then disable them trough registry policy.
Note that you can't uninstall the collector itself as it's protected and you signed EULA to render the rights for it away, so blocking it is best you can do without complete reformatting of drives.

Now the mystere IV, that's an absolute shit plane. Somehow shittier acceleration than the previous ones. Big wings so it bleed energy hard but has a low stall speed. Unironically enjoyed making niggers overshoot me then either they get shot by me or they stall and die.

If you're bad at bombing I think the prop a21a has a CCRP for bombs, you can use that to drop bombs pretty high up.
Saab 105g has a CCIP at 8.3 which makes nuking things from orbit super easy since most SPAA at that tier cant handle it. It also has aim 9b's which make sneaking kills easy since they dont expect to get aim9'd at that low of a BR

How are you meant to play 5.7/Rank III Germany without buying the Two Fronts pack? Serious question.
You get one (1) Tiger H, the Tiger E is 6.0 so it'll uptier your lineup, you get the Pz IV/70, you get a 5.3 Panther, I guess you add the Waffentrager into your lineup too?
But it really sorta feels like buying the Two Fronts pack so you can have 3 Tigers is basically mandatory
>>530432418I've been posting here for 10 years and have never had something that weird cross my mind, you're just fucking gay, take some responsibility yourself.

>they can't do shit to CLs and CAs.That's what the torpedoes are for, SAP rounds can do more than HE against armor, same with the rare AP round, but it's still not sufficient against most cruisers unless you're almost point-blank, which means the cruisers will just rape you anyways.

I got the F-5A from a the last lootboxes and just started playing it now. How do I do anything? Never played jets before.
I figured out how to use the IRST bros. I'm also getting a couple to a few kills now every now and then instead of just dying everygame. It seems like people don't expect the R24-Rs to be so good in a front aspect, and trying to get kills later with the 4 shittier missiles in "stealth" mode is kinda fun ngl.

Cool but DX12 (which is mandatory for RT) is STILL able to randomly decide to lock your FPS to something unplayably low upon a level transition (read: upon loading into a match or returning to the hangar).
>>530434329>4.0>400mm of HEAT-FS penAre they retarded?

>>530435461You notice the more subtle parts of RT like that subconsciously. Like you look at a dark scene and go "damn, this looks... right?". Meme puddles/mirrors are just whatever in comparison.
>>530434565should've invented ERA decades before it would've had a reason to exist
>>530434512I have a 4090 and War Thunder randomly crashes only with DX12 + ray tracing enabled
Also HDR is bugged forever where it always loads the game with washed colors and to fix it I need to swap to DLSS Balanced then back to Quality
SSAA is also dogshit which gives me only 80fps at 4k while looking inferior to DLSS for some reason

Germany destroyed some absurd number in 1941 numbering above 20,000 to which Hitler basically said wtf we only had 3,000
>>530436179Stalins response was that it must have been sabotage.
>>530436273It was, Soviet crews would abandon tanks under small arms fire
>>530436273Nah, Hitler did nothing wrong and only managed that because the Soviets were congregating in massive concentrated formations and stockpiling huge amounts of materiel right at the border and he rightfully deduced that their attack was imminent so he hit first
If the Soviets were in a defensive posture with multiple lines like at Kursk in 1943, Germany would have exhausted their attack within weeks and forced on the defensive

>>530439023Yes it's me. Thank you for the playstyle tips. Sending those r60s from above and watching them not even flare being 100% clueless it's priceless. It's just a bit of a spiderman pointing at each other moment when I see another dude in the enemy team doing the same "climbing just bellow contrail" strat and we have to head on each other. But the R24-Rs are perfect for that scenario so I'm starting to really get the hang of this thing.
>>530440113no thanks im not gay like you
>>530439730i don't publicly seethe about it,but I do fucking hate getting killed by it, especially because there's so much bullshit ass deadspace in the vehicle, so it's hard to kill with an autocannon sometimes. Most of the time it's a free kill.
>>530440213Not the other anon but sounds like good fun, happy hunting!
why is the ground sim map rotation so shit?
genuinely what's their fucking problem
>>530440213That's good. If you manage to do well in the MiG-23ML right now you'll be alright when you play all the other USSR jets since almost everything is basically that playstyle but mechanics and armaments become better
>>530439730Frankly I find the premise of a self-propelled howitzer being labelled as a tank destroyer insulting.

>>530441808I have 2x 4090s and frame gen is only worth it if you have a base FPS of 80+. It's not a saving grace for poorfags making 30fps on minimum settings.
I have 2 4090s for AI work but also found out later you can use Lossless Scaling to dedicate a second GPU on, to eliminate the overhead on the rendering GPU
Not worth it for War Thunder since I hit my monitor's refresh rate of 240 easily on one, but for games like Cyberpunk I get beyond 5090 performance doing this and helps me cope with skipping this generation and waiting to buy 2 6090s next gen
>>530438818>>530439898yeah I just don't see the a7e for grb
maybe it's better positioned for taking out SAMs but I doubt it. the reality is that most of what you get to hit with ordnance is going to be moving, there just aren't that many low-visual-clutt34 grb maps where people take up static positions and sit hull-down anymore. you could maybe pick up some walleye kills on arctic but the a10 is going to be more practical in more situations
>>530434512how about spending their resources on fixing the crappy physics instead of bloating the already bloating graphics ? watching tanks behave like a jelly is not funny anymore.

>>530442524Totally, but for example i play in DSR upscaling the game on my 1440p monitor to 3840x2160, then a pass of frame generation brings it from 80-90 to 160+ on my 165hz monitor so it works wonders for me. (Got a RTX3080)

>>530444198I'm going to be honest with you, they should've welded the hatches shut so the crew couldn't bail out
Death before Dishonor
Maybe if you're an ace tank crew with 5 credited kills we give you one of the nicer T-34-85s from one of the good factories with unwelded hatches so you have a chance to survive since you're worth more than the tank, but for the rest of the conscripts you're trapped in the tank until combat is over and we cut the weld and let you out

>>530447337japan has a chaffee doesn't it?
should be incredibly easy
just hide behind a berm or hill and scout shit, eventually you'll find good targets that you can safely pop out at take a shot at (try and kill them if you want, odds are you'll only wound anyway, but you can also load up HE or something to try and blow off their tracks if you're getting too lucky)
>>530446708I'll let you in on a little secret: even advanced numerical modeling software (the very ones used for these "X shell vs Y vehicle" vids) deals with health points when you get down to the very finest scale of the simulation. If you're dealing with computers, you HAVE to draw the line and start abstracting things sooner or later.
Do wet ammo racks work in this game
>>530448931How many do you need for a streak? I had at least 2 with the same vehicle
>>530450371Yes. Except for sometimes.
>>5304505153
if you think you're gonna forget, go into the decals section of your profile and track progress cause that one actually tells you everything you need
everywhere else it says 'assists'
>>530450759How much of a football field in Big Macs per second do you need your shell traveling at to ammo rack most tanks?
>>530350540 (OP)For me? I make imaginary lores for my vehicles + skins for them:
> SW T 80 U --> East German T-80U (added the brown camo from the germ T-72M1)> FR Rafale C F3-R --> Luftwaffe Rafale C F3-R>East German Mi-24P --> Post-German Unification Mi-24P (added the bundeswehr emblem)>SW Strv 122A --> Bundeswehr Strv 122A (added the cool brown camo)>many more kino shit
>>530450886fuck that then. I'm not doing 90 assists just for a decal
I know 4 in a row is 2 awards etc. but shit's just not worth the effort
>>530447337you sure you're not scouting them?
>>530451268Japan doesn't have a light tank with a 90mm gun
>>530453180they usually are
>>530450952The Long 88 ammo racks most of the time so about 9 football fields per second or 11000 big macs per second

>>530459803they're (probably) not doing a swede tree (anytime soon) because it would stop at 6.0 or something, and unlike other navies the swedes didnt even plan anything bigger/more powerful than the coastal defense ships, let alone lay anything down

>>530464990Money, MBT-B was a three-tier lootbox system that would require you to drop a few hundred dollars to get (and you could end up getting the Chieftain or Vercingetorix instead)
Sure, it's a nigger krokmobile with a 3x2 autoloader (it has a forced fire mechanic where you HAVE to fire two shells in rapid succession) at 400 alpha per shell, so 2400 burst damage where something like an IS-7 has 2400 HP and you can literally clip any medium, most TDs and most Heavies out of the fucking game in 8.5s it takes to unload it and then can go next, but hey it made them $200-500 so it's cool
But yes the autoloader meta is insane in WoT now, there's almost no reason to play anything that isn't a clip-based autoloader or auto-reloader. Single shot tank? Enjoy getting yolo'd and killed the moment your HP drops low enough to get magdumped out of existence.
>>530464049No and that is by design. The Anglo Saxon only exists in War Thunder to be humiliated and smeared. Germany are allowed to be strong to make Russia seem stronger in comparison (for beating them single handidly in the Great Patriotic War), America are allowed to be fairly strong too (but much less so than in real life) to make their struggles against them in the Cold War seem more heroic. France are allowed to be fairly strong due to their investment in Russian factories for Danone, Renault etc, similarly with China. Britain hasn't been in a direct war with Russia for over 100 years yet Russia sees Britain as their greatest regional antagonist so must engage in a constant state of FIMI (Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference) and smear campaigns against them and War Thunder is a minor part of that.

>>530427792after playing with the super mystere, I think the Mystere IV ain't that bad. At least it can move around, Super Mystere barely can do 7g turns at higher speed while the Mystere can do 12g turns stock like it's nothing. Both got shitty acceleration, but I guess the afterburner is nice if you like to waste fuel for a mediocre boost. The mystere work better at low speed due to its low stall speed, making you good at fucking up people in dogfights but this only works on 1v1 with retards who dont know they could just boom n zoom. With the superior agility of mystere iv, the nord missiles are also way better because you can basically do a sharp turn and launch one of someone's nose.

>>530487057Irrelevant to making them mald but also a full million killed in 3 years? ooh boy that's a tough cost for the national ego on a one month special operation.
Guys I'm actually having fun and kicking ass in my XM803. Been playing for about two hours, how long until the snail puts me back in my place?
>>530487447>a full million killed in 3 years>believing hohol numbers
>>530487713hows the war going?
>>530486905When half your turret crew has been nuked and your barrel is broken, you shouldn't be fucking repairing your barrel within 13 seconds
he had no one helping him repair either
>>530481152Don't listen to the retards here. With the Su-30SM you CANNOT contest high flyers in BVR. Stay just under contrail and expend a couple of missles on them once they are at 40km, then NEVER commit to the BVR and as soon as the missles get launched, turn 180ยฐ and do a large kinetic defense circle, then, always under contrail altitude, recommit behind your team and rain your R-77-1 onto the enemies that are spotted by your low flying frendlies. The more the enemy clusters up, the more kills you get.
Your only role in BVR is sacrifice a couple of missles so the enemy up above has some pressure, you CANNOT win against EF2000 and F15E. You are too slow.
>>530487809we will run out of ammo in 2 weeks sir
>>530487713I'd trust a hohol before a russian.
>>530487051the entire story is implausible chimpy bait, if it was instead the 76mm battle ass variant there's simply no way he couldn't have gotten the second or third or fourth shot on cyclically speaking unless there are omitted events like absolute dogshit shooting between the lines, or he didn't actually break the barrel but only color damaged it at which point it would repair faster especially with rep assist
but if it was the 8.0 tech tree version with the 155mm gun-launcher, the tiger should've probably been full dead or irreversibly crippled first shot and even if it's a Tiger II was also in a beyond full uptier yet still won out because he just sat in the shootable open for the entirety of a quarter minute reload, which might somehow make him even more of a giga ultra shitter than if he fucked up with shot placement on the 76mm
>>530487324Italy gets a version of German 3.3-4.0 that is generally kinder in terms of matchmaking due to having more sweaty minorlet players, as well as the same thing for American 3.7-4.0 and a 5.0 Firefly that gets APDS, they have some nice indigenous props plus pasta. Japan is often suffering but eventually gets the best yet most uptiered Panzer IV style square armor railgun shitboxes plus UFO CAP and some fun bomber-fighters. just assuming wantonly that you're both talking about GRB and going to gravitate to the other Axis Powers here.
>>530487964so it WAS the 155mm and you DID die to a 6.7 at best and a 5.7 at worst in an 8.0 light tank that you should have immediately pulled back into defilade with and completely repositioned the moment you fired whether or not you killed him? and he allegedly had no repair assist at all?
chimpout lies or turboshittery, call it anons

>>530487964Better pay up for those Ace Crews then XD ))))))
>>530488189I figured, thank you for the actual helpful advice, it's what I've been doing and managing to score 3+ a game, but it's just frustrating trying to ever fight them, most of the time my team dies.
Does contrail height differ per map? if I remember it's like 4-5k right?
>>530485041Because on uneven terrain the tank rotates around 3 axes, not 2. For accuracy it is better to keep the gun and gunsight perfectly level. They didn't have fancy targeting computers in the 1960s
WHY ARE GERMAN PLAYERS BLIND AND DEAF FUCKING RETADS ARE THEY ALL 23 IQ MONGOLOIDS?
>>530490416nice try mossad
Am I supposed to be playing simulator battles or something? I've just been doing ground realistic battles.
>>530490416>First treetards who don't have their shit together because they're learning the gameor
>Wittman reincarnated having his ears turned off by the Yudintsevs' roboNKVD algorithmAmericans on the other hand just stay stupid, sad!

>>530490917funniest post in a while
>>530490917I look smell sound taste feel and act like this
I just want to play the commanche bros but holy FUCK US teams are simple uncarryable. they don't kill scouts, they don't play positions, they just hold W and ten of them are dead in two seconds
>>530489368Yes, it changes but it's not a big deal. It's just something up of 5km, i just stay a little under 5km
why does rusniggerjanny ban me for pointing out that Russians are terrible at this game with the lowest top tier winrate?
>>530441000>flank>literally the single biggest clusterfuck hotspot on the map
