Uninstalled it a while a ago, have they fixed all the broken FMs? Is bomber cockpit view in yet?
You know, I thought urban maps for tanks would be pretty cool. But then I played on Berlin and decided that urban maps fucking suck and I'd take fields and hills over them any day.
>>121516873
Except Berlin IS a field-and-hill map, retard. Having a handful of buildings over to the side is virtually no different from the rock/trench/hill/castle formation you see on all the field maps.
>>121516873
Urban maps are the best right now because spotting is fucked on non-flat surfaces
>>121517174
In that case it was the other city. Can't remember the name, but the one with the big cathedral type building.
>>121516853
>have they fixed all the broken FMs?
Yes, most of them were fixed, only ones left are the N1K's without any FM, Griffon spits missing 150 octane and Cannon Bearcat melting in 30 seconds.
>Is bomber cockpit view in yet?
No, only a few bombers received cockpit view.
>>121516873
Berlin is shit. Either get Poland or Eastern Europe, both are great. not sure about the new maps, but I think they are both urban too
>>121517351

Is Pengie your fursona lol fag
Is the bomber thing patched?
>>121518407
When you compare it to the griffons, it seems balanced.
>>121519091
I've heard that the Griffons actually fly more or less how they should be flying, which raises and interesting question: if they were just that fucking good, how do you balance them? The only things higher than their BR are jet fighters which outclass them heavily, and artificially nerfing a plane just kind of feels wrong.

>if they were just that fucking good
That fucking good at what?
The thing is, Griffon spits are really well suited for the kind of combat you see in War Thunder. That's not to say other aircraft of the era had nothing on it, you just don't see the strengths of those aircraft in this game.
>>121521190
Nope, they are currently in process of banning people that did it anyway, but you're welcome to try
>>121520948
Mk XII production only started in october 42 iirc and only 100 were made.
Mk XIV started appearing late 43 and there were only 900 something.
The only other non-post war Griffons had only 300 something made.
>>121521919
And I hate using this phrase, but that's not nearly enough to "win the war."
Compare that to the numbers of US aircraft manufactured during the war.
I'm honestly of the opinion that the US wasn't totally concerned with making "the best of the best" fighters.
>total shitter crashes on landing
>he acts like he has room to critique other people

>>121522239
It's not enough to win the war, but it was certainly enough to shit all over what was left of the Luftwaffe in the British-controlled areas and the V1 program.
>>121521648
>Griffon spits are really well suited for the kind of combat you see in War Thunder
Low altitude monsters as opposed to high alt beasts?

>>121522458
>tfw this is the only vaguely modern-styled jet we will get
tfw not banned
>>121522504
Not even comparing their high alt vs low alt performance, think about how close airfields are to each other in this game. That gives a huge advantage to the plane with the higher climb rate, they might find their opponent and kill them before they reach the altitude they want to fight at.
>>121523146

>>121524047
They probably banned the biggest badgoys and anybody who was spamming chat about it I guess. There are several things that make this situation absolutely perfect.
1. small family company
2. patch day, programmers are exhausted
3. almost the weekend, no one wants to start a project
4. A LOT of people were doing it, but there was also a significant amount of people playing normally
5. "let's keep this quiet so the goy don't rebel"
Was GF damage increased in 1.53?
I'm seeing a lot of one shot kills from all sides.

I've mostly flown the T-bolt since the patch hit.
You'd think a plane that dives that fast would be at extreme risk of blackouts. But I haven't. All the spitfires on my team were dying to zeroes due to blackouts and I was mopping up the mess.
I'm not sure if I have my play style to thank for that, or the fact that my crew skill for G-tolerance is 3 and I get +3 from expert P-47D qualification. Might be both.

I did it in a single arcade game. After they had patched it out. I got 700 RP for crashing five bombers, then I played about a dozen tank games.
I'll be unbanned tomorrow around 3 PM EST.
I just wanted to see what it was like. I wouldn't even be mad if most of the people who got several hundred thousand RP out of it went untouched.
I'm honestly regretting buying a year of premium during the sale.

The only enjoyable parts of War Thunder for me were realistic battles or simulator where me and my small squadron would fly around and maybe not even see anyone. We'd just shoot the shit and fly around and look for the enemy.
I enjoy the lulls in combat. They make the combat actually interesting.
>>121529863
It's almost like realism in video games is inherently boring.
>>121530161
>I enjoy the lulls in combat.
It's not a lull in the combat if 99% of your time playing is a lull. It's a tiny bit of combat in a sea of lull.

>tfw banned
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdC1FHi5Xak
>>121528387
Warthunder will never, ever be a simulator for air. The thing is, when they do stuff like nerf saber roll rate or buff something stats, it's no longer a sim. They can't make stats shit up willy nillie and claim it's accruate
>>121530679
>Americans suffer the most
Because you american pilots are fucking retards. I take out the P47 constantly and have major success. The F6F hellcat is also fucking amazing. And the bearcat is just an unbelievable prop. It dives at 700kmh + and can turn like a zero at times. Yet you faggots cannot work with these amazing planes.
>>121531297
They only do amazing because they're undertiered greatly because of shit faced pilots.
The map design still favours a low alt fighter over the p-51 or p-47
If there were missions where you had to escort B-17s at 21k feet the P-47 would be much stronger than any yak-3.
>>121531267
The inherent problem is that people want accurate vehicles facing historical opponents when some vehicles are just plain better than what they faced.
A locust has no business fighting other Arab-Israeli War tanks despite the fact that it did serve in that war.

>Realism in video games

Are 50kg bombs useful for ANYTHING at all?
>Test flight has one single soft target, or multiple soft targets and a bunch of ships if you're clapper or britbong

>>121531756
>This is where events could come in handy, but gaijin are lazy shits for events
Events or well-designed game modes would 100% fix virtually every problem with the game.
Arcade, Realistic, and Simulator are all absolute shit. Gaijin needs to hire someone with even the most basic grasp on game design, because this is embarrassing. I'm hoping the fucking esports mode ends up being at least mildly thought out.
>>121532051

>>121532051

>>121532378

>>121532128
>fuse meme
The delay's been twice as long in Arcade since day one. And you regularly get multikills with it.
You know, the game mode where planes spawn in with a giant red marker permanently stuck on them, where rolling SPAA is not only viable but expected for at least a quarter of your team, where the game forces you to lead your shots, and where you literally cannot use a plane tactfully since you have less than thirty seconds to use it.
What you're saying is that you're more incompetent than an arcade shitter despite having a much more favorable environment.
Can the Tiger or panther(s) pen the Black Prince from the front? I haven't used my Tiger or Panthers to face them yet.

If you suck dick at little bombs, don't use them.
>>121532542
At close range.
It can angle at about 45 degrees, though.
So I guess it's evident now just how bullshit Ground Forces is and how it's designed for Soviet vehicles to excel.
The fucked up MM, the poor zoom/ view ranges that force most engagements to close range. Where, surprise surprise, Soviet tanks do the best and things like Tigers cannot sit at stand-off ranges.
Was almost considering updating and playing this again. But then I see stuff like that, plus how Gaijin is prioritizing premium vehicles and cosmetic things over fixing the flaws that run deep throughout the game.
How pathetic.

You mean Yak-3, not Yak-3P. The 3P actually faces planes that can fuck it up. And will fuck it up, if they were piloted by competent players. Which they aren't.

>>121542846
They're more balanced.
The penetration mechanics are very different. Shatter exists, so T-34s don't just autopenetrate Pz IV F2s every time. All of the tanks are fairly survivable and have to rely on hitting weakpoints.
There's no nuke filler in Russian shells either. If anything, the damage is too low on all shells. The first hit is unlikely to do much, but subsequent hits have more an increased chance to do damage.
Interior views so differences in visibility exist, and even crew size plays some role. T-34s are limited by their commander/gunner, and the T-70 has the commander loading too, so he has to look away from the optics when doing so.
That said, they're under utilized and somewhat clunky, so it's not as great as it sounds.

After the last few games with the A7He1 I can tell you it fucking doesn't. The MG/FF-M on the 110 rips things to shreds, the cannons on the 112 family struggle to damage anything both when I use them and when people use them on me.

With the obvious exception of the A-0.
>>121554120
It's exactly what you'd expect, ~1 kill per game because after that you either get mobbed or climb to space to wait it out
>>121554494You can treat yourself to my cock if it'll make you feel better.
>>121554406
I have over 800 kills with planes that mount mgff, I'd say they are pretty good.
>>121554108
>>121554529
I know. It's almost as if there's no room for improvement. ;_;
Specifically, in my experience, it's "get mobbed in space." I've had "dogfights" with 5+ enemies at 9000m altitude andthings might have been different if my bursts didn't spark a dozen times in a row

Only played on a short range map thus far, couldn't tell. But the shot markers are fucking gay.
Also, is there a way to turn off auto track-repair? Does more harm than good, I like to angle my tank before repairing, hell managed to do a full 180 a few times to return fire.

Nah, man. They've got most of the work already done. They were considering delaying 1.53 until they could finish and include it, but they decided 1.53 was already big enough and they'd do two major updates separated by a short interval.
Same thing happened with 1.49 and 1.51.

What did they do to the fuses?
>>121564965
can't make bombs instantly explode on contact anymore, potentially giving your enemies time to drive away and with a 50 kg bomb you don't have to drive very far
>>121564965
No more <5 second fuses. They've been replaced by Assault Fuse which explodes on contact but no sooner than 4.5 seconds after you drop the bomb.
It's basically killed low-alt dive bombing against anyone who isn't a distracted shitter locked into sniper mode.

Because everything but planes is half size, including targets and explosions.
>>121565154
>>121565127
So does the bomb dud or does it cintinue to count lying on the ground?
Why won't slavs climb so that I can club them easier?
>>121565589
see thats the problem, explosions are way smaller than they should be across the board
the fab-5000 should explode an entire tank column and columns next to them - in game you're lucky if you kill two mediums with it
>>121565604
They just kinda bounce around until the timer is up.
I don't actually mind it though since good players will drop from altitude and aren't affected by it and it gives counterplay to all the allahu akbar fags.
Fab-5000
>The first bomb fell in open ground, leaving a crater 6 metres (20 ft) in diameter and 3 metres (9.8 ft) in depth. Grass in a radius of 150 m was charred. The second bomb landed in the woods, and left a crater of 8 metres (26 ft) in diameter and 3 metres (9.8 ft) in depth. Some 600 trees were torn out within a 70 m radius, while 30 percent of the trees within 135 m also fell down. Later tests produced craters up to 20 metres (66 ft) in diameter and 9 metres (30 ft) in depth

You can't drive it, but you can make a CDK User Mission to look at it. I legit thought more people would post vids of it, but I guess not.
Here's a User Mission. I changed the player's tank to 85t, because I don't know what tanks you own. Put this in UserMissions folder in your War Thunder one and play it though User Missions in the game.
www filedropper /trainingground85t
If you want to change your vehicle (you need to own it) or the the 4 IS-4s attacking the two E-100s to anything else, here's the names of the tanks in the files. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1IbLiG_5Zum9vHbu3XS8e-QlYUCkK7cD9Ci5tblrEzQw/edit?pli=1#gid=0
Just open the .blk file in text editor and go to where it says "germ_pzkpfw_38t_ausf_A" or "ussr_is_4m" and replace it with your thing. Don't forget to save the file. You do have to own the vehicle you want to play, though, so keep that in mind. For bots, it doesn't matter. Alternatively you can google "war thunder cdk" and create your own mission

I think the "max speed" is taking the max engine RPM at the highest gear and saying "that's your max speed right there lad" but in most tanks you'll never see the max engine RPM in the top gear unless you're cruising downhill in a straight line.

For a few hours it was possible to earn retarded amunts of RP by crashing bombers thanks to a glitch
People abused it and got millions of RP
Some of those people are now getting banned
>>121568332
There was a bug where crashing full bombers into the ground got you tons of RP, but it's over and some kids of banned
Hi guys, how do I do the bomber glitch?
>>121568395
>Some of those people are now getting banned
for 1 day lol
>>121568469

>>121568395
As in, you take your wellington, slam it into the ground, and get the RP reward? Jesus, how does one mess up like that? What's funny is that I can't even imagine how did someone find that out. I mean, crashing an attacker or a fighter strafing ground units is nothing new, but a damn bomber?
>>121568395
>for a few hours
It's been around since the update dropped, and only became common knowledge when Reddit figured it out.
>tfw not banned probably because i have more kills and higher kdr in bombers than most players do with fighters
>>121568551
OKAY HELMET POTATO
>>121568532
From what I've heard it's an actual mechanic, I think it's supposed to make the lives of bomberbabbys easier by giving them an extra bit of RP if they die. Only they shipped it with a bug and it was giving people hundreds of thousands of RP instead of the intended 1000 or so
>>121568532
The more bombs you had the more RP you got. I did it with the first jap bomber with 19 bombs to grind Zeroes.
>>121568532
it was probably meant to be a pity reward for dumb bombers who rip their own wings off accidentally or who get shot down before reaching their target and dropping their bombs
>>121568395
Did they get to keep the RP?
Is me or is it impossible to space the Do-17Z2 because one of the bomb modules is missing?
>>121568395
The only people that I've seen that got banned are the small time offenders that did it like 5 times for shit and giggles in Arcade and a bunch of noobs that just crash their bombers because they're retarded.
Meanwhile I'm probably the biggest offender of abusing this and still not banned, Gaijin are such a bunch of fuckups it's unbelievable.
>>121568734
My guess is because they weren't actively looking for it until recently.
>>121568734

>>121568734

Meanwhile the rus team is getting absolutely slaughtered, we had a civil-war style line of soldiers on one of the bridges pointing at their spawn.

When playing as burgers, you do not care about your team mates. The fuckbois will die first while hopefully a few of you will have climbed. Then you just abuse your energy advantages.

It's like a chinese tinkerer tried to modify a mig-15 into a mig-21.
Are hull MGs even active or did Gaijin lie about that too?

They didn't even fix the overheating, they just gave it it's old FM back, it doesn't perform as well now as it used to, even if it did melt right after.

This is getting out of control
Have any particular tactics for the Hunter been worked out yet?
>>121581598
Fly directly in to ground. Is real world tactic.
>>121581347
I dunno, man, being able to play whichever plane I want is pretty nice.
>>121581710
>I LIKE MIXED BATTLES
COME HERE SHITHEAD I'LL FUCKING KICK YOUR HEAD IN
>>121581779
The problem with mixed battles is getting matched against your own nation, which doesn't happen in Sim.
Get the fuck over it.
>>121581347
>Axis-Allies
>Not more of the same bullshit found in the normal matchups
>Krauts vs Claps reduced to premium La5FNs and premium P47s against premium Zeros and other premium planes
At least it allows you to take whatever plane you want instead of restricting you to a few with a pay-to-play mentality
**Just to clarify, I'm not defending it. The cancer just spreads to normal matchups too.**
How's the Hohol after 1.53?
>>121581970
Captured premiums should have never been introduced.

Fixed ultralow and windows XP render on a Radeon X1600 - X1900.
Fixed glitch on aircraft position extrapolation on long distances ('jumpings").
Fixed rendering of bomb craters.
Fixed capture bases position on Stalingrad tank map.
Stability improvements.

>>121583324
Why are there always those two or three people that just wait for a notification of a ground unit being destroyed so they can know where you are and shit out all of their altitude for one kill?
Is it me or is the horizon more curved in this patch?
>>121577062
Just started grinding the first Me 262.
