Okay what the actual FUCK has Gaijin done to guns? I swear to FUCK no matter what plane I fly, on what server, against what nation, no matter how low my ping is, 9/10 hits produce nothing but sparks or minor hit +1

I'm used to watching bombers tank hundreds of rounds but we're talking about any plane, even fucking biplanes tanking HEI cannon shells like fucking nothing

I meant that I was angled such that I was nearly facing the enemy, but that I had angled myself slightly to increase my effective armor angling.

FUCK.

>>147542524
Something tells me you were angled more than you should have been. Remember the tiger II's side is only 80mm.

Nah it was in an arcade game I was in for some grinding. That mode still attracts a decent number of knuckle-draggers though.

>>147541975
it won't piss them off as much as bailing out right when they get behind you after turnfighting for 3 minutes

>>147544128

I had someone do this to me last night.
I already had 3 kills, so it was like... "Thanks for saving me the ammo bro!"

All I care about is costing them money. Dead is dead.

>>147544128
then they eventually would've outplayed me, though. I feel they deserve the kill if that happened.
Besides, if I'm in a scenario where I can turnfight for three minutes, I can probably also just win the game.

>>147544978
Sometimes it bothers me, sometimes it doesn't. But what you must never do is say something in the chat about it. No matter what you say you will appear bitter and rustled and that's what they want.

Just stay silent and fly away like nothing happened. He's dead and you're alive and that's all that really matters.

Why is EC so dead?

It's p good, like other guy said at worst it's still just a Cent 3 at 6.7 with prem rewards and the ge/prem time to go with it.
I'd say the rockets aren't all that shit though, it can be a bit of a hassle at times, but you pretty much shit on anything you hit with it.

>>147555197
>>147554656
Also if you are wanting a Cent 3 with RP/SL bonuses then you might as well go ahead because the Cent 3 is pretty good. Being 6.7 sucks, but honestly most of the time you don't face the 7.7 tanks from what i've found when doing Caer which is also 6.7

I came back to this game after like a year, and dogfighting/flying still feels great and easy to pick up but I'm absolute garbage at tanking.

Haha!

>>147561668
peta-friendly shells only i suppose

>>147561668
Crews in WW2 were usually given limited supplies of APCR rounds. Some people are so mind blazingly autistic as to replicate this.

>>147563735
Only reason I ever take less rounds is to not get racked as much.

>>147563735
surely for a major battle they could stuff the whole tank with those if they wanted and would only pick other shells to fight infantry, if a major tank battle was expected they could stuff the whole tank with apcr

>>147561052
I'm trying to create rosters for teams, so there will be a sorta competitive side. I will do my best as to host games three to four times a week, I'm tinkering around with a system I hope to perfect that allows teams to not be stacked to high hell with only heavy tanks.

>>147561668
I will restrict shells that exceed the cutoff date I've already decided, and yes there will be a limit on number of APCR shells, I do this to solely make battles more entertaining, not having three of your crew die in one shot due to APCR being used conclusively

>>147564129
Yeah no. Part of the reason APCR rounds were so limited was that they were more expensive and the materials for them weren't abundant.

>>147564129
APCR was limited due to tungsten shortages and there fore only used when an engament seemed one sided on the underdogs part.

>>147564582
>a major tank on tank battle is expected

>>147564431
Sounds like a really not fun custom game.

>>147564981
Posted from my time-travelling commiecannon

>>147564780
APCR was limited due to its production, also logistical problems stopped some battalions getting them.

Also what I mean by she'll restriction is that the IS-2 MOD.44 has a 1954 shell that has 230mm of pen. I want to phase out any shell that exceeds production out of 1945.

>>147564981
Sorry. I want to make it as fun as I can. But also include some form of realism, do you have any suggestions?

>>147565229
>some form of realism
I have a hard time equating War Thunder with realism.

>>147565229
Do it in a better game

>>147565229
Real life engagements were absolute stomps 9/10 times, it's not going to be fun for one side in general.

Also why the fuck are you posting here, you'd manage to get a grand total of like six people willing in wtg

Do you guys ever use any ammo that is not AP or AP related? A friend recommended me to just ditch the HE ammo since if it doesn't penetrate then there is no point in it, but I was wondering why would a game mechanic be there if it's useless.

I checked the wiki and I get the same feeling, but since you guys play this game more I thought you would know

>>147565583
I do not know any other game capable of my needs.


>>147565649
What other game? I would think iron front liberation.. But that game has hence died.


>>147565649
I am aware. Real life engaments involved slugging shells at a tank whoms crew had already passed. I just want to try and create a nice enviorment for people interested in what I am hoping to accomplish, as I have been let down in the past with groups that do this but stop after a time. And any member is needed honestly. One member with true dedication is better then 100 without.

>>147565992
heat?

>>147565992
same question here to be honest.

>>147565992
Nope, HE is useless, especially after Gaijin nerfed its damage.

>I was wondering why would a game mechanic be there if it's useless.
Because Gaijin.

>>147565992
HE's only good on vehicles with cannons as big as 105mm, 152mm, ect
and HEAT has always been pretty shitty.

125KB, 800x520px

>>147565649
Sorry my first reply was directed towards >>147565625

>>147565992
HE is functionally useless against everything other than SPAAs after Gaijin needed it a few months ago. 152mm HE doesn't kill shit anymore.

well, irl he wasn't an anti-tank shell, it was used against infantry and light armored vehicles, tracks and stuff, since we don't shell enemy trenches in this game no wonder he is of little use

>>147566351
>>147566210
so HEAT is also shit? damn, the "changing" ammo mechanic seemed fun but why bother now?

>>147565109
When was the BR-471D even made? I know it's a shell that's used by the IS-3, but that doesn't really indicate when it was made.

>>147566539
Eh, the big issue with HEAT is that it has a lot less range than AP rounds and is a lot more finicky in terms of damage.
It's alright in close range but I stopped bother with it after a while.

>>147566539
>>147566351
How is HEAT bad? In 6.7-8.0 battles it is all I see used. 300-400mm of armor is declared pointless due to the sheer pen of those munitions.

>>147566404
152mm HE was used effectively as a Tiger turret-popper, but good luck getting those results ingame.

>>147566742
>>147566539

>>147566671 here
I forgot to mention I haven't gotten to use the fin stabilized HE yet. But as of 5.7 BR I've dropped it.

>>147566852
There are few pure HEAT shells that have enough pen to be useful, notable exceptions being 152mm HEAT for the ISU-152 and Sheridan

HEAT-FS is a whole new beast that I'd far better than just HEAT

It was made near the 1950 era when the soviets sought to modernize their abundant storage of heavy tanks and anti-tank guns that used the 122mm caliber. the 122mm gun wasn't as good as a anti-tank gun as the 100mm that T-54 tanks were already housing. (The 122mm gun was more of a bunker buster weapon, along with the 130mm and 152mm weapons) the soviets were reluctant to adopt true MBTs, so that is why the T-10M was produced.

>>147567141
Sorry to sort of just graze your question. But the BR-471D was seen as an upgrade, surpassing the older shells and able to penetrate most captured German heavy tanks at 1000M out. War Thunder is strange as it gives tanks every shell they were used with until they were decommissioned. Being that the USSR still used IS-2s until 1991 I think it is unbalanced.

So after the M26 Pershing?

What should I research next? The Super Pershing? Or the first Patton? Which is the better tank??

>>147567570
Patton is just as squishy as the Pershing. The super perishing is pretty nice with the new gun and added armor.

>>147567465
>unbalanced
The word you are looking for is unhistorical. The BR-471D still penetrates less than the 88mm default shell, I wouldn't exactly call it unbalanced.

>>147567723
I say unbalanced as it tinkers with the historical setting that Gaijin poorly tries to keep afloat. But you are correct I should have used that word. But the new she'll also allows for an IS-2 to penetrate a H model Kingtiger at up to 1900M, so much as the mantle of the gun is fairly straight.

The only real unbalance is the quality of tank types out there. People want to be "The badass invincible heavy tank" so everyone chooses a heavy tank. It just destroys any balance that would even be prominent

>>147570837
Yet people actually have trouble killing tanks that have little to no armor as opposed to the tanks with the most armor and think the former is OP

This is bullshit. And before you say how can it be every death, I only play about two matches a day. It's not difficult remembering two matches a day.

>>147583643
Most tank "deaths" irl were tanks burning down if the crew didn't just ditch their tank scared shitless after getting hit

>>147583985
Tanks burning out wasn't uncommon, but ditching your tank after a single penetrating shot was much, much more common.

>>147584476
This is one of the easiest features gaijin could add especially since they already have the "tank is combat ineffective" but it'll never be implemented because the vast majority of players literally want the opposite of realism

>>147583985
True, just as the other anon said tank crews would ditch even from the slightest of penetrating shots. But that doesn't excuse this constant occurrence in game.

>>147585019

Supposedly repeated shots to the same area will make shells that are only missing a little pen be able to penetrate, so it'll just be an enormously silly SPAA buff with M42s massacring tiger 2s everywhere.

>>147585007
>implying people are willing to bail out after suffering a critical hit

>>147585195

we all know what line of SPAA that would truly benefit

>>147585261
Why do people even have trouble killing SPAAs in the first place, they have fuck all for armor

>>147585330
Overpen meaning often your shells will pass straight through them, lack of spalling meaning the shell passing right through them does fuckall damage and magazines that never seem to blow up.

Besides that's not the problem with most SPAAs, the problem is that they have enough firepower to contend with tanks at their BR with fully auto fire and a far lower SP cost.

And this is why trying to spade every nazi tank is suffering, because the Pz.III exists.

There was a point where I faced T-34s that I couldn't penetrate from the front at less than 100 meters. It was a legitimate issue. There was also a time when I made a thousand golden eagles from playing T-34s, I almost lost because our team steamrolled through the Germans too quickly before I could get a kill.
