Yeah, and you couldn't magically see planes outside them when you're flying through thick clouds.

Hey guys! Just had this pop up on my screen, was wondering if any of you know what it is? Was it something that was added when I was away? What does it mean? Thank you in advance for your answers!
Heyyy, I uninstalled WT. I'm finally free!
>>149248671
that the uhu back there tho
>>149248891
That KV looks weird too, no idea what variant is that. Might be cool, I guess.I was hoping for Cold War Thunder ;_;
>>149248841

>>149248745
Probably something to do with the new event.

What did they mean by this?
>>149248945
>>149249034
either that or kv-220
either way, it's WoTshit and will probably be an event reward.
>>149248962
You'll see. I'm fucking done, unless they announce a return to big tank maps next patch.

It's a feature ))
Where the FUCK is the Tu-95

>>149250269
>modern german flag

heh
>>149250290
>Destroy a plane attacking a friendly Bomber
how exactly does this even work? Do I have to wait until the enemy landed a hit on our bomber? I mean, I got "bomber rescuer" many times before, but I cant imagine how to purposfully get it. If I'm escorting a bomber bro, the enemy will most likely attack me first. Or is it good enough to be close to a bomber? What happens if everybody wants to score this award? no bombers and/or shitty forced behavior happens
>>149250626
>What happens if everybody wants to score this award?
this your first farming event? wait until they hit you with the "kill 10 japanese bombers"
>>149250602
That really triggers me. I know why they cant use the real deal. But at least use the flag without the swastika (or have it be covert by the girl). Or even use a simple black/red/white flag. But thats just dumb
>>149250602
>modern japanese flag
>>149250689
Sadly not, no. I guess, I just keep being surprised by how shamelessly counter-fun and grindy they are designed.
Also:
>get x amount of kill assists in one day
>nobody dares to kill
Bravo gaijin
>>149250885
Isn't the flag with the rays just their war flag?
>>149250885
>>149250995
Yep, guy was being a retard, how rare on wtg!
So I'm new but can someone explain how the Pz4 F1 and Crusader Mk. II have the same battle rating?
Wow this event looks like it's going to be even worse than the one they had for the KV-2/Bong's P-38
>>149250689
>kill 10 japanese bombers
was gonna ask anyway, go japanese strategic and tactical bomber tree for the lulz y/n
thinking on a Italian collection too
My daily obj is to get 12 ground kills with an attacker.
Can't see a single attacker in the British tree, not even the Attacker is an attacker apparently. 57mm mossie isn't, 40mm typhoon isn't, etc.
Do strike fighters count or not? I'd test but I'm doing it in RB and don't want to waste my time.
if you've missed it, you can see all challenges already
https://warthunder.com/en/news/4156-calendar-operation-s-u-m-m-e-r/
I expect lots of anger from f7f farmers
>>149250885
it isn't even a flag, it's just a red circle with a white sheet of paper behind it.
>>149251748
Only good Jap bomber is the G8 because it's covered in cannons and can rape jet fighters, all the other ones are badly armed and don't even get good bombloads like the Bongs.
>>149251542
why shouldnt they?
>>149251542
for once I agree with Naziboo, only redeeming quality of Pz IV is that hit is more likely to one-shot crew.
>people still play grind thunder
hehhehhhehehheh
>>149251829
but it's anti-normie
>>149251784
>12 ground kills with an attacker
Well, it is very likely to get that in a single match. If you compare that with>>149250290
There is something weird going on
how much points do you average in one match? I usually lay on 900-1000
>>149251997
I think he's just talking about the warbonds tasks
>>149250602
They do that, and the modern Jap flag, because they think the Soviets won.
>tfw you aren't grinding shit for this event
feels good
>>149252216
oops
I've already got cancer from grinding this event.
Do they think this shit is actually fun?
>>149252476
Thats the only way to deal with it. I walked away from this many events ago.
I shouldnt have to spend almost a month of excessive wt grinding to get the rewards. It's just not worth some shitty premium plane
>>149252579
The shit that pisses me off about this task is that there's no way to do it intentionally.
It's also way easier to get arcade but has no multiplier for realistic.
>>149249843
>>Tanker tasks (while driving rank III to V ground vehicles)
>>>Destroy 50 aircraft in the “War in mid air” event.
it's another event with impossible challenges and shitty low energy rewards. i'm so glad they are wasting time and money adding shit to the game that no one wanted, ever asked for or is premium. What a fun game
>>149250626
>>149252782
Fucking this. Pure cancer.
Why not design it in a way it becomes fun?
>KV-220
>BR 5.3
>85mm cannon
>a month of grinding
Fw 189 could be cool for ec sim, but it has no cockpit. They are literally just putting """bad""" planes as event rewards to allow people to feel unique with their meme planes
fuck gaijin
>>149250290
>>149250626
>>149252864
At least the challenges seem so shitty, that I know to not even bother
How long until their challenges start having battle activity requirements?
>>149253368

>Gain 7 victories in random battles with 50% activity.
>Gain "Teamwork" award in random battles 7 times.
>Destroy 18 enemy fighters in random battles (х2 for RB, х3 for SB)

No she's not. She just has curly hair, which was extremely popular in the 40's amongst white women
How bad is this?It is almost spaded , only new MGs missing
so what was that thing they teased on twitter yesterday
>>149253978
You should know if you almost have it spaded you mong.
>>149254005
fucking nothing
>>149252194
3000-4000 RP, up to 6000 if battle went neatly.
Less than 2000 simply means I fucked up
>>149254060
I spaded it in Arcade , well over 2 years ago you little shit
>>149253671
but the VK is god tier in sim, you chucklefuck
>>149254114
Good for headons if you can hit them from 1km away.
>>149252579
what's event reward?
>>149254197
Premium memeshit, gun decorations, stickers and randomboxes.
Except for assists and SPAA kills, this doesn't seem too hard. But the few hard tasks are fucking awful.
The Uhu stats are ok
>>149254282
the issue is the number of days you need to play
each single task is "not that bad" if you've got a couple of hours to spare
who /THICC/ here?
>>149254368
good luck with that 25 teamwork achy in a couple of hours, szenpály
>>149254282
Biggest hurdle for me is the rank 3 requirement.
I do all these joke events with my premium lineup (5 british premiums all around 3.0 BR) just so I can get dosh while I do it.
But only 1 or 2 of those premiums is rank 3, the rest are rank 2.
>>149254510
sitting this entire event out tbqh
with a squad that doesn't sound too bad, though
>>149254510
25 teamwork is probably doable pretty easily in arcade if you just hug your squadmate and don't fire, alternatively squad upwith me ;))so I can get that squad wager.
>most produced variant of the Tigercat is premium
>>149254627
Not him , but who are you?
>>149254697
FREEmium :^)
>>149254114
I find spading in Arcade great after 1.59, due to bomber durability buff.
Shitters avoid bombers, because all they can do is tailing them and shooting fuselage, taking all heat coming from rear gunners, while stats queers see them as waste of time, because they could club 2-3 seals more in same time it takes to down Halifax or B-25.
This basically means I can pull stock plane out of hangar, climb for a bit and kill 3-5 bombers before someone will climb up to me.
>>149249843
I can't wait for people to start bragging about their new shitty vehicles in two months, where anyone else who isn't autistic wouldn't have spent 40-100 hours getting virtual vehicles that aren't even premium.
>>149254958
>Helldiver carries only 2 x 500 lbs
>"how the hell I gonna spade it with this little?"

Just looked at the summer event objectives.
Are any of the prizes remotely worth the daily grind?
German FW189 (no idea)
British Grant (lol a grant, dual turret memes)
F7F3 Tigercat (no idea)
KV220 (more Armor and better cannon, but 5.3 BR means get fucked into oblivion by tigers)
>>149255407
does Grant even have sight for 75 mm, or it's just oversized M2 medium?
Actually, fuck this event, I'm going to play something that's actually fun.
>>149254697
>the most produced variant of the hellcat still isn't even in the game
>>149255491
I think it's literally the same tank: but with a 37mm cannon on top. And also lower profile.
Not much, but it's better than nothing.
>>149255298
>mfw bomber notices me and tries to dive to get away

>>149255676
Nothing new. Only pre-D variants of P-51 in game are A-36 and Hispano variant
>>149256072
don't forget the esports variant

idk how a gtx 970 has frame dips with War Thunder lmao. What a shitty game.
>>149264883
Fucking what? If there's one good thing to say about this game, it's that it runs pretty well. I have EVERYTHING maxed out and I'm getting a solid 60 FPS (vsync'd) frames on a 780. There's something wrong with your machine, mang. Post speccy.
>>149264883
>tfw enjoying constant 60FPS with my GTX 960 on max graphic settings

He did not even smoke.
>>149265474
I get 60fps pretty constantly on 64/65 servers in Battlefield 4, I don't know how War Thunder gets dips, no matter what settings I put on.
>>149254130
>worse armour than the tier H1
>giant weekspots on the front cheeks
it's worse than the tiger 1. there's no point using it over the normal tiger
>>149265392
Bro is that your CPU usage outside the game?
>>149265474
It's dual channel so it's actually twice that. Double data rate means it's actually 1600 mhz.
>>149265516
My record is 42 hits on a Buffalo with the MC 202's guns. 42 hits all over the wings, tail, and of course a few useless hits to the fuselage too. No crits, no fires, no smoke, nothing big. He just kept flying, and at one point he simply stopped trying to dodge cause he knew my guns weren't doing shit.
>>149265932
Usage? It just gives you the processor speed and temps, not what the CPU/GPU is in use. I'm not playing anything right now.
>>149266563
doesn't even give correct processor speed unless you haven't overclocked
if you haven't overclocked your 2500k, what the fuck are you doing
>>149266705
I don't know how, and I'm an idiot, so I don't know how to do it. I've looked up how-to's, but even then I don't want to risk frying my CPU or something going wrong.
>>149266285
Did you load meatball or pasta ammunition?
>>149267021
Speaking of which, which belts are the best for Italian .30s and .50s?
Air Targets?
>>149266705
He also literally can't overclock. That's a P67 chipset.
>>149266775
There's your problem then. You seriously need to OC that 2500K. You literally cannot fuck things up unless you overvolt, but you won't need to do that to get out of the shitter.
Also speccy gives a shitty little usage graph next to the CPU, that's where I made my assumption from.
>>149266775
Overclocking is easy and safe these days, and unlocked processors are designed specifically to be overclocked. You have to try real hard to actually break them.
>>149267183
Your OC goal on stock cooling is 3.7ghz. See if you can hit that and keep things nice and cool (below max temp for your CPU), and you should be doing a lot better in the games you play.
>>149267180
Wait, I lied. The P67 supports it.
>>149267183
Are you sure that's not temperature?
>>149267302
thought so, was about to say my p8p67/2500k is OCing fine.
>>149267302
Yes I'm 75% sure.
>>149267370
Well I know I press DEL a few times during bootup, but I'm not sure where or how to mess with the settings. Maybe I can find a video with my specific CPU lol
what order should you do your trimming? im told you set your altitude then rpm first and then rudder, pitch and finally roll (if the plane has an aleron trim).
>>149267293
Should I overclock my GPU? Its stock max clock speed is 1040 mhz but I've seen benchmarks and stuff where it could get to 1100, I've never tried OCing it because I'm not sure a 0.05% increase is worth the extra temperature and fan noise. It's already pretty loud at full load
>>149267631
no your GPU is fine. I run War Thunder at max everything with a GTX 760 and it doesn't cry.
ACX fans are just loud, nothing more to say. I have EVGA ACX coolers as well. Focus on the CPU.

It handles War Thunder just fine, in fact I had to enable Vsync because it was doing like 110 fps at 1080p. But other games don't run so perfectly
This is my new favourite plane. It's so much fun to just hit a target of opportunity and then leave any pursuers in the dust.
>>149267860
Oh and also I'm not the other anon, I just jumped into the conversation. I can't even OC my CPU, it's an i5 4460

Fair enough. If it's not his CPU then perhaps it's his GPU drivers? Perhaps something in his system is overheating when the game is running hard?

Okay so I put my CPU or whatever to 37, it was at 33. On the biOS it read 3.70ghz, but when I run Speccy it still says 3.30GHz.
Did I fuck it up or?
>>149269087
I put Adjust CPU Ratio - 37 from 33
Adjust CPU Ratio in OS - Enabled from Disabled
Internal PLL Overvoltage - Enabled from Disabled
that's all I changed.
>>149269087
speccy lies, download CPU-Z if you want to make sure you did it right.
>>149269087
sometimes speccy doesn't read things right. also did you make sure to save your settings on exiting bios?
>>149269087
You don't use speccy to run diagnostics. You use some other program like CPU-Z or whatever.
>>149269290
Yes.
>>149269223

Core Speed - 3691.19MHz
I assume that's what I was looking for?
>>149269221
disable PLL overvoltage unless you are unstable at that speed. Try not to mess with settings having the word "voltage" in them, as that stuff CAN damage your hardware.>>149269376

>>149269415

>>149269017
I miss the old events desu
"get 10 wins today to win 400 shekels" or "kill 1000 planes in arcade over the course of two weeks to get a premo plane" is better than the "complete a bunch of bullshit tasks every day for a month to get a unique roundel" shit we get nowadays
>>149269559
yes disable PLL overvoltage and run your system for a while. If you start getting weird crashes enable it and see if that helps. Also make sure you are monitoring your temps and not overheating. Your CPU should not go over 95C, an that's hot as shit, so you're probably OK.
>/wtg/ - overclocking edition
>>149269559
You'll also want to get prime95 and make sure you don't overheat. You'll also want to run it for a bit to make sure you're stable.
The clapper premium plane actually looks pretty cool, too bad ill never get it.
You can tell Gaijin made this event so jewish just by the fact that they said you can also use GE to buy the tasks you missed which is what they want most people to do. Gaijin has fallen as a company and is getting worse each year. We used to have weekly discounts back when the game was just taling off and into the first years.
>>149269870
it's fun to give advice to a guy who doesn't realize he has one of the all-time best OCing CPUs in his rig yet, the advice to give is so easy!
>>149269559
consider getting a new cooler, something cheap like a 212 evo will be able to get you to 4.5 GHz. That puts you around the level of stock speeds of new CPUs.
>>149269614
doesn't getting 500 RB kills sound like so much, though?( having it split up in many small bits is faster ))
>>149269978
Yeah no kidding. I have a 6700k and I kinda wish I had a 2600k in another box just for overclocking epeen.
>>149270056
It wasn't that bad because sim had a 3x multiplier so you could fuck around in a tiffy 1b and get it within a week
>>149270129
provide 2 separate sources proving it was faster ((((
>>149270056
Well I don't remember the RB and SB requirements for that summer event I mentioned but I think for the British plane (premo Typhoon) you had to do 1000 or something like that. It was easy and quick with the Beaufighter VIc, that thing is a monster in arcade because quad 20 mm cannons obliterate anything in head-ons and arcade is head-on central
To get the D-13 I think you had to get 1200 kills
>>149269835
Alright, thanks. I didn't push it up by a lot, I do think it should handle a .4 easily.. But who knows.
>>149270056
I could probably use a new everything except GPU/RAM, but I don't have the money to spare.

What is your voltage right now
>>149270708
let us know if it improves your game experience.
>>149271726
I've already seen some increase in Squad, which would dip to the lower end of 30-40's. Now it only goes below 50's. (Even though it's horrifically optimized).
>>149271138
Core Voltage - 1.280 V
>>149271869
Pretty reasonable voltage there. I thought you meant 0.4 on top of the 1.1 ish volts it has at stock. 1.5V is a ton.
Thoughts on operation SUMMER?
I just quickly read the description and rewards and it doesn't seem kikey at all. What am I missing?
That tigercat looks nice too.
>>149271869
you can probably squeeze more out of it without raising the voltage
>>149272160
What temps does that run at? I ran a pretty intensive test and it didn't seem to go higher than 50c
So hows that Tu-95?
Some questions:
- how to defeat Pz IVs?
- are there any tanks within the Hellcat's tier range it cannot frontally penetrate under ~300m?
- What is the most accurate tank in the game?
>>149272109
Yeah not jew at all, just have to grind an entire month and not miss more than 4 tasks to get the relevant plane. Both tanks are a piece of shit also bad BR, bad guns.
The nazi plane maybe good but tugercat looks better and you can only get one or the other.
>>149272109
>>149272486
I use Intel Burn Test, so I can't give a fair comparison to your temps. It gets hot.
You may not want to go as high as 4.5 with the stock cooler, but you can probably go above 3.7.
>>149273007

70-75 deg C max under "natural" pressure, I should add.

>>149274035
>hey look how hard I can pee
>>149274313
>>149274035
it's not bad. I could get a better cooler, but it would make literally no practical difference,
>>149274035
if it runs that cool you can get more performance out of it by overclocking.
>assists for the event achievement don't track
>>149273136
Shit mang, it's too hot for those temps this time of year. Maybe during the winter I'll turn it up a bit more.
>>149276580
how can something be too hot for one season but not for another

Uh , probably not , maybe the IS-2
>What is the most accuate tank in the game

I dunno
>>149277859
my big problem with killing IV's isn't penetrating them, it's killing enough of the crew to finish it. Disabling their gun never seems to work, and with a relatively high traverse, I figure I just need to figure out where to shoot to kill all their dudes in 1 or 2 shots.
>only tier III-V vehicles count towards the challenges
>I only have a few tier II vehicles
Welp, I ain't getting shit.
Probably for the best though, I have classes coming up soon and need to focus on them.
>>149278370
Tigercat is the only worthwhile one
>>149278224

I actually have no trouble ammo-racking them. It's that they stay alive for those few seconds while they're burning up and get me back.

I'm not the one who got tricked by slavs. If literal slavs can outsmart you, what does that make you?
>>149284909
chack queenes. There's A LOT more planes than tanks waiting.
Chacked event from both sides, tanks are fucked, because lead markers often don't appear untill you get literally strafed, and sometimes at all, while any bomber is pretty much guaranteed a kill by dumping bombs in low angle diving
Also what's with spawn system? Some players have airspawn, some start on airfield, and there seem to be no consistency who gets what
>>149285185

What's your ingame name so we can all laugh at you?
This AA vs planes game mode is actually fun.
They do make a RB version tho without markers or lead circles
>>149285185
oh, then it's simple. Go fast, flank when you know where enemy is, don't expect to survive hit from anything, even fighters will fuck you up. Crew is so tightly packed, you'll be oneshotted a lot.
Don't use APCR untill you have to. It does next to no damage, and gets fucked by angle more than APCBC.

theoretically you should be able to penetrate anything with apcr, in practice it's ricochets as shit and is no damage
panthers, tigers, kv, is, t-34 etc all can bounce your shells depending on where you shoot them;
hellcat literally has the same gun as wolverine, and the only difference its it also has shitty apcr but still better shooting stock

the M4A2 76 W should be 4.7
M4A3 76 W should be 5.0
nobody can refute this

>US teams are mostly better players
hahaha oh wow
>>149318709
I agree.
USA tank teams are like what German teams were just before USA tanks were released. You remember how bad they were, and how much they complained?
I guess in this case, USA tank players actually have something to be assmad about, whereas the German players were just bad.

It's not worth a solid month of grind for a heavy fighter or a meme tank. Just do the reasonable ones and get the Fw 189.

>>149321059

I might drop in for the easy ones, that way maybe I can scrounge up one pin up decal.
>>149321794
In general or the War in Mid Air plane challenge? Because that one was easy.
Can't speak for the rest of them because I don't have a single nation in rank III planes (Very close though)
Also shooting down anyone in a Flakpanzer in that event is oddly satisfying.
>>149321794
If you go in the chat you can find groups looking for low-tier arcade squads, which makes it really easy. Just squid up with three randoms using your US planes, as the .50s make it easy to hit without killing, which is the key to supporting fire.
"rescuer" is broken and only counts 1 per game so I didn't bother with it.

post 2 separate sources proving pilots got to choose their own pin-ups
Looking at the aircraft achievements, I'm thinking the single most difficult one is going to be "7 battles >75% activity". Fuck battle activity, nobody knows how it's fucking calculated and it never seems to be representative of what actually happened in-game.
The other one that will be really annoying is 10 victories in "floats", as floats is an arcade event so your individual skill has almost no effect on whether you win or lose.
Then the rest should be pretty easy, although a lot of them will need to be done in arcade to finish them quickest.

Ebin gif helmet
>it's a ground-battle at night episode
>>149355795
I only spaded it because I wanted the full ground attack payload. As CAS, it's alright. As a fighter, the D5 is bad. Stick to the D30, it has a better climb rate, its more stable, and it has a better engine and goes much faster than the D5. Can also reliably reach and stay at ~500mph in a dive. This coupled with the great climb rate makes it a beast. Just be patient with both of the planes. And never turn fight.

>>149360312

>>149360437
It is when you compare it to the player kills.
Also what's up with those winrates?
>>149360541
I have no idea how K/D for an average player looks in arcade.
I would guess it could also be from using the p47s for cas, but I don't know if that's possible in arcade.
no clue what's up with the winrates. Extremely skilled!
>tfw shit at tanks
>>149360202
arcade has respawn and shorter quenes. This alone makes it superior to RB for many people.
>>149360312
most common battle modes in arcade are 3 variations of air support for ground units. Win is decided by who can wipe out enemy ground units, while preventing enemy from doing same to yours. It can be also achieved by wiping enemy air force, but with each player having 5+ lifes, it doesn't happen too often.
So basically, guns win duels, bombs win battles.

1:1? I mean, if someone dies, someone gets kill.
P-47 K/D for arcade is nothing short of attricious. I know planes that can't turn effectively don't get jack in this mode, while every low-alt fighter turn into UFO, but I still find 0.7 K/D suprising
>>149362773
average for a single plane, like a p47, isn't going to be 1:1
there are also going to be players who gain way more or less than 1 kill per life, so average overall probably isn't 1:1 either
>>149362773

Do you really think that WT's "realistic" and "simulator" modes are in ANY way realistic or sim-like? Because it is not, never was, and due to the way it (everything) is set up also never will be.
You know, there's a reason why WT and World of Anything are specifically banned by name from the /simg/, /vg/'s "simulation general".
If you are not playing WT for the arcade-y nature of things, and ease of use, you are doing it wrong.

>>149364329
Well - surely there is an "in-between". It's just that WT isn't that.
If you want to call it "realistic" or "simulator", then it's gotta be that "begotten imax experience" with all the bells and whistles. WT, is in fact "dora learns abc" for the most part. Consider the following:
To play AB semi-competently, you need ~10 Buttons
WASD, duh, right and left mouse, shift, and occasionally F, 5 and 6 to repair, extinguish fires, and order arty. Thats about it. Totally realistic modelling of a tank, would you not agree? No of course not, and rightfully so, since I was sarcastic.
Now RB/SB does what exactly to make the whole thing more realistic?
>no respawn (wew lad)
>less aiming indicators (because giving the player less info surely makes the game more realistic? lets not get into that too far...)
>flight model is somewhat more sophisticated - as in, stalls, spins, engine heat management, and fuel are things to be aware of - but is the FM actually a physics-based flight model, or is it an XML file that says "plane X can turn Y degrees per second at speed Z and altitude A"?
>gear and flaps for planes! weeeee! 2 more buttons. Also a R3 mechanic - when you land, press F to display a timer and get a new plane when the countdown reaches zero.
>uh planes have cockpits now, too, right? most of them anyway?
Feel free to add to that list - I will admit that I am not all too very knowledgeable about those features because (apparently like many people) I play arcade only, and I try not to autism out too much over a game that ultimately isn't worth autisming out overI have actual sims for that

I exclusively play RB because I don't like to be spotted and hit from 3 km thanks to the giant floating red text over my tank and the shell drop indicator
>>149367972
the best map is the Normandy one in tank RB when one of the teams airbase is five aircraft carriers. Don't have a naval airplane? Though fucking luck.

Nah, it's just a text to speech voice that reads it out.

That's why you don't belly land. You approach at barely above stall speed with full flaps.

Eventually, German pilots developed new combat tactics to counter Allied bombers' defenses. Me 262s, equipped with up to 24 unguided folding-fin R4M rockets — twelve in each of two underwing racks, outboard of the engine nacelle — approached from the side of a bomber formation, where their silhouettes were widest, and while still out of range of the bombers' machine guns, fired a salvo of rockets with strongly brisant Hexogen-filled warheads, exactly the same explosive in the shells fired by the Me 262A's quartet of MK 108 cannon. One or two of these rockets could down even the famously rugged B-17 Flying Fortress,[47] from the "metal-shattering" brisant effect of the R4M rockets' explosive warheads, weighing only 520 g (18 oz) per projectile out of a total launch weight of 4 kg (8.8 lb).

speaking of F2P games, how come people don't play Heroes and Generals more? I checked some gameplay of it and it has plenty of things I wish were in WT, but aren't

>has combined arms too, same as GF RB/SIM in WT
I can see some bad things form gameplay, but considering people play WT, I'd have though H&G would be, dunno, slightly more popular. Reviews kinda tell a story WT is having/will get, but is the game really dead as fuck?
Also, how many players does WT have online on average with this shitty personal hell grindfest event? Did it at least hit 60k now or is it still barely above 50k

Not news.

There is no violence in War Thunder. Taking a burst of high explosive 20 mm shells to the face only makes you unconscious.
>>149379278
Why does this keep happening? Are tanks usually deployed without soft support to warn them of an incoming missile, or just these guys?
>>149379303
I googled "Germany considering a ban on violent games" and there's plenty of articles about it, they just need to say something to appear they are actually doing something.

I don't get either of them, sure there are some interesting tanks/airplanes but since France was out of the war 1940 and Italian military equipment was outclassed by 1941. So unless they include meme prototypes/very limited production lines a la WoT I think there is going to be a jump between early war to post war
>>149380851

What IRC does everyone lurk now?
>>149379503
support can't really "warn" of incomming missile, it's small object moving as speed of sound. At best they can detect launch, but likely tank will get hit before crew reacts.
Task of rsupport is to not find yourself in such situation to begin with.
That's the trick in combined arms warfare. Types of arms cooperate to cover for each other's weaknesses.
Recon tells you where to expect enemy, so you know where to look, and where to have gun and frontal armor pointed to.
Using that knowledge, move into position using cover and concealment as much as you can. Avoid open spaces when you can help it. Use infantry in areas that provide enough concealment for them to avoid combat. Use it to sneak up to enemy, to have best understanding of situation, looking for ambushes while on it.
Someone sees launcher, something like launcher, or place that looks like good position to place launcher? Hit it with artillery, mortars, smoke with MG fire. Move foward supressing enemy that may, or may not to be there. Don't stick out, use terrain to your advantage untill enemy is soften-up enough to not be able to fight back. As you advance mech infantry with ATGM vehicles secures your flanks, preparing little slice of hell to anyone trying to flank you.
It's slow, methodical work, but that "take no chances" attitude has its beauty
>>149379503
1. They are arabs.
2. Tows are hard to see, they don't use smoke poweder to propel themselves.

3. poor tonkists they never see the red ball of doom ;_;
>>149379503
>Are tanks usually deployed without soft support to warn them of an incoming missile
In Arab countries there's this retarded idea of warfare that completely denies combined arms. Tanks fight city streets with little to no infantry support. Planes do random strikes instead of grinding away the opposition in preparation for attack. Engineers and attacking troops don't work together, usually meaning that minefields, man-made barriers and such are very effective in slowing, or atleast diverting the attacking force in the way that is wanted.
Combined arms have never been trained in the middle east, and probably won't for many, many years.
>>149381381

T-72s are from the 70s m8. A modern T-90A can take a hit from a TOW or if the crew is not retarded it can deflect the TOW upward to miss them.
