Chaika. She even got ramjets.

If BRs were mostly decided based on the vehicle's operational date of entry, which countries would benefit the most? And which would suffer the most?

>>158824463
I think it was the Gladiator.

Even killed Bf 110s over Iraq.

>>158824720
Germany, probably claps or teebs.

>>158824720
I want to say Germany would benefit the most but then I remembered that this BR system would be unable to accommodate aircraft which didn't exist and thus the entire napkinwaffe meme army would get removed. I guess they'd both benefit the most from getting real vehicles down-tiered, but they'd also suffer the most from getting their imaginary vehicles removed.

>>158825285
with date of entry Br you wouldnt really need napkinfwaffes

where can i check the healthpoints of bombing targets for each mode?

>>158824824
CR.42 was slightly faster
Gladiator had 50 cal tho

>>158824720
BR in arcade is garbage
probably affected by the amount of headon shitters
only explanation for the sea hurricane being 4.0 is the 20mm cannons, it doesnt perform as well as any other aircraft of BR 4.0

>>158820007
Generally yes
It's still insanely effective against anything with less than a flat 100mm plat or an angled 45mm plate
Deletes M41a1s, T-92s, most of Tier V with not problem

sooooo where can i check the ones for SB ? and tank Simulator mixed event

>>158824720
Air? Germany
Ground? T1 teebs, T2 Soviets, T3-T4 Germany.
T5 it would be either Soviets (time travelling ammo), or Americans (historical dates for ammo)

>>158826321
AFAIK SB uses same values ar RB.
Health is different for AB, because of mid-air bomb respawn.

>>158826321

>>158829387

A the same time though, the IV/70(A) has a lower br then the one in the main tree.

The one in the main tree will get into 6.3 games more often then you would think. 6.3 br is pretty popular. IS-2 and T-44 type games

>>158829623
IS-2 is 6.0 and T-44 is unplayed because its shit.

why did people have so much trouble taking down planes in ww2 if all they need to do is fire a few shots at their tail and watch them fall to the ground?

because that's what this fucking game is telling me

is the G5N the hardest aircraft to land in this game? i gave it a few tries in SB but the tail always touches the ground no matter what (it has no tail wheel)

>>158830327
land faster then?

>>158830271
>trying to find an accurate representation of WW2 in war thunder
>>158830386
ok that could be the problem i guess
but then the tail could still go down if i brake

>>158830327
I clearly see a tail wheel in that picture.

>>158830419
>but then the tail could still go down if i brake
how?

>>158830271
Because WWII pilots didn't sit in a computer chair pointing their mouse at pixels on a screen to get a kill, you fucking autist.

>>158829623
The (V) one can easily take on anything it encounters even if it gets uptiered. I use it a lot and I'm rarely seeing 6.3 games.

>>158830271
IRL WW2 planes didn't have fly-by-wire.
Also having one and only life to spare makes most people care more about staying alive, than getting kill

>2 410s collide in the first second of the match
>"Excellent" from the whole team

>>158830271
Because you're cold and you haven't slept well and you're not eating well and it's not very comfy in your hard seat in your cramped cockpit and your CO is an asshole and your best friend died a few days ago.

>>158830442
its not a wheel
even if it was, when the tail goes down it wouldn't touch the ground due to the inclination

did tanks in real life reverse after every shot to hide like little bitches while reloading? or use the geography to shoot from behind a mountain so that the target couldnt even see the tank

>>158831572
They would go hull down when presented with a chance, but no, they normally would not go full peek-a-boo.

grind rams up massively at tier 3, becoems suicide inducing at tier 4.

Of course the grind can be sped up with premium )))))

Flight stick is only needed for sim battles, do not use it for realistic or arcade.

its lost its edge since the flaktruck was added. before that, you tank was big enough to survive a few penetrating shots. with the 88, 1 well placed shot can kill it

To be honest fundamental, unsolved mechanical flaws and other inherent problems should probably be modeled. This is the single most bullshit aspect of the game behind the complete lack of optics and crew ergonomics being modeled. These omissions result in the game caring more about armor and guns than anything else. You have piles of steaming shit like the T-34, Panther, and Tiger 105 in its current configuration depicted as wonder weapons when in reality they barely worked.

>>158851130
Yeah basically. The Cyrillic keyboard they use doesn't have easy access to a : key so they just do parentheses. More of them means happier or sadder.

>>158851378
>muh trusty sherman
should have made the game ))))

>>158851378
I only agree with the optics part. I want realistic optics.

So since yesterday was America day I was running them all day and got my tank tree down to the Shermans.

How do people get shit on so hard in these things? All you have to do is not be a complete retard and you'll be fine.

>>158851378
How can you take crew's ergonomic in account in this game? Putting some kind of moral which once lowered, can increase reload time or reduce driving efficiency?

I just got the second La7. It's my first plane above a BR of 5.0. What should I expect?

>>158850285
thanks, that's helpful
any particular Fw 190 I shoud avoid? Any "must have" ones? I went through most of German tree with 109 variants

>>158851774
I personally like the A-1, A-5/U2 and D-9 the best. Avoid F-8 unless you play ground forces and Ta 152 H-1.
If you can't aim for shit you might like the more heavily armed ones better.

>>158851730
Worse mm than the regular La-7, slightly better performance

>>158850927
I bought the GE and premium today.

>>158851664
>>158851715

Crew ergonomics were a factor in all kinds of shit like the rate at which tanks could go from spotting targets to engaging them(reduce turret traverse or add a delay to mouse movements), reload rate(this is modeled, but Gaijin likes to downplay it for Russian and to some extent German tanks), etc.

Then there's the fact that some German and Russian viewports are literally holes in the armor that could be penetrated by lucky machine gun fire but are modeled as solid plates in game.

>>158851715
by simply lowering crew skills with time, slighly when driving and strongly during actual combat.
But more important feature, realism wise, would be function for crewmen to be stunned (completely unresponsive for few seconds, and later debuffed) when armor is penetrated. Stun effect would depend on penetrator energy / warhead size, internal volume of crew compartement and fatigue of crewmen. More volume = less overpressure. More crew skills = quicker recover stun

>>158852272
>>158852325
I think you need to draw a line. Having realsitic game is cool and all but when you get too technical it stops becoming fun which will lead to a huge part of fanbase leaving. A lot of people play on arcade.

>>158852579

You're just reducing the stats of the tanks slightly to better fit reality. Gaijin does this shit all the time.

>>158850493

In arcade, you get 2 kills to jump into a randomly chosen attacker, and 3 kills to get into a random bomber. You get a 45 second period where you drop bongs, then the game returns you to your tank.

Thanks a lot, such a shame i play german tanks and burger planes. I often get 6+ kill streaks. Oh well have to start playing sauerkraut planes.

killstreaks
every few minutes game starts "event" and spawns planes close to playable map.
You can join event by pressing buttons 6, 7 8 (or 7, 8 9) to get in fighter/striker/bomber, when their icons are not greyed out
To join event you need required number of kills. Assists count too I think.

Alos all bombs in Arcade use 10s delay fuzes, so they're not very effective unless players are immobilized, or dumb

Still wondering why they went with the Japanese hijacked B-17 and not the normal American one.

>t. im superior to you becasue i play harder mode in the game made for autists

Gaijin could greatly improve this game by dumping all the generic cap the flag game modes and make some modes that are actually interesting.

It's not even necessary for the game modes to be completely original, they could just copy rush, conquest and chainlink from battlefield and I wouldn't give a shit.

Bong ones, slav ones, and some neat user-made camos on planes.
