>>163664350
no, I'm pretty sure there's a guide on how to install it correctly now

>>163664425
its me 262 at 6.7, so its reasonable most likely.
Dunno about type 62, average slav doesnt knwo how to play a tank that has no armor

Also its not that hard to grind both since you got 2 days to finish tasks

>historical context

Brits didn't give a fuck about the historical value of any military equipment they had or seized. They are too stupid to think of the historical significance of something like that even just 10 years in the future. This goes for most countries. The only nation I can think of that breaks this pattern is American vehicles in American ownership.

Why the fuck do they make these horribly unbalanced events the only way to complete the christmas grind

>>163671683

I don't have it off-hand, but some of the T1 and M6 tanks that were produced wound up touring the US to do destroy cars and other goofy chest-beating American stuff in shows to drum up support for War Bonds before being scrapped. Thankfully, we usually properly hold onto our shit or at least some rusted hull is somewhere in some storage area.

Russia usually gets it right too, they tend to have one make of everything they've ever made (and not subsequently lost) hiding SOMEWHERE. I can't say Brits are the worst when Japan exists, though.

full team of 5.7 vs fullteam of 6.7 is just stupid and i would leave before even spawning...i guess thats why they dont show it

>>163674253
In arcade you can see both vehicle deployed, and 3 top vehicles in player's lineup, so I think it's more so you don't know what kind of vehicle expect. For example if enemy has Leopards or Hellcats, you'll expect them to flank cap or your spawn ASAP. If you knew enemy has multiple IT-1s, you'd pay attention to any position where it can launch without being visible etc

Same thing it's ever been. Russian tanks overperform in every department, Naziboos flock to the Tiger II, USA sucks in most places other than T-29 and superb light tanks, Brits suck until mid Tier IV.

People find Jap tanks bad, but they actual require abit of skill to use due to the trade-offs. For example, their shells lack penetration at range, but once you do pen, they nuke your target. They have lighter armour which does a surprisingly decent job of memeing shots. They do powered turns pretty well, but move like shit in a neutral pivot. Objectively bad things are the slow as shit turret traverse speed that makes it reminiscent of playing a casemate TD, and every Jap tank (minus the scout and the M24 and Sherman) lack coax machine guns, until T4.

Do you guys think premium is worth getting? Currently going to start Tier IV research on both Germany and Russia, and getting 1-1.4k vechicle RP/match is a bit low for Tiger 2, T44 etc..

We discussed it the other day, but this piece of shit seriously has to get removed from the game. Shot the fucking ammobox 3 times with the BR-350(150g TNT) and all it did was to turn slight orange. Only success I've had is to shoot the HE/HEAT from the SU-122

>>163681634
why would you ?

>>163681669
Ah, will it increase the vechicle RP by 100% per match? Seems a bit unclear on the website

>>163681724
I enjoy playing the German 5.7 lineup at the moment, been playing it for a pretty long while now though. So I was thinking premium was better vs tailsman and another "pretty long while". Would also benafit my Soviet lineup

Did I miss the first task of the event?

>>163681912
Yes, 100% increased RP and some other things

>>163681920
ya, but you can always buy em))))

there are 12 tasks total, u need 10

>>163681920
yes
doesn't matter, there's 12 and you need 10 for the top vehicles

>>163681990
Awesome! Will try a week first and see how well it does.

>>163682045
Buy a year, it's worth it. The grind past T3 is unbearable even for planes without it.

>>163682102
The problem is that I can only play every other week :/
Would loose half of the time from that

Why do I have to keep re-choosing my ammo belts with the start of each match?? It never did that before! It's a nuisance.

Does the 262 A-2 have 100 RPG?

>>163682102
This. If you know you're going to keep playing, buy it now when it is half off. It makes the game so much bearable when you are grinding t4 and t5 vehicles.

>>163682380
Is the difference like night and day? Might get 1 year even though I won't always be able to play if it's that worth it

>>163682529
In my opinion, it is. I almost always have premium lol

If only the tanks at its BR had shrapnel shells other than the KV-1 L-11 and the SMK, I don't think the T-34-76s get shrap.

How are you supposed to get "3 wins in a row when ATLEAST every 1-2 team you end up in is extremly autistic? I'm talking T34-85s turning their sides to 5 enemies to snipe with their -5 dperession on a hill and people who have ONE tank in the BR and the rest low-tier shit

Whats your secret?

>>163691037
I'm buying out 6 of the tank tasks and procrastinating on them for later.

I go with Ruskies on the tank event. If your last vehicle is a plane, it counts as plane win. Getting 2017 points is easy, you need to do it three times. Then I did the 3 victories in a row, you can also do 10 victories if you're unlucky. Finally, since ground kills in planes count for the 30 kills, you get 15 total player kills. Rinse and repeat for the other day, you can finish it in about 1-2 hours of playing.

My lineup is T-34/1940, 25mm GAZ AA, Yak-1, IL-2 1941 and T-34/1941. The Stukas are very easy to kill with both planes, and you can use tanks to grind out score if you want.

Spaced armor/mesh armor is literally armor against shaped charges.

>>163698935
>>163699017
There is a reason why german shurtzen don't work very well against HEAT rounds in WT.
It's because they are to close to the hull.

I read somewhere that the distance between hull and the add-on should be around 10 times the diameter of the HEAT round to properly counter-act the jet of copper.

Otherwise, if the spacing is too small, the jet might even have an enhanced effect as it has additional time to form properly travelling in the gap.

I'd say the mesh is another case of sand bags and concrete armor on tanks. It's placebo.

>>163699376
>There is a reason why german shurtzen don't work very well against HEAT rounds in WT
because HEAT is modeled as a kinetic penetrator you dense fuck
proof?
I can get shot in the rear of my IS-3 with HEATFS, and the round goes through my transmission engine block, and through the 20mm firewall into the crew compartment.

>>163699376
Schürzen is designed to protect against AT rifles, not spaced charges. Fuck's sake you have no idea what you're talking about.

>>163699535
>because HEAT is modeled as a kinetic penetrator you dense fuck

Here is why you are so full of shit:
Shurtzen weren't made to counteract against HEAT rounds, it was there to offer additional protection against russian AT rifles.

My point was that it wouldn't be that effective even if it was properly modelled because of how supposedly HEAT works, as I said in my post.

IF you could stop sperging out for a moment, because I am pretty sure you're the same autists that complains about this every single time, you'd see that what you are saying is completely besides the point.

>"The effects of the new tank gun were excellent: coupled with a new pointed AP shell, it could penetrate the front of a Panther at 1400 meters, and the front of a Tiger at 1800 meters. The tank was accepted under the index IS-122. Production IS-122s differed from the trial version by a D-25T gun with a horizontal semi-automatic sliding breech, which increased the rate of fire. Modifications to increase the rate of fire were carried out throughout the tank's life. "I had a habit of following tanks to the front lines," remembered Kotin in a 1977 interview with Voyenniy Vestnik. "I don't ride them into battle, but I examine the aftermath. ... I remember we tested an IS. The shell was heavy, the loaders complained that loading takes too long. I climbed into a tank, tried to lift a shell, and confirmed that it was very heavy. I needed to do something. The [Kirov] factory quickly developed a special mechanism for loading shells into the breech." Kotin's device seems to have been effective. In a letter to the Commissar of Armament Ustinov, concerning re-armament of the IS tank with a 100 mm gun, the engineers wrote "We consider it imperative that the D-25T remain in the IS-2. Latest trials at the ANIOP resulted in a rate of fire of 4-6 rounds per minute"
Imagine the rage if they implemented an historically accurate autoloader for the IS-2(mod 44 I guess)

I can play on max on my laptop at 1360x768 and get 45-60FPS in the hanger (depends on the day because Gaijin can't into hanger UI) and 50-80FPS in Air. 30-45FPS in tanks.

>>163702774
I got mine today.

it's fucking amazing for DCS

>>163703026
It's the 262 with bombs. I don't think it's premium.

>>163703026
That's what the Sturmvogel is.
Me 262 A-2a
>>163703129
Why shouldn't it be? There already are premium event jet planes.

>>163703001
But it's not premium, just hidden,

>>163703235
le semantics face

>>163703189
I'm trying to find anything that states the 174 is premium with boosts, but I'm finding nothing. It's just a special event plane. The Po-2 isn't premium. In fact Im pretty sure I got a talisman for it from the roulette shit.

>>163703456
It isn't a premium, nor is the sturmvogel

>>163703456
La-174 was in the research spot for one day only. It's like a removed plane.

>tfw have both german and russian tanks fully grinded out so I can always be on the side with the advantage

>>163702075
Has anyone made a suggestion on the forums? They need to know

>>163703782
pretty sure it's been done many times
but gaijin's gotta make sure the D-25T tanks are balans))))))))))))))))))
seriously though, that fucked reload fucks everything over short of the IS-2

>>163702742
I think I had kit model of that thing. Could not balance it properly, though, and it would always sit on tail

>>163704091
I can't find any thread about it(except for a old one). It says "4-6 shots a minute", so why not make the reload 15 sec?

>>163692510
Ignore that other guy, all the camo and decals option are a complete money-grabbing rip-off.

im the only constant

>>163704228
the reload shouldn't be 15 sec
it should be, as I've said a billion times, the reload that the ISU-122S has
