So the F2 Sabre gets the same guns as the F-5?
>>170690778
Tiger's guns are a newer model, but generally yes.
>>170690917
And let me guess, the nazis don't get anything that has the autocannons those guns were based on? Not even a paper jet like the 262HG?
Buying bushes is literally cheating
>>170691024
Why should they? That jet never existed off paper and the guns never saw combat. That's why they get the CL-13 instead.
>>170691024
Nope. No BRRRRRRT for nazis. Unless they get the German version of the Fiat G.91. I wouldn't hold my breath though. It'll probably be a spaghetti exclusive.
>>170691219
>the thinks there will ever be pasta outside the yuro axis tree
>>170691219
The F2 sabres guns aren't that good, it has too little ammo for how fast it fires and the guns jam instantly unless fired in very short bursts. Guns on the hunter are much better, and even hispanos are better in some respects.

Why are Spitfires hated by /wtg/ so much?
I only ever play Ground Forces so I'm not that well known when it comes to the air.
>RU 251 is premium
Well, time to delete this game, any hope for germans ever capping points in realistic battles is now utterly fucking dead.
>>170713714
>germans
>knowing how to play unarmored tanks
it would be like having your team full of hellcats, only worse, because HEAT-FS can't oneshot
>>170713482
Because players don't know how to sideclimb or boom and zoom so they get upset when they get killed by a slow plane that can't dive for shit but is ok at turning
>>170691072
It's not cheating if it's allowed in the rules :^)

>stb1
Very good brawl tank with nice ufp and lfp able to bounce off t54 aphe and such. If it gets stabilizer this thing will be a beast
>type 74
Has shittier gun depression, reverse speed and no hull armor compared to stb1 but instead has 400mm gun mantlet. If type 74 gets stabilizer and stb1 wont, then 74 will easily be better than stb1. If both get stabilizer than stb1 takes the crown over 74.
>apc atgm
If i recall correctly this will only have about 54m/s velocity and wasd aim...also looks like it cant even shoot point blank. This will likely be the worst atgm of them all, even worse than swingfire.

is gaijin trying to tell me something ?
>>170720039
depends on country, it means round used for target practice, round used for learning how to operate a weapon, or a dummy meant to tech you how to handle weapon before they goive you something with powder charge.
either way, it's the cheapest round you can make to be used that way: inert slug with tracer, inert slug, or plastic slug with empty case.
Some are more subtle, for example training grenade for Panzerfaust 3, is grenade-shaped gun firing tracer round. Much cheaper than using actual grenade.
Anycase, these ar NOT meant to be used in combat
>>170721121
Are they cumulative?
>>170721252
))))))
>>170720061
There ya fucking go:
>In 1935 the .303 O Mark 1 Observing round was introduced for use in machine guns. The bullet to this round was designed to break up with a puff of smoke on impact with a target or the ground. It was intended as a training aid only, for the observation of long range shooting where accuracy of fire was not always easily defined, even if tracer ammunition was used. The later Mark 6 and 7 incendiary rounds could also be used in this role if required.
>>170720947
so wasd?
>>170721632
Yes.
>>170721632
yes
a very slow wasd
>>170721446
it's about machinegun, we are talking about autocannons
>>170721632
literally nothing wrong with wasd, only draw back is just moving targets at much longer ranges
>>170721664
>>170721684

Point it at them and open fire at 1200m, fiddies can hit an oncoming plane at that distance. Any smart player will abort the pass and change his approach angle, while a retard will give you enough time to correct your aim and give him hell.
>>170733758
It's similar to it, but better at everything, especially higher altitude performance, it doesn't shit itself like the FN.

Guys how do I into realistic battles
it takes me 10 minutes to get to altitude, then another 10 to get to the battle, followed by me getting killed in a single burst

>>170738790
>car doors
>>170738804
Well you're not giving us a lot of info. What nation are you playing? What plane? Do you sideclimb or climb directly to the enemy?
Generally in terms of shooting shit you should fly up to at least 0.5km distance and start shooting in bursts. In an ideal world you should kill them when the distance is =<0.35km
>>170736435
anyone?
>>170738561
That's pretty interesting. Thanks anon.
>>170738941
Play germany mostly, bf109 G2 is my favorite right now because gramps flew one
Tried both side climbing and climbing directly, both end with the same result, one just takes longer
I try to BnZ like people tell me the 109 should be used for, but then I get in some hits, dont get a kill and then Im shot down on the way back up
>>170737838
fuck they changed them?
only in dev server for now right?
Somebody got the kv 220 supercharger sound ??
>>170738804
RB is slow-paced in general
They should change the K-2's name to KV-420 with the KV meaning Klit Vrecker
xD
>>170739156
In my opinion, you should first learn the Bf 109 E-3 and Bf 109 F-1. Their low BR in realistic means you'll be on equal ground in terms of skill. Bf 109 is a decent BnZer but you should energy fight with it. If you see a plane coming at you from below make a shallow climb (like 60 degrees) and make them stall, since you'll have more speed.
Now climbing is rather simple, start off with 20 degrees, then just keep up with 15-17 degrees climbing angle. Your main goal shouldn't be angle though, but maintaining somewhere 250-260km/h speed when climbing (155-160 mph)
>>170739286
>kv 220 supercharger sound
nigger what
>>170739554
>Supercharger sound for KV-220 engine has been added.
from 1.67 update notes
Waifu acquired.
>>170739156
When doing BnZ, you should never reach the same altitude as your target or go below it in a dive. Basically what that means is to open fire at a greater distance, and if you miss, do a smooth transition from a dive to a climb, while always staying above the target. The transition from a dive to a new climb should be smooth, so your target loses a lot of energy trying to avoid your pass, while you lose only as little as possible.
G2 is even better at energy fighting than it is at BnZ, but that will come automatically as you become familiar with it. I recommend whenever you get killed to observe your teammates a bit so you see what works and what doesn't with the plane.
>>170739656

>tfw didn't grind the KV-220 like a retard
>>170739727
Not good waifu material. Paint Rem in the side!
>>170739529
what about ''cant kill shit'' problem, is it just shit aim, because I doubt planes were made to survive a full belt of 20mm
>>170739761
idk maybe somebody at the forum could ask, i havent have posting rights since a year ago
>>170739843
Ideally you should stall them out first or dive a low-energy fighter and shoot in bursts, rather than holding down M1. Also since the G2/Trop only has 1 cannon that means you shouldn't really go for bomber planes unless you can pilot snipe. Also what this guy said in terms of BnZing >>170739746
And don't fucking turnfight, you'll lose energy, which is what the Bf 109 lives for.
Why does gaijin make you grind on the fucking DEV SERVER?
Even EA got it right, why is Gaijin so inept?
>>170739843
And if you can't kill shit, don't worry about that. Not everyone in-game is Eric Hartmann and you'd be surprised how many people miss/sparkle their shots (Fuck, I once missed 200 ShVak shots whilst chasing a Typhoon). The YouTubers you watch are most likely just experienced pilots who've played the game for years.
>>170740305im watching squire
>>170739843
Firstly make sure your belts are the ideal ones, then make sure to fix your aim, the crosshair isn't very well lined up with your guns, so you might need to aim higher or lower than your target
>>170740210
The only ways to do things they know are 1) Making you pay for it 2) Doing shit
>mfw when Gaijin does something well im like
>AT LAST
>>170739843
Turn off vertical targeting, if you have it. It's fucking stupid and basically means that you'll have to aim below the enemy plane if for e.g you have 500m vertical targeting but the plane is flying in a straight line, 300m in front of you.

Yes, you get +30% rp, so it's an incentive to not use the same premium/talismanned vehicle forever (also using the same vehicle too much gets boring).
However, you probably already know how some good vehicles are locked away behind consecutive shit vehicles that anyone can wipe their ass with (IT-1), so it's not always more efficient.

You can also change your server in the game's launcher, if you want to play on Dev, just make a copy of your WT folder, click the wrench in the top right folder and change the server from "production" to "dev".
>>170757654
So it's just gonna use your current WT installation and write the files there? Or is it gonna create a new installation which I need to uninstall later?

because WT has a extremely large selection of aircraft only rivaled by modded IL2: 1946 but with much better graphics, accessibility and stability. Also ground forces integration?

All of the points in favor of WT are invalidated stupid shit such as grinding and "balanse )))".
>graphics
Irrelevant, they're good enough.
>accessibility
Setting up shit in 1946s is a nuisance, and even then WT tends to play tricks such as reverting binds while IL-2 never did that to me.
>stability
I had more crashes on 6 months of occasionally playing WT than in 10 years of regularly playing IL-2 1946 and 2 years of playing Cliffs of Dover + TF.
Also, IL-2 offers much more detailed aircraft in specific theaters such as the Battle of Britain, Stalingrad, Moscow and hopefully soon enough the Mediterranean.
And I couldn't care less about tanks. +2 GE for making me reply I guess.

Russian tanks are suffering, not because the vehicles themselves are bad but because the teams are utter garbage, goddamn.
So I just got the MIG-15BIS. flown about 30 games now. 20 kills/ 26 deaths. how the hell do you cunts hit people.
I can only kill people when they're really low on energy, aren't aware of me. Most of my kills are deflection shots or headon kills 1km out. Also what do I do when a fucking F-2 Sabre is on my ass other than trying to dive for it and hope my team reaches me in time.
Any general tips for the MIG-15BIS? I usually climb to 6km out before going in.

That particular model, their best proper tank fielded, had 50mm max. Crews absolutely covered them in spare tracks and sandbags but they had bad suspension so this slowed them down considerably. That "heavy tank" prototype was comparable to a sherm, less armor but more sloped

That is unarguably the Gepard at this time, with it's turret speed advantage, HVAPDS rounds and higher calibre. I'm not saying the M163 is a bad AA, but compared to the other SPAA ingame it's only really on par with the ZSU - equally low armoured, high rate of fire and low penetration rounds.
Besides, being able to accurately fire while on the move would be a fucking godsend for something so lightly armoured as the M113 chassis.

Well to be fair, you really can't. Only solution to a jam in the barrel is replacing the barrel.

Seeing as jammed guns click in the game i doubt it's a barrel jam.

they said that the gun jamming mechanic is meant to also simulate other issues brought by the guns overheating

And in real life, sheer explosive force was a lot more deadly than it was in War Thunder. Just like how tanks didn't have magical invisible fairies to repair their tanks, or hovering third person cameras.
War Thunder is not a simulator, ground forces decidedly less so.
>>170780914
>>170780770
In real life kinetic energy was also a factor.
maus, stuart elmo, KV2, IS-152 etc should be able to dislodge the turrets of medium tanks on impact

seeing as how gaijin made tanks going at speed stop instantly the moment they get hit and destroyed instead of carrying on on fire with their momentum for awhile like before, I'm guessing that isn't in their interest to do.

>underperform

>suck dick
absolutely.
>>170794182
do you not understand how much better it would be with APBC?even though it technically shouldn't because all a ballistic cap does is make it soar through the air better not give it better angled penetration, that's APCBC
>>170794257
It would still have a bounce chance vs T-54s, so not THAT good.
>>170794423
>It would still have a bounce chance vs T-54s, so not THAT good
it would be better and considering it would have plenty of penetration to go through the hull
you don't really understand bounce mechanics
if you have just barely enough penetration to pen and angled surface, you're going to bounce a lot
if you have much more penetration, hitting the same angled surface is going to result in a lot less bounces
>>170794665
You're retarded. If you have a 50% chance to bounce then the game essentially rolls a two sided die and if you get a 1 you bounce, unless, of course, your shell is big enough for overmatch to kick in, like a 75 mm or larger vs a T-34's UFP.

Yes, but not by destroying them to inoperable conditions most of the time. Rather just the fact that 3.6 kg of TNT is exploding around you makes it hard to concentrate operating the tank when you know another shelll is soon coming your way - and when your ears are bleeding from the pressure wave.

This. It's like shooting a railgun - super flat trajectory and good pen, fastest round in game and the best round for long range sniping. Also T-62's survivability is superb.
>>170797124
well, that and it nukes ammo, but it takes a brain and knowing where to shoot, which is sadly uncommon with other slav players
survivability is meh at best though, you never leave your sniping position with the thing, which is retarded, because it was intended to just bumrush the enemy despite having no armor whatsoever
but then again, slavs are retarded and so are their tactics
>>170797242
>survivability is meh at best though, you never leave your sniping position with the thing
Well, compared to other MBT's it's superb - Cheiftain and M60A1 might be on-par armor-wise. Talking about survivability against anything that isn't HEAT/HESH/ATGM tho. The front hull bounces long-range APDS when angled properly.
>it was intended to just bumrush the enemy despite having no armor whatsoever but then again, slavs are retarded and so are their tactics
Yeah, Soviet Cold War doctrine was pretty much zerg rush in case of WW3 - that is rush Europe with thousands of tanks at the same time.

the armor is still vastly inferior to the chieftain and even the M60A1
only real advantage it had over the two was that it had better side armor, but once you get flanked you're fucked anyways
but my peeve is they wanted to fucking zerg rush with tanks that couldn't fucking logically do it
when they got the T-64, THAT'S when they could fucking zerg rush, because most shells would've just dinged off harmlessly
>slavs will soon have their own, more mobile AA-truck with superior ROF
BIAS remains constant and sharp
>>170798010
>vastly inferior to the M60A1
Is this a joke? Maybe it would be true if it was armored properly, but the M60 armor models are missing tons of armor on the breach. As they are they die to ZSU-57s from the front with that awful turret ring.
>>170798157
>he doesn't take 3-4 HE or HEAT shells every match just to hull break
>>170798159
M60A1 has a shit turret but a practically invincible hull
T-62 has shit armor all around, not to mention the T-44/54/55/62 layout is ass cancer bad

c'mon m8
I said relatively though
if it had gone into combat at the time of it's first production, it would've been largely invincible, but it still would've been hampered by unreliability and mechanic work, both of which aren't modeled in WT
>>170798232
>T-62 has shit armor all around
HA! It's nearly immune to anything american or japanese that get uptiered to see it. Not everything that can see it can even ever get HEAT or HEAT-FS.
>>170798010
>most shells would've just dinged off harmlessly
What are ATGMs, what are planes, what are helicopters.

that applies to at least 60% of tanks in the game

yes, and with their top speed of about 50km/h they would have zerged the entirety of europe in around 40 hours

I'm playing some air arcade
My lead indicator only activates at roughly 500 meters instead of the normal 800. Is there any way to fix this?
>>170798239
It's only logical that if something was never used in combat, no combat losses could occur, right?
Just look at denial, when T-90 was knocked out frontally by old TOW in Syria. "Never lost in combat" argument comes from fact, that they weren't used in combat until then, bar for policing some republics not too happy about being part of Russia.
>>170798829
to be fair to the M48 once it actually has it's HEAT-FS round it's arguably better than the current M60/M60A1 is
>>170799230
>yeah, goyim, just get that ammo with golden shekels
>posted as teebs have to unlock literally zero shells in tier 5 except on their SPAA but burgers have to unlock ammo on everything, even their ATGM
>>170799229
>old TOW
pretty sure the TOW missiles they got a hold of were new dual-warhead rounds
the TOW platform is old, the warheads most definitely aren't
should I research m48 or m56 first
I already have m551
>>170799353
M56.
>>170799353
M48 for suffering
M56 if you want a meta vehicle like the Hellcat

crew panicking and running away, doesn't always mean tank is gone
>>170799632
Wasn't the Abrams supposed to have ammo racks that automatically eject anyway?
>>170799693
yes
an M1 getting ammo racked isn't catastrophic when happens unlike slav or even some other western tanks
>>170799693
well, they were stored in an area that if they got hit, instead of exploding into the tank, they'd explode outwards
>>170799342
they don't have TOW-2B meant to engage modern MBTs. But then again, no tank would survive that one anyway, so it's kinda moot point.
>>170799693
Turret rack and crew are separated by automatic blastdoors.
To prevent pressure from breeching blastdoors (which could take damage from hit), top plate is very weakly attached, and will come off easily, leting pressure and heat outside of a tank.
Rounds in hull rack are stored each in its own armored container, so if any gets hit directly, it won't cause chain reaction.
Also in case of fire in crew compartement, automatic systems pumps neutral gas (argon?) into tank to thin out oxygen, and supress fire for time crew needs to recover from shock and get the hell out.

sure
>>170802039
In comparison to the entire US air tree, yeah, nobody else has every single fucking Tier 2-4 trees packed with hilariously undertiered aircraft and if you deny that you should kill yourself
>>170802121

Stat cards don't seem to take power to weight ratios in to account. My p38l climbs way better than the card says
>>170802287
Air RB:
All F4Us
P-47M and that D that's still at 4.0
F6F-5 could go up a bit too, mostly because of its overperforming stall speed
All P-51s
P-63s could also go up
Late P-38s after the buff in the upcoming update
>>170803006
All P-51s except the one with the quad 20s, that one is fine.
But it's not like it's a problem only the US tree has.
I really hope Wyvern gets a BR raise next patch, it's undertiered as fuck.
>>170803109
not only the US tree, but mostly the US tree
>>170803109
comparative to the rest, yes it is, the US is FULL of hilariously undertiered aircraft.
>>170803006
How did the P-38s get buffed?Theyre my favorite plane
>>170765112
>He uses the GDR mig 15bis
>>170803217
I don't play P-38s, but some guy I know who flies them autistically told me that the flaps are hilariously good now.
Mollins 57 mm cant destroy light pillboxes anymore ??
>>170803669
They were able to turn pretty well at alt at low speed with flaps, sounds interesting, I only use them as a last resort. Guess ill have to wait.
The MiG17 is shit
I wish I was in my F2
>D9 sees 4.3 aircraft that stand no chance like the cannoncat and lower tier spits
>but the D30 Mustang is the problem
>>170803919
all slav planes past like t2 are obsolete and worthless
>tfw no MiG-19 with actual armament to BTFO HATOniggers
>>170804139
>tfw no F5 to btfo commies
>>170804232
but you already have the F2 which does that
>>170804332
yeah but i want mach capable gunfighters
Mig19
F5
Crusader
Mig21
>>170804139
idk senpai, La-5fn, La-7, Su-6 are godtier.
Maybe you should stop being a shitter :)
>>170803919
>the majority of kills on f2s and hunters arent even from destroying their airframe but sniping the pilot
I remember the days when you would hit a sabre with a 37 and it would blow the tail and wing off him and he would just violently spiral into the ground
>>170804139
>MiG-19 with actual armament
vs Super Sabres with Sidewinders. People forget how early on Burgers had air-to-air homing missiles
>>170804439
>Su-6
>god tier
Su-6 is shit
IL-10M is god tier
>shell explodes on ground
>continues to travel towards me
>get hit
>4 times trough the fucking ground by HESH
>>170804623
>shit that can't hit a fighter
plus slavs would also probably get the MiG-17F, which had the K-13, a reverse engineered sidewinder
why are mixed battle still a fucking thing
>>170804779
but the super sabre shits on the 17 even without missiles
>>170804659
with those pingpong launchers? are you high anon
>>170804880
if it's too good then it probably won't be added
just kidding, it's burgershit, of course they'll get UFOs then complain when it doesn't come with an aimbot
>>170804946
>4x23mms
>bad
>with a rear 20 that obliterates anyone within view of it
>and a turn rate that's arguably better than fucking slav fighters
IL-10M is the best heavy fighter
>>170804623
first Soviet homing missile was copy of AIM-9. Chinese found unexploded missile stuck in one of their MiGs, in 1958, and sent it to Soviet Union for examination.
>>170805045

i'd take the one with 2x VYa-23 over it any day.
>>170804779

>>170805348

>>170805348
I mean we'll probably get missiles when we get strategic bombers
>>170805524
we already have strategic bombers lol
>>170805872
not jets
>tfw no Tu-16 with AM-23 meme guns
why the fuck i keep getting player is credited for kill ??? am i running out of hp or what
>>170806249
What?
>>170807342
Fighting with enemy usually results me of dying without knowing how i died. I just get message which plahyer got credited for kill. Even fucking dorniers fucked up my mosquito in a blink of an eye...
Is Dev server still up?
>>170807457
Instant loss of your planes means you got pilot sniped.
>>170807582

>>170807634
it usually points out when my pilot gets sniped
>>170807669
Fug
When will it be back up?
>>170807457
Hull break, they snuck it in, in one of "client stability improvments", I think one directly after hull break was added to tanks.
There's probably no stringtables for it in planes, so reason of death isn't displayed. Base damage is 80 for HE and 300 for AP, exact values depend on HP of frame, I suppose.
>>170807724
dunno
we might even get the full release before it goes back up
>>170806249
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OEh9TnRMkn3IkgIuXXRPpYlqBrtNVdizZ_tGeveo9Ok/edit
So I hear that APDS/AP post pen damage has been buffed. Is it actually good now?
Any proofs/webms? I might go back to Brit tanks now.
>>170807902
watched some youtuber reviewing T34 today
he shot Sherman in side armor with 120 mm, ammo got yellow. Then he shot T29 in hull and killed the driver. Then T29 instagibed him.

>>170809050
no
but
>playing arkaden
>>170809016
The only reason I can think of why they might do that is because so many new players are american and want to try US planed and they don't learn to git gud before then complain online about russian bias and shitfires.
