/wtg/ - War Thunder General

Is the hurricane Mk IV the only plane with these 40mm cannons? They kill everything so fast

>F-86F-30

AAAH

Just use a few golden eagles )))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

You mean, list of things up your butt that you can't get out.

why is /wtg/ so ded as of late? Did all the shitposters move onto good games?

Just take off and crash, that should be enough to unlock it.

From what I'm aware of, the old TS aspies left the TS and took their load of shitposting with them
And the people still on the TS moved onto MWO and various other games.
I can only speak for the TS crew though, no clue about the rest of ya.

The opposite, it's only shitposters left and not even all of them. A year or two ago it was a mix but now it's nothing but. Veeky Forums threads either die of their cancer or become the cancer.

If you want to do something other than circlejerk what few namefags are left /r/warthunder is better in every single way. I'll happily accept it if someone can prove otherwise.

but user, I like shitposting occasionally. Making fun of naziboos is the best

I miss the pre-tanks general

What is /wtg/'s opinion of black metal?

I like some of it but a lot of it has really bad production and I can't get past that.

I really really like Cobalt.

Literally just grab a bunch of twigs, throw them on the ground, and there is your band name

>tfw /wtg/ is finally ded
maybe we can finally reach comfiness now.

>atheist
>satanic/occult symbols
but yeah, I like black and death metal. It's pretty relaxing

>you will never meet a qt femboy into world war 2 tanks and planes
>you will never nerd out and play DCS, IL2, and bore blunder together
life is suffering desu

>Battlefield will have WW1 gameplay before War Thunder does

The next few weeks allied team will be two thirds premiums, won't they?

Why?

it's only 30% off, so it won't make difference for most, unless you mean low tiers which people may buy justy to have them in collection.
Also bundle premium vehicles are not discounted

CAN'T SEE SHIT, CAPTAIN

Holy shit, stop being autistic cunt and leave the fucking TS address alone

>Teamspeak

Nice shitposting right there idiots. For the guy that was asking why it's dead, it's always like that. It's been months since the last big update and most people unlocked new shit within 2-3 weeks. People then play for a month or two, but if there's no more need to do the event (most people just log in to get daily trophy and do the event), they won't stick around. There's a week or two left until a big update hits according to the charts, which will bring new content for people to unlock and fool around. Then the cycle will repeat and the game+this general will be dead again until new update. People will probably stick around a bit longer this time, if pasta planes are really coming, but still ded soon enough until new update is out

>BF1 can have FOkker Dr.1
>WT STILL won't add it
feels bad desu youtu.be/c7nRTF2SowQ

This looks so overly flashy and stupid.
And why the fuck didn't they just call it Battlefield 1916 or something.

>so overly flashy and stupid
Looks a lot like WT's trailers actually

>they sneakily added fucking Wings of Prey discount lmao
store.gaijin.net/story.php?title=Wings-Prey-Special-Edition-1&skin_lang=en

Never watched those desu

Will probably play it, but I prefer my healthbars to be invisible tbqh

what the fugg is Wings of Prey?

pc port of il2 birds of prey

The reason so many idiots parrot the "Gaijin is good at aircraft, because they made IL-2"

That's legit the most annoying part, the fucking healthbars and everything being a bullet sponge. WT spoiled me a bit with module shit and actually being able to fuck up breech and disable the tanks/planes, in BF it's just a healthbar not to mention plane mechanic is terrible. If they made it slightly more realistic, I'd play it a ton, but this way there will never be a proper game with infantry getting slaughtered by Mark 1 tanks.

Do these things even drop anything decent now? Last 30 or so trophies I got were either a random amount of SL or an order

>land my overheating plane almost in the middle of Sicily
>just roll the plane over half the map to repair while a Spacefire is running
>actually make it there and takeoff before the match is over
I like Sicily.

I used to have free mods and even few talismans dropped in trophy, now it's just backups and negligible amount of SL

>want 5 85% participation wins for the PPSh
>figure I might as well do it in the tournament event
>get four wins
>look at progress
>0/5
is this bugged or does the tournament not count

How the fuck is battle activity even measured? I have rounds where I made three kills with just 60-70%

No clue, but I think points play a role, and tanks overall are easier to get participation with.

basically punishment for playing long games

Events never usually count for unlockables/camo/whatever progress, EC doesn't.

>its a US team attempts BnZ and all die episode
god US players are terrible

that's fucking ass, I was hoping to get done with it quick
Guess I'll stop tryharding and get my wins over the full duration of the event

Gaijin sucks pee pee, whats new

Dont you know the meme that WW1 is boring?
It was solid, Birds of Prey on the console was great too
B I R D S O F P R E Y
Dont like healthbars myself desu
Dont, theyre all bad, the live action one was kinda cool
its kay, go get it off some Pirate site instead, Gaijin dont deserve a penny
yeah it looks dumb
yeah it looks stupid
>Bloom, Flare
lol
>nice shitposting
:))))))))))

>bought 90 days of premium
>bunch of planes left to grind but none that I'm really interested in

F9F-8 and Sea Hawk when

>Dont like healthbars myself desu
do you know what thread you're in

Pre LMS you wouldve had my vote, but post its pretty clear thats not how the system works. fuck you

>Germany gets a canadian sabre
>british tree doesn't get a canadian or australian sabre

Are the high tier Yak-9s good?

>Hunter not being the best jet

Not substantially enough to warrant playing them over the Yak-3P or La-7
I feel sorry for the people having them as roadbumps when the Yak-30 becomes the god of 8.0

Any of the American plane premiums good?

Yak-9P is great, even stock

a.pomf.cat/oczpzq.webm

>when the Yak-30 becomes the god of 8.0
That's actually why I'm asking. I have the 9P but I have to grind the one after that and the Yak-15 and 17. I kinda want to fly the Yak jets even if they're meme shit.

Dunno if I should keep grinding the La-15 or switch to the Yak line

>impossible in any plane that isn't RU

Yak jets were extremely fun before the cannon arado and Ho-229 were implemented.

the Lavochkin jets were great before the new thermodynamics, now they are pretty meh. I still play them because I can't stand poor roll rates, MiG-15/17 are unbearable to me.

>look mom I can mouse ace too!

...

>Throw mouse across room flying Yak-9
>3 kills, 2 assists and a "soft landing"
haha yes dood you are such a good piilot! I too, am an ace :)

>play mouse aim mode
>cry about mouse aim

Let's see your sick joystick kills bro.

Too many to count and record.

Sure.

>that overweight kid at school who lied about everything

>that naruto kid who ran with their arms behind his back

>That feel when you bounce off an is3 in your jagpanther and then one-shot him through the driver's port
The memeslope being outmemed

link me to some RAF songs

youtube.com/watch?v=_Hav-A05CCw

BnZ has become a meme. All the cool kids are doing it.

>Yak-9P is great, even stock
You weren't joking

Then again I got downtiered and didn't face any Bearcats or Griffon Spits, only P-51s, Corsairs and a Spit Vc

What guns does the Stirling have? I tend to approach them thinking they won't be a threat, same way I attack Lancasters, but their guns seem to do much more damage than I expect

Does it have 50cals?

No they don't. Just look it up.
Stirlings can't shoot down, so attack them from beneath. Learn the bombers deadspots.

Um, That's not me, I am pretty happy with my laptop but I wouldn't mind getting a good computer.

So how long will these discounts last? I'm kind of occupied until next friday and all I have is my phone and shit internet.

2 days 17 more hours from this post.

I've got 14k ge but the year's premium is just over half of that.

There's not particularly any vehicle or anything I want to get, but I can't help but want to save up a lot just in case ships are ever a thing or we get more cool premiums I'd consider buying on a sale.

The 90 day one seems too short by comparison though, I don't know if I should fall for their jewish tricks and just buy the year or not.

didn't mean to link, soz senpai

How do I git gud at planes? I can't wrap my head around it. I always lose the duels, get out turned, outmaneuvered, out gunned.

Not much to talk about with mouseaim. More often than not it's about who has the higher altitude and smallest turn radius.

>landing and repairing ingame consumes free repairs

American BF109, or BTD-1?

BTD-1 because captured planes are cancer.

>buying anything discounted under 50%

ayyyy get a load of this fuccboi

this desu

Don't play USA. You'll get outeverythinged most of the time.
Get yourself a spitfire, bf109, or a yak.
Also climb.

I've opened "day 14" 5 days in a row now.

How do 6.7+BR bongs fare against slav tanks? I don't care about tigers and shit, I can always deal with those, but slavs are always triggering
