>implying I use non-free software

Remember kids. Only you can stop the menace of non-free software.

are you surprised? Theres only one poster who does the naziboo posts.

fuck off naziboo

What do you guys think of the p-38j?

P40-B when? Low-tier fighters from other nations have a million different variants, but the U.S. doesn't get one of the most significant P40 models.

Germans are getting the Pz III B as their third reserve tank, so what do you think the other countries are getting as their third reserve? I guarantee the T-28 with the KT-28 will be their third reserve.

*will be russia's third reserve
muh brain

DEAD GAME

>start game

>30s in i get instant killed
>quit
>repeat

why the fuck did i pick american tanks, this is actually just suffering.

>ywn unironically make a leather sofa from the skin of the sentient filth that work at gaijin

I don't even know why i play this shit game anymore, it's literally just another shitty grind like WoT.

I'm doing so fucking bad that i'm downtiered everygame and i still get shit on instantly. Atleast in WoT you don't get instant killed by everything.

>he has fucking 5.7 BR vehicles and still hasn't learned about presets

hello wtg, I got this game via steam and just use the steam login option to play straight away. I'm trying to buy a vehicle pack via inside the game but PayPal doesn't seem to be working in the steam browser so I just want to make a Gaijin account to buy it in my normal webbrowser (the steam login doesn't seem to work in it).

Is there a way to make any Gaijin account I make one with my steam login? Trying to figure it out but it's just been so confusing, and I can't even send Gaijin a message because I need an account.

>literally giving these filthy subhuman vodka sucking kikes money

How many golden eagles are you supposed to get when you make a new account?

can you just answer the question?

Drink this then get back to me.

no one in this general plays the game aside from a few autists.

>vehicle visibility on stat cards

how does this mechanic function? especially in RB tanks

Game is dead to me

Does WT have clan wars where you can get free shit a la WoT?

No, Gaijew very GENEROUSLY lets you have "squadron battles" where you can fight for arcade level rewards against opponents using nothing but 100% more meta bullshit than what you see already in MM

>entire team of Kugelblitzs Ho223 and Jagdtiger

Before it was implemented I did some testing, the mechanics worked so that at like 5km or so you'd pop in (can't remember) and shooting made you appear when you otherwise wouldn't. Then in the patch where they did it based on 'size' and crew skills they brought in the ranges, etc. Anton confirmed this. I made a pre patch video as well to prove that.

I'm too lazy to make another video

Levelling the American bomber tree in RB is the worst fucking thing, can't even be remotely useful until the B17

Just fly regular planes instead, and the b25s can be gud you're just contributing to burger bombercancer spam

Like company battles in WoT then. Do you at least get free shit from esports faggotry? Assuming WT has that at all.

>finally unlock the big dick
>up-tiered next 5 matches
>same ammo damage as marder H

>same ammo damage as marder H
you are clearly doing something wrong

>40mm can't pen a BT-5
what

you need to unlock the big dick ammo, it's tier II

SOVIET STEEL

>hit the wooden handle of a spade on the side of a Pz. IV with a 17pdr.

>same ammo damage as marder H
>I am literally this stupid

>Shot through the top of my Tiger II turret from the front with an APBCR

I've seen some shit today.

There is NO such thing as Bias.

Just excellent machines.

Get a trip Scarper.

this
with "bias" logic, america is biased because the M4A3E2, T32, M551, and probably more, germany is biased because dicker max, sturer emil, maus, etc., russia is biased because T-34 and T-10M, and bongistan is biased because Churchills, and T5 in general.

>Just excellent machines.

you're right, just look at these excellent machines Mexico produces, pioneers in the field of armored warfare.

tanks-encyclopedia.com/modern/Mexico/Narco_Tanks

Burrito tech tree when?

...

>"Ricochet"
>it didn't actually ricochet.

what is this memery?

Devblogs where?

What's more is it was a 17pdr from 350 yards. Guess I rolled a one ((((((((((((((((

If you look clearly you can see it deflecting off the track into the side

>quad 30mms
>6.0

FUCKING WHY? THERE IS LITERALLY NOTHING IT DOES NOT ONE SHOT. WHY IS IT EVEN IN THE GAME?

>everyone else gets tanks with rapid fire guns at 1.3 or lower
>britain's T1 rapid fire vehicle is at 2.3 where it can't do shit
why

I fucking hate the He112 A-0. I'd take a single 8mm MG over that shitty autocannon any day.

>he's mad that one killed him

No, I'm flying it. And I can't fucking stand it.

>can't even get out of bongistan T1 because they're literally like running around as a person with a shotgun trying to kill tanks
I'm not even fucking trying this country. These tanks are too shit for me to slog through to the good ones.

who said you have to fly it, sperglord?

It oneshots absolutely everything once you can aim the gun. It's great.

The fact that I want to unlock all of the mods for it.

I deeply loathe that kind of gun (slow ROF, shit ballistic properties, stupidly heavy HE filled bullet), it's one of the reasons why I rarely ever fly the late war Bf109s and the Me-262 in IL-2.

I love those kind of guns. Makes it so much more satisfying if you hit once and see the enemy disintegrate. Can't wait to fly the Narwhal.

>activate 300% booster
>get max uptiered
>get shit fucked by stuff I can hardly penetrate
>next game get downtiered
>fuck shit up
>9k rp
>would have gotten ~37k rp if I activated booster for that game
REEEEEE

how do i make my game not look like total shit?

>activating large boosters
>ever
it's better to let them just waste away as opposed to getting let down.

Because it's only impressive armament-wise.

The T-V is great. I used it in my 6.3 games to fuck over Tiger 2s. I even killed a T32 in it. Too bad the T-34-100 got uptiered to 6.7. I wouldn't dare take the T-V into a 7.7 match.

Main reason why I'm so buttmad about the T-34-100 uptier.

> NOTHING IT DOES NOT ONE SHOT

4x30 mm

I can bear those kind of guns if I have to use them for taking down bombers, not for trying to splash nimble fighters.

Also, the He-112 B0 is absolutely disgusting. I played only a single match with it and I already unlocked two of the tier 1 modifications. I don't think I've even got fired at.

>direct hit to a werbelwind turret with a 105mm HE shell doesn't do any damage
nice logic you've got there, gaijin

You just reminded me of something.

>play WoT
>flank some nazi paper TD
>fire an HE shell inside its open turret
>the shell does less damage than an AP round
>it turns out that if you fire inside an open turreted vehicle HE damage gets reduced by half because the game thinks you didn't penetrate
Just one of the many reasons why I stopped playing WoT. I wonder how much I could make if I were to sell my account.

>HE damage gets reduced by half because the game thinks you didn't penetrate
post noobmeter stats or GTFO shitter

I was blue with the latest FOTM formula back in 2013, some of the last tanks I went through were close to be the first tier of purple. And I practically never platooned.

>playing a game with literally the most retarded logic in existence
I don't know why anyone praises WoT for it's mechanics. They're way shittier than WT's mechanics could ever be.
>inb4 le shill meme

>blue
>with FOTM
thats still shit then
>i practically never platoon
all platooning does is inflate your winrate, not your wn8. but i am glad to see you are already being defensive

they are bad but they are consistent. unlike pic related for example

I prefer quality over consistency

>implying I still play WoT
Fucking thank Jesus I got out of that in 2013. AW could've got me sucked in if they didn't fuck up so badly. Now I'm just playing WT planes for shit and giggles/when I can't be fucked with plugging in my HOTAS.

>thats still shit then
No, that's pretty fucking good considering I played for winning the game first and foremost (lol 61% WR), instead of grinding for damage with gold ammo.

>weaboos complain about jap planes having too high of a repair cost
ahahahaha

>tfw AW is shit and won't even run on my computer because I'm a macpleb
I want Gaijin to remove all post-war content from WT and make a new, Post-War game similar to War Thunder, but not WWII.

what quality?

>grinding for damage with gold ammo
more excuses of shitters. just accept you are garbage man.

The fact that you're getting so offensive makes me think that you are in fact the shitter, a frustrated one too. But it's okay, it doesn't matter.

purple, 63% winrate and sold the acc for 300€ to some shitter like you :^)

God I hope not, now that would make me fall back on the shitty russian F2P meme pretty hard. I find WW2 tanks pretty fucking dull and boring, but Cold War era tanks have the exact opposite effect on me. Especially shit from the 50s/60s.

>he actually replied
Thanks for proving my point :^)

>not wanting to have gaijin make a second F2P for cold war stuff, not requiring you to grind for months to be able to have it
Dude, you can just play the Cold War game and ignore War Thunder. I wanna see T-72s in the Dagor Engine badly.

the quality of WT's mechanics, as opposed to WoT's mechanics.

You're missing my point, I DO NOT want to play another russian F2P game, especially one that would have zero competition in the form of proper simulators (no, Steel Beasts doesn't count as it's almost entirely about contemporary shit), because I've already been there and I know how addicting it can get.

Why does it matter. Don't play it then.

I want to bully people who didn't reach high tiers back when it was easier

>decide to try out the spitfire mk16
>that roll rate
>those guns
>that speed
>only has ~12 minutes of fuel
nice

I finally got it
you either get uptiered and get fucked
or you either get downtiered and club
I can finally die in peace
