>literally a worse IL-28

no thanks

G-guys let's not add jet strat bombers.

They're adding it anyway.

I wish the A-7 would stand for this ;-;

Fucking love it desu, has made the game a fun "intercept the bombers before they destroy your airfield" game. Loving it desu

fuck off bong

>Operated by the Hellenic Air Force

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAF

fuck off Junko

I think Corsair II might be a bit too advanced bud.

yeah, people should try this before they start to cry because people use a plane thats in the game

>cloud layer
>the moment anyone dips below the clouds and gets spotted he gets raped by some fuckwit flying in the clouds all match long
10/10 gameplay

That is easy to avoid and clouds played a part irl battles
clouds are fine

>and clouds played a part irl battles
Yeah, and you couldn't magically see planes outside them when you're flying through thick clouds.
Proxy spotting should not work for anyone currently flying in them.

I aggree, unless both your teammate and enemy are in the cloud too.

Why is she so perfect, lads

>red vs blue gamemode
I knew it it's gonna be some shitty event.

Hey guys! Just had this pop up on my screen, was wondering if any of you know what it is? Was it something that was added when I was away? What does it mean? Thank you in advance for your answers!

Heyyy, I uninstalled WT. I'm finally free!

that the uhu back there tho

That KV looks weird too, no idea what variant is that. Might be cool, I guess.
I was hoping for Cold War Thunder ;_;

Lies

Probably something to do with the new event.

Looks like a T-150

t.ex WoT player

twitter.com/WarThunder/status/756469090684923904

What did they mean by this?

either that or kv-220
either way, it's WoTshit and will probably be an event reward.

You'll see. I'm fucking done, unless they announce a return to big tank maps next patch.

waiting time for tonks is 2much

why is this game so dead

>Everything will become clear within an hour! Stay alert, stay tuned!

>What we see here? modification of #КB(220 or 150?), #M3 Lee, #FockeWulf #Fw 189 Uhu, F7F-2
>another f7f

Can't wait to work my ass of for some meme plane

inb4 tournament and top 100 players get vehicles

>F7F-2

this list might be correct after all

reddit.com/r/Warthunder/comments/4tyqj3/since_a_lot_of_you_requested_it_here_is_a/

for me it's going to be down to whether the uhu has a cockpit or not unless the event is piss-easy
last I heard it didn't have one

That is definietly Grant, not Lee.

>warthunder.com/en/news/4151-special-operation-s-u-m-m-e-r-en/
Wew, it's fucking NOTHING.

seemed pretty passive to me
Also what was up with the beginning? Why was the plane diappearing all the time

It's a KV-220.

>four new premium vehicles
>premium vehicles

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE fucking JEEEEEWWWWWSSSSS

Operation SUMMER starts tomorrow, then. So who wants to squad up and get those vehicles?

>f7f-3 looks tempting
>I would have to farm every fucking day the next month
nah, I probably wouldn't be able to even if I tried

>Test data obtained in the testing grounds are sure to help Britain make its new military vehicle prototypes even better, and the Grant modification, stripped down to the screws, has again taken on its original form, receiving protection from the deadly sands of the desert and an upgraded turret.

What

It's a feature ))

Where the FUCK is the Tu-95

Wasnt hyped last year and sure as hell aint this year. Brace for blogposting by the ts aaspies during their grinding and bootlicking

>these pin ups

Well I'm gonna go for these at least.

>get fighter rescuer or bomber rescuer 15 times
>in one day
Yeah, fuck this event

slav P-63A-10 was a reward for just 5 straight up kills or something, right?
that guy must've gotten fired so hard

Me too.

>modern german flag
>soviet flag
heh

>Destroy a plane attacking a friendly Bomber
how exactly does this even work? Do I have to wait until the enemy landed a hit on our bomber? I mean, I got "bomber rescuer" many times before, but I cant imagine how to purposfully get it. If I'm escorting a bomber bro, the enemy will most likely attack me first. Or is it good enough to be close to a bomber? What happens if everybody wants to score this award? no bombers and/or shitty forced behavior happens

>What happens if everybody wants to score this award?
this your first farming event? wait until they hit you with the "kill 10 japanese bombers"

That really triggers me. I know why they cant use the real deal. But at least use the flag without the swastika (or have it be covert by the girl). Or even use a simple black/red/white flag. But thats just dumb

>modern japanese flag

Sadly not, no. I guess, I just keep being surprised by how shamelessly counter-fun and grindy they are designed.

Also:
>get x amount of kill assists in one day
>nobody dares to kill
Bravo gaijin

Isn't the flag with the rays just their war flag?

Yep, guy was being a retard, how rare on wtg!

So I'm new but can someone explain how the Pz4 F1 and Crusader Mk. II have the same battle rating?

Wow this event looks like it's going to be even worse than the one they had for the KV-2/Bong's P-38

>kill 10 japanese bombers

was gonna ask anyway, go japanese strategic and tactical bomber tree for the lulz y/n
thinking on a Italian collection too

My daily obj is to get 12 ground kills with an attacker.

Can't see a single attacker in the British tree, not even the Attacker is an attacker apparently. 57mm mossie isn't, 40mm typhoon isn't, etc.

Do strike fighters count or not? I'd test but I'm doing it in RB and don't want to waste my time.

if you've missed it, you can see all challenges already
warthunder.com/en/news/4156-calendar-operation-s-u-m-m-e-r/
I expect lots of anger from f7f farmers

it isn't even a flag, it's just a red circle with a white sheet of paper behind it.

Only good Jap bomber is the G8 because it's covered in cannons and can rape jet fighters, all the other ones are badly armed and don't even get good bombloads like the Bongs.

why shouldnt they?

for once I agree with Naziboo, only redeeming quality of Pz IV is that hit is more likely to one-shot crew.

>people still play grind thunder

hehhehhhehehheh

but it's anti-normie

>12 ground kills with an attacker
Well, it is very likely to get that in a single match. If you compare that withThere is something weird going on

how much points do you average in one match? I usually lay on 900-1000

I think he's just talking about the warbonds tasks

They do that, and the modern Jap flag, because they think the Soviets won.

>tfw you aren't grinding shit for this event
feels good

oops

I've already got cancer from grinding this event.

Do they think this shit is actually fun?

Thats the only way to deal with it. I walked away from this many events ago.
I shouldnt have to spend almost a month of excessive wt grinding to get the rewards. It's just not worth some shitty premium plane

The shit that pisses me off about this task is that there's no way to do it intentionally.
It's also way easier to get arcade but has no multiplier for realistic.

>>Tanker tasks (while driving rank III to V ground vehicles)
>>>Destroy 50 aircraft in the “War in mid air” event.

it's another event with impossible challenges and shitty low energy rewards. i'm so glad they are wasting time and money adding shit to the game that no one wanted, ever asked for or is premium. What a fun game

Fucking this. Pure cancer.
Why not design it in a way it becomes fun?

>KV-220
>BR 5.3
>85mm cannon
>a month of grinding

Fw 189 could be cool for ec sim, but it has no cockpit. They are literally just putting """bad""" planes as event rewards to allow people to feel unique with their meme planes

fuck gaijin

At least the challenges seem so shitty, that I know to not even bother

How long until their challenges start having battle activity requirements?

tomorrow

>Gain 7 victories in random battles with 50% activity.
>Gain "Teamwork" award in random battles 7 times.
>Destroy 18 enemy fighters in random battles (х2 for RB, х3 for SB)
>Destroy 25 AI controlled ground targets in random battles (х2 for RB, х3 for SB)

Some of them seem quite easy. I will at least get a pinuo for whatever reason

>american girl is mulatto
Well, im fucking triggered

ikr.
I fell for it last time. I won't fall for the shitty meme vehicle temptation again

Where the fuck do you see these?

>only one mark per day
>pinup is 8 marks per
>only 40 marks available
Fug
I really want some nation specific qts

warthunder.com/en/news/4156-calendar-operation-s-u-m-m-e-r/

I just want the Grant so I can round off my bong tree.
