Crappy meme

What LST is that?

And is that during that Soviet invasion of China?

Hope you enjoy my MS paint skills friends!

>this is 6,7 allies never die

is this a joke?

google says it's exercises in 50ss

Cheers. Neat picture that.

wen

Thank fuck tomorrow's round of challenges won't be this shit.

When?

youtube.com/watch?v=lbfuJvZHPmw

Naw, nigga, it's worse. You get ammo racked by planes more often than you kill them. At least the M19 has some armor around the shells. Not to mention the slav 14.5mm MG or your open top. Enjoy being "just as good" as other SPAA your BR such as the kugelblitz, though.

Tapir Class Landing Ship (NATO Reporting Name: Alligator)

Never, good.

Thanks, mate.

rude

you take that back

>be Mitchell
>pick Arcade
>go to gunner view
>look at dead zone
>tab out
Wow, this sure is hard.

Besides the fact that that doesnt work in Arcade, sure.

It does, though.

>Get shredded because they dodge around the retarded AI gunners
No it really doesn't.

AI gunners get pretty good for >arcade once you have them maxed.

>have them maxed
lol

>try to help someone
>they don't help when i get there
>i die

This is why I don't help anyone anymore. This is why I'ma stay in my little nook and wait.

Gotta put those crew points somewhere, famalam.

Are you implying that you already have all the other skills maxed?
wew

Do you even play the game?

>not ace

lmao

If I'm going to blow enough money on this game to max out a crew I'm going to buy some premium vehicles.

>Bomber
>no even ace

Ace is a pain to grind for.

I bet yoru ground service is barely maxed

Nigga, are you stupid? Crew level 75 means everything is maxed.

I got my account to level 40 only playing one nation on the 5 crew slots and I don't even have any crew skills maxed on anything.

y-you aren't a good goy are you?

>less than 6,000 sessions between every game mode
Confirmed for not even playing.

>plane shitters showing off their "max" crew when they only have 3 tabs

>guys look at me, the game fucks me even harder

o-ok

literally ok trihax

>ulq
get gassed

>battlefield 1 will have ships before war thunder

>gigaslav
>clappers T4+

Ships are overrated. Gib more boats.

Every time I play at night or in the morning the teams are complete and utter shit.
Why are americans so bad at video games?

As I say every thread. If I put it on anything other than ULQ I get bellow 20 FPS. Already submitted tickets on it.

T-Thanks for the (you)

)))

reminder if you arn't getting memed you arn't living

>not shooting the gun

tbf the gunner is on the left in the SU-152 I think

you would've been dead either way, he just might've been missing two more crewmembers afterwards

O-Ok

Gunner is just behind the driver. Doesn't mean he's not a dingus for not shooting through the breech, though.

>shoot the breech

How exactly would he manage this

He can't get an angle on the breech because it's pointed straight at him, and shooting the mantlet/gun is even more of a dice roll than shooting a drivers window.

Just below the barrel is less armored and unangled.

>5 enemy fighters chasing a mig at my team's airfield
>airfield AAA does fuck all while they get wiped out by the enemy fighters

Fuck. I give up. This challenge is fucking bullshit if you're not burger bombers with a gorillian fiddie turrets.

I didn't want to own burger planes, but I guess I probably should grind out some cancer bombers before the next time this rolls around.

>arcade

?

i hate that crash landing which would leave the pilots alive is considered a death if it's not done on the airfield

on some occasions you can even be repaired after getting a death in rb air, if you badly crash on the edge of an airfield, but that's a different matter

Is this considered an average performance for a member of the elite [JG508]???

>if you badly crash on the edge of an airfield
Or if you run out of fuel and glide to a runway.
You can avoid it by shutting down the engine when you have a couple seconds of fuel left but the rare occasion I run out I always forget to do that.

I was doing Sometimes you get three, sometimes you get none.

JG508 are all TS aspies that are shit at the game and mainly play other games because they are bad at WT.

They're bad at WT and even worse at life. Honestly they need to permanently quit both, preferably immediately.

I'm never using wagers again.

Does that ever actually fool people into shoot you like you're the basic IS-2 hull?

because that's brilliant

>entire fucking front plate still visible
>as well as the viewport
>aka everything different about the mod 44 still visible

How can someone so retarded still be literate enough to create your comment?

>have so many fucking wagers including duplicates
>can't even delete them

>thinking there are people playing war thunder who wouldn't fall for that
do you even play this game

Fall for what? Shooting the front plate that THEY CAN FUCKING SEE, because some fuel cans are covering the turret ring make them somehow think it's the IS-2?

The only retarded one here is you.

Because the fuel cans are arranged to look like the L-shape of the first hull from a distance instead of the characteristic single slope of the 1944.

user, are you feeling alright? Seems pretty clear to see to me.

Just activate them, activating a new one deletes the one that was previously active. I cleaned up my wagers except for golden battles, feels good.

>viewport is now in the approximate vicinity of the gun barrel
>nothing wrong here might as well shoot it

How to get triple kills? That's kinda hard...

1 match of arcade or 1 match of realistic in a decent fighter
this will be the easiest one by far

T-62 should have been a special premium via event like E-100

what retarded logic are you using

At this point I think it's time we start adding in T5 SPGs, we need a way to kill MBTs without being railgunned the moment we leave cover.

ATGM.

Only 2 ATGM have the ability to fire from nearly complete cover and it has to be certain kinds of cover

>en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yakovlev_Yak-50_(1949)
>more protoshit

c-could i at least get a test drive or something actually useful like +10% rp boost

There's so much paper/protoshit in the game I don't know how you can even pretend this is a legitimate complaint anymore. I wouldn't be surprised if there were more unique prototype/paper airframes/chassis than production in the German tree at this point.

"no."

if you think this game has a lot of paper wait till we get ships

I haven't played tier five tanks.

Will it really be that much of a threat?

I count nine paper/proto tanks
ten planes

>still no nip tanks
But why

It depends on which shells they give it. It's first APFSDS were p bad, but they might go full retard give it depleted uranium arrows.

No, it's best round will be a 440mm HEAT-FS shell. In all other regards it's worse than the T-54.
