Do you live in a bizarro world where what you said is actually true?

>triggered burgerbabby on suicide watch

>be most handheld nation
Spicy meme la

Anyway on to serious topic, is this average performance for a 508 member?

why is the hunter in this game

Huomenta

Most skill needed to fly is German
Least skill is ufo nippon and britcuckilardistanis

Most skill in tanks is required Russian
Least skill is German or burgerbloblards

I'll reply

>Most skill needed to fly is German
>boom and zoom the nation
>the easiest play style
+1(You)!

Here's a (You), shitposter

Are the bong tier 5 planes as shit as I've been told?

Tracks are by far the most RNG thing in this game.

don't be fooled by teab whining

Should of just shot the Stug's hull.

Russian pedo bias confirmed.

of all the generals in Veeky Forums this one has to be in the bottom five.
nothing of value ever gets posted in this shitposting circlejerk

Are you trying to tell us things we already know? A constant discussion on wtg isn't whether we're in the bottom five, it's if we're THE worst general right now. Somehow /kspg/ got deleted for shitposting, yet /wtg/ survives gayposting and all.

the moderation is highly influenced by their taste in vidya.
i highly doubt any jani or mod plays war thunder and actively reads this thread unlike kspg.
not that i can blame then since every non bait reply either gets completely ignored or shitposted with unfunny greentext may mays.

the only things that get actual discussion going in this general are three types of post; a genuine controversial opinion about the balance of certain vehicles or mechanic of something in the game, a rare post by someone blatantly retarded who isn't actually baiting making his stupid opinion public, and Gaijin amping up towards a new patch.

>shooting 30mm of armor with guns that can only pen 26mm

Do you guys even play the game or are you just shilling?

>a genuine controversial opinion about the balance of certain vehicles
most of those end in calling each other teeb, nazi, weeb, burger or slav supported with the all time popular "posted from my" shitpost.
otherwise the good old +10 GE shitpost stops any discussion in its tracks.

Haven't played for a while, why do we have a password for the vg room?

it's memes

also who knows, I think lohere did it when the TS were having a major sperg out?

If you can't defend your vehicle against the shitpost, perhaps it is indeed overpowered.

more like the opposing side has no arguments and can only rely on shitposts.

No, it's just that 90% of the people on this shitty general don't want to actually invest into an argument and so spam a shitty meme to stop the discussion.

who always opens the thread with whiny teenagers general? New players have no way to find a thread and therefore nobody replies.

>New players

>66 seconds to repair track
>finally get done
>start moving forward
>lol no you didn't XD XD XD
>66 seconds to repair track

that was my one match for the day

try again tomorrow

I'd say it depends on the BR you playing. There is no nation that is the best on every BR.

Claps are the clubber tier nation on Br 3.0-4.0
Every plane you fly in that range is undertiered and could easily compete at a higher BR.
However they struggle hard between the 4.3-6.0 range.

Brits dominate the 5.0-6.3 BR range.Clubfire with 4 Hispanos and Tempests are just crazy good.

Soviets & Germans have their best BR range from 2.0 to 5.0. You only have good planes in that range.
While soviets have nothing over 5.0 except for the La 9. The Germans still have good planes, but they are simply outclassed by the brit planes.

Japs club everything from 3.0 till 6.3 if you know how to use your plane.

Every time

Every

Fucking

Time

You shouldn't be able to reset the repair by pressing a move button. It makes no logic sense unless they just want to piss people off.

>want to lock movement?
>hold repair key
>adds +3sec to repair time

))))))))))))))

Arcade shitter here
I've got a few tier 3 British planes and I was wondering, should I try realistic battles?

>inb4 wing rip

Realistic battles are far superior if you don't have ADHD.

>second battle of ayy lmao four matches in a row

So they don't want to add ships because of how slow they would make the game but they don't mind me driving 6 minutes before I can even engage people in RB tanks? They don't mind that the only reasonable way to fight in RB planes is to climb for 8 minutes?

Why don't they just say "fuck RB we are focusing on AB now because that is where the money is!"

You can try it but you will be clubbed. Getting from AB to RB is a hard step because you actually need knowledge about planes, maneuvers & tactics. You can't just move your mouse like crazy when somebody is on your tail.

Also you need awareness. In my first RB mattles I was flowing and out of nowhere I suddenly get boom'n'zoomed. Pretty frustrating when you were flying for about 10 minutes into battle.

they don't want to invest the massive amounts of resources actual ships would require, after the massive downhill tumble the player count has been taking the past year

so instead they're giving you tiny coast guard boats and hope to wrap up and abandon WT development by the end of 2017

???

I just went in one in my Spitfire Mk. Vb
Somehow managed to shoot down a zero before underestimating how much energy you lose on turns and crashing
I was rather lucky I think
I think I'll stick to RB now
end of blog

they can't add ships ONLY AND ONLY because they want to cram everything in one map without thinking

they are afraid of battleships shooting at cap zones, because you know well that GF will be the dominating zone (like it's 100% dominating in mixed now)

they can't stop and make up legit countermeasures like

>different objectives
>no rewards for big ships for killing groud units
>bombardment zones for ships
>actual map design
>not mixing all three together, but planes and ships only


Instead they seem to think that world war mode or combined arms is

>stick all types of vehicles into one map and let it go

they are just that retarded

>fights on big rivers like amur

>tfw no duel between tanks on the decks of two player controlled battleships with planes taking off

>No titanic style sinking with one side rising into the air as the other descends.
>No watching as tanks fight their damndest to do something while Titanic style sinking occurs, at first trying to get kills, then focusing on staying alive as long as possible till eventually they slide into the depths.

Why are people in this game so fucking shit?
Why does the game reward being shit so much?

>Why is this game so fucking shit?
FTFY

>Bongs made a light cruiser with a single 18 inch gun with heavier shells than the Yamato
>NEVER EVER

is THAT why there was a single 18" gun for Brits in Navy Field

always thought it was incredibly weird.

Ye

The Furious never ended up using its gun tho, they pulled the turret out and made it an aircraft carrier halfway through building it. Put a turret each on some Monitors I think.

Why are P-63s so low tiered?

warthunder.com/en/game/changelog/current/607/

absolutely no idea

It's a proper """meta""" plane for Americans. It's only crime is that it doesn't have a variant in Tier IV to grind jets with.

I'm a retard, enlighten me
What's happening

nothing of value

how the hell is the wyvern only 5.0 i can fight with every plane it metts and when i dont like the fight i just zoom away with 600 kmh not even mentioning how long it can hold 700+ out of a dive

meets*

who /flapjack/ here

most premium vehicles are undertiered

Comfy cockpit desu

The design team behind this were sent to the canadian wilderness for good reason.

yeah i know i play long enough but usually its at least somewhat deniable if you try hard enough but the Wyvern completely outclasses most 5.0 Br planes and if everything fails you have the "get out of jail free- card" in your retarded acceleration that allows you to just pull out and noone will be able to follow

is this thing really in war thunder?

wat

What if it wasn't the cat?

live.warthunder.com/post/486932/en/

uh neat didnt knew people make whole planes now too

They've been doing it for a while
live.warthunder.com/feed/models/

The guy who made the EE Lightning is also working on a Supermarine Swift these days

how do I get into Do335A? The instructor seems to be messed up. It feels like you can maneuver with mouse movement. Need to use keys all the time.

don't die

FLAP
JACK

>burger sparklers
Are burger players still spouting the meme that their guns are underperforming?

A5 is so clubber you can fight against every plane with it

I have 2:1 K:Ds in both A-5s, but that's mostly because the enemies are retarded, not because their planes are shit.

that's the way balancing works in this game
the average retard also does better in the A-5 than most other planes due to the amount of guns and decent armoring it has, you can easily get a pretty good k:d just by doing head-ons

>armor
>doing anything but slow your plane down
Did you start palying this game last month?

haha yeah my mistake bro, an fw 190 is not better at surviving head-ons than a beaufighter
being able to put a wall of lead in front of you and then turning away is obviously bigger, but the armoring is not a non-factor

Whats your favorito aircraft world qar 2 fighter?

strawpoll.me/11058996

spit is the only correct answer.

The 109 G6 is the worst plane in the game

>P-38 isn't an alternative
skipping this poll

sorry only the most produced mass produced relevant aircraft

hurricane is prettier than spitfire
and actually got more kills in battle of britain
checkmate, atheists

PBJ-1J

H is better.
