Fucking hell

is the Ki-87 any good?

thinking of getting a jap plane to grind out the tree with

...

good for a high altitude fighting that never happens. just talisman the n1k2

>Cougar flies like a Vampire
so it's slow as shit?
how's swingfire

reason he got one reply is because he don't know shit

It doesn't fly like a Vampire. If anything it's more like a slightly faster Venom. Acceleration sub 800 kph is okay, dive speed is good, rollrate and turnrate are great, top speed is okay.

i thought it's because of the bump limit

>t62 comes out
>day one and game is full of them

Meanwhile not much of new leopards to be seen on day two

>unlocking new leo
>play old leo
>remember why i quit t5
and there goes all my enthusiasm

at least i saw orange cuck get murdered

Who is still a /tetrarchmaniac/ even after rank 3 ?

(well, only in arcade of course)

i am fairly sure soviet tanks are the most popular

>british tank design
lmao

Tanks IRL weren't really designed with mouse aim in mind

why isnt gaijin fixing this bs? this is a problem with brit tanks since like always

Why bully ? British tanks are the best after american, german and sovietic ones

shitposting aside can this actually bounce enemy shells irl?
also how come germans and russians came up with decent looking designs while pretty much every brit tank (mainly turrets) looks like it was either put together by some scrap metal boxes and tubes or some alien tumor looking shit

>mouse not used to control elevation and deflection directly

kinda disappointed, tank combat in terms of mechanics is nothing more than slower fps

So, did they completely nerf light pillboxes damage model?
Because i have a replay of a I-15 killing a few with MG fire.

battle badger xD

You have to be relatively close

Funny because before this update 23mm VYa with AP-I on the IL-2 barely scratched them.
While .50s cut through them like laser beams ofc.

>t. ivan_ivanovich_ivanovsky_RUS1

I am just saying that it is weird to go from 23mm autocannons barely being able to damage them to rifle caliber machineguns destroying them in a short burst.
But then again Russian 7.62 has always had highly exaggerated target effects in this game.

Centurion was designed in 1944, when Panther was golden standard of armor protection.
4202 was a testbed vehicle, not combat vehicle. It was designed to prove new techs and concepts worthwhile, not to face enemy. It would be perfectly understable if they didn't increase armor protection where parts don't differ from standard production model

What's even the point of the southern part of Hurtgen? It's fucking mountain goat territory and isn't fun to drive through or fight in.

Just cuck my booster up.

I JUST WANT THAT FUCKING 800 GOD DAMN IT.

reminder that a 50% booster is faster than a 200% victory on all 5 nations each day

Noice

wew, first huge that wasn't a wager in months

>literal peewees ITT

What, do you not like kiwis

Swim across the ditch and find out you little beetroot

Who /comfy/ here?

I would rather have wager t b h

>Slavs creeping into EU servers AGAIN and fucking with everyones ping

>Get in range to shit them down
>Ping spikes to 500; you're guns don't work, and they warp of the screen

EU server is literally Little Rodina

Not to mention they can't into using normal fucking characters in chat, fucking slav runes everywhere.
And when you ask them to type in fucking english they just go XAXAXA at you.

Mind you they are slightly less annoying then the fucking brazilians on US.

>learn russian))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

German open top TD's are so much more comfy than the US ones

>3300 warbonds in 1 month

Can it be done?

get good, shitter

>Not having it for free from gaijin year ago

you can get 240 per day iirc (120 tank 120 air) or something along that so yes it is possible but grindy af

Must have missed it, I took many breaks from the game when the grind pissed me off too much

>possible but grindy af

What else is new.

Anyways I'm gonna try for it.

>Can it be done?
Not the question that should be asked.
Short 75 is shit, will probably always be shit.
It was decent once when its HEAT rounds actually worked most of the time.

oh shuddup the III N is extremely fun since it meets enemies it can oneshot with HEAT 99% of the time and the other 1% are churchills you can cripple with one shot and take out slowly
the 3,3 second reload + 100mm pen HEAT at 3.0 is deadly (it also has decent armor on the hull and is good for baiting shots)

Wanna thank the user who told me to do barrel rolls when planes got on my six

Made me survive longer, and almost break out but there were 2 of them firing at me madly and I was low on the deck already so I died eventually

But I felt like I had a fighting chance at least with the barrel rolls they had to really work to get me and I at least baited them all the way back to our spawn

wat

>t. shitter who fell for the premium pz III meme

Nice glad it's helping. You need to learn rolling scissors, as after you learn to force overshoots that is the next step to master in a reversal.

BUILD A WALL AND THE USSR IS GONNA PAY FOR IT

>rolling scissors

And then high yo-yo to get on their six right?

I'll try these all out too thanks

gotta keep your cock somewhere safe

>people bitching about M36 being overtiered
fucking how?
in a meta where mobility is king its lightyears stronger than the terrible T25 and M26 and nobody complains about their BR as much as the M36.

I dont know why, but the tank ones are always steep as fuck. It's just a whatever tier two that'll be at 50% off when Christmas comes around.

Personally the emblem looks cool. So I'll be going after that.

If you do the rolling scissors right, you should be able to get a snapshot oppertunity

AHAHAAHAHA~
Get reckt you fucking fagget!

That is a cool emblem

Also, I can purchase planes required to get the next one or unlock the next tier but I don't have to crew them if I don't want to right? To save some lions and shit

Did it get lowered? Isn't 6.3?

Care to explain?

Is there a way to rearrange tank ammo order before the battle so I dont have to waste a round of AP to switch to HEAT etc?

put one extra round of what you start with

not correct and its even worse.
you can get 20+40+80=140 warbonds per day because planes & tanks aswell as AB & RB are shared.

>Can it be done?
If you think you can manage to complete all 3 dailies for 23,5 days out of 31 go for it.
tried it twice and I say you need to have severe autism to be able to do it. I always grind for the emblem and as many boosters as I can afford with the rest.
Others try to farm 1500 warbonds for bushes but since they fucked us all over by offering only one per box instead of 5 bushes box like they used to I dont bother with that.

the point is you want to be make a double helix pattern with him, and by having your nose turning into him when you cross trajectory (scissor) hopefully you will have brief moments where you will get a short burst shot off as he flies in front of you

crude pic related

click the ammo in the spawn select screen

oh dang i thought its split for tank and air at least

You're merely describing the shape of the rolling scissors.

To actually win, you need to pull low energy turns with the lift vector pointed behind the enemy when low, and at the top highest amount of G possible with lift vector in lead.

how you do this with mouseaim is something im not quite sure, i joystick

yes select your tank and go to test drive.
you can switch ammo order at the top with the order being left to right.
you dont have to start the test drive since the game saves that order on the spot.

the M36 is still 6.3 while the T25 is 6.0 and the M26 is 6.3

before spawning click on ammo icon

The moon is pretty low res. I'm suprised they haven't fixed that yet.

Also night tank battles are a clusterfuck. It's pure luck.

On what settings do you play? I play on movie and the moon looks awesome.

needs to be 5.7 or have it's reload reduced to being fucking faster than an M26/T25

it's an open top TD with no armor, it better fucking reload faster than the medium tank, not slower

Most things maxed.

There's really no reason why it would look so much worse than everything else.

I just noticed VR mode. That's new, what does it do? Should I disable it if I don't play with goggles?

These are my settings and the moon looks glorious.

>no armor
are you implying that both the M26/T25 can survive a single nazi/slav shot?
i hope not.

Weird. I maxed terrain deformation and shadows now, I kinda forgot about that, maybe that'll do the trick. Or maybe your anisotropy and AA just smooth it over for you.

no, but they can survived getting strafed by fighters which is more important

fighters cant win games and you are more likely to meet 1000 kg bombs at 6.3
the mobility and fast turret speed make up for the open top.

killed by bot, I think

it's quite common lately

last time it happened to me is 3-4 major patches ago when i got onehit killed by a Pz IV in my bulldog from across the fucking map through a shitload of trees and bushes

you have to take out atleast 6 bots before getting ninjapenned
