what's the most consistently clubby tank in the game? And can you friendly fire people in RB?

Tiger II H and T29

Anything German is ez mode

>Calliope

Wish I fucking read this before I just dropped $50 on eagles for the year.
10k gold and all the fucking premiums I've meant to get over the years
;_;

One day....

;-;

should I dump my time into the b-17 or b-24?

they seem pretty similar but I never see b-24s so idk

Both are pretty bad

B-29 is the one good part of the tree

what belts for ShVAK cannons?

kys

Anyone got the translation for this?

It was confirmed for fake so don't sweat it.

Is there any way to outright disable visible clouds?

They rape my FPS

>Spitfire LF Mk IX

Why is it allowed

>The Last Stand
That was actually kinda fun.
This game needs a versus AI mode. I'm tired of the retarded shit some players do every match.

There's campaigns, some of them are fun

really gets your neurons firing doesn't it?

>tfw being a good goy

weeb planes use the same FM in arcade and realistic

how the fuck are you killing anything in the Ki 10? it's possibly the shittiest of the starting planes.

heh, me too
got the plen, the premium and a tali for my m18 using the two packs deal

took the spit out once so far just to make some easy SL in an AB match and made 100k

>have $120 in cash on me

>Only have 3 dollars left in the bank account after buying the Romanian Duck And converted Pz IV and the the Pz II through steam

>Want more tanks and planes then I'm going go be able to get with 4500 Gold

>Can't

fml

last stand needs to be a regular rotation game mode with players on both sides

>liking literally 20 tanks shooting at you at the same time
>most shells not having a trail so you can't see where you got shot from

wew laddie

As nice as this anniversary sale is I'm kind of disappointed they didn't discount golden eagle prices and RP conversion.

50k away from the Kugelblitz. Do the memes still hold true that this thing is actually a full auto tank destroyer?

>decals aren't on sale

MOYES

yes

Nothing for tanks though

>tfw based gumby will never do this to you

But this is a Sharia controlled blue board!

what was the most technologically advanced biplane made during WW2? was it the CR.42 ?

Chaika. She even got ramjets.

If BRs were mostly decided based on the vehicle's operational date of entry, which countries would benefit the most? And which would suffer the most?

I think it was the Gladiator.

Even killed Bf 110s over Iraq.

...

germany
not sure

Germany, probably claps or teebs.

I want to say Germany would benefit the most but then I remembered that this BR system would be unable to accommodate aircraft which didn't exist and thus the entire napkinwaffe meme army would get removed. I guess they'd both benefit the most from getting real vehicles down-tiered, but they'd also suffer the most from getting their imaginary vehicles removed.

with date of entry Br you wouldnt really need napkinfwaffes

where can i check the healthpoints of bombing targets for each mode?

CR.42 was slightly faster
Gladiator had 50 cal tho

BR in arcade is garbage
probably affected by the amount of headon shitters
only explanation for the sea hurricane being 4.0 is the 20mm cannons, it doesnt perform as well as any other aircraft of BR 4.0

Generally yes
It's still insanely effective against anything with less than a flat 100mm plat or an angled 45mm plate
Deletes M41a1s, T-92s, most of Tier V with not problem

>CR.42 was slightly faster
>Gladiator had 50 cal tho

>where can i check the healthpoints of bombing targets for each mode?
In the OP

>check chart in the OP
>only health of AB and RB bombing points are shown
sooooo where can i check the ones for SB ? and tank Simulator mixed event

Air? Germany
Ground? T1 teebs, T2 Soviets, T3-T4 Germany.
T5 it would be either Soviets (time travelling ammo), or Americans (historical dates for ammo)

AFAIK SB uses same values ar RB.
Health is different for AB, because of mid-air bomb respawn.

RB is the same as SB
1.5 tons TNT equivalent

what belts should I use for the lower tier bong fighters with 7.7mm spam?

ty dooders
universal should be good

>tfw it's you and a chinaman vs 3 jap corsairs

wich one has the biggest map? IL-2 BoS or WT SB ?
wich one has less distance between enemy and allied airfields

>captured aircraft

WT has a couple of 128*128 km maps, I don't know about BoS tho

Po-2, the only biplane in history with a documented jet kill.
(maneuver kill vs. american F-94 over Korea)

>Can't be fucked writing out the information for each vehicle
>Just remove the lot and link to the wiki

A shame, I liked reading them whilst waiting for a match.

Should've have just got that former FAA pilot that occasionally writes articles on the main site for to do the job.

Where are you wearing your Halloween decorations?

>gf will be flooded with t-34-100s in a few hours

what speed should I climb at in plens?

Is pack with Panzer IV/70(A) worth getting? Discount Eagles are nice, but it's not like I'm hurting on them.

240-280 IAS depending on the plane

The IV/70(A) is absolutely dogshit

The duck is okay, but you can get it in the normal tree, the pz IV/70 is just worse than the main tree one.

It comes with the HS-129B-2,4k GE and 15d premium as well

More alt. camos when?

A the same time though, the IV/70(A) has a lower br then the one in the main tree.

The one in the main tree will get into 6.3 games more often then you would think. 6.3 br is pretty popular. IS-2 and T-44 type games

IS-2 is 6.0 and T-44 is unplayed because its shit.

why did people have so much trouble taking down planes in ww2 if all they need to do is fire a few shots at their tail and watch them fall to the ground?

because that's what this fucking game is telling me

is the G5N the hardest aircraft to land in this game? i gave it a few tries in SB but the tail always touches the ground no matter what (it has no tail wheel)

land faster then?

>trying to find an accurate representation of WW2 in war thunder
ok that could be the problem i guess
but then the tail could still go down if i brake

I clearly see a tail wheel in that picture.

>but then the tail could still go down if i brake
how?

Because WWII pilots didn't sit in a computer chair pointing their mouse at pixels on a screen to get a kill, you fucking autist.

The (V) one can easily take on anything it encounters even if it gets uptiered. I use it a lot and I'm rarely seeing 6.3 games.

IRL WW2 planes didn't have fly-by-wire.
Also having one and only life to spare makes most people care more about staying alive, than getting kill

>2 410s collide in the first second of the match
>"Excellent" from the whole team

Because you're cold and you haven't slept well and you're not eating well and it's not very comfy in your hard seat in your cramped cockpit and your CO is an asshole and your best friend died a few days ago.

its not a wheel
even if it was, when the tail goes down it wouldn't touch the ground due to the inclination

did tanks in real life reverse after every shot to hide like little bitches while reloading? or use the geography to shoot from behind a mountain so that the target couldnt even see the tank

They would go hull down when presented with a chance, but no, they normally would not go full peek-a-boo.
