>it's a crit to a sabrenigger's right wing does fuck all to it episode

>warblunder

ever thought about getting gud ?

which is better/easier to use
Yak-30 or La-15

Yak-30 doesn't rip itself at high speeds, iirc.

get a life nerd

the La shits itself under own power without dive

reminder that Bf-109s outturn Yak-3s

Don't let the wehraboos tell you otherwise

oh wow you are right ^____^

be sure to turnfight any yak 3 you meet from now on

surprise surfuckingprise
it's naziboos you moron

wehraboo makes way more sense no matter how you look at it but it's slightly harder for a metally challenged retard like you to write so there's no point on trying

holy shit this thing just does nothing but take advantage of the playerbase's abhorrent situational awareness
I need to get some bushes on this thing

goddamn it Veeky Forums ate my pic

how do i corsair

boom and zoom?

Energy fighting leaning towards BnZ.

The Tu-4 can protect itself from 2km away in all directions. BV 238 is a flying whale that cannot shoot you from the bottom. I've taken several down just by attacking from below. It's especially hell climbing up to meet Tu-4s, let alone B-29s, B-17s if they're paying attention. But the BV 238 is definitely good, so I'm not ruling out raising its BR, though I'm not familiar with its speed.

BV is about 330+ kph with WEP easily

That's incredibly slow compared to some of the shit it faces, such as the P-39 that I was using to purposely get matched with them.

blindspots are one thing.
Other is that any bomber big/slow enough to be unable to manouver, is just going to end up P-47 / Hellcat food, sprayed and lit on fire from over a kilometer.

Yeah, that's one of the points I was implying. The thing with the Tu-4, or even the B-29 is that they're fucking fast. Try to catch one at 8km altitude and it has a very good chance of outrunning you while pouring hot lead into your face at the same time. This is why these planes are where they are right now, especially the Tu-4.

>M19 has two 40mms that can pen up to 79mm

>americancer will defend this

I don't know why anyone is excited by cockpits, it only means more bomber spam

>ZSU gets 107mm pen HVAP at 4.7
>slavs will defend this

>one gun
>under 200RPM
>double the reload rate
>even more lined with ammo
"no"
if you've ever gotten killed by a ZSU-37, hang yourself

How did gaijin manage to fuck up tank SB view so hard? Can they do anything right?

It means less if they don't have UFO gunner view

It's only bad when it's German.

the devblog says nothing about gunner view

dont think the gunner view will change
would be far cooler than cockpits tho imo

doesn't matter
bomber cockpits
maximum comfy

>not wanting this
youtube.com/watch?v=pOdB5qo2ngY

why did noone tell me that this plane is actually fun?

did they do anything about the FM? last time i flew it after it was added it handled like a fuckin brick

yeah it's really fucking fun
pretty bad as an attacker but really good as a low-med alt fighter

It's always been underrated.

>mfw Pe-8 and Tu-4 cockpits are coming
is gaijin actually doing things right now?
with how they've been acting, I can expect ATGM deadzones and fixed HEAT any time now

>ATGM deadzone
do you mean the IT 1 ? its actually already working as intended
the first 300 meters the operator is not able to guide it but the missile is "hot" the second it leaves the rail

no my friend
IRL, the ATGM had to arm the charge and it took about 1.5 seconds after it left the launcher, which equated to about 300m
basically all ATGMs had a minimum firing distance or they wouldn't arm
think of a torpedo

when

>bomber cockpits
>they'll still won't have a cockpit for the beaufighter

imma guess they will ad cockpit for everything that doesnt have it yet

>In update 1.65 we plan to introduce one of the most anticipated features in Simulator battles: 3D cockpits for all aircraft that do not have them at the moment.
>all aircraft that do not have them

they said they're adding a cockpit for EVERYTHING, not just bombers

when

Which attackers/bombers are you going to relax in when cockpits are out?

B57s

>subs
if they add big ships I wouldn't be surprised if gaijin added subs to have an upper hand on WoWS

like steel ocean? oh wait

TB-3
Yer-2 Early Diesel
Pe-8
Tu-2
Tu-4
B-17
Fw-200
Halifax
G5N1
G8N1

...

steel ocean is clunky , runs like ass ,looks like ass , has no players and the devs are just milking the dying cow at this point

apart from those problems its actually better than WOWS imo

B25/PBJ
B17
B24
B29
B57s
BV238
Arados
He111

Are the cockpits going to be a sim only thing or on all gamemodes?

>Are the cockpits going to be a sim only thing or on all gamemodes
take a wild fucking guess

>Are the cockpits going to be a sim only thing or on all gamemodes?

since when do the hispanos recoil so hard? i just missed half my burst in a headon because i couldnt be bothered to readjust

>waaah why do my quantum phaser cannons have recoil

im not against that change i was merely asking when they gave them recoil

balans

They always had a hefty recoil, though.
