/wtg/ - War Thunder General

What am I in for?
My first Rank 5 tank.

when

>))))

it's one of the best tanks in the game

We should shoot underage at sight.

switchable strafer noses when

If I can obviously tell some guy is dogging after an enemy plane, or reloading after clearly incapacitating an enemy tank that's nearby, I intentionally let him take the kill.

It sucks when you're dealing all the damage to an enemy, and somebody grazes the plane and gets the kill, or deletes the 2nd last crew member of a tank, essentially punishing you with vastly lower amounts of SL/RP all because you didn't hit the one-shot sweet spot.

G6 is a worse G2 at a higher BR.

Oh shit I wondered why I had all that money after buying the tank.

When?

Reminder there is no Russian bias for ground forces only German bias fact

Hopefully never.

There's still plenty of WWII and early-mid Cold War vehicles to be added.

this has been true since the cbt

When??

...

why does gaijin do this to us

I guess the G2 is the last 109 worth using then. What a shame.

I would main the MC205 Veltro if they ever add it into the game

JG508 spotted

You will find no planes worth your time in german tier 4. The quicker you accept this, the less painful the grind will be.

As long as the breda guns are still shooting spaghetti instead of bullets I don't care if they ever do. I love the 202 but it can be a pain in the ass to bring someone down sometimes.

+10 GE!

Have you played a 190D in a span of a year or so? The Dora has been hit hard by nerfs while Spitfires and La-9s have been steadily buffed.

spitfires I agree but the La-9 is a heap of garbage and you need to get good if you actually get killed by it

we need to purge shitters and get JG508 back into top 20 on thunderskill

I play it almost every day and it was OP before so idc that it got nerfed. Spitfires will always be a bit of a problem but I've learned to deal with it. I'm sitting at just over 2/1 kdr in my D9.

>Wah Wah something with good mobility, a low profile and a good gun can kill my leopard which also has good mobility, a low profile and a good gun!

why is this tank so underrated
I haven't seen one in months

The stock grind puts off a lot of players from ever touching it.

Stock is suffering

>posted from my difficult to use racecar tank destroyer while I shitpost on the forums about nazi bias

Because it takes a fucking eternity grinding through the overtiered shitpiles that are the M4 series, T25, M26, M46 and M47s.

Because by the time you grind past the same fucking APHE you've been using since the T25 you're well on the way to unlocking the M60.

Why should I be considerate for a community that I largely find to be disgusting and possibly the most easily hatable in any game I've ever played?

>drive car at full speed to a concrete wall
>die
FUCK GAIJIN FUCKING SLAV HOLOCAUST WHEN

All the shills who defended the grind being worsened because they'd have nothing to unlock unironically GASSED when?

Can Germans get some new fucking decals already? I was actually excited to see a pinup girl for Germany (and managing to unlock it).

I mean, give us some new slogans, unit numbers, symbols, SOMETHING

Whatever happened to eNtaK?
Did he kill himself?

>slavshits and naziboos shitposting at each other for being OP
>meanwhile I'm getting shat on by both just trying to get out of lategame burger stock hell

Just buy a T29 already and rule over anything below 6.7 range for a while

If you could remove one plane and one tank from the game what would you remove? For me it would be the Horten 229 and the t-62.

he got smart and quit before wt went even shittier than before

Ho-229 and IT-1

I thought the M103 and the Pattons would have good guns so I'm trying to grind out their modules. Maybe HEATFS can still save them.

horten and between the it-1 and the cancerjagpanzer I dont know which

You NEED HEAT-FS on any Western tank since AP, APCR and APDS all have a 90% chance to bounce off a 1mm piece of Russian wood at 89 degrees. They also aren't handed some of the best ammo types right off the bat unlike Soviets who start with nuke rounds.

I was under no impression the M47/M48 90mm would be any good without HEAT but I'm still underwhelmed by the 105mm and triggered by the 120mm. The most powerful tank gun the US ever put into service and it's absolutely pathetic ingame.

>The most powerful tank gun the US ever put into service
are you high rn?

sekrit dokument shows apcr is solid shot. is mean is pass through armor without spall or fragment, make armor disappear into space

git gud with aiming is problem of yuo )))))))))

the 152mm sheridan gun is the largest caliber cannon the U.S has used in tanks

...

what does this have to do with what he said

Obviously it's penetrator design was pretty primitive since it was just a fuckoff huge slug compared to long-rod penetrators on the 105mm and the 120mm M256 but in terms of muzzle energy it edges out even M829. It'd be pretty worthless against modern or even mid-Cold War tanks unless they made an APDS round for it but it should be gutting anything it penetrates.

The 152mm on the Sheridan had too low muzzle velocity to be any good with KE rounds though the long-barreled one that was going to be on the MBT-70 would have had pretty good performance with APFSDS.

SPAA. Just stick with teammates and spam at tracks and barrels.

>totally-historical APHE belts

Fired from clips.

The tank historically carried quite a bit of APHE. Once ZSU-23-4s trickled in and replaced it, it started to carry a lot of APHE instead.

Doesn't change the fact it was a really bad idea to add it to the game.

It was designed as a TD after all, before the 57mm became obsolete and they made it into an SPAAG

>ZSU designation
>"designed as a TD"

if you say so ivan

I read somewhere that its Ob'yekt prototype was supposed to be a TD, but it was scrapped and rebuilt into AA, hence the ZSU designation.

Should I be flying the N1K at 5.7 or 6.3?

How do I hit shit in RB air?

Not being bad

is it just me or are american tanks kind of shit?

They're shit.
