first for removing chance to extinguish your tank in water)))))

Been listening to bagpipes and drums for an hour any good Scot armor markings?

Keep me posted. I'm mildly interested in including the SU-122-54 instead of the T-44-100 in my 7.3 lineup.

SPAGHETTIS PLANES WHEN ????

How do you properly used Mouse+Keyboard in dogfights in RB?

USe keyboard to meuber while tracking the enemy with right click then once you're behind him aim with the mouse, making adjustments with A and D for rollrate

>round hits hill
>eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Why do people bitch about ultra slav? Turning shadows and grass off does the same thing by the looks of it when we are talking advantages.

>go fast
>rip wings
Does this even make sense? I think it would be more realistic to simply have our elevator controls lock up so hard you can't pull out of a dive and then you crash.

>you share the board with retards like this

feels like shit... stock ammo is same as 5.7 tank. Also im just having bad luck with, having even hard time penning leopard or m60 from side

...

devblog ?

why do german pilots suck ass?

Idk i had a high br game where we clubbed spitfires and b29s at high alt with our doras/Ta-152
A rarity but for one, it was fun.

Can somebody tell me where are allied fuel depos ?

Tell me son, have you seen any King Tigers around here?

Why would they keep the mg port uncovered?

No, all king tigers are in west fighting against better tanks

>still no screenshots of rocket pods

Devserver bros how much rp is the starship?

Use the P-80 for 7.0 GF or keep the F8F Bearcat?

WEW
E
W

wat?

Is that some advanced anti-missile active defense system ?

>tfw arty range always seems unreasonably large

The 109k is such a colossal piece of shit

Not once it's spaded the grind is one of the worst in the German tree though

Are the 20mm Hispanos nerfed after the patch?

yet another nerf to the objectively most skilled nation in the game

What do you mean? They just buffed the US hard.

So yes?

We're talking Britain here

But you (or another user) said most skilled nation, that isn't England.

how to kill an is-6 without being an 8.0 tank?

Don't use APCR.
It has a nice weakspot on the front.
Flank
If you find yourself behind or beside one, shoot the back of the turret, thats where the ammo is

where is the weak spot?
ive hit it everywhere I can think of with my HEAT
even the sides wont pen

>in t95
>solid shot into engine
>yellow
)))))))))

You see how the turret rounds out in the front?
Shoot the lower half of that and the round usually bounces down and sometimes penetrates. Just shoot the gun and the tracks, try to get a friendly to flank.

>Solid shot
>Not APHE
this is why.

What's the fastest way to get an arseload of money? I'm about to unlock the F-86A-5 and I only have half the lions I need.

Fly a good plane, preferably with premium.
P-40, F4F-4, F6F-5N, F8F-1B, F-82, XP-55. Alternatively be a really good goy and spend some money on some eagles to get some lions.

Use a low tier premium aircraft to club new players

tier 3, do what you want. Even crashing into ground you makes profit

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

judging by your stats you arent clubbing anything

You cant
Try to bounce from its lower turrent into the hull.
Aim for the hatches on the turret top
If nothing helps, detrack it so that others can kill it

Seal club people with the A7M2 if you have it

Why are American tanks so bad...

I just want to get that fucking neddlenose patton, but this grind is fucking awful and I'm only at the fucking T25...

Grind for tanks is fucking unbearable.

Soviet tank grind was fucking fun.

English tank grind was alright.

German tank grind was bearable

This American tank grind makes me want to stop playing altogether.

I died my way through the m103

Now, with that nice HEAT shell, i can finally make some RP
The last good american Tank was the M26 Pershing, but i dont play it anymore since the IS6 is in BR range

>warblunder

LOL!

Well it is fucking insane when you compare it to plane grind.

1.69 fucking when

>Jingles right now

lmao what a cunt

Who?

What happened?

I wonder if he is really a cunt

>English tank grind was alright.
How far did you get? I gave up at the Avenger/Comet stage, because it was just the worst.

You... don't own the Po-2, do you?

Can't watch videos right now, can I get a /quickrundown/?
Seeing it's Jungles, I bet it's got to do something with why he stopped playing WT.

He's just an autistic manchild.

Is it about some WoT drama? Why the fuck are you posting about this, nobody gives a fuck.

basically got copyright struck by WG and so on but unlikely to boycott WoT

tl;dr he's damage controlling for wargaming by spreading lies about why he stopped playing war thunder

I.... really liked their light tanks. Some people like the Shermans, but I found them to be utter cancer. M24 is a beauty though.

380,000

Bearcat.

)))) You can do this from >500m, I believe!

Manymiles just posted a bit of a rant about it...

One of the WoT Youtubers posted a sweary rant about Wargaming's new premium. Armour so strong that you can only pen it with premium ammo and a weak gun that also requires premium to do anything. WG went to him and threatened to copyright strike all his WoT videos if he didn't take it down... stripped him of his community status too. Then they stripped another youtuber of his too, for no real reason.

Jingles says he was pissed, but now seems to be in damage control mode.

Miles is just pissed that Jingles was saying that Gaijin were threatening to copyright strike people who showed War Thunder bugs on youtube... which is false (they once asked slick to take-down an aim-bot video he'd uploaded).

Nothing.

It's inert to any 7.0 tank.

That's why we need to DDOS Gaijin Servers.

whats the difference between rbs and rs rockets ?

soon.

and ofcourse its against russians

>The enemy airfield one-shots you even after you break away on a fighter that's running its airfield

However every time I'm reloading or repairing on my own airfield, any fucking enemy fighter can fly right in and strafe me no problem while it easily flies away and out of our range of aa.

Love it...

Jingles quit War Thunder because he's probably too fucking old and probably doesn't has the reflexes nor does he want to put the effort in showcasing a good game that HE was playing

Thats not bad user.

>4 teammates dogfighting an enemy right above his airfield
>every single AAA gun is targeting me even though I'm 5 km away from the airfield and not a threat to the guy
It just targets whoever gets there first and doesn't stop until you get out of the arbitrary AAA zone. And let's not even talk about how these AAA guns can track a jet going transonic with laser and satellite-tier accuracy, or their retarded rate of fire, or how if they hit you once you are automatically dead since there is literally a timer that decides how long you're allowed to be in the AAA zone

My nigger

I almost never see anyone flying it. If people knew how good it actually is at 7.0 they'd spam it. If it had nose cannons it would be a beast.

Is it just me, or are they more accurate against faster targets too?

I like those planes
I like the Ju-87G too but in BOS

Is there any point on playing arcade? Other than practicing and testing out new planes

Arcade is what you play when you're starting out or when you want to grind parts for stock vehicles.

RB is the way to go

Hey, user, how is the Patton series? I'm about to unlock the M46.

I only fly the He-100D and MC 202

I don't know, but I get that impression too
>fly to enemy airfield in a prop, doing maximum 500 kph
>last much longer than when doing the same with a jet at 1100 kph
The speed those guns would have to be traversing at in order to track a plane doing a near supersonic pass over the runway at near ground level is ridiculous, but in war thunder they can do it. And these are WW2 guns, manually operated by people

>He-100D
Is it any good nowadays? I remember people said it was useless shit when it was introduced. I never bothered grinding it

>grinding
Literally 2/3 games

It's absolutely sanic.

Doesn't turn too well for its tier but it accelerates very well and climbs very well too.
And it's absolutely sanic.

Just don't get hit. (And you shouldn't get hit if you're careful)

The guns were pretty bad, but this patch buffed machine guns in general.
It's better now, it was never too bad.
Just a superior FM with inferior load out.

If it had 2 mg 151/15 or 20s, it would still be a great plane at 3.0 let alone 1.7.

Oh, and don't fight bombers unless you are 100% sure they won't hit you.

I wasn't all that fond of the M46, and that was during the time before the Ru251 and IS-6 fags shitting up that br. Overall you'll probably wont like it, and you just wont rack up "a lot" of tank kill with it.

I think everyone would like the patton like more if fucking Gaijin didn't have the Patton's m82 round as an unlock. With that APCBC round you could AT LEAST get kills by flank maneuvers.

And I like the M47 solely on aesthetics, but it's good when you get the CHEAT-FS

How come we get the MC205 and the G.55 but not the Re.2005

patch this week probably

>Find some user mission where you can drive the Leo 2 and T-90
>Every time I fire the smoke grenades my display driver crashes and I get a bluescreen

Wew

small family business ))))))
but no they'll probably add the Re. line later for sure.

I am VERY tempted to buy the G.55 starter pack, but I promised myself I'd never give Gaijin money again

Just tell me when will pasta planes be available for the bad goys who didn't preorder

>If people knew how good it actually is
same goes for b7a2, turns like spitfire, can actually out turn some, or it was somebody who has no idea what flaps are
