FIRST FOR SHIPS ARE FOR FAGS!

*bombs u*

>clap running his mouth while sitting on his airfield
>check his player card, lvl 70
>check him on thunderskill, 51% efficiency
Really makes one ponder the possibilities

>looking at thunderskill

can confirm, /wowsg/ is gay as fuck

>HNLMS Abraham Crijnssen was a Jan van Amstel-class minesweeper of the Royal Netherlands Navy (RNN). Built during the 1930s, she was based in the Netherlands East Indies when Japan attacked at the end of 1941. Ordered to retreat to Australia, the ship was disguised as a tropical island to avoid detection, and was the last Dutch ship to escape from the region.
Japs are retarded.

Threadly reminder to do your duty and purge the world of the subhuman filth known as slavs.

Threadly reminder that the slav is both honorable and virtuous, and a second reminder that you eat from his hand by his good grace.

Second threadly reminder that slavs pose the single greatest threat to the continued prosperity and morality of Western society and must be exterminated like the roaches they are.

10th threadly reminder that all non 1st world players should be killed on sight regardless of teammate or not, as to clense the game from absolutely incompetence

Third threadly reminder that the naziboo above me needs to shut up and delet his posts. Fourth threadly reminder that Slavs won the war.

God damn the Type 140 is absolute bully mode

Reminder that Europe is a failed experiment because they allowed the scum known as slavs to infiltrate and corrupt their people.

>you hate the proud Slavic race? Really user?

this is pretty cool tbqh

...

Reminder that the greatest way to serve your nation is to drive out the slav.

Kys

>oh no I've been found out
lmao

Kys kys kys kys

Reminder to educate your friends and family about the slavic menace; making the enemy known is the first step to vanquishing it.

>slavs
>worse than muslims or blacks
Jamal get out.

Fuck off Shekelberg. Everyone knows its the Jews who are really the enemy.

Truly the real enemy of civilization is man.

Cant we all just get along?

Anime

Physically remove communists.

This filename really pisses me off. How can you confuse a mod44 with an IS-3?

LAMO XD TROLLED

Reminder that those espousing peace or friendship with the slav is either a useful idiot or a traitor.

ebin

The room feature for SB was such a good addition holy shit

Any tier 3 and 4 russian tanks that are worth skipping?

this was a really fun match

now we need this feature but for tank simulator

Don't bother with the heavy line unless you're willing to sacrifice your soul for the T-10M, which is admittedly a good tank. Just grab yourself an IT-1 and get to that T-55A railgun quickly.

all the T3 heavy tanks tbqh

BAKA gaijew wont just discount the T29 and has to bundle it with 2 other shitty packs. I just want the T29 pack at 20 bucks

bump

>mk4lw on spain
>team shits the bed and dies without doing anything
>me and two others vs full team of cl13s and mig17s
>one dies but me and a a-5 manage to make it to airfield cover
>can't afford to slow down to dodge a cl13 with a 17 right behind him so I pull hard elevator at 850km/h IAS
>tear left wing but make both miss
>still flyable
>still able to dodge by manually causing uncontrollable rolls that I can recover from
>soon someone manages to get a hit in but it's my right wing
>plane is now fully controllable and I manage to kill a mig17 before dying
I fucking love meteors.

>I bounced off of this with the stock shell from the T34 at a range of 400m
what?
is there something I'm missing here?
at that range the shell should have still penetrated, because at 500m and against a 60degree slope/angle it has 210mm of pen
is this just another case of memebouncing, like how the T-44's UFP will bounce APDS from a Cent Mk 3 even when fired point blank??

post camo reviews

Do any actually work on you? That Japanese blue dot shit is weird.

FV4202 with basic desert camo on Sinai is maximum stealth mode.

>enemy rams me and flies away unharmed

angle of impact != angle of armor sloping

if the armor is sloped at 60 degrees, you should check the value at 30 degrees in the penetration table

How are you supposed to deal with fighters as an attacker? Try to dogfight? Run away?

>ramming enemy bombers who set you on fire to deny them the kill

depends on attacker, mostly run away.

A-36

Either combat flaps can help against ppl who dont use em or take biggest bombs and use 2 sec fuse delay, whenver some1 gets behind (0.58km)you near ground level drop bombs and watch em blow up

>planes still not deleted
They add nothing of value to the game with their gay ass nametagchasing, mouthbreathing mouseaces

>M4A3(((105)))
>105mm HEAT shot (1.6 kg of TNT) pens literally %any tank% under turret
>"Critical Hit!" )
>"Hit!" ))
>"Hit!" )))
>"Hit!" XD
>"Kill assist!" :^)

THE FUCKING SHIT IS THAT?! WHTA THE LITERAL FUCK?! ALL I CAN DO ON THIS SHIT IS FARM ASSIST WHILE BEING INSTA-GIBBED BY FUCKING KVs, T-34, PzIV and Stugs
WHEREE THE FUCK DOES IT END?!?!

>get Centurion mk3
>literally the shittest luck playing the tank

what the actual fuck is this shit? Shit like hitting an ammo rack and not blowing it up, killing gunner and getting a non-pen, and getting insta killed keeps on happening.

you're faster than pretty much anything, so just run

like other P-51s and most american planes you can also dogfight a bit with 109s before you run out of speed

what are japanese tier 4 tanks like?

they have HEAT-FS

Type60 is a meme
Type61 has too little zoom
Stas have way too much zoom and are uberslow
Duster is duster

>6.3 with HEATFS and the M46 got a BR bump within one patch of getting it

Constant and Sharp

>worst tier 4 tank got heat-fs and no br increase

fuggg

>Tier 4 tank with HEATFS that never faces nazibunkers

The HEATFS is overkill no?

Is ships out yet, last time I checked was early 2017

T. IS6

>The HEATFS is overkill no?

For the ST-A?
A big, fat, NO!

without heat-fs STA tanks are much worse than t34-85 series

STA-2 worth the extra grind?

you dont really have choice if ye want to get to tier 5

oh fuck me you're right

this is a nightmare

)))

new BR's when ?

>Play german tanks
>three enemy ground attack aircraft fluing around before I even see the cap point
>killed by rockets a minute later

Welcome to fighting against Americans in RB GF.

T-thanks.

spitnigger btfo. r8 my aim, bros.

fuck off ledditer

WHEN

Die cancer, cold war nigger.

Fuck off you stupid faggot blame the fucking devs for the stupid BR

Grinding stock 109 K4 is like getting acid coated razor blades shoved up your asshole. Grinding stock TA's is like getting lime juice and salt-marinated glass shards stuffed into your dickhole.

This goofy looking motherfucker is the most cucked shape a tank can be.

Prove me wrong

>99% GPU usage in the hangar
>40% GPU usage in battle
FOR WHAT PURPOSE?

IKTF. Still grinding for TA154s engine upgrade and Silver Sheckels to buy a jet with

the water hurts my fucking eyes

What about it gives you the brain pain, user?

not him but the sea doesn't look like that

Remove SL from the game. The grind is already unbearable for t5 tanks and sometimes I want to be allowed to play a Ki-84.

I know it isn't accurate, but playing with it there didn't bother me so much. All I really want from the game for botes anyway is inclement weather, battles in storm conditions would be pretty neato.

They've said they're working on it. If you ever tried to land a boteplane on stormy or even slightly choppy seas before they took it out to work on it then you know it's good they're taking some time.

Not that guy, but it's too uniform, if you look at and especially a bit below and to the left of the propeller, every wave is almost the same, and are even arranged in a grid. Another issue with the uniformity is that there are no whitecaps or irregularities. Not to mention, boats don't really create much of wakes just an effect right next to the boat and bit of foam behind and they cut through the water like they're sailing through jello.

SL purchases are a significant portion of gaijin's real money income, and especially after tanks (it's no wonder they made using them so SL expensive while making the income extremely SL (as well as RP of course))) poor) Anton said SL was a big income source in an ama.

Overall it looks pretty nice and they're using some nvidia meme '''tech''' and it may be an uncanny valley thing about it looking odd.

I'm so glad I'm in Tier 5 now. There seems to be less retarded teammates. (playing as soviets 7.3). Now to get America and Germany to 5

>release Italian tree
>German tree is still full of spaghetti
>Italian tree has German and American loaners
wtf was the point

...

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS ITALIAN SHIT?
THIS SHIT BLOW THE SHIT UP ALL FUCKING ALLIES PLANE AND MINE

What's your favorite plane in terms of aesthetics?

Me 262 for jets.
P-38 for props.

No, see, the F-84G was totally a unique Italian invention. That's they get one and the burgers don't!

Your teammates are exactly as retarded, but that BR for slavs is retard-proof.

must be in-game ?

F-22.

Such an aesthetic plane.
