75 puma is shit

>A good vehicle is shit
git
gud

It's gr8 I've been removing jumbos all day with it

This along with the big moscow map has been in the game for a fairly long time, it's just been extremely rare. They might've changed the chance to get it in a recent update or you just got really ""lucky"". lucky in quotes because it's a big ass map with pretty much nothing to do.

"""good"""

>Is it my turn to remove jumbo yet, Hans?
>After this one, Müller.

the sturmpanzer can remove jumbos alot easier

Dicker Max can remove Jumbos very easily.

The Jagdpanther can remove them pretty easily desu

yes and it is also superior to the 75mm puma

So can the Maus.

>Fuck all armor
>Fuck all mobility
>1.3 BR higher
>Superior
Very good opinion.
Dat depression though

Probably, because I got it 3 times today, never before. It's 100% dogshit.
>mixed games only
>takes 15 minutes to make contact at 8000 meters
>from that alt you notice that "England" is just a small island that doesn't extend beyond the map limit

puma is also weakly armored and not that mobile

l2drive scrub

>just bought and crewed the german mig15
>flew it 5 times and dont want to play anymore
Now what?

club props in custom battles and watch them freak the fuck out

my.mixtape.moe/xlnwbd.webm
why do they do this?

What did they mean by this?

>head-on
>taking great amount of damage

being this bad in handheld plane...

I flew into 5 guys, got 3 kills and landed just fin- oh wait, you were talking about the spits :^)

what the fuck are those headons? you're supposed to fire a burst then roll out of the way especially in a plane that rolls well like a J7, not commit to it and get destroyed. also
>doing headons

Wait the reward puma is out already?

>fire a burst then roll out of the way
aka "the virgin head on"

>Panther A is 6.0
>T-V, a Panther A but with a green turret and no APCR, is 5.7
))))))))))

>be retarded spitnigger
>go head-on to a plane with nose mounted cannons
>go cry on the forums

since 5 hours ago

>I want to be bad

>Gaijin thinks the lack of APCR is a big enough reason to decrease the BR by 0.3
Holy shit these slavs are fucking retarded.

They're mad at superfortress

Puma 75mm doesn't exist faggots

>3 kills no death after flying into 5 planes with better maneuverability, a few of them also with altitude advantage
>"wow ur doin it rong"
alright ;_;

>Quoting the wrong post

what the fuck are those headons? you're supposed to hold the trigger and if they're not dead yet you ram them especially in a plane that has katana wings like a J7, not doing a half-assed virgin spray that doesn't put yourself right in front of their guns. also
>not doing headons more

non-APCR master race

I did that for a bit now some honorfag cl13 keeps following me to different games ruining my fun

change teams and teamkill him :')

custom game jetfags are sad tier

cute!

>cockpit is open in 3rd person view
>switch to 1st person view
>cockpit is closed
Bravo Gaijin

>flying the premium griffon with the malcolm hood
good taste

>Amerifat
>Cute
Nein.

0.6 in case of M4A2, which also has worse armor than M4.

>someone takes a T-34 1942 into an 8.3 match
>gets 4 kills
>including an M103 and Chieftain who were facing him directly
allied teammates are going to be the death of me
and we still won that match because I got swarmed by shilkas that couldn't penetrate me

they should have just given us the Razorback P-47

this plane looks fucking lame...

I want to club people but I don't wanna be a Spitnigger

>wanting something that should be in the main tree to be an event exclusive
don't fucking encourage them, the 75mm Puma is bad enough

Razorback P-47s in place of the current P-47Ds when?
P-47Ds given 2600hp then placed at a BR between the P-47N that's also uptiered when?

It looks nice but putting it at 3.0 seems a bit harsh compared to the Spit IIb, 109 E-4 and Ki-61

fly any low tier plane or the A7M2 or the Ki-84 ko or the F-84G or the G.56 or the P-51D-30 or the P-47N or the 109 F-4

allied players need to be gassed and anyone who owns a tier 4 german premium needs to be culled

whats so bad about the jagdpanther

it's a tier 4 premium
all tier 4 premiums are cancer but german ones are the most broken and cancerous
everyone who owns the tiger II SLA or Ru 251 needs to be fucking banned, prove me wrong

>try to place on of the rifle decorations on a tank
>no red spots, nothing clipping, looks fine
>"you can't place there tovarisch)))"
WW3 fucking when

>Shoot Jumbo in the MG port from while almost hugging him
>non-penetration
>non-penetration
>ricochet
git gud)))))))))))))

just flank))))

>all tier 4 premiums are cancer but german ones are the most broken and cancerous

we all know the puma 75mm is shit

>he can't place a rifle

>IS-4M
>premium

Puma 75mm doesn't exist faggot

Feels good rekting Shermans and Jumbos at ranges they can't even touch me

>tiger II SLA
Why? Isn't it regular tiger II, just with engine that burns slower?

Tiger II is overpowered

t. eeb

>run into Jumbo at near pointblank range
>I fire at his MG, bounce
>he fires APHE at me, fails to pen
>knowing I have longer reload, I angle myself and reverse hoping he will fire second he's done with reloading, and doesn't carry solid shot AP
>he does exactly this, bounces
>APHE through MG port for him
KV-1E > Jumbo

napalm when

>HEAT is still a kinetic penetrator

New to this game, is it always gonna be this easy?

This is my first game and I'm pretty crossfaded right now so idk lol

I managed to get my panzerfaust on that spot

Just move it ever-so slightly to the left, so not to touch that black cylinder thing

so which one is better

fuck you

Top one

F-4, the trop is worse in every way

why's that?

no.
First several matches it's few players just as green as you are, and fake accounts (bots) filling remaining player slots. It's easy to guess, because WT's AI is prone to glitching.
After some battles like that, you'll end up playing aganist actual players, but still fairly green (IIRC ones without T2 aircrafts). It's easy to confirm by little smurfing, that you're only up aganist people with little experience. Also you're start getting new maps and mission types
After you reach T2 you'll be thrown in pool with everyone else. So don't get upset when you start getting your ass handed over to you, it's simply because now you're up aganist players with actual game experience.

marginally lighter and lower drag, because no heavy duty air filter to protect engine from desert sand.

I've only played a handful of games this evening. Only one wasn't a total defeat without my team ever getting anywhere near a cap point.

It's not making the tasks easy to complete.

they have the same flight model

you don't have to win games to get marks

They do not. The F-4/trop is noticeably worse at everything.

This isn't true. I've done 5 referral accounts for GE and 1.3-2.3 battles are chock full of experienced players (lvl 50+)

REEEEEEEE

Also what am I in for? Can I finally get my revenge and facefuck wallet warriors in their bias 6s?

>playing germans
>inb4 "muh slav(e)" screeching

kys

It makes life a whole lot easier. Other than the 'kills' task, all the others depend on the teams. If you're not facing lemmings, 11 kills can be near impossible... I sometimes don't see that many players in a match.

>processing operation

holy fucking shit, why is everything other than a 1000kg bomb fucking useless?
i'm never going to attempt dive bombing again

I've gotten the 11 kills (so 6 tanks in RB, or 3 planes) for each mark

just try no fuse delay
