Ho229 BTFO!

What's the first bong tank with a reverse gear?

cheiftain

Are top tier nazi teams still retarded going balls to the wall with tanks made of paper? Are they still eaten alive by allied CASserole? Kpz70 or MBT70?

>Are top tier nazi teams still retarded
yes, dont play 8.0 nazis or japs

>Are they still eaten alive by allied CASserole?
yes if they live long enuf to even see airplanes, usually they die off in 2 minutes to slavbunkers or chieftains

>Kpz70 or MBT70?
mbt simply because then you get to play with bongs/slavs

i wouldnt hold my breath on the tier 6 tho, slavs have quite formidable lineup for that, it1/t55/t62/t64 and since rockets are getting nerfed its even stronger

I heard that the rocket nerf would affect ATGMs like the IT-1 as well.

i have only seen gaijin talk about the air to surface rockets and how the types of rockets are getting damage model changes

hvars will work like huge heat rounds and russian armor piercing rockets will work like APHE

>ATGM nerf
that's too good of an idea for Gaijin to actually do it.

Machine guns for StuG/StuHs when?

The game is moving towards the cold war, yet battles will still be Germany vs the world in tier 6. What the fuck?

There are different team configurations in RB though. There needs to be a separate queue for Era 5 vehicles and up, with NATO vs USSR, and a map selection suitable for the setting(Sinai, Fulda etc).

Here's a quick quiz for aircraft experts only:
What class of aircraft has one engine, several fixed-forward cannon, no defensive armament, one crewman, is very fast, highly maneuverable, and has provisions to carry one bomb externally?
Is it a fighter?
No.
Is it an interceptor?
No.
Is it real?
No.
Is it a bomber?
Obviously, why else would it get a bomber spawn?

An entire US jeep tree would be fucking tight

Are you talking about the F-8 fockewulf? Because that gets an attacker spawn

If you fly bombers please just fucking hang yourself right now.

>highly maneuverable
i don't think that's it

>whining about the BTD
literally just energy fight

Finally got the a1a1, what should I go for next?

fug, should have specified jet engine so you guys couldn't ruin my meme.

Can't think of anything that fits the description.

Those are both real aircraft. Nice try.

it's the jap thing with 4 particle cannons.

Has a bomb bay laddo.

that has two engines

>grinding for the Leopard with my Pakwagen/Pz IV G combo
That sounds like true suffering. The rp gain must be awful.

>thinking of grinding Nips for a bit to play glorious JSDF vehicles
>realize MM will put my American produced and supplied tanks into battle against Americans in support of Germany somewhere in North Africa or Central Russia
>Japan only maps and battle never ever
Sodoku is the only option now.

hitler shoulda won desu

how do I g91?

wait for the g91Y

wait for one with real guns

Load ground ordinances and bomb Angolan communists.

aight time to sleep
wake me up when the mi-2 gets added with ATGMs

MI-2 CUTE!!!

A CUTE!!!!!!!

So if the L7 gun wasn't issued until 1959, does that mean the US and UK would have faced the USSR with mostly 90mm and 20 pounder guns?

Jesus Christ, how horrifying.

>tier V
>shoot someone in the engine
>they die because no fpe unlocked

A gunship should not be allowed to be this cute

On the other side there were only shitty T-55s and even shittier T-62s though so it wouldn't have been much of a problem

Most the stuff they'd face isn't exactly 90mm proof though. Like the T-54 or IS-3 might be a bit of an issue but you got to remember that there'd also be loads of WW2 vintages like T-34/85s, IS-2s, SU-100s and such around.
But yeah thing would've been a bit hard.

>T-62
>pre-1959

>T-62
>shittier than the T-55
100mm didn't get really good rounds like those APFSDS rounds until the 80s

And most NATO forces were equipped with the M47 Patton back then. A tank with an even worse service record than the T-55.

don't forget 120s

T-62 was flawed with a fuckload of problems, in the end they produced them alongside T-55s because of that and used them as a stop-gap solution until T-72s and T-64s were out

Yeah i fucked up and read '69 instead of '59. I might need some sleep.

>faced the USSR with mostly 90mm and 20 pounder guns
That is if you're lucky. If you're not lucky you'd end up as that guy who has to face a T-55 in a Sherman or Chaffee.

...

sleep snug, smug

>weeb smugs
everyone knows those are the lowest quality smugs

Bronald Brumpf

>T-64 gets worse penetrating rounds than a fucking T-62
for what purpose

Is the mbt 70 not going to get the 20mm and have a slower reload?
Glad I grinded out my German top tier.

T-55 had most of the same issues as T-62 but they are not talked as much because for the time being the issues were acceptable but once T-62 came out with the same problems Soviet allies weren't too happy about it. USSR tried to sell T-62 to it's allies by refusing to sell modern ammo for the T-54/55 and offering to sell T-62 instead.

>more than half of my team went off to chase some bomber down 4 km away from point A (our capped point) leaving me and another guy fending off 5 planes on our own

Will any new plane be able to compete in squadron with the spit 24?

I can't seem to hit anyone with hispano mk V in head ons. Where should I aim?

SMALL

Centurions

Conqueror had the 120mm

>autistically only play RB so I'm not considered a casual
>try arcade on a whim
>it's infinitely more fun

Really makes you think

U wot m8?

Tank arcade is literal autism that makes WoT look like a simulator.

Plane arcade can be fun especially if you got tired of climb to win crap.

>it-1 goes thorugh world
nothing new really

F-8 Crusader and F-5 Freedom Fighter when?

>Tank arcade is literal autism that makes WoT look like a simulator.
Arcade is shit, but you can't seriousl believe that.

Yes I can. With all the retards sperging with mg's and idiotic kamikaze plane runs. Not to mention retardedly horrible maps.

I miss when tanks RB was exactly like plane RB. One tank per match and that's it.

Why couldn't the mixed mode just be separate?

>rakjpz

got what you deserve faggot

but an IT-1 deserves to get a kill and survive?
Weird, self-contradictory logic.

pls respond

REEEEEE I WANT MY MANCHUKUO SKIN GAIJIN

Possibly down to minor diferences between what your client was showing and what your oponents was.... I get this quite a lot when my client shows my gun firing, only for me to die to the enemy I was shooting because the server had me dead before I got the shot off.

IT-1s are even more cancerous and their players deserve the rope even more than IS-6 players, but smug rakjpz players deserve getting memed on as well
