1st for anime

1st for new patch when

2nd for biggubossu

Dark Shark when?

You guys weren't fucking kidding. They actually do this to their players.

ITS ALWAYS A FUCKING CALIOPE

calliope everytime

The biggest joke is how you have to pay for the privilege of driving a shitty tank for an hour.

after the XP-81
my last test drive was for the Panzerwerfer 42
I ended up getting more plane kills with the top mounted MG than tank kills with it's rockets...

I'm not commie or stupid marxist but shit like these triggers me. An old war horse fought for the ideals of his people gets treated like this by new commie liberals. Fucking asholes has no respect for history (ofc given they're marxist). But still a piece of history should never be treated like this. R.I.P IS-2

I think it's just been painted over in tan to serve as a monument, but I'm partially colorblind.

I don't think they'll add mixed propulsion. I'd like the XF8B or XP-72, though.

when?

>symbol of foreign invaders that occupied your land for 45 years and extra invaded you in 1968 when you tried to do something on your own
>hurr durr respect it

fuck off

t. Pepik

>defacing monuments or historical treasures because muh feefees

When?

>defacing monuments put up by foreign invaders in your land

What else would you do with them, clean them you cuck?

189175041
>a bunch of scrap metal is a monument/historical treasure
>literally tens of thousands made
>hundred or more still in working order

That is one sexy fucking plane I've never seen before but now really want to fly in WT

>cuck
I'll reiterate
>>defacing monuments or historical treasures because muh feefees
You realize there are vehicles of foreign army vehicles in other countries, yes?
(((189175248)))
I agree comrade))), destroy those museum pieces, many more were made xaxaxaxa)))

meanwhile in germany

Damn it looks good

That specific IS-2 was not a museum piece but a monument put up by the soviet army to remind us Czechs that they own our asses. It was only logical that it would be defaced as soon as we stopped licking their boots. read up about it Ivan.

>client states pretending they are real countries

t. barely sentient vodka chimp

My country has never been invaded by other losers

----6086
nobody, no matter how desperate, wants to migrate TO Russia

it would be nice if it lasted 3 hours or full day, and pool had more than 5 vehicles in it. Curretnly it's only 3 shit rocket tanks, no one will buy anyway, I-153P and Jap Fw 190

I'm not a slavchimp

Patch tomorrow, or would they announce the maintenance first?

because there's nothing of worth to take by force

Germans kinda wanted to in 1941 ;^)

They didn't want to migrate to Russia, they wanted Russia to migrate elsewhere.

what country faggot?

>German politician says than soon Germans will be minority in their own country
>people cheered
>"I know it's Germany, but still sounds like bullshit"
>check it
>it's real

>3 500lb can sink a destroyer
>2 can't
>bombing a destroyer is hard as fuck with no markers
>4 500lb is pointless for 1 destroyer and harder

Might as well just stick to torpedo, same outcome, less difficult, less time spent over enemy lines

>germany
>german
*laughs in swiss*

learn to skip bomb

It just looks weird desu, theres no way they actually flew like that, where the fuck is the TBF Avenger in this game

Neat, I didn't know you could do skip bombing

>skip bomb

You mean having the bomb on a timer and dropping it so it skips a few times in water and hits the destroyer?

Well fuck that confirms it, I'll give it a go in testing. Also that Skyriader skin is fucking sweet

It's pink. Sorry user, you're colorblind.
Can't show respect for human history because >Muh feelengs

Stop your niggering. By that stupid logic ruskies should paint all the german tanks pink at kubinka tank museum. History like it or not is a treasure to humanity and disrespecting it is a crime.

P-39N-0 is probably my favorite handholding undertiered ameribabby plen.

whasyours?

I can't beat you at war. But I sure can deface your shitty WW2 tank. Damn czechs are pathetic. No wonder 80% of the porn stars comes out of that shithole.

READ

THE

FUCKING

THREAD


en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monument_to_Soviet_Tank_Crews

It's not just a simple IS-2 in a tank museum, it's a monument that was a symbol for the commies, a symbol that had to be destroyed.

same

German occupants didn't set up the museum as a "haha get fukt" meme. The russkies did with this tank. I still don't get why you're so obstinate.

meant to respond to

>tfw your country will never invade another country and make them butthurt forever

Bonus points if you manage to get 3 skips

All those triggered czechsnians in this thread

>all those warships close together
hnngg
what map or user mission is this?

>slavs

what is this pic, inside of a plane?

>Thanks to its hydraulic wings the TBF could be packed or unpacked in less than a minute

Thats an actual loading screen message in this game.

Only problem is, where the fuck is the TBF Avenger?

>if you oppose a breed of savage drunkards that routinely subvert western civilization you must be lolbutthurt
The nazis were unironically correct.

Before the B-25 in the bomber line. Where else would it be?

It's this one live.warthunder.com/post/617673/en/
You can use tanks and planes with different bomb loads and test them against a few AI battleships and carriers, some bombers and tanks and there are all CBT ships on the map.
>mfw me-262 with 48x rockets against destroyers

>lebensraum thinks he's a real country

Should be in the US bomber line.

>he isnt circumsized

I see it now, damn I forgot all about it, still didn't research improved torpedos

Yeah, basically a renovated PBY, made into a flying houseboat.

This is one of the only planes that I was given a talisman for. Its a pretty fun little plane actually.

Oh fuck yes this is just what I wanted. Thanks user

Yeah I'm just wondering why theres no later variants, a Rank III, besides the BTD-Destroyer which replaced it, which Gaijin made a fucking premium.

I like these torpedo planes but I hate how the torpedo sticks out of the Helldiver like that

I just noticed that I was using the old version in that webm, in the new version there are enemy ai destroyers all over the place that will immediately open fire with everything they have

>Naval assets required.

ah fuck, guess I'll have to wait to play it till boats open beta

+650mph at sea level nuclear strikes when?

Gotta love those dual 5" mounts

GEARING CLASS WHEN

nuclear weapons fucking when

>squadron of 3 B-29s with Fat Man bombs join the game
That would really suck.

How much do you goys think the Taran is going to be?

Davey Crockets, atomic annie, nuclear missiles, nuclear tipped torpedoes etc

50 at least, i hope they wont go full kike mode and demand 60+

>big meaty strategic bomber goes down to the deck
>attracts enemy mongoloids
>drops nuke with 5 second delay
>sacrifices self for killing half the enemy team

HAHAHAHAHAHA EPIC MAYMAY XD

So if you set delay to bombs do they still kill ships or they sink through them because potato programming?

They explode after the delay but they will fly through some of the cbt ships because small family company)))

>gun gets destroyed
>no parts
>leave map and suicide to deny the kill
>tell the enemy team
>"WAAAAAAAAAAAH WAAAAAAAAAAAAAH"

these are the moments i live for :^)

t. biggubossu

What the hell is up with the visual damage model?

Lately I have had the following happen multiple times:
>shoot someone from dead 6
>on my screen his elevator falls off
>he continues to manouver perfectly fine despite having no elevator on my screen

Sometimes I don't even get hit indicator when visually I see parts falling off from the enemy plane. 50 ping 0% PL

Jesus christ getting doxed fucking sucks

you know what else sucks? (you)

I mean you're not wrong, I hope my humiliation was worth all the (you)'s

>races for the cap
>call in arty
>he gets TK'd before he caps
oops!

OK, so I've only been playing for a couple of days and when I got the Sturmpanzer, I thought
>hmm, no armour, no turret, big ass gun, definitely a long range vehicle, must set up on hill somewhere
Then after a series of losses, I thought, fuck it, why not just push into the town/cap and set myself up for ambushing them at close/point blank range, I mean nothing else is working...

And virtually every time I've done this, I've not only won, but racked up huge amounts of kills, well, for me anyway.
This... doesn't seem right. Is that really how you're supposed to play?

They will sink through the standard AI ships I've noticed.

You need to skip bomb and impact that way or impact normal from dive bombing, no time delay

so whats the best way to research a vehicle, get kills, get caps, win games?

RB
premium time
premium vehicle
1-2 kills and than die asap, preferably by enemy hand not to get crew locked
load up the next game

damn, i can do all those but premium vehicle

You asked for "the best" way, you can still do it without the premium vehicle. A talisman is a cheap alternative, but a regular one is ok too, it will just take longer.

Nice

NICE!

>American teams in air RB
Why are they so bad? I thought this was just a phenomena on the US servers but even in the euro and slav ones the American teams are absolutely awful

Doesn't the talisman just buff xp income?

Because this is the average burger player.

Nevermind.

That's what you want for researching vehicles my man; you get less Silver Lions than in a premium vehicle but a talismaned one is just as good as a premium in researching shit.
