First for animefags genocide not soon enough

Reminder to join [SMUG] today!

Russian ERA blocks for T-55A and T-62 when?

>10 kills and win
>only 5,304 RP
Why?

Because Gaijin knows tank niggers have low IQ so they can jew them more.

Half-Pak when?

Did solid shot get a buff?
Is it worth playing my Strv21 again? I got pretty sour at needling every system to death in an enemy tank only for it to repair and blyat))))))) my entire crew with a glancing blow to the hatch.

Tanks is fucking pain.

Yes, AP has been buffed
Be warned that APCR and APDS are still needles though

>waked up in the middle of the night because stomach hurted like a motherfucker

Wondering what's that mean

This doesnt add up

>oh look, I got good gains. Let's complain about them on /wtg/
Fuck you. T4 planes earn 1.5k for 10 kills

>1.5k for 10 kills
wow you are a lying cunt

>complaining about the ATGM carrier at 6.7
How bad can you even be?

Are Object 120 players subhuman?

uptier))))))))

yes

>Are [Soviet] players subhuman?
Yes.

>T34 solid shot barely simpsons a ho-ri prototype gun and doesn't damage crew from the front
solid shit sure did get a buff

Oh, look. It's fucking nothing when you're researching the Me 262.

nice shoop

>photoshopping another retard's name in place of yours
lmao

>arcade
fuck off and take your tu-2 with you battlefieldaces

How'd you even figure?

Is all in resolution and aspect ratio komrad)))))

>shoot his ammo
what did he mean by this?

If you turn the turret of the AMX-13 around it actually looks like a real tank.

Pretty sure rice terraces isn't a RB map. Also your rp gain is pitiful despite killing 10 planes. With 1 kill and winning, you would earn 2k rp in RB

Kids playing this game don't think with logic, they think with emotion, so they chimp out when things don't go their way.

sounds a lot like /wtg/

quality memes in the tempest p

>planeshitter in tank RB
just kys dude

I don't think many people here deny what they are.

"no"

>t. IS-6nigger

Go cry to gaijin about that

fake, bombs don't explode that quickly, you have about 5s to move away before they explode

Thanks.

>My FW 190 behaves as if the pilot has worse parkinsons then Michael J Fox now.

Listen here, I know the fuckers were seal clubby, but for fucks sake this is goddamned ridiculous.

Does it get better? I was only up to my BF 109 F-4 Trop and the FW A-4

T32 is useless

the G-6 and K-4 are both fantastic, and the G-14 and G-10 are okay but there's no reason flying them when the K-4 turns as well and performs much better. the 190 A-5/U2 is decent. doras and ta 152s are good but have a very specific playstyle.

>tampering with delays
Shitter detected

I can Boom and Zoom and aim with the best

But for the fucking life of me trying to get my sights on target let alone my target lead ahead of my target is goddamned impossible.

You cant' fuck around with a "optimal" sub 450kp/h dive because it seems like everything else will just chase you down and fuck you. And any faster your controls go full fucking jank, +500Kp/h and you might as well prep for lawn dart mode.


Christ.

It does not get better, even the D-13 is really hard to get guns on target with.

then fly 109s, they (surprisingly enough) have much less compression at high speeds than 190s and are really easy to aim if you don't know how to roll.

>kamikaze shitter
It's not my fault you can't aim your bomb for shit

>7.0 lineup
>constantly up tiered to 7.7
>Add M47 to lineup to bring me up to 7.3, figure it will just keep dropping me with 7.7
>enemy team are T-62s

Why haven't we nuked moscow yet?

I can't believe just how overpowered allied CAS is. This is fucking insane, why does gaijin allow this? Allies truly are handheld.

>be bad
>complain
ok

ok

Why does every single fucking 5.3 air RB game have some shitter in a B-17 or a spitfire flying to space to delay the game intentionally.

I have a good feeling why I keep getting killed by artillery more often recently and it may have to do with the christmas lights.

You got nearly point blank blapped (for an explosive) that weights over 400kg and has 92mm of penetration on it's shrapnel let alone a direct hit.

You got your shit pushed in. Go get some butt salve and rejoin the battle conveyor.

English saying: "It's like shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted."

Slavic saying: "Like shutting the stable door after the horse has been stolen."

Hmn.... makes you wonder...

if you hadn't noticed, it was only the tracks that got destroyed

Pretty sure I saw a round go through your top armor too.

Even still you were less then 6m away from two of the fuckers going off nearby you.

They're essentially rocket propelled 500KG/half ton/1000lb Bombs

I launched those rockets(((

>rocket propelled 500kg bombs
>rocket has 63.5kg of TNT
More like 100kg bombs.

I've found that the best way to handle T-44's and T-44-100's is to take a plane with .50's (preferably in the nose but wings works too), load ground targets, and come almost straight down ontop of the niggers will blasting the turret roof
Usually kills them in the first pass, almost guaranteed kill on the second
Bombs and rockets are just far too inconsistent to use them on vehicles that you would probably be better off strafing to death anyways
AN/M2 and AN/M3 armor penetration fixed FUCKING WHEN?

>AN/M2 and AN/M3 armor penetration fixed FUCKING WHEN?
Never because the collective chimp out between german players and slav(e) players would be astronomical

user it's a bomb, a 500lb bomb historically with a rocket motor strapped to it.

Most of the mass comes from the actual housing. It's warhead is 150lbs roughly.

What am I in for?

high velocity gratuitous penetration.

The Leopard 1, but with slightly better armor, stabilizers so you can actually put your mobility to work, and hopefully a slot filled with a reserve tank so you can avoid getting assraped by MBT-70's and T-64's while you're going through that FUN AND ENGAGING stock grind

How much penetration did they have irl? Or is the statcard penetration true but it's just bugged?

its as bad as the leo1, just 0.5 tier higher aka you fight 99 out of 100 games tier9

youre a free kill for all t64, have fun trying to get that repaircost in

>its as bad as the leo1
>Leopard 1
>Bad

How can a single individual be this much of a shitter?

The explosive filler is around 65kg, slightly more than a 100kg bomb would have. So in regards to near missed, it acts like a 100kg bomb would. The Tiny Tim was meant to be used against ships, by penetrating the deck armor and exploding inside. That's why it has much more steel than explosive. Unfortunately, when it impacts the ground next to a tank, all that steel is quite worthless

>try to type location of enemy
>kill cam deletes it before I can send
>information is now completely redundant by the time I respawn

)))))))))))

I don't know how much they could punch through IRL, but there's definitely something fucked going on with what's on their statcard, because even though it says they can get through roughly 33mm of armor, they can't even punch through the roof of a niggeRu251
Which is odd, because the Hispano MkV's are actually on par with .50's in terms of ground belt penetration, but they turn niggeRu's into mulch and I've even managed to get through the roofs of certain Panther variants

Not him but with they definitely aren't as good as before with the hesh nerf and newer tanks added.

idk... because APDS doesnt do shit?

Why is the Ru 251 only slightly better than it?

>I can research crew replenishment
>my tank only has two crewmembers
)

It's useful in arcade.

Well.... if you take a hit in a cap zone maybe....

Had I known how much of an advantage they have in most BRs I would have started playing R*ssians from the start.

Their reserve tanks have 45mm guns... that's about the only reason you really need.

The french have an SPG with a 25mm :/

>blast arado nigger out of the sky
>teammate hits him just as I chop his wing off
>enemy kill assist!
Fuck off.

Coelian is absolutely disgusting.

What an OP piece of shit.

Why does the matchmaker hate me and always put me in the team that never goes for the objective?

have you tried git gud

>playing the objective
kys

one constant.

ok have kugelblitz at 6.7 again))))

>team based game
>it's your fault xd
not him but nice soy attitude

F-100 and Mi-g-19 when?

>it's not the braindead teams, it's the fault of the player who's complaining!
+5 GE!

>I wonder how I could get to the Leopard I the fastest
>the fucking Panther line one after another
jesus fuck how do you nazis deal with that suffering?
