First for gsssing slav(e)s

second for UPDATE WHEN???

Third for give me some modern jets you fucking slavic jews

Does Gaijin actually consider daily tasts like "kill 6 enemy fighters" to be on the same level of difficulty/time consumption as tasks like "win 6 matches" or are higher difficulty special/daily tasks solely designed to make you re-roll them using Lions?

Xth for handheld teeb and gemran abhumans

Reminder that Russia is a beautiful country filled with beautiful people!

xth for 6.0 France GF is badass as fuck
I honestly believe they're made to make us reroll.

The engine can't handle speeds over mach 1.05 properly, I think, so what's more likely is you're going to get attack choppers at the end of every ground attack tree, and maybe slow ground attack aircraft like the A-10 Warthog.

There are plenty of modern attack aircraft that are not supersonic and much more modern.

if they do this genuinely it's time to uninstall

Tell two that aren't A-10 and Harrier.

They'd be too powerful, no one in a tank wants to get danced by a homing missile designed to destroy bunkers from 5km away. People ree'd and screeched about RP-3 rockets, how do you think they will react to modern anti tank air support?

>people have been howling for supersonic aircraft for 5 years
>don't add them
Gaijin nuked when?

>slowly add more and more modern tanks
>don't consider that people might want modern planes to accompany them until long after its time to add them
Its like they don't really know what they're doing.

>ERA and modern tanks added to the game in full a year later
>Choppers still not in the game

Give it time, it'll be choppers.

That would probably require completely reworking the engine. The poor thing can barely handle tanks and boats as is.

They know, they just don't care. The airforce aspect of the game is entirely secondary to tanks, since tanks are much easier to "control" from a gameplay perspective and people spend more money on them as a result.

Su-25 and A-6 Intruder

Air RB hasn't changed much, has it?

what the fuck is wrong with the M332 APCR. it supposedly has 270 mm of penetration at 100 meters yet it does jack shit

Attached: Andrew_Johnson.jpg (700x746, 75K)

APCR does a shit ton better vs slopes when I tested on the dev server. Just wait until that drops.

im trying to get some better ammunition on the M48 before the patch drops but the fucking memepyramids and nazibunkers dont give a fuck about those rounds.

Su-25
A-4 Skyhawk
A-6 Intruder
Alpha Jet
Su-7
L-59
L159
AMX International
A-29 Super Tucano

Well, at the very least I noticed that the 90mm APCR goes through the UFP of a panther like a hot knife through butter.

It's been able to do that for a few updates though. Nobody has known since nobody uses APCR.

I have been watching some gameplay of this, and there's a scene in a tank mission where a Tiger 2 bursts through a wall and the player has a clear shot on its side for a few seconds. Even if you shoot it in the side here, the shell somehow does no damage and the player is forced to retreat. Seems weird. Wouldn't any variant of the Sherman from 1944/45 be able to penetrate a Tiger 2 from the side at point blank? Shit, wouldn't ANY Sherman be able to pen a Tiger 2 at point blank from the side? Also, the crew seems to call Panzer IVs "Panthers" at one point, and the Sherman can't pen them from the front at point blank either.

what about the slav gaymobiles? because i cant be off by a milimeter in order to fuck them up but they can just aim wherever the fuck and instagib me

Didn't really test that man. Sorry. I do know that APCR was pretty improved over all.

The Su-7 is a supersonic fighter

you are talking about fucking call of duty. they couldnt even get their models right

Nigger.... COD is full of shit

So, will the G.91 pre-series finally get his deserved 7.7 BR with the next patch?

>wouldn't ANY Sherman be able to pen a Tiger 2 at point blank from the side
Should be able to with solid AP
>the crew seems to call Panzer IVs "Panthers" at one point
Allied crews also called Panthers "Tigers". So that's not hard to understand.
>and the Sherman can't pen them from the front at point blank either
"Most immersive Call of Duty yet"

I know it's kind of just a stupid bideo game but it's weird they'd even make the player fight Pz IV opponents instead of making them actually Panthers for the sake of the mission.

Su-7B fits the role and can only reach Mach 1 at high altitude, like the planes we already have in game.

I wonder fucking why

People were massive retards when it came to identifying shit in WW2. Every Jap plane became a Zero except for the Ki-61 which they though was a C.202 so it became the Tony.

See, this is why I make memes like say two modern subsonic aircraft that aren't A-10 and Harrier
I love you guys.
>except for the Ki-61 which they though was a C.202 so it became the Tony.
America, everyone.

But user, every Jap plane IS a Zero! A ZERO out of TEN that is.

FIX THE KI-61 BR YOU SLAVNIGGERS

no
))))))))

If you actually play the mission, it's a fucking pukefest. The optic view has low fov and you have to constantly move around and look around to flank 2 tanks at the same time. Took me 5~6 tries and I almost threw up when I was done
Also COD being COD, so sherman somehow cant pen the front of a panzer IV

its safe to assume the meme hollow M48 and M60 gunshields are never going to be addressed by these slavic subhumans?

Attached: 1399207157598.jpg (500x434, 95K)

they're literally going to be fixed tomorrow

the m48 is getting a huge buff to its mantlet and surrounding armor this patch

Delayed)))

one thing I remember about CoD 2 was in 2 final misions you faced Tigers, and were supposed to run up to them blew them up with sticky bombs. But if you had rockets for Panzershrecks, you could simply oneshot them from side.
In final mission you could also run ahead of them and man one of abondoned Flak 88's to kill them right through frontal plate

I fucking hate these animals.

At least we now know what a 100% Challenger 1's stats will be.

Attached: nigger jew.png (703x722, 229K)

see

i only saw something about the area surrounding the mantlet not the mantlet itself

wait so that's gonna be chally's actual stats?

That's pretty normal you retard. They fixed it for the actual patch but aren't going to bother patching the fuck test server to appease some sperging teebchimp.

at least there arent any better options for tank games. for now.

>الدبابات

they put the 82mm plate back behind the 152 mm mantlet

did they hint at what the remaining new vehicles of which none will be the type 74G))))))))))))))))))))) will be since the reveal

SBD-5

Does anyone remember did they add vehicles that werent on the dev server on release? Or what we saw on dev server all were getting?

The entire french SPAAG line wasn’t on the dev, except for the bofors-truck.

Seems like normal workflow.
Your proof was sended to game designer, monkey from tech support was commanded to give you some answer. Since slavs capable of giving neutral answers ("thank you for information, our devs gonna check it"), it probably was some outstaffed pajeet.
Pretty retarded to think that someone from core team writing this replies.

Remove KV-1

say no more

Attached: m10.jpg (700x459, 71K)

where is the M1 in the tree?
is it "tied" to something else?

The SBD-5 would be pretty good if it was at the same BR as the SBD-3. It would literally be a Ki-43 with huge bombs and a tail gunner.
Too bad it's probably never going to happen and I was just speculating what might come.

why have i never gotten this, i call people Spaghettinigger, Japnigger, slavnigger, Germanic Turks, Anglobllodsuckers and Amerimutts all the time

that's a shame, but at the same time I'm probably better off without it

but you don't openly insult russians or gayjin
i get 30 days bans all the time

This has been my second 15 day chatban in two months. Apparently 10 people have complained about me.

Well perhaps team mates shouldn't be idiots, and peoples shouldn't use Russian tanks

Do what I did, open the general chat and call the moderator filthy retarded drunken monkeys.
Got a 31 year chatban.

were the claims of the "no grass in sights" setting being gone in 1.77 true?

>entire line of shermans are trash until Pershing
just like in the real ww2

i sure do love when naziboos cry about muh post war but then they hop into their AA and rape everything and annoy everybody

t. has never played with germans or russians

Its all the Brazilians and Turks using Sherman's incorrectly like using the 75mm Jumbo as a sniper and M18s as front line tanks

G.91s are fun to fly

>have to get the MBT before I can get the Abrams
That's fine. I'd rather get the M60A1s anyway.

just remember, new tanks are 9.0, so once they come out 8.0 and above will likely become about as fun and 8.0 air
