How is this a 'bug' when you've literally never been able to reload those smokes?

Attached: nigelsemidisgust.png (421x416, 312K)

It's a generic term they use all the time.

Maybe it is a bug because it was unintended fucking behavior?

wait so I'll download faster is I switch the launcher language to russian?

>ever since they changed to single launch smokes half a year ago it has been a 'bug' that they cant be reloaded
Bravo devs.

My game is completely updated. I will tell you guys if anything not stated before is in here.

All of the new top MBT are 390k RP and 1,010,000 SL.

>not a special edition for the update
Dropped the ball, faggot.

Does the undeadable require the MBT-70?
cry more, nigger

Shit meant, 450 Kb/s. It always used to anyway, it has now levelled out at 500-600 Kb/s but I wouldn't switch if you're already into it because it just sets you back.

The L7 APDS is actually unironically good now. Who would've thought. Oh but they took our ability to report other players.

They even went out of their way to remove 30 horsepower from the fucking Valentine Mk1, the cunts.
Don't worry though, they added 2km/h to the Crusader AAs!!

They literally buffed the fucking L7 stupendously. Go suck a dick you teaboo retard.
The Abrams is indeed connected and after the MBT-70

does changin language method of getting better speed no longer work?

I'm pretty sure despite this launcher update being 100KB/s, it's also fucking with my internet because browsing the internet is hindered and my steam keeps going down

The M1 is F U N

...

>buffed the l7 stupendously
How about some evidence?
All I see is some trajectory changes, nothing to do with penetration & damage.

I literally blue screened while updating the launcher, Jesus christ what the fuck did these chimps do

Go play the game retard. This was tested in the Dev Server and now live. It pens the T-54's like a hot knife through butter even at angles.

Switching to Russian has slowed it down massively for me.

What are you guys watching/doing to pass the time of this upload?

that should be it. Not sure about the bomber FM changes or the Do 335s as I don't really fly them

I'll finish tuning my piano the finish the last chapter of American Pastoral

Anyone else experience a graphic driver crash? Was in a custom meme and everyone in the game got booted to lobby with a graphic crash.

It's almost as if they limit your DL speed according to your IP location so Slav niggers get a head start on the grind.

tfw war thunder is only enjoyble just after updates where's only 5v5/6v6 teams

Hurricanes are fun though.

I haven't played for years and only played arcade when I did. I remember people telling to not play arcade. Why is RB better than arcade and should I setup my flightstick for it?

Great, I was enjoying shitting on people in my P-38 yesterday in EC for the first time in years now they've gutted it.

It only happens when I switch to Germany?

nice

is the launcher supposed to update itself? mine still says 1.75

Arcade is UFOs, RB is closer to realistic air combat.

current air rb is literally old ab now

Grab that new I-TOW. Bagel is actually fantastic now.

Don't know if I'm late to the party, but have you guys seen the leaked Swedish info about the Leo 2, export Abrams A2 and Leclerc tests? Some pretty neat info there, especially about armor.

I was expressing my amazement at all the good goyim

HURRICANE SQUADS WHERE?

bullets passing by has a different "whizz" but no sonic cracks still.

I killed two T64s frontally through the turret with a Leo in one round and that has never happened before.

your hdd is capping

far from it

Attached: capture.png (990x417, 42K)

>Disco

It's dead, baby.

AB still has its own set of unique maps and you can jump straight into some high octane action.
RB has higher skill ceiling but also is stuck with climb meta. Planes have more gravity+weight and you have to be mindful of more stuff. It's fun on its own, but the amount of idle time (queueing and flying to combat zone) can be off-putting.
Also don't ever use flight stick in RB and AB. It's the same as playing against mouse users in FPS using gamepad

>he hasnt ripped out Cortana yet

Attached: Gaijan on Russian Bias.webm (640x360, 1.56M)

it doesn't annoy me at all. what annoys me is that I can even surf the web and watch HD video while this faggot launcher has a random DL speed cap for no reason at all

You'll never get rid of it.

please post your settings, I'd like to see if I'm doing anything wrong

Attached: capture.png (1119x873, 561K)

so, ULQ removed when?

Attached: 1.jpg (901x45, 13K)

would a pilot hear the crack? at the altitude through a canopy?

I don't think either of those matter at all. Something that would decide if you heard a snap or not might be speed, though.

where can i even open that?

wrench icon on top right of the launcher

if the bullet or cannon round is traveling faster than 350mps is should crack yea,

Considering the updater uses p2p, you may want to uncheck upload limiter. Certain torrent client or tracker will throttle your download if you don't meet seed rate

Thanks for the info, time to buy some eagles

ah, thanks. Got the same settings and my upload is better than my download. Guess it's just the gaijin servers that are shitting the bed

Attached: Unbenannt.png (904x710, 258K)

Why do I constantly see M46s with fences around the turret?

nevermind, catched up after a few minutes. Probably as the other user suggested here , ýou may be lower priority if your seed speed is abysmal

>Guess it's just the gaijin servers that are shitting the bed
that's what I think, too, but it's the first time in a lot of updates that it happens to me, usually it was capped at my connection's top speed
I unchecked it a few minutes ago so I don't think that's the cause, but then again HTTP servers going at 20kB/s
might give us a clue, which is: gaiin servers shitting the bed HARD
>I'm low priority
:'(

i don't think so

How get lions fast without money?

3.7 germany

YES

I GET TO CLUB WEHRABOOS AND SPAGHETTIS

play something you're good at that has a high SL return. Planes like the PV-2D harpoon or BV238 that can bomb a few bases AND kill a few enemys are probably the best SL farming machines. After this patch probably the He-177. Dive in with 600km/h, kill two or three bases, get clustered by the enemy team, maybe take one of them down with you, repeat. If it's just for farming SL/RP, you generally want to play like an asshole and not for the win, as much as i dislike that. Rush in, do as much damage as possible, repeat.
