Can we keep at least this one free of spam, schizoshit and avatarfaggotry? Please?
>>1099504 >there was an actual warthunder general on 4chin Oh god you guys are still playing that game of suffering.
>>1099581 If it's any consolation, it was mostly kept alive by a few undesirables who constantly threw off-topic chimpouts and generally made the thread one of the worst on the board. Speaking of, one of them seems to be back already.
You guys try the event map? A certain youtuber made it look like it'll be impossible to beat but I just tried it and it's super easy. Now that's without other players of course but if you're alone it's no problem
In for what?
>>1099706 The Wild Weasel one?
>>1099624 How did the threads devolve during the whole Russia-Ukraine war. I remember when they invaded Crimea, people would just team kill tanks, based on their flags, as a result flag decals were no longer free and that was ages ago.
>>1099783 Retards on both sides getting baited, hopefully (unfortunately) with IDs you can no longer argue for both sides.
>>1099783 Thinly veiled coordinated spam disguised as "thread culture" as the undesirables called it and near daily chimpouts about /pol/shit mostly. I'd post a little compilation of one of the spammers' doings but I'd rather not open old (not really) wounds unless absolutely necessary.
>>1099837 Russian and Chinese IPs are banned here from what I heard, so there's that. >>1099837 >>1099852 Thank you for your answers.
>>1099943 Russians weren't the ones doing the spamming, virtually all of it was against them.
>>1100045 I mean it's probably not that hard as is right now but with a couple of MiG-21s on your ass things begin looking grim.

>>1101271 even more reason why traffic is so low
>>1101037 WE are still here.
>>1101272 No, but the brewing becomes a chore where you have to fly to the other side of the map to farm resources. And that's just the main issue anyway, the controls suck for certain maneuvers, the water based shit is stupid, at one point you should get some kind of actual economy, not just you carrying the entire thing etc.

>>1108300 was there another thread here before this one? was looking over the past couple days on /v/ and /vg/ here and saw nothing
>>1109451 Almost certainly no, I'd been checking this place regularly to see if something pops up. I thought about doing it myself but first decided to check with [WARTG], in the hours it took to confirm my suspicions one was made.
>>1109556 other boards use warosu as an archive and you can independently post there so some anons linked to new threads here but i guess /vg/'s archives dont really do that. i also havent opened war thunder or checked the squad chat either to check

>>1110320 Tornado is at 13.0 with 4 AIM-9Ms + BOL pods and 4 AMRAAMs
>>1110655 And it has one of the worst FMs in the game while the Gripen has one of the best. Stop pretending it's solely about the kit, flight performance matters a whole lot.
>>1110682 French mains wouldn't have sperged so hard about the Rafale getting only 6 missiles if FM mattered that much past 12.7, the 13.0 Tornado is cracked because of missile and countermeasure spam. Gripen is decent but it's like the 6th best jet at that BR because of how limited it is. 4 ARH missiles at 13.7 is super grim.

>>1116997 > is that warthunder? Yes > it looks like a lot of fun. Thats the moments I have chosen to save, most of the game isn't like that. It's Almost Fun™ which means the game has somewhat complex systems but very shallow progression and meh gamemodes. And it's been like that for years. The main source of complexity is sheer amount of stuff you have to know but nobody gonna teach you (and it changes with each major update so your knowledge gets obsolete with each new meta season) and the sheer amount of grind. You can skip the grind if you are good OR if you pay up. Most people on high tiers are just paying up, so it leads to full lobbies of kids and wallet warriors who have no idea how to play or how to be useful or at least not detrimental to teammates while using comples and very meticulously simulated systems as avionics, anti-air missiles and radars, supermaneuverability and relaxed stability, supersonic aerodynamics etc. The devs are also not the smartest or kindest people, which makes the game to do cruel things to its players on a regular basis. > is there infantry or is it just jets & tanks? Jets, tanks, helicopters, ships. There was AI infantry on maps as april fools joke, as well as joke trailer for player-controlled infantry. Airplanes are most fun for me, as I am into aircrafts and dogfighting. Also aircrafts have least grind (if you know what you are doing ofc) Tanks are probably most populated gamemode because it leeches off WoT playerbase while trying to do something Wargaming wont ever do, in return being by far the grindiest gamemode, with bottom of the barrel playerbase which gets milked dry. Ships are dead and boring gamemode, populated by bots and rmt chinese players who are just farming ingame currency because balancing through economy is a very good and smart idea. Overall it is ok game if you don't have any better things to do while listening to podcasts. Yeah it can be fun sometimes, yeah it looks beautiful sometimes. But all gamemodes are flawed and stale, after you done the grind there is nothing to do really. So most of the playerbase plays intermittently, leaving the game for years, then returning, getting to newly added most modern top tier vehicles and then deleting game again. The game isn't really fair and if you know that you can club newbies like there's no tomorrow, and it will never be fixed, as the method of balancing devs chose does not really works, and will never work.
>>1117348 Well, i think you've successfully convinced me not to invest my time. Does it have a combined arms mode where jets, tanks, helicopters, and ships all fight each other on the same map?
>>1117462 Almost. Air R(ealistic) B(attles) is a buncha planes over a battlefield filled with AI ground and sometimes naval units. Naval RB is boats with some player plane support but it's shit and nobody plays it. Ground RB is almost everything, ground vehicles, helicopters and planes but no boats in that one.
(3.80 MB 1200x676 mirage.webm)

>>1117462 The game modes and maps are boring, flawed and stale to players who have thousands of hours in it. In the low tiers you will absolutely have fun if you vibe with the gameplay. There's nothing out there that compares to the ease of getting into it and the heights you can train your skill to. As jaded as I am with the game, I'd still recommend new players to try it. It's free after all.
>>1117520 ground br sounds pretty close to what I'm looking for in a game. shame there's no ships though >>1117554 >It's free after all. you really can't beat that price, maybe I'll give it a go when I inevitably get burned out on star trek online again in
>>1117554 Free as in free career investment. >>1117723 Whatever choice you gonna do I respect it and probably can help, but dont pay up outright, since no amount of money will fix the game, only ease the pain temporarily. And there are plenty of ways to spend your money in the game without getting anything really useful in return.
>>1117723 >>1117914 Well yea, I guess it's free as in "it has no monetary requirement to begin playing". But you will pay. Either with money or with time. Personally, I buy a yearly premium sub every year during the christmas sale and I feel pretty comfortable with that.
>>1118148 > Either with money or with time. as well as your nerves, soul, sanity and whatever left. I've been playing this game for more than 5000 hours over 12 years, but now I finally decided to move on and sold the account.
>>1116664 That was clearly a retard, he did even drop his drop tank. >>1116997 Is trick, it looks fun, but is actually is not fun. It's designed that way. >>1117348 Infantry is coming.
>>1117520 >>1117723 Anon failed to mention that you can do custom battles. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUykJHsDxp0 https://live.warthunder.com/feed/missions/ This game is the epitome of missed opportunity, there are people doing free shit like skins and maps and game modes and gaijin just refuses to capitalize on it and make the game fun, because the business model is making the player suffer so he pay not to suffer.
>>1118193 How much?
>>1118563 I thought about mentioning them but it's such a small part and so few people play it that it didn't seem worth it.
>>1118523 That was minigun gunpod, they cannot be jettisoned. >>1118563 I did, but because custom battles are irrelevant, since all the progress tied to main gamemodes. So even if you create duels or whatever with your buddies, your possibly fun game time does not get paid by the game and you cannot get anything that gonna help you get more planes. Apart from possible learning opportunities perhaps. Although I agree with you on everything else in your post. >>1118592 Buyer have paid me more than ten times of what I've spent in the game in total + comission, about 1000$. But it took me 1.5 years to max out 5 techtrees, including half year on deciding to actually make it and waiting for the guy who would dumb and rich enough to actually pay for it.
>>1118612 There is also WWM and single player. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fEVc12w0II On paper the game should cover almost anything a combat game could. Drop in enlisted and it's basically anything anyone could ever ask for. But then you looks at the actual stuff and realize how bad it is. >single player is balanced by multiplayer, it is essentially unplayable now >wwm, single most popular mode, that didn't require you to unlock vehicles, much less pay, is nowhere to be seen >maps get smaller instead of bigger, dumbed down so you can just go ahead and not pay attention >jets are extremely compressed, you can face enemies that outperform you in every way >boats they have literally not made a single good decision
Fellow navalCHADs, it is with great pleasure that I announce there's FINALLY a battleship simulator in the making. Not some shitty RTS or WoWS clone but an actual sim on the level of Silent Hunter (except it's not about sissymarines) where you're the one doing realistic gunnery, damage control and navigation. Soon, the only reason to bother with WT Naval will be gone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MecKcx-4EcY
>>1119247 But I don't want to do the grunt work, I want to do the captaining.
>>1119247 >>1118876 I am looking forward for whatever Yarnhub is making, which sounds like something close to Heroes & Generals and Battlefield but bettter. If done right, it can actually blow WT out of the water. https://youtu.be/b8ChW8zkxns

I firmly believe this game is just a daycare for russian kids where they get to dunk on grown ass men who think they are playing a serious military semi-simulator. also something you might not know All penetration value for non autocanon APFSDS is taken from what the round would penetrate at 2km range irl M735 would have had 350-400mm pen at that range yet gayshit pulled off 292mm straight from their huge gaping ass. ALSO many faggots on Gayddit were questioning how the T-80 got knocked out in ukraine by a inferior APFSDS round straight into its front plate. its very simple, the engagement happened at <750m. early 70s APFSDS rounds be it 105mm or 125mm could penetrate any modern tank basically anywhere at that range to estimate a approximate value at unrecorded distances you just take a value from 2km range (lowest recorded distance) and multiply it by 1.5 up to 2 for minimal and maximal possible penetration value at 0 - 500m

in-game chat is called vg with the pw being "memes" might be useful again with people being fragmented into various squads As for the general itself i currently know of only this one and the one on the sharty, with the one here generally being more active during US hours while the other one is more active during EU hours with both more or less having the same amount of activity. Honestly it'll be kind of interesting to see which one of the 2 sites comes out on top when it comes to /wtg/ or if the community will just split as there's currently a very real possibility of 4chan dying due to quite a number of its staff leaving after that recent fiasco.

So I just spent literally the entire day getting everything perfectly set up for some VR SIM. Turns out it fucking sucks and I wasted all my time. There's never any BVR because everyone sticks to the deck like glue and it's impossible to tell whether anyone is near you. Then the team compositions are outdated and retarded. For example germany can never be on the same team as USA. This fucking sucks, I was looking forward to it too...

Where BP articles, though?
I read somewhere that war thunder is more realistic than DCS in some ways, is that true?
>>1175660 not really
>>1175660 Here's what I found IR missiles historically were one of DCS’s weaker points. until recently, they did not differentiate heat signatures finely (e.g. any throttle above idle looked the same) and would often either ignore or fully chase flares on a probability basis​. Eagle Dynamics has been working to improve this (DCS 2.9 introduced more realistic IR counter-countermeasures). Aside from that, DCS generally exceeds War Thunder in weapon fidelity.
>>1175660 missile mechanics are better in war thunder. they both suck balls regardless
One thing that confuses me is how in war thunder going low is a near guaranteed way to beat radar missiles and in DCS that doesn't nearly work as well.
I guess that's why it's going to 10.0
>>1176830 multipathing is more realistically modelled in dcs
>>1175660 The issue is that there is no "full" simulation as that would melt your pc, or any pc for that matter, even the trainer software is not a fully accurate sim, you pick and choose what you want to model, and both games are only approximating fm and other mechanics.

What's a vehicle that you started using a lot recently? I started using the BMP-2 a lot and I really like the stabilizer + APDS since it's fun to strafe the sides of early MBTs and hope that one of the APDS rounds hits their ammo stowage. I have a dogshit KDR though, it's like 1.2 right now as I die really quickly if I don't hit anything useful. >>1183550 Maybe it's an opponent quality issue.

The German 13.0 one is just a direct downgrade to the Su-27 with no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

>>1214770 Yeah, I just carried on with the new control though, far easier to unfuck tank controls than try and figure out a competent setup for plane controls!
>>1208321 No, variable time = proximity. You can shoot down aircraft more easily with them because they explode close enough to fuck up something that doesn't have armor and direct hits are of course far more difficult. When you shoot ground targets they tend to explode too soon to do anything and sometimes they'll explode if they're just too close to the ground or an obstacle. Occasionally you might be able to take out a light vehicle hiding behind cover that way, but you'll want to bring mostly the other shell. The OE F3 one has very similar stats but more explosive mass so it will probably give a bigger explosion than the default one.
>>1208321 its meant for anti aircraft work. 3 meter trigger radius means it'll explode 3 meters before the target
>>1216759 But you can toggle the fuse between proximity and impact?

Unless you're in a squad coordinating via chat or voice it's impossible to win as USA. You have better chances of winning by killing all the MiG-21s instead of trying to play the objective. If you don't get Afghanistan you pretty much lost from the moment you load in.

>>1221441 It's still two daily tasks, you just get different ones for each mode.
I'd like a friend to play warthunder with but im new...
>>1214770 I guess if this was a real life scenario they probably just conclude that it is impossible to attack without some lost and just send out boomer to die maybe the big reason they managed to win gulfwar so hard because they had f117 to take out the sam sites? with nam era the best plane they got was f-4
>>1222432 meant for >>1215022 the quick reply on this site is kinda retard
Is there a PVE mode yet that isn’t the "Destroy incoming waves"?

>>1220598 Oh really? I might have to give it a try then. You think they'll eventually move to modern stuff like war thunder?

>>1227918 I feel like it would have to be a different mode, otherwise I don't see how you would balance things when small arms didn't change drastically over 80 years. What BR would you place an MP5? It's from 1964 at the earliest, but its using a pistol caliber and 30 round mags, who would use that over a PPSh-41 with 71 round drums? The M16 is also from 1964, but that early version also had 20 round mags in an intermediate caliber, it would be doing less damage than the FG-42 with the same rate of fire and magazine capacity. If that makes sense, that's why I can't see it happening, at least within the current ruleset of the game. Unless of course they want to just go full Warthunder with it and give us pic related.
>>1222371 What's your IGN.
Ehe~
>>1228921 have you at least try looking for used one first? you know how these expensive vidya accessories goes sometime someone want to try these things else then they get bored of it after couple of weeks and never touch them ever again before getting sold online as used its the same situation with fighting game arcade sticks got to save every pennies man those DCS module are very expensive
still tho 1k for a hotas set imagine all the premium packs you could buy on warthunder
>>1229183 Nah, I like my new shiny things to be untouched. If I somehow end up not liking it I'll just send it back and get all my money back. I don't even mind the DCS module prices. And War Thunder premiums aren't any cheaper anymore either... This is mostly for DCS of course (F-35 and Eurofighter can't come soon enough) but I'll give it a go in WT as well
When?
>>1230112 15 minutes
How are you supposed to kill the SAM sites? You just get assblasted with AA if you ever get close
>>1230181 That's why you shoot them from a distance. see >>1100341
>>1230233 I can't see them highlighted like that. I can only spot them after they fire
>>1230414 Well yea, that's how it works. The highlighting is only from the user mission. Go up, find the spot they shoot from and get in range flying low.
>>1230414 >>1230181 Don't bother it's a shit mode
>>1230473 I played a few more matches and got it working. You need to bait the SAM site missile launch to spot it and then dive to the ground to evade it. Also you only need to destroy the radar to take out the SAM site I think. The biggest problem are the Shilkas but usually you can at least get the SAM site before dying. There isn't really much PVP. If you see a Mig, you try to shoot it with missiles if it's in front of you. Otherwise you just flare and focus on the SAM site

>>1231396 Yeah that would work as well, for both games I imagine.
>>1231396 When was this first suggested? When rumors about jets were first confirmed?
The fuck did they do with this update? My RX 7900 XT is running at 100% just sitting in the menu screen. Did they install a fucking crypto miner in the game with todays update?
>>1232164 always has been the case
>>1232164 I've been getting some dips to exactly 7 fps for like 5-10 seconds after most matches.
>actually competent squad mate in a Prinz Eugen too bad good games are 1 in a million
Man the Meteor is so much better than the other jets as a fighter. Though the Jabo will fuck everything up way more quickly if it gets the opportunity.
>Play France 7.7 on EU server Get repeatedly stomped into the ground. >Play France 7.7 on the US server God of war amongst men, 7-11 kills repeatedly. What the fuck gives? Its consistent too, to the point where if I'm playing 7.7 France I turn off the EU server to have a guaranteed good time.
>>1100341 Impressive, very nice. Now let's see you do that on a real match with 5+ SAMs heading your way from different directions, no markers and 2 MiG-21s closing in fast from either sides and with the right phantom instead of the gook one.
>>1233266 European servers might be harder to play as there can be less subhumans depending on the hour unlike american servers where brazilians log in as soon as chinks log out. Also Frogs are europeans who play on european servers, 90% of the people who play their own nation are certified retards.
>>1146014 Germany, especially if you have the WW1 tanks from the event.
Once USA team knows what to do, there is very little USSR team can do to counter getting SAM site rushed. USSR pilots want to fly low so they can scan the sky for black dots. If you fly high you will miss the F-4's. It takes 2-3 experienced f-4s to win the match. It is very hard to intercept them with migs because they are very hard to see from above
We'll be going home soon, can't believe I began to miss them Papa Daniels.
>can't believe I began to miss them spam You're everything wrong with 4cuck.
>>1146014 >>1234857 Sweden also has their sabot and USSR has the BT-5
>>1146014 Britain. They have great mobility and the 2pdr paired with stabilizers and smoke grenades on solid vehicles
>>1146014 China has the M8 LAC and T-26, so I'd say that they have quite the overwhelming BR 1.0 lineup. T-26 is a bit slow but the M8 LAC is so good that it probably makes up for it. I like the Italian 1.0 lineup once you get the HVAP belts, but they all have paper armour that dies to low caliber MG fire if you're unfortunate.
>>1233266 EU is the designated white people server, the others are for subhumans.
Event good. I was at 0RP when I started researching the F-18
>>1236708 You could always easily dominate events with squads, running into competent people outside of that is a miracle.

>>1241333 got to deal with ECW man
I kinda want VT5
>>1242391 You and me both. I've got both ZTZ 99s waiting for the sale to purchase and I'm slowly chipping away at the 99A to be my first 12.0. Not Chinese, I just wanted Russian style vehicles without the filler and desperately wait for a North Korean subtree. I will be actually pissed if Gaijin pussies out and makes a stunted united Korean tree.
>>1242578 It's a shame you didn't get to play them before all the NATO reload buffs. Was definitely a contender for best top tier tank at the time. I hope China gets another MBT soon.
>>1242383 thre is only weapon lock air and weapon lock ground I'm obviously not firing atgms at planes and complaining though some do track well enough for head ons

So the way it works is heat has higher post pen damage at lower levels of armour while apdfds is the opposite with more post pen at higher armour?
>>1243443 >tanks >germany and USA Don't even bother
Fuck me why cant people deal with a fucking Maus. Just HE the cunt in the lower turret face and the big bitch gets overpressured. Job done. Last match 2 of them were running rampant over my team until I went over and dispatched the fat fucks.
>>1244619 They're thinking "If I crash into the ground this cunt doesnt get any reward, and I'm too much of a shitter to be able to win this fight". Its happening more and more frequently when winning dogfights, once the enemy knows hes fucked he deliberately faceplants the floor to fuck you out of rewards.
>>1244619 chinese mentality of >it is not enough that i win others must lose

comically overpowered? no no, it's called silly >>1244872 HEAT does fuckall damage because lol, lmao but it can overpressure like HE, shows up as 'High-explosive fragmentation' on the statcard. Starship/Sheridan's heat for example can simply hit a T-54/55/62's turret face and they'll get evaporated since their hull roof is thin AP and APDS/FS do more damage with more armor since there's more pieces to spall, but if they barely penetrate, like 100mm pen round vs 90mm armor, you'll most likely just simpsonize the crew since the round will have too little energy

>>1250445 powercreep is already here tbh I dont think 10.7 premium is worth getting anymore every matches will uptier you against 11.7 anyway consider they are almost the same price you might as well get 11.7 unless you are banking on that rare downtier against 9.7 once every 20 matches or want to bring some 10.7 CAS and dont want to deal with pantsir if we strictly only talk about TT MBT copy paste slops of course but maybe if you like the net camo on the pzbtl then there is that too personally I find top tier much easier to play these days 10.7 can easily fight 11.7 unlike 7.7 against 8.7 or 6.7 against 7.7
>>1248180 I prefer the AMX-50 (TOA100) personally. I wish these vehicles had stabilizers but they're still excellent even in an uptier.
>>1247632 What was that sketch where two people are playing something like Unreal Tournament and the game won't end because they keep killing themselves to prevent the other from getting kills
>>1247822 They are not winning anything, I finished with 4 kills that mission after rearming, another one tried to crash but I managed to clip him before. It's getting ridiculous, I could understand accidents or when you are in a full uptier against someone you can't touch, but it seems like people in the better plane do this more often now when there is a chance they will lose. Maneuver kills can't come soon enough.
What killed the hype?

Is there a list of these special tasks somewhere so I can find which ones are the easiest to do? I'm certainly not going to try and do something the requires me to farm a particular tank, that sounds like pure hell.
