for everyone to enjoy

[serene birch]

the light blue hud makes me 😢

[sleek fractal]

Why ?

[serene birch]

does that not hurt your eyeballs

[sleek fractal]

No it distracts me the least from all the action

Also its my favourite colour

Might switch back to pink

[sleek fractal]

I think that was only for the Xm1

Didnt check my American 10.3s

[soft oracle]

M1 also has it

Thankfully it also has M774

[sleek fractal]

Thats why i didnt notice it

My other 10.0 will suffer

[soft oracle]

Poor M60s

[sleek fractal]

Not poor AMBT

[ruby rain]

How do you change the colour of hud?

[sleek fractal]

Settings

[south pendant]

bought the black cat, t54e1, xp-50 and 180 days premium

gonna go all in on US

[ruby rain]

Is it possible for ground battle?

[soft oracle]

F-5C engine will starve now at -0.1G

this is insane

[serene birch]

and when you roll too its great

means its no longer easy mode for lvl 5s

[north cove]

Good reason to make someone download this game, 3,2,1 go:

the snail threw down some shekels

[ruby rain]

wtf
@ 8 and 17 sec

[ruby rain]

onlyy the recording is in 480p30

just watch it again 3head

the HEAT shells exploded mid-air

https://tenor.com/view/emiru-smirk-making-faces-gif-13445569

[eternal zenith]

did you somehow upsample a 480p video this looks horrid

[eternal zenith]

oh, nevermind

[eternal zenith]

a women aged between 20 and 60 years is worth 30 shekels

[soft oracle]

110k sl is like good 3 mid tier games

[spark spindle]

I feel like a troglodyte, can't make xp-50 to work, might be due to that I flew mostly Do335 and Fw 190s and am too used to boom and zoom targets 4 km below me.

[eternal zenith]

last 7 days I developed a allergic reaction to Fw190s

so many CAS tryhards ruining my killstreak cause they can't touch me in my M18 otherwise

[frigid carbon]

i dont want to see anymore fws

too bad FM is dog

[frigid carbon]

[sleek fractal]

190C?

Was it you that suggested me to play it more?

Havent done that yet

[serene birch]

yes

[sleek fractal]

Time to play 8.0 and fuck them up

T54E1

My IS7 is eager to kill

@loud crow

Yeet

Thanks

[frigid carbon]

nice, exactly what i needed

AH HOLY FUCK

[eternal zenith]

boats

[sleek fractal]

U Boats

[covert laurel]

bro naval is the worst side of wt

the implementation sucks ass

best is ground rb imma be honest

[frigid carbon]

Unlocked mig SMT

immediately want to kms

[covert laurel]

why

[frigid carbon]

handles like a boat compared to a spaded 9.12

[covert laurel]

that's a bit for all top tiers

[north cove]

I wonder if

I should download this game

Never played this SHIET

[eternal zenith]

don't not worth it in any way

literally get honey select 2 and you'll have a better time

[ruby rain]

so you can buy yourself a woman in SA?

[eternal zenith]

just paraphrasing Leviticus 27:4

I don't condone human trafficking

[ruby rain]

ok i c

[sleek fractal]

I mean playing WT is not the issue if you play it right and not the unhealthy toxic way.

If you pay your way up with a premium Vehicle you do it wrong

When you grind normaly and spade vehicles you gain automaticly a healthy amount of SL and dont fall behind the learning curve.

It just takes time like learning any game and its mechanics

[ruby rain]

that's how I'm doing it

Playing a new tank at first is rough

[north cove]

I have no idea on how to play this shit

[somber urchin]

Dont

[frigid carbon]

@keen sequoia ALO friends are making me pick tanks so

What USSR tank should i get for premium

the T72 TURMST kinda stole my heart that shit feels so good

[ruby rain]

whats the problem?

[north cove]

The optimal settings, keybinds or.. general gamesense

[frigid carbon]

practice bro , rome wasnt built in a day

[ruby rain]

are you new to pvp games or just this one?

[north cove]

Just this one

[south pendant]

should I get the stryker

I know it's identical to the tech tree version but that's basically a backup vehicle. also it's 50% off

[south pendant]

wtlive got some player uploaded keybinds for you to try

[ruby rain]

move in cover and pop out only when have an enemy to shoot at, help blue players, memorize maps and go-to spots

im kinda new too so idk about tips

[south pendant]

Also engine volume for yourself should be low and engine volume for others should be 100%

[south pendant]

one more thing is binoculars are useful for scouting behind cover so use it frequently

in arcade battles you don't really need them since enemies are marked anyways

[ruby rain]

dont rush to get the kill if it may compromise you. assists are rewarded too and getting hits on enemy marks them for a short moment (you can mark them yourself too) for teammates who may have a better angle

[serene birch]

wrooong dont listen to this theres but one piece of advice you need

Against all the evil that Hell can conjure, all the wickedness that mankind can produce, we will send unto them... only you. Rip and tear, until it is done.

@frigid carbon @keen sequoia opinions?

[frigid carbon]

i never played this , looks interesting

[sleek fractal]

it will be just an event

like last time.

Uboats for a week

[serene birch]

I miss silent thunder

[sleek fractal]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0kSXEagcxU&ab_channel=PhlyDaily

[sleek fractal]

i dont lol

you just shot the torpedo and guide it into the enemy

[serene birch]

sounds like a krill issue

[sleek fractal]

It was like shooting my F4J missiles from the airfield into the enemies on the ground

[serene birch]

or you launch cruise missiles 😎😎

[sleek fractal]

https://wiki.warthunder.com/FJ-4B

that thing

just event

[serene birch]

eh not if they knew how to not be picked up by sonar and shit which wasnt hard

[serene birch]

yes i know the VMF

[sleek fractal]

https://wiki.warthunder.com/FJ-4B_VMF-232

It was awesome

It still is

just not as OP

[serene birch]

airframe is a lot better than it was at least

it should be miles better than it is rn

they could outrun MiG-17s irl

(with ease)

also its actual model in game looks off

but nah silent thunder was the shit

[sleek fractal]

Warthunder Ponies was THE SHIT

[serene birch]

ground rb monkeys didnt like it because of lack of constant stimulation

[sleek fractal]

as i wrote it was just launching torpedos and guiding them into the enemies

[serene birch]

it wasnt tho

[sleek fractal]

It was a guided missile test anyway

[serene birch]

you could hide and be silent to be nigh undetectable

[sleek fractal]

yeah and then ?

launch torpedos at the enemy xD

[serene birch]

what else do you want from sub gameplsy lmfao

boarding parties???

[sleek fractal]

nah

it was a missile guidance test after all

[serene birch]

silent hunter crew management then?

[sleek fractal]

still that

[serene birch]

like seriously what else is there to submarines other than hide and shoot stuff

that wouldn’t be a snoozefest in WT

[sleek fractal]

nothing thats why i dont think its a good addition and naval shouldnt exist

so shouldnt sim

relocate ressources

[serene birch]

subs could literally act as a lighttank equivalent for naval lmao

[north cove]

Ehm

I finished

3 airplanes in a mathc

that's bad is it

[serene birch]

no

decent for your start

[sleek fractal]

Arcade or Realistic ?

[serene birch]

p good honestly

[sleek fractal]

In realistic you are already a god

[north cove]

no I mean

I died 3 times

[serene birch]

oh

[sleek fractal]

oh

[north cove]

and killed 3 times

[sleek fractal]

thats ok

you will learn

[north cove]

Idk what this mode is

[serene birch]

i died a lot when i first started

[north cove]

Arcade

[sleek fractal]

Thats what reserve is for

fuck around with it

try stuff

[serene birch]

p sure my Yak-1 arcade stats are still dog lmao

[sleek fractal]

Everyone started somewhere

[north cove]

Comands feel a bit wonky but its fine

Some dude screamed at me cuz I "stole"|

[serene birch]

in arcade theres very little reason to even communicate

war thunder has no teammates only enemies in blue

[north cove]

ayyy 50k of a ..

silver lion?

[serene birch]

money

[north cove]

oh

And how should I spend this?

[serene birch]

golden eagles is the premium currency

[serene birch]

on vehicles and crews that you unlock

[north cove]

Oh I got 3 planes

Don't know how may crews I got

But since I'm Italian I thought that italian planes would be the best choice, would ti

[serene birch]

theyre better later on

but thats in RB

i know nothing about AB

[north cove]

What should be

the gun targeting distance?

[ruby rain]

some say that US, USSR and Germany are the best starting nations but idk how it applies to air

[ruby rain]

you can buy 3 more crews with SL

[north cove]

What do they do?

[ruby rain]

with more crews you can bring more vehicles to a battle

[north cove]

uNDERSTOOD

[sleek fractal]

China is the best starting Nation

You start with everything good from US and USSR

later on you get the copy pasted good Russian stuff(for Air) and then Chinas own vehicles which arent bad in WT

Sweden is also pretty good but not beginner friendly since you need to learn to shoot weakspots beforehand

Otherwise you wont consistently kill with them

In the end just try some Nations and play through what you are feeling ok with

[serene birch]

I do 600-700 personally it really only affects guns mounted on wings

its the convergence distance

what nation are you looking for

[south pendant]

T54E1 I heard is good

M18 and T14 are fun too

[serene birch]

M4 for USSR ngl

or M4A4 for chiNah

[south pendant]

I went all in on US

the only premiums that I still want to get are t114 and wolfpack

oh yeah since packs go on sale on the 6th

Is the m1 kvt worth buying?

[serene birch]

it really depends on what BR you want and for ehat nation

M4A1 FL10 is p funny

[serene birch]

It's pretty fun

funny oscalating turret

12 round autloader

sadgely it doesnt have the good round for the SA50 cannon (

i can never play UK ever again

i cant play anything :(

i can get past 69 spaded vehicles

i need to play sweden and china

maybe israel too

literally

im doing the tog task and then playing Risk fo Rain lol

[keen sequoia]

Sorry for the late response but, Turms and 2S38 would be a good lineup

BUT

if youre Buyng one ground prem only

Honestly it depends

[frigid carbon]

i know...

i can only play one

[keen sequoia]

ive loved my time with the 2s38

even though ive had it for like one full day

If youre looking for survivability, turms

Speed and aggression

2S38

[frigid carbon]

imma see what budget i have haha

[keen sequoia]

The real question is, what lines do your friends run?

[frigid carbon]

i will go back with an answer tommorow maybe

cause idk right now xD

imma go sleep

see ya later

🤝

[keen sequoia]

Adios mr bird

🤝

[keen sequoia]

Naval, honk shu honk shu mimimimi

[south pendant]

is the m1 kvt any good?

[sleek fractal]

Its the same just with a vismod

You remove that anyway cause it makes it slower

[sleek fractal]

Not even close

Its ugly and the barrels block you from aiming behind you

The vismod is making the best 10.3 tank just shit

[eternal zenith]

would be cool if you could keep the barrel pubes tho

think vismod removes the camonet on the gun

[barren coral]

What would be the point of even using it then?

[ruby rain]

it looks like a soviet tank for target practice/war games

on NATO soil

[barren coral]

No i meant ingame

I know its supposed to represent OPFOR

[ruby rain]

none it seems, it was just added for historical accuracy or somethin

• to funnel in some money from whales

[sleek fractal]

Just remove the vismod and you got 4 spawns of the best tank at 10.3 + 2 spawns with RP and SL bonus

5.3 Seconds reload with Ace crew is poggies

https://warthunder.com/en/news/8568-event-battle-of-the-atlantic-ships-against-submarines-en

@sleek fractal 2nd Star 14 Matches.Again.

[ruby rain]

Vickers 1 has been a good tank to me

[eternal zenith]

I still need to unlock it. How does it compare to the Centurion?

[ruby rain]

I like the Vickers better just bc its faster and more agile, though a Cent is a bit more likely to survive a hit (dont rely on tho, its still British )

simply assume that u cant afford to take a hit

also

[eternal zenith]

yeetz

[ruby rain]

which Cent did you mean? 3 or 10?

[eternal zenith]

Been Playing the mk. 2 a lot cause I unlocked it in BP

but that's like 1.3BR below the Vickers

[ruby rain]

oh I didnt even look at premiums.

[ruby rain]

I compared to Cent 10

[keen sequoia]

this goes hard

[keen sequoia]

P-51 gaming with the boys goes hard

[serene birch]

too bad they chose the ugly vidar and new italian spike launcher

it'd go hard if it were other vehicles nGL

[keen sequoia]

they shouldve just done Abrams leos and like a t-90

[serene birch]

well it's an israeli longbow so maybe merkava and t-80 to mirror the helis?

[keen sequoia]

true true

[serene birch]

at least the merkavas look nice

well

nice-ish

better than the vidar

[eternal zenith]

Lynx pretty

Dig the neo futuristic style of next gen

[sleek fractal]

done

time to not buy it and let it rot

[ruby rain]

is it not good?

[sleek fractal]

Its a worse 2A5

Heavier,slower

Just because of the addon Armor and a .50 its not better.

[eternal zenith]

just in time for the sale to end

[sleek fractal]

??????

Its not on sale

its not older than 2 Patches

So it wasnt even on Sale

[eternal zenith]

oh sale still for 2 days

[sleek fractal]

Thats why i also gotta pay full price for the 29G

[eternal zenith]

lmao

[sleek fractal]

@serene birch i blame you

[eternal zenith]

Time to liberate the team of those Ju 288

[sleek fractal]

Yeah,no

They even get killed by F-82´s

[eternal zenith]

the intern fucked up the achievement naming

kinda silly

[eternal zenith]

Anyone playing T-72s?

I'm really curious if you utilize the HE rounds with the 125mm gun

[cold lichen]

Vaporize any small child you see and punish camping abrams

[sleek fractal]

Russians are played stock with HE anstead if HEAT.Its completely viable

[eternal zenith]

I was surprised of the 42mm pen the HE provides then I realized it's a 125mm after all

[ruby rain]

should I get grind the Vickers 11 b4 using the VFM5?

[eternal zenith]

ouch

but you've been reloading, who knows if you'd have managed to get the kill

[dull inlet]

i must reload 😭

I HATE TELEPHONE POLES

[hollow pelican]

Bro same

[eternal zenith]

it was funny that the only move you made was to crash the pole

[mossy otter]

Shit, cant believe ive been sleeping on the P-63 this whole time, the thing farms aces like nothing else

i didnt want to stop playing the P-47 so i ended up just skipping everything until the shooting star

[hollow pelican]

Oh that wasn't me lul, it was just some player that did it randomly I guess

[sleek fractal]

Somethings off but i cant tell

[ruby rain]

the enemy will surely know to shoot you first

[sleek fractal]

The gun cause dem bushes

Which are also buggy

[ruby rain]

an annoying pay2win feature that is also buggy?

thats Gaijin as fuck

[sleek fractal]

whats p2w about bushes ?

you can get them for free each season pass

• you can shoot em off

[ruby rain]

how??

[sleek fractal]

• they were supposed to be on the lower plate but they bugged on my gun

[sleek fractal]

Warbond shop

[ruby rain]

shurley you know about the advantage of camo...

[sleek fractal]

bushes are horrible

and if you cant see the difference simply leanr it

all it does is lower the thermal signature a bit

and people who use thermal are blind anyway

[ruby rain]

Ive never got above lvl3

[sleek fractal]

Thats a you problem

GJ Gaijin

[ruby rain]

point is
many times when I got shot was bc I didnt notice the guy due to their bushes

[sleek fractal]

You can hear their engines

[ruby rain]

not always

from what distance should I be able to hear engine?

[soft oracle]

At distance you won't see them anyways the game engine will simply not render the vehicle at all

[sleek fractal]

Distance ? Then you could have seen them just by looking

just memorise what the bushes look like

easy

[sleek fractal]

new tunesia map is horrible

[ruby rain]

sure

https://tenor.com/view/stalker-stalker2-discontent-anger-gif-25555837

[sleek fractal]

imho its a skill issue,if i was able to learn it you can too

[ruby rain]

I know

Im just malding a bit

[sleek fractal]

ok thats understandable

[dull inlet]

YEEEES

[frigid carbon]

go for it king , what are you using to grind

[dull inlet]

Su 25 k And premium for 180 days))

[frigid carbon]

i did the same

get the mig23 MLD then use that to get mig29

[dull inlet]

Ahaha good luck with that)

[frigid carbon]

aigh i think im gonna get the 2S38 and the TURMS because yes

Rip money

[sleek fractal]

like everyone else

RU Teams on 10.3 are full 2S38

[frigid carbon]

i mean i wont blame them that shit is nasty

[sleek fractal]

not if they are to dumb to play it

Which is the case

America 10.3 is a lot of fun rn

[frigid carbon]

and it's always like this with premiums , when i got the su25k it was all fun until everyone had su25 and f5cs

[sleek fractal]

Yep.Every Sale is the same

[frigid carbon]

wish i could go for US but i have top tier plane so i wanna use both

maybe next sale i will go for US

or germany

[sleek fractal]

Germany has the best Mig29 now

[frigid carbon]

yea , but they have shit air premiums to grind etc

only good one is the lazur M which is mediocre i guess

[sleek fractal]

But for the best mix of vehicles i would rather take Sweden also because of the Gripen unless Germany also gets one

Lazur was really fun

until 12.0 came

[frigid carbon]

ye idk how fun it is now at uptier

yep

[sleek fractal]

@sleek fractal 3. Star scratch that.It was 12

[frigid carbon]

i did it , the devil won

....and i took this to 12.3 because i forgot to take the mig off

and i survived

got 2 assists

[sleek fractal]

That thing should be on 11.0 at least

It can also carry missiles

so its 11.7 even

[keen sequoia]

I've got the best USSR lineup on god

SU-57, T-80s

all the goodies

[ruby rain]

11.0 is practically 12.0

[hollow pelican]

I guess you're next best bet is a T-80UK?

[keen sequoia]

Researching the BMP-2M rn

[hollow pelican]

Or that

[keen sequoia]

I just find it funny to say to my mates "Yo I got SU-57s and i got a T-80 too"

then send a picture of fucking low tier tanks

[keen sequoia]

exactly

[eternal zenith]

why that bush carrying two anime pillows

[sleek fractal]

[eternal zenith]

I killed a ~~abrams ~~ some mbt with the 30mm grenade launcher

[keen sequoia]

[eternal zenith]

trying to figure out how tho

couldn't have been an abrams. I first thought it was due to burning to death but the vog don't cause fire on a abrams

still fun to harass by shooting the tracks off a tank behind cover

[frigid carbon]

yeah the 2s38 is something

too bad , exactly as people and Lafe said , team is literally 70% of them and maybe a few TURMS and we kinda get rolled

still , im making my xp and money so

no buyer remorse

[keen sequoia]

It's REALLY good with teammates

[eternal zenith]

It's such a nice platform too

[keen sequoia]

when i play it solo i get steamrolled

yet when i play with a mate who has the turms

I scout with drones for him

he either insta kills or immobilizes them

and then i pen em with APFSDS and bada bing

[eternal zenith]

I mean you got a 57mm autocannon with 220+ pen

no need to rely on a turms

[frigid carbon]

ye su25k + 2s38 + turms and thats my lineup for this year probably , this game ate some money from me

i will scavange for food this week

[keen sequoia]

Not relying on it

but working with it

its a good flanker

otherwise the best way to play it is to sit close to the cap

wait for a tank to slip up

kill it, and then flank to their side

[sleek fractal]

I killed way to many 2S38 today in my Stryker and M1

[frigid carbon]

is any of your squadrons open or shit ,i cant find a decent squadron for the life of me

all i have been in have only offline players

[sleek fractal]

Our 12 Fun Clans are closed til next year sadly

[keen sequoia]

I've never played with randoms

Luckily i have a few friends who play the game at the same BRs as me

[eternal zenith]

My fav thing this WE was playing the 9040 with Billy missiles

[sleek fractal]

We clean those monthly so you dont have inactive players

[eternal zenith]

to play with or get SRP?

[keen sequoia]

And how i mostly see people using the 2S38 is rushing

And it doesnt work

its the perfect tank for a passive playstyle

[frigid carbon]

srp

wanna start getting the bmp too

so i have a full 3 10.0 lineup for ussr

at some point

[eternal zenith]

I just sort by Auto invite with >100 players

kinda lucked with my current squad, don't kick you after 9 days of missed target

but they closed now for some reason

think it's for some streamer or something. don't care enough to investigate

Konamis Kingdom, maybe they accept invites again

last 5 cycles were full payout

[frigid carbon]

i will try out thanks for suggesting

i just want to grind decent xp

[keen sequoia]

Mfw

Fuckin

2 capture zone gamemode

Runs out of time before either team wins

[eternal zenith]

classic

[ruby rain]

how are bushes "horrible"?
is there any drawback to having your tank bushed up?

[sleek fractal]

THey stick out.

You can recognise them easily also they are always put on weakspots so just shoot em xD

And since they fall off after being MG ´ed or artied they are more useless.

this, they dont really match any bushes you see on maps. and they have a lower render distance so at certain ranges players wont even see them and just see your tank instead

up until the MLA they are mediocre

[ruby rain]

inb4 Laff says that you can get them for free on the warbond shop

[eternal zenith]

I love the look

[sleek fractal]

Longer barrel better for longer distances with a shorter barrel you get a better close distance firing arc

Nice cock

You can perfectly lob a shell over ridges onto the enemy with the short barrel

[ruby rain]

Who is "you"?

longer barrel having 120m/s more velocity is interesting

Make me wonder how big the chamber pressure is on either

[eternal zenith]

good map

[sleek fractal]

The new one?

Didnt have that yet

Heard its trash

The 2nd Tunesia map is absolut garbo due rendering distances and being able to nearly snipe from spawn to spawn

[ruby rain]

Ive had a few games on that one. Im not the best judge but it was pretty aight

[eternal zenith]

sniping spawn spawn is not too far off. Depending on where you spawn it's possible

still having tanks pop in and out with max render setup is so silly

I think the rendering issue was the reason they took it out for a few update cycles

[eternal zenith]

I think it has great potential, lots of cover, interesting terrain. Only issue may be spawn placement since it leads to spawn sniping but that can be avoided if you don't just run hills and use the trenches

well, a trench for me is everything that goes a bit further and covers your machine

hills probably better word

but not that high

[sleek fractal]

So like every WT Map there is

Its all hard to balance anyway because of 2nd WW to modern Times

[eternal zenith]

Depends, It doesn't have so much useless tree density

and with MBTs you can at least use the gradual slopes while the WW2 tanks can take advantage of open areas

[sleek fractal]

Good approach with layout change per era

[soft oracle]

Flanders isn't that bad

Quite decent

[sleek fractal]

They should make it for every map

[eternal zenith]

I love the HSTV

[keen sequoia]

I mean even the online page isnt on sale

[eternal zenith]

usually it's 12pm UTC

so an hour they'll prolly release a update to update game icons

or however their display works

[keen sequoia]

I mean it should've been 11:00 GMT TODAY which is 7pm GMT+8 aaaaaand

[sleek fractal]

Lel no TURMS in sale

not even the f5c is there

[keen sequoia]

Yippee....

[frigid carbon]

well the 25k is on sale

AGAIN

[keen sequoia]

my mates said nah its bad

[frigid carbon]

i will say L take

its got its weaknesses but bad? No

[keen sequoia]

hmmmmm

its really tempting to buy it

But

Mig....

@frigid carbon Whats your experience been like with the SU-25K and how long did it take you to reach top tier?

[frigid carbon]

2-2.5 months

experience ...well , it can get boring , i was only bombing

not pvp

the longer you survive to bomb stuff the more xp

[keen sequoia]

hmm

[mossy otter]

totally, but i personally find the apds to be super frustrating

[somber urchin]

Donko

[serene birch]

my KD in the su-25 is like 200 kills to ~90 deaths

its a very underrated jet and if you know what youre doing you can bonk

CAS for GRB tho it’s kinda meh

like kh-29s are fine but its just not great like most russian cas (except for like 27K and the better Su’)

Also its kinda funny that People DDOSéd Gaijins Servers cause there upset with the Package sales.

[mossy otter]

i support them in their endeavors

give me 90% off premium packages or im snipping all of the cables

[sleek fractal]

i rather think their mad that theres no TURMS or KFIR Canard xD

[mossy otter]

why would they want the kfir? i kick its ass any day of the week

cant be that good

[sleek fractal]

Cause Israel grind to Barak 2

People dont care if its good or not

Look at Russia 10.0 rn

You can farm the 2S38 masses rn and its tons of fun

They think it can magicaly pen anything

[serene birch]

better than using the dogshit in the tree tho

its slightly better dogwater

[ruby rain]

for me this is a pretty good game

(test-site 2271, C side)

[serene birch]

I JUST

nutted in the potato salad

[keen sequoia]

Hmmmmmm

I just can't decide if i should buy the SU-25 rn, grind for a few months and get to top tier with it

or just wait 2 months for new years sale

and get the MIG-23ML

IF THEY ACTUALLY FUCKING INCLUDE IT THIS TIME

[serene birch]

I wouldn't

have you played the F-16 or even the MiG-29 against the ML lol

[keen sequoia]

Nope but i've played phantoms against top tier and if you know what you're doing they can still be decent, i assume its the same with the mig?

Oh, and another reason for waiting is because my mates also wanna get the mig so we can be a squadron of 3 MLs

[serene birch]

MLs get dogged on

the F-4S at least has x8 AAMs

you get x6 with the ML but 4 are R-60Ms which are heavily meh at top tier cause you can jsut flare it

[keen sequoia]

hmmmm

[serene birch]

and the R-24T/R is fine but F-16s will notch you and notch on your dog too

[keen sequoia]

I see i see

[serene birch]

whereas the F-4S/J has good radar and good SARH so its a non-issue sorta

[keen sequoia]

True

Oh and also another positive for the SU

i can use it in GRB so i can atleast have 2 10.0 vehicles

2S38, if i get a few kills t hen die spawn in the SU

And then after that use my backup for the 2S38

[serene birch]

yeah the Su-25 isnt BAD

its just sorta like russian cas

not great not terrible

[keen sequoia]

I'll MAINLY be using it for ARB to just bomb

maybe add a few gunpods if im feeling a little bit extra in the mood for some tomfoolery

[serene birch]

honestly gamer its got enough maneuverability to dogfight dumb F-5Cs

[keen sequoia]

[serene birch]

cause its got quite good acceleration too

and it holds its energy somewhat decently

[keen sequoia]

I was gonna say i dont feel bad for lvl 20 F-5C timmies

but, i was also a lvl 20 F-5C timmy

LVL 24 F-5C to play with the boys

and now I'm actually half decent so y'know

Can't dog on the timmies too much

[serene birch]

i dont dog on them in general cause it pays to keep the game running, yeah theyre annoying but hey if you want the thing at the end of the day who cares

plus i bought it anyway

cause MiG-28

[keen sequoia]

YOUVE GOT THE SKIN AWOOGA

[serene birch]

ye i often do buy pre-orders if the skin is cool

cause like how can you say no to some of these

[keen sequoia]

that do go hard

[serene birch]

kfir one especially

love the USAAF skin for them

[keen sequoia]

Also, what payload would you recommend for the SU-25?

because uh

[serene birch]

what for CAS or

[keen sequoia]

I'm convinced enough to buy it

[keen sequoia]

CAS and base bombing in ARB

[serene birch]

CAS

[hollow pelican]

Indeed, quite enjoyable

[keen sequoia]

[serene birch]

idk i never bombed with it

so prolyl just napalm

[keen sequoia]

Bet

[serene birch]

but i truly dont know

i dont bomb even to stock grind

[keen sequoia]

8 napalm is 2 bases so lfg

[serene birch]

with the F-14B when i first got it i just forced headons

[keen sequoia]

[serene birch]

im doing the same with the vark rn

2000 rounds of brrrt

[keen sequoia]

Unironically i like it as a bomber/fighter

bomb a base

then just head on from 2km and let the M61 rip

because i mean 2000 rounds

[serene birch]

yeah thats what my friend told me to do but i find bombing so boring personally

[keen sequoia]

dont let the enemy even get close

I cant wait for the 5 vulcans though

[serene birch]

ye

top tier stock grind is a bit of a snooze so im doing the vark inbetween lots of grb

[keen sequoia]

I just love doing 6.7 US ground, then when me and my mate get bored

go to 11.7

and launch 8 phoenix's combined

[serene birch]

ive been jamming french 7.7

1963 ebr based

[keen sequoia]

yippee!!

[keen sequoia]

ey @serene birch How should i use the rockets from your CAS preset?

I'm at a decent distance rn in test drive and launching rockets but idk how im meant to see targets in GRB

[serene birch]

the dumb-fire ones?

[keen sequoia]

Nah the guided ones

[serene birch]

i just rely on markers, either the ones that pop up when something gets damaged or if someone actually pings

or scouts

[keen sequoia]

Fair enough

[serene birch]

if you set your bind right you can lock the ground near its area and luanch that way

hence why isay russian cas is meh

[keen sequoia]

the fit

[mossy otter]

hey guys i found the most useful team

ace courtesy of the F8U-2 Crusader II

[keen sequoia]

@serene birch You were right

its really easy to kill clueless F-5C players in the SU-25

Bombed a base, outmanouevered an F-105 and BRRRTed him

then missiled t he F-5

[serene birch]

mhm its how i got 220 kills to 94 deaths with it

@serene birch @frigid carbon

see told you

[keen sequoia]

ended up with 6 kills 2 bases

Holy fucking shit

[serene birch]

Su-25 slaps

[keen sequoia]

the main 30mm with the 2 extra gunpods fucking demolish in head ons

[serene birch]

just the 30mm did me just fine so i could pull a bit better

just do cheeky 1 mouse taps at them

its very accurate and fast

[keen sequoia]

My loadout for bases is 40 rockets can't remember the name but they're the rocket pods with the higher explosive count) 4 napalm and 2 gunpods

works like a charm

bomb a base

then rocket pod the little arty things

do some head ons, then RTB

[serene birch]

S-25Os maybe

its a potent thing to fight in

no one expects it

[keen sequoia]

S-8KOs

bring 2 pods of them

4 napalm then the gun pods

[serene birch]

oh yuck

[hollow pelican]

Too bad napalm sucks

[serene birch]

so fun fact i forgot which one but one of the rockets where you can only carry 8 max can kill the alaska in like 3 salvos

[keen sequoia]

Napalm is the best for bombing bases?

[hollow pelican]

exactly, We'd hope it have more use aside from bombing bases

[keen sequoia]

Ok?

Idk what youre getting at considering im talking about bombing bases

[hollow pelican]

I just meant in uses aside from Base destruction

[keen sequoia]

fair enough

[serene birch]

I mean its great at lower tiers when theres SPAA up

cause 90% of lowtier SPAA is opentop

[frigid carbon]

i guess its ok for weight and manuevrabilty , i just went 8x 500 bombs

you can take 2 bases down in 1 go

[sleek fractal]

You dont get a TnT bonus which means lower rewards

[keen sequoia]

hmm

[sleek fractal]

Napalm has a "use" its just not as good as a bomb

[keen sequoia]

will just 4 500s be enough for a base?

[sleek fractal]

You need usualy 1200kg of tnt for a base

So just look how much tnt those bombs got and throw away

[keen sequoia]

bet

[sleek fractal]

Napalm damages radiators of tanks and since a broken radiator can disable tanks now it has a use.

But i can insta kill with a bomb

[keen sequoia]

Based?

[frigid carbon]

yeah its 4x500 for 1 base

[keen sequoia]

bet

[frigid carbon]

it's also better because dipshit teammates wont steal your base while it burns

from napalm

you will kill it outright

[keen sequoia]

true

[mossy otter]

i guess fuck the guy that told me to bring napalm because "3 destroys a base"

i actually didnt know that tnt bonus was a thing, thanks

[sleek fractal]

https://old-forum.warthunder.com/index.php?/topic/576513-why-do-different-bomb-loads-give-different-rewards/

Its a balancing thing

Cause with Napalm you can bomb more bases so you get less rewards

Thats why the Vark would be a good SL grinder if you can bomb 6-8 bases with its Bombs.

[keen sequoia]

neither
