How do you even accomplish this.

that or some insane determination

Nah.

I saw him going mach 2 about 30 seconds prior so I guess he just launched himself up there KEK

My daily task today was to shoot down one aircraft in ground rb. On a normal day, that would be extremelly easy...
Except today was not a normal day. I have not seen a single enemy aircraft for like 6 battles before I just gave up and quit MeiStare

#

Every time I play this god damn game with a friend we end up having tons of flying shits to shoot down, but that one time I decide to play alone there are no planes

#

One battle one enemy rushed a point and captured it with an AA so I expected them to just, you know, do what people do and instantly respawn in a plane. Nope, they didn't do it. They just died of old age and spawned in another tank, like a normal human being with a working brain

China has just better tanks at the same BR of the worse ones 💀

hot hull
#

So when will you relapse?

eternal zenith
#

good games

gray thicket
#

also good tanks, western and eastern crossed

ruby rain
jaunty condor
#

Maybe not best.
But their mid tier is better than Russia's at the same BR pretty much.

#

It's basically just a better Russia.

gray thicket
jaunty condor
#

I'd still take a Leopard II over that any day.

gray thicket
#

fr?

jaunty condor
#

Absolutely.

#

I'd take a Leopard II over any Top-tier tank.
But China's Top-tier is leagues better than Russia's.

#

They actually have reverse gears 💀

gray thicket
#

yeah

#

I hate leopard IIs because they sometimes tank bs shots

#

or the thermals absorb the whole shot

jaunty condor
#

Grinding out China, they definitely do.
But it's no more than anything else in the game.

I agree

Yeah EC RB was soooo good

Not those shitty EC maps in RB

Horrible concept

serene birch

no i mean like

actual just 1 hr long matches

#

the EC good too but the old hour long maps

#

it'd make those EC styled maps we have now a lot better

sleek fractal
#

Or just bring back actual RB EC

#

1 hour long match with just one respawn makes no sense to me

#

And if you give more respawns its EC

#

Cause EC was usualy 1-2 hours long and you can drop out whenever you wanted

Its not even really a grind.

People that "grind" in Warthunder are clinicly insane anyway

The grind is horrible and no fun at all

hot hull
#

Yeah I gotta play war thunder for something thats limited time

#

I aint doing that

sleek fractal
#

? hmmmm

hot hull
#

I'll just use my money and buy it right away

sleek fractal
#

The event does itself basicly while just playing Air.

#

Nothing changes.

hot hull
#

For a limited time

sleek fractal
#

as if you dont play 2-3 hours within 2 days anyway

hot hull
#

Not war thunder at the very least

sleek fractal
#

Then i wouldnt even buy a coupon.

#

wasted money if you dont care to begin with

hot hull
#

Working 7 to 7 it's not very feasible regardless

#

Get home, make food, do something worthwhile, go to bed

sleek fractal
#

The fun part of playing the market is that you just invest once and got such a big gain that you dont need to invest ever again.

hot hull
#

I play war thunder more regularly on the weekend

sleek fractal
#

Cause if want to be lazy i just buy the F14 with spare GJC

#

Or sell one of my other Coupons for more GJC.

hot hull
#

That's good for you. But I don't got any space GJC around and I've got the disposable income to not really care about throwing the snail 25euro

sleek fractal
#

Same,but saving 25€ and using it on a better purpose is still better.

hot hull
#

Not that it would really matter in the long run

sleek fractal
#

it will especialy if you want someday a vehicle you missed and its like 300gjc

hot hull
#

That's though luck in that case

sleek fractal
#

Its not tough luck to want a 10 year old vehicle.

#

Most people that play Warthunder nowadays havent started like me nearly 12 years ago

#

And if you invested a new fancy car into the game like i did you get aware of your spending habits.

#

I rather let my money work instead of letting it sink into WT any further KekSkew

Which is definetly a lie

If It ever comes to mind that I want something I already don't have and it turns out to be 300gjc I'll just say "Thats expensive as fuck" and move on with my life

blissful aurora
#

The moment I think about using them, I know bad luck is about to happen

hot hull
#

If I get it when it comes out, I don't have to worry about that however

#

That's why I just buy the tomcat

#

cheap, easy and no sanity lost

sleek fractal
#

Cheap is depending on the perspective but i do understand your reasoning

hot hull
#

25 euro is not that much

For me, at least

For you and for me.But i get it for free,which is still cheaper than 25€

Adding more vehicles isn't making the game "better", so what will?

sleek fractal

remove Squadron points,make Free RP out of it

and you can spend the free RP on those vics

#

you will get every single update some shitty new vehicles with another shitty powercreep

eternal zenith

#

it includes Squadron battles

hollow pelican

#

Basicly make a Warbond shop for it.You earn Points every season in Squadron battles

#

And a rare vehicle like an M60AMBT costs like 2k points which you can gain with good rankings in 3 seasons

#

Vehicle instantly redeemed

#

Something like that

#

But WT doesnt want that shit

Gaijins concept is working so they dont improve it

sleek fractal

we had that discussion

sleek fractal

We already have seasons in SQB

eternal zenith
#

I mean the whole event BP situation

sleek fractal
#

You need to keep players hooked

#

for F2P it makes sense

#

For a full Tripple A title it doesnt make sense

#

You can play WT perfectly fine for free ESPECIALY if you abuse the market

eternal zenith
#

yeah the market... we saw how well that worked

#

the guy who played the market absolutely legally and fair got slapped by the cunts for some made up reason and his account held for ransom if he didn't pay 260$

sleek fractal

never heard of that guy

eternal zenith
#

literally 10s of thousands of GJN worth of vehicles locked with no proper reason given

might be a fairy tale but his follow up makes it pretty believable

#

Iirc theres a limit of 2999

#

But i could be wrong

eternal zenith
#

but wasn't that for CC and real money conversion?

sleek fractal
#

I dont know

#

And if he made 5k in a short amount of time some automatic system sure will flag him

eternal zenith
#

yeah it don't matter. doesn't change their reputation

eternal zenith
#

I guess they're scared their completely unbalanced market breaks down kek

hollow pelican
eternal zenith
#

less greed and more business sense

#

but mmo games are a rather short lived product so you only got a small window to extract value from it, which means customer opinion is less important than profit optimization

You get 3 weeks to get 10K mission score with Tank Destroyers lmao.

#

Super simple and you get plenty of time to get rank III with nations you don't have.

serene birch
#

i feel like these new challenges give you the same amount of time to do them as the old operation events did but youre only grinding for 1 vehicle instead of 3 lmao

jaunty condor
#

I personally didn't mind those, but they are definitely not as grindy as the old ones.

serene birch

eternal zenith
serene birch
#

i didnt mind them either but ill take whatever is easier

serene birch
#

fuck that

#

i hated those

#

its more user friendly for points overall rather than kills/assists/matches won/tonnage bombed

#

also 6 kills in 1 match

#

people will lesser skills and even handicaps are heavily benefiting from the 35k total

jaunty condor
#

Just play well, and the more points you get, the more you get from the modifier.

#

Yeah, it's grindy.

#

But it's so simple.
And you're basically grinding for pack vehicles and shit.

at the very least any high frequency trading would need to break even at 10% movement (which is a lot) and the snail would be able to skim that with every tx. All in all a bot would only serve to decrease the global supply of G$.
If there's issues with players building a coupon monopoly then that's probably only concerning them due to decreased trade volume - meaning less G$ being bought overall. If they want to get rid of botting then make coupons tradable once or x-amount of times. but that'd mean a decrease in trade volume and even more G$ stagnation

sleek fractal
#

Theres bots that trade skins around for a few gjc which snowball very fast in a lot of GJC.

#

Gjc are like crypto

#

They got no actuql worth

#

People just think they do

#

1 gjc is 1€

#

No inflation

#

Infinite amount

eternal zenith
#

every trade there's a loss in value

#

so if it's competing bots they will burn through a lot of G$, maybe the point is to inflate the market price by having lots of trades at high price but I don't see how that's going to be very profitable

sleek fractal
#

Just an example

sleek fractal
#

Usualy its just buy in bulk,wait a few days or even months,resell high

serene birch
#

ngl f-16 cockpit sexy

#

teehee i love this kill feed for how dumb it is

eternal zenith
# sleek fractal Theres no loss in value at all.Just always the % that gaijin takes and thats eas...

let's go with the 100 camo example. and give each a base value of 10c, which could be bought for 10gjn - first sale you gotta pay 2c in fees, so you gotta add that on to make a profit, can't sell it for less than 13c now. The prices rises while it looses value with each trade, realistically. after just one round of sales you'd have 8gjn in total supply with 2 being burned by the fees.

and each trade the global supply of gjn shrinks, which, unless resupplied, would cause the market to stagnate.

serene birch
#

idk i got like 80GJN for selling the AGS at 110

#

thats a p piss poor take from gaijin for a fake tank for a fake currency

#

LMAO

eternal zenith
#

oh wait. the min fees ain't 10c but 15% of that

#

that changes the numbers but don't matter

serene birch
#

whats really fucked up is gajin could potentially earn 0 dollars from it.

someone grinds an event and sells the vehicle? if that person has spent 0 dollars on this game gaijin are taking a cut of nothing except that persons hard earned time LOL

jaunty condor
#

I'm being watched.

serene birch
#

holy shit my moderna took a sturmtiger round to the UFP

sleek fractal
#

And gjn are infinite

#

They wont inflate

#

The players set the price

#

Theres no limited stock and Gaijin wont lose any money,they always gain money from it

#

Thats why it works kekl Thats why its easy to exploit if you get one vehicle,sell it high,buy cheap coupons from the next,sell those high again

Its snowballing

serene birch
#

granted in sim it is pretty mean

eternal zenith
#

there's no way to "mint" g$ as a player

#

which means there's no exploiting the system, only other players

#

house always wins

sleek fractal
#

I do not exploit someone that willingly buys my coupon

#

That probably got his GJN the same way

#

if you talk about inflation theres so many GJN around it should have the same worth as Yen kekw

eternal zenith
#

GJN can never inflate because it will always have to be bought

#

as I said if not for people buying more from the store they will only ever deflate in value due to the burn rates

eternal zenith
#

all the gjn in circulation is backed by player money one way or the other

sleek fractal
#

Most GJN come from Skin creators tbh

eternal zenith
#

what? do you get gjn without someone having to buy them if you create skins?

#

no idea about how skin creation works so idk

sleek fractal
eternal zenith
sleek fractal
#

if its one of the lesser sawn after you get GJN til a certain point

#

if its one of the expensive one and you pile up some amount you can get it payed out

#

Thing just is taxes etc

#

so most go for direct GJN

#

They buy Gold or Premium time with it usualy

#

inifnite GJN GE supply

eternal zenith
#

that implies people buying infinite skins

creator's skin being dropped via RNG still gives them a reward?

#

pretty cool

sleek fractal
#

Nowadays its way different if you consider how many creators there are that got their skins in crates

#

from 2020

#

So they actualy only get it from Keys being sold

#

Which is still a lot considering how many of these Skins float around.

HOLY SHIT the match maker fucking HAAAAAATES me

#

So I've been analyzing my network traffic and found some curious router CPU usage spikes. Traced it back to times I played WT and figured it's some rouge packages created by BOTH warthunder and eac. So my hardware is beefier than most with desktop grade CPU and 64gb ram for the wan node but even that almost got to a point were it had to reboot.

Anyone notice network issues while playing? I'm curious if this is a widespread and more common issue.

#

Still analyzing the game traffic and why it does this, maybe I do a detailed bug report

sleek fractal
#

But i get what you mean.EAC is fucky and thats why tanks render late or ghost shells happen

#

Thats the packages lost

#

Its an issue they prolly never get fixed

eternal zenith
#

I now went through 2 years of logs and traced it all back to the latest updates, mainly 13th march 2024 and more recent 19th june

#

were it gets really weird is that these issues affect my local network, one instance even interrupted part of my storage cluster, so I had to put game traffic (which is anyways going through a VPN to the server the game is running) through a VLAN to my PC. Checking the package size they vary greatly from the engine while EAC's are pretty uniform. I've read about some malicious software having similar properties so the schizo in me starts to think they run some shady data collection or even some sort of trojan

#

big fucking red flag, haven't seen this with any other online game so far

#

I don't pretend that the country of origin has nothing to do with my assumptions here. Maybe I'll try routing my traffic through a server in Kazakhstan and see if it changes behavior KEK

ruby rain
#

does that mean burn the Gajoon or na?

eternal zenith
#

I'm just being a paranoid schizo rn, if you don't have any issues no reason to worry

#

as overly complicated as my setup is I don't doubt I'm at fault for this behavior

serene birch
#

WT has done that to me before

#

it once installed itself on every single harddrive i had

#

one i never even used, i noticed one day it had like 80gb taken up and the only thing present was WT

eternal zenith
serene birch
#

good ol' wt being odd and sketchy :3

eternal zenith
#

now want to hear more super weird behavior?

serene birch
#

fuck yeah i love hearing gaijin games being sketch as shit

eternal zenith
#

I changed the routing through a VPN in hungary and that package issue completely stopped KekSkew

eager vault
eternal zenith
#

I did that on a hunch since RU - HU relations are considered "friendly" but what the fuck kekl

serene birch
eternal zenith
#

plus the traffic from the VM to my pc would only be the UI and controls, there shouldn't be any game traffic reaching my LAN

#

as I said most likely a config issue

serene birch
#

solution:

#

smash gaijin servers with hammer

eternal zenith
serene birch
#

i really should be grinding the BP but i cba :(

eager vault
eternal zenith
#

I'll probably just nuke the install and rebuild, tweak it some more

serene birch
#

or invest in a pleb router :3

#

or honestly

#

it could be a longshot but maybe linus might know LOL

#

could always try and get into contact with that madman

eternal zenith
#

I'm still looking into the logs to figure out why it acts like this, the networking looks solid and did was it was supposed to do it's just a question why traffic like that was created

#

and the VPN thing would point to a config issue too, I used mullvads connection instead of the config from the server provider so that's most likely the key issue

eager vault
#

Sophos firewall has a home version too, but that's heavy, but really powerful filtering.
I used untangle in the past too.

eternal zenith
#

Yeah it's a mikrotik build, only thing proper custom are the drivers for the fiber cards

#

also the firewall runs a dedicated hardware

eternal zenith
eager vault
# eternal zenith Yeah it's a mikrotik build, only thing proper custom are the drivers for the fib...

That should be fine then,
Is that the cloud router?
It would all be done on CPU, so it makes sense the more traffic you put across the more the CPU should pick up.

Have a look at the fastpath rules and have a close look at any other filtering and stuff you have setup

They have guides for this.
You want to make sure you are not inspecting or trying to look too closely at packets when you should just be forwarding it

eternal zenith
#

The reason this traffic showed up was due to the irregularity. All packages are buffered at all times but only unexpected events are filtered and stored for review besides the logs. This is all done by a different machine either so nothing to do with that router

try to sling a phoenix at close range

You do not do that.

Thats what your gun is for

Or the 2 IR missiles.

But it doesnt matter much cause til then you already got 2 or 3 kils and did your deeds

serene birch

Applies to plenty other Planes that got those near that range

and theyre not good on those at higher BRs

And if you make it dependend on a single IR missile .....

#

sometimes you are tho lmao if youve already got kills with your gun and SARHs/ARHs

and youre out of ammo

not J

serene birch

the P is the export J

sleek fractal

Also the Yasser will slap

As if i care,i already think the Aim9H is horrible

serene birch
#

P-1/2/4 is different

#

9H has better flare resistance as its got a smaller vision cone

#

way longer range

sleek fractal
#

Like this discussion is rather useless

#

The plane isnt bad simply because of the 9P

serene birch
#

im saying its a sidegrade not that the plane is bad

#

do you understand what a sidegrade is

sleek fractal
#

i will prefer it over the actual one because of the Yasser

serene birch
#

the sherman with the 105 howitzer isnt bad because the gun is technically worse, its just an option thats just as good at its own thing making it a sidegrade

#

this is what i said about this f-14

its a sidegrade
