[glad badger]

second one was much cleaner

[proper stag]

what yall think of the stock mbts added to 9.0 so far

any real impact ?

imo the mbts are useless cause of being stock and spaa are only really useful

[spark spindle]

I bought a rental T-80UD from the bp and haven't touched the free suffering mbt more than once.
You are not even given repairs. What a joke. The SPAA is nice tho.

[proper stag]

yeah no repairs seems like it's basically useless

even for their idea of making prem players have more to use if you have no knowledge of where to shoot with heatfs against tanks with era it's practically useless

[spark spindle]

Yooooo
I just wanted some boosters but hell yeahh

[sleek fractal]

1 mil SL booster xD

[spark spindle]

Nah, I got the vehicle

[sleek fractal]

Oh well also good

Its the long gun one

The bp one with the short barrel aint available

Also fun vehicle

[glad badger]

am a bit late but i finally got it

[mellow zealot]

wish i got this instead of this weird 2.3 plane i got lol

[gray thicket]

that thing is op 🥹

[sleek fractal]

its not weird its a fun rare french plen

[mellow zealot]

it doesnt seem bad and it seems like a good GRB ground pounder but its a very low BR and i've basically grinded all of that lol

i like playing more towards those BRs like the ebr

[sleek fractal]

yeah ok i get that

[mellow zealot]

would've preferred it but i'm not hating really

it's interesting

[sleek fractal]

atm im waiting for hatemail cause i told that "russian bias" dude that france has the highest stats in the game atm and russia is like lower end xD

https://youtu.be/-HaYxAX2lNc?si=HXbgUTA4geAz5Yqg

[fallen sparrow]

Me when Jumbo cant pen Tiger 2

Im so cooked

[short bolt]

tiger 2 is like a whole br higher but it is the average heavy tank in a downtier/heavy tank in a uptier

moment

[short bolt]

i mean france is exclusively played by min/maxxing psychos

and most of them are good players

since most of their tanks are lightly armored new players dont do well with them

[sleek fractal]

If russia was op and biased,everyone would perform good with it,which is not the case

And most good players,play everything in a mix

Cause they got most stuff unlocked

Also everything is "lightly armored" except russians from 9.3 upwards

Russians got that little failsafe of having armor and being able to tank most mistakes

And people still perform shit

Most new players start with germany,were at the point that these players reached top tier US and ruin that,cant wait til they start with Russia and ruin that

[fallen sparrow]

I used to be afraid of Tiger 2

Now they are pretty easy target

Still bitch to fight but the Panther G and II are way worse to fight imo

Koelian is actually most annoying to fight imo

[boreal goblet]

The pen buff is still op

[short bolt]

the great thing about panther II and koelian is that they are both ultra rare (so is 105mm tiger 2)

[short bolt]

the reason why russia performs worse statistically is because they simply have the worse players

since most of their tanks are beginner friendly up until 12.0 or something

this in turn causes them to just press w and left click which works till they face a good player that punishes them

every country except russia has some sort of weak br range before like 11.7 or something

[fallen sparrow]

Everytime I see it

I will focus on it before any other vehicles

[boreal goblet]

Funny how it surpasses 35mm SPAA in top tier at least it isnt in every team like a few weeks back.

[sleek fractal]

US has the worst players

Russia is middleground throughout everything

Despit it being the 3rd nation to arrive ingame,US and Germany being the first 2

Russia is not beginner friendly at all with the bad guns at the start,then good guns and long reload with no armor and then armor but no mobility where mobility matters

[sleek fractal]

Russian bias statement was fine when the is4m fought against Tiger 10,5 but now its just dumb if theres overall better Nations.The autoloader buff was unnecessary though.

[hollow pelican]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvAm82Foc04

[sleek fractal]

That would be peak for Germany

[hollow pelican]

LMAO German tech tree snubbing a neat polish tank (again)

[sleek fractal]

Next theres Swiss tanks

I wonder what we get aside the 3 obvious ones

[fallen sparrow]

I am hella sure

It has railgun

[short bolt]

this man never killed a person btw

[short bolt]

germany has the worst low to mid tier players, like not even close

russians also have ok guns throughout all br ranges though not as potent as german ones thats for sure

[cold lichen]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BvcCbrW9so

@gray thicket china B-29

[mellow zealot]

45mm is one of the best guns early on, 76 is quite good especially with filler and 85 is really good
wdym
they're just shit at light tanks until bmp2+

btw how do you play the mig-21-f13 that thing is so weird to me

the mig19 is good fun but i cant figure out the f13

[cold lichen]

Shitty F-104 basically

[mellow zealot]

ye but atleast with that you have a gun you can spam

precision strikes arent fun in super fast fights

[gray thicket]

ah yes improved

🤑🤑

[sleek fractal]

You dont

[mellow zealot]

gambling made me broke 💔

[mellow zealot]

i'm realizing that

the mig19 is so much more fun and interesting

just one more

[hollow pelican]

🫥

[sleek fractal]

It was peak back then,Sabre vs Mig15bis

I want those times back

[mellow zealot]

i think i got my first jet around 2020 tbh

i did have mig15bis and sabre battles that was always interesting

[sleek fractal]

2013 was when they introduced late ww2 jets via Pony event

Leopard 1 vs T10M,back then it was still named Is8

Good times

Fucking leopard 1 was OP for a long time

[ruby rain]

how long until BMPT gets put into its actual br or nerfed properly?

[sleek fractal]

Already happened

It was nerfed twice and put to 10.7

2s36 is still at 10.3

That piece of op shit

[ruby rain]

stupid gagoon

anyway

[sleek fractal]

They should make it go boom again if you hit the missiles

But they wontv

[mellow zealot]

nerfed (made it harder to kill)

gg

they should put it at like 12 cuz i dont play that br

[fallen sparrow]

THATS HOW EXPENSIVE A HIGH TIER VEHICLE IS????

https://tenor.com/view/walter-white-falling-fast-gif-18043850

[mellow zealot]

something like that

[sleek fractal]

nah

[boreal goblet]

Still can't properly kill that thing at range

[sleek fractal]

Its a T-72 ... treat it like one

Also dont do as if you dont know their their shitty armor quirks

The BVM has it since forever with its additional armor packages

Should they nerf it ? Maybe. Will they do it? No obviously not

[fallen sparrow]

Escape 7.0 BMPT

Just to fight 10.7 BMPT

Life is great

[lilac grove]

the warthunder curse is taking hold in me after nearly 5 years of not playing

help

[cold lichen]

Don't...

Unless you played it to enjoy the mechanics of the game, I wouldn't

[lilac grove]

but france looks so succelant now. it was being announced when i stopped playing back then

holy fuck that's 9 years ago not 5

[mellow zealot]

France is kinda shit til 5.0 then it's fun for a bit

Idk about top tier but 8.0 is meh and 7.7 can be fun but uptiers aren't

I'll have some guy come in and say statistically France is the best ir whatever

Those who don't know fun isn't winrate

[lilac grove]

is russia still made of stalinium?

[mellow zealot]

They have weird shot trap and angled shit but realistically not really

The ca Lorraine is funny and the foch can be good even in an uptier depending on the map

[lilac grove]

just got into a battle and i still think this is game is a marvel

really impressive how it looks and plays

rank 1 is also so wonky lmao

[sleek fractal]

Winning is fun

France is great

[sleek fractal]

Yep thats their trait

Theres better vehicles in every regard,except reload and armor,except you got an ace crew on US tank then they reload faster

But yeah russia 9.7+ is still Stalinium

Like if you suck with france 7.7 you suck hard balls

Great mobility,great armor,great guns and i didnt even post premium/event 7.7 tanks from france

So KenX sucks Ballz

With numbers and statistics i can prove a fact,unlike someone malding here being like "nuh uhhh i dont have a single fact to back my claims up"

[spark spindle]

France at 3.7 is great, 5.3 is fun, 7.0 is amazing, 7.7 is the peak and 8.7 is what I grind rn.

[short bolt]

fr*nch made some banger tanks ngl

[cold lichen]

Its pretty good, though the armor is semi-lacking, I've blocked a few 122 shots in the AMX-50 with the 100mm but beyond that every time I've faced a french 7.7 tank, its usually a one shot, though I could have been quite lucky

[sleek fractal]

If you got the event vehicles it just gets better

Somua is premium,also great

My amx 50 TO is fo sale

I didnt redeem it cause its quite good and now going towards 200gjn

2nd surblinde

It will never be in SL crates cause BP vehicle

Oh fuck

[mellow zealot]

13-90 is dogshit

aml 90 is dogshit

[sleek fractal]

Also 130mm Leopard

Just because you cant play it,it aint dogshit

[mellow zealot]

both unstable platforms with mediocre ammo cuz the heat just doenst do shit 9/10 times

i had nukes with the lorraine both of those were just pathetic

[sleek fractal]

The only absolut dogshit vehicle is the chinese m41

[mellow zealot]

the ammo just doesnt work

[sleek fractal]

Heatfs is great

[mellow zealot]

the 90mm heat is shit on all vehicles anyway

glorified 85mm

[short bolt]

just no

[sleek fractal]

It seems to me you guys dont know how to overpressure with heat

[mellow zealot]

those who overpressure m48s

[short bolt]

yeah let me overpressure a is3

[mellow zealot]

i especially love overpressuring t-62s in full uptiers

on my unstable platform

[sleek fractal]

If you cant kill an is3 frontaly with heat

[mellow zealot]

shits so ass i've gotten killed by shrapnel

[sleek fractal]

Og boi

[mellow zealot]

bull

dont hit the pike

nvm

[short bolt]

i have shot 3 times with heatfs in to is 3 to not even tickle its gunner and then one shot him

[mellow zealot]

sometimes the frontal track armour blocks it tbh

[sleek fractal]

You issue

Literaly

[short bolt]

nah i dont think it is

[sleek fractal]

https://tenor.com/view/lionking-simba-baby-simba-throw-off-throw-from-cliff-gif-4938582

[short bolt]

since most shots were close to the same spot

[mellow zealot]

to further explain how dogshit the 90mm heat is i hit a 2s19 in the autoloader, all crew and still didnt get taken out and then it fired on the moved and killed me

[sleek fractal]

Get out

[mellow zealot]

no overpressure somehow

90mm heat is dogshit

105 on the other hand overpressures mice

[short bolt]

put me on amx m4

coach

i will show you my skill issue

[sleek fractal]

I would shoot that with HE

[mellow zealot]

why would i shoot it with 90mm HE

for even worse results

either way it should've taken out his ammo

"autoloader"

[sleek fractal]

I got better things to do

I think its because i dont care,i just play and have fun,if you focus on negative shit your full off it.Its just a game Just because you didnt pen an Is3 doesnt mean others cant.Just play what suits you,if France aint your then it is like that.

Also multitasking

Discord send the picture

they dont even stop normal Heat

[sleek fractal]

Im a renovation technician xD

i have to do EVERYTHING

[crude ruin]

tf is that

soft hands job

[sleek fractal]

im specialised in renovating water damages

i work with insurances

we drill in floors etc and get the water out of the insulating layer

so no mold will develop

Wooden houses or dry wall houses are easy to deal with cause they mold very fast and all you do is get the moldy parts out and replace it

you have to know everything about every kind of housing and material and how to deal with it

if i fuck up i wont get contracts from the insurance anymore

Money is good and they always pay.

[crude ruin]

i do roofs in summer

[sleek fractal]

nah i dont do roofing

i can do it,cause i learned it when i worked 8 years as a Bricklayer but nah#

fuck that

Work smart not hard

And thats why im so into statistics

You can work with statistics and gamble a bit,you make big buck

my gamble paid off during Corona and after when i switched Jobs

[ruby rain]

God bless

[sleek fractal]

i told my boss back then to buy materials like crazy and he told me im an idiot xD

Then i explained him what will happen

LOCKDOWN xD

Material shortages

we were able to work the full time during Corona

Customers happy,we happy,big bling bling

That wasnt hard to predict

now we wait for gaijin to nerf the BMPT

Thats hard to predict

[crude ruin]

my boah

roofs pay really good in germany

for me at last

[sleek fractal]

i know

i live here

i am german

But its shit work in hot ass heat

[ruby rain]

bc not working makes you qay and retarded

[fallen sparrow]

Me again

When HEAT FS does ABSOLUTELY SHITS

[fallen sparrow]

Keep it

Sells for 2000

[sleek fractal]

Cause that nepali guy cant do my job and isurance knows they cant hire the cheap ones otherwise it will cost them more due to increased damages and fraud xD

[sleek fractal]

easily cause its french and like the surblinde

[sleek fractal]

its like APCR

its a lolpen

you just have to make your shot count

when you hit ammo and it goes red and doesnt explode,then im with you thats bullshit

im min maxing work force

i take the full money,i pay 2 nepali guys 1/3 of it

[fallen sparrow]

I swear im not crazy when this happened

I was so flabbergasted when I saw a HEATFS exploded at the rear of the Tiger 2 turret and ammo just yellow

[sleek fractal]

yeah that shit happens and is dumb

[fallen sparrow]

I just hate how stupidly inconsistent HEATFS is

but it's the only chance that I can front pen a Maus so

oher option is yeh... APCR but uh

Shell Shattered

[sleek fractal]

APCR is just for flat surfaces

i remember APCR stock grinds

HEAT is the lesser evil

[fallen sparrow]

that thing irl was designed for angled surface

[sleek fractal]

that does not work

[fallen sparrow]

in WT if it pen at surface that's not flat

it shattered like most of the time

its stupid

[sleek fractal]

dont tell me shit xD

works as intended

[fallen sparrow]

damn

so

it's just suck

in WT

[sleek fractal]

it does

its not as bad as it was but its still horrible

its very good in very few situations

like vs a KV1

thats it xD

[fallen sparrow]

I remember when 105mm HEATS does not go through KV1

and I was so baffled

like I shot it front flat face, turret cheek, side, rear

it does not go through and almost makes me flip my shit

[sleek fractal]

lemme check if it was due to the chain links on the turret xD

they fixed a lot on the armor though,just like 90mm heatfs or even normal smaller heat being able to pen the IS3 tracks and armor in the front

nah works great

and APCR pens the Tiger 2 turret perfectly too

even has good post damage

you can overpressure it with HESH even

hit it here

the angled part of the turret

will blow up the whole inside of it

i aint paying for them

[short bolt]

you cant even buy the 38 cm sturmmörser which is crazy you need to find someone that is willing to sell

[sleek fractal]

its not sellable

It was an anniversary event tank

directly redeemed,no coupons

[short bolt]

fuck me its even worse than i thought

[sleek fractal]

already been nearly 4 years

i hope you didnt miss these

[short bolt]

i did because i didnt care if i am going to be honest

[sleek fractal]

yeah ok relatable

their all shit

but still fun stuff

[short bolt]

like you cant force me to play anything except chamond

all of them are worse than 1.0 reserves

[sleek fractal]

ah yes

the classic

same as the 38cm

that was 2024

More high end tanks

new Leopard 2 variants

T-15

yes that T-15

[short bolt]

bro why do these guys think they will have data on actual classified tanks and airplanes

[sleek fractal]

they dont

everything after 10.3 is made up values

except for the Manuals you can acquire legaly

[short bolt]

good thing i dont play top tier that much

[sleek fractal]

you can legaly buy an Eurofighter manual which explains in detail how the engines work

And Gaijin still wont take it as source

"Nato classified"

they cant buy it outside Nato countries

thats why

[short bolt]

or they just dont care?

[sleek fractal]

And thats why im saying French bias is very real,they buffed the MICA 3 times

it was already the best missile when Fox 3 came out

they buffed em 3 times

[sleek fractal]

Rafale gets an ASA Radar that was developed ONLY FOR GERMAN USE

and is currently and was always used only by us germans

Its for the Eurofighter

they still slap it on French and British Rafale ingame

Aside that,since im working partly for Gaijin as Twitch moderator,everyone i can talk to is French

[short bolt]

french doing their best

ruinning everything😔

[sleek fractal]

You can openly read bug report tickets

First we had the russian bias wave

Then we had that chinese dude faking all values which never got reverted

Then France got some love

around 2023

well see what comes next

[short bolt]

and british got shot dead in bronx

[sleek fractal]

Yeah thanks to the Chally 2 leaks

they cant touch em

every buff can lead to some annoyances that the GOV will come and say "you used leaked docs"

Recently challengers got 300 more HP

Didnt do much to their engines but its something

[short bolt]

i mean chally hull down is pretty good

[sleek fractal]

"recently"

5 months ago

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nxVkK3FEVc

oh ok wasnt 300

was just 100

the 2E has 1500 already

thats why i though it was 300

[short bolt]

british mains were celebrating i think

[sleek fractal]

They deserve more love

They do not deserve Canadian Leopards xD

[short bolt]

guys have seen nothing more nerf that 100 hp was enough to celebrate

dont germany already have 2a4m can?

[sleek fractal]

Yep

And the C2A1

[short bolt]

and the anime one

[sleek fractal]

yeah we ignore the Anime

fuck that

Do you know about Strike Witches ?

[short bolt]

no

[sleek fractal]

Good

its little girls

Warthunder had a collab with questionable skins

mini skirts and panty shots of little girls on your planes

Thats why we dont talk anime in Warthunder

[short bolt]

was it before gaijin was acquired or after

because i think it was originally a japanese company

or so i have heard

but yeah kinda disgusting they added shit like that

[sleek fractal]

thats one of the tamer ones

[short bolt]

not good

[sleek fractal]

that stuff is NOW DMM exclusive

you can link your Account to DMM but it locks you out of the Gaijin Market

What nukes does to a country

[short bolt]

technically this is also americas fault

tfw when i drop a nuke on to a city, which will have cascading effects in the future

well they couldve also not dropped a nuke on civilians

since nukes were originally meant for germany i wonder what would happen to germany if it did happen

you can change the turret to all sorts of fun stuff

Its BMPT on T-14 basicly

[ruby rain]

so a BMPT but even more OP?

[sleek fractal]

yep

thats why i think the BMPT aint so bad xD

Cause there is worse

they teased that with the new years picture

[copper laurel]

arent there still 2 rounds that americans are missing

right now its m829a2

and i think irl they have the a4

[ruby rain]

Buddy, there is always something worse. Hence why you don't need to just accept everything bad

[fallen sparrow]

@sleek fractal wait till they add Kor tree

[sleek fractal]

BMPT is just another T-72

[copper laurel]

iirc m829A3 should frontpen the t-72

[sleek fractal]

Which it does

[fallen sparrow]

The NK tank is very cursed

[sleek fractal]

but you wont see it at that BR

[ruby rain]

What br do you think BMPT should be at?

[sleek fractal]

at least 11.0

10.7 is to low

11.3 is to high

[copper laurel]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kG8bBwjdtac

[ruby rain]

why too high?

[copper laurel]

we are yet to get this round ingame

[short bolt]

lowkey drop it to 10.3 or even 9.3 but make its atgm killspots

[sleek fractal]

cause then you get the funny 12.3 and everything is just way better

yeah or leave it at 10.3 or 10.7 and make it go boom again when a 7mm mg hits you

which is fair and realistic

[ruby rain]

it is

Maybe Brit

But German and stuff kinda sometimes

This gotta be

The worst French tank I tried to play

Its so stupid

[rain lily]

Well yea, it's France, just turn your brain off and go with it

[sleek fractal]

Its ok,theres just better ptions overall

Eurofighter aint bad but why take it wgen the Rafales are OP

[boreal goblet]

The Jaguar 2 is pretty much sitting at 9.0 because of the TOWs huh....

Im sure glad I researched the TOW Wiesel beforehand.

[sleek fractal]

Its really not that good

[mellow zealot]

9.3 t-64 without that reload buff was shit but now its crazy

grinded 10k tank in 2 matches lmao

anyway... that's both coupons (we dont talk about ships)

[mellow zealot]

okay maybe not shit but it had no real advantages over say the t72

essentially a light tank

[sleek fractal]

Slow turret turn rate always made me hate the T-64

That reload buff is dumb anyway

Now Leopards need the 5sec reload Ace crew buff too

I know a dude that reloads the breach in around 4.2 seconds for at least 10 shots

Idiot (me) on Cromwell

I barely fit inside

I did fit in the Tiger 2 they have in Munster through the driver emergency hatch but i couldnt get inside properly cause i was to tall and you gotta do a twist to get in

Your usualy not allowed to touch or go inside

We had a personal guide private tour

[sleek fractal]

@short bolt this Sturmmörser is still availabe

[jaunty night]

They need to make manual loading slower when going through rough terrain and so on

Even the gunners station feels like a rollercoaster when its actually bumpy

british tanks have everything you want from a tank but they have like one flaw that makes them garbage

like why can it move only -3km/h

[fallen sparrow]

British tank

The only thing on my mind I can think of that rival the Russian reversed speed

[short bolt]

Panthers dont even have a reverse gear. Have you seen any panther reverse? ME NEITHER

[spark spindle]

Panther II

[sleek fractal]

I did,it was Grandpa plowing snow

Dude was chill

Despite him having all the guns and being a former Nazi

[ruby rain]

God forbid a fella has nice things

[sleek fractal]

That was in 2015 iirc

[ruby rain]

if you want a british tank with good reverse speed, try uhhh the Archer

[sleek fractal]

Reverse gun brrrrr

[ruby rain]

its fuckin shit

he also gave fury more than 5

[fallen sparrow]

Tbh

At lower BR the French ARL might do it bit better for some reasons

But this is funny

It eats through Ferdinand without problems

Tru

ARL turret armor kinda sucks

Anything w 100 pen can go through

[short bolt]

🗣️ ARL mentioned 🇫🇷🏳️ what the fuck is armor 🥖

[fallen sparrow]

1st one sucks

2nd one front armor is good

Turret armor is not gpod

[short bolt]

yeah but no one plays it so they always shoot at your hull

[fallen sparrow]

I play it as a very very slow tank destroyer

Which kinda defeats its classification

But I have to say being able to pen 240mm armor at 5.7 is funny

[short bolt]

5.3*

[fallen sparrow]

Tru

Being able to pen the front face of the Tiger 2 at 5.3 gives me uh

Euphoric feeling

[short bolt]

I use this badboy as a medium tank with insane firepower. It has decent mobility, so I just get in to a spot that I can poke out and shoot. Since it is a french tank most people underestimate it, their mistake tbh

[sleek fractal]

ARL posting reminds me of a very old clip

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VqgT901F1tE

4 years

not so very old xD

complete coincedence that this dude was in a funclan from us

[fallen sparrow]

I use it to kick Tiger's ass lol

and a middle finger to IS

[fallen sparrow]

How the hell do you use APDS

Shit barely has any post pen effect

And how can I memorize like 10000 different tank ammo spot to use this

[silent mirage]

https://tenor.com/view/got-real-war-thunder-gif-27568709

[fallen sparrow]

I remember getting detonated and the xray view shows me no ammo was hit

[boreal goblet]

That was how it was classified when it first came out though

[short bolt]

was it even possible for you guys to pen each other

[short bolt]

as god intended

[sleek fractal]

nope,not frontaly but Gaijin was like now the playtime is over

[glad badger]

never said anything bad once within the last week, helping some fella out figure his tank and i'm slapped with this

i did call someone a nonce because they admitted to talking to a minor on warthunder tho.

[copper laurel]

[short bolt]

[sleek fractal]

[glad badger]

ikr

apparently calling someone a nonce is slappable

[sleek fractal]

just as when you tell the russians in chat that you dont speak french

they dont like their language called French

[mellow zealot]

i've gotten banned for simple insults lol it all just depends on whether yo uget reported or not

i've gotten someone banned for specifically calling someone a bastard

[ruby rain]

It's incredible that I didn't get banned

[fallen sparrow]

I dont even use chat

Germany main are blind anyway

They cant see chat

[mellow zealot]

still living down my 90 day ban which was given for reasons unknown

[sleek fractal]

Reports only get viewed if you input a text in the report and even then its luck based,usualy the system deals with em

all the European mods are harsh

the Russian ones laugh their ass off mostly and let it slide

you wont be suprised how many TSS (Tournament service) reports we get cause the big Esports Teams throw slurs around

or some team is named SSAdolf or some shit

or this classic

[mellow zealot]

i think there are more people ironically called or "liking" epstein than "ssadolf" lets be real

half the mfs with "GITLER88" as their name

surprisingly a lot of them are russian

[sleek fractal]

i wrote teams,as in Teams for Tournaments

As you wrote the users themself got "smarter" names which the System wont pick up. If you report them they get that fancy "RenamedUser" name

its just sad they can rename themself for free after that

Gaijin should take that out and make them pay GE as usual for a name change.

Russians like their fancy Team names

I dont even know what they expect will happen

[short bolt]

its just mainly children they wanna be "cool and edgy"

[sleek fractal]

it gets funnier and funnier

Gamma as a Discord Server is stricter than Gaijins Server

One is fanstuff,the other a world wide known corporate

[ruby rain]

@sleek fractal did Falcon get nerfed?

[sleek fractal]

not as far as i know

cant find anything regarding it recently

[fallen sparrow]

I swear I was like

Helicopter, it couldnt be that bad

Until I have to fight a dude who can just fly up, shoot rocket, and then fly down to hide behind building

dude was alive for about 20 seconds btw

if anyone wants to watch it

[short bolt]

pzh2000 my favourite spaa in germany tech tress

[fluid trout]

also I don't know what's goin on, I've been having problems with war thunder chat and DMs, where I can't DM anyone and certain messages just literally don't come through, for example that match above, you can see my client's chat log but the server replay has others typing too, so if anyone knows a fix, let me know.

[fluid trout]

I use the italian one

[short bolt]

it is so annoying that it is premium

italy couldve used pzh2000 in regular tech tree it wouldve made italy more attractive for people to grind

[fallen sparrow]

Me when I see Panzerhaubitze 2000 looking at me while im in the open (I am so cooked)

[gray thicket]

gunpod is hella fun

limited dogfight capabilities but i js reverse and brrr

[sleek fractal]

Its enemy team chat

Its funny that you can read that msg via replay

also your ingame chat was at 8 Minutes and your screen now was from 12 minutes

like its hard to check which messages didnt come through

that one didnt

which is weird

[fluid trout]

them and elena-mi didn't, grabbing clip atm

trying to anyways

[sleek fractal]

either its server hiccups as usual or they blacklisted or blocked you lol

[fluid trout]

considering we've never played before, i don't know why they'd do that.

and the odds of it being 2 people in one match? unlikely

[sleek fractal]

Some people block people for using chat

instead of disabling chat

[fluid trout]

and the past couple weeks i've been unable to DM

just says im not connected, but in game chat will work fine

[sleek fractal]

Chat servers fucked

You should write the support and ask

Cause that aint normal

[fluid trout]

i tried fucking with some settings on internet adaptor, and running WT as admin. we'll see if it fixes it

[sleek fractal]

well ive never seen something like that before xD

Just the "i didnt write bad shit in chat and got banned for a year" card

[fluid trout]

it could also just be my ISP, it's a really weird set up that I can't change at all. no port forwarding, no real meaningful router changes

[sleek fractal]

Supporter shows me ingame chat ..... 20 times trying to spell the n word

[sleek fractal]

dont think so

if it was your isp it would affect everything

not just chat server

thers log in server,game server and chat server

if it was your isp you would have issues with the game overall and logging in too

Sometimes Login server goes down,then everyone can still play that is logged in but nobody else can log in

[fluid trout]

IDK man ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[sleek fractal]

Thats why i mean,write support

If you care that is

bust be something with their server

then again,ive seen no reports recently or something like your case ever

[fluid trout]

any way to grab client chat logs after a match has ended, or is it gone once you move past the results screen?

[sleek fractal]

You got a very new issue xD

nah theres just the replays

they contain basicly everything

[fluid trout]

I wonder if the client replay will have the chat log difference showing

since server shows all chats

will check once im done with this match

[sleek fractal]

that might be possible

smart move

[fluid trout]

@sleek fractal 12:37 message from elena missing

[sleek fractal]

yep thats good

or not

[sleek fractal]

At least if you care you can send support both and they can look into it

[fluid trout]

i'll see if it happens again, hopefully whatever I changed fixes it

[fallen sparrow]

Me ARL when the round they shot ricochet off of my front hull and into the turret

Of course it had to be a 122

[fluid trout]

Like… who calls a 279 a rat? Things big as fuck. You’re the one hiding behind some concealment like a little rat, rooikat.

[hollow pelican]

Don't put too much thought into it hes trying to ragebait you

[boreal goblet]

War Thunder players ragebaiting? Never.

[ruby rain]

Im sure just using the 279 annoys people bad enough

[short bolt]

Yeah that thing is so annoying to deal with

Unless you have apfsds

[spark spindle]

I'd rather see that than 30mm+ autocannon SPAAs

[mellow zealot]

the amount of times i have penned it and gotten driver loader is truly infuriating

[gray thicket]

hmm

i got hopes for this one

🤑

[sleek fractal]

Mig25 ?

Depends on if it will be available along the road or not

[gray thicket]

yes

[gray thicket]

agreed

[sleek fractal]

i have high hopes too since its a christmas event

plenty of available coupons

[gray thicket]

exactly

[sleek fractal]

dude turned ägyptian xD

[mellow zealot]

he's right tbh

[mellow zealot]

already up? damn that was kinda worth it compared to prev events

[gray thicket]

worth it

i dreamed about flying the f14 today lmao

might get that

must've been a sign

[ruby rain]

test flew it
ripped off both wings
enough for me

[gray thicket]

real

ion see myself using it

prefer jh7 with pl5eII

🤑

[mellow zealot]

well yea ur supposed to climb :p

many rus planes at that br tend to rip wings at low alt tbh

funny how the block is at around the same price as the efv

but that mig25 is looking good

worth grinding for once

[ruby rain]

it was at like 13km

[mellow zealot]

huh

[gray thicket]

you gotta call @south shard for that

I wish those forum nerds proved m735 data wrong

Its crazy that they still havent reverted it

[ruby rain]

What if sim mode was multi crew?

[short bolt]

average wt player is genuinely not smart enough to multi crew it would be a fun april 1st event but other than that

plus you need to have 3 friends minimum to play it

and also driver duty is not that fun lemme tell you

Not possible server structure wise

Multicrew is retarded anyway

Just because of the retarded community

I wouldnt want a one death leaver in my tank

[ruby rain]

@sleek fractal they did it

[short bolt]

@sleek fractal

[sleek fractal]

Is that Jodo?

[short bolt]

it Jodo his nickname or something?

[sleek fractal]

You dont know who the clip is from?

Lemme check

Its not Jodo

I dont know this guy

[short bolt]

no bpa jon

[sleek fractal]

Ahhhg

Its jon

[short bolt]

he literally casts the wtcs

[sleek fractal]

He looked familiar

Yes i know him

[short bolt]

i remember dropping my first nuke after watching his video

his videos are a blessing to people that dont have 10k hours in this game

[sleek fractal]

Now we wait

I mean,yeah damage sucks

But its lolpen

You just need to hit right

[short bolt]

the issue is he did hit the same spot and the first two did nothing and the last nuked him

[sleek fractal]

Yeah it didnt hit the ammo

[short bolt]

overall it isnt bad but sometimes it just does this

[sleek fractal]

He said Heat broken

[short bolt]

in a good way or bad

[sleek fractal]

Bad

90mm EBR is 7.7 right ?

[short bolt]

yeah

[sleek fractal]

Only has heat and he

I like the long gun more

[short bolt]

the clip is from the surbaisse one

it has two of the weirdest wt matches on his channel

[sleek fractal]

Bmpt getting darts then

[ruby rain]

jfc

[short bolt]

he also claimed it wont go up in br

[ruby rain]

who said it?

[short bolt]

the poster

[sleek fractal]

It would be balanced IF it blew up by simple 7mm machinegun hits as it used to

And if DM23 could pen the side armor

[spark spindle]

Nice, time to grind a bit further then

[short bolt]

[sleek fractal]

https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/jJvEidSXFvn6

Heat dmg bug

Every Heat / FS has the issue

didnt know it was that bad

[short bolt]

I knew something was off

[sleek fractal]

Welp,it is what it is

Not as bad as every ammo penetrating you when you drive forward bug but still bad

[short bolt]

or the he ignoring armor

[stray bane]

guess they got enough credit card swipes

[sleek fractal]

thats what i ment

even a 7,92 was able to pen a maus

as long as it was moving,it died

no matter what

[short bolt]

wasnt it about he somehow ignoring armor if it hits a wall

[sleek fractal]

no

[short bolt]

or did i misunderstood

[sleek fractal]

That was something else

[short bolt]

oh...

[sleek fractal]

Theres so many bugs xD

[short bolt]

yeah

[sleek fractal]

The you move,armor gets ignored was 2 updates ago

they fixed it within a day and a week later it reappeared

It was worse before,cause whatever you fired penetrated the enemy while it was moving

but i cant find the initial report rn,also i dont think i can post the videos for reasons

[sleek fractal]

Also me posting the video you send got quite a reaction.They looking into the issue still.

CC´s be like

[fallen sparrow]

me when turning off brain and coelian

is the California good?

[sleek fractal]

its not bad,its a TD so you know what its drawbacks are

[short bolt]

pleasure serving the community it was a publicly available video btw

[fallen sparrow]

huh

I just ate an entire Maus main gun on a M50

and nothing damaged

huh

I mean Im not complaining cuz I should have been completely evaporated from this realm

but its weird that it happened

[sleek fractal]

Yeah but as if Gaijin checks CC Content

They dont

[mellow zealot]

This thing is deceptive cuz you think it'd have armour but any sneeze pens you but the gun is really good and you're fast as fucj

Play it as a light tank

I forgot whether it can look lft-right well

[mellow zealot]

Called it

[fallen sparrow]

To be fair

So fair I grow to realize if I am either not Soviet or German

My tank will always get front pen

[sleek fractal]

Nah you just said 90mm sucks

Which is fair

105mm also sucks,trade off is that its lolpen

Also its an issue with the recent update,as usual after a big patch

[cold lichen]

For the Conqueror's APDS being 6.37kg, it doesnt feel... like 6.37kg

[sleek fractal]

At least i believe you now that its shit due to a problem

[mellow zealot]

SHELL SHATTERED

[mellow zealot]

the difference was 90mm felt like it did nothing and 105 atleast felt like it did damage

i didnt use 105 that much before so i couldnt compare it

[cold lichen]

NON-PENETRATION

[fallen sparrow]

me when shell shattered on a thing that has no armor

[sleek fractal]

Try the Kürassier

I play it later to see how inconsistent it is now

[mellow zealot]

Ive had a shell shattered on a bmp2 with the conq genuinely its so shit

Caernarvon is way more consistent

Also both can get LFP by gepard lol

[mellow zealot]

The what

[sleek fractal]

Sk-105

[ruby rain]

@sleek fractal regarding BMPT br raise

[short bolt]

Damn sav is back on sale I was just teaching the game to my friend

[sleek fractal]

That could be fun

[ruby rain]

It does seem that a veh with autocannons, ATGMs and a modern hull can't be fixed by changing its br, because it can attack both the strengths and weaknesses of modern MBTs and is tough to kill.

It has to be nerfed.

[sleek fractal]

All they had to do was keeping the blowup via ammo

Then 10.3 would have been fine cause a 7mm can blow it up

[ruby rain]

meanwhile in other vehs, you shoot its missile -> blows up

[sleek fractal]

Exactly

Thats my point in this,but my feedback was ignored

[ruby rain]

or like the magazines sticking up on the Prada

or what's it called

[sleek fractal]

Instead they raise it now,introduce T9 and it will fight the same vehicles again

Gaijin smart

[ruby rain]

Hopefully something will be done after people stop buying the prem

[sleek fractal]

Nope

Wouldnt suprise me if it gets darts

[mellow zealot]

if at the very least it took out all of its ammo that'd be nice

it'd be cool if it was likea mini-explosion that took out the turret crew for example overpressure style
would kill the bmpt-72 but keep the base bmpt alive

[mellow zealot]

its cool but its way too situational some maps it'll fuck up and others its completely useless

AMX-30 have atleast some armour but that thing just gets shredded

8.7 no stab is lethal

[sleek fractal]

Kürassier at least has a stab and darts

[mellow zealot]

the one in french tree? the german one doesn't have a stab

[sleek fractal]

Need to look at home in an hour

[sleek fractal]

https://warthunder.com/en/game/changelog/current/1817

Heat fixed

[sleek fractal]

That report is linked

Guess its worth trying 90mm heat again later

[sleek fractal]

Ok both Kürassier are not stabilised.
