[QUOTE=KommradKommisar;39942343]What level is the new American bomber going to be available at?[/QUOTE]
7 and 9.
So, just had an awsome dogfight between me in a SB-2M (the tier 3 russian bomber) and a F4F.
I was behind him practicaly the entire time, front gunner keeps missing and occasionaly he would pull a menuvour that got him behind me, then i'd pull one and so on.
It was dual of fates for 15 minuites while we went at eachother, neither managing to get a decent damage hit, meanwhile my only teammate left is sitting on the runway in his ju-87 doing nothing.
He finaly comes over to help right as the guy decides to retreat to his own teams runway as ive gotten one of his tail fins damaged, as hes flying over I say fuck it and switch to gunner view, attempt to fire at him while wrestling with the mouse aim vs my keyboard.
Suddenly my engine explodes into flames as I open up on him, he also bursts into fire.
Archival killed by AAA
<enemy guy> killed by AAA
Camera switches to my last teammate - he gets killed by AAA the second it switches view to him.
what the fuck just happened :v:
you were reminded that bombers aren't fighters.
Not really liking the dev server for 1.29, maybe because all of the enemy team consists of yak's and migs

What kind of credit do you get on the dev server to play around with.

Whats with the servers being so utterly shit the past two days?
200ping + 30% packet loss up to 75% on EU
How does one get on dev server anyway?
I'm pretty sure it's explained somewhere in the thread, but I can't be arsed to sweep through the pages.

The dev server is only online at specific times and the devs only say the times on the Russian forums.
Lastly here is a file containing all the price changes in the update.

Thanks man
So I started playing HB today and it's so damn fun. I just wish there were more players playing it and that I could use my murican planes.
[QUOTE=O'Neil;39942522]7 and 9.[/QUOTE]
Sweet, new bomber plane! Thank god I'm already level 10
Was last plane in HB, engine hit, landing failed, enemy shot me down. We were running out of tickets really fast and then
enemies ran out first with a bunch of planes left. Won with no planes left and nearly no tickets. The best win I have ever had.
I really hope the Me-163 pilots in AB will only have a max fuel limit of 8 minutes and 120 rounds max for its cannons. Then the pilots would only intercept bombers.
What's with the german fighter bombers? they only let me drop bombs when i'm angled down. Then they won't let me get past 220 mph, which isn't enough to climb on a map like Himalayas (or whatever that mountain map is) .
That feel when you lose speed while diving.
[QUOTE=KommradKommisar;39946332]That feel when you lose speed while diving.[/QUOTE]
That feel when you dive in a german plane and can't pull up for shit.
That feeling when you're about to score a kill. But your teammates are cunts and fly into you.
I'm quite excited about the new american bombers as well. 12x 45kg bombs at the start = major butthurt, but at least it's got machine guns, so it'll be possible to grind some experience with b&z or bomber hunting.
That feel when you chase a enemy aircraft and shoot him on fire while 3 teammates frantically shoot your rear trying to steal the kill.

Poor Ki-200 pilots, must suck to grind the entire japanese tree and then get shafted by russian devs. At least the germans have other alternatives, and it's not like a shitty japanese bomber is going to make up for ruining their only end game dogfighter/interceptor.
I still don't know what the devs hope to get out of crippling two nation's end game and providing no incentive to grind to them or any other nation's jet (unless 4v4 battles that take 10 minutes to get into and aren't even jets only is your type of battle).
Glad I took a break from the game and I only get enjoyment out of the low tiers now, or else I might actually be concerned over how the russian devs are handling their late game material.

If you're talking about the JU-87, it's not really a fighter bomber. It's a dive bomber. The second you get someone on your tail you might as well just leave the aircraft. Your gunners puny lil' 7.92 ain't gonna do shit against anything.
Many people forget that the ju-87 had one purpose and one purpose only and that was precision dropping of bombs.
In warthunder you are better off taking a bf-109 with a bomb rather than a ju-87.

I got as far as the JU-87 with the 2 37mm's, but never bought it. Having a JU-87 with a load large enough to knock out a destroyer in one run is pretty handy, as long as you don't get caught doing it.
How to not worry about repair fees.
Turn auto repair off, Play different planes whilst you wait.
That might even be why they're there, To encourage you to play different things. Why was this not written down somewhere?

I always a round on every nation with autorepair off when I log on. You can play very aggressively because you don't have to pay for repairs. Earns you quite a bit of money, doesn't take that long to do and slowly levels all your nations.

Nice to see most of the repair costs are lowered quite a bit. How come a large number of the German ones are raised though?
[QUOTE=fishyfish777;39948599]One-shot a Blenheim with my LaGG-3.
wat.[/QUOTE]
LaGGs put out way more damage than they should with just 1 cannon, one of them put a dinner-plate sized hole in the wing and blew an engine out of my BF110 in one burst.
