[QUOTE=Starce;39827019]Just started playing this, I finally got out of the original German bi-plane, thank god.[/QUOTE]
Wait until you get to play Italian planes
Christ, just had the most rage inducing game ever. I got one-shotted in 3 out of 5 out of my planes. My Catalina, Hellcat, and P-47 all got one shotted. Then my other two planes, my P-40 and F2A got their right wings clipped by enemy planes right after I took them out, so all I was doing with them was limping back to the airfield.

Custom paint jobs like that always looked unsettling, I'd be pissing myself if I saw one of those diving on my ship.
Personally though, I always liked the German paint jobs

I suggest everyone here go play some Full real battles. The damage models there makes much more sense for some reason and makes for a much more fun game. After a few games you really get the hang of spotting the enemy without icons even if its night/raining and keeping track of them. Bi-planes are rendered useless with the way full real works and the "tank" planes are not in the bullshit realm tanky because a few hits of my 7.62's from my bf-109 and I took out the engine of a p-40.
tl:dr go play full real because its way less rage inducing and feels like im playing il-2 1946
I would, except for the fact you have to wait quite a bit to get into a match, or at least I do with my damn timezone...

It takes around 2-4 minutes to get into a match pretty much at any time.
Designating my Aircobra as a bomber-attacker hunter yields very promising scores.
Recently getting more air kills in my heavy bombers than my fighters :/
Whats up with the bomber tutorial?
The fighters just keep getting further and further away and it auto fails me every time
Russian voodoo
I wonder if it would be possible for Gaijin to add the Ho 229.

Flying wings are very very very hard to fly because of the lack of a tail with a rudder. plus the other German jet-bomber is in the game, so why would you want the go 229?
Because then if you got shot down you could say your plane is made out of wood... and you'd be correct. :v:
The devs are reluctant to add prototype planes, but you're lucky, [URL="http://warthunder.ru/upload/image/TREES/luftwaffe_eng.png"]Go 229 is planned to be added[/URL].

I think it will be slower than the Arado, but have a larger payload and be invisible to AAA.

was it [I]really[/I] stealth? I know they made a documentary speculating it but was it[I] really[/I]?

It was [b]"[/b]Stealthy[b]"[/b] (and I put that in HUGE quotation marks) but it wasn't equipped with a cloaking device. AA fire can still see it.

Because WWII anti aircraft guns are radar operated.
[QUOTE=TaiwanesePrick;39842928]was it [I]really[/I] stealth? I know they made a documentary speculating it but was it[I] really[/I]?[/QUOTE]
It had [I]very[/I] limited stealth. There was a documentary about it and the only way it would have gotten any sort of benefit is if it came in low and fast so it could get a very slight drop on the enemy (they used the Battle of Britain as the proposed scenario). The only reason people think it's stealth is because the B2 bears a resemblance to it. On a side note I was stoked when I got to see the fuselage of the Ho229 when I was in D.C. a few years ago.
Which Prem US plane is the best? I'm thinking about tossing a bit more dosh for premium..
Ahhh FUCK ME
What the dick can you do about someone behind you?
Happens EVERY TIME

grrrr I am literally disabled as soon as someone gets behind me
just have to fly in circles until they manage to kill me
Depends what are you flying and what is on your tail. Forget about outmaneuvering biplanes. Some people can't follow a simple loop, not to mention more complex maneuvers, so just start moving in random, weird directions.
If you're flying a bomber or an attacker, enjoy your death.
[editline]nonono[/editline]
don't force circlejerks, they'll get you anyway.
I need more guns! 7.7's just seem to do fuck all against... anything.

The A6M5 looks to be the best especially from what I've seen in FRB.

Sometimes you can outclimb them but that wont happen much in arcade.
Or you can try to force a overshoot with slowing down and preforming a scissors flat/rolling.

Or you could try a snap-stall but I dont think thats possible in arcade and requires tons of skill.
Just managed to top my team in fighter kills... With a single bomber.
Heh, I gave up on trying to stop people, sometimes going really close to the trees work and they just crash hah.
Q: Does the first JU87 have the jericho siren?
Hitting someone in midair with a rocket is so satisfying
