Hah oh god it's a b17 tornado. How horrifying
Anyone feel like sending me an invite to the Steam group? Should be UzumakaiPatchit
[QUOTE=Timezbrick;45476154]Allow everyone in the ifap group to post announcements maybe?[/QUOTE] [i]Your wish, is my command[/i] I'm always here, I just don't post unless I have something interesting to say. [sp]you guys should try that too[/sp] Interestingly, the Pather F9F2 seems to perform better than the F5. [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOmoj2QSlAY[/url]
There's a new map and it's really cool, it's based on the existing Kuban but the mission goal is changed: [t]http://i.imgur.com/VnQXfRo.jpg[/t] You have some time to scramble to altitude etc, the mission doesn't start until someone flies to the base icon. [t]http://i.imgur.com/6orLsRZ.jpg[/t] At which point Stukas spawn! Killing the first wave knocks down about 3/7ths of the tickets at the top, and three waves spawn, so you don't have to kill all of them, but you do have to get most of them. [t]http://i.imgur.com/G7dNThS.jpg[/t] The Rus team here won and we killed a fuckload of AI air units. I actually ran out of ammo, but I baited like 5 fighters long enough for an Il-10 to 23mm down the last 3 Stukas, and we won. [t]http://i.imgur.com/0n5SDP7.jpg[/t] Payout is good too.

[editline]24th July 2014[/editline] [t]http://alternathistory.org.ua/files/users/user459/R2Y2_01.jpg[/t] V3 will have nose intake, it isn't shown in screenshots. According to the devs this is the only exception they are making for paper planes, partially because they can base aerodynamic data on the R2Y1. Also, dev server "soon".

Why would you play player SPAA when the AI AAA guns instagib everyone anyway?
Why does no one use the Sd.Kfz 140/1? I've been using this thing nonstop getting 10+ kills per battle
[QUOTE=Shibbey;45485340]Why would you play player SPAA when the AI AAA guns instagib everyone anyway?[/QUOTE] Because flanking a much higher tier tank and ripping their turret to shreds with small caliber HVAP never gets old.
A question for those of you who are ~seasoned veterans~ and know everything there is to know about Wor Funda: Is the Vampire any good? I've heard it has a terrible place-holder FM, and is woefully underpowered due to being the shittiest version of the Vampire they could've possibly implemented. Is this true?

I enjoy it right now, but it [I]is[/I] matchmaking's bitch.
[QUOTE=Cookie;45486110]Why does no one use the Sd.Kfz 140/1? I've been using this thing nonstop getting 10+ kills per battle[/QUOTE] because it costs gold?
[QUOTE=Timebomb575;45486246]because it costs gold?[/QUOTE] It doesn't cost that much compared to what you get in the pack. And the satisfaction of destroying all those that oppose you. (Assuming T-50s are not involved)
[QUOTE=Cookie;45486264]It doesn't cost that much compared to what you get in the pack. And the satisfaction of destroying all those that oppose you. (Assuming T-50s are not involved)[/QUOTE] Its ok but stricly speaking no better than the PzII or the flakpanzer I The open top and 1.7 BR (meaning it sees T-50s and shit) is kind of annoying

It's pretty much a Panzer II with really good gun elevation and speed, but that doesn't elicit T-50 time. It should be 1.3 imo.

The power output is fine, the track resistance is fine, but there is a massive power ratio jump between gear 3 and 4 while the bottom 3 gears are extremely close together and completely pointless, so the thing accelerates like ass past 20km/h as the 4th gear almost stalls the engine, and when turning around and stuff it's again royally fucked as it keeps wiggling between gear 3 and 4, wasting ton of power again. If they fixed the gear setup, it would be insanely agile.

[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;45486954]If they fixed the gear setup, it would be insanely agile.[/QUOTE] You're still not selling me on a tank that can't engage anything it sees on the upper end of the bracket at all. The T-26E got nudged down to 1.3 (in RB) so why can't the Afuckelpanzer 38t? Oh. It is 1.3 now. MAN. SHOWS HOW MUCH I'VE BEEN PLAYING TANKS, EH?
Got chat banned for the longest amount of time i've been banned for anything, 15 days(!!!!!!) Moon man must be a derogatory term.
[QUOTE=KommradKommisar;45487594]Moon man must be a derogatory term.[/QUOTE] You got banned for Moon Man? There musta' been a hidden mod in the match. I've never gotten chat banned yet and I've gotten pretty colorful before. :v:

I have gone against T-50s but only after dominating about 4 to 5 rounds in a row. Speaking of BR, are they actually using the new ones? It's in the change log but the game game still has the old ones for me.

Were averaging 15,000 lions per game with that thing.

Behold, the glory of the 140/1 [IMG]http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa216/madmax678/raepfest_zps22047cbd.png?t=1406234733[/IMG]
Anyone want to squad up in some meteor/sea meteors in a bit?
Sure, why the fuck not. Now that we got this player chart sorted mostly out, not sure what to do with it. :v: I think the best thing to do is have it on the Steam Group, get all the regulars in the Steam Group - use it to call out squaddin', and I guess hijack the fuck out of Awesomecaek's TS? (jk ily i have no clue if that's a good idea.)
cool, I'll join the steam group and be with you in a few mins
