[QUOTE=MrWhite;45526204]Plus maybe the amazing 103 sound they added that never gets used because it's only on like 2 planes.[/QUOTE]
Three, actually. Since the sound change also affected Type 5 cannons, the Sushi uses the new sounds too. Y'know, for what that's worth.
Oh man, just nearly landed a Ki-84 after killing a P80 and a Lancaster, but my engine died. Barely made it over the last few trees to the landing strip, but just second before actually landing I just randomly exploded. Invisible trees or something? That was an anti-climax.

I've noticed that on some occasion, client-server desync makes it look like trees are lower than they are, or at least that's what I think it is. I've crashed into trees after visually clearing them many times recently, so it's either a desync issue or trees just have massive hitboxes now.

Four. They put it on the Ki-84 Hei for some reason to. It doesn't make much sense, as the Type 5 and Ho 155 30mm cannons aren't even close to the same cartridge as the Mk 103.
Thus, the new sound is on the:
[B]Me 410 B3/R6
Fw 190F-8 w/ Gun Pods
Ki-84 Hei
Ki-200 Sushi[/B]
Oh man, some of these maps are so biased... If there's any jets involved it's a guaranteed loss.
We've killed all of their planes but one jet, while we suffered minimal losses, but we're still losing because our tickets just gradually decrease. We can't even locate the jet, let alone get close to it. He'll just outrun us because Japan doesn't get any jets.
So my japanese matchmaking was broken today, I was flying out the Ki-45(?) (The one with the sharge music and I was paired with Ki-10's against Peashooters heh. So I got to use my 37mm cannon against pea shooters
Glad to see matchmaking in this game is still the worst thing ever, 25+ people on each team in the event queue and it still takes 25 minutes for the match to start.

I want that plane so much, because it looks so much fun to sneak underneath an enemy bomber and pump 20mm HE shells into its soft and succulent underside, all while they're unable to fight back effectively. Have you got a chance to try that yet? From what I saw of a game-play video, the angle of the guns makes it so you need practically zero lead to pinpoint your target.
[QUOTE=Texas_Ranger;45519261]
We lost. We fucking lost. You know why? Those last two bots peaced out and were nowhere to be found, meanwhile I worked on bombing the last of the tanks. They ended up having four tanks left and winning. The enemy team won even though they lost. They won not because they were better, but because our team didn't mop up their AI. This is the kind of stupid shit that should never happen.[/QUOTE]

Shot down the last sabre with the last round and the last second of fuel i had left after dancing with him for 10 minutes. Lost because Alex was circling the battlefield in his b17.
Bots need to be removed from RB and SB.

They're fun as shit to use but it has the same incorrect lead indicator as gunners do, and in order to fire them at all you have to hit a key to switch the camera to the jazz guns crosshairs, so you can't just hit the cannons key and expect them to fire in the regular view.

PLAY RB THEY SAID.
IT'S NOTHING LIKE ARCADE THEY SAID.

The problem is the Ki heavy fighter's altitude performance is terrible
If you can find a bomber low, yea you can tear them to shreds, but if they're above 2.5-3k you might as well forget about it because you will never get up that high
some dude got buttmad that I joked to him to climb 90 degrees in a panther so he kept team killing me in realistic (also probably because I shot him some well deserved .50 rounds right after the round ended)
decided waiting in a jet queue with 10 people including him wasn't for me so I decided to buy the Ki84 Otsu for the first time and took it for a stroll in arcade
damn, I like this plane already

is the hei even better?
Well looks like people only play arcade tanks now.

Considering the massive turd that is Realistic Tanks you can't blame them.
d-did they fix the minimap in tonks yet?
[QUOTE=I-the-gamer;45527645]Considering the massive turd that is Realistic Tanks you can't blame them.[/QUOTE]
Except arcade tanks is full of fucking retards.
Arcade tanks is pointless it shows you where to aim which is like half the game.
[QUOTE=Shibbey;45528409]Arcade tanks is pointless it shows you where to aim which is like half the game.[/QUOTE]
so what you are saying is that it isn't pointless because it teaches you where to aim which is very important because it is half the game
My Hurricane Mk I is not getting the 3x RB bonus in kills towards it's skin.
Can anyone confirm that happening with any other skins/achievements?
[QUOTE=Skwee;45528447]so what you are saying is that it isn't pointless because it teaches you where to aim which is very important because it is half the game[/QUOTE]
I mean there is no real skill to it since everyone knows how to kill everyone, there is none of the "puzzle" or whatever. And it's not as if most tanks don't have the same rough weakspots.
[QUOTE=Skwee;45528447]so what you are saying is that it isn't pointless because it teaches you where to aim which is very important because it is half the game[/QUOTE]
My main problem with arcade tanks was that I'd tend to rely too much on the aim-assist. Rather than actually learning which gun/ammunition can penetrate what tank where and from which distances, I'd just wave the gun around a bit until the indicator went green or yellow, then fire.
Playing RB and being forced to use the sight to range-find made me a much better player.
Did RB tanks ever fix the nametags?
I've never seen half of my tanks because I play SB exclusively due to the nametags ruining any semblance of stealth in ground forces.

Why did no one warn me that the Hurricane Mk I was so much fun in RB? I've had nothing but victories ever after I went after it's two skins.
I love TKing TKers. Some guy named "GoatNads6970" spawned in on a b-25, and he starts shooting out my tail and engines, I manage to lose him in my glorius stalinium b-25 but he started to shoot a friendly b-17. The friendly b-17 loses his tail, as well as losing both of his engines. GoatNads6970 goes in for a ram on the b-17 and misses, giving me the perfect opportunity to use [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erf5HECJvyk]my glorius soviet b-25 flying skills[/url] to slam into him, his wing ends up being lopped off and he tries to ram the b-17 again, but he misses and ends up spiraling into the ocean. We win the round the b-17 survived, and we 2 enemy aircraft in our crippled bombers. Goatnads gets stiffed on the repair cost since it technically counted as "suicide".
Anyone else really excited for the next update?
Why do people fly the shitty Amerijets? Seriously, all I see with the B-17 anymore is Hokkaido with a bunch of F-84s and P-80s trying to fight Sea Jesus
Man I would really kill for fly by wire.
Finally got the Sabre. It's okay, but the CL-13 seems unbeatable. Also modifications suck, how am I supposed to grind 29K for one mod when the plane handles like ass compared to the fully upgraded jets it fights?

Hurricane MkI is fantastic. Trying to land it is pretty hilarious though because it can actually fly like a helictoper with the nose 15 degrees down but still flying level. Also makes strafing targets great.
