[QUOTE=Dermock;45587062]That feeling when you're flying your best plane and you get killed via pilot-knockout before you can do any real damage is not a feeling I enjoy feeling.[/QUOTE] And then that battle turns out to be your x2 win [i]every fucking time[/i]
Haha, info about the event is on the Russian page. [url]http://warthunder.ru/ru/news/1061/current/[/url] It's chance based! Everyone can get an achievement and 5000 people will get the aircraft randomly.

Haha thats stupid as hell, fuck whoever came up with that shit
Any suggestions on what to fly for britbongs for boomerang? i'm thinking spit 1a carries pretty well. Also AB/RB?
[I]What the fuck[/I] is an A26c
[QUOTE=kenji;45591075]Any suggestions on what to fly for britbongs for boomerang? i'm thinking spit 1a carries pretty well. Also AB/RB?[/QUOTE] AB for grinding victories for sure. And probably not a spit, you generally want a groud attacker to win matches. Maybe a few fighters for capping points in domination matches but you want MOARBOMBS for the most part.

Holy shit. 125 Victories? Maybe I'll go for one, but fuck all five. If this is the tier II shit, I can't wait to see how putrid the IV shit will be. Here's a better idea. Instead of wasting tons of hours on threse, I just use my throw-away money to get what I want with zero time and effort. Because fuck the 20+ hours this would take.
20 wins a day for a guaranteed aircraft. Fuck me.
125 victories for a fucking wellington nothx
I might be unemployed but the time I would spend on that I could probably make the money worth by begging on the street, this is totally not worth it to me.
Yeahhh besides i just tried one arcade match and nopnopnope can't handle it. fuck arcade.
I would easily make $200+ something at my old shit job in the time it takes to do one plane. Fuck you Gaijin.
When they say victories, do they mean missions won or kills? They've never actually used "kills" when referring to...well, kills. I want the Japanese 109 and I kinda want the Yellow-Belly Jelly Welly™ even though I hear it's awful, but 125 [I]missions won[/I]? I have something like 500 victories total in 600 hours.
anyone could just buy a talisman instead. [editline]4th August 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=Ekalektik_1;45591247]When they say victories, do they mean missions won or kills?

125 kills would be tough but doable, I would just use Hellcat/109-F/P-39 SU/Spit 22/Ki-84. But wins? Wins are completely out of my hand half the time.

God knows what the have in stock for my moosetang. I am Baskin Robbins 21 Flavors of mad right now.
Some guy started talking me about the 50. cals overperforming and said that they couldn't rip a wing off in real life. And he even said that the 7.7mm make bigger bullet holes than the 50. cal
Let's just say it takes a total fucking loser to win. Ironic. [editline]4th August 2014[/editline] You should see the official forums. There was one guy explaining with "math" how a B17 should handle head on collision with a mustang because the B17 weighed so many more tons, and the engine had a lot of more horsepower than the mustang, so only the mustang would be damaged.

[QUOTE]If you also factor in that the fighter is going to crumple and both planes are going to be pushed in the air sideways, the force gets dissipated more. How much, I don't know. But the point is, these aren't two brick walls of infinite mass that do not budge. A non-trivial amount of the kinetic energy is transferred into momentum on the other plane. (I.e., in a car accident one time, I saw a car coming behind me too fast to stop and I knew there were no cars in front of me so I took my foot off the brakes. The car hit me and pushed me forward, dissipating some of the collision force by pushing my car. If I had kept my foot on the brakes I would have suffered a greater impact--until the friction from my tires could no longer hold me in place. This is one reason why getting t-boned in a car is very deadly, because your car is sideways and can't dissipate much energy by moving--and side airbags aren't as common as front.) A bomber or fighter doesn't have brakes and the medium it is travelling in is air, which doesn't have nearly as much resistance as, say, water (try running submarines into each other). [/QUOTE] You see... because the other plane can be pushed away, all that force is only transferred into motion. The b17 would only be pushed to the side, not cut through. Because of friction.

[quote]In the event of the situation when the aircraft has already been unlocked on the account and the player has completed the Sky High Fliers achievement, the player will be rewarded in Golden Eagles equal to the cost of that plane;[/quote] Time to bring out the German bombers and ruin [i]my[/i] fun for a while so I can get that sweet welllington gold. Actually wait, never mind. Took me a second to wake up and remember just how long 125 battles takes.
Welp, so much for that one.
[QUOTE=Oscar Lima Echo;45591253]Won. Kills are player defeated and stuff like that.[/QUOTE] Great. I can already see the hordes of tryhards in F8Fs.
Boy am I glad that my silly self already bought most of those premium planes because holy shit fuck everything about getting that many wins in RB. Even worse, the only one I [i]don't[/i] have is the Japanese 109. Can you imagine trying to get 125 wins as [i]Japan?[/i] :suicide: [editline]4th August 2014[/editline] Although more idiot players trying to get wins as fast as possble=more idiots killing themselves on my B-25 turrets. Woo!

What should I try to get a premium plane in? Country i play alot (britbong) or some other country? which is the best prem plane on offer?
[QUOTE=Dermock;45592937]What should I try to get a premium plane in? Country i play alot (britbong) or some other country? which is the best prem plane on offer?[/QUOTE] Boomerang is the only really unique one, I would go with that. That is, if you're playing RB. For AB the BR is unreasonably high.
