[QUOTE=MAC21500;45601839]In before .50 cal nerf guns and OP 20mms again...[/QUOTE] ASSUMPTION HERE: They actually want lesser machine guns (7mm~) to be more viable, 12.7mm UB and M2 brought down a notch from DEATH INCARNATE, and less hot sparkler action from 20mm+ guns. So I'm happy with that.
[QUOTE=MAC21500;45601839]In before .50 cal nerf guns and OP 20mms again...[/QUOTE] It's hilarious because 50s are over performing massively and 20s are sparking constantly.
[QUOTE=Doom14;45601508]There's a new [URL="http://forum.warthunder.com/index.php?/topic/159137-lassar-responds-current-and-future-aircraft-and-their-armamentdamage-models/page-32#entry3101982"]Lassar Responds[/URL] out.

[QUOTE=Shibbey;45601934]It's hilarious because 50s are over performing massively and 20s are sparking constantly.[/QUOTE] I know, I noticed when my 20mm stealth belts ceased evaporating targets in a few hits. I'd prefer if they didnt nerf US .50 cals, they feel about right, since most aircraft have 6. .30 cal MGs arent really viable anyway unless you have 8-12 of them at > 200m, and they work at that range in game.
[QUOTE=MAC21500;45602042]I'd prefer if they didnt nerf US .50 cals, they feel about right, since most aircraft have 6.[/QUOTE] .50 cals need it. They're massively overperforming in RB, can shred light armored targets, and sometimes just up and rip plane wings off with only a few bullets. Granted, I've had five or six "Hits" in a row when flying my 86-30 against CL-13As and MiG-15s, but fuck Korea anyways.
F-Sabres are bugged to shit in DM. You can have the entire plane DM indicator turn black and it just won't care, will fly as if it was undamaged.
[QUOTE=Shibbey;45598546]Meanwhile, britbong plane is: -- Faster -- Higher dive limit -- Tighter turning radius -- Better climb rate above 2km -- Has a super charger so is actually useful above 2.5km height -- Larger supply of ammo But yeah if you let a worse plane on your tail you get shot down.[/QUOTE] Just saying switching from spits to the LaGG my ratio ahs increased a shit ton. From 1-3 kills per death with spits to 8/12 per death with the LaGG. All you do with the lagg is cirle around the center of the map a bit and when some tard gets close, dakka him a bit and its gg free kill. The biplanes are literally 1 hit 1 kill with it, it is ridic
This new spawn system is the tits for sure, but not sure how it will be balanced in air-only RB. I routinely soak up 10-15 soft targets in my B-25/Tu-2/other ground attacker, which would give me pretty much infinite lives.
[quote]P-59 Airacomet (Event Aircraft)[/quote] Ugh, don't tell me It's getting the La treatment.
[QUOTE=O'Neil;45602702]Ugh, don't tell me It's getting the La treatment.[/QUOTE] That's basically exactly what Lassar said. "Like the La-174"
[QUOTE=Doom14;45602896]That's basically exactly what Lassar said. "Like the La-174"[/QUOTE] I wonder what line it will come off of I'd like to have one even though it will be terrible performance wise :v:
It would probably be rank 5.0 or something.
TB-3 is so much fun. It's the Po-2 supersized. If only it didn't take five minutes to get to the battlefield.
[quote]Hawker Hunter (1.47 - 1.49)[/quote] At least that gives me time to grind the Tempest II (assuming it's on that tree, don't see why it wouldn't be)
I wonder what the new japanese planes in the tech tree will be under I'm just hoping my Ki200 grind isn't going to waste :tinfoil:
[QUOTE=Kill001;45603893]I wonder what the new japanese planes in the tech tree will be under I'm just hoping my Ki200 grind isn't going to waste :tinfoil:[/QUOTE] Even if they throw something in front of it you will still be able to research the Ki-200 so long as you have started the research on it
[QUOTE=Timebomb575;45603907]Even if they throw something in front of it you will still be able to research the Ki-200 so long as you have started the research on it[/QUOTE] But you won't be able to buy it until you research the previous vehicle.
Flew out my I-16 Type 28 for the first time in a while. Shit is fun as fuck. (I flew it out in a tank battle, lasted the whole round, killed 3 enemy planes and a stug.) It's so agile. Is there any sites that have loads of skins? I want to get one on this thing. I haven't used any player skins before so I don't really know where to look.

there are like 0 skins for the i-16 apparently
Took 2 days with many hours spent to complete 25 victories to earn 1 hunting frenzy task. God is it hard and tedious.
So I got about 8 kills in 3 matches using the SU-122 when the tank event started then took a break. Figured I would spend tonight trying to go for 90 since I had a day off tomorrow anyway. But then I remembered someone FP mention the T-60 so I investigated that. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/qBGJJTL.jpg[/IMG] 82 kills in less than 2 hours and every match except the first one where the tank was completely stock was a victory. Most matches I had 10-12 kills and on particularly fast matches this amounted to half my teams kills. The top ammo is absurd. I have a replay I need to edit but once I remembered where crew positions were I was basically killing tanks in two clicks. Bzzt. Dead turret crew. Bzzt. Dead chassis crew. Bzzt. Tanks on fire without an engine.
So I get in a game in my Ki-61 Hein, and get in against mk 22 spitfires and die... so I am like what the fuck so I go and play my mk 22 spitfire hoping to somehow magically get in a game against anything other than fucking USA and this shit happens [img]http://puu.sh/aGv4U/704440f479.png[/img] And of all the jets in the game I manage to get in a fight with a bearcat (Regular, not cannon) And apparently bearcats can out turn me. Fucking hell game.. Fucking. Hell. [editline]5th August 2014[/editline] Probably because he can use flaps and my british shit is all fuckin retarded
So I decided to use a torpedo on my beaufighter. I have to go below 1000 feet, have to be slower than 300 kmph. :suicide:

Always liked torpedo bombing. Made me feel like Luke Skywalker during the Deathstar trench run.
[QUOTE=O'Neil;45606401]Always liked torpedo bombing. Made me feel like Luke Skywalker during the Deathstar trench run.[/QUOTE] Stay on target
[QUOTE=O'Neil;45606401]Always liked torpedo bombing. Made me feel like Luke Skywalker during the Deathstar trench run.[/QUOTE] As much as I want to love torpedoes in this game, I can't help but just ignore them since just launching a salvo of rockets, dive-bombing, or skip-bombing is just so much easier and effective.
