Did they nerf the RP gain for the P-51 I swear it was 72% but now it's 66% And the sad thing is that i love flying the P-51 but i need the most rp gain plane to research the jets:l
M2 machine gun on P-51/P-47 also has a higher fire rate than all the other M2 machine guns in game because some reason I forgot.

They changed the D-30 Mustang's guns to M3s from M2s; not sure about the D-20.

*are going to change. Hopefully by 1.43
The P-51 and P-47 had their M2s tuned different with some freedom magic or something, resulting in a slightly higher RoF without being M3 tier absurdity.

Those new fiddies sound fucking terrible.

The plain-Jane not-my-shitty-mixed one on from Dev sounds fine to me. It's basically the same exact thing we have, a bit faster, and with a little more variance.
[QUOTE=kenji;45633291]Those new fiddies sound fucking terrible.[/QUOTE]
I like them, they got bass.
the MG17 sound like a hive of angry bees though jesus.
MG17s are way too loud for how shitty they are.
[QUOTE=Shibbey;45633934]MG17s are way too loud for how shitty they are.[/QUOTE]
It was so you could hear them. Some guy on the forum wanted me to stack them like I did the bad fiddy job.
It doesn't really work because the MG17 has a buzzsaw sound and so stacking them doesn't really add anything, just volume.
Only the second clip is how it'll be in game, since that's just the sound amplified enough to hear it over the engine. The other two clips are a 2x and 4x stack.
There's a lot of speculation now that 1.43 will enable tank MGs, too.

I don't really see how tank mg's would be that useful.
Maybe against trucks?

It could be used for range finding
You can also use them to shoot at soft targets like AAA guns instead of wasting time and ammo with your cannon.
They want tank MGs and all the new SPAAGs so they can tone down Skynet's AAA Defense Grid on CARBs.
Tank MGs, especially commander/roof guns will be great for discouraging low level bombers.
(Though at the same time, engaging them at the wrong time is a big tracer conga line of "PLEASE, BOMB HERE.")
So, I'm confused. The 2x RP battle windows are listed as GMT, do they mean GMT+1? Because I remember the last 2x Lions event starting an hour later than I thought it would.

We can always hope they give us belt choices.
Stealth ammo for my commander's DShK pls Gaijin :v:

Yes, because they consider GMT to not to honor DST so during summer, it's GMT+1.
[QUOTE=Skwee;45634363]It could be used for range finding[/QUOTE]
Target marking too. I remember platooning with someone in simulator mode and he kept saying, "T34 behind the bush on the horizon" and for the life of me I just couldn't find it. With a MG he could've marked the location.
So I dive on a guy after letting my team know I am going to attack him, but he dives away and has superior speed so I will never catch him.
I break off to find other targets since this was the start of the round and he was one of 2 or 3 people we had spotted so far.
(He was going like 700 kph and I was only going 670 or so..)
Then I look at my radar a few seconds later..

Just got ace training for my already 100% leveled b17g crew. RIP enemy interceptors.

Because the round ends too fast, or because of awful players?

because no matter how high i climb in my fighter it is always gonna end with me being fucked by 5 enemy fighters because there are no other fighters on my team for them to go after or to support me

I get the same shit here, too. It's always either the entire enemy team spawns in bombers and nobody tries to intercept them, or my entire team goes in bombers and the few who even try to use fighters get clusterfucked. That, and either way the game ends way too quickly to let me do anything.
Anybody want to fly with me even though I haven't played in months and I'm pretty bad? I want fun! fun! fun!

at least i know aerial tactics!
which tu-2 is the one you guys jizz all over

[QUOTE=Skwee;45636336]which tu-2 is the one you guys jizz all over[/QUOTE]
all of them are amazing
the last one with the 4 bladed props and the 20mm asscannon is extra cool tho
[QUOTE=Skwee;45636336]which tu-2 is the one you guys jizz all over[/QUOTE]
[B]Tu-2[/B]: Awful payloads, good BR.
[B]Tu-2S[/B]: Great payloads. Second worst performance of the bunch. Still fucking incredible.
[B]Tu-2S-49[/B]: Not really worth the min-max differences it has over the 2S for the extra BR. Nice skins tho.
[B]Tu-2S-59[/B]: [B][highlight]SHIVA GOD OF DEATH DESTROYER OF GROUND TARGETS AND PILLAGER OF THE SKIES.[/highlight][/B]
Plus the 59 gets in jet matches sometimes so you can fly low while everyone goes low orbit. Tho that happens a lot in the 2S and 2S-49 for me too. They're not nearly as good for AB and they're not hop in brainless planes. They require a bit of effort and good gunnery, but they'll do fuckin' magic if you use them right.
Pictured, typical Tu-2S-59 5x. Slap a talisman on it and 10k RP towards planes is typical even for the shitty wins.
