Cool, I always thought they would be bad because the premium one doesnt have much for bombs.
How do you even get the premium one? I looked around a while ago and didn't see any packs or anything.
I got it from closed beta, but there was another way too, I think buying some pack had it as a hidden bonus or something
[QUOTE=Doom14;45636380][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.

2x RP and 200x the retards to go along with it.
Usually have a 70%ish WR. It's 20% tonight.
[QUOTE=Skwee;45636758]do the regular ones not have airbrakes?[/QUOTE]
the first Tu-2S does, but the other two do not.
Will never stop being slightly mad at that.

ACTUALLY NO WAIT A MINUTE IT DOESN'T! Well shit.
I for one welcome our new retard overlords. Just killed 3 Bf-109 G's in a row, in one match, with my B-25 ass gunner.
[editline]9th August 2014[/editline]
Also by the way 2x RP means 2x crew XP, rev up that vitality

they will shoot at you if you so much as touch their tank
[QUOTE=Skwee;45635115]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..

This explains why russian planes are so under-tiered. the only players worse than the average US player.

This song is eerily relevant to playing Ferdinand on many levels
- high voltage (Ferdinand uses an unique electric transmission)
- my desire (JagdTiger)
- fire (oh god how much fucking fire)
- vaguely Germanic vaguely inbred nobility (I am pretty fucking sure Porsche's father must have been his uncle as well)
[editline]9th August 2014[/editline]
Okay, [I][B]fuck[/B][/I] Ferdinand. I tried hard to give it a chance, but JagdPanther is simply better.
[QUOTE=kenji;45638077]This explains why russian planes are so under-tiered. the only players worse than the average US player.[/QUOTE]
German players aren't the greatest either. I've seen 4 FW 190 D-13's dive on a observation aircraft, in a match consisting of 6 v 6.
Yeah, we lost.

It probably depends on the server but usually I find USA players much worse than Russian ones.
What is this?

[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;45638971]It probably depends on the server but usually I find USA players much worse than Russian ones.[/QUOTE]
I find Russian players to possess the utmost minimal skills to operate a computer, let alone War Thunder. Self-preservation is low, ramming friendlies to edge in on a kill is high, and a bunch of other stupid shit.
Americans are slightly (slightly) less stupid, but their personality is infinitely more obnoxious. Team-killing for "kill steals", conga-lining the first enemy they see, engaging bombers from the rear and then crying. They often think the game should suit them whereas the Russians just run around like headless chickens anyways.
Least from my experiences. I might be biased because I can't read Russian. All I ever say is Cyka Cyka Cheeki Breeki whenever I think I'm getting yelled at by one. :v:
They're both equally thick, it's just marginally easier to use an American plane than it is to use a Russian plane in most cases.
[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;45638971]usually I find USA players much worse than Russian ones.[/QUOTE]
In my experience I've found Russians to be [I]skilfully [/I]worse, but I also found that US players tend to completely ignore objectives and just focus on personal gain, and just letting letting the other team win that way.

Could just be because I mainly play on the RU server vOv
Remember to use the Russian store now that their blockade is making rubles worth even less.

It only seems to be worth it on big packs. A difference of $3 for some of the $20-30 packs isn't a deal breaker for me.
However, move up to the $75-100 ones and you can easily save $15-25 or more.
saved shekel is earned shekel

Check the cost in Euros.

I'm afraid to. So I can imagine the savings there. :v:
Also, when can we get gunner AI that isn't fucking awful? They shouldn't be capping anyone at 800m, but I shouldn't have to DO IT MYSELF WHEN THE ENEMY IS AT 30M AND LAY INTO HIM FOR A FEW MINUTES. I don't give a shit that it's a 7.7mm, I was mad. I know F4Us have quite a bit of armor and an armored windscreen, but I was more terrified he was gonna throttle up and ram me.

Also also, anyone know why I suddenly have 400 gold?
They kept nerfing gunners to shit because everyone kept dying to them but it was because of manual aiming and because of B-17 being OP shit on multiple levels. Now, gunners are practically worthless unless you fly B-17 or Tu-2 and aim them manually.

I remember the days of my PBY Gunship mercilessly slaughtering biplanes in Arcade, way back when, with no input or crew XP from me. I just wish they were useful at rock-throwing distances. :v:
Is the gold related to wins or something? 400 seems like an odd number.
These crew locks are getting fucking ridiculous. "Oh, you flew out to the target, killed a medium tank, and killed an enemy plane before getting [i]shot down[/i]? Clearly you're leaver scum, enjoy not being able to fly another sortie for 3 minutes."
[editline]9th August 2014[/editline]
Holy shit it happened again. Under no circumstances should a match that ends in you getting shot down by another player result in a crew lock. Gaijin fix your shit.
It's only 3 minutes just go get a drink or alt tab and read internet for a bit.
Three minutes that could be spent flying another sortie, since there's only a 4-hour window for double RP and everything.
