My favorite kill has to be when I took a diving B-25 head-on in a P-40, killed everyone in the cockpit, pulled a barrel roll and avoided the incoming wreck by a few inches.
I honestly don't understand how AB tanks is fun for anybody... yet it has 3-5 times the number of players compared to realistic, not to mention sim. I had to try it since realistic wouldn't give me a match after 10 min.

This 2x RP thing is pretty great, I think by the time it's over my precious soviet-25 will have unlocked every USSR plane from Era I-IV. I could be throwing all of that RP into the first MiG-9, but honestly I'm not that into jets. I'll get there eventually thanks to my talismaned Tu-2.

Same reason AB planes has so many more players?
Losing your 2x to a jet match where you couldn't do anything because you were flying a prop plane and weren't fast enough to get in the gunrange

I like AB because it's like a shooting gallery, especially in low tiers. Most players are so incompetent that you can rack up 15+ kills in a single life easily.
It's like being Rambo, mowing down swarms of hapless goons.

Like I posted previously:
How to win AB tanks.
1.) Take a tank with an autocannon
2.) Move your mouse in circles until XP comes out.
Should i buy premium? This is the first time i'm going to drop a dollar into the game but i'm not sure is it worth it?

does 1 or 2 kills in RB equal 5 or 6 in AB? I'm not really sure how the proportions workout.
[QUOTE=lope;45647599]does 1 or 2 kills in RB equal 5 or 6 in AB? I'm not really sure how the proportions workout.[/QUOTE]
No idea what the proportions are exactly, but I'm kinda crap at RB and I still earn more in 'meh' RB games than 'good' AB games, so it must be pretty high.
[QUOTE=lope;45647599]does 1 or 2 kills in RB equal 5 or 6 in AB? I'm not really sure how the proportions workout.[/QUOTE]
The game treats 1 air kill in RB as 3 in AB.
Realistically, getting one kill in RB secures you the spot of [I]"I'm not a cum gargling potato monkey and I have benefited my team in some fashion."[/I] By the time you get two or more, you've entered carrying status. :v:
[B]Note: [/B]This only counts for human players. Running around engaging bots in RB, then acting like you're doing anything other than senseless masturbation, is absolutely wrong.
[sp]I know, sometimes RB sucks and those bots are worth a little silver and RP, but losing altitude and energy to engage them is how half of my team that managed to actually take-off ends up dying, because other players pounce on them afterwards.[/sp]
[QUOTE=Teippiman;45647457]Should i buy premium? This is the first time i'm going to drop a dollar into the game but i'm not sure is it worth it?[/QUOTE]
It effectively 200% and 150%'s your RP and Silver (maybe it's the other way around) ensuring that you're getting in a lot more grinding and money. If you're not retarded, it makes almost every match where you didn't die on take-off profitable, even up in the jet tiers. There's also the four decal slots, which is extremely important:

[QUOTE=Doom14;45644124][B][highlight]Doom's[/highlight] Handy Guide to Enjoying the [I][U]TB-3[/U][/I][/B]
[B]Step 1:[/B] Find a low-memory game or activity. As in terms of computer usage.
[I]Handy Suggestions:[/I] Emulators, Doom, old games, Netflix, Youtube, etc.
[B]Step 2:[/B] Boot both that thing and War Thunder. Start up a que for your handy dandy [I]TB-3[/I] in RB.
[B]Step 3:[/B] Do your other thing. Come back only to spawn and point your plane at the target.
[B]Step 4:[/B] Go back to your thing. Enjoy doing that thing for another two to five minutes.
[B]Step 5:[/B] [highlight]Combat![/highlight] Enjoy the absurdity that is your TB-3 in combat, and make sure to pause your other thing.
This includes but is not limited to:[I] Killing everything, going slow, getting insta-gibbed by that one fucking AAA, killing everything, funny remarks from confused players, lots of bombs, and killing everything.[/I]
[B]Step 6:[/B] Wonder at what point your life took the turn that lead you to play [U]two[/U] games at one time instead of anything productive.[/QUOTE]
You left out the elite tactic for only the most skilled TB-3 pilots.
Team up with a jet and begin a reign of terror in Korea.

War Thunder would do really well with letting people do sound mods, but the developers are a tad touchy about it.
I know it uses FMOD, so I'm sure some wizard could rig the same shit that they use to mod World of Tanks in this, but I wouldn't even know where to start.
I don't trust the in-game radio feature, a few people are saying it likes to abruptly stop or even crash the game.
I swear it's impossible to win a game in any of the Mustangs
Okay, I got literally all tanks available up to Era 4 inclusive, now to get the JagdTiger.

I would be impressed but that's [I]pretty much the fucking requirement[/I] to get into Era 5
seriously why the flying fuck did they keep the [B]YOU NEED 6 VEHICLES TO GO UP A RANK[/B] thing when there are only 6 god damn vehicles in that era
Probably it's so people have to invest all that time/money before they find out Era 5 plays like shit.
[editline]10th August 2014[/editline]
I honestly don't know IF it plays like shit because I can't ever get a bloody match in the T-54.
I'm only 3 planes from having every Russian plane I-IV. Is the IL-10 1946 as stronk as it looks?

4 NS-23 cannons are fucking worthless compared to the 2 VYa cannons.
