Last night, lost a game because some 12 year old sperm decided it was hilarious to teamkill everyone. Half the team left before the middle of the game.
This and how most of the time in arcade, one team steamrolls the other because one team gives no shits about the objectives and just circlejerks in a corner of the map, and how realistic battles are always empty when I play tank battles, make me not want to play tank battles at all.
Am I the only one that gets stuck in these situations?
Same shit basically applies to plane battles, but at least Realistic battles with planes are always full, so there's that
[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;46369521]then you tk'd him back then harassed him the rest of the match. fuckin hilarious bro.[/QUOTE]
Yes, I did. It was humorous. I'd do it again in a heartbeat. Let's get things straight, by the way. I was playing for the objective. I had already shot down a bomber and helped cap a point. He comes into the point and teamkills me an-
Why am I even trying to defend myself. I did what I did in an arcade game against an angry Russian teamkiller and it made me laugh. If someone teamkills me (with the justification that I'm not doing my job in this case), I'm more than happy to return the favor to him.
Just had 2 quick arcade rounds, first one I flew my Bf 109 E-1 and got like 4 assists.
Then the second round, I started with my Ju 87 D-3, just to get shredded into pieces by a Ju 87 D-5. The same guy also managed to take down my Bf 109-E3 and Bf 109-F1... How is that even possible? I mean, the D-5 is a dive bomber, not an anti-fighter bomber... I could understand it totally when he flew a G-1 or G-2, but this is just ridiculous.
Well the D-5 is armed with cannons while the D-3 has 7.7mm guns. Night and day difference there.

My buddy used to never get banned, but once he did, any time he swore it'd be a 15 or 30 day chatban. It got to the point where he would just use substitutes like slob instead of bitch or some shit like that, and they'd still ban him for "abuse". So he just stopped playing.

Honestly, I'm pretty close to doing the same. This game is beginning to be frustrating. There is quite a separation here between planes and tanks, so it's hard to get a couple people to fly out with. Then the grind at Tier 4 planes for even just upgrades so your plane isn't horrendously outperformed by others is... Hard. Then you get teams that cyka blyat pizdat into the sea, or one on one against N1K's, D-13's, LA-9's or MiG's, and you're the only one left alive to get gang banged by space Japanese planes.
It just doesn't seem worth the aggravation. I'm not saying I want to coast along in a game, I'm saying that I'd like to have fun, and see upgrades that actually do something when I earn them, so I'm not devestated each round by planes that out perform me in every way.

I fly the D-5 in high tier arcade as a fighter interceptor; fly at bomber alt, load stealth belts, shred anyone who tries to climb up. It is very effective, and it turns on a dime.
[QUOTE=Timebomb575;46368314]also surprised they went with the M13, I feel like it would be pretty useless with only two fiddycals
So the AA line is probably gonna go something like:
M13 (dual fiddies) > M16 (Quad fiddies) > M15 (37mm AA + dual fiddies) > M19 (Twin 40mm) > maybe M42 Duster (Twin 40mm)
M42 seems a little redundant but I could see it being used.

Nope thats new[/QUOTE]
M42 Dustbinner has been in the files for quite a while.

Repair costs for aircraft have been changed (details can be found here)
BRs for aviation have been changed (details can be found here)
Damaged engine sounds have been added for tanks
Improved quality of the trees at the distance
New battle queue screen
Flying boats now will automatically turn away from carrier after they repaired/rearmed close to it on the water
Synchronisation of destructible trees has been improved
Statistic for Race Event has been changed. Now leaderboard will count completion speed.
Interface changes:
Aircraft damage indicator has been fixed

Damage Model
Fixed interaction of the shells with incendiary effect to aircraft covering
Fixed explosive effect from the shells which lead to not full damage to be done to an aircraft
Material density parameter for nodes and components of the ground forces was fixed. Modules that are located inside now properly interact with secondary fragments and can protect other modules from being damaged. This parameter was too low before and fragments that hit the modules could penetrate it fully
Ground Forces
Maximum fire rate of ML-20S cannon was increased from 2.58 to 2.82 shots per minute
Maximum fire rate of M-30 cannon was increased from 2.46 to 3.3 shots per minute

Wirraway has been tuned according to its data sheet
Both B-57 engines now have same allowed overheat time
MiG-9 and its late version stat cards have been updated (not a FM update)
Bugfixes:
Error when fire extinguisher icon remained inactive with burning tank has been fixed
Error which lead to player to gain “an assist” after he would hit a teammate has been fixed
Fixed issue where player would receive “all modules are already researched” message while trying to research new modules
Fixed wrong display of spend lions for ammunition auto-purchase
Fixed display of the normalized armour thickness on very flat slopes
Issue when AI ground vehicles would not leave traces while moving has been fixed
Sound announcement about shell shocked driver has been fixed
Fixed how controls are displayed on Ho.229 in the hangar
Joysticks and gamepads no longer will be controlling the game while game window is not active
Auto-trim adjustment behaviour (and instructor) has been fixed on aircrafts with deflected vertical stabilizer
Fixed the end of the battle for players who watch the game in Spectator mode (they get back into the session and not in hangar)
Reflections of the cloud on the aircraft have been fixed (they were too bright)
Issue when engine continued to consume fuel even after they were turned off has been fixed
Disabled ability to switch vehicle presets while crew still was in the battle (it was leading to errors and impossibility to fly out)

Thanks.
Repair cost reductions for Japanese planes almost across the board. Of particular interest to me is that the Shinden dropped from 43k to 29k. It's still silly high, but it's better than nothing I guess.

Dang, I was hoping for a new halloween event, I already have the 2-oP from last year :(
[QUOTE=kirederf7;46327408]The captured kv-1 plays like ass, what is the point of this thing?[/QUOTE]
Okay, I take it back, I have a 80% win rate on it and only died 4 times so far in 10 matches killing 30 enemy tanks.
Whoo now I can gwt the 2PO - Op too! 😁
Po-2Spooky
Also, the shot-cam only compounded both the joy and rage I feel playing tanks. Mostly the rage.
[editline]30th October 2014[/editline]
Planes need kill cams. Really fucking bored of watching 30mm shells plink other fighters and getting plain "Hit!!!!"s.

So much more fun than the normal KV-1s :v:
Fancy pairing up some time?

Something like the system they had in ground forces before the hit cam--a list of modules on the right side of the screen color-coded to how much damage they've taken.
E.G. you plink some MG rounds at a guy, list pops up showing you pinked his tail. Then you open up with 20mms and blast off his aileron, it goes dark gray in the list. Would be handy.
I haven't played this game for like a year and booted it up today.
Fucking tanks?! Awesome as hell.
After conducting some research I seem to have found the weakpoint of the KV-1
[video=youtube;RCkT87C6xeE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCkT87C6xeE[/video]
I did it. It took 50 belts and about a straight minute of shooting, and I made more RP off of hits than actually killing him, but I killed a Tiger with my Ostwind's glorious 50mm something pen.
I basically broke his gun, both treads, then clambered up a hill and shot down into his roof armor.
hi doom
hi kommrad
Hi bby. Wish our team wasn't dicks that match.
Playing the premium zero for 8 hours a day is the most depressing shit ever. Fuck f7fs.
