Ever since the new patch my game just randomly freezes up. Updated to new drivers, still same results.
Only seems to be with this new patch.

It's weird, when reporting historical inaccuracy's in the Warthunder forums they seem to want the .clog file from the client.
[QUOTE=Timebomb575;46749294]It has better passing ability and that's pretty much it yeah.
Unfortunately it [I]really was[/I] that slow and thinly armored. Its another one of those vehicles that gets fucked by the fact that its IRL role (recon/light infantry support, which it was good at) is non-existent in game, so it's just kinda terrible.

You could lower the BR I guess, but it would feel kinda goofy having a 1944 tank fighting interwar tanks[/QUOTE]
Well keep in mind, the Chaffee was also much cheaper to produce than the Sherman. Think of the valuable service you'll be doing for your team and nation by intentionally choosing to go to war in the cheaper vehicle.
More importantly, think of all the cover your wrecked chassis can provide!
INFERIOR CAPITALIST M4 105 CANNOT PENETRATE GLORIOUS T34 1940 WITH HIS WIMPY HE SHELLS. STALINIUM REIGNS SUPREME TO ALL.

if the 105 sherman shoots at the T-34s turret, the shrapnel flies down through the hull roof and cooks the ammo :v:

Really? I've been shot by quite a few and all they seem to do is knock out my gun.

There's actually one of those parked on the outskirts of my town. :v:
I can't wait until they finally enable every single MG on every single tank.
RIP planes.
RIP ears.
RIP patience.
I don't even give a shit, I just want to unleash a stream of fuck-you tracers at people via tanks that have more machine guns than crew members. (Also that they might be slightly useful for range finding.)
Also, they really need a proper convergence update, because multi-gun tanks right now are kinda silly. You have to play a game of back and forth if you want to hit anything beyond a stone's throw. It's hard to even hit some planes properly because even the MGs don't properly converge on the crosshair.
Finally, I want to mention that the M2HB on the first Sherman is actually extremely useful. It acts like an autocannon with 26mm pen and puts any sneaky light/reserve tanks around you to shame.

Those funny coincidences- I spawned in at the moment dad succeeded in starting our crappy lawnmower. "Damn this game sounds good"

For some inexplicable reason, the M2HB on the first sherman specifically does not work for me. I can use other MGs, I can choose it's firing mode, so I am aiming purely the .50, but it just doesn't fire.
I don't need it, tho, I really don't.

The Panther tank is a piece of shit. I remember why I stopped driving it all those months ago

Ausf. D is decent for what it's matched against, all the versions after that and the meaningless battle rating increments makes me cry.
75mm nerf was mean to the Panther and PzIVs.
I just downloaded this game because I loved to play Ace Combat as a kid, any tips for a newbie?

Bind elevators to W and S and throttle to something convenient (I use Z and X) so you can do sick loops, turn off hold button for WEP, and disable ground avoidance and throttle control
The little red ring that builds around your crosshair is your guns overheating, yeah the tutorial doesn't explain that, it doesn't explain a lot of things

I can't kill anything with it. And everything has no issues penetrating me of course. I had a Tiger I in front of me, he was tracked and his gun was just behind a rock so he couldn't really do anything about me. But I had clear shots of his lower plate. Almost the full plate. I put rounds into it in a perfect line from left to right. It took 6 rounds and setting him on fire THREE times to kill him

I've shot T-34s in the rear for them to only turn there barrels at me and claim my PzIV in a single shot.

The APCR rounds we used way back, which do next to no damage even though they penetrated everything, that's what it feels like I'm shooting now, only with a bit less pen

I've got a nice controller for my PC, I find it's easier to play flying games with joysticks, will they work with this game??

All of the shrapnel probably got consumed by the transmission.
In WT, the transmission actually works as armor.
Armor that sets you on fire, but still.

Joystick is better in the realistic/simulator modes
Controller is kinda gimping yourself

Don't underestimate the npc AAA, shit tears you apart if they actually hit you.

Not if your joystick is crappy/older and has no controls for yaw.
[t]http://media.engadget.com/img/product/27/l5x/sidewinder-joystick-2e9p.jpg[/t]
That's mine (which I never use). The connecting point on the base of it is a square which isn't exactly optimal form. I tried using it in IL2 1946 forever ago, but it was almost impossible to line up shots without yaw being on an axis instead of buttons. Having yaw on binary inputs results in it jumping left/right instead of having a nice/smooth slight turn. I never was able to find a way to get around it, so I haven't bothered trying it in WT yet.
I want to try setting up my controller, but I just haven't bothered trying. It's really the only thing keeping me from playing Sim battles every now and then.
I use a cyborg fly 5. It's horrible, but good.

Flying sim all the time with this. Decent amount of buttons.
I need a new stick, this is getting sloppy now :/ What would you guys recommend?
[t]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/82/Microsoft_SideWinder_Precision_2_Joystick.jpg[/t]
I use Microsoft SideWinder Precision 2. It's like 10years old but still working
I still use my Saitek Cyborg 3D Gold. The stick is as old as some FP members. Works a charm. Got it in 1999 or 2000. Around in there
Ok, what's with this stupid bug where your module research points just vanish due to "no module is selected for research"? I just got out of a tank battle in which I got a solid amount of kills and held off the cap point for the majority of the game in my M4A1, and the battle results say that there isn't a module selected for research, and it just dumps 2100 RP into my free RP bin. I HAD fire prevention equipment selected as research, and 2100 would have gone quite a ways on the tank anyways. What gives? Has anyone else had this happen to them?

That Stick was the shit though, fuck so many memories with that thing.
Killing something with A PzIV seems very hard suddenly... what happened? Also I can barely win anymore with german tanks in realistic battles...
