The actual reason as to why I came on here: [IMG]http://u.cubeupload.com/pussythumper/Screenshot2015011112.png[/IMG] Damn communists, it wasn't even that bad. WOT moderators were much more forgiving, we got to keep IFAP back then. Oh shit how do make these things smaller...
Well that was fun, shame it was only only arcade. [T]https://scontent-a-mad.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xaf1/t31.0-8/10623899_1079013658791557_1411316690849176265_o.jpg?efg=eyJpIjoidCJ9[/t] Also what happened to the IFAP squadron? I came back to this game after a while and I wasnt in it anymore

What's the best nation for going fast? I want to go fast.
[QUOTE=Cataclysmic_47;46906188]What you just described was the Tiger with it's short 88[/QUOTE] hahah hah, dude Tigers and Panthers, if they get matched in against IS-1's and su-85's they one shot kill so easily it's unreal meanwhile most of their frontal armor is stronger than modern armor
[QUOTE=Crimor;46906249]What's the best nation for going fast? I want to go fast.[/QUOTE] Murrica. Both planes and tanks.
Playing against meteors is pure pain.

[QUOTE=C0MMUNIZT;46906329]You were born too late to feel the F4 LW at its prime, rip.[/QUOTE] Sea Meteor is pretty much as much relative bullshit as F4 LW used to be imho, considering it occasionally meets props

[QUOTE=Wazbat;46906228]Also what happened to the IFAP squadron? I came back to this game after a while and I wasnt in it anymore[/QUOTE] Game moderators are strict and found it offensive.
[QUOTE=Winstonn;46906429][t]http://puu.sh/enpHN/2a74167cf9.jpg[/t][/QUOTE] Stuff like this almost makes me want to get premium, almost.
[QUOTE=Wazbat;46906228]Also what happened to the IFAP squadron? [B]I came back to this game after a while[/B] and I wasnt in it anymore[/QUOTE] We occasionally purge inactive players to make room. Also it's IFLAP now because "IFAP" is apparently offensive, even though there's many variations of NKVD and FAP squadrons.
[QUOTE=C0MMUNIZT;46906329]You were born too late to feel the F4 LW at its prime, rip.[/QUOTE] I enjoyed the plane having so little drag you could pop airbrakes and still speed away from pretty much every other aircraft
The SU-122 is hilarious when you manage to land a good hit on someone.
So I'm definitely liking sim battles more for tanks [sp]tfw you flank a Tiger that's been spawn camping your team, rack him while he's desperately trying to move the turret to face you, and only get an assist[/sp]
I just killed a Tiger with T-34 1940. This fucking game...
105 Sherman is still illegal amounts of fun. It doesn't insta-gib like it use to, but you can break cannons with every shot and render people useless.
The M8 is fuckin redonk at 2.0 BR I bring it into 4.7 games with my 105 Sherman and it still does just fine, its actually better than the M24 in pretty much every way

M8A1 is broke as fuck and I love it. It even has like a 3 second faster reload than the Chaffee for no reason.
[QUOTE=Doom14;46908343] It even has like a 3 second faster reload than the Chaffee for no reason.[/QUOTE] Ive been trying to think of a reason and all I can imagine is the open top/ammo rack positioning giving you a little more room for the loader/commander to work in but then again the M8 turret is also pretty fucking cramped looking dimensionaly so it still makes like no sense

Glad the golden battles happened while I was asleep. Or at least I think they did.
Why does the AP round on the M15's 37mm have such awful penetration? I find it hard to believe that the Russian 61K on the ZSU-37 has almost double the penetration with only 27 more millimeters of propellant [editline]12th January 2015[/editline] I guess the russian rounds are slightly lighter apparently
American 37mm everything was fat nasty trash and I don't even know how I've already almost aced the M15 CGMC

R assuming these are the correct guns, saying "27 more millimeters of propellant" is kind of misleading. Considering the total size and that I am not totally retarded right now that is about 12% more propellant if you are assuming the entire length of the shell is made up of propellant. If that is the case ( and I am not at all a ballistics expert so this is literally all assumption because I don't know anything) I would assume that 12% more propulsion would most likely affect the projectile a shit load. Also literally all assumption: What range is being considered what is the projectile made up of what is the shape of the projectile what is the gun length is the gun rifled probably a long list of other shit that I know nothing about I am not trying to form an argument since I am not knowledgeable on the subject at all, just mostly point out that there is [I]possibly[/I] more to gun penetration characteristics than the amount of propellant in the shell basically i don't know anything, but perhaps you aren't thinking it completely through so I am trying to direct you towards the fact that maybe you don't know everything. If you do actually know everything about this shit that I actually don't know anything about then maybe you are right I don't know.

Playing catch-up for the m8 with satellite internet is a special kind of suffering. If the indignant rage hasn't already given me an ulcer, I'm sure the never-ceasing sense of despair will.
