Speaking of music, I always liked putting on Luftrausers while flying Germany.
Shame it's only two minutes and wears out after about a day.

woah man click exit battle and join a new one or fuckin leave your vehicle and get in a new one. Not a hard decision.
your ammo being damaged isn't a matter of a single thing being fucked up, it is a matter of multiple rounds being fucked, and having to fix them

I'm of the opinion that I'm playing a fucking game and I want to have fun, not be crippled for the rest of the match/join a new match just because a game that can hardly be called a simulator at its best has really fucky mechanics.
Wow, I just had a guy wreck his tank because I aimed my gun at him.

To be fair, I've been -that guy- before. Only because I was already just starting a 2 minute repair and figured the guy who shot previously deserved the kill, and not the vulture who found me.

I do that too. Flying around, take a hit to the elevator or some other crippling hit. Usually I just let it crash to the ground in the off chance I can get enough lift with flaps/dihedral, but I still might as well be dead. If I see someone else approaching I'll bail out so the original guy will get the credit.
So, which ammo type should i use in my B-17G?
I've been using universal and armorpiercing. But the only difference i see is that the universal rounds has a higher chance to set the aircraft on fire and the armorpiercing just goes through
I'm the really awful guy who will ram an enemy plane if he knows he's going to explode, it's really, really cheap but it may have been patched out since the last time I played planes.
If my plane is fucked I will kamikaze when possible
This has been posted when it was a new Thing but the narrative adds to it (and makes it watchable all the way through)

First match in the tiger, not only was it another shit team, the first hit that I took (from an 85, surprise surprise) hit my lower plate and it somehow destroyed the turret ring along with the transmission. Ah, the bias in the air.
[editline]29th May 2014[/editline]
Second battle. Turret ring black from the first shot, this time from a 57. What a shitty tank, can't take any hit without losing its ability to aim.

It's even worse for IS-1 tbh. Any turret penetration leads to ammo rack or 2/4 of your crew dead and turret/gun destroyed.

85mm was specifically fielded with the reason "we need something that will counter Tiger" and it was what indeed killed Tiger most of the time
I don't get what else do you expect or ask for
[editline]29th May 2014[/editline]
57mm was same deal, just didn't get used much because it lacked the universal ability to fuck up dug up nests with HE and the AP ammo was expensive.
[editline]29th May 2014[/editline]
ZiS-2 57mm also entered service a year before Tiger so there's no reason why in War Thunders alternate reality of "We cannot use not-self-propelled AT guns" they wouldn't put them onto a T-34 chassis earlier or something.
Third game. "Horizontal turret traverse destroyed! Driver unconscious! Transmission damaged!"
[editline]29th May 2014[/editline]
What the fuck is the point of the Tiger when you can use a Panther? Better armor, gun, mobility and can actually bounce something without the turret going nope.
[editline]29th May 2014[/editline]
Fourth game. Killed another tiger, then got oneshotted by an 85.
Fuck it, just gonna run the prem jagdpanther to get the exp for the real Panther - not gonna touch this garbage with a stick.
Well, the Panther was considered better then the Tiger so.. yah.
Well yes Panther completely blows Tiger out of water in the game and imho Panthers are as well better than King Tigers, too.
[editline]29th May 2014[/editline]
If JagdPanther had respawn it would be probably the best German vehicle in the game.

Do you know what would be the biggest insurance fraud in history?
Insuring your loader.
is t-34 prototype/t-34E worth it?
seems like you get a shitload more if you buy the ace pack on steam
[QUOTE=Private Zoglow;44940462]is t-34 prototype/t-34E worth it?

the prototype is devilishly unfair and the E is also bretty guhd
[editline]29th May 2014[/editline]
if youre torn between those and the ace advanced take the ace pack everyday
y thats why I consider buying one of them but you get like 14000 worth of geagles with ace pack for the same price as prototype
[editline]29th May 2014[/editline]
also bt7 is sick why did I start as german
[editline]29th May 2014[/editline]
holy shit researched t-50 and everything on bt7 with 2 games
If you think the BT7 is great wait until you play the T-50. I regularly bring it out during 3.3/3.7 matches where I lose my KV and SU-122 and proceed to do better.
Then again I do better with the GAZ 72K than I do with the SU=122 so vOv

Pack Value? Couldn't tell you off hand.
T-34 Prototype is literally a copy of the first T-34 (1940?) on the tree with an extra spotlight. That said, the first T-34 gets pretty nice tiering and is easy to play.
The T-34E is unusual. It has more armor on the sides than the front, and it has the same BR as the last T-34 (1942?) which has a better turret. A lot of people play it incorrectly and drive straight at people which is fucking retarded - same armor there as any other T-34. I rather like the way it looks and it gives nice rewards, so there's that. The spaced armor might help against HEAT and HE, but only retards and people with the stubby 75s use HEAT, and 122/152 HE will still probably kill you.
