[sp]I still lost that match because I suffer from a bad case of terrible-team syndrome :-([/sp]
Why Germany loses:
Instead of combatting the IL-2 swarms with an actual interceptor like the 109 series, or a Focke-Wulf, either of which can easily destroy an IL-2 with minimum effort, they take a fucking flak truck that cannot contribute to the land battle at all, sit in spawn, and get their shit bombed out by an IL-4 that's too high up for them to actually shoot.

I always get the teams of 109-F2s that only ever go after tanks and get taken down by said IL-2 swarms. One of the people I regularly fly with constantly complains about how the IL-2 is overpowered now :v:

I'll fly F-2s and shoot down IL-2s but more often than not, I have to contend with yaks. My other problem is that the 15mm with AP belts doesnt seem to kill player tanks; it'll give me hit notifications, but thats about it.

How
How even
Unless you're trying to turnfight an IL2 in a 109 (And why oh why would you ever do that jesus) they don't have a chance in hell
You've got better guns, you're faster, and you can actually climb. Hell compared to the rest of their planes the IL2 is actually kind of goddamn reasonable as far as russians go
I just lost every match I had today, I hate weekend players so goddamn much :'-(
[QUOTE=Timezbrick;44969133]I just lost every match I had today, I hate weekend players so goddamn much :'-([/QUOTE]
I don't notice it during any time, and I stop blaming everything except the matchmaker itself.
I mean War Thunder's been more open about theirs being rigged than World of Tanks was - but god damn if rigged MM just isn't shit all around. Oh-fucking-no, I've been winning too much by tugging uncooperative potatoes to victory - increase my battle rating some more why don'tcha. I've already been having ~so much fun~ fighting 5.0 shit in my 4.0 tanks.
I really have planes I like and I do good with, Like with the video I posted but my team who isn't doing shit on any of the maps are responsible for losing, whenever I get groundstrike I bomb the bases and vehicles and when I run out of bombers I shoot players down who harass my base/ground forces while the rest of my team sees it as a big TDM with no objective except for a few
Turning an airfield domination game around in the final seconds by putting your flaming plane down is a great feeling. I've won 3 games in the past two days doing that.

I've lost Ground Strike missions with ~30 ground kills before purely because no one else has more than 1.
I think the worst is when I lost a low tier ground strike mission after personally strafing 38 ground targets with a plane that only had two .50 caliber guns.
The Spit IX is an interesting machine.
I was diving on an La-5 that I swatted away from the tail of an ally when I notice more planes behind me.
P-39 on my six? No problem, I'll just swing a hard right and he won't be able to follow me.....
...Except there is an I-16 on my six now and I have low airspeed. :suicide:
I don't get it. What would be the proper thing to do in that scenario?

I can't imagine how horrifying jet bombers will be against tier 5 tanks.
So pleasant to just go back to garage every time the gun is broken in RB. Amazing mechanics.

Turn hard enough to get away from the P-39 while being fast enough to avoid the I-16.

[QUOTE=SataniX;44971663]How?[/QUOTE]
I'm gonna condense this extremely, but:
Find/Make a generic fly-a-plane mission in the CDK; which requires you to own a plane.
Load it up in War Thunder/CDK at the same time.
Once you're in-mission in War Thunder, edit the starting plane in the CDK to anything you want.
(Do not choose planes that give the console errors or don't display 3D Models if you enable them.)
In War Thunder, RESET the mission while in it, don't back out. It should load you up in the plane.
You have to have a sort of basic grasp of the CDK to do any of this. You can't just up and learn it instantly.

Could you do this and change the player to a tank using the "Tank models" entity as a player?

[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;44972358]I thought 1951 is the one we have available right now?[/QUOTE]
I'm a dumb. I fixed it on my /wtg/ post too - 1947 and 1949 are the missing ones. We have the 1951 one.
[QUOTE=C0MMUNIZT;44972049]Could you do this and change the player to a tank using the "Tank models" entity as a player?[/QUOTE]
I tried, trust me. That's how I got a look at the strings - but user missions currently require the player to be in an aircraft.
A lot of those tank strings have missing or placeholder models, too. I think the Panzer IV L/70A is the only "new" one recently with an actual finished model.
[QUOTE=Shibbey;44972460]More important: Can you change a player to a tank while they are 10km up in the air?[/QUOTE]
The second they enable tank-based custom missions, I'll try. :v:

Just got out of a mixed battle on Ash River playing with an IFAPer by the name of "OPERATORchan", I believe. Who is that? I was going to ask in chat after the game but it crashed when the post-battle results page appeared.
