So. The round after watching that, I thought of two things to tell you.
A: I'd fucking cry if all that happened without recording software.
B: That's probably impossible with a TD.
Guess what fucking happens.
I shoot down a IL2 using a STUG [I]while repairing my tracks[/I]
And I don't record it.

You know... uh.. hmm..
There are these things.. what are they called..
Oh yes! [B][U]Replays[/U][/B]! Menu, top left in hanger. You can watch your last 10 matches. The Ground Forces ones are unstable and will sometimes lock up in a specific spot every time, but the air ones are mostly solid. You can also rename them to save them - but they'll stop functioning after any major update.
Hope yours is still there, mate.

Tried. After my stug sliding about for a while, all I see is the desert. Probably the first and last time I'll use replays.

Well shit, sorry. I had a match where my T-50 was going 50kph or so, rammed a T-34, and exploded killing us both. It freezes, every time, about 4m from impact. Air replays still work well, if you ever need to use them.
I think matchmaking just actually shat itself for me
running a 4.5 BR setup
end up in a game with 3 B24's, a guy with shinden kais, and then these two poor guys who were 1.0's with only starter peashooters
what is going on
24/70
I've never truly appreciated how long the fucking matches are until now.
If each match takes you fifteen minutes, that's 18 fucking hours of gameplay.
If each match (MM included) takes five, that's still 6 straight hours.
I would love a Mustang done up in these RCAF colours

I need to learn how to texture.
And also unlock a Mustang.
Vids of tanks shooting down planes are quickly becoming the new cod 720 noscope.
Though Doom14 gets off with good music choices, so there is that.

tbh MG:R music is a pretty shit choice for this type of video and I'm riding that joke train way too late.
I promise not to go edgy in the future. I was honestly thinking about treating it was one of those ironic killstreak videos with the shaking camera and little kid screaming, but I didn't have the time or know-how. :v:
Be sure to use a skrillex song
War Thunder is one of the few games you can punish your teammates and get away with it :v:

This guy spent the entire round trying to hit two AAA guns in arcade.
Finally got the 70 plane kills after much ramming from teammates and wing tearing from friendly fire as always, it's done. Now I can go back to tanks and get the other 30 50% activity things. Wanted to do it with AAA in RB battles but was taking too long.
if your friends ask you what war thunder is like, just tell them:

I often browse the net, read shit, or watch netflix while I play because it alt-tabs so well and requires so little brainpower most of the time.
Ughghghghghhhhhhhhh
I feel like I understand the motions and maneuvers and tactics of flying a plane, and I'm using a Ki-43 if it's of any help, but for fucks sake [U]I cannot shoot for my life[/U]. I get all these nice BnZ lineups and I've been abusing the "shoot, climb-fly away, and come back" shit, but I've gotten like next to no kills. I might take to just playing in-cockpit while gunning because the 3rd person shooting just isn't intuitive for me.
23 minute queue time in the Panther, and counting.
This tank really was worth unlocking.

Fuck anything past 4.0 in Ground Forces. The balance is shit, the matches take forever to get into, and they're just not satisfying.
[QUOTE=Mbbird;45027047]Ughghghghghhhhhhhhh.[/QUOTE]
I can rarely hit shit unless I zoom in during Boom and Zooms. Make sure you have an easy key bound to it and try it before first person.
Man I suck at RB, I can't seem to get a jump on people and it seems that my team and enemies always outclimb me so I end up getting dove on or when I do get the chance to dive the enemy always manages to outrun me because they have an energy advantage. Am I flying wrong or something?

War Thunder crashes every single time I alt-tab.
The wait is suffering
[QUOTE=Lone Wolf807;45027088]Am I flying wrong or something?[/QUOTE]
This is what I said for the longest time when I was new to RB.
Tips:
1. Climb to the side, not forward.
2. Try to let your team engage first if you're not confident.
3. Energy isn't always everything, but it usually is.
4. Some match ups are gonna suck, some planes are gonna be better than others, some matches won't be won.
Getting a single air kill means you're even in RB, so don't sweat it.

Full-windowed, right? If yes, fuck, that sucks.

I ran out of ammo shooting the last PBY, so I tried landing at the airfield since the Ki-61 isn't carrier capable, but it didn't let me rearm, so I went off to find this PBY, who then became the last enemy plane, and now he's gone. So the enemy is capturing because we don't have very many ground units at all and the PBY is going to win it for his team by flying off to China.

Also it's a PS3 player lol.

Oh jk, the ground units are dying to nothing, so...neither team is going to win ever.
I GAINED OVER ONE THOUSAND CREW POINTS FROM SHITTING IT UP IN MY WIRRAWAY FOR THIS 70 MATCHES THING

Any plane can repair/rearm and any plane can land on a carrier. It's just not easy. Downright suicidal in big bombers, but it's been done.

That pleases me something fierce just to look at.
I have no single crew past about level 700 or so, since I level them mostly even. So every crew is extremely skilled, but none are maxed across the board.

Btw holy shit Shibbey, thank you for writing that big thing up about Japanese craft. I'd only got up to the Ki-43 before but I'm loving the tree so far.

oh wow, you're actually right... This shit is gonna take a while!
Once I get the air kills done, I'm going to just do tier 1 with US planes on arcade. Arcade goes MUCH faster than realistic, so 5 minutes per battle won't actually be unreasonable.
[QUOTE=oakman26;45027961]I have a problem.
If my artillery isn't reloaded and then I enter the view, I can't get out of the view until artillery is reloaded and I fire it.

Don't you just press 5 again?
Why is tier III arcade ground forces so empty? 5vs5 is no fun.
