How did that guy manage to get killed by himself

I would assume his cannon breach got damaged and an HE shell exploded in the barrel?
The most ridiculous thing about the video is in the end.
Also vdub is fucking magic, I need to turn the quality up more.
[QUOTE=EskillV2;44824031]So i just learned that you can 1 shot a tank by shooting in their barrel. :v:[/QUOTE]
I somehow did that to a panzer iv with an HE shell off my stubby stug.
So the Stug gets MUCH better when you unlock HEAT ammo for it and you begin actually penetrating things. [sp]The Soviet Zis-30 has fucking 110 mm of pen right off the bat, grr[/sp]
Has anyone actually bothered to play the Flakpanzers/Soviet equivalent? Are there even enough planes to get exp off?

This has just made me remember British tanks are going to be hilarious with their 2 pounder's. Also, I wonder what tier the matilda will be.
Karelia is the worst map.
Hey let's just all get killed on this corner and lose all our tickets in the first 90 seconds of the game. Even though one side has a clear advantage on these two corners and has it locked down and just killed us, let's spawn and drive into the killzone again, because we're fuckin' retarded
I never thought i'd see Orkel play warthunder

I've just done some googling on the 2-pounder and wow, it's got pathetic penetration.
Way to lie to me, World of Tanks.
Friendly AI tanks are awesome

Karelia is God awful and really should just be removed. It's extremely tiny and you can literally shoot into each others spawn points. The only good thing about it, is that it's usually over quick. There's no room to do anything in that map other than be stuck in corridors, especially with as many people in the game as there are now.
Unrelated, but one thing I think is very good about the tutorial, is that they emphasize killing the crew. As far as I can tell, killing the crew is what declares a tank as dead. It's how I kill tanks. If it's not a tank I can ammo-rack outright, which is harder to do at low tiers, then I'll just shoot out the crew of the tank, paying close attention to the damage panel to see who is still left alive.
This whole "shoot what's inside the tank, not the tank itself" is what really separates War Thunder from World of Tanks, and I'm pretty sure this is the reason that WoT players have so much trouble with the game. In WoT, all you need to do is penetrate and tank and you'll do damage, but in War Thunder the goal is to hit something specific behind that armor. It's a minor distinction, but it changes everything.
I found out how to keep moving while you repair your tank

I was going to slide down a cliff like I normally do, but I did it early and hit some rocks. I did a complete roll and landed on top of the AI tank. I started my repairs and the tank dragged me where it went at its speed
Also, why do tanks have more than one life. It seems a little silly that you can respawn in Realistic and Simulator battles.

What numbers did you see? And are you thinking of the littlejohn adapter?
[QUOTE=Tsyolin;44824608]Also, why do tanks have more than one life. It seems a little silly that you can respawn in Realistic and Simulator battles.[/QUOTE]
I think it's to make tanks that are easy to one-shot but well armed balanced compared to their heavy tank cousins.
Tiger I's only get one life, I know that much
[QUOTE=TheTalon;44824657]Tiger I's only get one life, I know that much[/QUOTE]
Yeah, all heavy tanks only get one.
Holy fuck the CL13 is retarded fast
Anyone know if you get the steam advanced pack, but already have the two planes, will you get refunded for them or just get the gold and premium in the pack

I was looking at this webpage:[url]http://tankarchives.blogspot.ru/2013/04/british-guns-vs-german-tanks.html[/url]

when i bought it a long time ago i got no form of refund, you just get the gold and premium but iirc its totally worth it just for those two

Yah, steam packs are real money savers in warthunder.
severe lack of soviet tonk players christ
Fuck T-50s. They are so annoying to fight with low tier germans.

Revenge for shermans

Stubby HEAT for glorious victory.
So I was driving along on kursk, entered the control panel while the tank kept driving. Then suddenly the tank stops, due to no obstruction or input from me. I tried suiciding by holding J, still couldn't move. Jumped in another match and now I still can't move.
[editline]fucking shit [/editline]
doesn't even work after restart
[editline]fucking shit [/editline]
apparently had to bind the gear buttons and do shit there
Anyone know why my userskin won't update? I've made the template, edited it, selected it, and refreshed it. No difference on the tank.

the vast majority of soviet tonks are so vastly inferior to their german counterparts that they arent even remotely fun to play (especially in RB)

It's funny because this was an issue for the last month on the dev server and they didn't touch it. It's funnier because the bailing-out-to-deny-kill thing has been in since day 1 of the CBT and it isn't fixed.
obvious exceptions being the T-50, T-34 Prototype, Zis-30

well see that was the issue but the forums were still somehow full of wehraboos bitching that Germans tanks weren't OP enough so the issue was more or less ignored in the CBT
hopefully now that they have the numbers showing that no one wants to play the shitty soviet tanks, and that its making for awful matchmaking times, they will change their tune
