I wonder how/if naval forces will play with ground forces, or if itll just be naval / air all the time.
I dunno, maybe I just want a reason to destroy a light attack craft with a FV4005..

A good shot could probably wreck a destroyer, to be honest. 20mm of armour on some of them, and the destroyers themselves 'only' carry 120mm guns themselves, so a 183mm HESH should do some harm.
Tonked with Riller a bit today, this shot turned out pretty nice.

Navy closed beta hit.

And I need a big ol' bright neon strobing sign that says [highlight]GAIJIN TOLD YOU SO[/highlight] because destroyers are boring as fuck. It's all the worst things people whined about with the PT Boat beta (tanks on water holding M1 at one another) made slower, more RNG, and less fun. You can't make realistic capital navy combat and condense it into pseudo-sim 5-40 minute timeframes and have it be fun for anyone without going the full Arcade HP route of World of Warships.

You definitely can, you just can't shove aircraft/tanks into the mode as well
...Which is what Gaijin wants, sadly

Gaijin never had any intention of putting tanks in the same mode, only planes. Too lazy to find the Q&A where they mention this. Planes are even more suicidal with the auto-gunner modes now too. Cargoships are Base AAA on steroids.
just give me the War Thunder dedicated server and ability to change all settings ...
map/mission editor we have already
then i will show you how fun can be with 64+ players (or 256 just hardware scaling issue)

I've been saying it for years, but War Thunder is one good game mode away turning everything that's shit about the game into a great game.

The 50cal is the greatest gun weapon system ever designed.

yep, the worst thing they had dedicated servers before they removed it and put all into theirs cloud
i mean i would try even with theirs servers if i had settings to disable / change / tweak stuff
e.g. i would prefer arcade gamemode
where you can't see playernames of enemy players just plane type
where flightmodel takes parts of the medium difficulty mode
(e.g. you will break apart if damaged and going too fast)
there is so much what could be done by tweaking both arcadish gameplay (for the masses)
and the medium difficulty (i lost track on the names, renamed more than 3 times in past 3 years) game mode
ofc the most difficult simulator too but not w/o major changes how the gamemode is setup
(join in progress, goals, team balancing)
if i had way how setup such test-bed, i would prove to the developers it can be done
hell i would even get the excellent server hardware to prove it
Jesus Chrst, guys, calm down.
I've watched some streams about the new testing phase and it doesn't even play that bad.
It's still in pre-beta, even so, the amount of changes they made is significant.
Remember how tanks looked in the first iteration?
Almost no difference between modes, WoT-tier armor mechanics, no overmatch, no machineguns, no x-ray and armor inspector etc. Just give them some time to iron these things out.

Dive bombing in the A-26B is fun. Great practice on clenchin' the old glutes.
I usually don't bitch about bad teams but this at BR8.0 CARB, an USA+UK match against Germany+Japan, is just something special
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/tsKGypr.png[/IMG]
I've seen bad teams but that bad?!
[vid]https://my.mixtape.moe/trsxlo.webm[/vid]
Just, what.
Also wtf is up with ST-A1's zoom it's ridiculous.
So, now that the ST-A and the M46 have 305mm pen HEAT, that's kinda rad.
What's more rad is the fucking wet towel smack I got to notify me the camouflage requirement update dropped.

The HESH gods favored you this day is what, however do not expect such divine favor in future.
HESH is a cruel and unforgiving mistress.

HESH is a reliable and benevolent mistress. The kind you wake you with a belly rub and some cookies.
You just have to know the armor models well enough to not guide her into cheeky fuckin' 5mm structural steel tool stowage boxes. Looking at you T-10M, you SLAVIC FUCK.
Well I mean, I spawned right at the beginning of that clip, that's my team's spawn. We had control of the point, and people around it, and like 4 enemies spawncamping already.

That's something they have wrong about HESH: it could penetrate thin plates.

Small track on front of the T29 eats HESH up as well, which's annoying.
Although that really does go for any kind of track armor.
I fucking love night battles

Man, they [I][B]really[/B][/I] gotta step up their game for ground night battles
Make it extra dark. Add headlights and searchlights. Fire illumination and whatnot. And since we've got smoke grenades, why not illumination flares as well?

Too hard for babies. Which is why night and rainy battles are so rare. And all the cool maps got stripped from Arcade's rotation (or aren't as prevalent) like Hidden Island. Gotta appeal to that bedrock denominator.
[sp]I distinctly recall a night battle back when the Type 62 was finally out for people who completed the challenge, before it ever had HEAT-FS, and I rolled right over a German team with something like 6+ kills by driving STRAIGHT AT THEM since half of them couldn't seem to see me very well.[/sp]
Decided that I had enough of playing Shermans and Panzer IVs and running circles around people in my M24, so I decided to try the Sturmpanzer II, which I had decided to research simply to get to the Puma
This thing flings nukes everywhere. Reloads faster than the KV-2. Even stock it turns nicely. And the recoil, the [I]recoil[/I]...I've fired rounds just for the sake of watching the Sturmpanzer move back from the recoil. It's beautiful
