[QUOTE=Gunar;52024937]Probably because there is a glut of 5.7 to 6.7 tanks around due to the retarded new premiums they've released, combined with perennial problems with Tiger II spam and goofy bullshit tanks that exist past 7.0.[/QUOTE]
I feel like it's just a bunch of people with T-54s and IS-4s abusing the current br of the IS-6 and then the horde of retards that own the premium Tiger II filling in the rest of the team roster (Seriously, arcade matches are like 80% ger/rus in the 6.7 range)
But fighting an IS-6 followed by either T-54s or IS-3/4s is just painful when I'm trying to grind the hell that is American APCR
So i've done the math and I have reason to believe that the IL2 (Later war versions with the gunner) were produced with oil radiators made from recycled pasta strainers coated in oil-soluble liner.
[sp]Really though, in RB if you get sprayed you can pretty much guarantee an oil leak regardless of the damage. The weird part though is that it's super all over the place in terms of how long you have until you're out. Sometimes I'll get minimal damage with a near instant leak out while other times I'll get heavy damage and have several minutes of oil left.[/sp]

Whenever I play the 1942 you can swear on your life that i am a menace and will head on anybody.
Then I get buzzed in the ass and get annihilated into next century.

I've tried that tactic in WT (and wrote it into a fairly lengthy soviet ground attack guide I made) and the effectiveness (even if just mentally speaking) is incredible. [B][U]NOTHING[/U][/B] makes a fighter in RB shit themselves harder than a ground attacker going head on with them.

For as slow as the il 2 is, its simply amazing. The 23 mils just shred planes to peices. I've won dogfights I'd have never won in an equal or better fighter plane.
Air dominance at its best.

Ah yes, [I]perfectly[/I] poor.
Four tanks remaining in this fucking game and then I will have them all. About seven planes too.

Why do the Steam reviews of this say the game will give you malware, unless you disable some exe in firewall rules?
Is this a rumour or is Gaijin really that scummy..
Been wanting to play this for a while now since they deleted my main account (because I got hacked). IMO and unfair decision, however I am defo not getting back into this if they are installing malware through ("random.exe")

The thing known as "gjagent.exe" is by definition, """""""malware" """"". But as far as I'm aware it's more statistics and game info mining.
I'd really think nothing of it, when I looked up this topic, I found a bunch of people spouting nonsense, calling it malware because you can't delete it. (hint: you can totally disable it)
The gjagent.exe is just an auto-updater that runs in the background and is unfortunately enabled by default and runs on startup. You can disable it in about two seconds.
Calling it malware is just alarmism from technologically inept players who never bothered to look at the launcher options.

Nearly everything up to Era IV is spaded. I refuse to do Era V vehicles for my own sanity.
A few exclusions exist also for sanity sake and after the Lancaster I set back my RB winrate by like 5% at one point. For tanks, it's Era IV SPAAs (Coelian, Duster) or vehicles in a tree that's done and wouldn't get the snazzy RP bonuses (29K, T34.)
With planes, it's mostly just: [I]"fucking strategic fucking bomber where all you fucking do is fucking press the fucking space button and fucking die."[/I]

I almost feel bad for buying into the T29, but I can't believe they put this tank at 6.7 and thought that was okay

By default the "launcher" will run on computer startup, in the background, and auto-update.
As well as using you as a seedbox. Yeah. 100% in the background too.
You can disable the above behavior in the launcher, but it will occasionally turn itself back on, usually during updates.
[QUOTE=scout1;52034093]As well as using you as a seedbox. Yeah. 100% in the background too.[/QUOTE]
Which is what the launcher already does and has an option to turn off. Not sure if that affects gjagent or not.
Once again, it's scary to players who never looked through the launcher go "buh my bandwidth is all going somewhere!! VIRUS!!!!" Or, people on Reddit going "I COULDN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO DISABLE OR UNINSTALL SO IT'S MALWARE."
I've also never had mine turn itself back on across two computers, three installations, and every update without entirely reinstalling the game. The only thing malicious here is that it is enabled by default, which is a mistake imo.
You seriously just do this:

If the game re-ticks autoupdate, nuke the launcher and your config files and start over. This is like leaving auto-flaps on and claiming War Thunder secretly has a malicious keylogger/hijacker that is trying to mess up your gameplay sessions.

Holy shit, modern MBTs playable for April Fools, hold me guys.

Yeah, if a process just starts itself in the background and chews through all your bandwith with 0 indication, just, you know, magically figure that out.
Oh man if this shit is playable in April Fools I'm gonna be rock hard not gonna lie.
lol Nice try ISIS.

Now why would they make this... "Tech" last time it was boats and actually a alpha test of the physics and mechanics...
Reactive armour test?

Helicopter test maybe?
I bet the next article is the AH-64.
Really hoping silently that they aren't joking and that this is just an alpha test in disguise.

I'd like to think so too, although they have put effort into things before that were never used again. The ponies, the mechs, the giant snail, the pirate ships.
I still want them to make the earlier april fools' events available in custom battles.
