had my first twenty-kill game in AB, double the score of the other team's #1 cleaning up with the 1.7 mig and zhukovsky is all i really want out of this game. i can't get a hang of anything beyond the 3.7 german 109 and i've researched all six factions into the 3's and 4's

What about RB? While I love my low-BR fighter games, in RB I prefer long bomber games. In anything beyond 2.3BR, it's hard to get a bomber to live through one payload run, and I always seem to get scoped if I climb in circles instead of heading immediately toward a target. Also bombing units in RB sucks, how do I get more accurate with things that are moving?

I love the 20mm on that plane. It's hilarious. Blow off a bomber's wing, who cares

boats are way more fun than expected, but leveling the brits is a slog, even through the 1.7's. when do they get good? i HATE small-caliber machine guns, they don't do anything

Getting past the fairmile a's potato gin is the hard part. I can't even improve it! I do prefer manning the big guns and letting the ai swat away planes. American 2.0 and 2.3 are great and I'm loving the German boot-130 that's rated at 1.7, it's extremely op edit gun, but it's an extremely british typo so I'm leaving it i say swears online fucked around with this message at 03:41 on Apr 8, 2019 |

Unoriginality posted:The Brits may get better, but they never get good enough to justify the investment. They've solidly got the third best lineup for almost every BR/type. empire of the sea my rear end. who's considered worst? my least researched faction has been the ussr and i cannot wait to get the BMO. i've snuck up on several and they just slowly turn around and blast me to bits. since i'm researching all the tiers i'll likely never go beyond 4.0 in any of them edit oh yeah, early-game russian boats may seem overpowered to me because of my crew level 31 zhukovsky. i can clear the whole sky in a few minutes in that thing, and then have open waters for my boats and others to win the match zipping around in the g5 is hilarious, i've even gotten a couple ram kills i say swears online fucked around with this message at 05:05 on Apr 8, 2019 |

NoNotTheMindProbe posted:Assembling the plane isn't quite as bad as I thought it would be as if a section isn't damaged you don't have to disassemble it, and you can get random drops of undamaged sections. I just got a random drop of an undamaged weapon system which is 1/5 or so of an entire plane. i've never been a lootbox person and this is the first time in my life having to give a poo poo about what's in there. i was surprised at the first place extra lootbox since it seemed really good (in my mind i was giving all the options an equal chance to be true) but nope lol. i think seven lootboxes total, 8 mechanic parts. last night i broke down and actually tried to put money on my account. instead of a credit card, they want me to go to a seven-eleven and show my phone to the clerk. cleared that delusion up super fast edit my lootbox grind right now is the lowest i possibly can, 1.7BR with my mig-3-15 and my zhukovsky, maybe a bb1 if i need it. if i play at higher tiers i most likely wouldn't get first place very often at all, but do the lootbox drop rates get better since the games last longer? i say swears online fucked around with this message at 04:03 on Apr 14, 2019 |

the mig-3-15 is a low-BR tier II plane. i'm getting boxes, but after now 9 boxes open i have 10 parts, all 1x and one 2x drop. so if i did some giant 30 minute RB game i'd get three boxes at least?

Nickiepoo posted:I mean, 'game-as-service' runs event designed to get users to interface with its monetization systems isn't exactly a spicy-hot take so much as 'loving expected duh'. yeah it's blindingly obvious what's going on, which makes it worse. trying to earn the red plane isn't even fun, and actually makes me want to play less because i'll be pressured to shoot for first place. at least immerse me in the experience, idiots. they'd probably earn more money that way

started a new bf109 4.7 plane, popped a huge boost and just did wide, low arcs around the fringes of the map. ended up with sixteen ai kills and finished out the whole mod set in one game except for rockets and upgraded 7mm

mllaneza posted:The Italian boats are in ! Their Reserve boat has useful firepower ! It can actually sink boats ! Its 20mm is a little more accurate than the IJN Reserve boat, and does real damage when you get hits. It has a tiny clip though, but at least the reload is quick. it's fun and real fast, like a little beefier g5. great start to the tree. my win rate on italy is super high and that's how i'm funding my research; instead of direct kills i'll use the reserve boat to cap the far points. i can cap point A or C on an end of a map and tie up 2-3 boats, popping smoke and using my conveniently rear-mounted gun to warn people off. this and the special g5 with the 20mm are the only good 1.0 boats i got up to the boats that start to have double those 20mm guns and they actually wreck, even at ~1.6km. excited to see more

I said come in! posted:I suck at airplanes in War Thunder, but also USSR planes just seem to be the worst of the nations? I get completely wiped out against American, British, and German planes especially, these three nations seem to have planes that are just far and away superior in every single way to USSR. I am already very deep into the USSR plane tree, tier 5 and 6 for the fighters. Did I make a bad choice? ussr seems to be for people with really good aim. small guns but center-mounted, boom and zoom 100kmph faster than your opponent

was in a ~2.7 naval arcade match when i noticed the last spawn point was far out so i just dove into my italian 1.0 to speed out to it, but i spawned right behind an SF40 Leichte as my squadmate and rammed its rear end. i noticed we maintained 49kmph so i stuck with him. i could never aim my gun or fire my torpedoes but we went past the midpoint of the map and he cleaned up. a bomber took us both out once we were at the opposing spawn but lmfao by then it's too late

Hegel Exercises posted:how to the gently caress do you not waste your time in ARB with stock planes? i'm at the point where i need to do them to advance and battle mode in this garbage loving game is the loving worst. love to spend 30 minutes of my time for 200 xp. really gonna take a while to unlock the poo poo you need for the plane not to be a piece of poo poo YF-23 posted:By far the easiest way to grind planes is to kill other players in air realistic. Nothing complicated about it. when i have a brand new jank-rear end plane and i'm not confident i can kill another player, i'll stay at ground level and do a giant arc around to the enemy ground unit line and snipe AAA, usually worth 1-2 modifications per match

A friend and I racked up some wins last night and I got the warning about "if you had premium you'd get this many lions!" so after seven years I finally bit the bullet and bought a month of premium, thinking I'd get the rewards for that day. Was this a bait-and-switch? My lions didn't go up at all.
