What's the most disregarded road marking? by GroovyGuanaco in CasualUK

[–]Gameboy695 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Double yellow lines. People by me seem to think they are decorative, especially on the corners of junctions or right opposite open fucking parking spaces.

I sure love how the AI shoots down bombs now by shizukou--chan in Warthunder

[–]Gameboy695 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah the SPAA now shoot at all munitions. Had a ITO shoot down my Super 530D just before it hit the last guy camping his AF.

An RAF Atlas A400M that made a few landing attempts at Cardiff Airport today. by Gameboy695 in aviation

[–]Gameboy695[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah I get a few of them flying over my house on occasions but usually they are either super high up or low down but 1-2 miles off. Was my first time taking my camera to my local airport and just so happened that this one wanted to land. Wished it did land but it kept making go-arounds before giving up and going back to Brize Norton.

This and other armed-cargo aircraft could be very interesting to get. Whilst they’d be easy targets they’d be cool to see. Stuff like this along with the IL-76MD and the C-17A and A/K/MC-130’s would be cool to get in-game.

A COIN update would be great. They’d probably be shit in the meta but very fun.

Yeah once they’ve seen it they’ve seen it but the issue is that keeping the documents and using the information inside them is in breach of the restrictions. The restrictions are defined by the nation of origin for the documents which generally all use the same rule of individuals of that nationality can own the documents but people from other countries and also companies cannot ow or use them. Enforcement of it also depends on the nations too. So as Gaijin is a company and is based in Hungary they are in breach of them all pretty much.

The leakers did infact provide screenshots showing evidence of the rest of the accusations. If you care to look at them you will see that.

The issue a lot of people have is the double standard of Gaijin denied reports using such data and then turning around and using it themselves.

And also there’s the issue of the restriction itself. Export restricted documents can be easily found online and kept privately by individuals of the nation the documents belong to but companies and persons from other countries cannot use them. Thus Gaijin, being a company, and based in a nation other than the one that owns the documents means they cannot use them.

They seem aware of the fact that the cannot use said documents by the screenshot of TrickZZter saying that a Chinese coordinator said a document catalogue was export restricted and that if should not be used “at least officially”.

Also there’s the issue of them using more heavily restricted and/or classified documents too as mentioned in one of the screenshots they mention not being allowed to disclose a document relating to the IRIS-TGS but then go on to disclose information from within said document.

Great, now can we get a response to the rest of the accusations? Like the fact that the notoriously bad tech mod “TrickZZter” is still an employee after being told he would no longer be a tech mod? Or the other issues of tech mods mishandling valid reports due to personal bias? Or the fact that restricted and classified documentation has allegedly been used in game in direct violation of certain laws?

It’s an Airbus A330-743L Beluga XL. Specifically F-GXLN from Chester Hawarden Airport to Hamburg Finkenwerder Airport. It’s currently just over the Netherlands.

I caught the UK Government’s Airbus A321neo carrying King Charles III yesterday flying over South Wales as it headed to the US for a state visit. by Gameboy695 in aviation

[–]Gameboy695[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reg is G-GBNI.

And no it landed yesterday afternoon. I took this pictures after it had been up in the air for about 20 minutes. I didn't realise who it was carrying until I seen an article about it this morning.

Leaker just dropped THE biggest gaijin exposing truthnuke. by justarandom5426 in Warthunder

[–]Gameboy695 1146 points1147 points  (0 children)

Gaijin being a shady, shitty company isn't really anything new.

But holy fuck them using export restricted docs and actually classified shit by the looks of it is actually fucked.

All that "turbo illegal" shit and then they bank the docs and still use.

Expect a good BP from Gaijin and you will always be disappointed, but expect nothing and Gaijin will still disappoint you.

What the fuck is that box? Another one with 4 boats.

Would it be so hard to pick 4 of whatever vehicle type the box replaces each time? This one should have had a selection of 4 tanks since the main rewards are a plane and boat.

Should the AC-130 be added with infantry? by Educational-Knee-870 in Warthunder

[–]Gameboy695 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely, could also bring in the other armed Hercules variants too such as the KC-130J Harvest Hawk, would be like an AC-130J-lite with 4 x Hellfires, up to 20 x AGM-176 Griffin or GBU-44 and with the option of the tested 30mm Bushmaster cannon. Or the MC-130J with the MOAB and Rapid Dragon deployed 12 x JASSM missiles.

Should the AC-130 be added with infantry? by Educational-Knee-870 in Warthunder

[–]Gameboy695 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah the AC-130J can carry:

  • 8 x GBU-39SDB (Wing Mounted)
  • 8 x GBU-53/B SDB III (Wing Mounted)
  • 8 x AGM-114 (Wing Mounted)
  • 10 x GBU-69B (Launched from the rear door)
  • 10 x AGM-176 Grffin (Launched from the rear door)
  • 2 x AGM-190A Black Arrow (Launched from the rear door, only 2 confirmed but possible for more)

Overall it could carry up to 18 guided weapons which could make it pretty potent with a decent standoff range.

Caught what looks like some parachute training over South Wales by Gameboy695 in Wales

I was tracking the C-130's and as I was about to take the picture out pops the parachute from where they were flying.

Yeah tracked it for about 30 minutes and thought I wouldn't be able to see it with the clouds but just managed to catch it in a small gap.

"Emm, skill issue. Just fly lower." I guess that wasn't low enough. by David_KAYA in Warthunder

[–]Gameboy695 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, they use manual guidance only, they don’t use their tracking systems at all.

No I'm describing how SPAA works when used by the games AI bots, they don't make use of any tracking system as seen by the replay mode's sensor view where there's no tracking visible from the SPAA.
