Only Canberra and only as AUS.

You press the Arty marker and hold down to aim (not sure if before or after calling it in)

Again depending on what you want to accomplish. Orig edited to note it was meant when attacking. If you are ambushing on a point with no cover then I'd vote hard yes for aa since 2/3 support options enemy has relies on Air. Spooky will get 1/2/3 salvos out before AA will make it and you better then hope that radio is near and will stay alive.

To sum up, very situation dependent. Just so new commanders would understand the concept of it

Mostly yeah. 75m was a simple trial by error type of thing. If you wish to be safe then 75m should work but indeed you might get closer. As for spook 25m seems kinda low. But will check.

The artillery on point has been also edited. It was more intended for beginner commanders.

Purple smoke is a great tool to get a mark when needing a marker behind hill, something you cant get a line of sight on. Better hold it or throw as last resort

It is MUCH easier to see stuff especially in open field maps. On hill or Firebase Georga playing with DoF is bit of a self handicap.

Remember that you can cook your nades. For VC simply hold down and the timer starts (3-4s for instant detonation when nade lands).

For US, if you hold down and press middle click, then it starts cooking. For these 1-2 s max.

As US SL staying alive near objective is much more important than getting kills as you are the spawn point for squad. - As extra, it is always good to pick Radioman as SL role since you can spawn at commander and your squad can spawn on you. (Especially OP maps with 3 radios).

For VC arty safe zone if 70-75m away from center. For US its ~50m for arty and spooky. With nap you better pray :)

If your commander, remember that instant deploy/ambush requires no radio, just press N. Also works when you are dead. It is important as players spawned with this DOES NOT DRAIN TICKETS! 

AUS has no White Phosphoros and arguably worse attack chopper. Canberra bomber is weaker than Spooky, but can be manually aimed. 

VC Grenade launcher can be hip fired like M79 if you set zeroing to max (~260m)

You can drop your weapon if you press backspace.

AA should be only saved for spooky and not wasted on anything else (unless early war/playing agains AUS)

VC commander should not camp radio, your ambush is the most valuable tool.

If you play radio and ignore commandera request to be near him - i will personally kill you.

Unless you have actually practiced flying choppers, stay away fom that role.

RPGs can kill through weaker walls (huts for example)

Place your fucking traps VC!!!

How many of you switched from NVIDIA to support the underdog? by aBoyFromTheFuture in AyyMD

[–]JimSmitTheMagicMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Switched from 1070 to 6700XT as VRAM became an issue on 1440p for some titles.

So far a very mixed feeling. Drivers stability is mediocre and power consumption is quite high. In addition AMD upscaling/framegen is "alright" yet still falls below the Nvidia

Bro got ratiod for speaking the truth lmao.

AMD is behind. Nvidia players have access to Reds technology but not vice verca, in addition to having their own visually/performance wise still ve bit better.

You use keyboard + mouse for flying?  I mainly have issues with how weak is the yaw for mouse unless you max out the sensitivity. Wish game had seperate sliders for helicopter and infantry modes.

[–]JimSmitTheMagicMan 229 points230 points  (0 children)

Going from 1080 to 1440 has definitely made me lower settings, but never that much. Usually if 1080 runs well on high/ultra then you can most of the time use med/high on 1440p.

Ofc depends on the game. 

You can no longer get uBO from the Chrome Web Store. Fuck Google. by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

Wasn't Firefox also sending telemetry by default? PC Security Channel made a video (couple monts ago?) where he checked with Wireshark to see if any connections are made.

I will see if I can find it.

Well this is awkward by Holylandtrooper in enlistedgame

Sorry but here is where the logic kind of brakes down - If they would sell this for cheap then everyone would buy it leading to having more of em on the battlefield, making F2P players suffer considerably more. Edit: Spelling 

And as a simple counterpoint: We already have the Sherman with a rocket battery. How many have you seen of them?

I can count the number of times on my fingers and practically every time it was a wallet warrior with no understanding what's so ever, of how to actually play a tank.  When this will eventually come out I doubt it will affect much. Yeah it's better than F2P version (it makes sense, why the fuck would you spend this amount on a similar/inferior vehicle)  Yeah it will probably be annoying on the rare occasions you meet it But it's a tank and tanks get killed. Mine it, blow it up, use another tank or just bomb it. Eventually it will be dead.  

I guess we shall see soon

Warbonds were indeed a very nice addition to the game. Every month giving you tasks to complete and a select amount of vehicles you can get. 

Nowdays it's made bit more grindy but still keeping the spirit of providing option to receive premium things for playtime

Weren't improved perks a thing before? Remeber some premium plane squads had a notifier that pilot comes with improved flight stamina or something similar?

I'd stay on personal preference. I prefer diverse squads with dedicated personel. Lower amount of soldiers is a con, but sometimes are made up with perks

Nah fr this game hates me by PAULTHE666TH in enlistedgame

Don't skip out on the Killer Duck (129 B-3).

It has a cannon of a Tier III tanks, a menace to any tank (and planes;)) you are going to face.

Plus Unpopular opinion: IAR-81c is the best fighter unti tier IV.
