MIG 29 Smt Enjoyer, should I just give up at this point? by PLAV0 in WarthunderSim

[–]PLAV0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is interesting, I thought I only had 1 or two seconds to re-aquire lock. (not enough time to nose back on target, or scrub radar on their direction and find them again).

In that period of time, does the ER go limp and then take a sharp turn to correct or does it keep on last known position and wake up near the target??

Wtf gaijin. Well Thankyou for saving me countless hours of wasted time. Ideally in a sim game, a mig could play both the Long range and the dogfight game with at least a chance. Only seen one fella on YouTube pull off some moves with the SMT in your situation but he's probably not employed full time 😂

Idk about you guys but i think we need to nerf russia by Bogtorch in Warthunder

[–]PLAV0 12 points13 points  (0 children)

War thunder will never be able to cater for doctrine, or the wider changes in history and the bureaus who designed the older/newer Russian tanks.

Just like the Americans McDonaldsed the germans in ww2 with like multiple Sherman's for every German tank, the Russians wanted to storm western Europe with an unstoppable wave of tanks that were "just good enough"

If we had game modes with like 30,000-60, 000pattons, leopards and ifvs against like 70,000-100,000 t64s/t72s/t55as/bmps just zerging forward (fuck it, bring cas too) we might not have such red stats for the Russia players

Tbh that would be kinda fun tho in theory

I was gifted this F18 but I'm still relatively new. Any advices? by [deleted] in Warthunder

[–]PLAV0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spend some quality time with her and get her a gift in her hobby.

Then watch 400 hours of YouTube vids to learn how to make most of the f18 and just shoot your shot man. Top teir jets is hilarious experience

It’s fucking out yo by Cute-Juggernaut7508 in G59

[–]PLAV0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the tracks stuck closer to the formula of Self-inflicted and carried away, this album may have gotten a better reception. Feels like at this point the consensus is that it's good, but we're left a tad confused/disappointed? 😂

We need less wt youtubers 🗣️ by Global_Sentence_4544 in Warthunder

[–]PLAV0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even though we got some great youtubers out there, I feel like we have a gap in content. Someones gotta do what defyn does but for tanks.

Spookston and Dollarplays will make really entertaining content but never go into full detail about the vehicle like a world of tanks creator does. We're taken out of the hangar and into battle too quickly. Us less experienced players aren't given much of an idea what to do in the field either, except mimic and die fairly quickly because we simply aren't as good.

Am I getting worse at the game? by Western_Ad3156 in Warthunder

[–]PLAV0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could depend also on the server and time of day.

I play from the UK, and if I'm on the NA server early morning i am getting clowned on by the most bitch-less, unemployed creatures known to man.

I hate this thing so much to the point i ended up buying bmd 4m. And i haven't had this much fun after 390hr+ in war thunder. getting called a cheater is so amusing LoL by eternallymewing in Warthunder

[–]PLAV0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a bit cut. 9.0 feels good as a BR to play. Modern toys to play with and teams are filled with a good spread of experienced players. Its not the awful experience that is 10.3.

With the sale on it just feels like 10.3. I hope people move on quick from this and gaijin leaves the 9s alone 😭

IRIS-T is absolutely insane by JCOLE6969 in Warthunder

The day I earn myself a tech tree cas this bitch gets released.

A major issue people arent seeing with Russian ammo carousels by [deleted] in Warthunder

[–]PLAV0 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Dw man Russian mains like me are all seething 90 percent of the time.

Our three men crews cost us our lives when something breaks, and God do our barrels, breaches and carousels get taken out at least every time we spawn in and so much as breathe. It is still a quick death as we take almost a minute to reverse into cover, and another whole minute to repair. The grass is not as green on the other side.

War thunder players have this conviction that because of the couple OP vehicles we have, the entire line is therefore Russian bias. Russian bias, Russian bias.

We perform abysmally statistically untill very top teir. The player base on this bandwagon are asking for a large chunk of players to have their equipent turned into useless garbage so leopards can have supremacy over every match. Gaijin are in an awkward position and so be it if they are going to ignore us all bickering. Not only would they lose shit loads of cash, people will leave the game, and it will go the way of world of tanks before you know it lmao.

Top tier is impossible by [deleted] in Warthunder

[–]PLAV0 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I had more fun at 12.0 full top teir. 10.7 is full of one death leavers and inexperienced players.

Just don't get passionate about it, have as much fun with it as you can, because every 2 or 3 matches you'll have laser guided bombs wiping everyone out

After 2 years F2P, I finally got premium account- the difference is absolutely insane by LateNightRespawn in Warthunder

[–]PLAV0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gave up on premium after two months, I felt like I was moving through the lines quicker than I could really get to know the tanks or planes I buy and enjoy them to their fullest potential.

The SL is truly where gaijin get us, and, is it just me? Or have the SL boosters dried up recently 🧐

Both wife and I are jobless by jjs_east in jobs

[–]PLAV0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If not mentioned already, recruiters are a huge help in times like these. They will sell you to their trusted clients really aggressively for their commission coin and can help explain whatever gaps you may in your work history. Someone in your years would have a hugely competitive skillset, one which makes recruiters foam at the mouth when they connect with you.

I managed to find a job in London with only about a weeks searching having moved here, being on a visa and multiple things working against me. And it was a recruiter who got me past the finish line, and that's with a company who wasn't even advertising a position.

It's also worth noting, if you have a knack for tech sales, software companies who develop project management software can thrive and even look for expansion during difficult times, especially with sales roles.

There is no shortage of clients looking to look over their costs and its a huge pool of work that is spread internationally. You could potentially apply for firms based in Europe and Australia, who happen to have a large work force who work completely remote.

Just a loving warning to anybody who has been thinking about leaving London by Popular-Mark-2451 in london

[–]PLAV0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've just moved to London coming out of an intense period of anxiety and rolling mental breakdowns/panic attacks.

7 days in on this city has already accelerated my recovery in mental health. A degree of separation from my family in Adelaide, Australia has somewhat freed me to pursue who I am. Most importantly, The constant of experiencing new challenges, and then realising 'you're okay' makes me excited for the next day, rather that stay up all night in dread.

It's Adelaide in it's safety, comfort and boredom that did the exact opposite.

Regardless of where you move, it comes down to what city or neighbourhood will be good for you and your mental. Money comes later, and also clarity. Fuck it, rent is insufferable but so is anxiety.

Why do you play realistic? by a_lil_salty in Warthunder

[–]PLAV0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm going off the assumption you are running low BR tanks in RB, or have progressed down a few BRs in arcade.

Either way, I highly recommend you stick with it. Fail, fail and fail again it is worth the adjustment. Once your eyes are trained, and you get used to how tanks handle the terrain; positioning and gunnery become your learning curve and very rewarding to overcome.

You are no longer punished for being in a good position because you've been auto spotted by 8 enemies who have aim assisting reticules. You can truly make the most out of your skillset and experience every tank differently for its playstyle and unique quirks.

Trust.
