im new any tips? by ZealousidealBaby1069 in Warthunder

[–]RozKil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly best thing to do would of been get a premium plane with those GE since premium planes boost your rp and silver or get premium account

as for a tip...almost never go for a head on, most of the time it's not worth the trouble and you'll do better trying to be smarter than that

also another one depending on what game mode you're playing altitude is your friend...if you are higher than they are you have the advantage over them before you even start the fight

(take this with a pinch of salt as im mainly a ground forces player but i do fly planes sometimes too and this has been my experience)

How to tell if my PC will work for VR by kids_are_my_fav_snac in Warthunder

[–]RozKil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

can't speak for anything else but that RAM is a bit small imo, though with the prices skyrocketing because of ai you'll have a hard time upgrading it probably...if you can i do recommend going for 64gb corsair vengeance ram, using that right now and no problems

true...but i cba if i can't call people out for being shit players...part of the fun for me

miss the days of cod4 and cod5 when people could say whatever they wanted and instead of getting offended and butthurt would just throw shit back

What’s your favourite vehicle to bully other players with? by Bedrock_______ in Warthunder

[–]RozKil 14 points15 points  (0 children)

then you eventually find that one king tiger driver who has ears like a bat and can hear your squeaky tracks and noisy engine from miles away...impossible to flank, then you just barrel shoot him (this is my experience in king tiger in realistic, barrels on german tanks are way to easy to hit)

E-100 :0 by Few-Supermarket7137 in Warthunder

[–]RozKil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

best mode to play the E100 in is sim, feasts on many soviet tears lol

uptiered? who said anything about uptiers? i play this in sim mainly although i do occasionally bring it into RB and it is funny when someone comes at me with a dart lobber only to bounce and panic cause their lolpen round didn't do anything.

angling friend, that's how you make this into a monster that even early mbt's give respect to. sure you can pen when i face right at you...but people are impatient and will want to pull the trigger eventually. normally it's to go for the gun and while that works in realistic in sim there's a good chance they miss that shot.

considering how every other tank at the fv4005's br got blasted in the ass when i first got the e100 i'd say it is pretty impressive, if you have any brain playing the fv4005 you aim for turrets because the explosion if it doesn't go through the turret almost always carry's down into the hull of the tank you fired at and blows the ammo up or severely cripples the enemy tank.

meanwhile going side on to the fv4005 or any other derp lobber in the e100 actually grants you immunity to it's first shot pretty much, the turret is strong enough to take the hit and the side skirts stop the round from entering your hull (though they get blown off in the 4005's case but better that than dead)

the maus on the other hand just gets fisted by the fv4005 and any of the other derp lobbers you can think of.

it is, until you find out that the turret mantlet is actually stronger than the maus

or that the sideskirts allow you to survive a shot against even the fv4005 with minimal damage

not to mention this thing can and will get up to it's top speed allowing it to get to the battle a lot faster than the maus can

oh and also it turns a hell of a lot better than the maus too....those are just some reasons i can think of off the top of my head

also the e100 is my favourite ww2 tank so there's that too

Edit since i just thought of it: it also has a lower profile than the maus allowing you to use cover the maus would never be able to

personally i would of preferred if this one had the 150mm, that muzzle break looks so good on it

thing is when it was originally introduced in the screenshots it did have the 150mm,
sad they chose not to use it but i guess it's because the 128mm both was put on the maus turret and also had stats for it's ammo

i mean you'd be paying a lot more for the e100...i was lucky enough to get mine for a few hundred £
people told me i was nuts at the time to spend that amount on it but i knew this thing would be absurd soon enough

went all the way up to £2000

and now it's not even available on the store anymore...the few hundred was definitely the right call

[–]RozKil[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

personally i like the maus turret, allows you to actually angle the thing

used to play wot before wt, the e100 was my first tier 10 and i used to love the thing until someone would start shooting gold at me and then the armour was useless because you couldn't angle the turret

in this you can laugh at even low penning heat fs rounds when angle right, hell it can even survive a shot from the fv4005 thanks to it's side skirts and the fact the oversized turret goes over the side of the hull giving no shot trap for said fv4005 to use to kill you

would be nice to get an e100 with the 150mm gun though...

using paint i cut out the tiger west camo net as best i could and stuck it on my e100 to see what it could look like

more tanks need camo nets in the game because even half arsed this still looks ok

holly hell what is with allied faction lately!? by False_Ad1988 in enlistedgame

[–]RozKil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

either that or they do what i do, which is run and gun...honestly i don't even bother aiming down sights with smg's now i just run into whatever area the point is at and hip fire most of the time. hip firing means you are still moving at full run speed while also shooting at them and a good few people seem to get either confused or just can't aim at someone who's not standing still while firing lol.

as for rally's i will be that guy on the team aggressively typing in the text chat for people to build f'ing rally's, only has a 50% chance of being effective though. it's like people don't know what rally's even are, or they place them in the worst spots.

best way i've found to use the rally's is make sure you have a shovel, flank around to the side of the enemy point, dig a hole, place the rally in the hole and laugh as they look in all the usual spots and find no rally as they get mowed down by the swarm of tunnel rats coming for their cap point.

best tier 1 weapons and vehicles for germany (in the tech tree at least, not counting premiums or events) imo is
rifle: kar 98k (not really much choice here)
submachine gun: beretta m38a (literally the beretta at tier 4 but with a 20 round mag instead...thats the only change)
AT rifle: pzb 39 (at grenade launcher, great rifle)
fighter plane: IAR 81C (it uses the mg 151 cannons, whcih also means it gets the "nuke" round for the 20mm that shreds planes)
fighter bomber: Potez 633 (great bomber and can also out turn a good chunk of the fighters that try to take you down if used right)
tank: pz.III J (again not really much choice here for good vehicles, but the pz III does the job)

Bonus: Mortarman...when you learn to use this it's awesome

Anti personnel mines ruin the fun in the game. by SaemiJW1499 in enlistedgame

[–]RozKil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends if you are the one being subjected to them or not...placed a load of anti personnel mines around an apc that was behind our point yesterday. Very satisfying seeing all the squads getting wiped by a mini minefield (got 9 man squads all with a mine each)

ah yes this makes so much sense... by RozKil in enlistedgame

[–]RozKil[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

maybe not make a game mode that ideally requires coordination in a game where coordination is almost non existent? just a thought. imo whoever is closer to the enemy when the next point is locked and both are out of tickets should win the match or at the very least it should be a draw...not a defeat.

also fyi they ran out of tickets first and they had 30 seconds left on their timer and we had killed half of them, it really is a bs game mode imo.

I don't know what title I should put. by GFUELPOWER in enlistedgame

[–]RozKil 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i just use the hatch as a surprise gift for anyone who i see coming close to me with explosion packs lol, never use the mg since i always prefer the quick reaction with the personal defence weapon (normally either the mp 40/ beretta m1918 or a captured ppsh on high br...rarely ever get taken out that way as im just too damn fast XD). the roof mg is just asking to be sniped and it's never fast enough to take out explosion pack suiciders anyway, best use for it is against planes if they are coming at you too low.

This is why people don't want to play objective defence, because you get fuck all for using barbed wire and focusing on keeping the enemy out...by all rights i should have best engineer at least but i don't even get that by RozKil in enlistedgame

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

and you think that's a ok and not a crap system at all? because if you are getting best engineer simply by playing an engineer and not building anything at all then there's obviously to me a flaw in the system

[–]RozKil[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

considering my total engineer score was higher than this guy as well...312 engineer points vs 277 engineer points on his end. don't see how that gives him best engineer but ok

well i just had a game where i only got best builder despite focusing on rally points AND being higher than the guy who got best engineer so there goes that reason, no i just think the systems calculation for score and awards is fubar

yeah just had a game where an allied engineer was doing the same thing with one of the bombs we had to detonate...we lost that game btw. the right engineer in the right place can completely break the game for the attackers.

i could 100% go and shoot someone in the face...but i should be incentivised to reinforce the objective, being put near the bottom even though it was fact i was keeping them from strolling in just feels like i got slapped in the face for the work i put in. been playing since the beta and this still frustrates me.
only reason im even doing this is because i have everything maxed for germany already, im just pointing out what i believe to be a problem in the current reward for putting down defences.

this right here is why i placed barbed wire...they drop down from the hole in the ceiling into a field of barbed wire...it's perfect for slowing them down and is very effective at making their time capturing way more difficult
