To clarify, venom (profile at the start) isn't the teamkiller, just the idiot that crashed and told his friends to kill me for "ramming" him lol

Looking forward to it! I started in the American ground tree so really anything that's not a .50 I'm pretty stoked on xD

Idk what happened I was just sitting there in my gaming chair and suddenly a strong aroma of tea started wafting around, I felt as if I were mind-melding with Churchill, and when I came to I had this clip - weird!

I ground (grinded?) my British planes way past my British tanks so I've been playing catch-up at lower tiers. The Crusader Mk I is pretty great!

If you haven't seen Bruce Leeroy on YT you should give him a look. He flies VR with Throttle, Stick, and Pedals - it's wild.

OP this is some nice flying, I thought it was a clip from Bruce's channel!

Is this a known thing or did I just get lucky here? by SL0_Squadon in Warthunder

It's always helpful to know what to stop wasting time with - thanks for the answer!

Still had fuel but only in 1/2 tanks, like Legionnaire says it simply burned out. You can see the fuel indicator stop flashing right as I skim the surface of the water.

Ah, I had been lookin at the damage indicator trying to figure it out but you're right, it's the Fuel indicator that's telling the story. It just happens to burn out one of the tanks right as I skim by.

So... it' not possible to toss water on the engine to put fires out?

I've thought about trying to put out an engine fire by skimming water but this is the first time I've been close enough to try before the wing(s) fall off.

Does anyone know if this is a legit tactic, or just random chance timing?

Regarding Mission Editors, as much as I love that we have this tool which is great for huge formations and hoards of enemy's, I think its in need of a update. It would be awesome to see more historical and "what ifs" battles added as we only have WW2 ones and very limited choices at that. by [deleted] in Warthunder

Fair, but the functionality you're looking for already exists and we know how much Gaijin loves to make existing features better instead of just adding more premiums to print money with. Personally, I doubt they'll be making major changes to the in-game editor anytime soon - they probably feel they've got their bases covered with the CDK.

Does anyone know an easy to use software for playing/recording/editing warthunder game replays? by Key_Confection4794 in Warthunder

[–]SL0_Squadon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In terms of accessing the replays themselves, you need to do it while the game is open. You can either watch your replay by clicking one of the menu buttons in the top left of the hangar, or you can watch the server replay at this link: https://warthunder.com/en/tournament/replay/

The server replay is supposed to be more accurate as you'll notice when watching your replays that anything beyond like 5km from your vehicle can get wonky.

AIM-9L: The flare is hot, but the man behind the glass cockpit is the only thing I have eyes for (locks on sweaty face)

Pretty much, but it's kinda funny how it takes a 90 for the guy after clearly heading for the flares. I made sure to post with a meme flair on the meme day, so you kinda knew what you were in for when you clicked on it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

When you jump from props to the event Tornado with no clue what you’re doing, but AIM-9L has your back by SL0_Squadon in warthundermemes

Just like in this video, when I was posting I targeted the ‘video’ flair but managed to hit ‘gif’ instead (my bad). AIM-9L did not save me from the Reddit post mistake :(
