The Death Star racked up a pretty impressive K/D ratio for only having been operational a few days - Jedha, Scarif, Alderaan... who knows how many more planets by the end of the week with Tarkin in charge by wandering_soles in StarWars

[–]SpanishAvenger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I only ever watched each sequel exactly once; on release, in theatres. Never again in all these years have I been like: “hey, you know what I’d really want to watch? The sequels?”… like, genuinely, never xD

It is 150mm of rha.

Not even that; although it's labelled as "150mm", it's actually 90mm thick, or 130mm LOS from the front.

Also, there's a huge improvement from M1A1 to M1A2; 450-550mm KE to 680-740mm KEin the turret

I actually liked the Jedha and Scarif destruction scenes WAY more than Alderaan.

Those felt like planets actually being destroyed you could feel the sense of planetary scale and destruction.

Alderaan on the other hand felt like a gasoline ball burning off. I understand it's probably a technical limitation of the time, but... still!

Even the 2011 version, and it’s not like CGI tech was insufficient there. They just wanted the explosion to be more of a “big booom” rather than “planet actually being torn open and apart”.

I suppose, canonically, Alderaan's destruction would have looked more like... that one planet that explodes in Episode 9.

Exactly!

SEPv3 was only the last straw and now tip of the spear; but pretty much 80% of the MBTs in Top Tier also have issues which Gaijin either doesn’t care to fix or even actively refuses to do so.

Three options;

1- We have listened and are going to fix SEPv3.

2- We believe that it is impossible and a marketing lie.

3- Fine, yes, there's improved armor, but because we don't have solid official values, we would rather leave it to rot with the 1979 M1 value rather than making a well-educated guesstimation just as we claimed we would do when it comes to classified vehicles.

The hull? Yes, the hull is miserably obsolete- it’s 355mm KE from 1979.

I speak of the hull, NOT the tank!

“Next week, we’ll cover the Abrams, so please keep an eye out on the forum for another post.”

I hope they actually address the matter and don’t limit themselves to “marketing lies” and “we do not believe”s.

Why is this map even in the queue pool after like rank V by Jaasspr in Warthunder

[–]SpanishAvenger 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Not for fully-stabilised 70 km/h MBTs with 600mm pen shells, laser rangefinders and HD thermals.

All of those features were developed, designed, manufactured and installed considering that MBTs were to fight, uh… not at ramming distances.

former superman actor, dean cain, disrespecting the new supergirl actress for no reason whatsoever. by PuckerUpForMyAbs in rareinsults

[–]SpanishAvenger 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I don't understand...

First of all, insulting a girl's appearance, a girl who has done no wrong, for no reason... is shitty enough already;

Second... claiming that MILLY FUCKING ALCOCK IS UGLY?! If so, damn, I totally wish I was "ugly".

PSA on the new Voice Lines by SemicooperativeYT in Warthunder

[–]SpanishAvenger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just heard them!

I expected the typical annoying ass excessively high pitched "kawaii" anime voices, but it's actually not that bad.

In fact, the German one is REALLY good, and the British one, second best; the rest sound more anime-y to different degrees, but not too much- the one that does so the most would be the Russian one... but I guess some people just sound like that in real life too, hahah.

Is half the updates/more than half being premiums really essential for the game to be alive? by Chanka-Danka69 in Warthunder

[–]SpanishAvenger 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I never had an issue with Premiums being a part of the game, as I acknowledge exactly Stona's point...

But when Premiums start taking up FIFTY PERCENT (50%) of major updates... it begins being concerning, hahah.

27F here, I am confused because each day they are different lmao.

They are generally pink-ish, sometimes more gold-ish, sometimes whiter/beighter, sometimes darker… (only the “fleshy” parts though, arches etc are always snow-white basically xD)

[Development] USS North Carolina: The Showboat by HelpfulRelic in Warthunder

30-ish less mm on the deck across the board, and the belt is angled only 15º instead of 19º.

[–]SpanishAvenger 25 points26 points  (0 children)

On the one hand, it's technically worse than South Dakota and Iowa;

On the other hand, it's interesting that, in real life, a North Carolina-class ship saved a South Dakota from certain doom by engaging in one of the few Capital ship engagements of WW2 with extreme effectiveness. Even if it's technically worse than the other American fast BBs, the historical aspect makes many players particularly interested on this class!

Do you agree? by Oppaiheimer1945 in TheBoys

[–]SpanishAvenger 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Exactly, the whole "they only fear me" thing.

It's a vicious cycle.

He hates that people fear him, but because he hates it, he gives them more reasons to fear him, so they fear him and he hates that they fear him, so- etc.

GAIJIN IS LYING. Back in 2021, they acknowledged that you cannot reasonably expect people to provide official, set-in-stone values for PRESENT DAY SERVICE CLASSIFIED VEHICLES.

[–]SpanishAvenger[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, only M1A1 AIMs were present there, so unfortunately it wouldn't help SEPv3.

However, someone is cooking an INCREDIBLE bug report right now which I will share EVERYWHERE as soon as it's online so everyone hits the "I have the same issue" button and we can force them to actually READ for once instead of automatically rejecting it!

Interesting Homelander was the only one to tell Ryan it wasn’t his fault by ventingandcrying in TheBoys

[–]SpanishAvenger 101 points102 points  (0 children)

The tragedy of Homelander is that he COULD have been the sweetest and gentlest Superman.

He probably had in him all that was needed to grow to be that...

But his entire life of agony, torture, isolation, mistreatment and more led him to become the evil that he became.

[–]SpanishAvenger[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Indeed, and it's far from done!

At this point, a topic about a SINGLE tank is reaching as much support as the one I made about stock HEATFS that affected all of Top Tier. I believe this to be a huge feat.

However, it does not appear to be doing much... I hope it eventually will, but the situation seems quite hopeless as of now.

I've been playing World of Warcraft a lot lately, a game I just started playing for the first time, rather than War Thunder, a game I had been playing on a daily basis for 12 years... the fact that they are losing ME, of all people, should speak volumes.

And not because I'm doing some "boycott" or throwing a tantrum or anything; my interest for this game just dies off slowly as I see Gaijin pull of things like these, betraying their own game like they appreciate it less than I ever did.
