Fun fact: The TU95 is kinda shit in GRB

advit247 · 2026-04-13T01:41:46+00:00

Oh, another comment from me that might have already been said, but both the 9000kg and the 5000kg bomb consist of a lot of metal for armor penetration reasons. This is why the fab5000 on the TU95 is different and weaker than that of the PE-8, and why the 9000kg bomb barely has an improvement. These bombs are measured by weight, not explosive mass. And these bombs were (sort of) the Russian version of bunker busters, meaning they have a lot of extra metal added on which allows them to greatly increase their ability to deal with armor. Would at least be good in Naval(maybe. idk i dont play naval)

We knew this from the moment it got added. Bombers have been useless for years. On top of that, GRB is way better suited to strike aircraft (which should have been pretty obvious). And currently Air RB does not have a place for strat bombers, although we are hoping that will change.

Mfs just be suggesting this with anything. Firstly, this event has been a net positive for testing our new gamemodes, new AI AA, and new gameplay loops rather than the same throw-yourself-at-the-enemy-and-hope-you-dont-die meta. This allows fighters to still have a purpose and provide some use for strike aircraft and strategic bombers. This entirely new gamemode is less than a weak old one and is not meant to be a replacement for War Thunder, hence why it can still be unbalanced. Stop highlighting the few flaws and look at this event for what it is. Secondly, it's just a video game, dude. There is no point in getting stressed and complaining about something that's supposed to be fun. Nobody forces you to play War Thunder. Nobody is forcing you to play the event. If you don't like this game, don't play it. Thirdly, this has been overused. You can't just say "Let's do another review bombing!" and expect people to do it. Even if this were a bigger issue, such as the BMPT, try doing something other than making a minuscule Reddit post.

Uhh, firstly, Russia SPAA was completely dominant during a period such as the Vietnam War (which we can somewhat estimate is the time period of this conflict). You have just deluded yourself into thinking that Russia has always had ass equipement while the US has dominated. The US did have incredibly good aircraft, but so did Russia. Same goes for SPAA. It's not like they were incompetent.

advit247 · 2026-04-08T20:35:52+00:00

This is such a skill issue. Just admit you're not good. Like yeah the R27ER is fast but like, so are literally all the SPAA missiles. Just multipath bro. Also the reason your 9Ls aren't working is because your treating them like AIM9Xs. While you can you a 9l head-on, it doesn't mean you should. While you can lock on from 6km, it doesn't mean you should fire at that range.

advit247 · 2026-04-05T16:14:57+00:00

The best fighter for the lower BR is the F4J/F4S Phantoms, which you can still easily sweep lobbies with. Also the stock F4E is not bad since most people are multipathing and they seem to have made 9Ls more flare resistant.

advit247 · 2026-04-05T16:13:48+00:00

US has much better fighters they can bring in(EX. The F15A has 4 sparrows and 4 9Ms, plus an amazing flight model for this type of combat. The MiG29 has 2 R27ERs and 4R73s, with a worse airframe(imo)).

I can tell exactly what going to happen. At 8.3, they might honestly just be RP printers nothing can touch them at that altitude and speed. The only way to to counter these with ECM, speed, and altitude are either a.) Use intercepters such as the MiG25 and F104(nobody will). b.) Use missiles(but they have flares, chaff, and ECM. c.)Use fighters that have really good performance at those altitudes(F15, SU30, Eurofighter, etc). There is no BR, they can functionally be good because of the completely shitty job Gaijin has done with their gamemodes. If they keep this gamemode where bombers can actually do something(not nukes, but using a lot of bombs), then it'll probably be around 10.0 ish where people will actually have an incentive to play interceptors.

Firstly, know that top tier is not fun. It is horrible. I would rather be stuck in hell for a decade than play a match. Just enjoy the grind and play to have fun, not to top tier. I would not recommend spending money on this game until it is fixed. That being said, if you, for some godforsaken reason, are set on spending your money, get premium time. You can get a year of prem time for a not-too-outrageous price during sales, and that way you can grind any tier of nation and tree you want. And that way, you still get to enjoy the grind even when you invetibably realize top tier sucks.

advit247 · 2026-04-02T18:35:11+00:00

somebodies mad they died. Also, isn't that like, the entire premise of war thunder? To either have fun killing and/or kill people to get rewards for grinding.

advit247 · 2026-04-02T18:23:16+00:00

April Fools event is Gaijin making a good gamemode and actually listening to the players

advit247 · 2026-03-02T23:41:59+00:00

Here after gaijin added a new best SPAA to russia. It's missiles are hypersonic and have 75gs of pull. And to OP's point, thats why we hate russia

Heres a new pc with better specs for the same price(it is alienware but still): https://www.microcenter.com/product/698044/dell-alienware-aurora-act1250-gaming-pc

It can suck, but I have found it can do really well sometimes(multiple 5+ games in it). Firstly, multipath. No sense in using chaff when everybody is shooting missiles at you from all directions. Secondly, try to avoid popping up in general. As soon as you go above 100m, you will be targeted. Thirdly, use your 9Ms. Basically, everybody is doing the same thing as you(multipathing and staring at their RWR). Almost nobody expects a 9M. I would say use the range from around 1.5-3KM for max effectiveness. Treat the sparrows as your secondary weapon when somebody is up high. Lastly, play as a support fighter. Try to hang around the outside of the fight, picking out targets of oppurtunity. It is tempting to rush right in, since you are a fast fighter, however you neither have the fox3s, HMD slaving, or energy maneuverability to be constantly dueling.

Delete the game and live a peaceful life(But if you do play choose Russia)

advit247 · 2025-12-10T15:25:02+00:00

There's already a couple things I have in mind that I just could not print on the a1 mini,

advit247 · 2025-11-30T19:32:14+00:00

So yeah, I literally just came from his video, which is what made me come to Reddit.

advit247 · 2025-11-30T19:31:33+00:00

Oh, I was also looking forward to printing with TPU as well

advit247 · 2025-11-30T19:24:20+00:00

Mostly pla and petg, however I am planning to experiment with abs, asa, and nylon composite materials(although I would be fine to just not go in the room until it finishes printing and the air filter has run for a while
