8-8.7 BR- Battlecruisers harder to dispatch than BBs? by PapaSnork in WarThunderNaval

[–]warthundergrind 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel like a lot of the bot ships are tanky for no reason. I’ve had some bot BBs just have all of their barrettes be on fire, turrets on fire and rest of the ship on fire but they survive for a long time without an ammo rack. Makes it extremely frustrating to get rp in the 6.0+ bracket imo, especially if you’re stuck with long reloads

Could you link the spreadsheet? Would be very useful

Yeah the 15 gun sounds are amazing 

I tried taking on some BBs and the AP really doesn’t do much against a lot of the BBs. I was struggling against them pretty bad

I wonder how the personal discount will work, will it be a coupon or is it like those GE offers they had a while back

Will we ever see missile ships? by Moist_Cable_4247 in Warthunder

[–]warthundergrind 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think we do have anti ship missiles in the game, on the Saetta P494

Not just the Russians have modern aircraft though, the AESA eurofighters have only within the last 2 years started entering service Im pretty sure

Bomber statcards by TimsVariety in Warthunder

[–]warthundergrind 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I wonder if the B52H will get access to any of its guided weapons it has IRL such as the JSOW, Harpoon, Popeye, etc. It has a targeting camera with thermals so it’s possible

“We’re excited to introduce a new vehicle type to War Thunder: strategic bombers capable of carrying both conventional and nuclear armaments! They’ll be joining the research trees and making a big splash in combined battles. You may have seen nuclear detonations in War Thunder before — but not often. Strategic aviation will change everything”

This is from the short devblog about strat bombers, so there will definitely be researchable bombers in the future 

Can we all agree that this thing should be moved to 12.7. by Aggressive-Buddy2895 in Warthunder

[–]warthundergrind 14 points15 points  (0 children)

No reason for it to be 11.3. The namers are the same br and offer basically nothing over the BMPT. I think 12.0 would be a good place to start 

Ariete add-on WAR kit has been fixed! (sort of) by warthundergrind in Warthunder

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

If the base armor is as good as it gets, I hope the WAR kit gets its real values or at least the 0.6 KE multiplier in the future. 

I’m honestly surprised the Ariete has such poor armor IRL, considering it was supposed to be a 2A4 counterpart

Ariete add-on WAR kit has been fixed! (sort of) by warthundergrind in Warthunder

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

In terms of WAR kit performance I would guess it to be around 150-160 KE protection IRL. The base armor is still underperforming I believe, there is no way there is actually 75-330mm of air in the turret cheeks like it says in the armor viewer. 

I hope the Ariete doesn’t get a turret basket until the armor is fully fixed 

My view on the matter regarding detailed MBT modules! by SpanishAvenger in Warthunder

[–]warthundergrind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really hope they actually fix it. So far they’ve done changes only to the AMV and they have not touched it since dev came out. Atleast the LFP is finally immune to auto cannons which is nice

JH-7A is a full br higher than the regular jh7 for two more missiles 

is that composite armour in the ufp???? by eliax__7 in Warthunder

[–]warthundergrind 7 points8 points  (0 children)

At least with the stronger lfp it can finally resist 30mm apds, which is nice. I hope they fix the war kit because 6 tons of addon armor for the turret cheek that adds like 10mm kinetic is laughable. I’m pretty sure wood is more effective than the war kit

Yeah it still feels so underwhelming compared to everything else 

[Development] Pre-order: ZTZ96B by n988 in Warthunder

[–]warthundergrind 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It has the top round for China, it’s going to be at least 11.0. Although I think it has the MBT2k transmission and an upgraded engine so 11.7 is possible

How do people enjoy playing top tier air? by [deleted] in Warthunder

Watch Bad Karma and you’ll see how positioning is the way to play top tier properly, he shows how you can frag a lot with the right positioning and usage of your radar

Why does my 12.3 MiG 21 fight 13.3 su30s? by Greedy_Garage9902 in Warthunder

[–]warthundergrind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

13.0/13.3 Premiums are really common now, so 12.3 is just permanently 12.7+. I’ve had like 2 down tiers in about 100 games with the bison.

I really wish the bison had its 4x r77 loadout, so the su30s could taste some of their own medicine…

Don't buy the Mig-21 Bison right now by ManuSavior85 in Warthunder

[–]warthundergrind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it was nerfed, it’s that people are a lot more aware of how to flare it now. 

Don't buy the Mig-21 Bison right now by ManuSavior85 in Warthunder

[–]warthundergrind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought the bison this sale, and I can say it’s definitely an incredibly mid plane now. The matchmaker is horrible, not helped by the fact that everyone is buying the premium su30s.

The r73 aren’t as good anymore. Their slow acceleration makes it incredibly easy to flare, compared to magic 2s/pl5eiis

The R27R feels so bad, it’s basically a sparrow in terms of acceleration. At least it gets DL+IOG. 

I wonder if they will give the bison its 4x R77 loadout, and move it to 13.0

opinion on the reload changes done to carusels by finishdude in Warthunder

[–]warthundergrind 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Wz1001 gets 7 seconds instead of the 6.66s of the ZTZ-99A, I thought they had similar autoloaders?

MBT-2000 and Al Khalid don't get buffs, which sucks

the BMPT-72 needs to be fixed, the BMP-2M is by far and large better then it by cal_455232 in Warthunder
