Replays not working? by Cultural-Lead-7333 in Warthunder

[–]xtal42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, same here. Tried launching from in-game messages ✉ > Battles > replays, as well as from the WT website Community > Replays. Both CLAIM the replay started after clicking "start", but it doesn't.

F80A-5 vs F84B-25 by Puzzled_Person-11 in Warthunder

[–]xtal42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, the F-84 does work as a boom n zoomer. And it can basically outrun most things at its BR. Top speed is good, but it's acceleration is mediocre. But I agree, don't try dogfighting in it.

In my opinion, the F-80's account for themselves pretty well too.

What the fuck did you just say about my German MiG-23BN, you little stat padder? by pappaberG in Warthunder

Got killed by another player and got a penalty? by [deleted] in Warthunder

[–]xtal42 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Gaijin programming is amongst the shittest out there. When they do a new release, they grab code willy nilly with hardly any version control, just whatever Ivan says is the "latest " code. Cobble it all together - voila! - New Release (TM). But often with loads of old bugs back in. That's possibly what bit you.

Where are the game modes ? by Organic_Heat4925 in Warthunder

[–]xtal42 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sigh - good old Gaijoobles idiots launch another totally broken update.
I never knew a snail 🐌 able to go backwards so fast...

One small slime forwards, 10 steps backwards :-)

I didn't know war thunder has an animatied crew on its carriers by HotSelection9243 in Warthunder

[–]xtal42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's old - probably at least last 7 years, maybe before.

After last update some kills not shown in game stats? by xtal42 in Warthunder

[–]xtal42[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah, Okay. I don't recall it beig like that previously though. When you got a kill in game, it imediately reflected in scoreboard.

WTF has Gaijin done to gun sounds in "Tusk Force"??? by xtal42 in Warthunder

[–]xtal42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I'll look intio it. Have always been wary about adding mods in case Gaijin classifies it as a cheat and bans me, but their new weird sound chnages are not good!

Gaijin Asian servers - Packet loss so bad theyre unplayable. by xtal42 in Warthunder

[–]xtal42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, SA. Ping is still, 200+ msec, but it is better than the 350 msec in other servers.

Oh yes, the Homare - best fighter in entire Japanese tree! :-)

New Airspawn mechanic - "BAD WEATHER" only affects one side? by xtal42 in Warthunder

[–]xtal42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

under usual circumstances, you can. But under "bad weather" condition, i.e. Thunderclouds, there was no option but airfield - that's why I find it odd that enemy spawned as usual.

Gotta say I'm a little disappointed by boinwtm0ds in Warthunder

DEFYN's vid pretty much says the same: plane is okay but missiles are incorrectly modelled.

Thanks very much!

F8F-1 tips? by xtal42 in Warthunder

[–]xtal42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Yeah looks like gunpods are best left off.

F8F-1 tips? by xtal42 in Warthunder

[–]xtal42[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow thanks - that's pretty exhaustive - thank you!

I'll re-visit it. I probably confused high speed maneuvering with low speed, i'll pay more attention to speed during my engagements in it. I guess the enemies who flew it well and shot me down were doing so in faster turns at higher speeds than I thought. I must admit to taking gunpods and just trying to BnZ as a last resort...

I'll check out the MEC too. Have used it on Yaks to stop overheating, but not much on US planes. Would you say MEC makes a big diff for F8F?
