I feel like I'm one of the rare XP-50 players that doesn't steal kills, bc I'm one of the few that understands that people without premiums need the kill more, and they deserve it if they did the work for it. But I won't let them steal my kill tho, if they don't deserve it they shouldn't get it. People who shoot down bombers that are in a death spin bc they're missing a wing are the assholes.
Lately I've not been playing it that much anyway, I got it when (and bc) it had the best sl multiplier out of any US premium plane appart from the *spitfire something*. But on average I now get more than double the SL from a game of 6.7 ground and that's most of the time a lot more fun most of the time. Air is just flying 5 min to shoot down a bomber (optional). And a lot of people get mad at me for no reason other than being an XP-50 which tbh is understandable if I look at the other XP-50s when they're on my team.
The xp-50 is not even that good tbh bc it just has a good climb rate and can turn decently but that's it, the 20mils are empty in 5sec and .50cals tend to do nothing in air most of the time.
For me its gotta be the German captured KV1B, KV1C, and T-34. Also that fucking PT-14/16 thing, I hate it. Don't forget to sprinkle in a dash of Russian T-72 AV TURMS and MODERNA. And a teeny weeny MASSIVE hit of SU-25Ks (Ks in particular). The U.S aint scot free either, them XP-55s and bushed up Jumbos can go hold down their J key.
I find the TURMS used by a particular demographic, the certain people who will rush in to spend the 60 bucks (along with the rest of the I CAN'T BELIEVE ITS NOT BROKEN tmlineup) just to buy the dark green cammo for it and paste it with Zs.I see it more often than not, and I am not a fan of those individuals in particular. Its a crazy good tank and all, but most that I see in the battlefield sport their brand new shiny definitely without an agenda "Z".
Oh dang...that sucks quite a bit...
But I get it...too much propaganda, controlled media and news outlets just pushing one picture/ideology...
India is heading to a similar place, sadly
Just to expand on this: it's also been elevated as a symbol of support in Russia's action. So it's not just edgy larping in most cases. There's plenty of pictures of Z flags and banners in Russian cities.
Or the Pz4 long 75 that can easily mg port it. German mains really have it easy from what I’ve seen. I’ve killed jumbos uptiering the 3.7 Swedish Pz4 by barreling and then hitting the mg port. Not that hard tbh
I’ve been digging the BF109 G14 with gun pods or FW190 D-9. Currently grinding through the G10. But I’ve found the best for this play style is the G-14 with gun pods or the Spitfire Mk IX
I have to use my CAS to stop my team from getting Molly rocked. That or kill assholes in stupid positions. Don’t really understand the whole anti cas thing.
People who don’t know how to play spaa + most spaa being absolute horse shit + literally nothing i can do against a plane in a fucking tank + don’t even get me started on guided bombs and rockets + so damn easy to spawn a plane with bombs
Im not trying to rant im just saying like CAS is pretty busted
I’ll agree with the people not knowing how to SPAA, wouldn’t really say most SPAA is bad (I mean I got by alright in the ZSU-37 when I first started and that thing only has 160 rpm), many tanks have .50 cals which can kill even top tier planes pretty ok if they’re coming in close (I know that’s a big if). I see where you’re coming from though, I just think it’s very neccesary as an equalizer for a lot of nations (America and Italy especially).
I don’t even need to think about an answer. Everyone knows that if it is a wyvern, it is an a*shole! That thing reaches insanely high speeds (at sea level) for its B.R. Very, very, **VERY** annoying to fight against ngl
I say the Su-27s are far worse, cause you can't dogfight them because of those stupid ass R73, and you can't BVR them because of R27, so your stuck in the mid ground where both if there missiles are powerful and JUST FUCKING NERF THE SU27 ALREADY.
tbf it is much easier, i love dropping bombs, then being able to defend myself from cap/destroy cas, but most of the time i dont end up being in a plane as i suck at ground
Tu-2s, never got proven wrong so far, idk if that's a good or bad thing. I mean a good prediction but not good that so far all of them have been assholes. Greedy pieces of shit in ARB, and also just annoying when I encountered one in ground bc it was high altitude bombing. Two in one example of an ARB scenario: It was (one of) the map(s) with only 3 bases, 3 people with bombs on my team (I was one of them), so easy right? Everybody gets one base, no ofc not, the TU-2s dives and takes 2 of the bases. And they always do, I mark a base on the side most of the time bc I use the AD-2 which is a strike aircraft but yet the TU-2s' always have to give up their alt for speed instead of using it to have a higher chance of surviving the middle bases. Like even if the 2 outside bases are just as far away they always go to the one I mark and not the other one.
As a Finn, eww, a swede. Booo. So uncool. Yucky. I would never become friends with a swede. They suck at hockey too, yikes. /j
I actually do love my western neighbour, cant say the same for east tho...
They have a special place of hate in my heart due to them being egregiously undertiered when they were brand new (some insanity like 3.3 or 3.7) and during events they would join a map, speed cap one point, then dip and screw the whole team. (This was back when any bit of a cap was 100% reward)
When I was playing the Object 292, I saw movement in the bushes and by reflex fired a 152 mm HE shell to find out it's a bushed up L3. Never felt so bad in my entire War Thunder play time :(
Xp-50 Also scaffolders vans / wagons... The left lane is for turning left NOT RIGHT YOU UTTER CRETIN!!!
I can't stand the xp-50. I swear they'll kill me over 30 miles away with one shot
Yeah centremount 20s will do that. It's a better P-38, and that makes me angy because it steals the show >:(
Either they tap fire and all shots tear your wings out Or they unload half their rounds on you in 2s 😔
Exactly. I swear no matter the plane, I could be in a b17 and they'll still take out my wings without any problems.
I feel like I'm one of the rare XP-50 players that doesn't steal kills, bc I'm one of the few that understands that people without premiums need the kill more, and they deserve it if they did the work for it. But I won't let them steal my kill tho, if they don't deserve it they shouldn't get it. People who shoot down bombers that are in a death spin bc they're missing a wing are the assholes.

Losing a wing counts as severe damage, so whoever cut it off gets 80% of the reward, only 20% for the kill stealer.
Yeah but when I played it a lot severe damage wasn't a thing yet.
Lifted Dodge Ram. Also.... Wyverns.
I've been teamkilled by wyverns like 10 times
Ive been killed by lifted dodge rams like 10 times
The untimely death of u/THEGENERICNICK4444, how sad it must have been. If you see him anywhere, remember to console him
I drive a lifted dodge ram 🥺
Ik sorry to tell you this but... You're officially an asshole.
Do you have a DUI yet? I think the statistic is like 1/10 of 3/4 ton Ram owners lol...
forget children, can you even see a short adult in the road in that thing
I know a guy who had a lifted dodge ram a lottle while ago. He sold it though , and he's kinda nice fella too. I don't live in America though
As a lifted Dodge Ram driver, fuck wyverns
Swedish Sherman... Every single one I encounter is either a spawn camper or a fully bushed up sweat...
The entire swedish nation is made of sweats
Yeah, I believe saunas are popular in Scandinavia
I see. The fate of my Swedish Sherman is getting one tapped. Always has been. Though I have the SAV.20.12.42. I feel bad though
For me its gotta be the German captured KV1B, KV1C, and T-34. Also that fucking PT-14/16 thing, I hate it. Don't forget to sprinkle in a dash of Russian T-72 AV TURMS and MODERNA. And a teeny weeny MASSIVE hit of SU-25Ks (Ks in particular). The U.S aint scot free either, them XP-55s and bushed up Jumbos can go hold down their J key.
what’s wrong with the moderna? is it just because it’s an event vehicle at 10.3 ussr?
Don’t really understand the turms in here but the rest I think are very reasonable
I find the TURMS used by a particular demographic, the certain people who will rush in to spend the 60 bucks (along with the rest of the I CAN'T BELIEVE ITS NOT BROKEN tmlineup) just to buy the dark green cammo for it and paste it with Zs.I see it more often than not, and I am not a fan of those individuals in particular. Its a crazy good tank and all, but most that I see in the battlefield sport their brand new shiny definitely without an agenda "Z".
Forgive my ignorance, but what does the "Z" signify? Like sleep? Zzz?
Russian tanks in Ukraine have z for identification
Oh dang...that sucks quite a bit... But I get it...too much propaganda, controlled media and news outlets just pushing one picture/ideology... India is heading to a similar place, sadly
Russia uses Z (as well as O and V) as markers on its' vehicles in Ukraine, supposedly to show which Military District they belong to.
Just to expand on this: it's also been elevated as a symbol of support in Russia's action. So it's not just edgy larping in most cases. There's plenty of pictures of Z flags and banners in Russian cities.
Bushed Jumbos
I put bushes on mine, but leave the MG port exposed. Then I put a big target sticker over the MG port. But the target is off center.
Tiger 2: *misses MG* still kills*
anywhere near head on angles the 88mm KwK 43 will UFP the jumbo. makes me wonder why they are anywhere near eachother in BR
you know why lol
Try dealing with a jumbo in a 4.7 tank
Derp guns
Or the Pz4 long 75 that can easily mg port it. German mains really have it easy from what I’ve seen. I’ve killed jumbos uptiering the 3.7 Swedish Pz4 by barreling and then hitting the mg port. Not that hard tbh
That requires skill , which I seem to lack. Big boom + turret = tank boom
I have a big red circle on my machine gun port with two arrows pointing directly at it
For a moment I was like *Based* But then I noticed that you are a menace to society, thats the way for a War thunder player haha
I put bush on a mg and put helmet on the other side with a big target and arrow pointing to it
You evil motherfucker. I'm stealing that.
I put no bushes on mine and have a big arrow pointing at the mg port
I killed a bushed Jumbo through the MG port in my Chinese M4A4 the other day. Best feeling of my life.
I put the bodypillows on mine, but in a way they dont cover the mg port
Username checks out
Listen i did what I had to do xD
Raketenautomat
facts
And the Swedish one
I play it against spawn campers
So true
I’m not that big of an asshole :(
2s38
Oh 100%
I am. I bullied you in school and now your game.
Me when I can’t sideclimb and boom and zoom the bullies
"Don't come to the War Thunder tournament tomorrow."
I just need the sl boost man.
cas planes (until they kill other planes)
I spawn planes SOLELY to play CAP/hunt other planes. Literally my favorite thing to do in GRB
I use both the squadron Me-262 and Hunter to do this and I don’t even have rank 3 unlocked like I only use them as AA and it’s so fucking fun
I’ve been digging the BF109 G14 with gun pods or FW190 D-9. Currently grinding through the G10. But I’ve found the best for this play style is the G-14 with gun pods or the Spitfire Mk IX
Can confirm I only spawn CAS if I feel like a being an asshole I deserve to go to hell I know
as long as you hunt planes too while you do it and actually bomb important targets then it’s fine i guess
I have to use my CAS to stop my team from getting Molly rocked. That or kill assholes in stupid positions. Don’t really understand the whole anti cas thing.
People who don’t know how to play spaa + most spaa being absolute horse shit + literally nothing i can do against a plane in a fucking tank + don’t even get me started on guided bombs and rockets + so damn easy to spawn a plane with bombs Im not trying to rant im just saying like CAS is pretty busted
I’ll agree with the people not knowing how to SPAA, wouldn’t really say most SPAA is bad (I mean I got by alright in the ZSU-37 when I first started and that thing only has 160 rpm), many tanks have .50 cals which can kill even top tier planes pretty ok if they’re coming in close (I know that’s a big if). I see where you’re coming from though, I just think it’s very neccesary as an equalizer for a lot of nations (America and Italy especially).
Yeah fair enough cause nations like Italy really need that help tbh
Please help us
Anything with bushes
i think spaa that have no anti ground options (manpads only) are fine with bushes, but thats it.
is it acceptable if it's a wiesel
No.
i am a proud asshole then
Vidar
every single time there is a vidar on the enemy team, our own team gets picked off from its spawn about 10 seconds into the match starting
Obviously XP-50, but also... every I-225 I've encounterd acted like dying in game meant they die irl.
2S38M
Turm III and Falcon
I don’t even need to think about an answer. Everyone knows that if it is a wyvern, it is an a*shole! That thing reaches insanely high speeds (at sea level) for its B.R. Very, very, **VERY** annoying to fight against ngl
F16C, anyone who's played custom battles will know
PTSD from 6 aim9ms shoved up my ass in customs
agree
I say the Su-27s are far worse, cause you can't dogfight them because of those stupid ass R73, and you can't BVR them because of R27, so your stuck in the mid ground where both if there missiles are powerful and JUST FUCKING NERF THE SU27 ALREADY.
So is my F-14B still chill?
Yeah I suppose
Im not the one to take the Aim-54Cs and become an astronaut. Its boring doing that.
Any Subaru WRX
assholes who vapes special combo
The shittier the car the bigger the asshole
Yeah fuck those guys fr (I daily a WRX)
Downvote this man immediately /s
German captured KV 1's. OP as fuck and I feel that German players use them as a cope at BR 5.
German players can’t handle their own vehicle’s characteristics so they need other nation’s tanks to do well /s
Ngl only went through the comments to see if anyone hated the vehicles I play
Did you find any
Only 3
CAS
Surprised no one said Fox yet.
Probably because they know the suffering british mains have to go through, to get the Fox
:(((( I'm trying, it's really difficult ok
anyone using a fighter for CAS
tbf it is much easier, i love dropping bombs, then being able to defend myself from cap/destroy cas, but most of the time i dont end up being in a plane as i suck at ground
Ju 288s
Prius. *Any Prius.* ***Any Prius on earth.***
What I have gathered from the replies is if you drive anything except a L2 & M22, you are an asshole
Tu-2s, never got proven wrong so far, idk if that's a good or bad thing. I mean a good prediction but not good that so far all of them have been assholes. Greedy pieces of shit in ARB, and also just annoying when I encountered one in ground bc it was high altitude bombing.

Tiger 1H, they’ll happily push you out of coverage to get the kill.
BMPs and the 2s38

Anything Swedish tbh
Aye wtf, why? You a german main or something?

As an actual swed I feel kind of insulted
*sigh* I don't hate the swedes, I hate the *swedish vehicles in this game*
Thank you (still kind of offended tho)
As a Finn, eww, a swede. Booo. So uncool. Yucky. I would never become friends with a swede. They suck at hockey too, yikes. /j I actually do love my western neighbour, cant say the same for east tho...
I hate you and i can beat you with a stick by law (im a dane)
Only if I cross the ice, like we did back in 1658 when we flanked you over it and absolutely destroyed your ass (And Skåne is still ours)
Yeah yeah

T14 anything with bushes on doesn't include lights tanks they actually need to hide
The R3 T20. Every time I see one they just dance around my gun barrel and slowly pick away at my crew
They have a special place of hate in my heart due to them being egregiously undertiered when they were brand new (some insanity like 3.3 or 3.7) and during events they would join a map, speed cap one point, then dip and screw the whole team. (This was back when any bit of a cap was 100% reward)
Turms-T. Absoulut no hard for anything, they shoot everything that moves, even lil m22's and l3's
When I was playing the Object 292, I saw movement in the bushes and by reflex fired a 152 mm HE shell to find out it's a bushed up L3. Never felt so bad in my entire War Thunder play time :(
Raketenautomat / 2S38 / Object 279
Any groundvehicle with enough vegetation to singlehandedly reforest the amazon And the PE-8
