I play on PC from time to time, doing all ze German tanks now. If you see a guy named CoxWinger drunk text spamming during a battle, you've found me.

I play on PC a bit, and the PS4 and PC Guys can play together.
I mainly fly Enduring Confrontation, as I like to fly bombers. |

I play it for the tanks now I was a huge US Bomber guy before tanks though. US tank line sucks balls they are squishy as fuck in this game.

I played it for a while with a HOTAS and hated it.
I just started playing again on Arcade with mouse and keyboard and it's actually fun I don't know what I like yet. Tanks are tough. Planes I can handle. |

If you havent figured it out by now, this game is super russian biased. Example, take a look at the starter planes. View Quote Oh I know. Hell I've recently started to play the british again. The sherman firefly gets wrecked by everything. Nevermind that in the real world it was popping T-55s left and right with the izzies. |

You mean that game filled with kids that cry and report you when you ammo rack their panzer?
Yea I played it, got away from it since the community as a whole grew more toxic by the second |

I wouldn't say that. A properly angled Sherman is damned near impenetrable from the front vs. equivalent battle rating tanks. It's also much more mobile than similar tier Russian and German vehicles. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

It's also much more mobile than similar tier Russian and German vehicles. The early low BR Shermans may be well protected for their BR, but the 76mm Shermans will be penetrated frontally by just about anything at their BR, and it only gets worse as the BR goes up, mainly because the armor doesn't change much aside from the E2, which ends up decently armored (except for the hull machine gun mount, and the cupola which for some bizarre reason is thinner and less well sloped than on the 'standard' Shermans). The M4A3E8, for instance has a BR of 5.3, of which the only 2 German vehicles are the Nashhorn and PIV/70, both of which will penetrate the front plate out to over 500m at any angle which doesn't either mask the Sherman's gun or expose the side, which can be penetrated out to over 1km. Of course, the 76mm Shermans are too highly tiered, with the Nashorn and Pz IV both being Tier 3 vs Tier 4 for the E8. The E8 will All in all, the Sherman in the game fairly well matches the experience of the real world Sherman in the field in that they are well protected initially, but fall well behind in armor. The difference of course is that in the real world, there weren't hordes of Tiger 2s, IS-2s, etc., facing them, and the game doesn't take into account operational issues such as maintainability/availability/reliability, driving range, etc. Mike |

Learning the American fighters suck balls too, at least under 3.0. I'm a bomber fan, mainly because I can't seem to get an edge on any fighter unless they're already hit.

I see the different nations as the game's difficulty settings. Russia and Germany are easy-normal, US is hard mode
The commies and fascists are definitely the best in both air and ground. UK has good air but their tanks suck. US air sucks because in this game, cannons win everything and the US has the least amount of cannons. Japan is just kind of there. I'm pretty sure they implemented Japanese tanks recently as a nerf to Germany; because Jap tanks suck. Before, it would 90% of the time pair up Germany and Russia; which would almost ALWAYS win against US + UK |

I play it (planes) on my PC from time to time.
I get smoked a lot, then I get mad, then I go back to ARMA 3. |

Search for the AR15 squadron... Link? Because i cant find it, but i know it exists. I just searched for "ar15" and it was the only result that came up. Just applied my self, stumbled on this game via Steam a few days ago and got hooked. Air combat is definitely easier with a 47" monitor, I wish I choose air instead of tank to start as I would have preferred a free plane. |

Yea I played it, got away from it since the community as a whole grew more toxic by the second View Quote It was pretty "abusive" from the get go. And yes, it's getting worse. For those considering it for the first time- Treat it like WoT, and suspend disbelief and historical accuracy. It's a -game-, not a simulation. No matter what either has or is claiming. |

If you listen to the likes of Scarper and his band of totally not abusive and fair mods who also happen to still be in high school from the Offical WT forum.....then yes.
No really, the WT forum is a cesspool of the egotistic type; Mod Queue's for literally nothing, getting called a War Gaming Paid Troll when you point out obvious out in the open flaws with the game...then there are the individuals that I wont name who seem to skirt by any sort of punishment and get free rein to act how they want, just so happens to be mostly mods too (anything from down right disrespectful comments, shit talking individuals in open forum then banning and mod queuing them unjustly, breaking rules the turn around and enforce on others). Lets not forget the Russian master race players, it's perfectly fine to ply as anything russian but the second you take a sherman and pop a T34 you're a hacking camping cod fag. Ladies and Gentlemen, War Thunder in a nutshell |

I love War Thunder.
Easily my most played game (ps4) over than BF1. Great game if you enjoy simulators however the ground forces arcade mode is pretty fun. Soviets bias exists. |
|

Game correct, no broken, Gaijin know all, Gaijin game correct and accurate, gamers wrong, gamers always wrong
Yea, gaijin likes to take pages out of Dices book, "fix" things that aren't broken and leave what is broken alone and say it's models and stats are correct. |

We typically only accept people if we can find them on Arf. We have been having a lot of rando's applying to the squadron lately so if you got denied just send me a message!
As for play time, almost anytime I get to play I play WT. Ground forces realistic is the best mode IMO. Get to do some tanks and planes if you earn enough points. Past that, I would say air arcade just because it's a good way to get lions. Also, I have spent too much of my time drinking and playing this game. Recently I have discovered I bought stuff in game that I don't remember buying. I might have a problem |

I saw a few guys with the AR15 tag in a match awhile back. They ignored my ARFCOM references.

I WAS playing on PC, but, every time I turn around it is trying to DL an 87Gig update.
I had to <right click/ exit > this morning in fact. I'm about as far as I can go w/o paying for upgrades...plane wise. I don't even know how to play as a tank. |

I've been teamed up with some of you fuckers on random matches and no one says anything
|

For everyone compaining about russian bias and 'working as intended' how is that any different than wargaming

If you drop BuckeyeDoug a message maybe he would let you on the TS server. I hope you have thick skin :)

Game leaves a bitter taste in my mouth..
Sure it's a great game but the bias just fucking nukes it. I play it quite a bit despite that because it is so fun though. Ingame name is Towely or SavageWhiteDude...I can't recall offhand. |

Same here, just last night. Custom battle, one of the 100 kill matches. Said "fu arock" twice, and nothing. Might have been the fact that I wrecked him several times from across the lake on Poland, in my Tiger H1. View Quote |

I started playing it on my snow day, while I waited for world of tanks to update on PS4
I tried the tanks but after playing wot I decided to stick to the planes. The US planes are weak on guns. I think 2 ARs mounted on the side with and beta mag would be better. It took a little while to figure out how to play with the bombers. I was flying a bomber like a fighter plane |

Latest change log for "Assault".
Some cool new stuff. Exhaust flames, damage models, new tanks, new bomb loads, Gun Stabilizer...... This might make matches harder because it will be easier to drive and shoot Good Luck, Dig Doug |

Anyone else looking forward to when the naval battle pack comes out??!!
|
|
If it's done right, sure. I love realistic tanks because of the integration of ground and air, but if they could integrate navy into that and still make it even, it would be amazing
