I'm tired of trying to play a non-supersonic fighter, like any of the Sabres, any of the MiGs, any of the British monstrosities, anything in the 8.0-9.0 transonic range, and being placed into constant uptiers against supersonics.

I was trying to play the CA.27 because I recently got it. It looks really fun, a Sabre with ADENS! So, I boot up a match, shouldn't be an issue, right?

Enemy team: F100Ds, F102s, F104s, F106s, F3Hs, an F4C, and a handful of non-supersonics. In my rinkydinky stock CA27 with no AAM.

I almost get smited because of some F3H firing one of his four AIM-7Cs, a missile that is genuinely overpowered now (try saying that a patch ago and watch people laugh at you, that thing needs to be nerfed again. Historic 14% hitrate again please.) We end up losing because my team couldn't keep up against supersonic aircraft in our very much not supersonic aircraft. I think the only supersonic aircraft we had was a Yak-28 or an Su-7, some relegated attacker. I was the last person alive, and it felt like I was getting my balls thrown into an American under-tiered supersonic vice, 2 F106s, an F104, an F3H, and an F86 were just tossing my salad.

Okay, fine, maybe it was just one bad mission. I RTH and enter queue again.

Minute into the mission, I see enemy F100Ds, F102s, F104s, F106s, F3Hs, F4Cs, MiG-19s, and a Yak-130. Same thing as before, I get my salad tossed by enemies I can't hope to catch and I can't hope reach without my AAMs. I actually manage to get a kill on the Yak-130 before I'm four partied by the entire god damn US Air Force.

Gaijin, what the hell? Where is the BR decompression?

Where? Genuinely, where is it?

Why am I going against jets that will out-speed, out-sustained rate, out-gun, and outclimb me? Some of them my own BR or just a 0.3 BR higher? I don't care if their entire gimmick is "going fast", playing a game of supersonic mouse and transonic cat isn't fun or engaging at all.

Please. At least seem to care about game balance.

even higher'

Both should be a step above everything else in their "tier"

I play China and it’s just sad seeing the difference between playing against Russia and playing against America. So many times have I just slung a round randomly at an Abrams and it just magically kills them like ricochets five times and goes through the turret ring and then playing against t-80 and t-90 it’s like shooting a vibranium wall.

Should i get full chinese setup?
Or better soviet?
Or better just get a prem acc for ma self

I mainly play air arcade, im in the us tech tree and im just getting a few planes in rank III. I tried playing realistic battles as well, and i climb for 10 minutes and a fuckass A6M, or a ki shoots me down, and i cant do shit because well... IM IN A U.S. PLANE. ive tried side-climbing didnt work either. I highly think its skill issue but, if yall have some tips please share, cuz people keep saying RB is better than AB.

It’s bizarre that these explosive reactive armor plates ALMOST stopped my projectile when hitting the side from just 100 meters away. I managed to destroy the target, but what if the shot had been from 800 meters out? There’s no way to claim everything is working as it should,there was no angle involved; the APFSDS round hit a flat plate dead-on.

I I’m a German main

Maybe I'm skill issue, but I will never get it

Recently I relapsed warthunder and found a new leaked event vehicle, and new gamemodes that are constantly worked to be fixed in terms of issues and features. This was different from Gaijin a year or two ago, heck it was different from 7-8 years ago as much as I remember. Im not sure if its just me but I think someone on the team is trying, and all those little kids asking for new nations and huge overhauls on mechanics of the game dont understand the work the devs put in. Tell me if im bugging but I think someone important at gaijin got replaced, maybe some "head of creativity" or something.

in basically every low-tier game of Air-RB, some random level 12 kid shoots someone down. this was the 2nd teamkill in our team. we need atleast a Minute of immunity to damage at the start of the battle this is going insane. (also report this chud)

Wanted to grind israel but idk if the f16 is good, kfir is looking nice tho, i need opinions :)

I decided to buy the French primium yak-3.

I played a single game. Looking at the post game panel I see.

Yak-3(France) 81% 6:52 1209 + (Talismans) 1209 = 2418 RP

as the total rp I obtained and

Total: 11005 SL, 2900 CRP, 5177 RP

As the final score.

So I was researching the c.r.714; it was the first French game I ever played, so it cost 2900.

the overflow to the second plane I decided to research: the D.501 it is only 877

SO

if the game was using the 5177 rp from the final score it would be:

5177-2900=2277. So this rp is going going in the next plane so 2277-877=1400 rp is missing.

If the game is using the 2418 rp for reserch I should be able to reserch the c.r.714.

My question is where the F... are the Rp gone?

I already had the situation that the game added fewer points than he said.

I was playing Germany the other day. I had a really good jpz-4,5 mach. The post batel panel said around 5000 rp but on the

the pz2000 not even 3000 remuved rp can some one exlpain to me wat is apnening ?

I've had way too many planes crash into me as a bomber and do fuck all to me yet I get nothing.

I flank right 10k meters and build up around mach 1.3, however there is always an enemy trying to intercept this strategy. When I get into a 1v1 we both are firing off bore shots and notching. However, my shots can't do shit because I can't guide them into pitbull range with my tws. I fire the first shot around 45 km with good speed but they just keep slowly getting close while notching and launching off bore shots.

Is there a solution to this because I think the su30 has enough gimbal on its radar to stay fully notched while firing missiles and keeping me on the defensive

basically is there literally any way to win 1v1s when you have horrible attack abilities while defensive

TLDR: Planes with better radars (14.7) are actively intercepting my F15 flanking path and are notching and pushing closer using their high radar gimbal and I can’t figure back

Sorry but the current battlepass has the raft, the reactive armor, the homemade sledgehammer, and several low effort names like clementine or brunhilde written in microsoft office fonts lol

All those decorations are direct copies from the last couple battlepasses, literally identical. Then some womens names in the most basic ass word editor fonts.

and top it all off with a duplicate of the tech tree and premium vehicle, but with a camo net and a range finder which is practically useless considering the muzzle velocity on that round.

This is a contender for the worst battlepass ever right? Literally the most low effort slop ever. Who tf buys battlepasses?

I want everyone in the game to have fun so I am not saying that lvl100 players should not play in low BR games. However why are they mixed in with players with less than lets say 100 hours, or anyone that has not even completed a tech tree. The games I have been having recently have just been stupid on both ends. I am up to 6.0 USSR and 8.0 GER and any time I try to introduce my friends to this game they quit before hitting rank three because it is just constant curb stomps.

It has been getting so bad recently its not even fun on the winning side of the match because they are just immediately pushing players into the spawn. My brother wanted to give it a shot and wanted to start with Sweden so hoped into a 2.0 game with him, insta uptiered into a 3.0 game with 2 squads of lvl100 players all in t80s. Our team had like 4 kills the entire game stuck in spawn in 5ish mins and half the people left after 2 deaths.

This cant be fun for anyone.

Yeah yeah, I know I don't have to play it. But I love spading planes so lemme cook.

The F16AJ is perhaps the WORST F16 variant at any BR. For 12.7 it competes with the F15A which gets the AIM7M, AIM9M, and some get the AAM3 or Python 3.

Additionally you get a grand total of 45 countermeasures.

I understand this plane was added as a stop gap of sorts until they added the F2A but at this point I feel bad for it as Gaijin has clearly neglected or forgotten about it.

Even just being pushed down to 12.3 would be huge

Any thoughts? I say all this because my time with the F16A wasn't as painful so idk if I'm just trash.

Hello, basically as the title suggests. Tried to log on in the morning and it says "account frozen". I havent done anything on my account, havent even downloaded any wt live skins or anything. Does anyone know what to do? Im kind of worried because the event does start tomorrow. Thank ygs in advance.

How'd i do?

edit: I would love some more feedback, opinions and ideas that I can do to improve
