It costs you a pittance to spawn an aircraft with no ground ordinance. If you intercept their CAS rushers, they probably will have nearly zero SP to work with afterwards so you've knocked a player out of the battle. At worst they'll spawn an SPAA and not contribute to the ground fight.

Ignoring the strategic angle, dogfighting in GRB is so much better than ARB since you don't have any HUD icons for aircraft and you're fighting low to the ground (no fucking faggot passive aggressive climbing battles) over other players fighting their own ground battle. Its absolute peak dogfighting.

holy fuck that's brilliant
 
I actually enjoy nuclear thunder. Theres a steep learning curve, but Ive found a rhythm: take out some ground targets or fighter jets, get a small nuke and build momentum from taking out ground targets and bases. Theres enough people who have never played jets to know what the fuck they are doing for anyone with some skill to succeed even with the default jets. Ive found the Soviet side easier than the US side.

It teaches you discipline and how to use standoff weapons. If you had a competent team its easy. For example, you can sneak up with a wide flank and go behind enemy lines to take out some of the S-300 and Nebo radars. This is the closest thing we've had to like a WWII campaign.
 
The BR gates have made nuke thunder so much more enjoyable. Last night was suffering as I, propfag that I am, just got constantly felted by 13.0 Miggers, F-14s, F-15s etc and so I struggled to crack 2k points. Today, the first game I played got just shy of 8k points. I already thought the game mode had some serious potential, with these recent changes I think I'm sold. I hope this becomes the default air battle mode in the future.

I'm just spading all of the random shit jets I got over time. Su22, MiG23, Su25, MiG27, A10, A7, F111. It's so comfy to just spawn on the side airways and do your score farming ground.

su-25 isnt shit

the earlier ones are undertiered shitfucks with all-aspect missiles at a BR where most planes dont even have flares, and the later ones are even more bullshit cuz u get vikhrs and/or KH-38MTs, u can win early-game BVR engagements with the KH38MTs, and they can't be flared nor chaff'd

same for the A-10, except its even slower, can outturn and outrate anything in its BR and doesnt have anything like vikhrs or KH38MTs, but its still an undertiered all-aspect slinger

the MiG-23/27 and su-22 aren't bad either, as long as u use manual wing sweep

They are massive piles of shit the MiG-23 is straight ass minus the missile and the MiG-27 is an even bigger pile of shit. The Su-22 is just garbage. The only reason I'm spading them is cause ground and cause nothing better to do. I've already gotten the only good sub top tier Russian Jets. The MiG-21 Bis/SMT and the Yak-141.

Good news: they intend to make something akin to the current nuke thunder into a permanent game mode. When and how? Who knows.

I wish they made different ground targets worth more. For example: if I go and terrain-hug for 10 minutes to take out a Nebo radar or S-300 installation I only get like 77 points for each one destroyed despite the fact that those have a much larger impact on winning versus a T-80 or Osa.
 
Whenever I hear warthunder I think of classified documents getting leaked in there own forms, don't get me wrong I've enjoyed the game but after I got to the b26 bomber I've just moved on to old retro games which is fine but boy gijian is vary shady sometimes as a company cause I heard more rumors and horror stories by people who knew the company vary well or just a player who witnessed another classified documents getting leaked.
 
Oh cool they added Hungarian planes. Some of their low tier fighters have what are basically Breda-SAFATs with double the rate of fire.
 
New War Thunder leak on reddit, and it's not about sekrit documents.

Ex-Gaijin CM (13 years): former employees retained access to player data, possible pressure on staff, and disclosure of medical information. [Part 1/2] ​

gyo.tc since I don't have an old.reddit account and I want to get this out as soon as possible

According to the information available to me, long after termination, some former employees continued to retain access to systems connected to player data and Gaijin project management. I have video recordings documenting all of these access rights.

My account will also cover how the company treated people who tried to raise these problems and refused to ignore the risks — and who, in the end, lost their normal lives, their health, and the work they loved.

Apparently, speaking of Gaijin having access to your files, they have a second anticheat, called Viking AC, which can access a bunch of encrypted shit stored in the user's computer.
 
Does anyone play air RB on EU? Are the RU teams just shit over there like US teams are on NA? I played a bit with a friend who had NA/EU active because of the time, and I had what was probably the worst time I've ever had playing RU props.
