Gutted to see that fucking ATGM units are still Tier 5 
I had really hoped that they would have fucked off to Tier 6.
However, you can now fuck up their rockets with shots, even from an MG!
Yeah i thought they would have been up teired…but as you said…at least there is a new way to counter them if you see it coming
Just keep in mind the reload time of the IT-1 being insanely quick and that the Rakettenjagdpanzer 2 has 2 shots before it has to reload and can turn on a dime!
Stooks, could you do my login today please?
all done buddy
morrrre words of some sort

Some VERY welcome changes to the BR ratings for a lot of things! ATGM units will be fucking off to highest BR rating games and Tier 5 stuff will be based around actual tanks again

This is why I love War Thunder, it’s the insane attention to detail:
New parameters for thermodynamics which are responsible for the effectiveness of the cooling radiators, subject to flight speed, have been applied.
The accuracy that they have for their in-game units is just insane.
That they do matey, which is why it’s a great game…when you don’t get one shotted when you are angled properly from 1k away
The French are getting planes soon too…which hopefully means tanks soon after too.
Altho much of the French stuff was not very good…or the good stuff was just experimental / on paper. Will be interesting to see what they come up with

Tried a little tank grind last night and just got completely mullered. Tk’s on my side, horrendous matchmaking, I had a moment of joy when I out-manoeuvred another tank one -on-one only to watch 2 shots ricochet off his rear then get one-shotted by him.
Went straight into my seal-clubbing Fw-190 and gloried in the kills

TK’s on your side???You playing sim battles and not arcade???
That’s what I was thinking! I can’t remember when I was last TK’d, other than being smacked by artillery in a Tier 1 SPAA.
Spoon… ya gotta roll with me fella
Well I thought it was a tk, a tank blew up at the start and one of our guys was firing at him - definitely arcade mode though.
Probably a self-destruct. Happens if a player disconnects or loses connection. I see it about once every 5 games or so, some player will just randomly explode or no reason.
