Changes to Bomber Survivability

Btw, looking at your footage, you run at a decently high ping of 116, what server are you playing on?

Secondly, looking frame by frame, you got shot in the cockpit at least 5-7 times and were simply unphased.

So it’s likely a combination of desync, and the rounds striking the wing, but seemingly registering else where based on the desync.

Lastly, a video is a video dude.
None of us were around in WW2 to say it did or didn’t happen.

EU and US, im living in the EU. That was on an US server.

I live in the US and only like to play NA. So my ping is usually 26
It does become the CN server after 10 pm my time though, and boy are the suspicious users out in force as the SL crates come to a close.

Yeah, i have the US servers selected due to playing with people from the US. No matter who’s the squad leader, we choose both just for equality. EU server also seems to experience the same kind of migration in the early morning hours lol.

So true, actually.

You’ve changed my mind, WarThunder gun cam footage is now actual WW2 gun cam footage.

It was obvious from the moment a ridiculous amount of smoke started coming out from the wing.
There’s nothing inside a Bf 109’s wing for that

Lmao I didn’t even see that. Good catch.

Again. My bad.
Twas an honest mistake.

All the people I play with are from CA or the US so… just makes sense to play only US

they should make a offical poll for bomber feedback

omg i hate polls, hope they wont ever do polls

they literally said that they are working on more changes to bomber dm, why should they stop because players voted a no yet again, lol.

Everyone who tried to do something for any game knows that players should not have a vote, lol, they will always vote no against anything that is not a direct buff for their own specific playstyle. Even if they don’t care about this specific feature - they still vote no because “there are things you should do instead of this, such as buffing my own specific playstyle”

Players... they only think about themselves... THEY'RE SPOILED!

It would just show the 70% of players who enjoy fighter gameplay wouldn’t want it reverted or severely nerfed to the point bombers would be pointless again.

The game doesn’t account for the reduction in the spar’s strength to withstand load. It’ll fail at 1g just as much as at 10g. Unfortunely, the only condition is that it reaches “black”

Also, @TheAnnoyingFinn was just turning at 205 km/h IAS there

It’s funny how the biggest problem before for damage were guns like 50 cals and their unrealistic damage they do.

And after all nerfs and buffs, they continue to be the best weapon you can have lol.

Easiest solution is gonna be to nerf 50 cals globally, but Gaijin will never do that, since they know who is giving them money hahahah

i still gotta say the damage models are fine, they just need to take more damage from fires and needs more drag when very damaged

So basically - despite everything ever said, FINALLY they were right.! Bombers were too easily shot down, NOW I wonder how much difference there is in say - FW109 and an IL2 in regards to the damage model, after all how many wings magically rip off, tails disappear into the sunset so on so forth? OH the miraculous AA 1 volley kill from a billion miles away. ( that’s my personal favourite - slight exaggeration lol )

I wonder how that stacks up against the new bomber damage model in comparison???

Yup that is definitely accurate.! 100% agree.

It looks like they removed the Ju 88 C-6 from the buff list.

How do they justify the exact same airframe having two different durability?
