If the winning team allowed someone to gather 2.5k SP and get to the battlefield with the nuke they don’t deserve to win

you see the Blackburn Buccaneer is such a cool bomber, everyone wants to be like it
It’s up to you to stop that person from getting those kills. Pretty simple. Your team failed. When I’m in game, I’ll press tab every now and then and see if an enemy is anywhere near the nuke. I’ll then position myself on their flank and try take them out. Call it situational awareness, call it teamwork, call it adapting to the battle around you.

And Tanks rushing blindly around a few square kilometers with unmanned machine guns while capturing white circles is realistic?
Lol

the issue with that is “cheap” nukes, I posted one earlier in the thread but Ive gotten nukes with a shocking low number of kills.
imo nukes should have a hard 12 kill requirement along side the 2500sp requirement or not count SP from scouting and assists etc
16 kill assists, lmao. Behold the Scimitars doof doof gun. When I’m not watching tennis later, I’ll clip a funny encounter I had with a Scimitar in Flakpanzer last night. To be honest, if you were actually damaging enemies, taking out their guns and disabling tracks and engines with those assists, that was a worthy nuke. Problem with some assists is you get them for doing pretty much nothing to the enemy. Sometimes I’ll get a kill assist for strafing a tank with the Me 262, which lacks a damn AP belt, lol.

Found another cheap nuke with the fox with 6 kills, 5 assists, & 25 spotting
I have more, but I haven’t been dropping them lately, just doesn’t feel right.
Less the gun and me choking hard lmao. I generally find the RARDEN really reliable and consistent if Im not skill issuing. Hell the other-day I was getting multiple kills at 1km+ ranges, Ill have to try and remember what battle that was, I was laughing my ass off
weirdly I struggle more with the kugleblitz, the ball turret gets me every time lmao

Looks like the score really adds up with assists and spotting. Checked the couple of nukes I got last night in Flakpanzer, and it was 8 ground kills / 4 air kills for one and 10 ground kills / 1 assist for the other, which is about the average for a nuke in the Flakky when I look back. Less kills if I’m capping and so on.
Just checked the replay, it’s pretty obvious reviewing the footage, but in the game I just started taking fire and wasn’t expecting something so tiny to be right there, was a bit of a wtf moment. Took me a while to register that there was a lil doof doof right there, lol. I forget how small the Scimitar is, probably because it really is pretty rear to see ingame.

Bro is acting like you can just know where a person is at any given time lmaoo
If he is eating through your team to the point he is going to drop a nuke you’ll know where he is.
Here is your problem, war thunder is a game it is meant to give you dopamine
If you load war thunder thinking “How am I gonna grind” you are playing it wrong
It’s a video game, not a job
I dont think you should be punished for shooting one down, but I do think the B29 should be more resistant when carrying nukes, every time ive been shot down or shooted down a nuke the B29 was destroyed INSTANTLY
Bomber survivablility has been a problem for a while, I got one tapped by a yak-9 when in my nuke plane and it was so annoying
Add de Mare’s “special” equation for APCR that produces numbers that are nowhere close to any real life performance, resulting in DM43 failing to pen Shilka and Hellcat and being generally way beyond useless.
I mean, just because an equation exists doesn’t mean it should be implemented, as it’s fairly obvious his equation is simply wrong.
Canberra bomber will be 7.7 soon (see planned battlerating changes), so maybe we’ll get rid of B29 in 7.7 nukes
It is such a good feeling when you do, too. Had this guy crying that it was his first nuke after I shot him down. Glad that the Me262 is 7.0 so it can deal with those pesky Canberra bombers when you get uptiered. It may not have an AP belt, but those rounds are lethal to aircraft, indeed.

Yeah had a really enjoyable one where I killed a nuke with a nord.
Then another one where I was the only one in planes amd had to shoot down 2 nukes in the span of 90 seconds with a mystere. Both times saved our team from defeat.
I will go see if I can find the nord clip

Found it. Seems like I misremembered and we still lost the nord match but hey it was like more than a year ago.

I hope, because every time ive dropped a nuke is just because ive been incontested, and ive asked someone i know who has almost a 1000 nukes and he just told me “random chance, nothing you can do to save yourself”
