Not sure how but succeeded getting the B-52, at great expense (SL) and only 5 out of 6 achievement, but I did it. Wish I could’ve gotten the TU-95 with it, but given the crash course over these 11 days, I’m guess I’m fortunate. I got a taste of the Cold War age, though I’m told it takes years to get to that stage from BR1 through casual play. So I’m going to take a break from WT and get myself centered. Maybe I’ll get a gaming computer so I don’t play Ultra Low mode.
I got both and like 5 million SL, untill the cases came and i entered bankruptcy, still on this gamemode you normally get more than double de SL you spent.
I am in the same boat as you brother, I am a ground main and occasionally play air for CAS planes so this event was pretty rough at the start but as time passed I got to learn a lot about cold war jets and weapons tech and started getting decent.
I was also unable to grind Tu-95 along with B-52 as I had time constraint but overall I am happy that I was able to get one exclusive Bomber which might never be available again.
BOYS! I was able yesterday to finish the last achivment of the USA Pilot, and I finally get the B52, now I’ve both of the bomber, finallly. The best thing is that for the TU95 (3) free moodifications I get the 9,000kg bomb
While it was a “good/bad” April Fool’s Day event(I miss fun events vs “testing events myself”)
depending on your perspective, I did not even try it at all . .
3 Strike Rule . . .
I don’t fly Air RB, 2) I don’t play high/top tier jets and 3) I won’t ever use any
nuclear weapons playing War Thunder, so . … . literally nothing for me.
Yeah I would have liked to get a B-52, just to have, but not worth the trouble for
me personally. And from all the complaining I witnessed, I do not regret that choice . . lol
While I am not that interested in the Pakistani jet for the next event, I will do it anyway.
I get to play the mode/BRs I enjoy to get the 35k per stage and can do my BP tasks
as I go with very little stress about playing . . . that part I like the most.
It makes me sad to see so many players losing their minds over events and how to do them.
I would like to see more “fun” stuff and less . . . “pressure” on the players.
(Even tho, that pressure is largely put there by the players anyway . . .lol)
I do too, the issue is how many there are and how closely they’re all clustered near the frontline. Also the omnipotence of their radar control and their respawning mechanics. AI units should only be allowed to respawn from vehicle depots, and must transit to their desired location. Also, Osas and Flakrads should just flat out not fire when in transit.
I also wish they had an internal ammo counter which must be resupplied by logi trucks from ammunition depots.
Yes!!! They’re depots, theres no reason they should be all clustered near the frontline. They should be spread out over the entire map, with the current depot section being reserved for SHORAD, AI ground units and fortified frontline emplacements.
Hey heads up, there is a bug repport up for the fire/fuel cutt off system on this thing.
Currently not modeled, but would help against fires.
(No chemical EFS, good ol hydrolic fuel cut off with closing firewalls)
This or Starfighter. They zoom in with Mach 1.X and brrp you. Nothing you can do to prevent it. You can’t even climb, since they afterburn to bomber altitude in no time.
