I remember a few years ago when I first started grinding the Japanese tree. I thought that Japanese 7.7mm mgs were the worst in the game. Then they came out with the Italians and I rapidly changed my mind. I was constantly typing in game chat "Dear Santa, all I want for Christmas are Italian MGs that don't SUCK."
@@DEFYN Things improved for the Italians with the overall AP buff, but their MGs are definitely inferior to other nations. At the time of their release though, you had to be within 300 to 400 meters of an enemy to even register hits.
Gaijin listened to you, they put it battle rating 2.0. And it is still a strong kicker. Don’t play too much this thing because i am currently practicing energy fighting, but I encountered it on Bf109-B1 at low tier and it literally out speed and out climb me ! I lost the duel, but it was very interesting and useful for me, and it was a positive thing that I felt like i learned something from a mistake from my part. 😁
@@johnsmithers284 This plane is absolutely hilarious. I fought simultaneously against 3 people including boom and zooming P39 and ITP and a Spitfire doing some turning. I dodged every bullet coming for me, critical hit the three. Ki27 is just like Neo dodging every bullet in the matrix. 😂
Ok bro play the Ki-27. Go ahead and play the Ki-27. I'm not gonna lie to you DEFYN, it's completely fine that you are playing this Ki-27. Definitely fine with you playing this and WHEN ARE YOU GONNA PLAY THE CW-21??!?!?!? HUH?? Do I have to ask you in dutch???? HHHHHHHHHHHHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGGHHGHGHGGGGGGGGGGHHHH?!?!?!?!
Low tier seems to be the most fun part of War Thunder. There is everything : biplanes, monoplanes, fast fighters, slow fighters, turn fighters, boom and zoomers, energy fighters, bombers, and all types fairly well balanced in my opinion, every plane is very competitive. Oh, and as a French, low tiers provides the best and most competitive native French planes in War Thunder, which is so good when I see how bad the rest of the tech tree is. Dewoitine 501, 510, Caudron 714, Morane Saulnier 405 are very good !
Allow me to kinda disagree in the glass cannon part, I once flew back to base without a (full) wing (I think I was missing the entire right wing), while getting shot at. I was dodging a lot, still had plenty of maneuverability, but still, that was a lot of bullets flying at me
It can handle the damage itself somewhat well, the problem is that most of the time when you get hit the plane just implodes. Do keep in mind most guns are pretty crappy at the tier lel. You notice it when you get something like a chaika hammering you
@@DEFYN yeah getting hit with anything more than a 7mm is quite risky. Also about the guns on the ki-27 I once took out the whole crew on a b3c (he was the last alive) but no more ammo so I tried to kill his propellers with the landing gear but ended up just formation flying (nearly landed on his wing like 3 times) with him so yet to see if the landing gear is valid weapon... It's just a fun aircraft to fly, do kinda feel bad about the beginner players some times though
Most of them are novices even at lvl 100, since they played exclusively ground forces. I've received so much heat learning how to fly at lvl 100, even my black list gotten full because of it, no joke. I mean, I was half decent playing IL-2 Sturmovik a decade ago, but I just can't get used to mouse aim, it confuses my brain and there is precious little events for my vehicles in simulator.
Unless it gets matched up in a 3.3 match. Happens to me all the time when I play the F-1. And the 20 mms are not that good they can SOMETIMES kill stuff.
I played a few games in it last night... I have the same opinion of the plane... absolute joy to dogfight in... but the guns are sort of like throwing sand at the enemy. I had a 2v1 vs a buffalo and xf5fs... had like 30 hits and only got one kill, though the xf5f crashed shortly after. Crazy fun plane to fly.
Would love to see a Ki-43 review, just to see if gaijin actually modeled the 43-3's better engine or if they literally just reskinned the ki-43-2 from the Japanese tree
Defyn, you said boom and zoomers, and I am thinking of the He-100, can defeat easily the Ki-27, but I disagree, because it maneuver so well that dodging incoming fire is very effective, and as I play the He-100 sometimes against Ki-27, I can say it is very hard to aim at this plane while diving at more than 700 kph, despite my terrible aim, I think even for a good player it can be tricky.
Also a nice trick for low tiers if you are not using stealth ammo: if you want someone to stop running then do a short burst near them (even from 1km+ with 7.7's) so they see the bullets and they will go full elevator IMMIDIATELY. It works almost like AAM's on top tier
Love the videos man. I actually started uploading videos on my channel for low tier battles for the same reason. They don't get a lot of love. And well low tier is like going back to basics.
Hey, good content as always. I would like to make you aware, that some small youtubers were banned for TK in a rather similar situation as you were. Every sane person would agree with what you did, but some Gayjin "manager" might not. This counts both for Gayjin and Wargaming games, I've seen it in both.
thanks ) I have teamkilled one guy in the last 3 months, I don't think Gaijin would ban me for that. Considering there are people making TK montages that are still just walking around lol Thanks for the concern tho, I try to keep tks at an absoluet minimum
Ah low tier Japanese fighters, just as under tiered as the He-100 and P-36a. No seriously, Ki-27 should go up a little bit and the Ki-43's might just be at 2.7
Actually the CR-42 may as well be an early monoplane, it is the best energy fighting biplane but it can potentially lose turnfights with even Re 2000s, definitely high chance to lose against A5M and Ki-27s.
plz dont do this low tier no one know what to do and the br is broken plz do "low tier" from rank iii and above i just was grindin sl with the 109 g2/trop and saw too much battle when the enemy team had 0 - 3 kill total it will be nice to see video of u helping them and have a nice day
@@DEFYN I mean... as long as you keep your speed and try to energy trap it in a way of BnZ, you can win. But if you do loops like here, you're most likely gonna get fucked because I-15 is a ufo that has turn time 1 second and doesn't stall XD
DEFYN: 1v1 me bro
... But I don't even know how to fly...

Always nice to watch your vids DEFYN, always "good skill flying "and i have learned alot from you , thanks mate !
Glad to hear that )

I got an 8 kill game last night with it. It still wrecks shit

16:47 ahhhh, that energy trap with vengeance felt really good. Feels worth it despite 2500 sl punishment
Ok bro play the Ki-27. Go ahead and play the Ki-27. I'm not gonna lie to you DEFYN, it's completely fine that you are playing this Ki-27.

But it's the worse Chinese variant..
CW-21 soon :b
Big memes, I personally love low-mid tier wouldn't mind seeing more videos on it ahah

Love your low tier uploads you explain things a lot more. Tiers 1-3 really get over looked.
U can find a lot of high level players in low tier matches, not only newbies. Tired of jets too.
Most of them are novices even at lvl 100, since they played exclusively ground forces.

@@janchovanec8624 they can't be a problem to experienced players but they are to low level ones. This is a game issue in my oppinion.
Another really low vehicle that is has insane performance for its br is 109 F-1 at 2.3 which has a 20 mm which seems to instakill everything at its BR
Unless it gets matched up in a 3.3 match. Happens to me all the time when I play the F-1. And the 20 mms are not that good they can SOMETIMES kill stuff.
It’s an addition, not a substitution
- DEFYN 2019
that's better than nothing
@@GewelReal No, it's better than before.
Low tier videos are great! Thanks.
I would like to see more lowtier stuff!!
Altijd goede videos, hoop van geleerd, toppie !
Best part of the vid: 4:25 .
Fuck off lmao

it’s perfect for an aggressive turn fighter
21:52 Hunter F.7 you say
Yes! More low tier stuff thank you! It's kinda fun and relaxing both to watch and to play.
If YOU have potato aim, we're all doomed
Got to seal club once in a while. As long as it's not all that a player does.
lol at the 100 ping comment. Try playing this game in Australia!
was waiting for a comment like this tbh xd
DEFYN and his Thunder_2000 experience... :) nice
every time after I reversed the guy who was trying to teamkill me... The whole team just came toward me...
I feel you man ._.
Would love to see a Ki-43 review, just to see if gaijin actually modeled the 43-3's better engine or if they literally just reskinned the ki-43-2 from the Japanese tree
Commenting from the future, they jusy nerfed the Ki-43-III's engine power by a lot
lol this is the plane that made me grind Japan
low tier (1.0 - 2.0) is essentially a less hectic arcade tbh. i just don't "feel" the planes maneuvering, they are just UFOs
Defyn, you said boom and zoomers, and I am thinking of the He-100, can defeat easily the Ki-27, but I disagree, because it maneuver so well that dodging incoming fire is very effective, and as I play the He-100 sometimes against Ki-27, I can say it is very hard to aim at this plane while diving at more than 700 kph, despite my terrible aim, I think even for a good player it can be tricky.
Honestly this is on of my most favorite planes in the game, if i am looking for a easy no stress game i jump in this to kill some sweet reserve noobs
Also a nice trick for low tiers if you are not using stealth ammo: if you want someone to stop running then do a short burst near them (even from 1km+ with 7.7's) so they see the bullets and they will go full elevator IMMIDIATELY.
It works almost like AAM's on top tier
try out stuka d-5
Ay def you should fly the MS405c1 it kinda claps with that single hispano.
Love the videos man. I actually started uploading videos on my channel for low tier battles for the same reason. They don't get a lot of love. And well low tier is like going back to basics.
The best plane!
Enjoying low tiers
Did you ever fly air sb? If not will you try it in the future?
Played it a little, but wasn't a fan tbh
ah thats ok :/

Yes please! More low tier for those of us who are just starting.
Ah low tier Japanese fighters, just as under tiered as the He-100 and P-36a.
No seriously, Ki-27 should go up a little bit and the Ki-43's might just be at 2.7
What is your opinion on CR.42 or 32?
havent really flown them yet
Actually the CR-42 may as well be an early monoplane, it is the best energy fighting biplane but it can potentially lose turnfights with even Re 2000s, definitely high chance to lose against A5M and Ki-27s.
This was amazing :)
They bumped it to 2.0!
Still god tier tho
Here's a challenge do this in Re2000. You thought french 7mm were worse think again, Italian 7mm are worse.
I mean the italian ones are the only ones I considered to be worse, I just havent used them in forever
@@DEFYN Oops my bad I thought u said French ones were worse. Maybe my brain was just having WT nightmares.
French ones are actually quite good.
Atleast it has firerate
@@DEFYN I wouldn't say pretty good just okish.
that was great...thanks
Great video and commentary bro! You are a great pilot and I enjoy your (dont give a f@ck attitude).
You can't use those fucking words man there are kids here.
Cheers )
As crap as these sushi guns are, the italian mgs are actually worse 😅 its really sad but what can we do
plz dont do this low tier no one know what to do and the br is broken plz do "low tier" from rank iii and above
i just was grindin sl with the 109 g2/trop and saw too much battle when the enemy team had 0 - 3 kill total it will be nice to see video of u helping them
and have a nice day
the one plane that can beat Ki-27 is the I-15
Can it really though, i tried it before and i took a dump on it (and he wasnt bad)
@@DEFYN I mean... as long as you keep your speed and try to energy trap it in a way of BnZ, you can win. But if you do loops like here, you're most likely gonna get fucked because I-15 is a ufo that has turn time 1 second and doesn't stall XD
that italian biplane turn rate is HORRIBLE. on a loading screen info states "CR42 was the best turning plane of the war". Not in this game.
@RYAN JONATHAN MARTIN Fly the "fun to fly" Falco versus biplane soviets. Have "fun".
guns as bad as the KI27 are the shvaks, they are so bad its not even funny.
F8F1B Vid!
Good vid, where is the face reveal? LOL
Shvaks are disgusting
shvaks are godlike compared to these lol.
face reveal probably never, F8F also probably never lel
low tier fun tier
So in short Gaijin f**ked this things flight model.
Gaijin don´t care about low tier planes. Trust me.
It's more Gaijin screwed up it's Br. It's performance doesn't seem to far of the real plane.
Absolutely disgusting
Start new and u will have easy more then 8kills...
BRUH
