@@jameskarg3240 you are aware planes velocity is added to the velocity of the shell when it is fired right?

@@Pikachugamer-2007yeah, especially cause at top tier the only soviet shell that does any damage against planes is APHE. I mean I don’t play ground RB/SB so I only care about air to air and soviet guns at top tier suck a lot. GSH-23 is just a waterpistol and GSh-30 has 0 fire rate and deals no damage unless you use a stealth belt filled with APHE so if they’ll nerf APHE then this gun will become even worse than GSh-23. Next step might be another HE nerf so that DEFA guns on Mirage’s will also become useless (rn they’re amazing and do what all guns should do in air to air imo - they one-shot any plane no matter where they hit, they do no “hits”, they do only “severe damage” or explode planes immediately)
Except you already have a 45 in game for russia, the tank one. And despite the same mass and less KE, the plane's shell deals almost as much damage as an american 75mm m62 with 64 grams of filler. Simply put, they should fix the ns 45 shell, or explain what voodoo the russians did, for them to demonstrate why it behaves like so on postpen damage, and push this new overperforming on the tanks armed with 45mm too, breaking the whole game.
@@Dondolini94 probably because of higher penetration value cause value in stat card is for shells that was fired from stationary position so that the shell has ~800m/s initial speed but the plane is not stationary and has 400-600kph (111-166m/s) so the initial velocity of those shells will be ~911-966m/s so they will have around 15% higher penetration value. That’s just a theory though
With aphe, the planes armed with those hs.825 guns would be deadlier than any A10 or SU25 strafe. You are speaking of giving the Falcon's deadly aphe to a platform that have 2000 combined rpm on those same guns with 1000m/s muzzle velocity, handle like a butterfly and can attack the most vulnerable parts of a tank. Would love it, but would be disgustingly OP come on 😅. (Sagittario grinded me the whole rank and the one above btw, love that little angry hornet)
I saw Oddbawz' video on the APHE, was waiting to see your take on it. Whoever thought adding APHE to Russian aircraft was okay needs their head checked out.
Simply they bugged the shell and it deals the damage of a m62 american 75mm on postpen damage. The 20k 45mm on tanks have the same filler and more pen, on card, but performs more like the german 50. Also it's a deadly laserpointer, no dispersion to speak of. Ask for a bugfix.
5:05 Sturms in case you're curious that was Delta airlines. Ironic piece of info with the A350 here: The only two incidents its ever had have been aircraft collisions, which are usually exceedingly rare, so its weird it happened twice.
Hi Bo, I wanted to hop on here and say thank you for being such and inspiration for me over the years. I recently started making my own videos so that me and my friends can relive the fun moments. I love how you maintain your style of just playing the game with friends. Thank you again for years of work and inspiration!
As a Russia main, I've encountered Russian bias a couple times. One time while I was in a PT-76, a Wirbelwind shot me multiple times and did absolutely nothing. Then, a plane bombed me and my transmission was slightly yellow. Every time I encounter Russian bias it's in the low armor vehicles.
Just about any yak managing to out turn anything that isn't japanese or a spitfire is one such example, you shouldn't be able to out thrn THE ENTIRE AMERICAN AIR TREE up to 5.3, I mean all of them do have an edge at actually having a working engine past 4000m but still
Report the bug, if you test the shell on big turreted tanks like a t29 or a conqueror, you can really appreciate how overperforming the filler is compared to similar competitors, like the german 50mm despite almost the same filler.
@@trentenidk8431 3.0?? But that's where the British 57mm lives, and it can damage the KV1E! we can't have that, clearly it needs to be at 2.0, it's an old tank so we can say it's historically accurate!
I'm convinced that with the snail's history of tiering and balancing, that this is 100% their solution to getting people to play SPAA more. Also answering stick, Caernarvon is the highest BR tank i've got so far, paired the 9k with the OBJ 279.
literally the montage at the start of the video, which i assume is meant to show "how op it is", kills 5 or 6 spaa at the start and none of them is shooting at Bo... its not the plane, its the skill-less AA doing absolutely nothing
@@petrkdn8224 Yeah, Bo's montage isn't a good example. Other RUclipsrs have better ones. I, for one, am considering leaving Warthunder ground for a while because I have nothing higher than 4.0 in ground, and I don't want to seal club by going low enough to get away from it.
you are also now disinclined to wait for more teammates on the cap, as only the first person gets full points and everyone else only gets like 1/3rd i really do think points should take longer to cap, and score needs to be buffed without penalties to reward for time spent on the point, to better incentivize taking and holding zones
the airlines joke makes me think of my favorite fictional airlines (a shame their "CEO" was corrupt), but their catchphrase is something I still say on rare occasion because it's still fun; "I'm still in the air!"
over a few matches, after announcing I was "creating balance" i team killed a few yak-9k after they got 5 or more tanks kills. noone complained or said anything because they knew using the yak-9k was OP in a dirty way lol
But they were, all of them, deceived, for another Ring(Su-8) was made. In the land of Mordor(Snail HQ), in the fires of Mount Doom(The Vehicle Lab), the Dark Lord Sauron(Gaijin) forged in secret a master Ring(WHY DOES IT HAVE 4 ****ing APHE 45MM CANNONS???!?!)...
Glad I had some guy in game (cant remember his name) tell me to check you out again. Trying to grind low tier is pain atm when russians are against you.
this change is so overpowered. I had a match in the yak9k where I had 7 ground kills without rearming, 3 of them in one 4 bullet burst. It's actually insane. Even more insane when I say that those 3 vehicles i got in the one burst were a churchill, a panzer 4, and a sherman
I have experienced that there are forces in warthunder that if you want to do something you won't achieve it, an example is when i get a task for assists in air battles I either won't get hits and go down instantly or my hits are direct pilot hits and I get no chance for assists. I have downed 8 aircraft in a mach without landing
Oh, gad, is this that insane gun that IRL couldn't be fired without destabilizing the airplane, but they mounted a few anyway? This is like something Wargaming would do.
They joke about cig butts keeping things working, but the windshield wiper motor is only working because i put 4 in behind the computer to keep it connecting properly XD
Great video Bo! All these thing are just down right vicious now. Might have to switch my 9T out for the K... or take both... my 9T has been good for me lol
The name of this one should have been from the 22:00 mark, "I'm on fire. Sturms, hold me. Please. Please hold me, HOLD ME! I just want you to hold me!"
2:25 I'd say Bo's callsign would be PointBreak if anything. Rushing ahead in extreme ways under gunfire, to gain points and break his tank once he has the plane.
i was gonna be a prick and be all like "well actually 45mm already oneshots almost all planes" ......before realising there's now a 100 or 120 shot automatic tank killer, woof that's bad.
Yak-9k and the Yag Fighter-bomber. THE buggest examples of "Hungarian devs taking bribes to make Russias WORST performing aircraft and make them the most one-sided experience this game has to offer
Could you make a video of M2, the tank with more than seven 30 caliber machine guns or it could be the M2A2 with two machine gun turrets, one with 50 caliber and one with a 30 caliber please.
On the other hand, I had a 20 kills game today and killed an object 276 with a 5.7 Sherman after my friend accidentally brought us to 8.3 , so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
ive played germany 4.3 today and it's rough. Suddenly everything starts to explode around you and the Yaks have arrived, 10 straight loses and several enemy pilots bragging about +5 cas kills. Gaijin sure as fuck knows how to mess up things.
This APHE buff is great fun BUT Russia didn't need it. It's insane. One match for me was 9 kills total and another game i had was 15 kills total: 3 in a tank and the rest were in the planes. I have all 3 aircraft: Su-8, TIS MA and Yak-9K.
They need to fix HEFI on the P-63 and others' 37mm, it worked fone until people cried over crossing it's nose and learning the hard way, so gajin nerfed it and now it's a pellet gun, completely useless ammo
I have the SU-8....it's disgusting and that thing is a boat among boats. Wish I had a TIS MA. Very happy medium. 2x45mm instead of 4x but can still fight for its life. And 2 is simply enough to do the job in a click or 2. The Yak is evil still, but underwhelming in the click to win game. SU-8 is just Dakka for the sake of Dakka....and I'm ok with that. Edit: SURPRISE! Is the best reward in the game. I like it waaay better than a nuke. I giggle like a child every time.
For some reason for the last few videos you've uploaded, your videos have not been able to keep up with uploading itself at 1080p and i'm needing to pause every minute or so to let the buffering catch up first. Doesn't happen with any other vid on YT that i watch, only yours. Does YT have it in for you guys for some reason???
