is anyone up for some test-flights in WT?
Such as flying side by side with enemy bombers (1v1) and trying to shoot eachother down with the gunners, and trying to knock a plane out of the sky by bumping his wings (Like the RAF disabled V1s)

Saw an H6K shoot down a PBY on todays event.

Well, this is my official arrival. any hints for a newb?

Gun Convergence matters on every gamemode. Play smart, try to engage in packs or one plane at a time. Historical Realistic battles earn you more money but repair costs increase accordingly, I strongly advise to turn off auto-repair. Events usually have Realistic or Simulation Battles, and earn even more money and usually have a selected plane list of planes actually used in those battles.

Call all your friends and say you will go on a big trip in Africa and will be out of cell phone reach, call work and tell them you can't come in with a hernia (a corupt doctor is needed for this) for the next 6 weeks. Buy a ton a quick to make food. Close all curtains. Get started with your new favourite game.

[Musti]

Don't play US, get used to grinding, and some major derpness thats in this game, that and pretty much what everyone else said .

[siben]

To be honest, what is the point of the events? you get 5% more, sure, but the teams are often not very balanced.

[Butcher]

Set your gun convergence to 300m (on every aircraft).

As a German try to get to the 109s asap.

[Damaso]

Set your gun convergence to 300m (on every aircraft).

What is the advantage of that?

(my guns must be at 800 i guess..)

[PanzerKnacker]

Because close range convergence = massacre

[Hjaldrgud]

300 is the golden spot. 400 for major BnZ

[PanzerKnacker]

Wait what? Like, 300 is better than 400 but 400 is still good enough for BnZ?

[Hjaldrgud]

I use 400 for pure bnz in arcade,  300 for most planes in AB and HB and I even use 250 for zeroes in HB.

[Tankbuster]

Play as Russians. Their bombers are fighters with tank armor and many bombs.

[Yustax]

Do I use the p 47 -25 or the p47 -28?

Use both. The only difference with the other variant is just 1 km/h of difference.
