My Picks And Skips For The 2024 May Pack Sale

[@EdgeR2]

"don't spend too much money, this game isn't worth it" wise words from the gooner

[@sLyOnE_NYc]

Not spending money on this game is a waste of your time. You dont have to buy premiums, but you definitely need to spend some money.

[@sLyOnE_NYc]

@@gunner324 Lol, you can say nah, anyone who plays the game and tryna unlock nations, spending money. You cut time in half having premium account and spade planes twice as fast. Most people who play this game doesn't care about spending 16 or 24 dollars...

Ship sale advice: Don´t. Unless you are insanely interested in playing one of the most dead BR´S and gamemodes in the game buying a BB is just not a good strategy. If you do buy, the Prinz Eugen is extremely good at 5.7 meaning you will not see top tier naval matches, that thing used to be 6.0 and did just fine. The Marat from what i understand is also pretty good +bonus the USSR naval tech tree is very good overall.

[@koocoocroc1235]

Ship advice: Dont play Ships

[@jacksonespeut3692]

I love naval and my advice would always be to buy a premium destroyer if you’re starting out. 4.3-5.3 is by far the most fun naval bracket. Coastal stuff is fun but the skill floor is a lot higher

[@elijahmontgomery4146]

I’m no ace pilot, but I went from not having any clue about how aerial combat works, to actually getting kills in air rb from watching your vids. Just wanted to say thanks for turning an unenjoyable tedious experience into something I enjoy while grinding the air trees.

[@Falloutrip]

I think the main appeal of the Israeli Spitfire is as counter-CAS for ground RB players. It's dead easy to fly somewhat competently, since most players' instinct is to turn fight and don't know how to deal with something that out-turns them in their Bomb-laden F6F. It's MUCH better for killing planes than any early israeli SPAA. For that purpose I think it's great unless you're willing to suffer the Sakeen grind.

[@kingghidorah8106]

something about the fw190 D13 and the other doras is that the d9 is for low and mid altitude, the d12 is for high altitude but the d13 outperforms the d9 at low altitude, doesn't perform well at mid altitude and also outperforms the d12 at high altitude apart from turning and rolling better than these two because of the boosted controls. A friend of mine did some tests and the d13 is more powerful at below 2km and above 5km.

Is Prinz Eugen worth it? I've been wanting to get it but kept putting it on the back burner for a long time. But now its gonna go away, and just like how Des Moines once was in my purchase list, it got removed prematurely and nvr came back. IK BBs are bane of cruisers, but hows it against other cruisers, and hows it itself? good or bad accuracy? good or bad armor?

[@supershid464]

i haven't seen too much praise for it, as a lot of people did say that it is worth it without the sale, but at the same time if you want to play naval everyone recommends the Moffet

[@sussinhardrn1048]

It's at 5.7, which makes a BIG difference in naval. Most of the battleships and End-of-line battlecruisers are at 7.0. Since the Eugen can't meet them at all, you often just end up in 6.0 matches. The Eugen specifically has respectable armor, a solid mix of maneuverability being a heavy cruiser and top speed, and again a solid mix of hard hitting shells that don't take 30+ seconds to reload. It certainly isn't the terror it used to be, and you will need to be cautious engaging 6.0 cruisers with late-war AP. With that said, if you were to buy any ship for naval rn, the Eugen or the Pola are both arguably in the best spot rn.

[@terminallydrunk1900]

Classic hypocrisy in War Thunder, "i care about everyone but i rant way more about some specific nations because in the end i have some bias that i can't hold back."

The Wyvern is abolustely a boat, bleeds speed like crazy, but it's also insanely good at grinding. Not even 10 matches in and I got the last 2 planes I needed to go tier 5, while also pretty much always being with 2000+ points, so it'll do me well for the upcoming event. Got the P51 too cause I was in need of something better to grind my US tree, at least until early jets.

severe attention span reduction p47d28 and m1r climb better than the sea fury and also out dogfight many aircraft because they have the corsair 4b prop making them vety good at slow speed. However you can't just get to dogfight anything else, lose your altitude and become slow.
