I love floats!
Floats is mad fun! I remember when we just had 2 catalinas, 2 OSU's, the H6 and the F1. More and more float planes can only make for more variety and options. Love it to bits!
Good luck fighting BVs
How to have fun with regular floatplane when cancer BV is in it?
mimimimimimimi
was interested until saw bv238 in it. Well played Gaijin, well played.
During the last two months, I've found the BV 238 starting to be very vulnerable. It's not the beast it used to be. I've been shot down in one pass and have seen others go down as well from just one fighter. I've even shot some down from just one fighter. They nerfed it so one payload doesn't destroy a base anymore, but one pass from a Lancaster destroys a base. I've watched in wonderment how it can do that. And it's AA accuracy is waaayyyyy down. It's no longer fun and profitable to fly.
If you get uptiered you need more bombs for base. Anyway it is not nerfed enough, 5.0 BR is more suitable for that cancer
Floats is a fun event but there should be a decal, increased rewards, or something for playing it.
When BVs are allowed to in,just imagine the different colors of barrages.Just like the laser sword in the movie "Star War".
Add the F4F-3S Wildcatfish!
hrmpf :/ bv238 and h8k3 and sunderland but no be6? :/ i hoped i can use it for floats.
Why can not we use A6M2-N in this event? This is also a hiroplane!
