Whats the point with gold vehicles and twitch drop vehicles? -solved-


So now when i finally could use this nice Twitch drop vehicle i still realize its worse then the stocked one.

Have they forgot to fill in the gaps of the full star implementations or they just want you to roll with the Stocked one anyways so you can spend the orders on upgrades ? Then theres no point spending gold just to get some cosmetics but with lower stats of which you cant upgrade anyways
I dont get it ^^

Gold is for cosmetics, bit usually the stock one has better stats true… I have 3 pzivE in Moscow incl premium, now using 38t for fun, or pzIII…

I use F2, over my 109e, premium and gold orders are about cosmetics not stats I think, which is not a bad thing if you think about it.

Your vehicle is rly bad then compared to what it can be and the gold is pretty much useless. But if youre happy with your cosmetics and not performance then im glad for you but still its a sham in my book since its an big difference.
How ever prem vehicles are another breed i do understand though since they usually come with cool extra stuff
If they where let say access-able from the start then i would understand it. But to me rn i have no use of this Twitch drop vehicle and wasnt worth the long watch i had to do in my book ^^ with all due respect to the twitchers even if they where entertaining :slight_smile:

My take on this…give the damn thing all its upgrades

Don’t forget twitch drops come fully upgraded without you having to spend the now Bronze orders, that is a big difference too, but yes you are short changed stats wise…

well they are worse then my stocked one as shown here ^^ so basically they are not fully upgraded but just stripped down, prob engine parts got stolen by the paint workers or the paint is so heavy that the upgrades cant suffice

Dont you even know they are fully unpgraded?? All of gold and twitch drop vehicles are FULLY UPGRADED

I’ll say this just once more, GOLD PLANES ARE WORSE STATISTICALLY BECAUSE THEY HAVE MORE EMPTY SPACE, you would get the same result by upgrading a regular plane as empty space negatively affects performance.
Also the changes are so insignificant they don’t make a difference

Steiner. They are not worse.

No plane can teach top speed ingame
And no tank either.

The fully upgrade plane is faster to reach top speed and the 5% more mass upgrade make sustain more fire, and the engine power upgrade make it accelerate faster.

Just because the Stat top speed is inferior doesn’t mean it’s worst.

Coz it isnt

Again, you can’t reach that 540/559 speed in-game. But, the upgraded one will accelerate faster to it.

Ok show me an stocked BF-109 F2 stat pls so we can compare


Like said it could be that its not filling the info in but im not sure about that.
And even if they wont there is no text next to the Twitch dropped or golden vehicles that says they get the bonus so idk about that. I feel that the Twitch vehicle performed worse then my regular stocked one but hard to say rn…ill prob fully upgrade it just to check it out…

But that top speed is an indicator on what acceleration you will have and you will outmatch the one with lower overall then yours so its something to be considering anyways. And when it comes for bombers that also matters for the matter of survival and reload. The A20 is one example of this and is even hard for an Fighter plane to catch up with it

Nvm found a way

Sure the speed goes down but the turn rate and climb goes up though which indicates that the bomber wont get the perks only the mass and armor ?

its all because of +5% extra mass.

overall its a better plane. dont care much about a top speed you cant reach

I do care about the speed since its an indicator what i can do so to speak no matter what your top speed is and that you cant reach it

go to train section.

spawn a plane, dont move and count how long it takes to reach a ā€œpossibleā€ top speed @110 wep
then do the same with the same model, but upgraded.

Yes goes much faster with the stocked one with much more effect. 1 second per TAS for the Upgraded one and half a second for the stocked. And the armor just felt the same by trying them both out in combat

Special vehicles are not for fighting, but for collecting.
Its like catching Pokemons.
You want them all, but you dont want to use them.
You are just happy having them in the center/hangar. :smiley:

oh nvm i just realized that the turn and climb is a bit better though with an margin of which i didnt see ^^ So guess they are upgraded after all xD

Also top speed I guess is actual limit before wings fall off, I got my F2 easily to 550 without a steep dive, but it is literally impossible to pull up… optimal speed for majority of planes is 3-400, unlike WT we don’t duel at 5k TAS if you are lucky 1000, but most time 300-500 as planes trying to get cover from ground…

not true.

i dived stukas and fw190’s at 980 tas befor.

example:

the ingame top speeds of vehicles and planes are not acchivable yet in the game at normal speeds

a tiger 1 for example, that have 44.87 top speed ingame stats can only reach 30km/h on a paved road.

How did you manage to pull up, or did you nosedive into ground, most planes have stiffening controls over 500?

nose dive at 11 000 meters . the plane will try to correct over 700 tas and starts to be a challenge to keep it diving.

but the point here stays, no damage will occure to planes at 1000 tas speed.
only flaps after a certain speed if you open them on fight mode.

Question follows…how deep can you dive with it under water :wink: How i understood Tas however is the actual flightspeed not km/h which can confuse it perhaps, but i could be wrong on that since im no airman expert. But makes no sense how ever since it shouldnt be that far in between but margins depending on the wind ofc

The km/h advantage to me i see only as an acceleration advantage indicator + that my topspeed will be faster anyways in flat runs overall which means im going to catch you up faster or being able to fly away
