never thought of using the objective to my advantage to get the right distance
I use it to estimate all the time since it was added
How to exactly know?
@@user-to5bb1st7wit says the distance from the cap on the screen when you look at them
"Tracers work both ways" This is taught to everyone in basic training
My ten tips for new players:
1) Your most important first choice: I STRONGLY recommend picking either USA, USSR or Germany first. China or Sweden are also wise options. Britain use solid shot exclusively on their early tanks, therefore I would avoid them until you get some experience playing. Japan is... an interesting choice, but I wouldn't recommend them for a first nation. Early game Italy and France are War Thunder on Nightmare difficulty -- you should avoid them at least until you get to BR 4.0 in another nation. Israel is hardly worth doing ever.
2) Take APCBC in WWII vehicles if you can ever get it, along with a few HE shells for blowing up thin-skinned trucks and armoured cars. Smoke shells are also nice to have, take a few. Never take ACPR/HVAP, it's god awful.
3) NEVER take a full ammo load on tanks, more ammo just means more risk of catastrophic internal explosion when (not if) an ammo rack is hit. Trucks and armoured cars which are so thin-skinned that if you take a hit you will probably be blown to kingdom come anyway are the exception, so take all the ammo you need.
4) For tank upgrades, always research repair kits and fire extinguishers first.
5) Treads and barrels are always good opportunity targets for enemy tanks where you don't know precisely where to hit. If the barrel is gone, they can't shoot; if the treads are gone, they can't move.
6) Always Test Drive a vehicle to know the strengths and limitations of it. And generally just use your noggin, it's a bad idea to drive a slow German tank destroyer with a fixed forward-facing gun into the narrow streets of a town, for example. Freely experiment with light, medium and heavy tanks and tank destroyers to see what your style is. But whatever your preference, always bring an SPAA in your lineup (even a rubbish one) to shoot down CAS planes. Taking planes of your own is good but not entirely necessary, you can play without them if you want.
7) Stop, Look and Listen. I cannot stress this enough. Binoculars ("B" key, default) are free and with them you can peek over banks and cover that would be otherwise too high for your cannon scope. Scan the horizon and watch for movement, and never drive into an area you haven't scoped out first. You can also cut the engine ("I" key, default) -- tank engines are very loud, and you can hear an enemy from quite a distance away if they've left theirs idling.
8) Armour is fine, but concealment is better, and hard cover is best of all. Never needlessly expose yourself, even in a heavy tank. Always scoot to a new point after getting a kill, unless doing so would expose you to enemy fire. Be aware that tanks can shoot through fences, trees, light walls and even dead tank husks if the cannon is powerful enough. And always remember the single most dangerous place you can be is atop a hill or bank; being lower is (usually) being safer.
9) Stick closely to teammates. Good teammates will watch your back, bad teammates will draw enemy fire. Lone rangers wind up dead quick.
10) Be aware that you will die and lose games a LOT at first, at this point you are playing against people who have many years of experience at the game and have seen everything. Never get frustrated and post shit talk over chat, nor should you ever react to toxicity or insults posted over chat, it's never worth it.
There's a filter in the game that makes spotting tracers alot easier, it's in post xf settings, it's the one that reduces the sun glare and makes the game a bit yellowish In the same settings there are also filters to reduce fog and to make night maps brighter. I would recommend switching between post xf as needed because the yellowish one will make fog maps more foggy, it's a bit hard to explain but you'll see the difference, this is how I avoid using that Nvidia thing and still see the tracers clear.
I think you are talking about Polynom thats the one I have tested and can see tracers easier
@@DawgIVLife yeah I think it is that one, very easy to see when people shoots and the tracers.
Pro tip : at higher br, angling is useless against darts.
Its actually worse, you can just kill a guy by aiming at his tracks and side scrapping the hull
Seeing “low tier tips” next to a picture of a tiger 2 almost makes me cry. I remember unlocking that thing for 380k RP…
Tips for simulator air player: For bomber.
If you play bomber or, aspire to play bomber.
Spotting a bombing target that are not Airfield can be little hard especially when the map is camuflaging the base.
Try look at the map and learn terrain feature.
Maybe the base are near a crescent shaped river bank, or near a twist of river flow. This help gave better general direction if for example you fly 8000 meter above the ground and unable to see anything clearly.
another help is just try look at tracer, sometimes the base would try to shoot at you and their tracer would help you
Thanks Dawg, keep up.the good work. Now, time for 10.0 tips :> AND YES SQUADRON PLZ
i had recently developed using the capture point tactic(on my own) since i kept on missing my shells so i had to come up with a way to estimate quickly
Great info, thank you.
One huge advantage DLSS2 has however, is that the jagged edges are nearly completely gone.
I play on a 1440p monitor and use DLSR to let the game render it at 4k and the using DLSS Quality/Balanced to let it render at 1440p so i get good fps.
Now you have the best of both worlds.
Tips :
1.When your teammates is capturing the objective, your task is to protect them from the enemies. Scout the potentially attacking position to keep your teammates safe.
2. If your teammates passes the objective, it can be a signal that they want to protect you while capturing objective by scouting the area from the enemy. So if you see this, Capture The Objective!
3. Light tanks (M3, the BT family, and Puma) are great to capture the objective from one point to another points.
Range finding off capture points is something I used to do when sniping in BF3. I miss that game.
As a 4 year pilot in this game that just got interested in ground RB, SPAA took me 3 matches to be effective with.
The one sturmpanzer lobbing HE from spawn 💀
As a major Sherman main I specialize in TnB torture
I am relatively new and my biggest issue is aiming. A lot of the times I die I actually get the jump on somebody but my shot either doesn't do enough damage or it doesn't penetrate. Its hard to remember how to kill all these tanks.
Yea it really is hard to remember all of the weak spots on different tanks. A general tip I would give is to remember where the gunner sits on the vehicles that you face and shoot for areas where the gunner will die first giving you the ability to take your time and line up a better shot.
Biggest tip I can give is if you come across a tank thats killing you a lot figure out the protection analysis of your tank and theres in the menu. Ie your a sherman facing panthers and tigers
Love this game but it is pain. I would love to be able to spend on premium and halve the grind for vehicles / SL but can't swing that
squadron would be lit
Can someone help? Once every like 10 shots do i get a one shot one kill, im usually shooting at where the driver should be and most of the times its "No penetration", but when someone shoots me 8/10 times its one shot one kill in the same spot that I shoot at. EXPLAIN
this is very helpful to me at 6.7 : (
would love the squadron idea, every squadron i join eventually goes away
because of squadron vehicle mechanics, most squadrons require a minimum activity per month so the members can grind effectively. it's common to get kicked if you don't meet your monthly activity.
"They will be on the screen *now*" *proceeds to promptly end the video*
Yeah they did come up on screen?
@@BepisTime Can't click on them if the video immediately ends
Btw, what’s the name of the squadron
Trying to find a decend squadron is a pain. If you start one, Id join up
Started one yesterday and its already full, But each month I will be getting rid of inactive players so others can join in.
How do you use the machine guns next to the gunner on the Sherman’s?
Wdym? On the turret?
Can you do a video off tips for air RB please.
Im a little bit noob on air Rb 😅
Wdym?
Can someone tell me how many meters is each line?
M42 is menace 8 air kills one game my personal record no respawn :D i would give a try to your squadron why not
Even though the duster isn't the best SPAA its been lowered in BR so much it turned it into a TD while still being able to shoot down planes
@@DawgIVLife i forgot duster is also M42 yea its TD i have it in most of my lineups for usa as 3-4 spawn to clean up lightly armored respawns :D but i meant M42 contraereo
Meanwhile, anyone playing low tier British usually being unable to apply this info lol
Rangefinding is useful though
I’m so bad at this game it’s painful to even tap the to battle button I need tips that are actually effective please help lol
I would join the squad
Which Munition do i Need for spaa to kill a Tank for all rank
Hvap or armor piercing rounds.
@@orionsalt8288 thx you
I'd join your Squad as long as it is used to unlock SQ vehicles. Wouldnt't join any otherwise
That would be the point of it basically it would be a first come first server and each month if you have zero score for the squadron you get booted for someone else to join
@@DawgIVLife sounds like the squad im in. id definitely join you mate if there is space. my username is "J A U F F R E" but if you have a full SQ its cool
Ground RB is literal cancer, until they do something about the ULQ graphics bs its a garbage game mode to play.
8.0 is not low tier.
i feel like low tier is early ww2 or similar.
Like 6.0 below is low tier.
6-8.0 is medium
and anything high
Did you setup a squad?
Yes it’s currently 128/128
What’s an spa that’s how much of a noob I am ahaha
