Hey, everyone! I've got a new tips and tricks video for all game modes of ground forces in War Thunder. Check it out! czcams.com/video/MGBTTiuz9GA/video.html
HOW CAN YOU EVERY THING I SEE NOTHING AT ALL
A few extra tips
1. Press C to look around corners
2. Press I to shutoff engine, most useful when in a concealed spot
3. Angle/Sidescrape
4. Do not be in front of the advance
5. Never trust your teammates
Yes, Never Ever Trust your teammates
That last one hit me. I realised that quite a while ago :D
I remember when I was infront of a teammate and he was watching the other road. I was shooting at some SPAA far away and he turned around to try to get the kill or assist. As soon as he turned an IS4M came down that road he was watching and killed us both from the behind.
One time I was flanking the enemy at the point and some dude got mad that I wasn’t taking it so naturally he started shooting at me which revealed my position and got us both killed.
yeah i play as my team mates are bots, some times i even think they are
more tips
-use your rangefinder when you are waiting for enemies, i started to do this a while ago ae when you are in the flank waiting for people to come and it works.
- if you doubt aim for their cannon, is not a good advice if you aren't a good shooter, it may give you time to decide what to do against hard targets.
-Use smoke as a fake bait, in fast tanks such as m24 you can throw few smoke granades then go around covered by a hill and take the flanks of people waiting for the smoke to fade.
- turret better than hull, if you hear an enemy in your rear is better to turn your turret than moving the whole vehicle, you make less noise, and some people wont see you until is too late.
Shooting while moving is a huge challange for me considering that the terrain itself has more up and down than the ocean wave
Open custom battles. Practice against the AI. It is very forgiving & you will get it.
Sometimes it may come to luck if away is really bad when youre racing across bumpy terrain
wait, you guys dont have stabilized MBT's
@@Bruhsound4.0 wait, you got no life?
No offense lmao
yeah but it feels nice when u land a hit
1. The snail does what the snail does
2. Your teammates are you're greatest enemy
3. Revenge kills are everywhere
4. Spawn camping is bad but we still do it
5. Buys bushes
6.if it fits it fits
7. Bushes = tanks
8. Af camping and strafing is bad but we still do it
9. The game is free and really nice
10. Killsteals are everywhere
11. Ulq is op
H L if it's AB then bushes are mostly useless imo
@@soto1649 i swear i would play ulq if it had the antialiasing option open. It just looks so bad without antialiasing
If Gaijn doesn't want me to spawn camp, then they shouldn't punish me for not doing so
My ten cents of tips. 7+ years of playing. How time flies.
1. Open custom matches & practice fighting the AI in the tiers you will be fighting negative -2 to plus +2 or more, this is better then doing real battles. It will save you SL & give invaluable map intelligence. The AI is enough to learn from & is very forgiving. This works with Ground, Air & Marine.
2. Learn your maps. Custom battles are excellent for map familiarization & exploration. So, when your in game your not tempted to go & explore.
3. Again go into "Protection analysis" familiarize yourself with your vehicles & the opponent vehicles.
4. Again USE YOUR BINOCULARS! you can see more & faster. The seconds matter in battle.
5. Train your crews beyond the basic & invest your crew points.
6. Only you matter, however if possible, cover your teammates but do not take unnecessary risks. DO NOT TRUST YOUR TEAMMATES. They will get you killed to get the enemy to spend their shell on you then properly baiting them/smoking or glancing/bouncing a blow.
7. Learn how to deploy smoke or countermeasure appropriately that will not handicap your self or your team.
8. When you come to a corner where there is a opponent on the adjacent side, bring yourself close to the corner. Press C to allow you to peek around the corner. If your confident with your vehicle expose a steep angle of armor this will bait an undisciplined player to take a shot, likely it will bounce. Or use smoke grenades.
9. When your critically damaged & on fire DO NOT EXTINGUISH THE FIRE IMMEDIATELY. Attempt to neutralize the threat prior to fire extinguishing. You will last longer.
10. Do not revenge kill. Remain tactical & objective orientated. There time is coming.
11. Seek the high ground always but do not expose. Do not crest hills. Use cover & again use your DAMN binoculars to see over the hill.
12. When you’re in a fighter plane in RB or other. Escort your bomber if possible. Gaijin mostly puts you out of useful range of a successful escort, so dive to build energy/speed to try to make up for the distance.
13. If you’re a bomber climb! you need '20,000 feet or equivalent to have a chance or do what you want. People are unpredictable. Plus, watch for UFO Japanese planes. You will need a guardian angle.
13. Know your plane & weaknesses!
14. Helicopters are better off in realistic battles. But careful as soon as you spawn some one sees you before you see them.
15. Check out the mobile side of warthunder & play in the officers club.
16. If you don't have tools or ammo, go to your or a check point, where you can repair or reload.
17. Respect your opponent. You will engage them differently.
18. If you feel your team is reckless remind them to "fight smart" you may change there gears from casual to engaged.
19. Try not to create a traffic jam in spawn let the faster vehicle go first. Be courteous.
20. Do not ever go with a full load 20 to 35 rounds max.
21. Do not ever go with minimal fuel in airplanes. Rather flame then blow.
22. Learn the holy trinity of tank designs ! Speed, Armor & Fire power. If possible research how armor was deployed/maneuvered it will also help. Side note same with planes.
I am rambling I can go on but I should stop.
please do go on! do you have any tips on how to not get up-tiered all the time?
@@jadinosaurus A theory of mine is to play non aggresively, not to gain points quickly. Or take on a lead role. Try being a support unit. Or straight up play like crap so the games algorithim will be forced to downtier the player. Or if your uptiered take the oppurtunity to explore the opponents vehicles, shoot true & well or just head back to the hanger. Oh keep in mind the game will force uptier you to keep the challenges coming & allow player growth to take place.
@@daviscampbell9020 that's strange because whenever i play my british 7.3 lineup (centurion mk3, fv4202, caernarvon) i always get uptiered to 8.3 even if i play crap! but i'll try again some time soon thank youu!
@@jadinosaurus no guarentees, I only hope it works out, good luck.
Typical weak spots:
- Inbetween the tracks and hull on the side
- Rear/engine
- Driver window
- Gunner's sight
- Turret lid
- Between turret and hull
Exceptions:
- KV series tanks
- Mauser
- Most WW2 era tank destroyers
- Most WW2 era heavy tanks
What to do against exceptions:
- Good luck
- Disable gun, make them immobile
THANK YOU
I managed to bounce an american T34's gun, somehow it penetrated the top of it's hull and I killed it- It was with a 4.7 Japanese vehicle too.
Bro i followed youre instructions
The enemy got more kills than me
@@yeetnoodle9668 😭
@@aleksasarmes8160 Skill issue💀
A general rule of thumb for newbies: tanks generally have weaker armour on the sides and rear, so always try to flank around your enemy and keep your front armour facing your enemy as much as possible.
If your rlly low teir like br 1.0-1.7 armor basically doesn’t matter on most tanks so if you don’t have a good sense of what your doing often sitting sideways will make it harder to kill your crew in one shot as no one knows where to aim
Idk if I’m just getting up tiered or I just have really bad cannons but when I shoot people from the back or side I can never seem to actually deal damage to anyone
Also, it’s important to get the first shot off. If you stay behind cover and the enemy doesn’t notice you, pull out of the corner and take the shot. You are more likely to win the fight with that vehicle if you get the first shot off.
Or once you have the tiger,.. learn to angle your tank correctly and a lot of shells 75mm and below will bounce
Another tip: bring a max of 25-30 shells. Unlike the man in this video who brings 60.. IN A TIGER 2????
Yeah it’s like this dude wants to get ammo racked
yea lol the tips were good entry level tips but the gameplay had me cringing especially with german tanks
What about in a tank that even MGs can penetrate? I mean it's gonna die one way or another.
@@cyberdiver7076 would you rather lose 1-2 crew and take some component damage or straight up die? I'd take the former.
on the other hand, on things like AA, you really have to see how much ammo you generaly need. If you need a full load, bring a full load. For example, I always bring a full load of ammo on the Ostwind II because even if I'm conservative with it I tend to run out
@@Koyomix86 what does it mean to get ammo racked? I'm VERY new
1:03 get gaijined
Dude I was stunned XD
I hate these devs😡
So, summary:
1. Being spotted first vs spotting the enemy first is most of the time the diferrence between winning encounters, so play stealthy, have awareness and use binoculars
2. Git gud
3. Git gud
4. Learn the tanks aka git gud
5. Play meta vehicles
6. Grind until you git gud
So basically just git gud
Idk lol, I think you just need to git gud
how to git gud faster?
@@Volker109 so basically you just
@@JohnRoblox96 thanks i did just
I would also include to not max out your ammo capacity, as the more ammo you pack into your vehicle, the more chance it will have that somebody is going to ammo rack you. Personally I always keep 25 shells on me and I portion it as 3 HE shells and 23 other shell with highest penetrating values. As how I experienced, 25 shells is quiet enough, esspecially in higher BRs where everybody is basically just 1 shotting eachother with HEATFS or in the case of the british, APFSDS (which isn't always killing you or your target always in one shot)
I usually take around that much, but keep an eye for ammo rack displacement, for instances Type 74 is best to carry only 17-18 bullets (not sure if it`s 16 and one on the gun or 17 and one on the gun), if you place more it starts filling the frontal rack, and we all know where that goes... stuff like IS series i usually don`t carry more than 10-12 cuz reload takes too long, so I usually don`t use them all in game. Also using HEAT above 9.0 is a nightmare, believe me. Learn to use APFSDS. Some tanks have almost triple protection in same plate from HEAT or HESH, than with APFSDS, cuz thats how composite works, and thats without considering the Bricks of ERA, that in lower tiers 8.0 to 10.0 usually only work against HEAT (only the recent ones like kontact 5, etc, protect against Kinetic, aka APFSDS), so even more protection also the slower speed of HEAT round that makes it drop faster, so less accurate.
few more tips
1) learn to snipe (dont be fooled by "coward noob camper" stuff if your camping site covers a good portion of the map your literally locking the enemy especially if it covers 2 cap points)
2) flank if possible
3) dont clog an area (ive seen literal traffic ingame like bruh were in a war here)
4) never trust but still try to save your teammates (seriously dont feed enemies with SP i see people get discouraged for not getting many kills let the enemy side deal with it)
5) tag heli direction and never ignore them
But how zoom in more like binocularss I can’t see and snip
@@tide7321 lol yea sadly bino has no zoom
all bino is locked on X6 scope
your only hope of zooming is the gunner or commander scope if your tank has one
even then wish that your tank has anything more than X6 lol
New player here well to War Thunder anyway was playing World of Tanks, Planes and ships for the past many many years quit last year and found a need to get back into it except now I tried War Thunder out game is a way different beast and has been fun thanks for the tips the refresher will be helpful.
How is grind going?
@@user-fq6wy1tp9q I went from grinding hardcore to just just playing for fun tanks is it got a bit crazy cause I still have trouble seeing some tanks with the bushes. Now as for flying that seems to be where I am most comfortable I love flying in realistic mode just watching how the battle flows then joining in and assisting. Although be careful using French planes that ammo load out at the beginning surprised me how often I kept running out of ammo.
@@Osinivos4 I'm Soviet main (highest br I have is 9.3) and , unfortunately, I had to grind Soviet planes, there is no way french planes have less ammo that Soviets. I had to fire one round by tapping 2 bc 1 sec bursts wasted too much ammo ( 29 rounds of high caliber).
Welcome To War Thunder, former WoT player. You'll enjoy the fact that there is no RNG on whether or not your shot will fly where you shot it
@@GustSergeant thanks
I just found this game after seeing it constantly on YT shorts - fallen in love with how realistic it is and (at the moment at least) how fair the F2P is with not being TOO stingy at least at the start, thanks for the tips! been having fun in arcade while I learn the game and getting ready to go into Realistic for the competitiveness that I love
good quality advice. ive been playing for years but recently have gotten 3 friends into the game and this video will be a great help to them. I would also say that it is advisable for new players to find an experienced player to latch on to. this helps them learn all the little techniques on the fly in real situations.
0:31 concealment and cover
2:18 firing on the move
3:13 always be on guard
3:49 know enemy armor values and weak spots
4:26 use your binoculars
5:09 pick a good plane to use for air support. Learn dive bombing.
6:10 just play. You need to learn over time!
another tip i myself know.
1.for tanks starting a battle dont rush in and then die. find a good spot to sit in but not too long since enemies will triangulate your position through scouts, hit markers, aircraft spots etc.
2.for lighter tanks etc chaffee or the puma never go head to head. you will die. Try flanking and hitting them from the achilles heel even if you cannon can penetrate their front ( you prob get gaijoobed with non pen, ricochet etc or just miss)
3. if you are unsure where to shoot (example is-7) always take out the gun or breech. This basically makes sure he cannot kill you if you miss (take in mine 12.7mm machine guns for light armoured vehicles)
4. do not ever get greedy for kills. Sure Target Destroyed is satisfying but rushng out to finish someone most likely will get you finished. Keep in mind there are enemies everywhere. They just are waiting.
5. for aircraft doing CAS always pull up about 400+m altitude when diving. If you are using planes such as the ju87 use the airbrakes (default is H) and also set your throttle to 25 percent to 0 percent. This makes sure you do not get so fast that your planes becomes a v1 rocket that cannot maneuver. try using 0percent throttle because it reduces the sound your aircraft makes= you can prob jump some poor spaa.
6. for everything in war thunder. Always be conscious about your surroundings. all the time. This reduces the chance someone gets to jump you. and reduces the noob starter mistake of tunnel vision.
7. your settings. Disabled the settings which enables grass, bushes etc to show up in your binoculars and gun sights. This emoves the annoying grass that blocks your sights. if you are that tryhard, set your quality to low since in low quality all the realistic effects such as grass etc and shading are gone.
Thanks for making this, some new people might find it useful, and some veteran as well
01:03 ??????????
GET GAIJINED
Lol
When getting straffed by an aircraft turn sideways or if they are close go toward the aircraft. It will limit or eliminate the amount of shots land on your vehicle. Unless the top of your tank and the front is well armored. In that case do not turn your weak spot toward the fire.
Learn the optimal angle for your vehicle to make the most of armor.
Unlock parts and fpe before any other mods so you are not made useless but minor damage.
Do not buy things on sale just because they are on sale. Test drive everything, look in the vehicle info at pros and cons and vehicle usage. Also google what people have to say about different vehicles. Great vehicles are made into turds by having a high repair cost or changes to BR.
Want to be op with a premium vehicle? There is one sure fire way. Find a new (the newer the better) vehicle that has dominating characteristics and play the heck out of it. Use it as much as you can before it's BR is changed. It will be in a higher BR after a while and it might still be good or it will be nerfed to the dirt.
Do not rush to higher BR. Enjoy the game and take advantage of lower costs to save SL. You may feel rich but your SL will deplete fast in higher BR.
Do not be a mode zealot. Some vehicles are fun and work great in AB some in RB. Be ok with switching to where the fun is.
Weak spots are typically on the sides and rear of tanks. Do not bother learning every tank just learn the exceptions. Projection analysis can be great for this but so can AB. Play in AB and the cross will show green when you can pen.
When trying to ambush or use cover do not be an ostrich. Just because you can not see an enemy does not mean they cant see you. Do not bury your head in the sand. Instead have awareness what parts are hanging past walls or what enemies might see from different elevation.
People will snipe you through windows (you should do this too).
You can shoot through walls and some buildings. Some will not even be destroyed. I hope Gaijin fixes this so anything that can be shot through is destroyed but this is likely not going to be fixed.
I mean it works but whenever I'm playing at tank with no armor in the front nor sides it kinda hard to stay alert when the enemy can kill me at all 360°
yep usually when playing light tank, its just a hide and seek game, if they find you first, youre done
@@faridmahdis8909 this is basically true for all 4.7 and lower british tanks but there guns are trash and the mobility is kinda meh on most of them
@@jungletroll3844 British have great penetration but paper armor early on bit late game they are broken
Thankyou Ive grown fond of the Tiger and Panther once i utilized TO ANGLE THE DAM TANK!! Lol Tigers are paper sitting straight . NEVER square off .
I've been playing for two years but still completely forget to shoot on the move a lot. Yet, when I do it, I can get great results. Just goes to show than an experienced player can have a big weakness.
Im struggling with game alot coming from WOT since they ruined it. Not used to this . I try training the crews up but still getting wrecked. Very cool game its just alot different. Trying the Swedes cause i like tank destroyers ...they seem harder to use
nations i'd recommend playing are the USSR, and US. China if you want a mix between them
Crew basically doesn’t make a difference until literal HUNDREDS of hours to upgrade them high
Also Idk what madness WOT does but here Sweden really only have Guns in terms of tank destroyers, u still paper, Soviet and Specially German TD`s are the full package, Heavy armor and decent (for the russian ones) or amazing guns (Germans) still don`t pen as much as swedish ones spetially considering some of them have 400 mm HEAT at 5.0 (yeah Ikv 103 I`m talking about you) but if it pens it kills cuz the ww2 TD`s from Germany and USSR have explosive filler so once inside it literally blows up inside the tank. Hence instakill.
PS: the left German TD lineup are glass cannons, so more mobility but no armour, the right TD lineup on the other side.... Armour and Guns, just look at Jagdtiger and You`ll Understand
Personally I play France, but Japan isnt a bad choice either. You made a good choice going with a minor nation
Dude I got a full-speed on the move 2000m one-shot on a guy the other day, shit my pants. Basically across the map lol
i got a shot 2150m with the type 75 on a jagdpanther
Remember, its just a game. If you fail, you fail. Make sure to have fun.
Exactly -- at the end of the day -- we're all just driving around in cartoon tanks.
@@davidmk2902 lol thats why i quit playing almost two months ago.
How am i supposted to have fun if i get 1 kill and 3 deaths in the literal 1st rank? If i go further in the tech tree, i wont be able to survive 40+ seconds with each vehicle.
@@tfishappeningxd5915 play arcade. When I was new no name tag is one of the biggest obstacle in RB
@@ariq4209 ive always played arcade bruh
before watching this I had barely any clue what I was doing ngl, real helpful thanks
Gee whiz Tanky, you've improved in the years since this one. Your sound quality especially. Good job mate.
Got 40k silver lions my first match(4kills) since playing arcade up until 6.3 br, second match i got -17k. Seems like you can go bankrupt quick if youre bad.
That's basically all the words Sun Tzu wrote in the book Art Of War
Shooting on the move can be difficult with tanks that don't get a stabilizer especially when using tanks from certain countries under the Vietnam war era such as Russia
Well im most certainly not the best player out there but i think these tips make the biggest differences.
1) Corner checking. Use C to check around corners instead of driving blindly. This is something so important and you gotta make it an habit.
2) Limited binocular usage. Use binos just to check if something is a tank or not and when fighting on long range. In cqc using too much bino is a disadvantage since it limits your line of sight.
3) Know your tanks strengths. If your tank has long reload dont wander alone. If your tank is fast flank. If your tank has well shell velocity snipe. And know enemies weaknesses (stuff like overall armor layout included). For example most heavy tanks have 10+s reload. And mostly weak on lower glacis plate. Centurion series have high penetrating high velocity APDS shells with stabilizers but they are slow.
4) Dont lose your cool and play for fun. A lot of skills in this game is earned thru time. Like ranging spotting map knowledge tank knowledge etc. You will get a hold of these with time.
5) Blame gaijin when you die and hop into the next match. Dont care about your stats since this game doesnt really make sense and isnt balanced at all.
Yeah these are my experiences from 3 years of wt.
1:07
Love that "ricochet"
Remember that local security (good cover or concealment) often comes with long range exposure (from a nearish hill or from passing planes).
It’s a nasty aspect of WT map design; “let’s make a cozy spot here and a nice sniping spot into it here”.
This is much like how you find many nice shooting spots have an indestructible bush, inconvenient rock, or small bump that forces you to overexpose yourself to shoot.
warthunder things that prevent u from grinding:
1. target undamaged
*you probably see where i got stuck*
As a new player, my biggest struggle is not knowing where and when your enemy would show up
You need to play and learn the map in few months, you will know almost every location in almost every map
That’s the point tho
Thanks, War Thunder is a frustrating game for me, but fun anyways. In a game I would rather be consistently bad or consistently decent, but in War Thunder I sometimes can't even destroy an enemy in an entire match and other times I will survive an entire match in one tank with a few kills.
WT uprates me until I'm ready to stop playing then sticks me in my own tier so I can double ace. Then back to getting pooped on for 20 games. Lol they put me in my own br just often enough that I don't hate the game, but not often enough for it to be truly fun.
Awsome vid. Went from getting destroyed every game to getting atleast one kill or assist with every spin.
I just started playing today and I'm trying to not be a sweat and just have fun and i got a great advice (don't play to unlock but unlock things as you play)
“Shoot while on the move”
Me without stab: “weeee, tenk go bouncy”
An army study conducted in 1954 showed that the tank that shot first usually won.
yes that is pretty much accurate , in 2nd world war tank crew survival rate was 80%
1:02 Gaijined moment
Im a new player, i started memorizing tier 2 tank armoring so i can easily take em
Out. I think armor analysis is very useful
Most tanks with high profile store their ammo on the side of their hull. Most tanks with high profile turret store their ammo on the back of the turret. Tanks with lower profile usualy store the ammo below.
Would you have known those tanks were in those bushes without the red indicator showing up at 1:21?? I'm honestly amazed at that little clip.
thank you, been playing this game for quite a while and iddk i been pretty bad at it lol.
Map knowledge and situational awareness are 2 most important things. Then comes vehicle weak spots knowledge and aim.
Pro tip: Use the Il-2s as cannon cas... maybe take the 250s for really heavy tanks or rockets to deal with AA but your main waepons are your cannons top down :)
I've been playing on and off for years but only got serious in the last few months... actually grinding and getting into the game.. honestly the 2 biggest things that have helped me are 1) USE RANGEFINDER! And if you have time, adjust your sights manually. Accurate shots are everything. And 2) making sure that I don't field tanks that are too far below the BR of the match.
1:03 what the fuck was that bounce lmao
Literally clicked on this for the Rick and Morty reference. Thanks for the info lol😂
This video could use a sequel. Headphones to locate tanks by their engine sounds. sidescraping corners. using MGs to kill planes or just get free kills when they crash. Which enemies to prioritise in a group. When to fire and when to let them pass. There's probably a few more meta tricks that have developed recently too.
for me on 1 v 1 situation i always target first their cannon barrels so they cant shoot or pop some smoke then flank them on their weakspot
Hey Tankenstein, I've got a question that also doubles as a video idea, if possible:
Started the game with this video, and came back to it almost a year later, now super into this game (1,314 hours so far). I've played ground up to 9.7 US, and despite getting decent around 6.3, I've since plateaud and don't know how to improve. I'm just statistically in perfect mediocracy-- 50% win-loss rate, ~1 KD, etc, and want to get really good like some of my friends (who've played the same amount of time) but just don't know how to improve. Learned a lot of the maps, learned strengths and weaknesses of certain weapons--stuff that just comes over time--but still don't do too well at anything above 6.3.
So here's the video idea, which stems from a question of mine: "How do I get better in War Thunder, as someone who already has played for a long time."
I say this because there are currently no videos on the topic; All of the videos are for new players, stuff like learning ammo rack spots, pressing "i" to turn off your engine, angling your hull, etc. I've noticed you mentioned in many of your videos that you've improved since the last few videos, and wanted to know how you do it, or what overarching goals to reach for.
Been watching for over a year, and still watch every video. Keep it easy man!
Just stop being gay! xD
I play War Thunder on and off and had to figure all these out the hard way lol. The main thing that infuriates me in War thunder is spawn campers. Gaijin claims they have a spawn protection, but that's only artillery.
“Learn to hit in the move”
Me: *barrel/sight goes from pointing at target, then ground, then sun working 0.0002 seconds*
I find playing dead works in sim. I literally hid right in front of someone when I ran out of ammo by hiding directly behind a dead tank and not moving.
I love how that 105mm Sherman was about execute him and the clip just cuts there
Cover vs. Concealment, good tip
Ironically, I got a war thunder ad watching this.
One of the best tips i can give is try to determine when the enemy will shoot at you in a duel, so you can move slightly just as you think he is about to fire... Move the turret, rotate the hull, spam with MG and he might miss the weak spot he is trying to hit
Does machine gun fire make them lose aim ?
@@squidy4082 I makes the smoke and particles splash in the direct line of sight and bunch of bullets make some people stop functioning xD shoot gunners port , i always aim for the gun and spam at center or front turret, perhaps there's a test someone did on the net about where is the best to spam MG
GL HF
especially with bouncy russian higher tier tanks, you can wiggle your hull and turret while reversing (hold s while afternating between a and d, combined with left right mouse movements) and bounce a lot a lot of shells. This is especially good when versing germans and americans, but not so much the british as APDS just doesn't tend to bounce very often.
New to War Thunder, excellent video brother!
Started Playing again, and thanks for the tips. Still a bad shot/aim... but well.. guess have to fix mouse sensitifity..
But this might help me improve..
great show mr T, but where is the smoke! I love smoke and i love my tow cable. No one seems to ever mention tactical use of smoke! A jumbo with a towcable, smoke shells and few dead tigers can hold a flag for a long time!
1:04 never seen such realistic shell bounce, damn
Did you ever make the video on how to shoot on the move? Great video!
Tip number 8: always use german tank to get credit (german never suffer xD)
Oh it does it sure does
Yep they have good tanks and good upgrades
Good tanks bad teams
I'm italian and I use italian tanks. If they touch a rock they explode, but are fast.
@@gattoninja4557 yep true I do t play em but daaamn that smoll armor
so helpful my guy, thank you!
As more i study balistic protection against germans tigers and panters, i almost every face off i shot in specific angles that my gun cant punch it
One of the best tips I can give is simple. Don’t go first, sure you might not get all the kills but, if there is a tank hidden behind a house or something it’ll hit the first tank so you’ll know it’s there the other tank will be dead
man being a german main is rough. for most games i was in my 3.3 pz 4 and my friendly were tanks were all 1.0 1.3 tanks. its absolutely ridiculous going up against m4s and m24s when my guys are just horrible.
holy shit... I just did a match where I hid near a rock and used my binoculars 90 percent of my life in the tank
I went from 0 kills in 10 matches in a row to 3 in 1 sitting!
Hey great video sir. I just started playing again. Last time I played years ago I broke my keyboard in a fit of nerd rage LOL! :D Chillen and playing now again :) When I get owned I alt tab to minecraft for a little bit lolol.
When I used the binoculars for the first time in 4 BR. I pointed it up a bit, aimed a tank like 300 m away and fired and I immeidately took out the Ammunition, I used a T-34E STZ.
Can you make a video about the best nation to grinde for top tier
Germany because of that leo 2a6 second best is Russia since they have a lot of cool vehicles to make lineups and third is America, then goes Sweden,Britain, France, Italy etc
Tip: In war thunder it is common for any country to beat America as their player base like using planes during a match, they are rarely attending the battle in their plane after their first bombing run and are then rendered useless for the rest of the game and all of them do it to secure the L :()
Standard issue, you know, unlike a fire extinguisher...
Makes perfect sense you need to research that incredible piece of technology over and over and over and over and over and over...
The tips are really useful but I never get to use them because I always get fully uptiered
that's such a cool intro, love the music sick guitar
The longer you wait, the more skilled the community gets
I am an absolute pro in ww2 tanks but I suck so bad at MBTs, leopard playstyle is so different than my panthers and tigers
I'm not a pro but I have one tip for tanks if you need to take a sharp turn let off the throttle while turning it makes a big difference
i know this wont help me but I'm still gonna watch it.
Thank you
Amazing video!!! I subbed thanks :)
Pick planes to cas. As if we needed more planes in ground RB.
I seem to be a hopeless case - whilst I am a pretty good AB player (54% WR), I still suck at RB (48% WR)... despite 1k of matches and basically figuring all of your tips out by myself. :/
Most of the time I just don't see enemies.
I really struggle with long range kills and spotting people without thermals
Tip for German players: don’t bring more than 12 shells in most of the leopard 1’s (and the 2k), and don’t bring more than 16 in any of the leopard 2’s.
Depends on your needs and play style though.
I always bring 3 more than what I need since 1 is in the barrel, 1 is for switching my ammo/ testing the velocity at spawn, and 1 is for trolling around when no enemy is near
Can you make a video on how to spot Enemies better I have a hard time spotting them only been play for a couple days. Maybe graphic setting video, 🙏
spotting tanks is about knowledge about maps, positioning, and yes, graphic settings. for me experience is the best teacher, so u know where enemy usually appears, you know where to spot enemies, but graphics doesnt really matter.
vietnamese captions... nice
Very uplifting vid. I suk.....but there's hope.
Use the binoculars to aim not your turret binoculars can see through foliage and on the other side of a hill once you reach the crest without exposing your tank x marks the spot once lined up fire as you switch back to cannon sights you will shoot through the brush unseen by the enemy
You're telling me you got around 61,000 hours in War Thunder? Sounds about enough time to finish a tech tree.
61,000 hours? No, haha. That would mean I have no life. I'm closer to 50,000. Premium time saved the extra 11,000 hours.
@@Tankenstein Okay makes sense
50000 hours is 5.7 years
Youd be surprised how many times ive heard people say they never had the binos set up on keyboard
I didnt years ago
Someone told me
Im sure that was only a year ago when they put it on default
Easiest way to shoot long range is to range with binocs, set range on the gun, go back to binocs, line up the gun, go back to the gun, fire, go back to binocs and watch the impact... 😜
I've picked up warthunder a couple months ago but have only gotten into hard this month. I feel like I'm actually pretty good, but I just don't know where to go and overwatch, or where I'm would tactically be best for my team
#7 LOOK ON THE FLIPPING KILLFEED AND MAP BEFORE YOU MOVE
i see so many players drive to thier death, even after warning them myself
Tips are vague and uninformative. I would say the following.
1. Do not take max ammo. 20 to 35 rounds is enough. Any more and you will detonate more easily. Pick your targets, don't waste ammo, and you won't miss it.
2. Situational awareness is king. Watch your mini map when someone pings it. Keep your head on a swivel. Assume every hill or bush has a tank in it.
3. Attack distracted enemies. Use your binos to check where their gun is pointing. If they are looking in your direction don't peek until someone else shoots them. If no one does, yield ground and find a better spot.
4. Push the objectives but not recklessly. Use rocks ditches or buildings to mask your approach or make yourself a harder target. Easier to do in low profile tanks. Don't be in too big a rush for the initial push.
5. Play hull down. It means using the back side of a hill that is shallow enough to let your guns depression line up with your target. Easier to do in tanks with -10 degrees or more depression. Only peek as much as you need for your shell to clear the hill then back away immediately rather you hit or not.
6. Flank. But only when the two teams have tied up. Use the chaos as an opportunity but only fire when they are focused elsewhere. Players get tunnel visioned so use it. After three or four shots yield and move elsewhere.
7. High ground. Hills are to be taken immediately and not given up till the end of the match. Even if there is no objective point on them. Even if they are on the other side of the map. They are sniper nests and you WILL be cross fired and destroyed if you ignore them.
8. Angle. This will take a bit of practice to master as all tanks are different. But if your front is a square with an angled upper plate, turn your hull a bit to maximize effective thickness. It can help you survive one or two shots before they flank you. But try not to be caught out of cover in the first place. The best armor is a invincible rock or building or hill. Not your armor.
9. If you are face to face with a jumbo aim at the turret on the lower left or right between the mantlet and turret ring. It will penetrate and kill at least one of the turret crew and piss them off. The machine gun port doesn't always work. This is assuming you have a tank with a decent gun and shell.
10. Open topped vehicles are CAS bait. Expect revenge kills. If there is a high enough rock or building, cozy up to it to reduce the approaches they can gain on you. Other than that you're screwed. Also don't sit in artillery strike zones. The fragments can kill your turret crew.
11. DON'T RAM! You have a S key, use it and stop trying to spin your team mates out. And don't bump into someone peeking a corner, they may be getting ready to fire and you will cause them to miss and you may both die in the response. Just don't be toxic. Please.
Most maps I set my gun site to about the distance of one of the map squares so I don't have to worry about thinking of lead usually a 250 m battle site lets you shoot flat at tanks out to about 350 with a p
Is there a good video on how to play CAS? I don't really play Air battles but I want to get good with CAS.
