Bringing back a flexible D point would actually be such a good idea to counter those matches where 1 team gets absolutely stomped. Make it so that it takes down like half the remaining tickets of the enemy or something, so that a losing team with few tickets doesn't lose too much but a winning team with loads of tickets does.
Unfortunately, it can't be balanced due to it being more one-sided. If a team is not losing, but they still get the D point on their side, they still get a big advantage. The game is already short anyways with tickets depleting too quick in my opinion, so we really don't need something like that.
@@hunlepto2239 increase the overall points per team and bring the D point back and maybe make it spawn near the losing team's territory to help them like a behemoth in BF1

@@henri.stach1208 well the game is anything but fun most of the time. And balance is pretty fucked depending on what you play. For example playing a ww2 tank with just regular armor and a regular shells having to fight cold war tanks with stabilizers heat-fs and apfsds
@@henri.stach1208 accurate Observation but i don't think that's fair either, what I'd like to see is a general heavy BR decompression. Because let's face it the tiger 1 at 5,7 is BS
14:56 Shouldn't matter if it was only a single prototype, Gaijin has added dozens of vehicles that were only single prototypes. Even British ones (like the Black Prince)
if i remember correctly its radar and missiles weren't actually functional making it more a mock up like the flakpanzer 341. tbf i personally have no issue with mock ups as long as they perform realistically
Just a little side note, the jungle map is supposed to be on the island of Guadalcanal as the full map includes markings for Henderson field and lunga point
One of the wierdest things that happened to me in WT was when I was playing the A6M5 Ko on Iwo Jima, we killed the entire enemy team except for 1 player and than we activated a blind hunt and an avenger order after that but he still didn`t get spoted..... after some 10 mins we sudenly found him going for our Airfield and took him out. When I went to look in the replay from that player perspective it didnt work and it showed like he despawned only for it to work 30 mins later at the end of the game.... Probably one of the spookiest WT experiences.
Doesn't the replays work like that? They only record your POV. When you attempt to watch other player's point of view, they pop in and out of existence, where you could physically see them from your point of view in the actual game. Other player's vehicles are not kept rendered at all times to save your machine's resources. It's weird, tho, that the Order didn't reveal him for you.
@@Nicitel94 Never knew that< I thought they recorded all of the players POV, being that you can switch to an enemy POV at the start of the battle before he was spotted. Thanks for the knowledge
@@dantunsoiu7177 Well there are two kinds of replays the server replays normally found in the game end screen or in the battle tab at the bottom right of the hanger to look at what the server saw or the replay tab to see your clients replays
U have 2 replays, the client ready in ur WT game, and in gaijin site there's the server replay, that one indeed let's u see everything of everyone's POV, so u saw the client replay wich only shows the enemy when he's spotted, u should have seen the server replay
Awesome little sneak peak at things that have been. And very sobering slap back to reality at the end (for those that needed it) Fantastic video! (As always)
Honestly, I love these hidden lore videos of war Thunder… as a veteran player having played since March 2014, I’ve experienced a lot and it’s always amazing to relive some of these nuggets of lost war Thunder… love the good work! Can’t wait for more!
I actually had a last man standing in a tiger 2 and got 5 more kills with one crew while holding down the A point on Berlin, I absolutely loved that mechanic.
just a few things of what i can remember. 17:27 the old tech tree was a bit crazy. you needed to get a level with the nation as well as a level with ur profile to get some aircraft. There was also a massive range for planes to fight against. I remember you could get stuck into 6.7 games with the German jets in your like 4.3 russian props. 18:57 also the D point would spawn extra AI ground units for you team on Carpathians back when that map had AI. They would spawn from the west side in the big open area. I remember back in the day all the AI tanks were like snipers and would give away your position in bushes because they could always see you lol.
17:08 holy shit do you see the ambient lighting and light scattering? Why is it not in the game anymore? It looks so good. There is something about the old old WT looks which just feels more ... better? I remember back in the day the clouds looked really epic and then we got an update which made the clouds look worse than playstation 1 graphics lol. Only just recently Gaijin restored the cloud graphics back.
Oh hell yeah, I'm not the only one who thinks the old wt clouds and skybox are prettier! I was already desperate to find a similar opinion, but I found this comment, thanks for being here, dude
They want their playerbase frustrated so they give in and pay money to accelerate the grind. Their *entire business model* is about us *not* being happy.
In recent months I'd been seeing a lot of players with similar weird looking, grammatically incorrect German names. They didn't look like terms the average Wehraboo would go for but very definitely like they were randomly generated, and always had the same format. I could imagine those were bot players, too (maybe to auto-grind for the summer event)
@@munastronaut8147 EDIT: I checked my browser history and found one example from when I was googling for forum posts someone else might have made about it. It was "stark_treiben" and admittedly I could see this particular one being used by an actual German person as innuendo, but it still looks kinda weird. I can't quite remember any single one clearly cuz I never bothered writing them down or anything but they were always the plain dictionary form of a given adjective + an infinitive verb. What first made me notice the pattern is that no one who understands the language would use the plain dictionary form of the adjective without grammatical endings (at least not by mistake) and no one who didn't know the language would normally think of picking the specific words being used for those names because they were sometimes kinda obscure and generally unremarkable in meaning. Also I think none of them ever had additional numbers or symbols in their names. Before thinking they were bots I assumed it was just a weird trend among some players maybe, but it was very reminiscent of how file hosting services sometimes use randomly generated words instead of numbers to name items.
@@Nero_Karel sounds like a generated name tbh. reminds me of the ones on xbox360 when you changed name without paying the fee. something like “Baum_Eber“ or random stuff like that.
there used to be a glitch which allowed you to fly the DC-3/Li-2 and Ju-52 on test flights. Their flight models are quite strange and they were very hard to control, constantly trying to nosedive into the ground
This video was amazing for not only just being great and enjoyable but it ended up making me really think about the real men and women of WW2, and gave me a ton of emotion. I don't think I'll see another more wholesome war thunder video
Love this video. I was a WT player, started in closed beta 2013(?). Play in tbe old unlock system. One of my fondest memory was fighting a Sabre with my Mc 202. Didn't remember winning but we chased it around the whole match. I quit about a few years back around the time it crossed over to cold war / modern. I remembered how Gaijin said they will not go modern lol. Man, the ending, Saburo Sakai's book, story is a good read despite it's inaccuracies that the author took upon himself to write about Sakai's story... A good video. Thanks for making this man. Ah, my love more than hate relationship with WT.
in relation to the consultants, the Italian community is doing the same because the Italian consultant post-addition of France has mainly moved on to France ignoring the Italian community and not communicating at all
the way you worked in the war thunder event into your add had me literally spit my keyboard, followed by laughingcoughcramps. thanks my man, i needed that :D
For bots the best explanation is Xp farm/event farm/silver lion farm, you might find them often on naval battle and during any grind event. Apparently you could buy these "hack" on certain websites and it's pretty hard to get banned. These bot are not much of a threat since they are pretty dumb edit:unless they are your teamates
2:53 there was a phenomenon where a bunch of similar accounts, all Level 5-15 were playing the B18B in ARB. No idea why except they could be exceptionally aggressive
i hope James is doing ok. i am not sure if he got his IS7, or if his Wife is still alive, but i still wish the man all the best. having gotten Cancer myself, i can say for certain that the hardest part about having it isnt the treatments that have a VERY slim chance of working, but seeing those around me try and endure the pain of the loss slowly creeping up on them, day after day...
@@meesamkhan4767 surprisingly, i am. not cured, but it isnt an imediate threat to my life anymore. tho, once you get it, you never really get rid of it either.
18:40. C-47 US Transport plane actually also exists in game and there is a PvE plane mission where you shoot them down in ME-262 before they drop paratroopers.
I remember last man standing very well, and GOD I LOVED THAT FEATURE. I thought it was amazing personally, I hated getting “one tapped” when the tank had for all intents and purposes complete functionality but the only hang up was one man alive. Sure it was a pain to move around and all that blah but it gave an opportunity to still get that last breath of defiance before going out, and with crew replenishment it could’ve been in an even better place, because there is that slim slim slim chance to escape and get one more man in for a chance to get back into the fight for real and for vehicles with 2 and 3 man crews it just made it possible to actually stay in the fight if you got MG’d
This is something I never seen discussed anywhere but when I look at older war thunder footage it just seems to look better? Maybe because it’s more stylised? There’s quite a noticeable blueish hue after all
11:47 The S-204 used to have a 30mm autocannon, but somewhere along the line they just dumped a 20mm in it's place. I'm sure everyone who slapped down such a huge amount of money for this boat really appreciate it (these first three premiums were _not_ cheap)
I feel like they can't keep event vehicles exclusive to specific events for ever. Given that the 10th anniversary is around the corner it really puts into perspective how long ago some of these events happened.
12:46 You also could say this about Japan, with most of the latest changes alongside the Type 10 introduction contradicting offical sources (per example the latest Type 90 optics nerf)....
Oddly enough, I was playing Germany with the Tiger, and I was down to 1 crew member, I was so confused. There might be a small chance that activates this feature.
I started Warthunder in 2014 - then went to World of Tanks for a few years... then uninstalled World of Toxic err Tanks, and returned to Warthunder thankfully... but today seeing World of Tanks sponsoring a Warthunder video, made me spit my beer on my screen! Well played!!
Its always a nice suprise to play on Vossenack since im working closeby and often enought i drive trough the town. However apart from some resemblance it seems the map has been "balanced" by Gaijin and is only somewhat accurate - at least to the town that is there nowadays. Thinking about open up a reddit post with some ingame and rl comparison.
I really miss when the D point was actually a thing. I really liked how it could help a struggling team bring it back, or a steamroll move a little faster.
12:15. Air Simulator battles ahve had "full" damage models for many years, as seen on the Air RB E.C. maps. They used to have "basic health" models roughtly 1 year befor the Helicopters where added into the game. (my dates are mainly a guess and I don't fully remember).
My only purchase so far was the G55s a couple years back, but its good to know that if I buy anything bigger than the $16 eagles bundle I need to go to the website so steam doesn't rip another $15-40 out of my pocket.
Just when I was able to forget that one thing I can not forgive myself for not doing ( which is not buying those 6 bushes for 500GE ) you needed to remind me about it -_-
I'm just happy that the F-14 is finally in the game. As a kid in the 80s the there was 4 acceptable posters you hung on your bedroom wall. 1 was the SR-71 Blackbird, 2 was the Lamborghini Diablo, 3 was Cindy Crawford but Kathy Ireland was a acceptable option as well, and 4 was the F-14. If a kid came over to your house it didn't matter if he had the exact same poster on his wall he'd compliment you on yours anyway. One friend had a full sized cardboard cutout of Kathy Ireland in a bikini his dad gave him because he owned a gas station and it was a advertisement for some beer or something and instead of throwing it out he brought it home. He was automatically a bit cooler after he got it. Other than that a Star Wars poster was also pretty well regarded but not in place of one of the 4 most important ones. One kid's mom bought him a E.T. poster, he never even hung it up and that was the right choice. E.T. was not cool in the 80s as it was seen as a little kid movie even though we all liked it even if we didn't admit it to each other.
You made it sound like our WW2 vets are all gone at the end. There's a few. But they are still sharp and kicking! Ever since I played birds of steel then went to war thunder, I've always wondered if a WW2 vet would want to jump into a sim and fly their aircraft one more time. It might bring back too many memories though for some. I'm still on a mission to meet one from every branch before they are gone. And I'm running out of time 😢
When you said "Forbidden Knowledge" I was honestly just expecting the few times people leaked classified information on the forums but that works as well.

I feel like the last man standing feature should come back but you're only able to drive and only if your tank has crew replenishment
Oddly enough, I was playing Germany with the Tiger, and I was down to 1 crew member, I was so confused. There might be a small chance that activates this feature.
I started Warthunder in 2014 - then went to World of Tanks for a few years... then uninstalled World of Toxic err Tanks, and returned to Warthunder thankfully... but today seeing World of Tanks sponsoring a Warthunder video, made me spit my beer on my screen!
Well played!!
Its always a nice suprise to play on Vossenack since im working closeby and often enought i drive trough the town. However apart from some resemblance it seems the map has been "balanced" by Gaijin and is only somewhat accurate - at least to the town that is there nowadays. Thinking about open up a reddit post with some ingame and rl comparison.
3:35 why bro turned into soldier tf2
Wargamming trying to convince war thunder players to quit war thunder: "We don't have russian bias"
James: **Exists**
Gaijin: Professionals have standards.
Man the whole parts n fpe thing was great also the community manager is right we should get free abrams.
*GAIJIN literally adding the free abrams*
@@dondontrollisten2915 Idiots paid for that free Abrams. It wasn't free.

Liked the ending there mate, almost brought a tear to my eye ❤
same
yeah, it was so emotional
Zoltan hats off for such an amazing video, I’ve been playing since 2012 and this brought back so many memories!

Artillery: Am I a joke to you
6:27 I really believe thatbig arse hangar was used to build/repair airships
World of tank sponsered a Warthuder video,with a discount code in War Thunder store , WTF is happening!?!?
I almost fell out of chair with that WoT sponsor segment lmfao 🤣
Mmm yes world of tanks sponsored a war thunder video
the lady on the right of the african american pilot at 21:28 is meant to be Sabiha Gokcen afaik, the first female fighter pilot.
tbh i hate that once the event vehicles are gone, they are gone
I really miss when the D point was actually a thing. I really liked how it could help a struggling team bring it back, or a steamroll move a little faster.
3:34 TRAITOR
Grow up
@@ShinyProspectbroski it's literally warthunders direct competitor
Yes I was in stream well you edited this, hella hyped
I hope James wife is doing well
Wow, clearly Gajin is watching these vids, because the Type 69-IIa has just been made available as a limited time pack.
Yoooooo very poggers
15:47 That's wrong. The new year aerobatic smoke was given to players who got 30 kills with rank 3 aircraft, during christmas.

@@ZoltanSultan thanks!
Madman crammed in WoT ad into video talking about War Thunder. Liked!
Finally it started
Edit: dang it ended
12:15. Air Simulator battles ahve had "full" damage models for many years, as seen on the Air RB E.C. maps.
They used to have "basic health" models roughtly 1 year befor the Helicopters where added into the game. (my dates are mainly a guess and I don't fully remember).
World of tanks sponsoring your war thunder video is such a power play
My only purchase so far was the G55s a couple years back, but its good to know that if I buy anything bigger than the $16 eagles bundle I need to go to the website so steam doesn't rip another $15-40 out of my pocket.
Just when I was able to forget that one thing I can not forgive myself for not doing ( which is not buying those 6 bushes for 500GE ) you needed to remind me about it -_-
I'm just happy that the F-14 is finally in the game. As a kid in the 80s the there was 4 acceptable posters you hung on your bedroom wall. 1 was the SR-71 Blackbird, 2 was the Lamborghini Diablo, 3 was Cindy Crawford but Kathy Ireland was a acceptable option as well, and 4 was the F-14. If a kid came over to your house it didn't matter if he had the exact same poster on his wall he'd compliment you on yours anyway. One friend had a full sized cardboard cutout of Kathy Ireland in a bikini his dad gave him because he owned a gas station and it was a advertisement for some beer or something and instead of throwing it out he brought it home. He was automatically a bit cooler after he got it. Other than that a Star Wars poster was also pretty well regarded but not in place of one of the 4 most important ones. One kid's mom bought him a E.T. poster, he never even hung it up and that was the right choice. E.T. was not cool in the 80s as it was seen as a little kid movie even though we all liked it even if we didn't admit it to each other.
6:45 petition for Mrbeast to use actual tanks and play WT IRL in this location.
Capture the flag mode and battle royale mode definitely should come back someday. It's quite strange how Gaijin predicted the battle royale craze.
Tanks being only a prototype never stopped Gaijin
made War thunder video but got sponsor by World of Tank what a Chad Move.
really good watch, i loved it!
You made it sound like our WW2 vets are all gone at the end. There's a few. But they are still sharp and kicking! Ever since I played birds of steel then went to war thunder, I've always wondered if a WW2 vet would want to jump into a sim and fly their aircraft one more time. It might bring back too many memories though for some.
I'm still on a mission to meet one from every branch before they are gone. And I'm running out of time 😢
Wow! That's a different kind of War Thunder video; I was riveted. Great job!
war thunder video with world of tanks ads really caught me off guard lol, nice vids btw.
10:09 yeah add on Eva Elfie's decal to the iceberg, since it seems Mike has it?
5:40
"Like, why not give everybody a free abrams?"
Damn, thats good foreshadowing
WoT: We're cool and all, so play our game!
War Thunder: Am I a joke to you?
This man is a criminal, he put a WOT ad on a WT video.
I know how I feel about this
How?
@@warlloverespanol2897 with VIOLENCE
For legal reasons this is a joke
When you said "Forbidden Knowledge" I was honestly just expecting the few times people leaked classified information on the forums but that works as well.
