Gaijin: The crosshair in tanks can now aim up to 6000m Community: So we get bigger maps to fully use this feature? Gaijin: Yes soon we will add more premium helicopters

Fun thing is, if that map had tried to be anything like Stockholm, it would have made most other maps seem flat. Because Stocholms geography underneath the buildings is nothing but granite cliff islands somewhat smoothed by glacial ice, interspaced with mud banks, marsh delta and ice age boulder deposits. Any AFV with worse than +45/-15 vertical gun handling would be a sitting duck.
Dude imagine a top tier map being a big, large desert map with long drives, people driving in convoys along with SAM to protect them from pesky helicopter and jets, a hill for hull-down 2-4km sniping engagements. What a dream man
A map based on the battlefields from Girls und Panzer would work nicely i'm sure, it got forests, open plains, hills and towns. A variety of things, but gaijin would simply need to actually start working instead of adding useless stuff.
Fun untill that map get pushed down to WW2 tanks.... where we can barely shoot over 1km. Its not fun having to drive 1km on a Churchill or a Sherman just to die in a second
Yesssss!!! It is so fun to drive for some minutes while doing nothing else, look at some pixels moving far far away, stay back doing nothing or volunteer to be a target practice for the entire enemy team for trying to reach cap or any meaningful cover, and all that to suddenly get destroyed by some cancerous piece of shit aircraft. That is the dream
@@potatoaim2596 Easy solution to this is to lock certain BRs for certain maps, so we dont have WW2 tanks fighting in maps meant for modern MBTs while modern stuff can enjoy long range maps.
As an former gunner on the Strv122 in the Swedish army I couldn’t agree more with you. The best part was live fire long range shoots, but 1500m was cool enough.
To all those ATGM spammers out there who bought a Black shark, Peten, or Tiger: I hope a spider makes its home in your pillowcase. Unless you're from Australia. That would be a bit extreme
Lol... I had a spider called a golden orb spider sitting in the corner of a room I was sleeping in didn’t notice until I turn the light on.. I just stared at it and it stared at me... I just turned around and walked out...
@Hans Fegelein Remember back when the M1 and T-64B were first added? Germans and Russian would club literally every game, even with worse tanks, just cause the US team was *full* of XM1s.. that was hell for me (and everyone else) just tryna spade the M1 lmao
Hans Fegelein yeah same when I’m trying to get my leo 2a4, just a complete gathering of type 74g, Amx supers and so on. And don’t forget the helicopters
They should add the bigger version of the maps available in Sim in these BR, they are already set up! We play 5.7 in these 2-3 km engagement Just Do It WT!
This tank is the Original Leo 2A5... Germany says we only need the tower, we use the chassi from our A4... and after this on every Trainingärea the German A5 have Problems with his shockabsorber and his chassi because the massive weight gain :D we in our A4 laughs every time xD
Except the fact that the US had the right idea for tank destroyers in WW2... And helis with ATGMs are the... Modern iteration of the m18, mobile and pack a whallop
14:46 Oh, look. Your average top tier game. Get into a good spot, get a few kills, have some fun, and then randomly a chopper nukes you from above. Top tier... it's almost fun.
The Problem is: Small, urban map and you're like: no chance chopper! Long range map and the half of the players spawn in choppers and you ask yourself, if this is a ground battle or a heli battle with you as the targets
Gaijin should also make bigger maps or allow to play only the long range variants, change the team making (modern alleances) and increase the SP for helis, increase the reward and lower the repair costs of many vehicles (expecially axis airplanes)
Nah because then you wouldnt be able to get the ivfs support at top tier and that cool for the realism feels, they all have atgms anyways so bigger maps wouldnt effect them and they can still kill top tier easily if given half a chance
Wilson Lee it’s actually stupid that a good map like that which actually works for top tier is in the lower tiers, while all the low tier maps like Poland, Eastern Europe, Normandy are for top tier.
Thank you for speaking about the biggest problem Tank RB has - the maps. I personally pretty much refuse to play most high tier vehicles above 7.7/ 8.0 mainly because of the map pool that is pure garbage for modern tanks. 7/10 games I get an urban, unrealistic clusterfuck on atrocious maps like American Desert, Alaska, Abondoned Factory, Small versions of Poland and Eastern Europe, or Berlin. I see no fun in a game with a realistic attitude engaging with Abrams and Leopards mainly below 300m. I really hope this will change fairly soon and we get good, realistic and large maps like Fulda, which is by far the best map in the game or I will pretty much end playing ground RB or even at all. PS: Or at least give me the option Gaijin to only enable the ~10 maps and versions that actually make fun at higher BR's. I'll take 1-3 Minute queue times if I can have fun insstead of suffering on small, urban trashmaps...
@@jessegm1 I dont like to sound like that one player that is like "fUcK AmErIcAn TAnKs" but like.... those numbers are a LOT better than when modern tanks first started rolling in, especially when the introduction of the Abrams came around. Facing America was a nightmare you were almost guaranteed a loss
Yeah but wait until the newer tanks come into the game. It is good in war thunder because there aren't tanks in like t 14 armata or leo 2A7V.... Against tanks that are rly new (real life not war Thunder) it doesn't stand any chance
And you have to look at the timescale because you in Sweden still use those "War Thunder top tier tanks" but for example the German leopard 2a5 (top tier in war Thunder) is extremely old and isn't used (at least in Germany) for a long time. But some countries for example Austria even uses the leo 2A4 which is........ Shit
When you get a 3 kill game and lose SL... feels great... especially to be killed by a heli you can’t see or defend yourself against... that is prem and has a really low repair cost...
Fun fact: after spending about 300h of pain and swearing I can say that Sturmpanzer II is one of the best top tier MBTs, specialy on small maps. It can also be used as great AA,since if you hit anything it will change the state of matter to gas. Hope you will have fun, plz dont abuse

Usually people bring in an array of vehicles that have different strengths and more effective environments. When you bring only one vehicle you don't get that utility (Self-Imposed handicapping) that the rest of us do. However, your map and game knowledge exceeds the majority of others which gives a huge -honest- advantage. Cheers, keep up the great content!
Wow i come back to this channel and phly still be uploading regularly with the same content style we all subbed for, been here since 100k, keep it up phly!
Gotta agree with comrade Phlee here, more long range maps = better. It can be something outside of Europe, such as Gulf War inspired maps and stuff, and T-80 mains like me can actually launch the Kobra at something other than choppers, nice.
In relation to higher tier I guess you're right. But even then trying to traverse those maps which are fairly open while missiles are being sent from IR/NV using helicopters at distances you can't even see them. Fulda and Maginot really suck at lower tiers, just the time it takes to get anywhere, only to be sniped and one shotted by a camper. Luckily it seems that Fulda isn't in the lowest tier rotation.
What you say about the larger maps is exactly what I'm thinking.. That's even what the armor of these mbts is designed for. But ppl complain when they spawn on fulda, idk why it's my absolute favourite map
Phly you checked out the french 20mm helicopter a few days ago, but now you gotta check out the American one! The AH-1F has a built-in 20mm that has double the fire rate as the french heli with the same penetration (55mm or armor). Oh, and it also has a ballistic computer for the hydras! You gotta give the American one a try!
All of that You have said, Plus Smoke Artilery Fire missions. Perhaps with a little bit longer "reload". That would allow for players in high BRs to flank and get to new possitions.
Phly when you say 2, 3 or even 4km shots would be great did you know the longest recorded tank on tank kill was about somewhere between 4.7km and 5.1km (reports vary dpending on where you read) in the 1991 gulf war by a british challenger 1 with an APDS shell. Pretty amazing considering that up untill that point the fire controll system on the challenger 1 had apparently only been useable to 3km with APDS.
Hey Phly, if they make larger maps, more ammo will be used and the ammo cost at top tier is already high. On a small map you may take 12 rounds, and and big map you may use 2-3x as much ammo; just throwing that point it out there.
I completely agree that top tier needs to be fixed. I recently got the XM-803 and stepped into the world of top tier. The experience is so different from low/mid tiers since armor becomes largely irrelevant, and the winner is always the one that shoots first.
It is so funny. 2+ years ago I begged for large maps like Fulda with the introduction of the T-64A and people told me to shut up on Reddit because they hated driving. They also were vocal about it on the forums. So now WT will not get larger maps because players complained.
I completely agree I think every tank after WW2 no exceptions needs to only be playing on newer maps made just for them, otherwise it just feels like that enormous grind to get to high BR was just a big joke!
Hey Phly as to what you were saying in the first game, do you know the map “sands of sanai”? That map with the cap circle that was away from the town, out in the desert. That’s how I envisioned top tier. It was a map with a massive range, tanks advancing and pulling back over sand dunes when they take hits, and it would be a long range battle of attrition rather than point blank street shooting. If gaijin could make 3 or 4 maps like that map for the next update and make it so top tier (9.7-10.3) can only play on those maps, then there could be room for a lot more fun. What do you think?
If we're talking potential theory for Warthunder. Ive always wanted WT to do its World War mode similar to Planetside 2 in the sense as its all open world and we could fill in more support focused roles for the respective teams.
What phly is saying here makes me miss Volokolmansk. I HATED that map with my 8.0-9.0 brits but for fast tanks with hvap shells like this it was perfect
When ever I got the long range maps like the new Kursk looking map (forgot the name), both my team and the enemy team literally used 1/4th-1/2 of the map, it was a full game too
I got the xm1 to run with my merkiva . I have played a dozen games or more. All have been tiny maps . I go on my t29 all long range maps , full up tier and get killed by someone i can't even see . In arcade btw. I still like the xm1 but i haven't gotten a good map for it yet. Most of the games are over in 5 min . Top tier does lack strategy. It's just rush enemy spawn , game over. To be honest that's kind of what modern tank warfare is. Push forward with speed and accurate gun fire to overwhelm to enemy. Good vid
at 1:47 you said "it acts like a Leopard 2A5".That is what it is from the beginning actually......a very updated/modified 2A5. And if i am not mistaking,,,the strv 122 is now ( at least ) in the third major upgrade of that tank.
Gaijin should make a game mode like Planetside 2 where the battle is continuous and maps are huge. Players can choose to spawn in several locations and the goal is for both teams to try to capture key areas and push the boundaries of the opposing force back. Respawn is technically unlimited as long as you have enough respawn points but it will cost you SL if the tank gets destroyed, so there's an incentive for gaijin to implement this style of game mode because they will also make money from these long continuous battles.
@Phly Usefull tip, Hodl left alt key to pop up your cursor in-game, and when you klick on the minimap you can also mark without the need to open the big map window ^_^
It might be only me, but Gaijin improved scopes on some vehicles to shoot 4-5km+ soooooooo i think they`re giving us hints that bigger maps are incoming.
Airplanes and helicopters really kills the fun in this game, and often. Had so many matches that has been going pretty well, having a lot of fun, then getting destroyed by air without having any chance to do something about it. If Ground battles actually were ground battles, and not swarming with air, it would have been a lot more fun to play the game, and maybe my friends i used to play the game with would come back to as they all quit playing because of all the air that swarms ground battles.

In relation to higher tier I guess you're right. But even then trying to traverse those maps which are fairly open while missiles are being sent from IR/NV using helicopters at distances you can't even see them.
Fulda and Maginot really suck at lower tiers, just the time it takes to get anywhere, only to be sniped and one shotted by a camper. Luckily it seems that Fulda isn't in the lowest tier rotation.
What you say about the larger maps is exactly what I'm thinking.. That's even what the armor of these mbts is designed for. But ppl complain when they spawn on fulda, idk why it's my absolute favourite map
last time i was this early war thunder was actually fun
Phly you checked out the french 20mm helicopter a few days ago, but now you gotta check out the American one! The AH-1F has a built-in 20mm that has double the fire rate as the french heli with the same penetration (55mm or armor). Oh, and it also has a ballistic computer for the hydras!
You gotta give the American one a try!
Thats a type something ok. Teacher: what is 1+1 student: thats betwen 1 and 10000000000000. 9:58 in the video
All of that You have said, Plus Smoke Artilery Fire missions. Perhaps with a little bit longer "reload". That would allow for players in high BRs to flank and get to new possitions.
Yay, finally, the Leopard 2A5 live server video.
It's a modified leo 2A4
Leo2a5 in real life doesn’t have that lower plate armor.
Shane Chambers no, it’s literally an upgraded 2A5 with more armor on the hull.
Sweden= We have armorr in long range
URS= Yea I think whe have vodka in our cannon. And Puttin in the front
Nobody:
Gaijin: "Fun haha i don't think so"
Just like your comment
Phly when you say 2, 3 or even 4km shots would be great did you know the longest recorded tank on tank kill was about somewhere between 4.7km and 5.1km (reports vary dpending on where you read) in the 1991 gulf war by a british challenger 1 with an APDS shell. Pretty amazing considering that up untill that point the fire controll system on the challenger 1 had apparently only been useable to 3km with APDS.
Aight! Finally first. Even before the bell. Noice. Now, I can move forward with my life. Also, great ending.
Didn't get first tho
props to that little locust in the 10BR match. The little locust that could

miling because I hear my language in a game
Do swedes actually speak this way? One of the "Hit" voice lines sounds like the tanker is spitting on the floor tbh (no offense)
@@potiabel7395 yes
Hey Phly, if they make larger maps, more ammo will be used and the ammo cost at top tier is already high. On a small map you may take 12 rounds, and and big map you may use 2-3x as much ammo; just throwing that point it out there.
Phly making those fire vidz! i try to make fire vidz too xD
but m8... your username says junkie.
I completely agree that top tier needs to be fixed. I recently got the XM-803 and stepped into the world of top tier. The experience is so different from low/mid tiers since armor becomes largely irrelevant, and the winner is always the one that shoots first.
It is so funny. 2+ years ago I begged for large maps like Fulda with the introduction of the T-64A and people told me to shut up on Reddit because they hated driving. They also were vocal about it on the forums. So now WT will not get larger maps because players complained.
I agree... I love long range engagements in modern vehicles
16:36
how is it called in the settings? The barell moving up but sight staing in the same position
I completely agree I think every tank after WW2 no exceptions needs to only be playing on newer maps made just for them, otherwise it just feels like that enormous grind to get to high BR was just a big joke!
Hey Phly as to what you were saying in the first game, do you know the map “sands of sanai”? That map with the cap circle that was away from the town, out in the desert. That’s how I envisioned top tier. It was a map with a massive range, tanks advancing and pulling back over sand dunes when they take hits, and it would be a long range battle of attrition rather than point blank street shooting. If gaijin could make 3 or 4 maps like that map for the next update and make it so top tier (9.7-10.3) can only play on those maps, then there could be room for a lot more fun. What do you think?
Or battle of al amein map..
the longest confirmed tank on tank kill was by the challenger and was about 2km so, it would be nice to see that as an option more often
If we're talking potential theory for Warthunder. Ive always wanted WT to do its World War mode similar to Planetside 2 in the sense as its all open world and we could fill in more support focused roles for the respective teams.
I agree... the long range engagements at higher BR are more fun... say 8.5 and up.
How fun would it be to see phly play the M22 baby sherman
What phly is saying here makes me miss Volokolmansk. I HATED that map with my 8.0-9.0 brits but for fast tanks with hvap shells like this it was perfect
When ever I got the long range maps like the new Kursk looking map (forgot the name), both my team and the enemy team literally used 1/4th-1/2 of the map, it was a full game too
I got the xm1 to run with my merkiva . I have played a dozen games or more. All have been tiny maps . I go on my t29 all long range maps , full up tier and get killed by someone i can't even see . In arcade btw. I still like the xm1 but i haven't gotten a good map for it yet. Most of the games are over in 5 min . Top tier does lack strategy. It's just rush enemy spawn , game over. To be honest that's kind of what modern tank warfare is. Push forward with speed and accurate gun fire to overwhelm to enemy. Good vid
at 1:47 you said "it acts like a Leopard 2A5".That is what it is from the beginning actually......a very updated/modified 2A5. And if i am not mistaking,,,the strv 122 is now ( at least ) in the third major upgrade of that tank.
Gaijin should make a game mode like Planetside 2 where the battle is continuous and maps are huge. Players can choose to spawn in several locations and the goal is for both teams to try to capture key areas and push the boundaries of the opposing force back. Respawn is technically unlimited as long as you have enough respawn points but it will cost you SL if the tank gets destroyed, so there's an incentive for gaijin to implement this style of game mode because they will also make money from these long continuous battles.
@Phly Usefull tip, Hodl left alt key to pop up your cursor in-game, and when you klick on the minimap you can also mark without the need to open the big map window ^_^
does the slope under the gun barrel on the turret not create a shot trap?
It's funny how not too long ago everyone hated long rage maps and wanted smaller ones. Now it's exactly the opposite. Lmao
You should play play the red angle in the british
You should fly the Yak 3U one time. I haven't seen you do it before
It might be only me, but Gaijin improved scopes on some vehicles to shoot 4-5km+ soooooooo i think they`re giving us hints that bigger maps are incoming.
5:57
Nice pun.
I LONG for that
Keep in mind phly, that 12km long maps are maps that will take up to a really long time to complete.
What do you mean kind of like a Leopard 2?
It is a Leopard 2 with a different set of add on armor and electronics.
Airplanes and helicopters really kills the fun in this game, and often. Had so many matches that has been going pretty well, having a lot of fun, then getting destroyed by air without having any chance to do something about it. If Ground battles actually were ground battles, and not swarming with air, it would have been a lot more fun to play the game, and maybe my friends i used to play the game with would come back to as they all quit playing because of all the air that swarms ground battles.
