To dodge those early missiles. You pull a hard turn like you were to get the missile to follow you, then you roll the plane the other way. Basically the turn will look like an "S" to dodge the missile! Doesnt always work, but if you dont have flares its worth a try!
@@freezedvegetal Pulling up when the missile stops burning the engine and then turning also helps sometimes but it can also cause an enemy to catch up faster
For someone who's still F2P, seeing the rewards for that one game in the Ju 288 was eye-opening. No wonder people use that thing like crazy! It's still annoying af to deal with them, but I might blame each player a little less now...
I would blame the players even more personally, damn sellouts. The more I play the more I think it's not the Snail ruining this game, it's the playerbase. For a cheap premium I can recommend the US Ki43, the thing is really good and fairly easy to use if you have more than 5 braincells while giving decent amount of SL.
the hits on the last LIM clip were probably the smaller NR 23s, the 23mm guns. They usually just spark a bit and dont do that much. The hits from the 37 would be bigger and would definitly at least critically demage the enemy :D
This guy actually makes really good videos and deserves more subs. I guarantee that I'll be watching more of these because this is some funny content. GET THIS MAN TO 1 MILL!
This week I bought the French F1C and figured I'd do fine because I have a ton of experience on the American sabers. Turns out, Missile Thunder is an entirely different game and I'm getting hit from SARHs from Narnia.
You can only get kills with the F1C if the enemy is stupid or if they make a mistake, if they're competent you're basically fucked. Not really a good premium
It’s weird how when you get into the higher tiers the player base gets better both in gameplay and sportsmanship. Literally 95% of the time if you exit a dogfight the other player will break off as well. Or if I’m in my bomber and I take heavy damage, I’ll head back to base and sometimes even have an enemy escort to friendly territory. I love dis game
at one point i was in a MK1 spit and i escorted a P51C10 that was missing its vertical stab until a teamate killed me. the funny part is that the next day i joined a game and the guy i escordted the daybefore was also in
@@demondangr I have tier 4 after 26 hours of play if you know how to fly and fight aircrafts that game isn't that hard as you think. You have lot of examples in this movie and how many mistakes author is doing at dogfighting. thats why he take 400h to get 6 tier only lol most of the time reduce your speed to maintaint tailing enemy don't go full throtle like him all the time
do you have a vid on your keybinds, mouse settings and how you combine the two? just getting into the game and i fly with WSAD but use mouse for small corrections and shooting, but its wonky, when i roll and turn with WSAD i need to align the mouse or it gets shaky etc, Any tips?
The TH-camr DEFYN has an amazing video on his controls and how to play with them, which I basically just copy pasted into my own gameplay: th-cam.com/video/QLwcSHURTt8/w-d-xo.html Other than that, make sure you hold your look around key and make sure the little circle is outside of your field of view. This makes the plane only respond to keyboard rather than a mix of keyboard and mouse. Aside from that, mess around in test flights and play alot getting used to them. Hope this helps :)
@@freezedvegetal ah thanks, so holding the look around key is it then, i have it on "C" but thats not ideal for right aileron so i ll bind it to mouse side button, using MMO mouse with 12 side keys so that should fix it, thanks!
24:20 What did you mean by "OK ping"? If you're referring to the missile not actually hitting you but still blowing up and killing you, that is because almost all air-to-air missiles have a proximity fuze. Which means they don't have to directly hit you, they just have to get within a few meters. 24:42 "How do I dodge that" well I'm pretty sure that's an aim 9 b, which is only a 10g missile, so they should be pretty easy to dodge, but personally I haven't played that specific jet you're in, so I don't know how well it turns, but basically you need to turn in to the ground, into the turning circle of the missile. You want to make it bleed all of it's speed and/or turn harder than it (which isn't all that difficult (depending on the plane you're in) against an aim 9 b) As well as keep your speed. So do not pull up or sideways unless you really need to (such as if you're gonna ram into the ground). And you should be able to keep your speed (because you're going down), so you should be able to evade the missile. 26:21 I notice that you're using HEAT. Not sure what vehicle that is specifically, but I'm pretty sure it's not one of the chode panzer 4s or 3s, looking at the x ray at the bottom left, because it has a long barrel. This means you should be able to use APHE instead of HEAT, which is WAY better (for most situations). HEAT might have more pen, however it has worse drop, worse velocity, and worse damage compared to something like APHE (and it blows up on bushes and fences and stuff). APHE penetrates the target and then explodes inside, making it devastating compared to HEAT. I'd say you should use APHE, learn where the weak spots on tanks you'll be facing at that BR are, and then one shot all of em with APHE because it's way better most of the time. A couple things that are good about heat, though, are that you can overpressure open top tanks, and that it's pen does not drop off at range. 29:55 The reason why you lost this engagement is because one: you are using APCR, which is similar to HEAT in that it has more pen, but is still wayyyy worse because it has poor post-pen damage. And two, because you kept shooting the one spot where you can't reliably pen that tank. If you were using APHE you could reliable one shot him if you shoot the hull, and even shooting the mantlet like you were would lead to a one shot or at least a disabling shot if it pens (which with the puma, it just might). 30:25 It didn't let you shoot because that person shot your loader with their .50 cal while you were reloading, which reset your reload. 30:33 That enemy is marked on your map because he is in your spawn, you could have spotted him earlier if you had checked that. Also you were just shooting the wrong spots, again, but good on you for using APHE at least :) 31:23 that shot didn't get him because you shot his track with HEAT which provides a lot of spaced armor for him (HEAT is very vulnerable to that) and he is heavily angled. Never shoot something that is heavily angled unless you know it's got 0 armor (which a kv 1 definitely does not). If you'd shot the barrel or breech there, you could have disabled him. 31:28 The problem there is that you used APCR, again. Which, again, has poor post-pen damage. If you'd used APHE, you would have got him. APCR's poor post-pen damage is magnified even more when you're shooting something that has no armor, because the armor itself becomes shrapnel which means you spall more. So if you shoot something with almost no armor, you do basically 0 spall. 31:42 again, heavily angled target. If you're using the anti concrete shells or the HE shells, you could aim for his turret and the splash damage would pen his hull roof and overpressure him. If you hit the heavily angled front plate of a sherman with any shell that can shoot, it will do nothing. 32:34 Didn't kill everyone because everyone on that side of the turret was already dead, if you look at the x-ray when you shoot him. His breech blocked the spall you needed to kill the gunner on your left. 33:00 he would have shot through that wall from third person and then drove away. That'd be my guess. Ah, no, after watching just past that, he shot you from around that corner, reversed away, reloaded, pushed back out, shot you, and then reversed away again. That's the best thing he can do in that situation, especially since there's multiple of you there. 34:35 That is NOT a heavy tank. no elaboration needed. 35:25 Alright so I can't really be fucked writing a counter for everything you said there, but I'm just gonna say some stuff I guess, might miss a few things from what you said. Anyways, most of the time it's just because you lack experience for ground. You can learn from your failures in ground rb just like you can in air rb, that's what the kill cam and damage cam thing (what you see at the top right when you shoot someone) is for. You can see where you hit them, what it did, where their crew members are, where you need to shoot next, etc. And when you get killed, you can see where they penned you, which can give you an idea of what parts of your tank you need to angle or hide etc. Got sniped from across the map? You were way too far in the open. Can't pen a tank? Well, if you're playing germany, you almost definitely can, you're just shooting the wrong spot. Your shell didn't do anything? You're shooting HEAT and APCR, of course it's not going to do anything. "They saw you first"????? that's literally just a skill and experience issue? Not sure what you're complaining about there. Of course, there are times where there's literally just nothing you can do. Sometimes your shell (even if you're using APHE) will just do nothing, or not even register the hit and go right through em. Sometimes you're being spawn camped and there's just too many of them (but you can always just look at the map before you spawn, see what's there and choose what tank to bring accordingly, or just not spawn. Yeah the map design is pretty shit sometimes. Also I respect your resolve to grind to rank 3 or 4 in germany instead of just giving up like a lot of people would after playing with the wrong ammo types. 37:55 lmao wtf?? never happened to me in my 1.5k hours that's funny af 39:06 lmaoo?? Anyways, good video man, have fun with actually good jets (fuck 7.0 jets tbh) and I hope you get better at ground so it can actually be fun for you.
@@freezedvegetal hey I've been playing the game for years and would love to play with you. Also love this content. And the quips about new players getting prem/event jets
From what I can tell, your issue in ground battles is that you're just always using the highest penetration shells without realizing what they do. When you were using the puma, you were using APCR shells, also known as the worst shells in the game. They really only work if you know where the primary ammo rack is and can hit it. At the ranks you're at, stick to APCBC or APBC shells for really armored tanks, and HEAT for light and SPAA
Great video, I've been playing the game for like 4 years mostly ground rb but I really suck at flying airplanes. I've been trying a lot but I just find it really frustrating to fly around for like 10min and instantly die because of some stupid mistake:) Edit: I just played two games in the 109G-6 and it probably made me quit the game for the rest of the week
Climb at 20 degrees and remember, in the g6 your goal is to gain altitude then dive and push people down. If they try turning around you when you dive on them, pull up hard and stall out above them.
So for half of you tank low lights you are using just apcr you should be mostly using aphe and have a few rounds of he and apcr for open tops and hard targets respectively. But if you can get into it with aphe you should use aphe Edit For some tanks with very big guns like the kv-2 you only need he(or the ac round) because you can overpressure people
Look at the armour values of common heavy or strong medium around your battle rating, check the roof plates and top of the hull plates, if they're thin, even less derpy/avg HE shells can blow through. (So hit like the low part of the copula, something to trigger the fuze) They're tricky shots yeah but I still bring a couple HE (and HESH when possible) shells in most of my tanks. Lotta fun to also blow up fast squishy bois with a pretty bad shot. Most advised for heavies that don't have top mounted MG, only coaxial MG with a slow af turret rotation. HE, they're gone. (Or when your gun depression doesn't go down enough and they taunt you, hit the wall close to them, sometimes it's strong enough to just kill them)
fr people who didn't watch the end missed out you got great singing skills shesh keep up the grind bro yes, you have improved your pacing too!! great job!!!!
i've played several days of sim battles (in terms of actual in game time) with the ju 288c and grinded almost the entire german air tech tree. I found that once you are going for rank 6 planes that the ju 288c loses its great grind because it only has bonuses up to one rank higher than itself. Though I have had sim games where i achieved 100-200k rp and 1 mil sl so it really didnt take long.
As someone like myself who has playing this game for way too excesive long, I respect this mans skill, and to everyone saying that there aren't people worse than him, look at any toptier ground lobby after 2 minutes
What's funny is that many of these maps are 1:1 recreations, and most based on real places. And yeah, some tanks have a LOT of armor. It boils down to your understanding of the opponent's tank, what shells to use- and knowing not to go face-to-face with a stug. But yeah, it's a buggy mess sometimes too. Overall though, I enjoyed this vid man- subbin'.
I can’t help but notice that at least from the thumbnail,video ends at the CL13… one of the most ridiculously over tiered aircraft in the game. You get no countermeasures, no missiles, no radar, no afterburner, and at 9.0 or 9.3, you regularly face jets with all three of those advantages. It’s like running straight into a fucking brick wall that happens to be in a minefield. There is no more fun to be had unless you stick to custom battles, change nations, or buy a premium.
looking at you shooting APCR and be confused at how it does no dmg, really make me nostalgic of a time where I didn't know **too much** about this god forsaken game, hahaha
Throwing this into the abyss of comments but didnt even notice till now how little amount of subscribers this channel has for how much effort goes into these videos (ps freezed if your read loving vids as a recent subscriber)
Just watched this video and saw the Karaoke part for the first time. As a german, i just want to say that your pronunciation was really, really good. Very Nice Video
As someone with only 11 hours (10 being ground AB and 1 being air AB) and started last week, this is pretty interesting I'm researching the VK 3002 (M) right now, omw to leopard 2a6 Realized today that I basically have to grind 3 lines at once to fulfill the tier requirement
"I want to have fun with the harriers" Talking about the American tech tree, when there is the tech tree that created the plane which also has a much better version at the end of it. Ashamed
I've recently moved to solely playing Naval because the Ground RB grind is equivalent to that of living in a trench for 12 years. If only Gaijin would balance the grind across all aspects of the game the players would be so much happier.
I am a simple man, i see a fellow War Thunder Free 2 Play torture endurer, i subscribe. The snail decided to bless you in the end but you already had sufered the f2p grind, i'll be waiting for you next adventures, being War Thunder or not.
I started with Sweden and got jets kind of recently, the tec tree is alright although I mostly played air arcade because I had just started playing and wasn’t sure what I was doing. Some of the tanks are fun to take to high brs like the 150 mm with 5kg of tnt which can blow and tank up of you shoot in the right place. Love to see a video/ clip on that
me at the beginning " whats this music ive heard it before" the beat drops " ah yes now i remember its from jetnoob" ( where i heard it first at least)
I’m a German aviation player, and I decided to buy the MiG-21 SPS-K for this reasons: 1. It can grind up to rank 7, unlike the ju-288 2. It doesn’t destroy the game as much at the ju 3. I actually have fun, and I don’t just bomb and get 50k sl
bro. I'm loving your content and its scary how well you've absorbed war thunder information... try not to get too much into the toxicity of it though and keep playing what you enjoy. don't keep playing jets as missile-bait if it frustrates you, switch it up every other game. tips for ground rb... other than learning shell types, at least learn weakpoints on tanks that are difficult to knock out, or where ammo is stored. ground sucks because you really need to know the maps, and you can't learn them without playing them, thus ensuring suffering... plus low tier germany doesn't have a lot of variety to change up how you can play. cheers though, keep up the great work!
I watched 2 mistakes in tank battles near 32:00; 1 - Use your machine gun against planes and low armor enemies!; 2 - You are not using the right shells against the enemies (tank battle sucks). Oh, you've learned, I see. Nice!
You are just the most underrated warthunder youtuber ever!! I love your videos. I actually am trying to make videos myself. Excited for the next upload keep up the amazing content. 👍👍👍
31:34 You're using APCR rounds which are meant for heavily armed target, these rounds doesn't contain explosive filler, that's why you only penetrate through his armor even though its weak.
Its quite nice to see ones journy throu a game I too admit i have succumbed to the ju 288 so my opinion is probably invalidated but nonetheless i really enjoy your content and how freely you show the lows and highs of your journy May you continue the uploads and have the server hampsters on your side and well fed
I got a tip for you, when landing when you are under 100kph, I'd say around 90kph at best use your rudder, it can help slightly plus if you are confident those wheels ain't gonna snap you can hard turn with the rudder to force the plane into a quicker stop
Bro, if you ever grind the Soviet tree, get the su 11 premium, it’s not as op as it used to be, they reduced the ammo and put the br higher, but you can easily grind 40,000 research points if you get a 7 kill game, a 1kill game that you last the entire duration of the match and win will get you 10,000 rp. Absolutely love it. Got to the mig 21 in 3 days of casual grinding after work.
@@freezedvegetal np. some planes still kinda like to nose over when slow while using this trick. To counter that, simply hold the rudder in a single direction once you get under ~50kph. Your plane will do a little loopty loop and slow down a lot faster.
sadly that br range in jets is just shit because of the premiums with busted ass missiles but I would recommend dropping throttle when a missile comes at you it helps you dodge missiles a bit easier
Hey, just got the Vid recommended and subscribed, in the end of the ground RB Part you said that it is not fun ... yeah you're right it's pure pain but you'll have fun if get the Panther's (mostly Panther A and G) and the Tiger's 1-2

You're shooting HEAT and APCR, of course it's not going to do anything. "They saw you first"????? that's literally just a skill and experience issue? Not sure what you're complaining about there.
Of course, there are times where there's literally just nothing you can do. Sometimes your shell (even if you're using APHE) will just do nothing, or not even register the hit and go right through em. Sometimes you're being spawn camped and there's just too many of them (but you can always just look at the map before you spawn, see what's there and choose what tank to bring accordingly, or just not spawn. Yeah the map design is pretty shit sometimes. Also I respect your resolve to grind to rank 3 or 4 in germany instead of just giving up like a lot of people would after playing with the wrong ammo types.
37:55 lmao wtf?? never happened to me in my 1.5k hours that's funny af
39:06 lmaoo??
Anyways, good video man, have fun with actually good jets (fuck 7.0 jets tbh) and I hope you get better at ground so it can actually be fun for you.
I know this comment is a month old but i just wanted to mention, the A-4N didnt fire an aim9b, it was an aim9D, which pulls much harder.

Listening to this guy while grinding in war thunder in 4 am is something else
2 am here.
Almost got my first heli!
@@zack_the_nardo yoo keep on grinding!🫡
Playing with friends is a really great way to learn war thunder. MAKE SOME!
Friends don't let friends play warthunder.
All of mine hate the game :(
@@freezedvegetal hey I've been playing the game for years and would love to play with you. Also love this content. And the quips about new players getting prem/event jets
@@freezedvegetal have no friends :(
@@tunip4766 friends dont exist
From what I can tell, your issue in ground battles is that you're just always using the highest penetration shells without realizing what they do. When you were using the puma, you were using APCR shells, also known as the worst shells in the game. They really only work if you know where the primary ammo rack is and can hit it. At the ranks you're at, stick to APCBC or APBC shells for really armored tanks, and HEAT for light and SPAA
And I just watched the part where you explained it
Appreciate the advice regardless :)
Great video, I've been playing the game for like 4 years mostly ground rb but I really suck at flying airplanes. I've been trying a lot but I just find it really frustrating to fly around for like 10min and instantly die because of some stupid mistake:)
Edit: I just played two games in the 109G-6 and it probably made me quit the game for the rest of the week
Climb at 20 degrees and remember, in the g6 your goal is to gain altitude then dive and push people down. If they try turning around you when you dive on them, pull up hard and stall out above them.
@@freezedvegetal Thank you very much!
what nation are you flying?
nevermind germany
When I saw you heading towards that Su-25K head on, I was like "Oh no why???", then you said you forgot about the R-60M as he fired it. LMAO 🤣
It took me a second to process the fact that I was diving at a su25 in the head on lmao
The best way player under level 100 I have ever seen, seriously, gg bro
Thanks for the compliment :)
400?
*Laughs in 1,000 hours of pain*
Good for you

So for half of you tank low lights you are using just apcr you should be mostly using aphe and have a few rounds of he and apcr for open tops and hard targets respectively. But if you can get into it with aphe you should use aphe
Edit
For some tanks with very big guns like the kv-2 you only need he(or the ac round) because you can overpressure people
Aight, thanks for the advice
Look at the armour values of common heavy or strong medium around your battle rating, check the roof plates and top of the hull plates, if they're thin, even less derpy/avg HE shells can blow through. (So hit like the low part of the copula, something to trigger the fuze)
They're tricky shots yeah but I still bring a couple HE (and HESH when possible) shells in most of my tanks.
Lotta fun to also blow up fast squishy bois with a pretty bad shot.
Most advised for heavies that don't have top mounted MG, only coaxial MG with a slow af turret rotation.
HE, they're gone.
(Or when your gun depression doesn't go down enough and they taunt you, hit the wall close to them, sometimes it's strong enough to just kill them)
3:41 „GET DOWN MR PRESIDENT!“ ahh Gameplay
YOU’RE BACK?! AWESOME! You motivated me to go through this hell of a game to get jets.
Edi: nvm JU-288 user detected, opinion rejected…
Lmao, thanks for the support either way
he playing running in 90's in the background during the highlights, beautiful
activate the windows pls!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow! Great video. Happy to see you back. Keep up the amazing work. Love these videos!
Thanks for the support :) I appreciate it
what you did in 10:20 was pretty smart because he got that friendly kill and lost a lot of silver lions
"your missiles don't work on me bud"
*dies*
fr people who didn't watch the end missed out you got great singing skills shesh keep up the grind bro
yes, you have improved your pacing too!! great job!!!!
"OY dont kill me" is gonna be my new alarm sound
My favorite part of the video was the bonus clips and especially the music at the end😆😆😆
Him:try thinking about skill before buying a good premium
Him not even 2 seconds later: fails landing
Congratulations on being the fuel that lit the fire which is now my War Thunder addiction
I loved watching this mate, awesome gameplay!
Thanks :)
Thanks :)
i've played several days of sim battles (in terms of actual in game time) with the ju 288c and grinded almost the entire german air tech tree. I found that once you are going for rank 6 planes that the ju 288c loses its great grind because it only has bonuses up to one rank higher than itself. Though I have had sim games where i achieved 100-200k rp and 1 mil sl so it really didnt take long.
I cried when that dramatic He-162 landing unraveled.
As someone like myself who has playing this game for way too excesive long, I respect this mans skill, and to everyone saying that there aren't people worse than him, look at any toptier ground lobby after 2 minutes
What's funny is that many of these maps are 1:1 recreations, and most based on real places. And yeah, some tanks have a LOT of armor. It boils down to your understanding of the opponent's tank, what shells to use- and knowing not to go face-to-face with a stug. But yeah, it's a buggy mess sometimes too. Overall though, I enjoyed this vid man- subbin'.
Thanks for the advice and support :)
i have played exactley 402 hours and am on tier THREE WHAT AM I DOING WRONG
I can’t help but notice that at least from the thumbnail,video ends at the CL13… one of the most ridiculously over tiered aircraft in the game. You get no countermeasures, no missiles, no radar, no afterburner, and at 9.0 or 9.3, you regularly face jets with all three of those advantages.
It’s like running straight into a fucking brick wall that happens to be in a minefield. There is no more fun to be had unless you stick to custom battles, change nations, or buy a premium.
Ngl I didn’t actually use the cl13, I just couldn’t fit the lim5p into the thumbnail
@@freezedvegetal well if you decide to try to, buckle up and get some booze ready because you’ll need it for that grind
looking at you shooting APCR and be confused at how it does no dmg, really make me nostalgic of a time where I didn't know **too much** about this god forsaken game, hahaha
I'm glad to see that your Lowlights on ground is my normal experience on ground RB
Throwing this into the abyss of comments but didnt even notice till now how little amount of subscribers this channel has for how much effort goes into these videos (ps freezed if your read loving vids as a recent subscriber)
Thanks man, I appreciate the compliment :)
Just watched this video and saw the Karaoke part for the first time. As a german, i just want to say that your pronunciation was really, really good.
Very Nice Video
44:46 bro knows the lyrics💀💀💀
I have watched this video 5 times , i got the motivation from u and now im rank VI - in usa tech tree , thanks lad! Awesome content !
Yo I knew the force ethereal guy at 1:52 haven't talked in a minute but cool to see him here!
As someone with only 11 hours (10 being ground AB and 1 being air AB) and started last week, this is pretty interesting
I'm researching the VK 3002 (M) right now, omw to leopard 2a6
Realized today that I basically have to grind 3 lines at once to fulfill the tier requirement
Good time to start playing as the grind got shorter because they foldered a bunch of vehicles and foldered are half reasearch
How much do you touch grass?
Them: NEGATIVE! Attention to the designated grid zone! [D,3]
Average war thunder player
Those planes we're really Running In The 90th I'd say
"I want to have fun with the harriers" Talking about the American tech tree, when there is the tech tree that created the plane which also has a much better version at the end of it.
Ashamed
I've recently moved to solely playing Naval because the Ground RB grind is equivalent to that of living in a trench for 12 years. If only Gaijin would balance the grind across all aspects of the game the players would be so much happier.
you know they wont
I hope he tries naval when subs are added
25:08 you have a soul after 400 hours? I’m even more impressed.
The CC bonus is keeping it alive
I love this version of running through the 90's
i know this took a lot of effort and i enjoyed the video so i subbed a much earned sub keep up the good work man
ay great video man love the content!
Keep it up :)
I am a simple man, i see a fellow War Thunder Free 2 Play torture endurer, i subscribe.
The snail decided to bless you in the end but you already had sufered the f2p grind, i'll be waiting for you next adventures, being War Thunder or not.
Great video, do you know what tec tree you’ll do next after Germany?
already starting Sweden, beyond that it'll be USA and Britain
I started with Sweden and got jets kind of recently, the tec tree is alright although I mostly played air arcade because I had just started playing and wasn’t sure what I was doing. Some of the tanks are fun to take to high brs like the 150 mm with 5kg of tnt which can blow and tank up of you shoot in the right place. Love to see a video/ clip on that
I’m god awful at tanks. I would struggle to get a kill with it regularly💀
Do you think you’ll try to get to rank 8 eventually when I comes out?
I forgot to reply but yeah I’m going to
“We did nothing all game” felt that
Lmao
karaoke was my favorite lol keep up the good work
me at the beginning " whats this music ive heard it before" the beat drops " ah yes now i remember its from jetnoob" ( where i heard it first at least)
LOVE YOUR VIDS
The song he played at the end is called Erika and its about a flower.
I’m a German aviation player, and I decided to buy the MiG-21 SPS-K for this reasons:
1. It can grind up to rank 7, unlike the ju-288
2. It doesn’t destroy the game as much at the ju
3. I actually have fun, and I don’t just bomb and get 50k sl
I only get GE from the snail, not pack vehicles. If it was purchasable with GE I would’ve got it instead.
@@freezedvegetal sry man I’m really not into content creators advantages
bro. I'm loving your content and its scary how well you've absorbed war thunder information... try not to get too much into the toxicity of it though and keep playing what you enjoy. don't keep playing jets as missile-bait if it frustrates you, switch it up every other game. tips for ground rb... other than learning shell types, at least learn weakpoints on tanks that are difficult to knock out, or where ammo is stored. ground sucks because you really need to know the maps, and you can't learn them without playing them, thus ensuring suffering... plus low tier germany doesn't have a lot of variety to change up how you can play. cheers though, keep up the great work!
Love the video’s ❤
Thanks ❤️
I love the fact that most of ground RB highlights where in a plane
I watched 2 mistakes in tank battles near 32:00; 1 - Use your machine gun against planes and low armor enemies!; 2 - You are not using the right shells against the enemies (tank battle sucks).
Oh, you've learned, I see. Nice!
awesome vid man great quality and fun vibe keep it up
subbed, very enjoyable too watch! cant wait to see ur reaction to missile jets
You are just the most underrated warthunder youtuber ever!! I love your videos. I actually am trying to make videos myself.
Excited for the next upload keep up the amazing content. 👍👍👍
Thanks for the compliment and best of luck :)
31:34 You're using APCR rounds which are meant for heavily armed target, these rounds doesn't contain explosive filler, that's why you only penetrate through his armor even though its weak.
Appreciate your content bro!
Its quite nice to see ones journy throu a game
I too admit i have succumbed to the ju 288 so my opinion is probably invalidated but nonetheless
i really enjoy your content and how freely you show the lows and highs of your journy
May you continue the uploads and have the server hampsters on your side and well fed
thankyou sir :)
Thanks a lot because it’s hard to find video like this i love it😊
Good vid bro
U deserve so much more support ur such a great content creator and deserve so much more support
WOOOHOOOOO i m early. I love these kind of videos and i m excited to watch this one. Cheers
Thanks for your support :) means alot
I loved this video so much bro!! Keep up the work❤
Thanks :)
@@freezedvegetal im new to the war thunder communaty got any tips?😁
I got a tip for you, when landing when you are under 100kph, I'd say around 90kph at best use your rudder, it can help slightly plus if you are confident those wheels ain't gonna snap you can hard turn with the rudder to force the plane into a quicker stop
I had no clue you could do that, thanks for the advice :)
@44.20 fuck i pissed myself laughing
21:58 as a finnish person i had a seizure right after you pronounced that 😭🙏
As a German I have to say that you sang along well to the song Ereka xD
Bro, if you ever grind the Soviet tree, get the su 11 premium, it’s not as op as it used to be, they reduced the ammo and put the br higher, but you can easily grind 40,000 research points if you get a 7 kill game, a 1kill game that you last the entire duration of the match and win will get you 10,000 rp. Absolutely love it. Got to the mig 21 in 3 days of casual grinding after work.
Great content, idk how you have such a low view to sub ratio but this is very entertaining
Thank you sir
I got 385 hours on this game, and recently got a premium jet, never crashed on take off, but ive seen loads of mig-29 and f-16 crash
damn great vidoe 40 minutes just disappeared and i didnt even realise. cool to see more aussie creators
Tip, spam left + right rudder while braking and you won't nose over *at least in 99% of scenarios*
added benefit that you will slow down faster
This is extremely helpful. Thank you so much :)
@@freezedvegetal np. some planes still kinda like to nose over when slow while using this trick. To counter that, simply hold the rudder in a single direction once you get under ~50kph. Your plane will do a little loopty loop and slow down a lot faster.
I as a german aprove of 45:00
That german is very nice keep it up
sadly that br range in jets is just shit because of the premiums with busted ass missiles but I would recommend dropping throttle when a missile comes at you it helps you dodge missiles a bit easier
Aight, thanks for the advice. Also nice pfp
man its been so long and im still watching this over and over again 😂
The song at the end tho 💀😂
Hey, just got the Vid recommended and subscribed, in the end of the ground RB Part you said that it is not fun ... yeah you're right it's pure pain but you'll have fun if get the Panther's (mostly Panther A and G) and the Tiger's 1-2
Ok, I’ll try
I absolute love your videos! I'm new to ur channel, but I'm getting a lot of knowledge from it.
