You sold yourself to the most shitty and annoying game ad.
I despise you!
erm i would rather die nty
Worst game you could have sponsored, but you need that buck eh?
Nope,i'd rather play war thunder
First tip is useful only in arcade
a USEFUL video about war thunder instead of useless facts? Inconceivable!
absolutely unthinkable
The princess bride?
Fell off hard
For real 😂
First “fact” is an absolute lie
0:11 I hate this
'Wot' ah stealth😭💀💀
bro its not even realistic, like I dont think a tank vanishes into the shadow realm if my crew doesnt have much skill in real life
@@superpoopflamer9465nah they just forgot their glasses
As a loser, I mean raid Shadow Legends player. The rewards that they just gave are the equivalent of handing out a 1.3. BR heavy tank
Simultaneously impressive but also practically useless?
I mean it's raid what do you expect?
@@Kea_76 10.0
Actually once used squadmarker+pythagorean theorem (and a calculator) to snipe a hellcat from 1.6 km in my sturmpanzer II xb
Best feeling ever when that worked!
I myself subscribe to the method of "eyeball it and adjust depending on how much you missed"
Jokes aside I've got like uhhhh *checks Steam* holy fuck 2,209 hours in this piece of shit, so I can usually be pretty close, and I know some ranges by heart. Honestly though some elitist gamer might bitch at me I also open the map, pinch the edges of the range indicator with my fingers and vaguely stack them on an imaginary line between me and my squad marker. Does it dirty my screen? Yes, but I can just clean it.
1. As a LT with scouting ability, if you scout an enemy and if you also dmg it, you get double assists. One for dmg it yourself, and one for scouting assist kill. Can be useful for more rewards and completing assist related tasks.
2. For planes with wing sweep ability, go into controls and bind some keys to wing sweep, when at the start of the battle, press the wing sweep toggle to manual and sweep the wings to 0% and then toggle back to auto. This way in dogfights when you need full wing lift advantage, quickly press toggle to "manual sweep" and you wings will immediately go to straight position.
Good stuff, thanks for the tips
0:25 this is actually game changing for me, grinding crew skills is a massive thing, as crew skills are one of the most op things in game
Buy top tier premium tank, grind 50 matches in a slot, fully upgrade the crew, pay 10k SL to grind another crew slot.
Or pay golden eagles for 15000 experience points and max the crew with 40€
@@Paronak litle issue: In f2p

@@Paronak How have I never thought of this? Time to start the grind once again!
@Mika-ph6kuhe isn't poor because he didn't spend 500$ on golden eagles 😂
2,000 hours, yet I've learnt many new things
3000 air rb battles and I’m only now learning landing repairing and then leaving your aircraft will allow me to change my loadout , ie for when there’s one guy running around and there are bases and ground targets to be bombed , so I can swap from my 8missile/gun pod combo loadout to a full bomb loadout and head on missiles
4:29 only VTOL planes can capture zones now.
Which is a shame. You should totally be able to cap if you can pull it off with a plane.
Bummer, I didn't know that, thanks for sharing
You actually used to be able to and it’s even been featured in older Thunder Show episodes. I used to do it myself cause it was fun to try. However, Gaijin removed the ability for fixed wing aircraft (excluding VTOL) to do this with I believe the excuse of “it was a broken game mechanic because players could decap a point too easy” which is such BS
@Mika-ph6ku i dont think decaping was to easy because in my opinion that forced the Team controlling the cap to Also secure the cap so they had a task and Not only spawncamping
9:02 More people need to know this, I've gotten TK'd so many times from teamates who had plenty time to do this, yet they didn't, and I died because they don't know what a sherman looks like.
Average low to mid-tier sim experience lol
... but couldn't it be an enemy sherman? Theres a lot of shermans in a lot of tech trees. I could be missing something though I dont play sim
I mean sometimes those Italians get on your nerves with those land-lease vehicles
@@misterperson3469 It could, but
1: I was facing the enemy side, not towards any teamates.
2: I was standing still, the teamate that killed me very easily couldve looked at me for 3 seconds and pressed R.
3: Enemy shermans couldn't even be where I was because the match just started and I was trying to snipe flankers.
@@zescoot2590 Italy does have alot of lend-lease vehicles, but you can distinguish between italian and american shermans by their color. This only works if you're not playing a snow or desert map. I have stated 3 points in a previous reply, as to why I want people to use their brains.
3:56 You actually don't need Pythagoras here. Just bring out a plastic ruler, measure the distance on the minimap, measure the width of one box on the minimap and use the map scale conversion formula via cross multiplication. My buddy and I use this to lob 380mm Sturmtiger shells across the map from spawn and snipe 1.6km+ kills. Once you have the formula, you can get a shot off within 5 seconds of pinging
the ess trick is great. absolutely didnt know that. but kinda logical in hindsight
I have a crippling addiction to war thunder. I'm never playing raid.
3:48 Another tip is set your measurement of distance to Km. You know: Kilometer. Even if you can’t read it, it’s recommended to do that. In ground battles, your crosshair is in measurements of Meters, no matter what you set your things to. Like 8 is 800 meters. Measure the tank compared to said cap. For example: a tank is roughly 2 squares away from the cap. You are 2 squares, and the cap is .7 km. Double that, and it’s 1.4. .7 is 700 meters, 1000 meters being a kilometer. So in 3 seconds, you just gathered that the enemy tank is roughly 1400 meters.
If a tank is 5 squares away, and you are one, and the cap is .3 km away, that’s 300 meters. Multiply that by 5. So 5 times 3 is 1500. 1500 meters, or on the cross hair put it between 14-16, which is 15. Fire.
That’s how I rangefind in lower BR so inhumanly quick and accurately. You’re welcome
To help those that don’t understand:
1 kilometer is 1000 meters.
.5 km is 500 meters
1.5 is 1500 meters
You get the gist. Metric is multiples of 10
7:56 you do not have to be rearmed, if you are not damaged you can J out as soon as you stop and rearm timer starts. You can even use it to rearm faster by just spawning again if you dont have a ground crew trained
I like how you go STRAIGHT into the tips instead of any introduction.
4:30 actually planes can NO LONGER capture capture points, because gaijin removed that feature, because apparently some people kept touching capture zones and neutralizing them using planes. Saw that in a mythbuster video. But Helicopters still can.
0:01 what in the world of tanks did i just hear? I always thought the invisible thing was glitches with occlusion culling. How is that supposed to work for RB where you spot things with your eyes?
exactly! That works only in arcade mode
@@jtucehok I see, whenever I play arcade customs and someone hasn't been "spotted" (their name tag appear), I can almost always still see them with my actual eyes if I'm lucky and are not invisible. Do they turn invisible only under certain circumstances or something? I have fairly high lvl crew but have usually ignored keen vision because I thought it was only for arcade and I usually only play realistic and yet I've only had invisible tanks happen a handful of times, usually I can still actually see them even without name tag appearing.
7:17 the distance is height not distance from you so make sure you remember that!
Me who's preparing to do a German grind tomorrow with the Tiger 1 H as my highest BR rating vehicle
*HANS WRITE THESE DOWN WRITE THESE DOWN*
Damn, that is indeed useful
This video is sponsored by *RAID SHADOW LEGENS!!!!*
I thought they ran out of their marketing budget like 2 years ago 💀
As soon as I found the zoom out in air sim, my life changed. Best feature ever.
FINALLY I KNOW WHERE THE MISSION EDITOR IS THANK YOU SO MUCH
at an angle, to determine a tanks range on the map you can just use a ruler instead by premeasuring each grid square at the start of the game and using basic division or multiplication to find a really accurate approximate of the enemies distance
That is actually genius lol
@@skDoger thanks, didnt expect you to reply lol
Yea thats actually god tier info. It is however less impactful for a fair percentage of playerz since some play on console and tvs are generally further away than the screens of pc users.
I hardly ever play ground rb but recently I discovered that you could change the language that your crew speaks to whatever language you may be familiar with, it might be useful for players who have a hard time understanding what their crew is saying when they play nations that don't use their native language, all you have to do is set your crew language to "game options" in your sound settings, I tried it out in my most recent rb matches and it does work.
I don't know if anyone else has pointed this out before but I thought I'd mention it anyway for those who don't already know.
Ooo that's a good one, I'll include it in the next episode
Pretty useful like the tip to understand the rangefinding when crew is Japanese. Sorry to the Japan, but learning Japanese only to understand "bersaglio a 850 metri" is sad. Learn Italian instead, is much simple. I'm joking, is my native language.
3:29 this is a really cool trick and adds a lot of value to the squad marker feature even if you didn't get put in a squad! And as you say, it's great for artillery and estimating distance too!
Been waiting for another one of these from you for a bit, I'm happy now
3:59 Sir, we dont have a rangefinder..
HANS! BRING OUT THE CALCULATOR!
4:30 a year ago there was an update that removed ability to capture points by normal planes, now it has to be a VTOL plane :/
8:39 the crew will always say the range if your mouse is exactly on the enemy tank when you activate rangefinder
Damn that's a shame, thanks for letting me know
@@skDogerYes and good thing is, the crew tells you the range before the range green bar is filled. Useful in low mid tier.
Well not in the Jap tech tree, but useful for german french italian and US.
yeah I found that first one out the hard way. i guess landing planes on caps was just too easy so they had to remove it to force skillful gameplay
I think the arcade crew skill is like that because you can only grind 3 crew in a game, while rb you can do all 10 if you do good enough and the battle lasts
Hmm, makes some sense
When pinging on the map for squamates instead of opening the map with M and then clicking to ping for team mates you can simply just hold the ALT key as default and click on the minimap. Same goes for disabling radio of people in game chat you can hold ALT to freely move your mouse around then right click their name in the chat :)
@@CrashesAndDestruction Thanks for sharing!
@skDoger No problem, hope this helps! Once I found out about those 2 little tricks there's not a game that goes by where I don't ping using the minimap, it is very handy! Happy gaming :)
I just cant convince myself to turn my engine noise down... i love hearing these awesome old engines & theyre all so unique its really cool! I do turn my teammates down a bit though, so enemies are more audible & i know what theyre driving half the time, just by the sound of their engine & tracks
Fair enough lol
this is the reason why im bingewatching all your videos and subscribed
7:56 You only doesn't need to be damaged, any kind of damage even if is a yellow part will send you to the hangar, it doesn't matter how much ammo or fuel you have, you can rearm and refuel faster with that trick 8:37 this depends of your crew rangefinding skill in the case your tank doesn't have a rangefinder or lase-finder, in which case always they are going to tell you those details
You can also adjust your seat in sim, to move your reticle up, and give you better line of sight over your nose to get hits on what would be blind targets
Oh that's pretty good, I'll have to include it in the next episode thanks
For ranging I actually do a quick estimate of distance using the cap points and Pythagorean theorem. Thought it was funny you mentioned that.
I swear to god, one day, I'll calculate the distance from diagonally and straight lines on every map and every size in war thunder just to be safe.
The ESS info 😮I did not know about turning off the engine , I gotta do it now😂
7:50 funnily enough this has some function in ground battles. Landing and repairing fully, and then J-ing out allows you to not pay repairs for your plane *and* you’re denying the enemy a kill.
I always hear my crew say “Tank __ o’clock range” but never a number
I actually use the trick about firing your MG to see enemy weakpoints, has helped save me from firing at an empty ammo rack a few times
Oh the ordnance chage in air is what I'm interested in!!! I've complained so much about not being able to swap to different ordnance after landing. But no one told me I was an idiot yet so I guess most people didn't know that. Now just add it to GRB.
that open map in browser thing is so useful, I was always wishing I could have my map and chats on my 2nd monitor. idk why games like this cant just have a settings option to open those windows on a 2nd monitor through the game engine though.
8:15 holy hell, thank you! I've been trying for ages to figure out how to do this 😭
I already knew a couple of the other tips but the ones I didn't certainly are very useful
Since quite some time, regular aircraft can’t cap zones anymore. Only VTOL stuff can
I always love these because sometimes I actually learn something new
3:59 why do i want to actually make that work
You can land a hell of a trickshot if you can manage it lol
Custom missions are nice and all but the AI just goes in circles around your tail, crash into each other or keep trying to outclimb friendlies which are trying to outclimb the enemies so you end up with hurricanes at 10km high with their nose at 45° it's a bit better with no friendlies on your team but not a whole lot.
8:51 now THATS the most useful tip in this video
I never upgraded keen vision on anything because I thought it was only for arcade. Damn
Oh what? I didn't know crew skill was based on how much RP you make. So this is why higher rank premium time and premium vehicles give you more crew XP
Tanks derendering is also an issue in the sight but it is further (i had tanks dissappear aa around 2.5-3 km wich is like 1.5-2 miles and re appearing after shooting with my lvl 150 expert crew)
thanks to your previous videos I already knew some of that, wich really helped me in the past. Thank you for that.
would be nice if map coordinates were in multiples of 1000 or 500. Ever had to calculate squares on the fly when Gaijin decided the map scale distance for squares was 475?? who thought of that as the default number?
if the enemy is diagonal to the map draw an imaginary circle with you in the middle and place the circumference with the mark
8:00
u dont have to be rearmed to j out
works very good to instantly spawn again
the map distance thing was one of the first things i thought of for long distance shots, it's a shame i'm too bad at math to use it
you can always estimate. if you see from the map lines they are about 1000m away, but slightly diagonal, just shoot 1200m. because of the tanks height its usually good enough to get a hit
Thank you for your video
it is very fun to watch
I sure love me some useless warthunder information
You dont have to be rapired when j Ing out in air rb, you just have to be not damaged
1:10 wait that's so useful
Good selection of tips; you might want to visually show every keybind you reference in the menu so people can search for them, naming things in the English localisation is very inconsistent and unpredictable.
Yeah I slipped up there, I'll keep it in mind next time
7:51 I swear ive done this in ground RB many times but its been a couple months, but i know it used to work at least
warthunder is secretly wot with the crew awareness skill I see.
OH THAT EXPLAINS WHY THINGS DE-RENDER THEN MURDER ME.
I've noticed trying to set the BR range for bots is useless in custom battles. They tend to use one tier of tanks below what you're using
Yeah that happens with certain BRs, it's really annoying. From my experience it'll either be reserve stuff, mid-tier or top-tier. If you're lucky though it will sometimes be the range you want, it might depend on the gamemode you're using
Even if they do more damage to bases, we all know that nobody is gonna use them still.
you should do a video about radio messages and there effects took me a while to figure them out.
Good idea! I'll add that to the list
wow, realy helpful .... thx dude :)
No way the keen vision actually makes people invisible, im pretty sure its just for arcade and air RB for displaying enemy player names
Being able to magically reduce your own engine volume should not be possible in realistic battles or sim. It should be one engine sound slider
This is VERY useful.
7:55 only repaired needed. Rearmed is not needed.
"The three people that play air sim" dude you have no idea how many games are happening simultaneously with filled lobbies in air sim right now. 😅
I know lol it was just a bit of banter
Incendiary bombs seem to have more drag on the aircraft for some reason. I think you can change your ammo type and amount by adjusting it by adjusting it in map and then driving onto a cap. Please confirm.
How can you discover if you are up-tiered in Air RB where your 'line up' is only one vehicle?
I'll have to check out that ammo trick, it has big potential thanks
Also as far as I know there's no real way to check for uptiers in air RB, maybe wait until some of your allies spawn and look at the BRs of their vehicles
@@skDogerI just checked in arcade. I started with five shells, used three and when I got onto the cap, I got topped up to five and nothing more. I have to say that was a tad disappointing.
when you hover over the secondary weapon loadouts in the weapon selector it will tell you how much drag that loadout adds to your aircraft. the numbers themselves arent very useful, but if the number is 2x bigger you at least know that loadout has 2x the drag
I may be broken cuz Im actually surprised that people dont know this things
8:00 this also technically isn't true. The way the system counts the rearming is *technically* a death. Therefore, the system works as intended in ground RB, saving the aircraft and allowing you to use it again without a backup. Although, due to the "death", the spawn cost is still raised. Since air RB doesn't have spawn costs, this doesn't apply but the system works the same. It's a little janky haha
Ah makes sense lol, thanks for explaining
@@skDoger yeah ofc! Love your videos :D
You don’t need a second monitor to see your stats in the battle. Use WTRTI instead
8:35
Good luck if you have it set to original language.
I’m partially learning Russian because of it.
only vtol and helis can cap ground points they made it so regular aircraft cant about a year ago
I expect some N.C.223.3 sim gameplay soon
Estimated time of arrival April 1st 2040
4:38 actually this isn't true. Fixed wing aircraft USED to be able to capture zones, however now only VTOL aircraft and helicopters can. (Interestingly enough, this applies to all game modes. In air RB with the capturable zones, even if you clear all enemies defending the area, you still can't capture zones. Yes this includes airfields too. It's kind of silly and I don't like it much)
War thunder the only game where you have to grind render distance
actually im pretty sure planes can no longer cap in ground battles. I recently landed my plane on a cap and nothing happened
0:10 and they say WoT is inaccurate because you cant see targets on the horizon
Then the snails always gives me full uptiers
4:00 I just have a ruler by my monitor that I can slap on it
7:14 sadly planes cant actually see the bearing indicator on the hud
every crew member has a keen vision stat, which one of them should be upgraded?
It doesn't matter, the skill is shared across all the crew, so your tank will get the same effect regardless of who has the upgrade. Check out my crew skills guide if you want to learn more
Thanks bro
only problem with the fake camo at 6:00 is that now in summer maps you have a bright white camo
True lol
Some tanks have different camos for different environments.
Like if your tank has a snow camo for a snowy environment you can select the snowy camo and make it better by placing white decals on it which will only affect that camo for snowy environments while the summer and desert camos stay without or with different decals
@@MilanKrumevski yes but my point is that he put white decals on a summer camo so if you dont have 2 summer camos on the vehicle you HAVE to use either desert camo, winter camo, or fake winter camo
0:01 I tought my pc is bad🤣🤣🤣
Lmao I had to zoom all the way in in the replay to get the shot
i hate the fact turning down your settings, removing grass and using the barrel sight is a tip at all.
i wish this wasn't possible because the advantage against those who do not use this is too much.
3:40 for me is use ruler and calculator to calculate ratio
Finally a use for the fucking triangle thing
I thought keen vision was for scouting 😭
When did we start using world of tanks mechanics
8:01 yeah found that out the hard way…
Not the raid ad 💀
