dislikes dont make it so maps are seen less often, it does nothing but tell the devs what maps arnt liked, this is easily seen by the point that a lot of people get their dislikes maps as often as their liked maps
I did that so long ago that I forgot I did it because there was absolutely no noticeable difference... And yet I still stay with the Snail Lords for some unknown reason...
I still dont understan why the block vertical aim is useful, the gun simply moves way to much when stopping and then you have to wait even more for it to reach your aim???
Right??? Spawn in a heavy and oh, everyone is already engaged 1km ahead of you, match will be over by the time I get there. Or in a light, you can’t get to the flank in time to scout.
I like how you can choose not to see fictional camos but when someone plants a small forest in front of their tank and they wouldn't be able to see shit, that's fine 😂

Great vid. I think that "Block vertical aiming..." is a potential game changer for me. Has been so frustrating and didn't know there was anything that could be done about it.
@@Skyrim279 Stops the overcorrectiono of the gun aiming while moving. He demonstrated it perfectly in the video. Imagine you are driving and you see an enemy and notice a dip in front of you. You can learn to time your shot even while your tanks moves up and down vertically. If you add in the game trying to adjust itself, it's just another variable that you have to try and account for; and like he said, when you stop moving up and down from the dip, your gun can be in a bad position (pointed up) to take the first shot.
I think a good setting you could have added is the set target for squad, which lets you set markers when you spot enemy tanks. I wish more people knew about that. Controls > Common > Set target for squad
@the option at ~ 7:45 i do highly recommand for tryhard new players. if you get killed by a enemy player and feel like he is cheating. go to the replay and watch him go. this way you will see what lead up to him killing you. and pretty much every time it will not have to do with cheating at all.
As a new player only just cracked rank 3... one thing that really helped me was assigning a button to lock the turret so you can be cruising or sneaking easily checking flank or rear... or keep ya turret in certain position to jump out for a peak..a..boo kill. Starting out I was getting smashed so much from having the gun pointing the wrong way
@@ichdu6132 You do know that some people dont a NASA Supercomputer lying around to play War thunder. And turning of grass can actually really increase the FPS for these people. I used to play on a garbage laptop and had like 25 fps with grass and 30 without the grass.
@@ichdu6132 I understand the sentiment, if war thunder were a game just released today, they would definitely do that. However, since the game is quite old doing something that stops players that could run the game at low (they definitely exist) but really can't handle the grass. Personally I find grass popping in and out of view when aiming down sight a bit too jarring, so I turned down the grass completely. Sure looks like shit, but I rather have it look consistent. Knowing it is optional, ideally the grass would have to be very low, so it doesn't block your view, sadly they made it quite high giving a clear advantage to disabling it.
Brooo that block vertical aiming while braking is a freaking game changer I didn't knew about it I remember a loooot of situations where i miss my shoots in critical moments because i needed to stabilize my gun after braking Thanks bro you got a sub
I'm honestly surprised you didn't mention the "view from gunner sight - off" setting but at the same time I, as 3500 h war thunder veteran, had no idea about that "block vertical guidance while braking" being a thing.
You forgot squadron markers. Not only for squadrons, but so you can see your marker on both maps to guess distance / or how far you can see into a zone
guys dont enable the block vertical aiming if you're in a non stablized but fast gun elevation tank such as high speed sp aa or armored car. your braking takes super long and the gun doesn't aim even it could
Problem with blocking vertical aiming while braking is that it also completely blocks vertical aiming while turning which can fk up a lot. Also if if have good aim and capable of firing during this "swing" when turret goes up from down after breaking then it is actually faster to shoot without it. And finally it can also fk up with firing on the move. Only useful if u really struggle with aim, otherwise better to learn to play without it
OH MY GOD. All these years and I didn't know about "Block vertical aiming while braking". If i had known about this it would have saved me hundreds of rage inducing moments. Thank you!
@@fosty.😂 you shouldn't tell other people what to do or how to feel either yet here we are..........side note, I had no clue on the vertical aim setting either.
That tip at 5:00 about turning off grass was huge. This grass doesn't have a hitbox so it won't detonate my HEAT shells, so why have it there obstructing view? I can also tell you I've definitely died to an opponent shooting me out in the open, hidden by tall grass.
broooooo the nations holidays option is really cool i wish there was an All option, just to see all the cool things gaijin does for the holidays around the world.
Coming back from about a 2 year break and man had the game changed drastically. Been spending alot of time in naval but it just feels like it's a bunch of bots. Nobody caps idk I guess it's my wows experience over all really been enjoying war thunder again.
@@jamestriplett5854 tried it and no when your turret is fast it doesnt help much because you shoot before compensating xD (pro tip dont wait your enemy kill you) much useful on low depression tank like russians i would say, 0° depression is perfect with it
would be great to see you make a video or videos going over all your control schemes for tanks and aircraft, as I've been reaching higher tiers I've been struggling to figure out a setup that works for me
This can be difficult because many gaming PC's peripherals aren't standard like a console can be. I sometimes use a gamepad instead of the keyboard, depending if I'm flying vs using ground vehicles, plus my mouse has 9 configurable buttons I preset for whatever tier I'm playing/squad commands. This I found personally helps my gaming. So, I must imagine that a content creator MAY have to make some substitutions too, not having the basic peripherals.
My controls make no sense to anyone but me, haha. I'm convinced that if I shared them, I'd probably be laughed out of the community, while simultaneously hurting other peoples' playstyles.
Missed what is IMHO a pretty major one: Going to PostFX and putting the filter to ''Sepia'' when you get a night battle, brightens everything so you don't need to reply on shitty and grany NV equipment.
