I think I used SIM custom sights form this pack(I got it long time ago) live.warthunder.com/post/719009/en/ It's been a long time since I played SIM. When you don't have any kinds of markers, friendly fire is on, and no 3rd person peaking around corners it definitely hits different. And some of the maps are massive. Give it a try ;)
Well playing Sim with my beloved partner when possible is fun with stock sight(is hard but fun) I just enjoy it when is friendly fire because cost penalty *chuckle*
*shell misses, lands under the tank* gaijin: "nuked" *128mm aphe shell hits the side of the tank right into sensitive part of suspension* gaijin:"quantum teleportation portal activated"
To be fair, it is quite common for explosions near a tank to detrack them and result in a mobility kill. The rule of thumb is artillery strikes within 50m can risk a mobility kill for a tank. For the latter though... yeah... not so much.
I just don't get how BMP full of expensive atgms have lower repair cost than a tank with stabilizer. Also, falcon at 8.0 instead of 7.0-7.3 makes me question life.
Once upon a time, simulator was just a normal gamemode. I loved it because you couldn't get revenge bombed by planes(there was no plane in SB or RB ground forces back then). It was the most fun I had with GF.
SB was dead once they removed the markings of friendly players from everywhere. Since then its just everyone randomly roaming around with no one knowing what is happening
More sim vids would be a treat! I think its a "safe" haven for now away from GRB. Potentially better teammates, CAS is less effective as it actually takes somewaht skill from the cockpit view(compared to ground RB), true gunner sights make it satisfying to get a long range snipe.
I actually stopped playing cause the M61 ruined the last BR I could really have fun in. 5.7 used to be so much fun, you weren't just shitting on new people cause the BR is to low and the tanks were all mostly balanced. But unfortunately now playing 5.7 is just M61 thunder.

It's more fun imo, two reasons are the lack of cas and people that play SIM tanks have better awareness on both sides so it feels like you're not playing against bots.
A few years ago someone wrote up an entire proposal for proper combined arms EC, Naval, Ground and Air. Captureable bases, logistics, and a massive amount of players for it. Too bad the netcode can't even handle naval ec with 40 players.
Sim is probably the best gamemode... except when people used captured vehicles, many times i've killed friendly italian vehicles because they are in un-marked allied vehicles and not pinging their location ever. Other than that, 10/10
Honestly rather get tk'd by a teammate when im in my captured german stuff because no pts for enemy and free repair for me 😁 Edit: also fun to roll up next to the enemy and see if they notice im on the other team lol
If you're ever unsure if it's an enemy or friendly, if the situation allows for it you should hit them with an MG and see if you get credit for a hit. Captured vehicles are very dangerous for the opposing team when they're used correctly. Also should take note of what captured vics are on your team and remember where they go so you have a general idea of their whereabouts.
I really, REALLY want a 1 hour video of Dollar's favorite tanks (especially the Maus) just rolling across the map while listening to his playlist Great video man
Dollar I think you just inspired me to try sim battles again. Last time I went near those was a year and a half ago. Don't think I'll do as well as you but it's worth a shot! Great vid as always!
I play sim only, cannot stand 3rd person view, gunsight inside gun barrel, mix nations and easymode airplanes in RB. Few tips: - T-4-1 "Follow me" is used as "This is my position" as it places marker on map. Use it often. - alt+click on minimap to mark enemies. - in battle mode when each team starts with one cap, spam message to your team to defend. A team which defends their cap usually wins.
Thank you for this video. I mainly play simulator battles and I'm very glad that a youtuber teaches others how it works, because 90% of the team can't play, so every second battle my teammate get shoot me , thank you very much, and I hope it changes this time. :)
Truly a gem, after getting some nations fully unlocked I've been playing simulator battles since I can't decide what to use and it's truly a treat, watching enemies team kill XD and any CAS kills are actually satisfying to get
@@DOLLARplays The issue arises when a copy-pasta finds a nation-specific vehicle. For example, an Italian M24 and Cromwell spot each other as they both drive onto a street. The Italian M24 immediately knows the Cromwell is an enemy while the Cromwell has to stop and identify if it's American, if he even can since it's so easy to dress up the M24 to _look_ American. This gives the M24 a head-start to get the first shot off unless the Cromwell indiscriminately shoots at every M24 he meets after entering the battlefield. Not very optimal IMO.
@@no-legjohnny3691 It's hella painful. You have to know the slightly different shades of green camo to tell them apart. Italian Hellcats have no mantlet covers.
@@no-legjohnny3691 well, it's a double edge sword...when driving a captured vehicle you indeed gain highground over an encounter thanks to hesitation but you also tend to be friendly fired quite a lot so you can't roam the map freely. I took the habit to put insignas of my real nation everywhere on the freaking tank: rear, sides, top (for planes but I doubt they can see it honnestly), sometimes even front (on KW1C for exemple, because side ones aren't needed since you easely spot the german 75, but facing it the muzzle can be hard to spot)

i do that but its either not that good or just buggy, sometimes it just doesnt work, other times it just stops because theyre moving or a little bush covers half a track, or you literally have to look at them for a longer period of time and maybe die

@@liamboyle9199 I was just wining the depression argument, if I shot atgms, I would also be severely depressed to know the only way I can kill an enemy is Tru a propelled heat round
its also not a sim battle if you dont shoot a american covered in bushes and find out its not an enemy american tank but one of your allies driving a lendlease. And he's hidden the only identification markings behind all those bushes. And then get called a trash player like its your fault And then you get teamkilled by someone driving the exact same tank as you

That happens. Try to play with native vehicles since stuff like American m4 get people confused when fighting against Americans 😂 Like I wanted to shoot that m26 And the second guy probably was confused as that Panther in my video
You should try using a Sherman and pretending your on the enemy team. There are like 8 Sherman’s in every tech tree so they could totally think it’s an ally.
My sim moment: Italian Pershing, literally spawned alongside a friend in a Tiger II and I'm already being shot by "fellow" German tankers. I then get damaged and killed not even leaving the first block of the map. This is why I don't play sim often. People don't learn there's vehicle recognition and whatnot.
14:20 and 14:50 is 1 reason why I always carry 2 rounds of HE - their armor was so thin the fuse wasn't being triggered on the explosive shells so your basically just firing solid shot, with less spalling.
Anyone remembers the time when Simulator battles were no "event" but regularly available same as arcade/realistic battles? Todays sim battles suck since even lowtier has some OP post-ww2 vehicles in it and russian tanks of 6.0 up are nearly unpenetratable by germans of equal BR
I've been playing alot of sim recently and its actually not as bad as you make it seem I've played at all brs with Russian and German and I have no issue killing Russian tanks 6.0 and up, honestly might be a skill issue
I used to play a lot of sim battles, but they added a lot of nations, and prototypes tanks, and everyone gets a sherman... My small brain finds it difficult to know who to shoot... I think they should make sim battles historically accurate, and avoid these rare tanks altogheter. Great work, btw Dollar... Big fan! Greetings from Brasil!
Dude I've been waiting for you to do a sim and you've already done it. You're just the best! I'd love to see your masterful skills applied in sim more. I need to see more!! 🤘🤘🤘💪💪💪💪✌️✌️❤️❤️❤️
Hey dollar another great video my friend! And some good news I finally managed to scrounge up some cash to finally be able to get your decal! I love how it looks on my heavy tanks such as the maus! Thanks for all you do!
Sim is the best and my favorite mode. Baby tigor vs m18s ftw. and those pilots were on point bombing you! soo much harder with cockpit view and all the air feedback. loved the vid
Dude never get rid of the synth theme you’ve got. Absolutely love it and I need a 1 hour long version of the intro to listen to while I work. Do you mix your own music? Edit: I found the song lol. “Never or Right Now” for those that want it.
I'd love to see you play more simulator battles with realistic/custom gun sights. You played custom ones. If you would like to give some more realistic german ones a shot, there are the ones made by RideR2 which I can recommend. Still a blast to watch xD
I was playing "only" SIM for quite a while, TKs here and there didn't bother but when I got killed by a Tiger 1 WHILE playing a Tiger 1, I knew I had to stop.
I’d still be running SB if it were as it was before that event tab switch that killed simbattles when compared to what they were. It worked the same as RB from the version I played. Had a few pilots in ground sb, but not anything like we see in Realistic Battles… as pilots were not as easily able to provide real CAS in SB.
Honestly if I want to play ground sim, I play Enlisted, on one of the custom modes, it let's me play as an actual tank with infantry support. I'd love to play a 100 player battle with 20 tanks, 20 recon trucks, and some planes, then everyone else is infantry. Or even combine enlisted and war thunder into one game like EvE and Dust514 did, but where the tanks can traverse the whole large map, but infantry can only spawn at objective battlefields. All planes and tanks have war thunder style handling, and all infantry handles like enlisted. Possibly taking a page from hell let loose and having each team have a captain that gives orders to the players to try to best position them to win the battle.
I think I used SIM custom sights form this pack(I got it long time ago) live.warthunder.com/post/719009/en/

I used to play a lot of sim battles, but they added a lot of nations, and prototypes tanks, and everyone gets a sherman... My small brain finds it difficult to know who to shoot... I think they should make sim battles historically accurate, and avoid these rare tanks altogheter.
Great work, btw Dollar... Big fan! Greetings from Brasil!
I think with rangefinder button you can identify who's friendly who's enemy. But yeah those tanks makes things more difficult
@@DOLLARplays Didn't know that... I guess It is time to give another try
Dude I've been waiting for you to do a sim and you've already done it. You're just the best! I'd love to see your masterful skills applied in sim more. I need to see more!! 🤘🤘🤘💪💪💪💪✌️✌️❤️❤️❤️
Gotta love 128mm boom stick on 4.3 (Best to use on Maps like with a lot of hills)
Hey dollar another great video my friend! And some good news I finally managed to scrounge up some cash to finally be able to get your decal! I love how it looks on my heavy tanks such as the maus! Thanks for all you do!
Glad you like it mate, keep angling 💪🏻😎
Sim is the best and my favorite mode. Baby tigor vs m18s ftw. and those pilots were on point bombing you! soo much harder with cockpit view and all the air feedback. loved the vid
Never underestimate how sweaty WT players can be. Probably has a $300 joystick setup just so he can dunk on sim players.
honestly it's pretty fun especially if you been playing enlisted for a while
I busted out laughing a couple times in Target. This is definitely one of my favs. Thanks for the good work man
Instant like for the Suck my Unit reference! My man had me choking on my food!
LoL 2:23 always thought that line was funny now I see it being used Right on Man.
Dollar I really love your content, you make war thunder 10x better. I thanks for awesome content. (Did you angle today?)
"dont move he wil not notice you"
*straight face to face with air brakes and visible bombs*
10:36
Bruh i lost it when that picture came outta nowhere 😂
Dude never get rid of the synth theme you’ve got. Absolutely love it and I need a 1 hour long version of the intro to listen to while I work. Do you mix your own music?
Edit: I found the song lol. “Never or Right Now” for those that want it.
11:54 Boss! You killed a Child!
Well done!
Tried playing sim, and it was honestly quite fun for the first match..
Every match after I got team killed by a German. Gotta love the German mains.
I really like Emil, and didn't expect that you going to małe a video about this, do I had surprise 😁
Thank you
Thanks Dollar needed some real entertainment right now.😉
I'd love to see you play more simulator battles with realistic/custom gun sights. You played custom ones. If you would like to give some more realistic german ones a shot, there are the ones made by RideR2 which I can recommend. Still a blast to watch xD
Followed a wild hare and jumoed into sim last week, its now my favorite mode
I was playing "only" SIM for quite a while, TKs here and there didn't bother but when I got killed by a Tiger 1 WHILE playing a Tiger 1, I knew I had to stop.
Funny how I just remind of that Joker saying "It's gone" in your previous video, and then it appears few seconds after that.
Everywhere you go, there're always CAS that'll chase you ... Anyway excellent video Dollars, keep going
I'm cursed
It's always the same......you play an open-top vehicle -> you get bombed by CAS, you play a heavy tank -> you get bombed by CAS
the opening choke/gag meme is hilarious, never gets old 🤣
also the predator vision is top tier comedy because of how much of an occurrence it seems to be for me lol
@@-Hesco tanks;)
I’d still be running SB if it were as it was before that event tab switch that killed simbattles when compared to what they were. It worked the same as RB from the version I played. Had a few pilots in ground sb, but not anything like we see in Realistic Battles… as pilots were not as easily able to provide real CAS in SB.
taking a break from WT, but i simply love Dollar making WT content.. ofc also Escape from tarkov xD cheers man, keep up the great content !
🤟🏻
your edits are always so visually satisfying and auditory wonders i love your videos
Ah yes Sim battles, where you can get literally bombed immediately from spawn during the start of matches.
I love sim, I'd play it over ground RB any day if it were more popular.
First video I watched from your channel, I love it 😍
Honestly if I want to play ground sim, I play Enlisted, on one of the custom modes, it let's me play as an actual tank with infantry support.
I'd love to play a 100 player battle with 20 tanks, 20 recon trucks, and some planes, then everyone else is infantry.
Or even combine enlisted and war thunder into one game like EvE and Dust514 did, but where the tanks can traverse the whole large map, but infantry can only spawn at objective battlefields.
All planes and tanks have war thunder style handling, and all infantry handles like enlisted.
Possibly taking a page from hell let loose and having each team have a captain that gives orders to the players to try to best position them to win the battle.
Its actualy my favourite gm because of its the most balanced one
Sturer Emil my favorite tank destroyer, the Big Brother of Dicker Max
custom sights for simulator battles? out of the 100 or so games I've played, that might just be the most useful thing to have damn
Hey Dollar, great video as always!! Also I don't know if you've noticed but the outro in the end says Thank you for wahtching instead of watching.
Oh crap. And I used the same text for multiple videos... thanks for letting me know;)
@@DOLLARplays Yeah I should have told you a little bit earlier perhaps 😅. But I just thought you would notice.
Everyone understand that pain when you shoot and be sure that tank will die but nothing happens
Oh yes, Dollar playing my most loved german tank in WT :))))
Good editing, the predator ones cracked me up ^^
ZAMMNN that predator thermal view twist was just lit man
🤟🏻
What a nice team combination u got there brings back fresh good memories
Love from norway 👍😄 when you speak your accent sounds like my lithuanian friend.
3:03 "are u winning stepbro" ... lmao
"Shhh... If you dont move they wont notice you" - 3 bombs land next to him
Those edits!
thank you for you out there making fun Wt !
Match at 4:15 is a great example of why it is highly advised to carry a few HE with you always.
What? Just fucking shoot it through the lower side and get more ammo at captured objectives when you run out lol
Betty: Play Simulator
Everyone: Simulator exists again for a day
long awaited entertainment.... gracis DoLLaR
