What was name from that missile launcher vehicle (lol my english) plsss i need that vehicle
Sorry but I identify as an f22 raptor so I will not be checking that link.
What options did you have enabled to see the extra thrust percentage?
Whyvern doesn't have 20mm @@PerfectedVenus
Zoltan are you from hungary?
I remember when they add submarines on an April fools, and for some reason all the torpedoes became mini nukes in ground battles
IIRC it was because they gave the event torpedoes with very high amounts of explosives. But somehow that got ported outside of the event mode and someone happened to find out about it.
@@laisy961 funny thing is I bet a dev did that on purpose so he could boost himself up alittle before people caught on 😂
@@TNTNT20 based dev
@@laisy961 i remember having a lot of fun with my f6f hellcat and a big ass torpedo
@@TNTNT20 Devs do not have the normal grinding tree. They get access to anything in the game for testing and development purposes
You know what’s currently a stupidly broken feature? The AAA around the mini-bases at lower tiers.
It’s so stupidly accurate and powerful that if you’re not staying far away from them or bombing the base at very high altitude, you get torn to shreds in about 10 seconds flat
Definitely. They absolutely ruin ARB for me, as I used to grind cash using my Premium Thunderbolt MK.1. I get slapped from miles away from them now 😢
For sure
Min map AAA needs to be removed, or do no damage like it used to
Idk why they gave it back damage
@@bornonthebattlefront4883 I personally like the idea of having aaa that can kill you because it adds immersion and risk to flying at low altitudes. But for some reason all aaa crews are Olympic qualified marksmen that are able to instant shot you from 2 miles away.
It also makes base campers who cannot be touched
The fact that you can get pretty much get one tapped if you have a low vitality crew, which pretty much every player will at that BR from 5 km ABOVE it is insane.
To be honest, I'd love to see them develop the bomber aspect in War Thunder. Bring some of those fancy Cold War bombers into the game. A lot of the top tier jets are designed as interceptors, would be nice to have them actually perform as intended.
Yes and no. Most of those cold war bombers were moving away from defensive weapons. So depending on how far they go you could become a sitting duck.
The B-29 had radar specifically so the gunners could shoot accurately, but it’s not modeled in WT so the B-29 just suffers.
@@jesusofbullets I haven’t heard of this. You know where I can look to learn more?
@@tinyzinc7344
Wikipedia is a good place. The radar in question was the AN/APG-15 fire-control radar, but even without it, the B-29 still had devices designed to account for the movement of the bomber, the plane, and the distance. For its time it was remarkably advanced.
@@tinyzinc7344 It should be Google able but the important thing here is had, because the radar could be tracked by rwr but more importantly it could be locked by anti radiation missiles which caused an accidental blue on blue situation I believe
You can blame the JU288 for making the non-stop respawns for bases because they used to end matches within minutes even before fighters got into the air.
We really gotta stop blaming the planes or the people that play them. It's not the JU288's fault, it's Gaijin's fault for making game modes and planes that are easily cheesed. It may be difficult to balance, but it's still their job to do it in such a way that doesn't ruin the game over one plane.
@@Foxtrot451xX it's the players fault to take the premium bait gaijin set off. And gaijin fault for endorsing abuses like that.
@@tigerbesteverything nope, not my fault the JU-288 is so easy to use and can grind you to german jets in no time. I won't waste my time with props because I have to waste enough time to grind german rank 5 jets that suck ass
@@tigerbesteverything no, it's 100% on gajin
@@fuckinantipope5511agreed, Ju288 is a smooth brained booster eater, but it quite literally helped me grind to Germany tier 6/7 in about 2 weeks. it’s gaijin’s fault for adding it though, especially back when there was no limit for the no of bombers on a team
8:00 you can still bomb the airfield on some maps, and low tier bombers like the F.222.2, while not capable of soloing 3 bases and the airfield like they used to be, are still a viable strategy
That's what I was gonna say
You can still speed run the match with some of the heavier bombers of the BR.
(E.g. 2 F.222s and 2 hampdens in a downtier)
The afterburner can actually be adjusted anywhere between 101 to 110% and can give really solid control over thrust and especially fuel consumption
I use it all the time and it's so nice
3:22 that ad plug was pretty damn smooth ngl
I think the final nail for bombing bases and the AF to end the game was the release of the F-4 phantom, everyone would just spawn in, load a full set of bombs, and end the game in about a minute
The jet afterburner trick works on some prop planes, too! It keeps you from overheating from full on WEP instead.
Always a glorious day when zoltan uploads
Also, in air rb as of maybe a few months back at least, maps with only 3 bases don't respawn, and once all 3 bases are destroyed you can bomb the airfield. The 4 base maps infinitely respawn though
Not only do 4 base maps infinitely respawn, any time you pick a bomber they infinitely pick only 4 base maps.
@@ahappypcuser3344 didn't happen to me when i was playing bombers a lot a while back so idk lol
Hot take: I actually somewhat like the fact the bases respawn the reason being that my internet is terrible so I'm basically always the last one to spawn meaning that I can't even get to a base and destroy it if they are already gone and the only thing left is to attack the air field but by that point it's basically meaningless because either your entire team of bombers is dead so you can't really do anything to the airfield to destroy it and because you can't destroy it you don't really even get any rewards for it. But with how they constantly respond now even those bombers that are lagging behind they still have a chance to get som SL and Rp.
That’s a good reason tbh, hopefully you can get some better internet soon!
I feel the same sometimes
Half the time I die because my internet craps out mid match and go into an uncontrollable nosedive
With lots of experience playing the Ju-288c, I much prefer the maps with infinitely respawning bases. They provide much more points.
Well, they used to...
With the snail it’s only suffering allowed
Only pain is allowed
Oh hi Jack
7:40 still remember
Tu-4, 4 per team
I planned to use the QN strategy with spikes in squadron battles to just kill the enemy SPAA. We will see how it goes.
Why? SPAA is the only thing preventing air players from ruining ground rb completely
squdron battles is about playing the most meta things and not about fun@@marlo8850
you should do a video where you talk about every update
Zoltan, have you seen the weird trench at the north border of the italian low tier air test flight map, it is a full on mariana trench on land. Though you may find that interesting. Thanks for the great vids, can't wait for the next one
Oh interesting no I’ve not seen that
Whats the UI mod you used for the afterburner section?
Great video btw!
The J5N1 is one of the interceptors that gets an air spawn and its quite satisfying to be able to smack the enemy bombers before the fighters even arrive or gain a 1000 - 2000 meter advantage
Remember for a short time around when the F4 phantom was first added you can go as full team taking bombs to rush the bases and airfield, winning in a few minutes
That change about the bombers is honestly what was requested for a VERY LONG TIME.
There was a time it was a constant spam of Yer-2 bombers who would END match in a matter of mere minutes
The B7A2 Homare 23 is my favorite example of aircraft that can abuse the airspawn and I'm surprised you didn't mention it. It can literally abuse airspawn more, because it has a bomber spawn, yet can also act like a decent fighter. It climbs pretty fine without bombs, it turns like crazy and has a good amount of horsepower. Literally if a B7A2 holds the altitude, it can easily rampage around if not taken care of.
Now that you showed the carpathians fall through the floor glitch they're gonna block off even more of the map I bet. It's my favorite map because of all the flank routes and secret areas for SPAA to hide :(
My favorite feature was during the sturmtiger event where you had to stop waves of vechiles with sturmtiger and pack guns if you rammed a Sherman you could actually make it spin like a helicopter for a period of time
You could do it in normal PvE as well... l think you can still do it, but i dunno
I love that you can reload Torpedoes in Naval EC when its Realistic and firing too. Just get the Front or Back of your Ship 1m into the Harbor so the Launchers are outside of the Torpedonets. Works really good with 15-20km Torps . You can use Planes up to 7.0 there too. My Record with the B-29 was around 160 Tons of Basedamage 😁
Great video man, keep it up!
you should be ashamed of that ad segway xD that was amazing man, love your stuff
6:41, similiarily, Whirlwind P.9 and the regular tech tree version, both at 3.7, get an airspawn, climbrate comparable to XP50, which itself is 4.0 i believe, and has 4x 20mm guns centrally mounted, so it shreds everything. about a month ago i played 4 air RB battles with it and has 15 kills..
I remember when that thing came out, singe handedly ruining that br at the time I just happened to be grinding it. You'd see three in space all winning the game
I remembered one time that attackers from rank VI and up had air spawn and it’s broken. It made almost every attacking jet op. As a Su 7 BMK pilot from the day the jet was released, i used this to bomb or take down fighters. Harriers were terrifying back then. Players used this to get quick victories. Gaijin removed air spawn form high ranks. Now, Powercreep just ruins 8.3-10.3 BR because an Aim 9L missile was coming to yeet your ass right off and no countermeasures to save you. The introduction of the A-10 at 9.7 was the beginning of powercreep (Everyone thought it was bad, but it was better than people thought).
So the QN506 can basically do what its actually supposed to be able to do IRL but on accident. The landing pad on it is for an actual drone that's supposedly able to lock targets and fire the missiles without even exposing a little bit of the tank
I remember feeling so accomplished and satisfied the couple of times I managed to destroy the enemy airfield in air RB
As someone who has put almost 24 hours into the T-2 recently, if you know not to fly asleep at the wheel and have pitch up as a keybind, it is totally possible to survive against most AAM you’ll find at its BR, and even at a full up tier
Oh god, the wyvern and B5 are so annoying to play against because they fly like fighters but get an airspawn
that has to be the cleanest transision to the ad i have ever seen
Love the way you make sponser ship
Oh man I remember these days and there long gone and I loved the T2 and the R2Y2 a bomber with crap for bombs and never mind it is not even a actual produced or prototype plane and surprised they haven't taken it out yet like they said they were going to.
Gotta love the T-2 had a radar lead indicator and minimal ground clutter, dunking on other jets like no tomorrow
The most fun i have with it now is shooting down enemy missiles with my own missiles
Though thats more out of neccesity than anything else, given the fact that it has no flares 🥺
What i want to know is how you got the afterburner and effective fuel overlay, is that just in editing?
Honestly I'm surprised you didn't mention the absolutely ridiculous state of the R3 T20 when it was implemented, but besides that I'm glad you brought back all these memories! (some unpleasant cough cough puma cough cough)
6:39
I can see what you did there lmao you put a Wyvern on a Wyvern
2:15 you can actually do that also with ur controller’s joystick by flicking it really fast. But you cant choose the stage of ur af as precise
You remind me a Ton of "Slippy Slides", the cadence and all that. You got a great voice for making vids like this!
You can scout the armored train on Flanders and it will show in the Minimap :O
damn that fire and forgor missile thing with drones is actually op
Still the most op method of getting huge adventage was setting your game to lowest possible options. Bushes from far away were gone, almost whole maps just plain terrain and you see tanks moving there. Easy as hell
i especially love when in arcade battles my tiger 2 gets bombed by an A-10 because oh i guess they were made at the same time and it was common for tigers to face warthogs
Well I know for sure that on some maps you can still destroy the airfield. Essen, Sicily, Pacific Hidden Base, one version of Mozdok that I forget the name of, Fjords (I think), Guiana Highlands, Naro-Fominsk, and Greenridge.
Loved the Bombing part of the game, have researched loads of planes with bombers and found it a lot more relaxing to play...
The whole “spawn in the sky due to categorization” is kinda busted when using mid tier Germany because many planes are categorized as strike aircraft even though the description barely fits
"Named by someone who fell asleep at the computer and forehead slammed their head into the keyboard" *The PakPuma* 🤣🤣🤣
Rocket based vehicles got unlimited ammo in AB
It makes for some super fun gameplay imo, you can just full auto in the packs of clueless enemies
Well, when Italy finally have ground tech tree R3 T20 once sit in BR 3.3 and just like Pak Puma when released, it's shred anyone especially when downtiered
I still remember my first match with it. Shredded two planes like 5 seconds in!
Okay guiding your own missile with your own uav sounds really badass. Like, I wouldn't even be mad if I died to that
Yay forget to metion that T-2 when it was introduced it came with an early arcade-style version of radar-assisted ballistic computer that tell you the gun lead when locking onto an enemy. This feature is quickly getting rid of.
Cleanest sponsor transition I’ve seen
Nice editing!!
Loved the rhyme for the ad
That sponsor transition was clean
3:20 that was smooth
Loved the sponsor intro ngl
2:43 How do you get that overlay? Specially the specific fuel consumption time would be VERY USEFUL to me.
Regarding bombing I think the bases and auxiliary airfield should be bombable from the start. Then at low tier attackers can bomb respawning bases while heavies can deal with a repairing airfield. At top tier runway denial munitions would be a fun addition (like on the tornado) so am auxiliary airfield can be put out of action/reduced efficiency with normal respawning bases aswell
At one point after the t2 was first added I remember having a sub 2 minute game on wake island shredding all of the f100s like it was nothing
ok thanks now im going to head back grinding but with these tricks
I use my scrollwheel as the aircraft throttle and sometimes I would do precise scrolls and it will show 101%. Didn't know this was what it was
Hey, how do I make that information of the throttle percentage appear, like you have it? (2:49)
Thanks
I love these series
just like the t-2, The MBT-70 and KPZ-70, were the first true cold war era mbt tanks added to the game. it got to a point where, they faced them selves and every single map had to be rebalanced and scaled for the mobility of the mtb-70/kpz. tank acceleration was lower across the board back then, so it took a minute or two to get where the action was. Not for the MBT-70. so everybody in there top tier ww2 tanks got slammed when they had to face discarding sabots, heatfs, and tanks driving to the opposite side of the map within 1 min of the game starting. there wasnt enough cold war era tanks at the time to saturate top tier. its also the reason they made bigger maps in the future and slowly took all the vanilla maps out of high tier game play. i remember getting dumped by these things in my tiger 2.
On the note of the bombing airfields to end the game. back in the early stages of ground RB, the same mechanic was in there. with enough players to help you, or enough time to do it youself, you could end a ground rb match by destroying thier airfield spawn. not to many players caught attention to this. so you didnt have to worry about players shooting you down as much as they do in air RB.
How did you have that effective flight time fuel and thrust overlay? Can't seem to find any info about it
3:12 did he just make a very smooth rhyme for unexpected sponsor????
Okay that drone lock on missile thing is kinda genius 🤯
How do you show the trust weight on planes like how you do at 3:01?
btw i love your videos plz don't stop posting ❤
Damn that QN trick
5:30 how is that F-4E carrying the 30mm gatling gun gunpods?
Merry Christmas, lad :)
can you tell me where you got the second stat overlay from i would like to add that to my game.
Bro what was that song in his intro, that hit differently 😂
2:54 how did you get that interface? i´d like tu use that
Dude that AION online rhyme came around 4 edges and hit me directly in the FACE!
how did you get in that pleace in red desert?, i need to kow i cen't find the way to get up there
I have been a bomber main since I started I have been playing for 5 years and still love to play my b17s and b29s. And slowly I watched almost all maps with bombable bases disappear I hate it now and it genuinely makes me sad because I had 2 relatives flying b17s during the war but I can’t live that on if I don’t want to play bombers if the the base bombing sucks. Gaijin please fix , please
Another W from Zultan

7:56 Mini Base respawn yes
between 4 or 5 min after 1 is destroyed...
how can you activate that overlay for planes?
I know it works in the browser when you open the tactical map, but i want it ingame....
Theres also Fw190 that abusing attacker spawn
You good sir may touch my goat for these tips!
Bombing the Airfield was fun but also kinda bullshit because the F222 (The nearly reserve french bomber) has a big enough bomb load that 4 of them were able to end the game, at a low enough BR that not only could most planes never climb high enough to touch you, but you faced such low level players that they could never counter it
How do you activate that thrust reading on the top left at 03:01?
Early war thunder was so good the height of weapons was cannons or 4 50’s 😂
Well the T-2 is a lot more capable now with the AIM-9Js, and with rockets as mock flares.... it's pretty damn good
The rockets dont seem to want to act like flares from my experience, and the t2 still doesnt have its old radar lead indicator, so i wouldnt say its better than before (especially with all aspect missiles that its fighting)
How do I enable those extra states concerning thrust? Or is that a mod?
Funny thing is the QN505 is supposed to be able to get a use a drone to also lock the weapons. Gaijin just refuses to add the rotor drone and the unique feature of the QN506.
Considering the way Gaijin models drones they are completely invincible to anything without a proximity fuse, this is a good thing. QNs would just be camping on the nearest cap spamming missiles at everything on the map and if you aren't one of the luck few countries to have a usable source of HE-VT there is nothing you could do about it.
Can you add this to another useless facts about war thunder ZoltanSultan
If you drive down the main road on the top right of the map on fulda there is a crack in the textures and you can fall through the map
And in my R3 i went in it bounced a few times in the water and got shot right back up into the map and phased through the floor near the enemy spawn
(In a custom)
8:00
Ngl I’m torn on the base change
Likes:
Allows for a more effective grind (especially for top tier) that rewards players who have planes poor fighters that can’t compete with the meta builds
Dislikes:
Takes a lot of the strategy/realism/team-play of the rb mode away, I used to have a buddy/buddies either be the bomber or escort me while I was a bomber and they got free kills while we were able to pick up really consistent wins
It’s a contest of
Bomber grinding vs strategy but I can see why they changed it
Honestly, bombers nowadays are mostly grind planes
Air RB has this problem, bombers in matches depending on what Gaijin decides are either useless and wasted team slots or whatever the enemy team ends up doing during the match doesn't matter.
Tickets on most matches are a useless mechanic because what ends up happening is that one team kills all the other team players and that's it.
But sometimes a lone player or two decide they don't want to die or leave, so they stay at a safe spot for them. This is the true purpose of tickets, shitty ground vehicles you can kill with whatever gun you have on your plane so you can bleed the enemy tickets until they reach 0 or gets you a win when the match is over
But the thing is, there isn't always that option because whatever is in the ground might be too tough for your guns and then you're screwed, because if the people doing this are bombers, they destroyed your bases and now you're in a ticket disadvantage
There used to be a mechanic which consisted on a lot of small enemy vehicles spawning in the same place somewhere near the enemy airfield, so you could basically go and kill them to end the match. But at the same time, you could grab a bomber, go really high, wait a ton of time, idk how long it used to take, but around 20-30 min, then bomb the vehicles and win the match, so that wasn't a solution either
The main problem is, planes should just fight to the death and that's it, but you just can't force that. iirc now airfield protections are disabled when only one plane is left, and the general area of the last plane is revealed in the map
It's just a troublesome matter that hasn't an easy solution, but at least in top tier that is less likely due to missiles and the limitations of fuel consumption on afterburner
I deviated from the original topic, but yeah, bombers should be shit in this game, that's always better than them being op
3:13 straight bars.
7:51 To my knowledge, bases don't infinitely respawn anymore or get the respawn timer set so high that it doesn't matter regardless.
Snail did that when the F-111 was added. the respawn timer went from like 60 seconds to 5 minutes. Might even be higher
I remember the R2Y2 golden age. Nobody actually used it as a bomber but new players who needed to upgrade it.
Why would anyone use it as a bomber? It has one 800Kg bomb at best and no bomb sight. It would make more sense as a ground attack aircraft than a bomber, though I guess just calling it a fighter works too.
7:22 oh the good old days
