Only if you play the full simulation gamemode. The other gamemodes give the enemies markers as soon as you have line of sight with them, even if they are behind bushes or trees. Camo or hiding is completely useless. WoT's spotting system is better than the shit they have going on in Arcade and Realistic battles. Full simulation gamemode is fun in terms of having to use your eyes to spot enemies but it sucks because you have no third person camera.

You seem to earn lions like crazy in CBT... Ah and why are the beta keys always vanished, when I try to find one?

the spotting system isnt final yet though, devs said they will also make bushes and trees reduce the spotting.

And that's where they are gonna fuck up imho.

They decided a way, they should keep on it. Either it's WoT spotting, or it's all visible. Making a mix of them will be shit.

How are they going to avoid people making wallhacks? The tanks are always visible, your client is getting the enemy locations all the time. That's super easy to hack and wallhacks are gamebreaking, especially in a game that is 90% about positioning.

they will still be visible, just not get a marker if there is bushes in front and stuff like that, basically there will be fewer markers on enemies AFAIK.

just played my first rounds as a full retard, but real fun imo.
looking forward to higher tier tanks, but stug3 was kickass so far

This is one point that really bothers me with WT, I would hate to see enemy tanks looking like this. Imo they should make a setting where you can disable custom tank designs for your client.

It just adds to the trollfactor. T-50 is the ultimate trolltank.

can you rly play light tanks effectively in WT? the game seems so slow in youtube vids

You can, because it takes forever to turn your tank/turret around if something is behind you.

This video is from today. In a full Simulation battle

lol wtf

Ermagerd, T-50, my favorite trolling machine, is back

I need to get access to them tanks !
I tried the planes this weekend: arcade/realistic battles + mouse & keyboard (tier 1 - all I have) => feels like WOT in low tiers (sealclubbing!).
It's worlds apart from the arcade + joystick which continues to be a pain in the ass.

P.S: Did anyone say Russian biased game?
My Laggs; Migs and I16 rule!

chaika ftw

I was wondering... do we have any IDEAL wing/clan whatever is called in WarThunder?

No don't think we have, i have no idea how to set one up either.

I think you can do this ingame when you press the button "found squadron" I think it will cost you 2k gulden igels. Well didn't check it in the new versions, but it was there in older versions. Man I really need to grind those russian fighters. They will so gonna be OP in the next patch. Did some of you check the tiering changes for russian fighters? It's ridiculous... totally needz I-185 for triple kennon pew pew.

New patch today, cool stuffs.

I am downloading Bowsy, but it's 4gb, and very low download speed -.-

Anyway, tanks testers will be able to join events with tanks on the main server now

Stupid servers are far worse than WoT ones for downloading, or maybe it's just their torrent like launcher being shitty.

I am uploading faster than i am downloading. They call it a torrent, but it feels more like a p2p system -.-

Either way i downloaded 1 gb in hours, 3 more to go
