Gaijin literally nerfed the shit out of repaircosts for ASB because of twats that do this. I'd gighly recommend you do not do this because sim battles you create for this purpose can get reported and looked at. Gaijin can literally ban your ass if they find you doing it because it's exploiting the game. Want more info? Look it up on youtube. There's a pretty big war thunder youtuber that did a video on this.
For people finding this video today: It's been nerfed it a bunch so it's not quite as OP. Bases are better targets than airfields now and you only get half the rewards if you don't land. So you actually have to play the games. If you suck too much to do this then either git gud or find another method. If you dedicate too it it's still not as OP as before but it's great RP for pretty braindead gameplay. Pull up some videos, sit in third person on your bomber, and just fly to bases, bomb, alnd, repeat. The Ju288 and HE177 are beasts for this because you'll usually pick up a few plane kills too with those nasty 20mms.
Exact opposite for bomber mains… 1. Climb 2. Fly to enemy base 3. Use gunners to blast incoming fighter 2000X 4.Die in one shot when they blow your wing or tail off instantly.
You son of a bitch! You were right! :D It does work! My friend and I scored some big numbers following your advice. Now... got anything for ground forces? ;D
One thing I would really recommend is for getting boosters, the the Air and ground assault arcade battles as they give you a booster regardless of the outcome of the battle and so it will give you decent boosters, sometimes very high in percentage, and then that further helps the process
Yeah if you enjoy wasting 30 minutes just to get no rewards because you didn’t win. Too many people don’t know how to play assault air arcade, they just chase the bombers nonstop even after they drop bombs, leading to falling behind on the next wave and the next, also 3-4 people going for ground when only 1 is needed. Until there are 3 waves and a wave of ground targets and there is NOTHING you can do.
I love wt. I hate having to grind so much for any tanks. I mean ik how to play tanks for the most part. but it takes SOOOOO damn long for me to get anything. even getting a good ammount of kills it's such a grind. you need to put next too 35+ to get the next tank past tier 3
unfortunately bombers did get a big nerf so vid is a little outdated now to anyone in 2022 unless they rebuff them in the future past this time edit: you have to return to the airfield to recieve full lions and xp, it is half from hitting bombs, other half is given when you get back, if you get shotdown I think it gives like partial of full but not fully certin.

I literally had to turn it off because I ended up bankrupt and unable to purchase or train any crew of tier 3 planes. But even then the absolutely retarded repair times are more frustrating than the costs. Having to wait 3-4+ hours, some even take literal DAYS to repair at higher tiers. It’s so fucking stupid. Just a way to force you to pay them money for their in-game currency. Scumbags. Yeah, make it so I’m unable to play your game, that’s really gonna make me wanna give money.
...if you get shot down? IF?. I mean I know I'm such a major threat it's absolutely imperative that I be taken down immediately; quite often being one of a couple, if not the only bomber!# Pick on the big, slow guy why don't you!! >XD
1. The problem is that the B-29 atm costs 74k SL to repair. If you dont have a prem account you will most likely loos SL, especially if there is a semi good player that will just eat you alive making you pay 74k SL again. 2.

Another good way that isnt that risky is going to Ground strike tank in tank RB with an premium aircraft like the Do 335 or He 219, if you do this you will most likely get around 150+ SL per battle with a prem account, and even without you get a good ammount up to 100k SL
1: that's why I said it depends. If you say have 12 million silver lions and just need research then you can bail out of the plane but if you need silver Lions than you need to try to keep the plane alive or use a different bomber 2: that's what I thought but you can see at the end of that game that was over an hour long I only made $400,000 silver lions but when the game finished the 400% booster activated and increased it to over a million
If you activate a booster (for example like a 400% one) and go into battle every 30 minutes you spend in the battle is another booster so if the battle if and hour and 30 minutes long then you get 3*400% booster. It even says this on the boosters ig.
Yeet_Man _69 no, it won't give you 3 times the rewards, it will just take off another battle off of a for example 10% booster for 20 battles if the match is longer than one hour
I know I’m a bit late but I still have a few questions: *Is this method viable for any BR of sim Aircraft? *Can I create a battle with just me against all AI and still get similar rewards?
1: works on any br but the rp & lions you get in this method are based on the number of bomb tons you drop. similar to with fighters it would be amount of planes you shoot down no, the modes have to have a minimum of 4 players or it wont start. but you get the same amount of xp and lions if you shoot down a player or ai :)
If you play the tu-4 you can get like 70+ t of tnt and with a booster you can get like 100k rp and 1mil+ sl, also you shouldn’t be going into gunner view bc in sim players get really close and your Gunners will laser them down on their own
An important note: Gaijin recently made a change which halves your reward for bombing airbases in the air and gives the other half only once you land! Also make sure to remember that every 30 minutes in a game counts as 1 battle for boosters, a 1 game booster therefore will only apply to the first 30 minutes, a 5 game booster to 2,5 hours and so forth
@@dustinl796 Agreed, boosters are better and worse in WT than in WoT - WoT absolutely chucks them at you (I've got several hundred) which don't expire unless you use them. They do seem more effective in WT but with so many restrictions. And what's this wager crap?
Great grind method! Here is mine if you don’t have a good bomber or just starting a new country tech tree. (I came up with this method because I wanted to start the Germany Tech Tree and get all the Bf-109’s) Step 1. Call a friend who plays war thunder but isn’t that great at dogfighting. Step 2. Make a 1v1 battle, it can be any map, any game mode, any setting. (Simulator mode is recommended) Step 3. Kill them as many times as possible. You should probably let them win a couple of times just so they don’t ragequit. Step 4. Enjoy the reward. Edit: I never actually used this before. I didn’t have my laptop at the time and was watching inside a car. Earlier I was trying to start the Germany Tech Tree and get the first 109 fighter, but sadly- I kept constantly getting killed by Japanese or Russian planes in Arcade, so I decided to watch this. Then I came up with my own method after. If you could give me some feedback on this method that would be great.
@@UltravisionaryTAB what about do the same method with another device like a laptop and do the same this plus, there wont be any if not, no evidence so it will be near impossible to get banned
I am interested but 2 quick questions 1. How can i start a 1v1 so that I can gain money The only way I think is through custom and I don’t get any rewards like that 2. Does the friend still have to pay repair cost Thanks in advance comrades
i didn't use this tactic but i started grinding italian ground forces and im already at 7.3 after 5 days of RB battles and a little bit of premium time :)
I didn't know that, if that's the case with as much as I get currently I can't wait until I get both premium, and a 300% silver lion booster on top of bombing in simulator battles and Landing 😂
Look for a battle ongion and see what the br is. It goes a max of 1 up and down so a b29 is 7.0, in the battle it will allow 6.7-7.7 so i pick the lowest, middle and highest br i can. Sometimes the game for some reason allows you to get the middle and lower plane 😁
you said "without any delay" then explained silver lions and other stuff taking more time to delay lol. not mad. i just like pointing it out. ty for vidya fam
Pretty sure Gaijin tried to remove this tactic by decreasing the amount of RP and SL that you got for bombing bases in sim. However, rockets still work, so attackers have now become more viable.
@@user-lu2yk8iz4o If the bomber that you are using has a low repair cost yes, but it is much more profitable to use an attacker and go for the airfields with rockets. The only problem is the AAA shooting you down at that point.
What is the best way to bomb the airfield? Is it best to bomb the runway or is it best to take out the buildings. If you could let me know, thatd be great! Thank you
so i have to grind for a bomber because i didnt do any of the bomber tech tree and then i have to learn how to play sim mode and also play like 2 games per day because sim battles last 2 hours as you said. doesnt seem that easy for a beginner (Tier III)
For all the German Tech Tree grinders get yourself the captured P-47 and destroy Artilleriy and such grind to the Do 217 M-1 it carries 4000kg of payload and has a much better climbing rate than the previous Do 217. If you're cool like I am get a Talisman for the Do 217 M-1 and Bomb Airfields and such. My best round i had with those two Aircraft i had a couple Tail gunner kills and used the P-47 a bit bombed the Airstrip and such. Plus i had a booster of a hundred percent and of course Premium i got 220.000XP and i I don't know how much cash. But yeah I skipped a lot of Aircraft this way.
they already did nerf bombers in sim. now its useless. there is still method to grind 1m per 2 hours but i'm not gonna share it, cause if too many people will use it, they nerf it too.
not that i can tell. I played a match for 2 hours today. Did 2.8 tonnes of bombing and only got 5000RP to show for it, Which i can do in a good match in arcade. Plus i have premium
goldgreatdane1 It does work, however I would recommend playing at about 3 tier in sim. When bombing airfields you need to remember you have to be above 3500m to not die and bomb each module (the green squares). I recommend bombing the Tents as they are the module that will repair everything unless destroyed. Did this yesterday for about 45m and earned 17k RP and about 100K SL. However I did die twice of my three runs, meaning I lost about 50% of my SL and RP. If you manage to not die on each run you can make some good cash.
Guys this works, I ahd 7 planes unlocked but no lions due to repairs and I was able to dedicate a whole day to just this simulator technique and get 800,000 lions and 14,000 rp
If you haven't already, watch plenty of videos on the basics and controls and what keybindings will help you. I started playing about a month ago and had a rough start as well. But changing keybindings and understanding offensive/defensive flying helped a lot
I know this sounds kinda stupid but in normal battles I was getting like 600-1000 rp and just wasn’t getting as much as I was hoping for and what others are getting. Some ppl that are fairly new like me might not know but if you just capture zones and get at least 1 or 2 kills and win the match you will get a shit tone of rip and sl
I would love to have in this game a game mod where you have the realistic flying mechanics with the length of simulator battles. That would be sooo cool
after i did this video warthunder slightly debuffed bombers, ignore the payload size but the amount of bombs, for some reason more hits give more points but also its only good to do with a major lion or rp bonus now
@@dustinl796 Thanks. It seems they also nerfed the strategic bombers' respawning rate. last time I tried to respawn in a bomber I had to wait 9 minutes. They increased the amount of SP required to fly a strategic bomber. You now need 240 instead of 200 :(

@@DeathMonkey0505 yes mate. It's those rank numbers at the beginning of the list when you select a match. You have to chose a game with a matched battle rank to your chosen a/c type.
i found a way to make this even better i just made a lobbay and nobody joined but it still let me play, so there is no threat of dying i can just grind for 3 hours
@dustin.. i get blown almost everytime with no kills every tank game i play (I'm new to tanks).. i have the panzer 3f (2.0 br).. can u make a tips video or something like that... basically how to not get fuvked almost immediately in rb..(I'm good at planes tho).. thanks
Few tips would be play slowly, dont go into the open, look around a lot, dont cross corners without looking left or right and watch your team mates, try to dont stick too close but dont be alone somewhere because than you will get overrun, also dont push too much in front if there is no friendly that can help you
First of all if you are playing early german tanks around that br you should be aware they have bad armour mostly so you should learn to angle yourself for better protection, if you dont understsnd what I mean look it up or go into the armour protection tab and turn the tank around and see how its potential armour thickness increases. Next you should try to always have a team mate on your side to watch over you and pay constant attention to the map. If you want to go to cap a point then try not to over extend or go head on with the enemy and dont push unless you have some friendly tanks with you. Position yourself so you can watch an area where enemy tanks are likely to appear but be ready to reverse or get to cover. Try not to expose yourself in more then one angle at a time and dont try to engage people in long sightlines. Also dont forget to press b and use your binoculars especially if you are in realistic mode because they will help you a lot as well as the rangefinder which you can activate in the settings. Another really useful tip is to go into the enemy tank tech trees and find the tanks you go up against and look at their armour to see where the weak spots are and the best places to attack them. Try not to carry too much ammunition on you (I usually carry 32 shells max in every tank) you should take 24 heat (high explosive anti tank) shells and then some high explosive shells for shooting open topped vehicles or AA or SPAA where crew members are exposed and some apcr (armour piercing crowned rounds) for shooting targets with tough armour. With this method I almost never get my tank destroyed due to an ammunition fire. Also dont forget to discharge your machine gun to gauge distance as a last resort and alert your allies to where the target is. When researching modifications you want to get parts and fire prevention equipment first then focus on the trees around the engine and transmission before things like add on armour and artillery support.
They’ve nerfed SB now apparently, you only get half when you bomb the objective, and then the other half when you land. I think you get less RP and SL too
Bruh when you said you got 1 mill lions I’m about an hour my mouth dropped, I’ve been playing since 2015 and I’m only at rank 3 for the planes, rank 1 everything else
I mean, the games purpose is to be a grind. They want you to get tired and fed up so that you'll buy premium and special vehicles so they want to make you have to play as long as possible
I didn't know that but still, with that being said since you get a ton of extra experience just buy playing this mode with or without boosters it's still 30 minutes then of 200% XP inside of a game mode that grants 200% already for the same task you would do in realistic or arcade :-)
I thought it was every 30 minutes spent in a single battle counts as an additional battle, meaning that 2 hour battle will have the booster the whole time, but will count as 4 missions
I can't play simulator battles because the y axis isn't assigned to any button and I don't know which one I should assign it to could some one tell me please what to do?
You have to check their new anti cheat system on launcher, it's necessary for gamemodes without markers. Sim always here, pls come i love free meat for my fighters
yes and no, its less lions you get but as long as you land on your base it works still, you get 50% lions on the attack and 50% on rearming now so if you make it and dont j out? yes :)
If I press the V button a couple of times the only thing that's happens is that my camera view changes. There is no way the gunners already rotate and aim enemy planes unless they are 400m away.
June 14, 2021 - This video is still very relevant. Simulator Battles are just too overpowered when researching vehicles. I don't use bombers too often in Air SB, because Sweden lacks a good bomber (Or I'm just too stupid to control one.) In about two weeks of playing Air SB intermittently, I have reached Tier IV with almost all the fighters spaded.
Look dude I don't know what the fuck is goin on, but it won't let me take off, It keeps jamming my plane to the left and forcing me to crash, and now I lost 2 thousand silver lions. I say you fucking owe me some silver lions dude. Cuz you just made me lose over two thousand of them with this bullshit. Google is no help either to why the fuck my controls don't work. You tell me, you fix it, then you GET ME MY SHIT BACK.

Is it still good?
@@hawker4014 no, the next best way to grind stuff in sim is getting a plane with a buttload of rockets and destroy bases on repeat and DONT DIE.
@@bigdawg2246 Im pretty sure that this strategy can get you banned.
@@UltravisionaryTAB how so?
Doesn't work in 2023 anymore.
Can't earn anything in custom battles anymore
Damn fr. Fuckin gaijin, they just don’t want people actually enjoying their games, they just want us grinding so we play longer.
Hi, check out my guide for SL, different approach.
I know I’m a bit late but I still have a few questions:
*Is this method viable for any BR of sim Aircraft?
*Can I create a battle with just me against all AI and still get similar rewards?
1: works on any br but the rp & lions you get in this method are based on the number of bomb tons you drop. similar to with fighters it would be amount of planes you shoot down
no, the modes have to have a minimum of 4 players or it wont start. but you get the same amount of xp and lions if you shoot down a player or ai :)
Dustinl796 Videos
Ok thank you, this’ll help heaps.
Dustinl796 Videos very helpful bro. I always grind with my shitty fighter.
Yaaay now I don't need to worry about it ty
Dustinl796 Videos can I still get over 100k xp in one game? And if so how many points would I need in game to reach that mark?
If you play the tu-4 you can get like 70+ t of tnt and with a booster you can get like 100k rp and 1mil+ sl, also you shouldn’t be going into gunner view bc in sim players get really close and your Gunners will laser them down on their own
my gohd.... for gunners tho in jets, people come at bombers normally from the sides where gunners have issues hitting them in my experience.
@@dustinl796 depends of the bomber, really
Hi, what is the tu-4? I am a new player. And what should I do to get this much rp and credits? Thanks in advance
@@bokker9348it is the Russian version of the B-29
An important note: Gaijin recently made a change which halves your reward for bombing airbases in the air and gives the other half only once you land!
Also make sure to remember that every 30 minutes in a game counts as 1 battle for boosters, a 1 game booster therefore will only apply to the first 30 minutes, a 5 game booster to 2,5 hours and so forth
dangit, gajin always countering ways to get good ammounts of xp without paying them -_-
@@dustinl796 Agreed, boosters are better and worse in WT than in WoT - WoT absolutely chucks them at you (I've got several hundred) which don't expire unless you use them. They do seem more effective in WT but with so many restrictions. And what's this wager crap?
Boosters last at differing rates than what was suggested in the video. Example: 300% for one battle (RB), or for 30 minutes spent in battle (SB).
How can I tell if a server is first person only? Every time I join one I’m stuck in first person and it’s terrible
It's always 1st person, because it's Simulator
For as long as I’ve played War Thunder, I have only played Sim a handful of times with no success
Odd
Man, I wish there was a grinding method like this for tanks. Everything is just about planes apparently.
pve
@@RoyaltyFreeOnlineAnimeMusic Jesus Christ no!
Planes are more fun
@@peytonthomas2102 tanks and helis are more fun !!!
it can help you get some crew skills at least which can be used on the tanks
what if i cant find enough people to start the sim? is there a work-around?
There's not really a workaround oh, you just have to wait or just keep rehosting until more people join
Hi
i think this method has been nerfed recently but if you can i think you could play with your friends and you both get xp
Ah thanks for this! I have 3 bomber planes since I'm more focused on objectives (and getting shot down) in all game modes!
Great grind method! Here is mine if you don’t have a good bomber or just starting a new country tech tree. (I came up with this method because I wanted to start the Germany Tech Tree and get all the Bf-109’s)
Step 1. Call a friend who plays war thunder but isn’t that great at dogfighting.
Step 2. Make a 1v1 battle, it can be any map, any game mode, any setting. (Simulator mode is recommended)
Step 3. Kill them as many times as possible. You should probably let them win a couple of times just so they don’t ragequit.
Step 4. Enjoy the reward.
Edit: I never actually used this before. I didn’t have my laptop at the time and was watching inside a car. Earlier I was trying to start the Germany Tech Tree and get the first 109 fighter, but sadly- I kept constantly getting killed by Japanese or Russian planes in Arcade, so I decided to watch this. Then I came up with my own method after. If you could give me some feedback on this method that would be great.
That seems like being a terrible friend comrade, however it is legit and cant get you banned unlike the one shown in the video
@@UltravisionaryTAB what about do the same method with another device like a laptop and do the same this plus, there wont be any if not, no evidence so it will be near impossible to get banned
I am interested but 2 quick questions
1. How can i start a 1v1 so that I can gain money
The only way I think is through custom and I don’t get any rewards like that
2. Does the friend still have to pay repair cost
Thanks in advance comrades
I don’t have any friends that like or play wt lol
Step 1: Get JU-288
Step 2: get the entire German tech tree along with 1 million lions
I’m using Germany but I can play sim because the plane keeps turning on it s own it’s really annoying
i didn't use this tactic but i started grinding italian ground forces and im already at 7.3 after 5 days of RB battles and a little bit of premium time :)
What should I do if no one joins my lobby?
For some reason on Sim battles my bomber does not stay still it just go's to the left on its own
That's the wind, it's normal and you have to compensate
Aren't they getting rid of the "J"ing out technique? Like something else will happen if you do it
Maybe? To be honest I'm not entirely sure
Now you should bomb and land because bombing gets you 50% reward and after landing you get the rest
I didn't know that, if that's the case with as much as I get currently I can't wait until I get both premium, and a 300% silver lion booster on top of bombing in simulator battles and Landing 😂
IceyNova it is gone, you have to rtb
@@boobyfanatic4039 So grinding doesn't work anymore?
Step 1: Buy premium Step 2: play as many matches as you can
When i join a battle I need spawn points for my bomber and I can't spawn. Do I have to create the session in order for that to work?
Look for a battle ongion and see what the br is. It goes a max of 1 up and down so a b29 is 7.0, in the battle it will allow 6.7-7.7 so i pick the lowest, middle and highest br i can. Sometimes the game for some reason allows you to get the middle and lower plane 😁
@@dustinl796 oh i see, thank you for your response.
Glad I was able to help :-)
you said "without any delay" then explained silver lions and other stuff taking more time to delay lol. not mad. i just like pointing it out. ty for vidya fam
I'm on ps4 and I cant control my aircraft and it just keeps going left taking off I can't even get off the ground
Pretty sure Gaijin tried to remove this tactic by decreasing the amount of RP and SL that you got for bombing bases in sim. However, rockets still work, so attackers have now become more viable.
How bad is it now? Is it still worth trying?
@@user-lu2yk8iz4o If the bomber that you are using has a low repair cost yes, but it is much more profitable to use an attacker and go for the airfields with rockets. The only problem is the AAA shooting you down at that point.
@@frostblght that's the information i need thanks
Can someone please explain to me how this whole research thing works,started playing today and im clueless
When you play a match you get points that you can use to unlock new planes or upgrade your current ones
What is the best way to bomb the airfield? Is it best to bomb the runway or is it best to take out the buildings. If you could let me know, thatd be great! Thank you
runway
But of the runway destroys, it wont gove you more points
so i have to grind for a bomber because i didnt do any of the bomber tech tree and then i have to learn how to play sim mode and also play like 2 games per day because sim battles last 2 hours as you said. doesnt seem that easy for a beginner (Tier III)

For all the German Tech Tree grinders get yourself the captured P-47 and destroy Artilleriy and such grind to the Do 217 M-1 it carries 4000kg of payload and has a much better climbing rate than the previous Do 217.
If you're cool like I am get a Talisman for the Do 217 M-1 and Bomb Airfields and such.
My best round i had with those two Aircraft i had a couple Tail gunner kills and used the P-47 a bit bombed the Airstrip and such.
Plus i had a booster of a hundred percent and of course Premium i got 220.000XP

@@ChickenNugget-dk9hp what's the best way now ?
they already did nerf bombers in sim. now its useless. there is still method to grind 1m per 2 hours but i'm not gonna share it, cause if too many people will use it, they nerf it too.
@@mesaultintensifies2491 bruh
@@mesaultintensifies2491 talk about it here in a comment
Does this still work April 2020?
not that i can tell. I played a match for 2 hours today. Did 2.8 tonnes of bombing and only got 5000RP to show for it, Which i can do in a good match in arcade. Plus i have premium
goldgreatdane1 It does work, however I would recommend playing at about 3 tier in sim. When bombing airfields you need to remember you have to be above 3500m to not die and bomb each module (the green squares). I recommend bombing the Tents as they are the module that will repair everything unless destroyed. Did this yesterday for about 45m and earned 17k RP and about 100K SL. However I did die twice of my three runs, meaning I lost about 50% of my SL and RP. If you manage to not die on each run you can make some good cash.
@@tasnightcorp great info thank you!
No it doesnt work anymore you will only get 20k ish rp for a 3h match.

Guys this works, I ahd 7 planes unlocked but no lions due to repairs and I was able to dedicate a whole day to just this simulator technique and get 800,000 lions and 14,000 rp
Im honestly not having a lot of fun with this game. Ive got 17 hours in and I still am stuck with trainer aircraft.
If you haven't already, watch plenty of videos on the basics and controls and what keybindings will help you. I started playing about a month ago and had a rough start as well. But changing keybindings and understanding offensive/defensive flying helped a lot
How long would it take for me (at p63) to get to the F4?
(Average 3-6 hours)
I know this sounds kinda stupid but in normal battles I was getting like 600-1000 rp and just wasn’t getting as much as I was hoping for and what others are getting. Some ppl that are fairly new like me might not know but if you just capture zones and get at least 1 or 2 kills and win the match you will get a shit tone of rip and sl
This does work but I still think this way is probably best. It's more boring but it's way easier
@@dustinl796 Is the way in this vid still viable at all?
Yo i just tried this. This doesnt work anymore. You cant select your map and u need atleast 2 people to start.
i was lucky enough to get 1m coins as a beginer, so im just struggling to get EXP.

i am dropping the 250LBs bombs
after i did this video warthunder slightly debuffed bombers, ignore the payload size but the amount of bombs, for some reason more hits give more points but also its only good to do with a major lion or rp bonus now
@@dustinl796 Thanks.
It seems they also nerfed the strategic bombers' respawning rate. last time I tried to respawn in a bomber I had to wait 9 minutes.
They increased the amount of SP required to fly a strategic bomber. You now need 240 instead of 200 :(

@@DeathMonkey0505 yes mate. It's those rank numbers at the beginning of the list when you select a match. You have to chose a game with a matched battle rank to your chosen a/c type.

yes
This is a great method, i just have the problem with getting people into my game. I have no friends that are the same br as me, they are all lower

@dustin.. i get blown almost everytime with no kills every tank game i play (I'm new to tanks).. i have the panzer 3f (2.0 br).. can u make a tips video or something like that... basically how to not get fuvked almost immediately in rb..(I'm good at planes tho).. thanks
Few tips would be play slowly, dont go into the open, look around a lot, dont cross corners without looking left or right and watch your team mates, try to dont stick too close but dont be alone somewhere because than you will get overrun, also dont push too much in front if there is no friendly that can help you
I'll look into it but I don't really know any major tips for tanks at the moment
First of all if you are playing early german tanks around that br you should be aware they have bad armour mostly so you should learn to angle yourself for better protection, if you dont understsnd what I mean look it up or go into the armour protection tab and turn the tank around and see how its potential armour thickness increases. Next you should try to always have a team mate on your side to watch over you and pay constant attention to the map. If you want to go to cap a point then try not to over extend or go head on with the enemy and dont push unless you have some friendly tanks with you. Position yourself so you can watch an area where enemy tanks are likely to appear but be ready to reverse or get to cover. Try not to expose yourself in more then one angle at a time and dont try to engage people in long sightlines. Also dont forget to press b and use your binoculars especially if you are in realistic mode because they will help you a lot as well as the rangefinder which you can activate in the settings. Another really useful tip is to go into the enemy tank tech trees and find the tanks you go up against and look at their armour to see where the weak spots are and the best places to attack them. Try not to carry too much ammunition on you (I usually carry 32 shells max in every tank) you should take 24 heat (high explosive anti tank) shells and then some high explosive shells for shooting open topped vehicles or AA or SPAA where crew members are exposed and some apcr (armour piercing crowned rounds) for shooting targets with tough armour. With this method I almost never get my tank destroyed due to an ammunition fire. Also dont forget to discharge your machine gun to gauge distance as a last resort and alert your allies to where the target is. When researching modifications you want to get parts and fire prevention equipment first then focus on the trees around the engine and transmission before things like add on armour and artillery support.
Find out spots where enemy tanks are driving and flank them or back shoot, best strategy for getman pz III and IV since they have no armor for br.

Boosters only last 30 minutes of any battle you enter. So a 2 hour game the 200% booster only applies to the first 30 minutes of combat you see.
I didn't know that but still, with that being said since you get a ton of extra experience just buy playing this mode with or without boosters it's still 30 minutes then of 200% XP inside of a game mode that grants 200% already for the same task you would do in realistic or arcade :-)
@@dustinl796 if the battle lasts more than 30 min the booster doesn't apply to it
I thought it was every 30 minutes spent in a single battle counts as an additional battle, meaning that 2 hour battle will have the booster the whole time, but will count as 4 missions
@@jonaskohls7008 it's only if that booster allows you to go for 4 battles which are generally only 30% and lower.
