I just want to be able to fly using both joysticks without rebinding almost everything.. Why is this game like this why
Like GTA 5!
To make the player suffer
Same, ever since I screwed up my camera settings, I cant look around at all. It pisses me off. Then you have to sit through a 30+ minute video to have your controls back
this game was made for pc be happy you have it on console
@@user-yj2hd9me5t true. Gotta appreciate gaigin for making us console players able to play the game. Although i have a feeling they did it so they can earn money from them as well
By chance could you make an updated version? It's just there's been so much new mechanics
Thank you so much for the guide! This helps a ton! I was getting frustrated with all the default controls. I’ve definitely seen improvement in my score at the end of matches.
Damn, time to unlearn the setup made for myself lmao, this one is way better. I am unable to even use radar missiles because I don't have enough space to do any radar stuff xD. Believe it or not I played WT for a whole year without having any rudder controls binded
I played it since 2016 without rudder controls :D
Lol
I played it since 1975 with no controls whatsoever
@@thebassboostedchannel1251 I played it in 1941. It started WWII when my team attacked Pearl Harbor. Ack! Ack! 😝
@@saltybits9954 so relatable!
I'm new so this saved me from having to come up with my own. I really like these plane controls. Much appreciated!
You're welcome. Thank you and enjoy.
Just found this video today and I'm so glad I did, because when I first started my pitch controls for some reason just hardly did anything at all, then I found out about pointer control, that help me actually fly a bit better but still lacked because then if I tried turning too hard my plane would just roll over, finally I'll be able to play the way it was meant to be played!
What is pointer control?
@@snapplecode7262 basically a dot on the screen that your plane flys to
Man, you are a lifesaver. I have really wanted to get into WT, but the dumb mouse flying makes my head explode... you, sir, are a gentleman and a scholar
just downloaded war thunder and these settings are going to take some time to get used to, but i can tell will be easily well worth it in the long run. good stuff man, love when games have advanced settings.
I prefer controls without the "mouse" like a real joystick and be able to look everywhere just with the right stick but your mapping really help me with mecanical and weapons stuff, thx a lot
Yes, it's more fun but i tried and i can't touched anything. Do u have some tips? Because it's so easy with a mouse
@@casscrane6040 Well you definitly gonna lose some aim in exchange of fun and be at disadvantage with these settings.
Some tips ? Don't really have one.
Just massively use the flaps ( combat or landing ). Be able to make sharp turn is always useful and you will gain some accuraty as you slow down a bit. Maybe with some practice you'll get better
Personally i don't play for the ratio or win a game and i'm not espescially good at it.
I just like the controls of planes in game like GTA or Battlefield and with the touch of realism of War Thunders it's more natural and fun to me like this. :3
@@Fera-max thanks, but what's your button for yaw axis?
@@casscrane6040 just like GTA, R1 and L1 or RB and LB if you're on Xbox
@@Fera-max thx i'll try, the biggest challenge will be aim
Dude thank you so much this vid convinced me to continue trying to play warthunder bc my controls were all messed up like crazy, but with this new setup I’m actually able to level up now and get 15-20 kills each match 🙏🙏
Holy shit
On arcade?
@@BonesAv on a bit of arcade but mostly realistic
@@ianm3262 you play a bit of sim too?
You lie
This is now my second time putting these settings in. They take some getting used to but seriously help thanks so much for this video😊
I can finally FLY again..brings back so many pc memories 😥
Thank you - for this excellent video!
Wow this actually helped all my gameplay finally got a 10kill in a match my highest used to be 2 thanks 🙏🏻
Yes! A new video by DrkDeath5000 is always something to look for, so I'm very pleased to see this update. Also going through Options is much appreciated. Thank you very much for all these great uploads and taking time to respond to all my noobie questions.
aircraft settings were very good
🧢
@@TheLargeOne 🤣 imma test it rn
@@AngelDiaz-ng8tf lmk how it goes
@@TheLargeOne its alr wouldn't say very good
Its hard to fly and aim with this setting
I love being in a plane in events it is just because there are tons of players beneath you and see and cheer you flying by
Hey man new to the game and Chanel thought I’d do my research before tackling this monster. Thank you for posting this video found it very useful as a middle aged man! GG
Was it hard to setup the settings
Much thanks, the amount of bindings for this game is ridiculous.
Your flying setup is sick!!! Keep up the good work bro.
Thank u soooo much, i accidentally deleted my controls and i was Just bombing but couldnt dogfight, wth this video i recorevered my settings wich were almost the same than yours and now i can dogfight again! THANK U
I've seen your original vid a little while ago, really helped me in this game on xbox. Watched all sorts of videos and couldn't figure out how people seem to be looking around with ease and still maneuver effectively. Max pitch + increasing mouse aim sensitivity worked wonders.
Not really liking that December update though. Any time a plane fly past you hear this generic " close fly-by" sound .. and it's the same regardless of the aircraft. Not sure if it was this update or a late one but I get bad lag whenever I'm on someone's tail and closing in for the kill. It's so bad i often had to break off.
Then there's the ridiculous match making happening now. Historical enemies are now allies. I'm assuming that they did this in order to have more matches available, but they need to mix it up more. I'm loving the Mig 3-15 (bk) now, but 99% of the time I get put up against a U.S and Japan tag-team. There are usually no heavy bombers for me to attack and everything can out maneuver me. Still fun, but prefer going up against proper enemies of the Russians.
Yes the lag and the mixed match making is really killing the experience this update. Sadly i feel this is going to be the new norm - they've added so many Nations and vehicles its the only way they can keep the match making going. Not to mention it promotes faster games which encourages more grinding and equals more premium players (premium money) for Gaijin. Another argument is they've moved to mixed to help Allies get more wins but from where i'm looking its still Axis VS Allies for the most part just Germany and Japan mixed so i'm not sure where they got that idea from. Besides since when has Gaijin ever cared about balance its always about the Premium currency and making money you just have to look deeper to get the full picture. Game is still fun but as you've already said you can no longer use you're planes strength in its proper capacity.
@@DrkDeath5000 broooo you are the only one that helped me more of my controller thanks only youtuber that helps ps4 players!!. But one more thing...can u tell me how to freelook without rolling i messed up a bit my controls as I was "playing" to change set up
@@andros01georgiou74 I would check common controls for mouse look activation. Make sure you dont have anything extra bound in there. If you're running my settings it should be X button or A button if you're on Xbox. ruclips.net/video/5m3g8TABi_M/видео.html
@@DrkDeath5000 I'm on ps4 bro!. I run some of ur controls! I can't change my settings entirely im like this to all my games lol(bad) thanks Man appreciate it I'll be waiting for u! Btw I've send u personal msg and friend request!! Ty for ur time
@Andros01 Georgiou I play on xbox , which controller wise, is similar to playstation. I hold down the left trigger ( L1) for playstation and use the right joystick to look around. I've played Il2: Birds of prey a lot on the xbox 360 and in that game you need to click the right stick down and move it around for freelook so this is mainly why I chose the right stick for this ... and holding down a trigger makes it easier than clicking a stick down.
OMG THE FIRST GAME WITH THOSE AIR CONTROLS I DROP 14 KILLS THANK YOU SO MUCH!
this video was so helpful thank you👍
Gave it a shot, but simply doesnt work for my "FPS control" brain. Primarily play WT on PC and was attempting to find a good build to play in bed from my PS5.
I love a lot of your principals though, and it opened my eyes to some options. Thank you for taking the time to make the video and share even though they don't work for me!
Just starting to learn WT controls for planes on X/one and gotta say, I think I am going with your setup, it seems to cover everything
Mate im not from USA or english speaking contry so i hawe x/one and whitch one is exactly for aim sencitivity?
@@user-sf5jc1tv1l You know English comes from England right?
@@user-sf5jc1tv1l it's covered in the vud
@@Aureus_ Yes i know, and i dont care no need to tell me about english language stop trying to be a smartass.
@@Aureus_ Whats your point even? You are trying to be a smart ass yet your point accomplished and added nothing. Pretty much everyone knows that and what he said has nothing to do with the English language coming from England. Furthermore why does it matter? Try seeking approval for your intelligence somewhere else my guy
currently test flying with most of the settings on screen (only differences are not activating some things due to new settings that weren't shown so really no difference) and im loving it
You running these on jets yet?

@@jagass8669 I'm close lol
You deserve 1 million subscribers … keep nice working and thank you very much you help me a lot love and respect from Iraq 🌹
Thanks a lot you changed my game style
Thanks for your great work you are always amazing. 1 note to add tanks is really difficult to control with this setup i will switch between aiming and stearing
You get used to it after a while. The main reason I recommend going left stick for aiming is down to how the dpad is set up. You cant press up and down together or left and right together so if you inverted the sticks you would be losing out on two possible bindings. The way I have it set up currently you can switch between zoom and binoculars while aiming/moving and those extra bindings on X/triangle and square/circle are important if you plan to fit everything on the controller.
@@DrkDeath5000 Would this still apply to xbox, since the d-pad and left stick are switched inc comparrison to playstation?
@@commanderknight9314 I would imagine so, its not so much the layout of the dpad thats the problem its more internal hardware related. The dpad itself is physically unable to register both up and down or left and right movements together only directional and horizontal presses are possible so 8-way opposed to the 12-way you get on the face buttons.
@@DrkDeath5000 Thanks.
This is fucking shit on an Xbox controller. Fucking terrible.
perfect settings I finally manage to play on a plane I didn't understand why the guys shot so fast now I understand ^^ thank you very much!! Merci beaucoup 😊
How
@@sefulEatClxps he just watch the video
Thank you so much for this video!!!
very helpful video, thank you.
Man, thank you so much, I'll finally have a chance against PC players, thank you very much
Thank you sir I appreciate the time and effort you out into these videos
Thanks a lot man this really really helped
I subscribed because u helped me understand the other the other half I couldn't appreciate it man
Hard to get use to from base settings but as I get use to it I can progressively see my skill increase
This is so helpful. I have Lear’s much from your videos. I’m grateful to you for making them. Any chance you will update this controller video for 2022?
Glad to hear it! I'm taking a break from War Thunder currently playing DayZ and other games for a change but i will always come back to War Thunder. Possibly early to late spring i'll put some new War Thunder content out there.
Amazing, thank you so much.
Took me 3 days to get used to them now i kick absolute ass in air br tnx man!
First of all, Thank You. The amount of work you’ve put into this is obvious. And then you share it. Just got the PS5 but it won’t load the PS4 control file! So if you don’t want to spend hours transcribing; you use the PS4 game playing it on the PS5. Plus you must use the PS5 controller. So my programmed Razer Raipur Ultimate won’t work with the PS5 game. What one earth are we to so?//
How is the PS5 WT version really aside from the controls is it as bad as people are making out? I'm not sold on next gen consoles myself if anything i'm considering moving to PC as my main gaming machine since theres more freedom over what you can use.
@@DrkDeath5000 I've always played War Thunder on PS. Mainly because (before Covid) I've always worked from home, in a study, on a PC. Thus I go to the living room and play in front of a large screen. It was only at the beginning of the PS5 version did both versions crash often. That's stopped now. The PS5 is fast but, like I said, moving these control settings is taking ages. I'm sorry you might be leaving us for the PC (and understand that). I really enjoy the sprung, progressive nature of joysticks. And if (like fandangomobile) I went to PC I'd used one of those excellent HOTAS (Phlydaily has showcased some). The joystick produces a greater sensation of flight control than a mouse - it just must. Finally on the subject of you moving to PC - I think it's more difficult than it looks. I see a great deal of discussion in my Squadron about technical PC & Hardware problems. Naturally, I've never seen any of those on my PS.
@@nairb-ds1vn Its something i'm considering not set in stone or anything but lets just say i'm definately swaying towards PC. These last few updates have shown me one thing only and thats that console players will always be the last on their list of fixes. Its been like that for years and as far as i can see they dont intend to change anything anytime soon whether thats last gen or next gen we're always going to be at the bottom. Besides i'm kind of at a point where i've had it with the Gaijin & Sony technicalities. Not to mention the limitations of consoles and what you can and cant use (controllers, joysticks, head tracking, mods etc). And then there's the lack of actual sim games on console, seriously what happened to consoles, other than War Thunder we havent had anything decent in years. Meanwhile PC have multiple iterations of IL2, DCS, Microsoft Flight Sim and even games like Euro Truck Simulator 2 which have nothing to do with planes but i'd still love to play. Dont get me wrong i enjoy the simplicity of console just turn it on and you're away but if things have to get technical for a better gaming experience i feel it would be worth it in the longrun. Whether or not i give up my controller for War Thunder is another matter - I'm particulary interested in seeing what the Steam overlay can do, as far as customising a controller it looks like a powerful bit of software (similar to razer raiju but more customisable). Anyway this is all speculation at this point and honestly depends on Gaijin and where they go with PS5. Not to mention the actual cost of PC hardware has sky rocketed since Covid to the point where its out of my reach so things would need to go back to some level of norm before i could even consider PC.
Thx this helped a lot thx lover ur channel
this guy dosent read his comments bro
and makes like 4 videos a year otherwise i would sub
Thank you for this!
Great work, supernice!
Question: what is the purpose of “Weapon Lock Air/Ground” I don’t have it binded and I’ve never needed to use it to fire a missile. I’ve always just used the fire secondary to do everything. Thanks!
At first I thought I would need to lower the overall sensitivity because I'm used to playing a low sens but once you get used to it, it's not that bad :D
Video fantastico e molto utile 👍👍
Cercavo da tempo di capire come fare!
Thank's
Honestly I've been using these controls now for a bit and I have never been better at Air RB now then when I wasn't using these controls I have now aced almost my entire Japanese line of tier 2 plane's
That game is so fun but so long bro i just tryhard one week for pass my American aircraft on tier 2
hey I fixed your mappings. Mostly by switching the aim joysticks with the steering.
I like to map R1 for minimum value thrust/engine on tanks,
and R2 for maximum value, because then it feels a lot like old gta.
I put primary fire on L1 and Secondary on L2
For planes, thrust R1/R2, Roll left joystick left-right, Pitch right joystick up-down, and yaw right joystick left-right, Square and Circle.
I switched from mouse aiming to simplified because I want to aim by maneuvering, but I understand how you do it... I just don't like having a separate aim reticle that the plane tries to constantly correct to, and I prefer tying my vision to the plane's nose and not to a separate reticle.
I've just jumped back into war thunder and I'm glad that someone has taken the time to go into detail about the controls cos I look at them all and I'm like how the hell to I make this work for xbox lol
Great advise thank you very much
Been using roller ball mouse and keyboard since war thunder came out. Trying to learn controllers for fun time with family and friends
After watching this video, I decided to uninstall this game
currently doing these settings while watching this video rethinking my life's decisions
I'm using mouse aim on series s, but I have pitch and roll set to the left stick instead of the shoulder buttons
Thanks man ✌
Thank you so much!
I play almost exclusively spits rn and the controls r solid. However I can’t seem to get a bomb sight for when I want to drop a single 250er late game you know? Just want to know how to get the bombing reticle
Spits don't have a bomb sight so that would be why you can't find it.
Drk, just want to ask you why you don't set up for the 'view in battle' controls? It is useful when you want to check your six and maybe look around.
I was wondering the same thing.
@@rseagrave18 I find the mouse look better since it resets back to center automatically.
@@DrkDeath5000 Ooh, I hadn't thought of that, good idea, I'll give it a try.
Thanks for this i saw instant improvement on my part I'm getting kills now
Glad to hear it enjoy 👍
Can you make an updated version of this for 2022 since they have the wing sweep mechanic now? Thanks in advance if you do
I tried these controls in air rb for a good while but just can't hack it, I learnt to play on mouse and keyboard an me brain can't handle the switch to controller
Yea i tried these controls but i think I will just buy nouse n keys for my box because this is too much lol
Thanks Death for all your tips and vids, on the way to becoming an ok console realistic pilot and tanker. Interesting to here your thoughts on next gen consoles and getting a pc. All I play really on Xbox now is war thunder and am getting fed up with laggy graphics, blocky graphics and purple after a while! The faster the planes the worse this handicap gets. Considering purchasing latest Xbox console (if u can find one) or a pc. Do u think it would be easy to transition accounts learn how to play game on pc? Interested in playing more sim too and assume if had pc, flight joystick would be the way to go. Thanks
I dont know what the deal is on Xbox but for PS4/PS5 Gaijin are allowing us to switch to full PC accounts. From what i understand all you're vehicles, ranks, etc get transferred over to a full PC account. I know a couple of the regulars on the WT forums have already transferred and have been playing full PC since late December now so i assume its all worked out for them. I expect the actual learning to play keyboard and mouse would take time though; i've been playing controller for 20 years give or take so it would be a particularly hard transition for me. I'm interested in seeing what PC specifically the Steam overlay can do for controllers since you can configure action sets and macro's, i feel like that might give us more options on a controller.
Hello there. Was bothered that i couldnt chat or deploy smoke on ps so i stumbled across your video. Wonderfull set of controlls. I tryed using it, tho the plane wobbles so much with it. Is there anything to increase stability or is it something you learn to control with time?
Glad to hear you found the controls helpful. The sensitivity you should generally learn with time i have it tweaked on the higher side for fast deflection shots but you may find it easier early on to lower the values while you learn. It won't fix the rudder wobble unfortunately that is just something built into the game and specific planes but lowering the sensitivity should eliminate most of the wobble when aiming.
So from the ground vehicle for the ones who hasn't understood why the camera is freely roaming or 180° at start of match or after aiming
First tip don't move your controller that much or the vehicle camera will go free
Secondly press x to reset your camera
There is a big difference in aiming sensitivity with the 1.3 multiplier on the x axis. Much slower than the 1.0 standard.
Why id this video so long i watched it and these controls suck
@@DailyPodcastDose1yeah, i went back to default controls with a few little edits to them and i just accept that i need to get better and different controls won’t do that for me
@@james_wilton223i’ve used these controls for almost a year and they work great for me.
I think it’s just the matter of getting used to it, that and personal preference of course.
@@james_wilton223I’ve edited them slightly of course to suit me better.
Thank you bro
Thought i try my hand at warthunder again after years of not playing lol i really like these controls.Thank you muchly haha
Is there a way to turn off the missing controls notification whenever I start a match?
I just started yesterday idk sorry
I saw the guide and immediately deleted the game 😂
Man I LOVE rebinding my entire controls scheme
Fr dude it is so mucho fun wasting minutes or hours on this
I'm needing controls for guided bombs and Bullpup, Everytime I try to use them the TV camera loves to look as if I'm playing an earthquake simulator. Do you have any preferences?
You may not read this, but can you play WT on ps4?
Yes
I agree man.
I mainly play tanks. And so my biggest issue, is the sensitivity during aiming! While trying to aim just right, the mouse player already has me targeted, and am now dead! So frustrating.
@M Aguiar I've got Control Freaks. But sadly they keep popping off, especially right when I need them to work, LOL.
What I need, is the right settings to allow fast turret turns when needed. But a way to slow down the crosshair when trying to make small, tiny movements. So need good suggestions on setting the gamepad acceleration, as well as the setting for I think linear movements?
You can mess with the aim acceleration setting. They help you make fine adjustments while also being able to spin around quickly.
Thank you, this was very helpful!
Any possibility of doing one for Destiny? (I'm playing on a PC using a Fusion contoller).
The airplane controls are basically perfect but for me the tank ones - not so much, but each to their own
This is so stupid, it should be up to the game dev to work all of this out. IL2 sturmovik was the predecessor to this game and that worked brilliantly on controller with default settings…
Agreed. Its partly why i've stopped updating these videos in hope that Gaijin see's some sense and starts actually improving controller support.
I used the tanks setting and the first time I was tested it out it made me look backwards
Press x
Lol I should not be laughing these hard
Thank you 🙏
Finely someone made it think u a lot
Sería de gran ayuda que alguien hiciera un video así en español 😢😭 o que lo traduzcan por que es muy difícil leer y ver que selecciona al mismo tiempo
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. John 3:16-17
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, 1000000 THANK YOU.
you did great with these controller settings, its still usable today. Hold max pitch to look around, but still controll the plane, is great way for defensive flying. Although i have one comment about max pitch. It is quite extreme maneuver so the plane is loosing speed when you hold max pitch. But with energy fighters you should not loose energy. With bad turners who rely on speed, max pitch might be even bad. What do you think about this after years of gameplay? I am new to WT.
You're not wrong i dont play so much anymore myself but used to tap L1 to minimise the energy loss and g locks on the pilot. Its a technique i used to use to drain other players of energy in the first few turning circles.
thx brother
Do you plan on updating this guide to account for all the stuff that has changed?
Ty everything is better
Dude trying to fly a helo with default control s was a pain in the butt thanks.
Thank you
That soooooo much better on PS! All games and their settings are better on PS. I left this (X)Shitbox forever. 4year gameplay with Warthunder(and other games) on Xbox and now I see why PS much better is. Thanks for the video! Anyway, the advice can be used well on all consoles except Xbox. A lot of setting options are not available on Xbox that are available on other consoles. It doesn't matter now, I still really enjoyed Warthunder and always finished the matches on the podium, now I can see that the game will be much more enjoyable and comfortable with PS.
Best video on yt
I cant figure out a problem. When i hold down the dpad to do a free look around the right stick doesnt work anymore because I deleted my settings by accident (dont ask). Any advice? Isn’t there a way to set it back to default besides removing the game?
This is a great guide it helped me tons. I only have one thing I wish I could change and I'm wondering if anyone knows how... say I roll my plane upside down, it always rolls back automatically once I let go. Is there a way to make I just stay in that position and not correct?
Also I put my team chat on square and dpad left, general same thing but dpad down then there is a problem with having stats on cross + dpad right since my flaps would go to landing and snap so I switched it to square + dpad down
YESS THANK U I JUST DROPPED A 4 BOMB WITH THESE
Do these controls still cover everything in 2023 or have you adjusted some things ? great video, liked and subbed.
I still use the same controls just bare in mind the mouse look camera activation is bugged currently its very slow to look around so you might want to revert to using the standard view in battle camera
@@DrkDeath5000 appreciate the reply, do you have a discord or some group going wouldn't mind playing some games with other people?
Ive joined a ton of discords and facebook groups, all dead with hardly anyone answering any comments or messages
Hey how would you lock onto something using the atgm in a helicopter like a ka50 or ah64 peten? My friend has talked about it but I can't find out hout
Ty. The default is absolutely ahh. And I'm too lazy to change em myself
Bro im the same person before 2 months , ur settings are really good but i need spectator mode controls also and thanks man
Spectator controls are bugged as far as i'm concerned. Never have been able to get them to work properly. Even the default controls dont allow you to look around so until Gaijin decides to fix them theres not a lot i or ayone can do unfortunately.
@@DrkDeath5000 thanks dude ,i thought only me have this problem
I don’t know what I did wrong but on ground battle(tanks) I’m all the time on the hull aiming mode and I’m trying to put it on 3 person but can’t seem to find the option or setting
TY 👏👏👏
