- Grinding to top tier as a free to play player with no premium time or high tier premium vehicles took a while and was pretty rough, so I'd like to share a few specific things that I did that helped me grind through faster and made the experience more enjoyable.
First time trying a voice over and "editing" so I'm still learning the ropes and things are not as smooth as I'd like but I think it came out alright.

Two More Disclaimers:
I cannot recommend using the "Free GE" app to get GE, at least in its current state.
I have used GE I got from the "Free GE" app in the past to purchase a few vehicles (specifically the Cobra King M4A3E2, the Cent Mk.5 Battlepass, and one bush?)
It was pretty neat back in the day because you could get GE from watching ads so I'd do that while sideclimbing, but last I checked, they removed that option and so now it's just "Get to level X in Clash of Clans clone" or "Sign up for 'free' trial with your personal information and credit card number."
Also, Gaijin are considering giving RP boosts to people who have top tier in one nation already when researching new nations, but it seems it will take at least a few months for them to make a decision on this so for now, it won't affect how I approach grinding new nations.
You underrated for sure, if you really wanna make it big a better mic would be the play, otherwise be consistent with your content and im sure youll get a wonderfull audience
Yeah this is my first time trying any audio voiceover so i'm not 100% happy with how the audio balance worked out but I think I can improve it as I continue
nah his mic is alr
Honestly I kinda prefer mediocre mics, it adds something special to the video, somehow a lower quality mic makes videos better for me.
Lol thanks, that's a very interesting complement
@@CT-9904-Crosshair its because it makes him feel more relatable, like you could have made the video and not some top tier tuber
Very nice video! I was honestly shocked that you don’t have like 100k subs or more. You definitely deserve more recognition. Keep up the good work!!!
Nice video, the spading part actually helped me grind through some planes from the US tech tree that i was having a hard time with. I think that the grind is painful, but what really makes it awful is the SL grind. For me, researching a vehicle takes less time than grinding for the SL to purchase it, buy a crew, upgrade the crew abilities and spade it. It's very annoying, since you spend so much time researching a vehicle only to not be able to buy it right away and have to grind SL just to buy it and repeat the cycle but in a worse scale for the next vehicle that will be more expensive and more time consuming.
The SL grind can be very annoying, but I feel like because I go back to play props for fun and I do well enough to profit there, I usually don't have too many issues with SL nowadays.
It also helps to spend SL during the SL sales during holidays.
Earned yourself a follow, keep up the good work. Definetly deserve around a thousand followers i'd say.
Very much enjoyed that video. I'll definitiv watch some more of your stuff.
Incredibly good video, first time I've heard a content creator give many of these tips despite watching DEFYN etc for years. I'm definitely gonna use this as a source for helping those new to the game who are f2p :)
Thanks for the kind words! I do think that he might've covered it at some point but nowadays, his grind advice usually is limited to "I recommend these talismans/premium vehicles". Not that this is a negative point, since that's what most people are looking for, but I thought I'd share my two cents as well :)
I like the way you talk so calmly, pretty relaxing tbh
underviewd youtuber, good luck in the future!
cool video. For me the biggest struggle in the grind is a lack of SL, I currently need like 300k+ to be able to research the next aircraft that'll move me forward in the tech tree, however I've finally found the plane that lends me good games often so I think I can fix this now, and finally get into rank IV
Nice, that's great to hear!
Yeah, SL can be rough, but I play props that I've spaded already for fun a lot and I do fairly well so I don't have too many issues with it nowadays.
The winter sales will be coming up around new years, where for a few days all vehicle purchase costs will go down by 50% off or 30% off, so it might be worth waiting until then to buy your vehicles.
Yeah bro repair cost is a real pain
@@chaseonthecase9191 yeah :( I'm glad its not as bad as before tho
For the reviews, I watch jengar a lot, and it has really helped me. But by the way your videos are criminally underrated
Nice! I like Jengar's stuff, got me through a lot of the soviet props.
Similar in format to Defyn but feels more slower paced and relaxed.
This video was made for me, also love to hear your voice
It's not actually my voice I just sampled every recording of a serial killer's voice I could find and ran them thru an ai voice generator
@@CatWerferhot
Good vid! Thx for the tip of f1 to f16 !
I'm not sure i would recommend it right now though, the F1 used to get a lot of downtiers so it did okay, but now you face a lot of 11.3
your sub count baffled me after seeing the quality of this video, keep it up! you deserve much more recognition i must say. Also what is your opinion on playing arcade or either realistic considering the skill level of a player is significally low? Cause I play WT with my father together and i am trying to learn him to play realistic because i also see it more beneficial after tier 4-5 but since he isnt much skilled as you would expect, he rarelly get even a single AI kill, but in arcade he gets a few kills just because of the respawns. And now we cant decide if we should just keep on playing realistic or just stick to arcade until he get better at the game.
Arcade is fun! I played arcade for a long time and it definitely requires skill and can be improved upon. I've seen people get like 30+ kills in one game which is kind of insane, you'd never get that in realistic. I don't remember their channel name but I was just baffled at what kind of goofy stuff you can pull off there.
Now my specialty is realistic and I only play arcade occasionally. In terms of grind, arcade can be good for unlocking modifications since your plane's flight performance isn't nerfed so much stock and you get multiple respawns, but rewards for new vehicle grind kinda sucks.
While arcade requires a specific skillset you can learn, they don't quite translate too well over to realistic, and I'm more a fan of the slow paced methodical gameplay of RB, plus rewards are better, so I stick to that.
TLDR: Arcade is a great starting point for fun furball action and a great entry point into learning the game, but rewards can kinda suck and I personally enjoy realistic more. The learning curve for realistic is much rougher, so I'm gonna try to make some videos regarding that, but I do suggest him coming back to it later down the line, it's an experience that I personally enjoy much more.
Crazy Underrated! just a suggestion, maybe turn the volume on your mic up a little bit, was a little quiet, Great video!
Thanks!
I wanted to increase it, but my room has a very audible fan and I did my best to use the EQ to dampen it but you can still hear it in parts so I also tried to cover it in music...
Maybe it's best i don't do voiceover until my situation changes
@@CatWerfer ahh okay, that makes sense, Just subbed!
Subscribed , love the channel so far
Thanks! Haven't had much time to do may tips and guides videos recently but I'm working on more soon!
@@CatWerfer ive been playing for years and i always can learn something new . Keep it up man!!
Good video m8 you got my sub.
finally a video that i can properly follow without someone screaming in my ears. Keep it up!
Have you been listening to a drill seargent? lol
Honestly, watching this video really helped me understand how to get better.
Furthermore, somehow I have more subscribers than you, which makes me realise how much the algorithm has punished you... this channel is golden, and I think you deserve my subscribers much more than I do. I hope you blow up, you deserve significantly more attention, and hopefully you can end up getting some free stuff.
Wish you the best man. And thanks for the help. You're a great content creator man! (Better than me)
Haha I'm not really hear for subscribers, I've just been playing a long time and an old dog wants to help people learn some tricks.
As long as the people who do watch my videos have something to take away from them, I'm happy.
(Also i did just start my channel like a few weeks ago so it's not surprising that it takes time for these things to gain traction)
And hey, don't put yourself down, the people who sub to you are there cuz they like your stuff and wanna see more!
@CatWerfer Honestly man, thank you. But I'd love to see you grow. The quality of your videos is awesome, even if it's a hobby, your videos are the kind that could end up making money.
Stay safe man. I loved that outro too, with the jet crashing and whatnot. Keep it up, you're really creative at what you do.
This man need's more subscriber's.
currently grinding the israeli tree (working on the kurnass) and yeah, its painful, excited to see your thoughts on it in the future tho! GL man, good vid
Israel is not really on my to do list at the moment since it seems like a lot of copy and paste from US/UK/FR, but i will play the sptifire f mk9 since i do like it, maybe itll get me somewhere
@@CatWerferThe python 3s make it all worth it lol, the Netz was the most fun F-16 to play until the C came out.
But to be fair i used the kfir canard to grind the whole tree, which made it all extremely fast, got up to and grinded netz with just 221 battles of the kfir.
@@javier1zq *points to non-premium players "Look at what they have to do to mimic a fraction of our power"
yeah the python3s look pretty cool, but at the same time, I have my aim9ms and my r73s so I don't think they interest me enough to wanna grind thru like 15 skyhawks
I mean the way I see premium time, is that I like this game, for sure like it a lot more than an MMO, or heck a lot of modern paid games. 40 dollars a year for premium time if you buy it on one of the sales is a good enough deal for me. If I'm already spending 40-60 hours a week working a job, I don't want the 20 hours a week I have to myself to feel like a whole other grind. Besides, its less than a dollar a week at that rate and anyone in a 1st world country is not hurting that much for cash unless they have more pressing concerns than complaining about an online game.
Still a very good guide that explains a pretty good way to go about grinding in game.
Yep, I am not telling anyone not to get premium time/vehicles. If you have the money and would rather save your sanity and your time, then by all means go for it.
I just know that there are people who might not have that so I thought I'd make this to help some people out.
I would lowe a controls guide. Great wideo keep up the doog work. Thanks for the tips.
a control guide for sure would be awesome
I'm still tweaking stuff in terms of controls but once I feel confident that I have something 100% down I'll do one eventually. some of my control keybinds are a bit unorthodox (spacebar = fire airplane cannons), but I think most of them I have good reason to keep weird like that
You're one of the first players who I've incountered who are like me. Got to the F-16D, with no money spent on the game.
"hes just like me frfr"
Got to Top teir USA in 13 months (from starting). Possibly 1400 hours played. 13 months include many longer pauses, often being weeks long.
Got to toptier in israel in 14 months since i started playing war thunder. I don't think im gonna have the courage to get to toptier in the US respect.
a voiceover on the gameplay videos would be cool
Right when I heard him say I got to top tier in multiple countries without top tier premiums or premium time I thought of him as a insane person
Haha I am insane but I'm also the brainworm living in ur head
I have always played without premium vehicles and premium time in War Thunder. I've been playing USA planes and getting to the 5th rank was the hardest, then it started getting easier. Personally, I find the F-4C the best plane for grinding. Battlerating of 10.0 isn't bad at all and you won't get uptiered to 12.0 like on the F-4E. I used to bomb 2 bases a match and then dogfight and destroy ground targets but as they increased the time bases are respawning I changed the strategy. Now I'm kind of desperate and I have 9m of fuel, drop tank and bombs to destroy 2 bases, but it's a really nice and quick way of grinding because most of the time you'll get to the base first and you'll get about 3500xp a match. This also solves any sl problems because bombing gets you good amount of money.
Currently, I'm researching F-4J and when I'm done i will unlock the 8th rank and immediately will start researching F-15 (i have F-5E and F-4E).
833 hours in game, fully f2p and in some time I'm about to get my first 12.3 great jet and it feels amazing
Surprise surprise, the F-4C is my most played vehicle, and I did exactly the same thing lmao
I was there I think when we first discovered that the rockets were better for doing base damage, and so gaijin nerfed their base damage into the ground.
(video on F-4C coming soon)
I would say you hit the mark in the first minute, you wanted to play different and unique vehicles. Most newer players are only interested in what's top tier at the moment. So the grind seems even longer since they aren't looking at the next cool thing but rather the last thing. I always enjoyed trying out all the vehicles that I research even if I don't go and spade them fully in the end.
Thanks!
I do agree that most people are only interested in the new shiny planes, and gaijin likes to advertise it cuz it makes them money, but personally I find actually playing top tier to be very unfun.
The flight models of the top tiers feel great to fly but you never get to use them since games are just missile spam and furballs most of the time instead of close in dogfights. I wish there was an IRCCM-less IR missile only 8v8 dogfight modes.
@@CatWerfer Personally agree, Got the F-16AJ when it first came out, played it till I got all the missiles unlocked. Fuck top tier was the instant vibe afterwards. 10.0 is about as high as I like to go anymore and even that just isn't as exciting.
@@kattkatt6961 Yep. I do still play it from time to time, but it's way too hectic for me.
I'm sure other people have got it to work for them but at this point, I'm more here for the cool vehicles as opposed to the gameplay itself.
based video 10 out of 10 would recommend
Just a thing that I find that makes grinding easy is playing with friends and interacting with the community. I'm not saying as a pro or anything (literally a lvl 10 at rank 4 Sweden) but that is what made bad games good. A good example that actually brought me into the game, was RussianBadgers videos of them just having fun and playing just to play.
100% I definitely should have mentioned this, playing with friends makes the whole experience much more fun
@@CatWerfer that's what I'm saying. Only issue is finding friends to play with tbh
Respect for u bro
tim's variety also has great aircraft reviews
100%, tims is amazing. While he's not the most "skilled" at air rb, his historical context intros are great and I love his videos addressing the reviewbombing+ how gaijin could improve. Genuinely believe his suggestions played a big role in gaijins new roadmap
I commented on his spit video saying how I really like his new thumbnails with vehicle outlines
Good video.
I’ve wanted to play planes for a while now but have never really gotten into it, been mostly ground maining on Russia (highest br 8.7) and Germany (highest br 7.7) should I just start with nations I’ve already played or play America or something else? There are specific jets that I would like to learn to use so I can take them to ground rb or Air rb (also bc they look fun). Also is it worth it to buy a $70 pixel plane? I feel like I’d have a shit load to learn if I’ve never played props before that leap in tech. Dope vid btw
Germany and USSR have pretty good jet options from bottom to top, and I do think it'd be best to stick with the nations you have ground for since then at the very least you can bring the planes you grind as CAS in ground RB.
Unless of course you want planes from a different nation (US?) significantly more than GER and USSR.
I would definitely not buy a premium top tier jet until you've gotten at the minimum to rank 4 planes in at least one nation, and even that's a bit of a stretch, buying a top tier premium will just be very painful if you don't have the core air gameplay mechanics down.
The learning curve is pretty rough, and it's not fun to die once with no respawn in air rb and leave especially when ur new, so you might wanna start with air arcade, which is easier to find matchmakers for at low tier, has more respawns, and will still teach the basic basics like leading and energy. Once at rank 3 ish though it'll probably be best to switch over to realistic.
I'm planning on making a series about how to get into and learn air rb so if you're interested you can stay tuned, but other CCs have done similar things too so u can go watch them (DEFYN)
@@CatWerfer hey thanks for the follow up, and yeah I figured buying into top tier air wouldn’t be a wise choice since it was quite difficult for me when I did that in ground rb. I’m gonna start to grind out Russia and see how it goes thanks for the advice again 😎
I prefer to stay close and behind an enemy then take the shot if an enemy moves left or right I’m forced into a decision to follow then take it out of the sky some people will stay in a straight line till they make their own decision to do evasive maneuvers if there is a cluster of enemies try to avoid them or have a group pick them off one at a time and make sure everyone has one target.
so me and my friends do this thing where all we do is hop into an air assult arcade game and hit a few ais but as long as u kill one or have some action you will be able to ge the reward, so after that just fly around for 20 minutes while your other teamates do the work
then use the boosters u get usually between 250% and 500% some even stacking to 700% boosters to efficiently research alot.
also ive recently figured out that the more activity and time spent alive the more rp you get. therefore if you just get a few kills, groundpound when ur teamates are chasing down the last guy you could squeeze the rest of the rp out into the next airplane.
hey! are you predicting the content of the video I'm just about to finish rendering and publish!
@@CatWerfer what
@@ITS_SCHM0L haha im joking but I was in the middle of rendering and uploading my most recent video where i talk about playing air assault when i saw your comment
@@CatWerfer oh
I’ve got Germany to high tier (my currently highest plane is the Starfighter at 10.7 unless you count the event Su25 at 11.3 that I’ve got and 9.7 ground), what is your opinion on getting the Phantom II for America and the MiG 23 ML for the USSR (at least when they finally do some proper sales) to get grind those TTs? Do you have an opinion on those planes or recommendations as to what plane I should get instead?
Also what do you think about using the A6M5 ko to get the R2Y2 with which I would then grind rank 6? Or should I rather just grind rank 6 directly with the Zero as I really like it (I already got that thing cause my brother gifted it to me once)
The mig-23ML and F-4S are great planes in it themselves, but are in a bit of an awkward spot in the matchmaker at the moment where they will still get majority uptiers into F-16/MiG-29 competition.
If the F-15/Su-27 really are coming this next update, then the highest BR might go up and so the 11.3s might get more downtiers, making them much better pickups.
They MIGHT go on sale during the new years sales so that's also worth waiting for.
They also both get access to radar missiles which you might not have used, but there are plenty of guides online as to how to use them.
(Again I don't have these planes but I have their techtree equivalents)
A6M5 ko to R2Y2 is not a bad idea. I personally haven't flown the R2Y2 that much but they seem pretty solid (the first two are sidegrades of each other and the last one is the best).
I had skipped them initially cuz it wasn't necessary to get all of them to get to the next rank, so I just went down the lines that had vehicles at rank 6.
With how the .50cals are currently underperforming, the R2Y2s might actually be the best japanese rank 5 fighters.
@@CatWerfer thank you, though I’d say that I can already use radar missiles rather decently (at least in test flight)
Those KDs are quite something! How would you describe your play style for jets? I’m an old dog trying to learn some new tricks 😂
Thanks!
It's a bit difficult to give a one-size-fits-all answer to that question, really depends on what I'm playing.
Of course, there is a good base of skills that apply to all planes that come with experience.
I'm planning to do more videos on other underrated planes that people haven't covered much, as well as general gamesense guides that can hopefully explain this better.
Any particular vehicle you'd like me to cover?
8:28 i got f5c but i prefer playing props for me its more fun an i dont need to look around for missles
bro about the event challenges ,... I completed a challenge that was giving abut 100 GE and 12hr premium time and when i completed that challenge i got nothing even though it said 'completed' any idea why that happened?
I don't know... I don't think that's happened to me before.
At the same time, I'm not aware of any event challenges that just straight up give you GE and premium time, so without more info I can't really help you out.
Do you mean the battlepass challenges, where getting to certain levels gives you premium time/etc?
You only get the free rewards for those unless you pay for the battlepass (2500GE)
Don't sleep on the F4C, if you play it right it is a monster, even in a 9.7 - 10.7 game
My dude i have a free ace in it it is my most played plane
The American zero used to be broken af when the 20’s shot slower back in like 2018. Now, it is mid af
probably for the best, if it used to be broken
Getting a talsmen on was f5e is the best decision i ever made
That is indeed the real gigachad move
The best tactic to grinding is to just grind a coupon for an event vehicle and sell it for gold. Spend gold for premium time. I prefer getting one day premium when I have the free time to grind for a day. With this tactic I spaded the whole Swedish air tree and spent less than 5k gold for it.
nice, that is indeed the fast-track for grinding without paying money
4k hours in this game and i didn’t know about the direct line research bonus negating the rank penalty
Gaijin doesn't make things very clear for us players... probably on purpose... but now you know!
I was wondering how long it took you to grind a tech tree ( in real life no just game time) as I’m like u i don’t play premium
Hmmm, I can't quite say universally for all trees. I only consider actively grinding starting rank 5 so everything before that I don't count too much but for small jet trees like japan, france, sweden, I'd say the grind thru rank 5 to 8 I think took around 3 months or longer...
Bigger main techtrees I didn't keep track of so I can't say for sure but definitely much longer.
Yeah it took me about 2 months to get to br 5.0 in the USA tech tree, but then again I have had experience in war thunder before I was forced to start again so I probably agree with you saying that it took you about 3 months
What does “track” and “launch” on RWR means? Just got to top tier but i haven’t see this before… also, does aim9j lock people by front?
RWR track means that someone has you (or someone near you) locked and can see where you are. RWR launch means that someone has fired a radar-guided missile towards you.
AIM-9J is a rear aspect only missile so only can detect heat signatures from behind the plane.
There are a lot of good guides on RUclips that people have made for this if you're curious. I would personally recommend Tim's Variety and Jaek who has done comprehensive videos on missiles, radars, RWRs, and other weapon systems.
@@CatWerfer oh thx, I’m definitely going to watch those lol, top tier seems like a different game. i have some hundreds of hours but still reallly lost 😅
yeah, its funny how gaijin implements all this stuff and its up to the player to figure out how everything works. no official guides or tutorials, we have to look up stuff from ccs ourselves, which i find kinda dumb from a game development standpoint...
same as a F2P i also made a vid on it xD, nice vid mate, a new sub from me!
Thanks, I'll be sure to check ur stuff out!
I dont think any plane is bad. Some are just worse but you can still performe, i have a kd of 2-3 in both the j34 and the j32b so its still doable
Thats a very respectable perspective. You CAN make most planes work, even if they don't have any guns *cough arado B-2* but the issue I have with calling all planes good is that especially when I'm giving advice to newer players, I don't want them to get into the mindset of "I'm doing bad because I suck" when they might be playing a vehicle that has an extremely steep learning curve.
If the swede rank 6 jets work for you though that's great!
I've personally found them rather lackluster compared to what other nations have to offer around that battlerating, and with realshatter being back, the Swedish Akan 30mms are horribly underperforming (I dump like half my ammo into an F3D and they only die later from crasahing in my J29A video).
It's just that while it's doable for skilled pilots like you, it may not be so much for less experienced players.
You have my respect. I have spaded every single Swedish plane and got around 2.5-4 KDA with everything except the 109 G6 Erla and the J34 which sit around 1.5 KDA. Even the bombers were more fun and effective in air rb than the J34. Absolute pos jet, the J32 felt like a UFO after it.
What about farming silver lions on free account? I have this problem, at high tiers
That is an issue, but it has gotten easier since they implemented the roadmap. There's not really a go to way that I grind for silver lions, I used to do the 10 kill wagers in ground rb a lot but I stopped doing them since I have a fair few premium planes that I got from battlepass and warbknds that like to fly out just for fun and they're good enough at making sl that if I buy most vehicles during sl sales, I can usually not have to think about it too much
@@CatWerfer thanks, wagers really can gelp
This is huge tip
Buy premium account as 180days when the sale 50% off
Also buy Premium vehicle over RankIV
Then you could grind it really faster and get lots of silverlions
you missed the point of my video...
did you read the title?
If you buy a premium vehicle dont buy anything over 10.7 otherwise you will encounter jets that are far better than you (trust me you dont want to fight Su 27 in a F4) J35 xs is really fun if you like sweden (they will likely get the legacy hornet if it drops)
I'm guessing this is a recommendation for other people, not me. While it can seem spooky going up against f15s in an F4, I personally don't find the F-4J, F-4EJ, MiG-23MLD, Su-25T, Mirage F1C, or any of the other techtree equivalents to the premiums that bad to play, but for newbies I suppose it's not the best choice to make. Idk I probably won't buy any high tier premiums any time soon.
I had four more planes to get to f-15. I spent a bunch of money before I went insane😭
Hahaha all war thunder players go insane one way or another my brother
if people just learned to bank scores, and not camp airfields, the games would be longer and give much more exp to most players. sadly its typically not posible at high ranks after br10ish.
One crazy wholesome moment I had while playing before was that me and a buddy were in Bf109K-4s and we had killed most of the enemies but there was one F7F left. My buddy was stock so I suggested in all chat that we could just farm ground targets for points and time multiplier.
They agreed and even after I did a dumb and crashed leaving my buddy alone, they were very respectful and they just farmed ground targets next to each other until the timer ran out...
Probably not the way gaijin intended us to play the game, but you could imagine a world where everyone decided to agree to farm ground targets (or cap points in ground realistic)
I do like to play rier one from time to time just sow i can get easy kils and suchs when i had bad tier 4 matches and iam also not too tier it goes some what slower if u do 2 nations add once and especily because i go for the helicopters sow i need to have tier v planes and tanks xd
I understand going for 2 nations slows progress but I do genuinely think it's better to get better at the game before getting higher rank vehicles and playing different nation exposes you to a lot of different playstyles
I some how the the p51 prem for USA and I used it just to make money and it was rough
The d10? I don't have it but I heard it was good or something
@@CatWerfer it’s decent it’s just rough when u get stuck with 3 people on ur 6, it’s a fast plane but because ur min fuels 30 mins you get stuck being the slowest and sluggish
Haha yeah I know the US midtier prop experience too well
This problem was much worse 6 months ago
Yep its good to see the roadmap implemented
I think honestly with the type of game this is you should just save up and buy a 10-10.7 tier prem I UNDERSTAND THEIR IS A LEARN CURVE AND EVERYONE HATES THIS. But if you really want high tier quickly go through the pain of being shit on get better and slowly grind a full nation then tailsmen a tech tree vehicle use it a lot and finish the rest of the nation, that’s how I grounded china got a5 went through the process then got j7e if you want to see my kd with those jets to see the learning process check my account it’s on my videos it’s just proof you can do well buying a prem to start just don’t give up and you’ll be fine 👍
I recommend f5c j35xs a5 any higher definitely is too high of a skill difference
well im glad it worked out for you
I have almost 400 hours on FTP and I'm around 5.0-6.0 on ground with the US, Germany, and Soviets and around 3.0 air on Germany, Soviets, France, and Japan and it's been a hell of a grind. But I can attest, just play nations that you want, even if they aren't meta or good. Prioritize fun. It makes you want to play more and thus you'll earn more.
Honestly, I wish I was you. I’ve completely finish every single tech tree, ground and air, with the exclusion of naval. I don’t have fun with WT anymore.. there’s nothing left for me at this point. Sometimes I just want a new account and that fun I had at low tier, not having to worry about buying premium time and whatnot. I miss that.
This video in a nutshell: don't be poor and get good
*or
I mean i bought a premium tank that i never used lol air was a different story
ground grind do be a lot worse
@@CatWerfer no like I bought the t34 100 premium but barely used it cuz I didn’t understand the benefits so I got to top tier ground without reallly using it I bought it because I thought it looked cool XD
@@CatWerfer and then for air I bought the mig23 ml but I was up to the mig 21’s so I only got it later on in my grind
Ah I see, t34 100 does look pretty cool
@@CatWerfer yea I’ve been playing for years ad I bought that a long time ago I actually can’t remember when 😂 I think I was About 2 months into the game when I bought it I think it was just before they added Sweden I think Got into the game during advancing storm but I first downloaded it in the assault back in 2017
NILERED?
"Today I will be making a nuclear bomb in my War Thunder hangar"
wowowow 21 FPS!!!!!!!
did my frames drop that bad?
I did for like 2 seconds
Im sorry, but I don't see the fun in playing the same vehicle for months and not beeing able to progress effectively. They have designed the game around making in game purchases
I'm well aware of the fact that gaijin practically forces premium time/vehicle purchases. I'm just saying that I managed to find fun in mainly trying different vehicles out and spading them each, and that with enough skill, I was able to progress pretty far (or at least farther than I thought I would be able to). I would guess that buying atop tier premium would mean just playing that top tier premium for research, which I think would be rather boring...
@@CatWerfer there are definitely some interesting vehicles throughout, the tech trees, I just dont have the time and nerves to play without premium time 😅
Yeah, that's understandable
Want golden eagles?
Want golden eagles for free?
You can have em
Download the app and complete easy tasks
Use my code to get ten extra golden eagles
(I enjoy a lot of the CCs that get sponsored by the app but I personally cannot recommend using it)
so its almost impossible
Well thats for you to decide for yourself
keep the 0 vehicle in israel haha
Just play simulator bomber
thats an option too, im just not very good at sim (skill issue)
do EVENTS or you wont be good
well doing them certainly helps at getting higher br stuff but I wouldn't say playing them will make you better necessarily
@@CatWerfer i got swedish tank and su25 bm from doing event
@@Enteropy23 Yeah same now I just gotta figure out if I wanna keep em or sell em
@@CatWerfer sell then get premium time
@@Enteropy23 that would be the smart thing to do...
The warthunder grind is horrible the RUclips one is worse
I'm a youtube newbie but I'm having fun :)
Here is the best hint: Don't
