  • I hope you like the series as much as I like making it.
    This second video is about map knowledge and how you can use a simple concept to help you learn them and become more efficient in your games.
    The aim is to show you how to easily learn the maps for you to focus more on what the ennemy is doing rather than where you are moving. As I say in the video, the map skeleton can be applied to every single map, apart from some exceptions. Feel free to try each cap route for each map, find the one you love the most, or the one on which you have the most success and just practice it !
    Also, don't forget to use sound cues to really improve drastically at the game.

    I feel like this game is a whole lot of luck and a whole lot of situational awareness

      Situational Awareness, yes, definitely, luck also but a lot less than SA. You can basically avoid death 9 times out of 10 just thanks to how aware you are of your surroundings.

    My friend once said: "People on war thunder take their tank's armour for granted... Never NEVER take it for granted. Bragging about how "impenetrable" your tank is the equivalent of labeling the Titanic as unsinkable.

    It's my biggest problem in the game, I tend to rush directly to the cap points without paying attention to my environment and taking advantage from it and then I got destroyed very easily. And every match I repeat the process like an idiot... But this video with the route advice is very useful !
    D'ailleurs excellent accent anglais pour un français, je suis impressionné !

    Karelia is my favorite map so far probably because I found a great spot on it whenever I spawn in the northern side of the map I just spawn on the left side and then there's a hill there you can snipe people of early game

    • @Spido68_the_spectator
      @Spido68_the_spectator 2 года назад

      Yes, but south has one spot to counter it brilliantly. I have seen used once by a goddamn M10 that killed me twice... i couldn't hit him.
      I got one or 2 great games at that northern spot, but at higher BR it looses effectiveness and you have 36 people shooting at you

    As a new player your success in a match comes down to luck as much as anything else, because the fact is no matter what tactics you use your going to come up against high ranking player's (Marshall's, ect) with there "expert crew's" who will always have an overwhelming advantage over you no matter how you play, unfortunately it's not a level playing field for the novice!

    is there any mods that change the mini-map?, the mini maps in war thunder are dogshit at showing important information, to say the least, every map has a different grid value for some dump reason and it does not show where forests, rocks, and treelines are, also it does not do as good of a job as one would like of showing inclination
