Can someone explain why do soviet planes (at least at lower tiers) have half an hour of turn time? Aren't they supposed to be good??? I was on one guy's 6, i shot him, ofc he doesn't die (yap for another time) and we start turning at the same second. Before i make 90 degrees, the same guy i shot is now on my six and takes me out with one round with no prior demage.
Hi all, So just a general open question really. Spawncamping is quite common in this game (especially in RB Ground) and a lot of the time this is because of poor map design. I don't understand why the snail hasn't done more about it? To be clear; I'm not talking about times when your team has captured all the caps on a map and have nothing left to do. That situation is completely justified and a normal part of gameplay. I'm referring to the times when your spawn is clearly visible from 3km away across the map and prevents your team from making any progress due to one or two players being able to shoot directly into it. So much of this can be avoided by better map design and larger "no-go" zones. I'd be interested in your thoughts!

Hello, I'm currently installing the game on PC, after having last played the game in 2017 on PlayStation. I have forgotten everything about playing the game, so I'm looking for pointers in getting started again. I only ever played arcade mode, and I'm only interested in the aerial combat side of the game. Originally, I only played as Great Britain, because I wanted to fly the legendary Spitfire, but this time I'd like to start as a different nation. Probably only considering USA, Germany or USSR. I will probably not go beyond 50s/60s.
Which of those three nations would best suit someone starting from scratch, learning a new control scheme (KB/M instead of controller), and should I be looking at any of the starter packs
I’m done with rank 7 in the american air tree and was wondering, should I start researching f16a or f15a. Which one is the best and most enjoyable.
Currently grinding the British Tech Tree in the hope of getting the Challenger Mark 2 and Desert Warrior but to get the other I have to get the warrior and Striker I want to know if I should bother crewing them or if they suck
So the ratel 20 has 2 guidance sights. The main gun sight and the launcher sight. But when the main gun sight doesn't have visual of the missile even tho I'm guiding by the launcher sight the missile loses track and slams into the ground. Please help anyone?
Hi all,
Is there any way to get the minimap after playing a game that contains the name of the aircraft (example of what I am looking for below).
Mini map with mock aircraft position data
I am thinking about doing a data science project on map positioning in WT, which would greatly speed up the process.
Thank you :)
Ever since the new update my screen would occasionally freeze and start "blinking" with a text in the corner saying "graphics driver hung and was restarted". There isn't anything wrong with my GPU (I did a driver reinstall and dxdiag which said that everything was fine) and I gotta ask, is it only me or is it happening to other people too
Jagdtiger has better mobility, very much so. Jagdtiger has leagues better armor with an mg port weakspot that's really very hard to hit while tortoise has an okay armor profile with glaring weakspots nearly everywhere and if anyone with aphe looks at your humongous cupola wrong you are done for. Jagdtiger has better penetration and on top of that it gets HE filler!! How are the tanks at the same fucking br! Make it make sense someone.
I have a really simple question does the LOSAT system on the CCVL chassis still exist irl or did it something happen to it
when i entered my CAP team was full and in like 5 minutes they all died, at this point its either getting spawn killed or just hovering around in air for a CAS…
I was trying to play from my Xbox and I wanted to connect my old PC account to my Xbox account how can I do it ? is this actually possible ?
Am i looking to wrong section here?
I’m somewhat new and on im on console too, but I pray to the snail daily.
I’m grinding out the US tree and some of Germany too for now, so I wanted to ask what US BR is the best to just have the most fun at and not try hard mode, just enjoy. I’m at 7.3 now and I keep getting up tiered like crazy.
i couldnt help but notice how p51's are stuck at 7mm except for p51D with 20mm hispano
Same as the title. I got the dev server a few days ago and don't know when it opens
I haver never played planes before, and started recently to grind the us tree, which acording to YouTube is mainly bnz fighter. In the vídeos It looked simple enougth, fligh higher, dive, shoot, but im having trouble making It work, i constantly lose Control mid dive and um not realy sure why, i tried doing some of the manouvers Ive sem but my pilot cant stand the g force and i cant figure out what o should be doing wrong. Curently using an a36 with no upgrades
Edit: It should be "having" instead of "hacking" in the tittle but my phone's autocorrector doesnt understand english
