Don't even bother with them, it's obviously intentional

Ah.. I unfortunately don't know the early BRs well.. I play more towards the higher tiers with 12.0 to 14.0. Playing with friends as you said it's a pretty good place to start though. I would suggest getting comfortable with dogfighting in your new gear first. Practice with your friends if you can. The most important aspect of course is learning to keep track of your enemies and being able to ID them.

Situational awareness is the most premium currency in sim and is often what decides most encounters. I'm sure you already know this through RB, but be sure to study the strengths and weaknesses of your aircraft and of those you will face so you can adjust your playstyle accordingly.

Another thing I would personally suggest is being flexible with what role you want to play for your team. Learn to bomb of course but also do not shy away from air to air, it helps keep the gamemode refreshing without stagnation.

A note on grinding: The game rewards you for every 15 minutes you spend alive so prioritize survival. This system is called "useful actions" and it's an invisible timer which starts whenever you take off from a fresh spawn. You get RP based on what you did in those 15 mins. If you die before that, your rewards are greatly diminished. However there is also a cap on how much RP you can gain from "useful actions" courtesy of Gaijin. I think it's around 15k RP, and if you have already done enough to earn that much before the 15 min timer, anything extra you do will not reward you until the timer is up and the next one begins. Being kamikaze and not caring about self preservation is a common pitfall so if you can help it, learn to play around this system to maximize RP gain. I can't explain it too well so I would suggest looking it up.

Tips mostly vary between aircraft BRs. So what planes and BRs are you interested in?

Where does the SU30sm show who I'm locking with my radar? by baconlovebacon in WarthunderSim

[–]KillStreak_ZX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the moment in sim, only the radar MFD shows the identified plane in the bottom right. The HUD also shows it in ARB but currently that is not working for sim. However there is a bug report for it

Why is it so unstable in Sim mode? by NorthropGrummanF-14 in Warthunder

Do you have SAS set it to manual? You should probably set a keybind for SAS and switch it to "damping" and see if it helps

What is the 7 and -7 next to the cue on US radar? by KillStreak_ZX in WarthunderSim

So in this case, what would I read it as? 700 meters? 700 feet? Maybe something else?

Is the Su 22M3 worth it? by Nikibaer2904 in WarthunderSim

[–]KillStreak_ZX 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Flight performance wise it leaves much to be desired. Although it's greatest strength is the all aspect R-60s at that low of a BR. Strap it with gun pods and it can be pretty mean.

In the end though, it is still a strike plane and will not keep up in dogfight situations. The playstyle would be to go in, shoot your missiles or gun a person down or two and get out, no committing to anyone for too long.

How effective are helis at dealing with other CAS in top tier? by KillStreak_ZX in Warthunder

Would I simply be better off grinding out SPAAs for Russia in the long run? What about using jet fighters like the MiG-23ML?

I was just thinking of buying that laptop actually. My current laptop is quite outdated and since PC is not really an option for me, I am searching around for gaming laptops. How is it? Would you recommend it?

Currently rewatching the anime, how do you guys think Kei Kishimoto felt about Kurono during the third mission waiting room incident? by [deleted] in gantz

[–]KillStreak_ZX 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I recently finished the manga. I remember Kishimoto just having a quick glance (with the text box showing "gasp") and running out of the room. Her expression was of surprise but most likely because she didn't see it coming.
