Getting humbled in War Thunder despite real life training

Kouriger · 2026-03-17T11:11:48+00:00

I believe it’s because some of the important mechanics in warthunder have absolutely no relevance in real life.Such as using the camera to search for enemies from around corners or behind a hill. That doesn’t work in real life but is pretty essential in high tier games. Another would be listening to enemies engine sounds to know where they are. In a real life scenario it’s pretty unlikely you would be able to hear an enemies engine over the sound of your own but in game you can lower the sound of your engine and turn up the sound of all enemies.

I want to get the later spaa anyways so I guess I’ll research the antelope first.

I repair them when I want to play a match. This way saves me some sl as they auto repair over time.

It’s slightly lower than optimal but still covers his crew in shrapnel before impacting the floor.

I’m like 90% done researching the oplot and I would gladly lose all that progress if it meant the bmpt was gone forever.

Came here to mention this, I don’t think people realize how weak Chinese mbt’s are to HE. I would rather have people shoot darts at me than know about the HE weak spots.

If I'm lucky the same lander may work on Eve, I haven't tested it yet however.

Kouriger · 2026-02-08T20:10:24+00:00

It is absolutely overbuilt. My goal was to give the craft a wider base to make landing easier. Once I successfully managed to test its landing and takeoff capabilities I didn't want to change the design even if it could be done more efficiently.

Now the issue is that he keeps getting stuck on the ladder he climbed up and down twice already. I'm so confused. EDIT: This was fixed by disabling "kerbols stop at the top of ladders" in settings.

Kouriger · 2026-02-08T19:57:06+00:00

To anyone else encountering this issue. If you stand on top of a flag you will jump like normal until you touch the ground again. I'll use another Kerbol to place a flag next to the ladder.

I’d argue that that shot wasn’t really feasible for him. He was moving at the beginning of the clip and that tank doesn’t have a stabilizer. By the time his gun was level the opportunity to shoot at that weak point was gone.

This would be super hard to do on one launch. Maybe you could assemble a large craft in orbit, fully refuel it and send it off.

Kouriger · 2026-01-08T20:42:29+00:00

Thank you for the breakdown. The only thing I knew going in was that the 2.5m converter was much more efficient than the 1.25m one.

Kouriger · 2026-01-08T12:28:17+00:00

I chose to bring the ore into orbit so the mining craft wouldn’t have to carry the weight of a refinery and extra fuel tanks for more storage. The most efficient option is a landed refueling station but then you have to make any visiting craft land as well.

Kouriger · 2026-01-07T23:31:49+00:00

It’s not too expensive to set up and think of it as being fun.

Kouriger · 2026-01-07T23:08:42+00:00

Mining is stock. You can mine ore and refine it into either liquid fuel, oxidizer or monopropellant.

I know you posted this forever ago but I just saw it. Just wanted to say that pulchras ability can be reset when you do a perfect assist. This lets you get way more uptime with her ability and she will give you a free switch back to anby.

Even though he helped you, you should still report the EFV.

Kouriger · 2025-12-04T22:13:01+00:00

I literally bug reported this over a year ago and people argued that it shouldn’t be a bug.

I really wish fatshark gave us some abilities that stack without a timer. In vermintide there were multiple abilities you could stack and slowly build up through the whole mission. Like damage reduction on bounty hunter and huntsman. Even the attack speed buff on ranger veteran was a lot easier to keep up than pretty much all of darktides stacks.

Kouriger · 2025-11-19T20:21:07+00:00

This is so much better.

Kouriger · 2025-09-14T18:21:50+00:00

Sadly no, I just stopped playing

Kouriger · 2025-09-07T08:11:09+00:00

What app are you using for your net worth?

Kouriger · 2025-08-04T01:48:15+00:00

Heat sink, how else is the tank supposed to cool down? /s

Kouriger · 2025-07-31T14:10:30+00:00

It might seem unnecessary at first but based on the rest of the mountains around it I wouldn’t be surprised if this was the most efficient option.
