After years and years... after they anounced in the vid explaining spotting mechanics they will post this vid... *its finally here!*

[@patropro]

And now the video about how shells move inside your vehicle.

[@Breakdancingsquirrel]

There was a video about that in 2012

[@xxenorr8413]

Finally!!. Is bush mechanics at part 2 ??

[@omgabaddon]

@@Splina. Doesn't work, it doesn't explain exact numbers for bush camouflage. We know they aren't solid and you can still spot someone behind a bush even if it's not transparent, I want to know how much camo it gives me exactly. Nothing better than knowing how far I can push my HT up the hill in prokhorovka before the guys in front of me can see me.

[@Cadadadry]

I remember reading there are two classes of bush, long time ago : light and full. How do I know which class is the one I'm in ? I don't, as no example was ever published AFAIK...

[@vaclav169]

yay finally, but remeber folks part 2 incoming in 5 years

Finally! Game mechanics explaintation. Like in WoWs. Good Job!

[@WorldOfTanksOfficialChannel]

What do you know about concealment? Tell us!

[@matuszelenak6503]

it doesnt work on many maps (broken bushes on prokhorovka hill, fishermans bay mid etc)

[@stefanmonroe8548]

bigger tanks do not necessarily have lower static camo factor.

[@seonruiz4835]

I have extreme camo on my bc12t.

[@crusher8159]

The introduction of tier x light tanks makes players to let go of the idea of concealment. Except Swedish TDs

[@mohdfaizal6773]

It's broken on console. As there is lag spikes n n display error

Finally you have updated it

[@thundervibe]

This is not " the time" .. it's been long overdue . But finally it's here.....

[@sonicfan2004]

*Small tip:* You could make the game more beginner friendly by integrating such videos into the Boot Camp. If a beginner has watched the whole thing completely, he'll get a camo net for free. I know that this is regulated in Minsk and not by you, but you could recommend it to them or something. :)

[@voltigore]

The destroyed enemies are sure to appreciate it: "reported cheater! unfair plane!"

[@larevuegaming]

After all years Finally . Just Thank You Wargaming !!!

[@benjihuh927]

we finally have a new explaining mechanics video! Please do more!

[@blackroan6172]

Please explain spall liners more clearly.

[@CIoudStriker]

As someone who likes to play derp heavies, I second this.

[@misterdayne2792]

Doesn't it already explain itself? 10% less stun when hit, 50% protection versus HE and from crew damage, right?

[@Darren_v]

Spall liner increases the armor you got against HE/HESH, so for example someone hits you on your 200mm upperplate the (heavy) spall liner will increase your armor by 50% (percentage depends on what type of spall liner) on the spot you got hit BUT this is only affective if you get hit by HE/HESH. If the HE/HESH shell penetrates it will do full dmg (NO REDUCTION EVEN WITH A SPALL LINER!). So in short: it's more useful on heavy armored tanks like the Maus, Type 5, T95. Although I do not recommend using a spall liner as it isn't really effective.

[@kelogorn]

@@Darren_v It's pretty useful on some tanks, for example i use one on my Tortoise together with a premium med pack, which gives +65 % protection to my crew, which in practice means that i barely ever lose crew members and dont even have to use med pack. Plus the stun duration reduction is nice as well, although it's not that much.

[@randymotter51]

@@kelogorn Definitely, Once I manage to unlock some of the slower, heavier vehicles a spall liner will be choice equipment given all the artillery nonsense and derp guns. Even non derp HE spam from tanks that cant pen your angled armor will be mitigated a bit, and big heavy vehicles need all the survivability they can get. I would honestly give up vents for it.

[@piggy6394]

This video is good. Can't wait for part 2

[@JoelMuddlestone]

5 years of playing this game then l finally find out that we only have to apply camo paint on the hull. Turret and gun camo only for aesthetic value! This is the most useful 13 minutes l've spent on KZbin!

[@cosmintirlea7095]

I don't want to be negative, but they've said this when they reworked camo patterns and added paints.

[@silentscorn5072]

I know all of them but I still watch them. Keep up the good work!

[@portentouslad5051]

HOLY YES FINALLY! Now put this video series in the game client and give people a little gift for watching it to the end.

[@scobbydoo773]

Been waiting for this video along long long time. Thanks. Don't wait so long for the next video.

[@missq4024]

This video should be uploaded a long time ago, very useful

[@darkman3530]

[@justpolee]

Amazing video!! Waiting for the second part! 😍

[@mark3863]

Thank you, really helpful info.

[@petarvidovic2025]

hey WG, finally you are doing this, and you need to do a lot more videos that explain mechanics in game, cuz i think that only above avarage players know this and we found infromation ourselfs i know just from few friends tha play that even avarage players dont have firm grasp on BASIC machanics you should include explaining mechanics in battle training (tutorial) and not just teach how to point gun in general direction of target and pres left mouse button

[@epiqai208]

"Light tanks have above average view range" *Looks at T-100 LT, which has less view range than some Tier VIII heavies*

[@Kzaerlol]

And IS7 with decent crew skills will easily have max view range

[@majstealth]

@@Kzaerlol well it is a russian tank, wait some months and it got an autoloader too..^^

[@pancakebeast7368]

It's been 84 years (since realease), and they finally explain mechanics. GG

[@asfairos0075]

we waited so many years but you have finally releashed it thank you !!! now...is it possible to impement this video inside the game ? it would so much usefull for new players

finally.... a camo tutorial for the new players

Useful as always!

plssss make more of this kind

[@OliverWalker1]

"In general, use your head before a battle stars..." Yeah, tell that to them

[@MAMRA]

Very nice explaining

[@DoomTurtle1]

It be nice if you put these kind of videos ingame for starting players to learn as part of the tutorial and reward them with cammo for watching and practicing em

[@Snowcatsrt]

Great video! But please WG put these videos inside the client so that players who don't watch KZbin have a chance to see this

[@JohnBlack93istaken]

Nice video, my question is about bush size and how it influences cammo depending on your vehicle size

[@Filipas-el9sp]

this video should have been uploaded 5 years ago... I struggled myself for 2 years to learn those mechanics perfectly...

[@CruelViper88]

I hope it get's explained in the next part how I sometimes still get spotted while I'm hiding behind a bush.

[@jessevonk2836]

Finally!

[@williambenedictalava2634]

This will help the new tank commanders in the game.

[@Without3]

Oh my god that battle at the start of the video...i rember how it was the game, i start in 2012 too... i really miss that time... :'(

[@SirSidley]

Finally guidance which should be part of tuition before you meet the Big BOys :)

Pefect!!!!!!! NOW MAKEVideos FOR ALL GAME MECHANIC,and add them in the IN game Tutorial!!!!! Good Job

[@skwayzer]

Oh now I get how it works, I didn't know how it was possible to not spot an O-I in the middle of the town 300 meters away from me without any bush or camo net or camo on him. It all makes sense now. I am ILLUMINATED! :O

[@BenjiBoyOfficial]

Good video!

[@mw2mastersash]

About time

[@raunaqgupta33]

didnt know that applying camo on turret and gun has no effect. literally wasted so many paints -_-

The sense of your own greatness will overwhelm you :P

[@MrLi85]

Thats is good video for platrs ho start game and thy ho had played long time. Bacik need to be remember. But you forget that 50m all will be spottes ratius.. but good and great work !!

[@stevankho8702]

i love the BGM at 0:46

[@rihardsrancans2987]

This needs to be in game, not mainly in yt, cuz if player would like to learn and this stuff isn't in game they will definitely go on and learn from another players (yt, twitch, etc.) and wail it maybe good, it makes your game look bad for not giving proper tutorial to new players and some of players maybe not be so eager to go and learn if it is not available in game.

[@pmm5378]

You say « next Time we will speak about bushes .... » but get down with your fake bushes on Fishermans bay for example wg

[@vencabisshop]

Ještě by chtělo aby ty funkce toho maskování čas od času fungovaly a bude to super :3

[@otherplans427]

These should be in tutorial missions for new players, btw. Right after you nerf Type prem ammo, do something to tanks and stock guns that rely on prem ammo in general to work (t-54 to pz II Js and the like) and make the global prem ammo changes you need for this game to not be so p2w

[@grigorescunicolae3150]

great video . Now make it part of the tutorial and give a camo net (maybe) for watching to any new player .

[@DeepMagas]

good video

[@Thy_Guardian]

Oh I didn't about the exact % when you move ect.. Thx that will help me

[@BratuB]

Why are the Type 4 Heavy and Type 5 Heavy still in the game ?

[@TheIllio]

I don't mind them being in the game, but I do mind derp guns in general being in the game.

So, the best tip you give me, ' play the game and never shoot ' =)

[@lukasitarica2706]

What happents when you hit granade with granade?

[@TheIllio]

Is that even possible in the game?

[@dominikaga4049]

Pretty much nothing

[@OliverXRed]

Can you explain bushes more in depth, because it is not known by many that different bushes gives different amount of camo bonus.

[@lukas.smital]

Still waiting for video where damage of HE rounds is explained

[@keita3434]

I can explain a bit

[@ba-eg3cg]

How long after firing does the tank regain its "not firiing" (full) camo values? In an example, I shoot, dont get spotted and how long should i wait before further action to have again my full camo values? Same question for the movment, If i stop, do i get my full camo values imediatelly or after certian time? Thanks for answer.

[@tomznavz1887]

They should put this explaning mechanics in ingame. Alot of pubnoobs doesnt even check this things on youtube.. we have to force them to watch this kind of things then get a reward after watching it..

[@hionmaiden663]

So this is why A Rhm with full crew camo; BiA, camo net active, with camo on the vehicle & behind bushes which has not fired gets spotted, but the 50TP Pr next to the Rhm does not!!

[@Apocalypse0505hun]

Actually sometimes the smaller vehicle isn't the stealthier in bushes... Some bushes they call "fake bushes" like in fisherman's bay centra... but the reality is that, if you look closer the lower part of the bushes are blank. Its like little trees. And if you know, the spotting areas of a vehicle, then you will know what i mean. But let me explain... So if the vehicle has a low profile, those spotting areas are lower compared to the heavy, and if they are seen trough those blank spots on the bush, then yeah, you will be spotted.

[@pixl3l]

Hard to have questions when there is another part coming, or is that not made yet and you want to know what people wonder about maybe? Well here is one, more of a statement then a question though, how come you did not mention max spotting distance (445 m) and how it works if the view range of a tank is over this distance and it actually helps with spotting.

[@Apocalypse0505hun]

Great video. Still learned something. Btw what is the name of the song from 10:17?

[@humphrey10-88]

Question: how long does it take for you to regain camo after firing your gun?

[@Apocalypse0505hun]

About 3-5 seconds.

[@middelpunt8703]

What about the seven visibility checkpoints and two view range ports?

[@eliemoimoi]

Thanx you for leaking the new grand battle map at 10:57 👌😉
