Thank you for all the positive comments! I will definitely make a part 2 in the near future. A couple of things to note: At 12:52 I said there were 6 Italian planes, which is not true. If you include the bombers, there are 13. If you want to go into free-view mode in the hangar (15:10), you can press Alt F2 if you have an Nvidia graphics card.

[@ygorschuma3059]

*By the way you didn't cover nor list some stuff, so here goes, some of these were tested and confirmed by me in custom battles with friends:* If you are holding the Alt key on the minimap, you can zoom in and out by scrolling your mousewheel If you are spectating someone, the Insert and Delete keys zoom in and out respectively and Pg Up and Pg Down changes the spectator target If your Fuel Tank is on fire, you can actually drown it by shoving your engine on the water, it will extinguish the fire Disabling the Stabilizers on some tanks does actually help, in the Mk3/Mk7 Centurions, if you pivot turn with the Stabs off, the turret will turn at the speed of the hull, which makes it easier for shooting players around you without waiting for the whole turret to turn, this also goes for fast vehicles such as the Kpz/MBT-70 and others. HEAT-FS shells deals more damage by creating more spalling if it hits the Turret Ring or any module on the tank Tank modules does have armour, but you can only see the armor values of the cannon breach, which is around +400mm If your commander gets knocked out, the gunner will take his place and the american voice will (apparently) change If you're playing with an american tank and load HESH, the commander will say "Load HEP", this is because in the US, HESH (High-Explosive Squash Head) shells are called HEP (High-Explosive, Plastic) For some reason 500kg bombs can't kill an IS-2 unless it falls directly over or under it Crew members can ricochet lighter shells such if they have high enough vitality and the shell doesen't penetrate with as much energy (such as penetrating the frontal armor plate of the King Tiger with a Centurion's APDS shot) When you are repairing, the cranking noises you hear are actually for some reason your driver automatically shifting gears front and neutral. You can bind a key to turn off your engine on tanks You can kill yourself by ammo racking an enemy tank If you destroy the Drakon/Raketenjagdpanzer ATGM Launcher, it can actually still fire for some odd reason There's a chance that if you hit said vehicles above and the Calliope launchers rockets, they'll explode violently like an ammo rack, but externally, and (in the case of the Calliope Launcher) will hurt/kill other players around, friend or enemies. HEAT-FS shells will not overpenetrate any soft target, however, if you shoot wooden/metal poles and thin targets, the metal jet will actually keep going forward despite you're clearly seeing the shell exploding, and will act as another HEAT-FS shell if it hits another vehicle.

The funniest thing it doesn't perform very well at 7.7 especially when it gets full uptier to 8.7, then just R.I.P. Even it's not that fast at 7.7-8.7

[@MJRSoap]

@@mixderman2461 Hey remember when the french actuall put stabalizers on their MBT's? Me niether since they never actually did. The AMX-30 Super was a modernization of the AMX-30 by GERMANS that got scrapped since no one wanted to modernize them. The AMX-32 and AMX-40 were never produced or sold with stabilizers according to GIAT and the AMX-32 was never actually produced only having 6 prototypes. As for the Leclerc the gun isn't even stabilized, the whole fucking turret is. It's almost as if Gajin belives the jokes about France actually being incompetent at war and is biased against France being decent. Also they nerfed the 100 and 120mm guns silently in an update. They dropped 30mm of pen on both of them, 300mm on the 100mm gun to 270mm of pen. With no BR or Repair changes it actually bade them unable to pen a large number of tanks and they still can't as it hasn't been reverted.

[@kamikazekalamari]

@@MJRSoap I mean, their entire tree nearly consist of prototypes or lend-lease tanks.

[@LuisGutierrezG123]

That fact about pointing people in the map really blew my mind I always press M and waste a lot of time

[@bravomike4734]

Some more ideas. Turning off the stabilizer can allow a tank to shoot lower than its depression by shooting while the gun depresses while braking and vice versa. Powerful enough rockets can destroy your own propeller if u are too close to the ground. Some british tanks like Chieftain's two piece ammo projectile are immune to blowing up since its only a projectile without propellant or gunpowder. Shooting MG on a dead tank's black husk can make on fire and open the hatches if it hadn't already before. Shooting the dead tank's husk that didn't despawn with MG and cannon both can make them blow up and despawn if they were blocking your way (inconsistent tho but I'm pretty sure those were players who left the match because the tanks had been there for minutes not seconds). Tanks can get dustier, muddier or snowier depending on terrain. Armour degradation is definitely a thing in the game but its very hard to notice because u can't see the hp of the enemy's armor plate degrading. Superficial structural steel boxes or turret cloths can be damaged on tanks by surviving an enemy round or by being shot with an HE round. You can die from a ricocheted shell and from explosion of nearby tank's ammo rack. Shooting something very fast with an inferior SPAA gun can lead to some rounds bypassing enemy armour on the sides (inconsistent and more likely to be a bug). Using simulator gunner's aim introduces parallax effect while aiming. Enemy tanks can be damaged by extreme ramming or stepping. If the armor being shot is both moving and rotating, it can drastically reduce penetration chances (inconsistent).

[@skDoger]

Thank you very much!

If you turn the stabilizer off, you can use the hull to make the gun turn faster (by turning the hull in the same direction). May be useful in an emergency. Also, sometimes crew members still die and modules get damaged when you run into objects with tanks like the ASU-57. Not sure what causes it.

[@Xerroxify]

Also turning off stabilizer gives possibility to use brakes to exceed normal gun depression. ASU-57 is very light spg and It's normal for it to be damaged by anything.

5:34 killed a tank this way. The enemy was Conway. 300 meters away. With Tiger II. Driving at full speed in the desert.

[@WhackingJam]

Smoke shells fired from a launcher can also kill enemies, but so far i've only killed a gaz truck lol, Smoke canister hit gunner on the head😂

[@honeybadgeractual5734]

because smoke is actually a white phosphorus round, it should also count as a chemical weapon that damages any non sealed tank crew. as the airborne phosphorus combines with moisture in the eyes, lungs, and on the skin to create phosphoric acid.

11:04 You can no longer get the hammer and sickle as a separate decal. Why ? Still trying to figure that out. I pretty much got scammed, bought this thing just for the decal and now I won't get it.

Subbed! Can't wait for Part 2!

I had no idea about the catalina thing. Good video man!

[@spygineer1076]

the hull-mounted machine gun always works, for instance, when the commander dies the co-driver will shoot the machine gun when you press the button

[@skDoger]

Not for most tanks. For example, the Shermans, Panthers and T-34s all have hull-mounted machine guns, but none of them can be fired.

[@spygineer1076]

@@skDoger i mostly play german tanks, it works on them...also add the fact that ihaven't played war thunder in 2 months so i don't know if that changed

[@jbperrinnl]

Fun fact: yes, the French air tech tree has no biplane. But did you know that the US one didn't have any either for a long time. Indeed, the F3-F2 wasn't considered by the game as a biplane (so you couldn't really use it for any event or achievement requiring one, such as the French "dork" decal from WWI).

Rain also has weather effects, as clouds produce them meaning some areas can “clear up”. Also, the rain Makes sounds on your canopy!

[@adamreynolds2372]

Did the smoke shell with my churchill 1 using the hull gun. Panzerjager 1 through himself off a cliff in front of me and I shot three smoke shells into him, third killed all his crew in one go. Nice addition.

[@WhackingJam]

Oh wow I didn't know water cleans bushes😂 then again my bushes are too high to clean without drowning lmao

Ka 50 is like lizard it can drop a tail when scared but still can run away

[@pokemanpaul8284]

The bracketed letters on the German captured tanks aren’t exclusively for captured tanks, just tanks with foreign origin like the Pz 38(t), regardless if they were captured or not. The Hetzer and the 38(t) were imported from Slovakia after the German invasion in WW2

2:13 I thought that was bf4 af first 😭

[@Frankabyte]

3:23 That's got to be the best pilot I've ever seen!

[@gazlink1]

You can use rear facing machine guns on some tanks. Check out the SMK, and for maximum wtf, the KV2 ZiS-6. Now that's a challenge to use/get a kill with. You can also crush some vehicles, mainly those with hull break I think.

[@predattak]

You can change your Thermal Vision coloration from white to green or red.

[@skDoger]

Thank you for the cool fact!
