[@jovidiantosoesilodewo9688]

..... it is very rare, but can be really trollish if combined with designated target and its directive. 17 secs of spotted time would sometimes disorient players into going to the same bush thinking they're already unspotted.

[@uronblack6513]

When he says Proximity Spotting - does he mean X-Raying?

[@southsideboyz9463]

You said something about spotting? Because there is no map left that you can spot anymore. You either changed the maps to fit only heavies, or you removed them. Maps like Studzianki and Mountain Pass, are useless now with your new changes.

[@fotorescent]

the most intriging part: the grille 15 shooting at BC25T, the tank dying in a second video... is it because the mecanic of the game made you bounce it with HEAT shell?

[@realbadcorps]

no it's because the Grille missed.

[@Guido1212]

Who calls it the X-ray? It's called proxy distance. Why talk about the ranges and leave out what they look like on the mini map? Experienced scouts choose both optics and CVS. All tank examples have zero camo installed, and no mention of how that matters.

Я считаю что оптика должна работать только когда танк двигается, так как труба работает только в неподвижном состоянии, тогда будет честно и в балансе. Либо же запретить одновременную установку этих двух модулей. Ибо слишком хитрые лт ставят и оптику, и трубу одновременно, что делает их слишком имбовыми в каких-то моментах.

"Magic shell"??? Thery're called Ghost shells and you don't have to normalize them, you have to FIX them.

[@WorldOfTanksOfficialChannel]

Ghost shells are a symptom of Client-to-server information lag. The server knows where everything is, and the client tries its best to interpret where the server says everything is, but it will always be slightly off. If the client showed everything exactly as the information comes in, tanks would jump back and forth and it wouldn't be smooth motion. - TragicLoss

[@WYL-s4r]

Why cripple paid supplies? It makes no sense.

[@Tommy_The_Gun]

4:50 "Tank Destroyers with good view range can spot target for themselves." Something like this is a huge balance problem and should not be possible at all, even if you min-max. What is worse is that some TDs can actually do it & fire while remain undetected themselves.

[@lidibird]

and how would anyone be able to perform solo in a td if that were changed? playing tds without vr feels way too team dependent; also any tank can fire unspotted with 80% camo from double bushes and ones with single bushes only need 30% moving camo

[@Tommy_The_Gun]

​@@lidibird If you have a TD like AT or Tortoise that can brawl, then no problem. If you have a "Paper" TD, then you rely of your allies and you act as a fire support. Without some one spotting for you, you should be significantly less effective. Kinda like Arty. If you are left alone in a TD in the corner of the map in a bush, then of course you are gonna spot approaching enemy 1st & shoot 1st. The problem occurs with some TDs that can min-max camo & view range so much that they can remain undetected even if there are multiple enemies approaching & shoot multiple times without "fire after bloom" making them visible. Sometimes it has more to do with bad map design, but very often some TDs themselves are problematic. And weird thing is those are mostly premium TDs that are like that. Super Hellcat, M10 RBFM, E25, Skoropin, SU-130PM, ShPTK-TVP 100 etc.

[@HiTechOilCo]

@World of Tanks - So you create this video on view range and concealment, yet all the tanks in this video are not using camouflage paint which can make a significant increase to the concealment rating of a tank. Really? You are doing a huge disservice to anyone that doesn't know about camouflage paint, which means their tanks are going to get spotte much easier and blown up. This reduces gameplay for everyone in the game, which reduces the fun factor. A light scouting tank, (particularly), not using camouflage paint? You've got to be kidding! For crying out loud, get with the program!

[@OldDrunkWolf]

Nothing against it, but there is no point in playing passive spot today, first of all, not every map allows it, and the few where it can be applied, everyone shoots blindly into every bush. Then there is the EBR factor. Overall, LTs are almost dead these days, MTs don't have camo on the move, but they often have better visibility, speed, and on top of that, they have better cannon, armor, and HP.

2:04 - Not explaining that the extra view range works to counteract the concealment of enemy vehicles is a miss imo. Valuable information that could have easily been added and simply explained here without going into too much detail. 2:52 - nobody calls it x-ray, its proxy spotting. 4:15 - you mention tactical view, but proceed to highlight the setting for commander camera 4:25 - delivery of the sarcastic comment "magic shell" falls flat, resulting in the tin foil hat theorists like Claus genuinely believing it. Also, most enemies will move after being blind hit. Lastly on this point, who in their right mind blind fires an entire Foch clip. 5:16 - "only use repair and first aid kits when you only need max view range". Can't wait for new players to start ignoring dead drivers and loaders, or damaged ammo racks etc just because of this comment. Showing wheels as being destroyed as a "oh no, what if they break this and you've used your repair kit" moment is funny since its nowhere near as bad as being perma-tracked or ammo racked. 5:46 - once again showing a case of cola, but labelled chocolate. Make a mistake once, but twice? come on... you did this in the first video too... 6:"0 - Showing the final concealment values is great, but not showing the actual individual percentages that CVS affects the concealment by is kinda weird chief. 6:22 - "CVS... It decreases enemy concealment when on the move". Should rather be "further decreases enemy concealment" since opposing tanks that are not lights already have reduced concealment when moving.... 6:54 - not mentioning that there is a set amount of time you have to be stationary for before binos are active is misleading to newcomers/inexperienced players. 7:18 - Aint no way any high level player is wasting an equipment slot by running optics and binos... as opposed to just having 2 equipment setups with field mods. Speaking of which, no mention of field mods and how they can help with view range and concealment values + 2 loadout options is also a missed opportunity.
